Pet Sitting in Armstrong

“I am a new resident of the Northern Okanagan and prior to relocating when I would have a few days away from home I had family close by who would care for my cats, Norman and Lester. As typical when it is something new - I was excited that I found Debbie, but still a bit anxious at leaving the “boys” for an extended number of days. Well, I had nothing at all to worry about and I knew everything would be great when I met with the sitter and the cats came right over for hellos and pets. The daily snaps of both cats - looking at her as though they were looking at me - and being outside - which - thank you so much - was over and beyond what I had asked for and expected. I’ve been home an hour and both cats don’t care - they’ve had their attention needs taken care of by Debbie and I guess I’ll be the favourite again once the food dish is empty! Thank you so much Debbie for being so great!”

About: I’ve been on Rover for 4+ years and have become familiar with more dog breeds than I knew existed! I love getting to know each pup I watch and creating a bond with them:) I like to say its research for what breed will fit my life best in the future. I will love your dog as if it was my own💗 I have just started a 2 year massage program in Vernon. I am not working currently as I am focussing my time studying and school so Rover is perfect for me to help keep myself afloat while in school. I am home evenings and weekends. Hope we can make something work:) I have a safe indoor space with hardwood floors and no other pets to take my attention away from your sweet pup. Happy to work at your or my home

About: Hello, my name is Teresa and I'm dog walker who is Walks and Wags Certified with Pet First Aid. I've also taken International Academy of Canine Trainers Certified Professional Dog Walker program. I'm an animal lover and have had pets all of my life. I especially love dogs of all shapes and sizes and am looking forward to taking care of your dog either as a dog walker or just for home visits to play and make sure that he/she is fine while you are at work. I'm happy to visit both young puppers and more senior doggos - as we all know your dog is the 'best dog ever' and I'm happy to treat your dog like my own! Looking forward to meeting you and your pet! I work remotely so am happy to have your dog as company to my own two fur babies! My yard is fenced so there is no fear for them to run in our backyard. I allow pets on furniture but do make sure that their paws are clean and that they do not rough house in the house. As I am working at home I can monitor them as well.

“An absolutely fabulous cat sitter! Carly was great and I got regular updates showing that my kitty was thoroughly entertained. So happy to have met Carly and will be asking her for cat sitting during all my travels!”

About: Hi! My name is Natasha and I’ve taken care of animals for most of my life. I’m experienced in handling pets of all sizes and ages. Whether you have a puppy who needs a playdate or a senior cat who just needs a bit of company, I’m happy to help! I work part time and my hours are fairly flexible, so I’m available during most times of the day. I can do half an hour or hour long visits, whatever your pet needs! For drop in visits, I can travel anywhere from Vernon to Salmon Arm. I have lots of experience with cats and dogs, and I’m comfortable with exotic pets as well.

“We appreciated Cheyanne’s prompt communication, timely arriving and loving care of our fur-kids. She was easy to work with and obviously connected well with our pups. Thanks so much. If we’re ever in need again on future travels, we’ll keep an eye out for her!”

About: I was raised on a farm with everything from chickens to giant Kangal dogs. Animal care has been a big part of my life. Both of my own dogs I have rescued and hand fed from birth. I have experience caring for reptiles, cats, puppies, large/small dog breeds and rabbits. I’ve spent the last few years caring for Armstrong friends’ and families’ farm animals and pets and I would love to do the same for you! I am available early mornings and evenings to help care for your furry friend. I can do walking lengths depending on your dog’s energy expenditure needs. I try to stick to the exact same routine that the pet(s) are used to from their owner (ie. direction of walks and walking style). I find this makes the animal the most comfortable with me and more likely to enjoy my company.

“Laura was an amazing pet sitter for our cat. She got to know our kitty and spent time getting him to open up to her. It gave us peace of mind while on vacation that Laura was checking in. We returned to a happy cat :)”

“Morgan was great! Came on fairly short notice, listened to all instructions, and I will definitely be using her again for drop in visits to our little kitty. Thanks Morgan!”

About: Hi, I’m Kathleen! I’m an animal lover through and through, and I’d be so happy to help care for your pets as if they were my own. I have experience with dogs and cats and I know how important it is to feel confident that your furry family member is safe, loved, and well taken care of while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or just keeping up with their daily routine, I’ll make sure your pet feels comfortable and happy. I’m responsible, reliable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals of all kinds. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! 🐾 I have a lot of free time at the moment so I can be flexible! I wake up pretty early and I am available week days and week-ends! While I don’t have a fenced yard, I always supervise outdoor play closely and make sure pets stay safe. I take dogs on at least three walks a day and love going to the nearby dog park for exercise and social time. Your dog will be well cared for and never left unattended outside.

“We asked Megan to drop-in on our two cats while we were away visiting family and she did an awesome job. We’ll definitely be calling her again in the future.”

About: Hi, I’m Cierra! A calm, reliable dog lover who your pup will probably adopt as their new best friend. I work primarily from home and regularly house sit, so your dog gets plenty of company, attention, and consistency throughout the day. I average 10–15k steps daily, which means I love having a walking buddy. Whether your dog needs long adventures, short sniff sniff walks, or structured outings to burn off energy, I’m here for it all! I genuinely care about animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities. From puppies with the dickens to wise seniors. I follow routines closely, understand unique quirks, and make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and understood while you’re away. If your dog needs someone patient, present, and truly invested in their happiness, I’d love to be their second favourite human. I primarily work from home, which means your pets enjoy a consistent, reliable presence throughout the day. I’m able to follow your schedule closely, feeding times, walks, play sessions, medications, crate routines, bedtime rituals, or quiet time. I average 10–15k steps a day, so if your dog loves long walks or needs structured exercise, they’ll always get the activity they’re used to. For cats, I keep their routines steady and predictable, from meal prep to litter care to enrichment time at their own pace. I’m flexible with timing, mindful of energy levels, and happy to adapt to whatever rhythm your pet thrives on. Your schedule becomes our schedule, ensuring your animals stay grounded and comfortable while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my first priority. I take the responsibility of being in your home, and caring for your animals, very seriously. I follow your instructions closely, keep routines consistent, and pay attention to the small details that keep pets feeling secure. Whether your animal needs slow introductions, careful monitoring, medication, or just someone grounded and calm in the house, I make sure they’re cared for with the same level of attention I give my own pets. I’m respectful of your space, your boundaries, and your pet’s boundaries. You can expect clear communication and regular updates, so you’re never left wondering how things are going. My goal is to create a peaceful, safe environment where your pets feel comfortable, understood, and stress free while you’re away.

“We can’t thank Scott enough for taking such great care of our Samoyed dog while we were on vacation in Vernon. His calm, caring nature put us at ease right away, and it was clear Sambal felt the same. Scott was dependable, communicative, and friendly. Sambal is a big dog and a bit of a puller, but Scott went above and beyond to make sure he was happy, exercised, and loved. Thanks to him, we were able to truly unwind knowing our pup was in such capable hands. He also gave us helpful suggestions about places to visit in the area! We would definitely go for him again if we need someone to care for our dog in Vernon. If you’re looking for someone you can trust with your furry family member, Scott’s your guy!”

About: 🐾 What Sets Me Apart 🐾 I have had pets my whole life. Since I was a young child. We always had dogs, cats, chickens, hamsters and fish. I loved taking care of them but since getting older I have not had a chance to have my own as I generally am in rentals that don't allow pets so I love to look after others when they are away. I treat every pet like my own, catering to their unique needs, routines and quirks. I am experienced & trustworthy – I have years of experience with dogs & cats of all sizes, breeds and temperaments. Clients often call me the pet whisperer as their pet comes to me willingly when they might not with others because of my calm, gentle and grounded personality. As a trauma recovery coach specializing in nervous system regulation, I create a soothing and safe environment for pets, especially anxious or rescue animals. I take your dogs on engaging walks, engage in interactive play with your pets and give mindful attention to their well-being, not just basic care. I am flexible & reliable – I work around your schedule to ensure stress-free pet care. I work from home as I am a Trauma Recovery Coach so I see my clients online. I generally help clients regulate their nervous system or give them mindfulness practices. So I am often doing meditations with them or calming sessions with them. I take breaks in between clients and go for walks so can be sure to give your pet the extra attention it needs. I generally go to your home to take care of your pet. I do have a yard with a fence right now though which is helpful.

About: Dogs have been a part of my life for about 15 years. I grew up with 2 part German shepherds/Huskies with my family, and now have a beautiful Bernese mountain dog of my own who I love to pieces. Whether you need a vacation, a couple of hours of sitting, or just to take your pooch for a walk, I'm your girl! I'm currently working a casual but full time job. My hours are all over the place so depending on the day, I could do either days or nights if I'm in town. Which I am the majority of the time. If my calendar says I'm unavailable, I set it as a default as my current job is based on a day to day basis. So I still may be available depending on the day! I have a fenced yard, and there is also an enclosed dog park very close by, as well as a beach if your pup loves to swim. I also have a full grown Bernese who loves to meet new friends

“Shelley is a literal earth angel who truly loves animals deeply. Every check in update was detailed and also made me giggle as she really got to know my cats personalities haha this was my first role using Rover and I’m so glad I found Shelley on here! Hired her for while we were gone during our wedding weekend and felt completely at ease with trusting her to tend to the house hold ! (And medicating one kitty with no fus) will book again for future travels !!”

About: 🐾 About Me Hi there! I’ve had dogs by my side my whole life—from energetic puppies to gentle seniors. I’ve personally trained all of my dogs and have even helped friends with training and grooming, including working with a pit bull who made amazing progress in just a few days. I don’t just like animals—I truly adore them. I take the time to understand each pet’s unique personality, needs, and quirks. I’ll always respect your rules and routines, and if you’d like, I can help reinforce basic training and manners during their stay. My home has a fully fenced 1/3-acre yard where your dog can safely run, sniff, and play. Whether they love fetch or prefer cozy cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet your furry best friend! ❤️ I am passionate and excited about animals. I genuinely enjoy pet care, so I’m hoping to make pet care more permanent and leave the health care field. I have a fenced yard with lots of green grass to run full speed on or find a shady spot and relax. My dogs are 7lbs, 19lbs and 25lbs… they’re full of energy and love having friends over.
