“Carol has once again treated our yorki Gus great. Gus was a very happy dog with his stay. Carol sent us lots of pictures over the 3 weeks she had Gus. Carol is a great sitter and we will continue to use her when we travel. Thanks Carol for your services. Brent & Judy and happy Gus.”


“I am so happy I used Gina to watch my 2 chihuahuas while we were on vacation. I was nervous as I have never had them watched by someone they don't know yet. Gina sent me pictures and updates often, easing my mind. She has a huge yard so my pups got a lot of outside time and they got along with her 3 dogs and grandchildren so well! It was a pleasure having Gina watch our babies and we highly recommend her!”

“Katrina was wonderful with my dog Rusty. She took him for walks and provided regular updates and photos of how he was doing. I will seek out Katrina’s services again to watch my big dog.”

“Teresa was the best sitting for my dog! This is our second time having Teresa and she does the extras. Our dog recognized her place when we arrived and was very excited to be there. We are looking forward to our next visit.”

“This is our first time booking with Rover.com. Joseph and Tina were the care providers for Charlie and Murphy. We are very happy with the care and attention our boys received. Our dogs settled in well and seemed very content with the experience. Joseph and Tina have a great home and yard to accommodate larger dogs. They were very flexible and allowed time for the dogs to get oriented and comfortable. It is important for Charlie and Murphy to get ample exercise, which Joseph and Tina were more than happy to make happen. All in all it was a great experience. We will not hesitate to book with them again.”


“Gail took great care of my dog - she sent photos and updates throughout my dog's stay with her. It was clear to me that she prioritized my dog's safety and that she enjoyed spending time with my dog.”

“Jackie and Clyde were awesome! Jackie kept me up to date sending videos and pictures of their daily play and hikes. It was easy to see how much Jackie enjoys caring for pups and her pup Clyde loves having new friends to play with too. I had absolutely no worries or concerns while Ruger was with her. We will definitely use Jackie and Clyde again!”

“Chester had an awesome vacation with his new friend Paul. We were travelling from out of town so could not do a meet and greet. Paul and I met by phone and after discussing our needs I felt very confident in Paul. My main concern was how Chester would behave in someone else’s home. Paul was very relaxed and we could tell that he had Chester’s best interests at heart. Loved getting regular photos and newsy updates. I hope we have the opportunity to book Paul again.”

“We loved having Sarah here to look after our cat Hannie. When we got home Hannie was very happy and Sarah kept the house spotless. She really bonded with Hannie and we are so grateful to her for looking after our beloved pet for us for the Easter weekend. I .Highly recommend her to anyone who needs somebody who’s really loving to look after their beloved cat.”

“We recently eloped to Banff and wanted a safe place for our dog to spend while we got married. Tamara made sure Rawrey was taken care of and provided updates and pictures throughout the day/night. She also came straight to our hotel to pick her up which made it so convenient and accomodating. Would highly recommend her. :)”

“Brianne was wonderful taking care of my puppy for three nights. She gave updates everyday and was able to spend one on one time with her everyday. It was Harleys first time away from me and she had a great experience! I don’t hesitate to recommend Brianne for anyone’s fur babies ❤️”

About: I’m a born a dog lover 🐾 How much dogs mean to us? They’re more than dogs, they’re family members. I know how difficult it can be to find a safe and caring sitter, that’s where I come in :) My schedule is quite flexible right now and I am working mostly from my computer 3 days a week 9-5 at most. I’ve been really enjoying using Rover to make a bit of extra income in the side while I help my Mom with her farm & market business venture. That being said I might not always be available when you want me :( send me a message to see if I can help you out. 🐾 I take any special instructions seriously. I will only feed them what and when you’d like. I will socialize how much or how little you want them socialized. I generally only take one dog or one family at a time to ensure the most personalized care. Special circumstances I can take 2 dogs or 2 different families pets at a time. This is a farmstead and there are other dogs that live nearby but everyone gets along and is up to date vaccinated 🐾

Debbie was attentive and thoughtful, regularly sending me photos and videos, which gave me great peace of mind. I highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter.”

“Carly was fantastic! Our older cat was very well taken care of while we were away and hardly seemed to have missed us at all! We would definitely ask Carly to take care of our cat again.”

“I was so reluctant to use Rover but then I found Shelly! Now I’m reluctant to leave this review because I don’t want her to get too busy and not be available but she deserves a glowing reference from me. Shelly, is absolutely the best and I feel so blessed to have found her…she is experienced with all their meds, loving and reliable. I highly recommend her as a caregiver. A+++ (and I don’t leave this review lightly….I am very particular when it comes to my babies )”

“Marcella was fantastic! She took my little dog on short notice and I felt comfortable with her right away. Her home is beautiful, welcoming, and clearly set up with dogs in mind. Her dog Winston is incredibly sweet and friendly, and was great with my little guy from the moment they met. It’s obvious she genuinely loves dogs and has lots of experience with them. I wouldn’t hesitate to leave my pup with her again and will definitely be using her services in the future.”

“Absolutely lovely couple. Prompt, professional, and they very obviously love what they do. They'll be watching our dog over the holidays, so we'd set up some walks beforehand to get the dog comfortable with them. When he came home, I thought he was going to try to leave with them! Highly recommended.”
