“Jessica was incredibly caring, patient, and understanding with our shy dog, Sawyer. She knew exactly how to help him feel comfortable and at home during his overnight stay. Sawyer got lots of exercise, had a great time playing, and came home happy and relaxed. Jessica also sent us photos and updates throughout his stay, which we really appreciated and made us feel at ease. I would highly recommend Jessica to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their furry family member!”
“Lakota has stayed with several sitters around the country through Rover and this is the 1st time I have received pictures and videos of him "HAPPY". These sitters are amazing, very attentative, and truly care for the pups that come into their lives if only for a few days. Thank you so much!!!”
“Michael and Jim recently looked after my dog Benny for 5 days and I couldn’t be happier with their care and attention. Prior to dropping Benny for his stay, we went for a meet and greet at their home which was clean and cozy. We met their dog Yogi who was very cuddly, calm and got along great with my dog. They made me feel very comfortable leaving Benny in their care while I was out of town with no cell service. While I was gone, I received constant updates and photos, Benny was taken out numerous times a day, had plenty of walks, treats, cuddles and fun with them. I would not hesitate to see if they are available to watch Benny again. Highly recommend. Thank you all for welcoming Benny into your home like he was your own.”
“We were so happy with Sheryl's care of Lulu. She was obviously very attentive, and Lulu had plenty of walks, socializing and cuddles! We were afraid Lulu would prefer Sheryl to us! We also appreciated updates on their time together and photos. Would definitely rebook :)”

“It was our first time leaving our dog for 3 days, and we honestly couldn’t be more grateful to have left her with Connie. Her schedule was followed and she got so much attention, treats, and love, especially during playtime with her dogs, cats, and family! We felt very at ease the whole time we were away knowing she was in such good hands.”
“Angela and her family were wonderful taking care of Manolo. He was clearly well looked after and comfortable during his stay. Communication was great, and we felt very confident leaving him with them. We would absolutely consider Angela and her family again for any future needs and highly recommend them. Thank you Angela, you guys are great! :)”

About: Caring for animals has been a part of my life since childhood, and cats have always held a special place in my heart. I’ve owned pets since I was 7 and spent 15 years working in veterinary clinics and at the SPCA, gaining hands-on experience with cats of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs. Before having children, I also ran my own pet-sitting service, providing reliable, compassionate in-home care. I’m now a marine biologist, but my love for animal care has never changed. I can offer calm, reliable visits for your cat while you are away with additional play time if required. I am comfortable administering medications as well!
“My cat was healthy and happy when I returned from my trip - in fact, I think he missed Allison. Allison was thoughtful and reliable, and helped with some small but important things around the house as well. Great job!”
“Cass was really wonderful with our cats. She was thorough in her care of them and sent photos and videos to show they were all good and that tasks like food and water and litters were being completed. She was really sweet and talked to our cats in a calming way when they were a bit stressed in the videos. Made us feel very confident that they were in good hands :) would highly recommend Cass!”
About: I have extensive experience caring for cats, including seniors and more independent or shy personalities. I am comfortable with feeding routines, litter box care, medication if required, and providing companionship on the cat’s terms. I understand that cats often need consistency and a calm environment, and I take care to respect their routines and boundaries.
About: I love animals and feel having a dog/cat lover is best care for your pet. To stay in their own home where it’s their domain Lots of playtime and walks. I had pets but prefer not to now as I enjoy the freedom of travel, but feel fulfilled caring for animals. Pets need attention and love when their owners go away it’s best they still feel that love and attention. I’m at stage in my life I have time for caring for pets. I have retired and moved to the coast and am available to come to your home to look after them in an environment they know. I administer medicine and keep the home tidy as your away Ive done several house sitting jobs for a week with larger dogs and would be happy to be with your pet while you are away. We can discuss your needs and happily accommodate your fur baby I am retired and have a very flexible schedule to accommodate whatever you let care needs would be. I love you be outdoors and on hikes in nature with the pets I respect personal homes of my clients and follow requests for any care for pets thoroughly. I like to frequently communicate while owner is away with pics and updates of their pet
“We highly recommend Amber and look forward to having her sit for us again. She took great care of our two Bengals and was so respectful of our home, you'd never even know she was there. Sincere appreciation to a great cat/house sitter.”
About: Animals mean the world to me. I grew up with Pure Breed Bouvier dogs, Persian and Himalayan cats. I was no "stranger" to cleaning dog runs, bathing, brushing and combing their fur. As well as, assisting with their oral hygiene. I truly feel in my heart that all animals need love, compassion, companionship, guidance, comfort, and assistance. They are our family!! Whenever you look into an animal's eyes you can see deep within their soul and spirit. It's an incredible and amazing feeling. Animals, give us their complete vulnerability and as pet owners/family, we are supposed to: * Protect, nourish, and love them*. I am here to: "take away" your worries, your stress, and your anxiety! I am professional and compassionate. I am here for you and your "Furbabes". Thank You Natalie

“Jessica was great! Our little guy came home very happy. He even pulled us towards her house when we were on our evening walk a couple of nights after his stay with her. 🤣”
About: Lifelong Animal Lover with a Safe, Calm Home I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs and animals my whole life, and caring for them has always been second nature. From playful pups to senior companions, I understand the attention, patience, and love each pet needs. I’m very active and enjoy taking dogs on long walks, play sessions in the yard, or just relaxing with them if that’s more their style. My home is safe, quiet, and welcoming—an ideal place for pets to feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s cuddles on the couch or outdoor adventures, your pet will be treated like family. Working from home allows me to give pets the attention and care they deserve throughout the day. Whether it’s morning walks, midday playtime, or just having a calm, reassuring presence nearby, I’m able to incorporate their needs seamlessly into my routine. I take regular breaks, which are perfect for cuddle sessions or bathroom breaks, and I always make sure pets feel included, seen, and safe. Your pet won’t be left alone or ignored—they’ll be part of my peaceful, pet-friendly home life. When it comes to pet sitting, I know how important it is for pet owners to feel completely confident in the care their pet is receiving. I build trust through consistent communication, timely updates, and lots of photos so you always know how your pet is doing. I stick to your preferred schedule and follow the care plan carefully—whether it’s feeding, medication, walks, or routines your pet is used to. I take time to understand each pet’s unique personality and needs, creating a safe and comforting environment. Whether your pet is shy, energetic, or needs a little extra attention, you can count on me to be attentive, respectful, and reliable.
“This was Bogie's second visit to Deborah's home. He left out of the car and dashed into her yard as fast as he could leaving me in the dust. Clearly he couldn't wait to spend more time with his new friend.”
“Amy was SOOO accomodating! And just a friendly and caring person overall. It was my first time using a pet sitter while on a road trip to Ucluelet and I decided to try squeeze in some whale watching. Amy accepted Zoey with 1 nights notice and even accomodated an earlier drop-off because I forgot to account for the 45min check-in time for the excursion. Amy sent text & pic updates. Zoey was very well taken care of & even got to enjoy an oceanside walk. :)”
“This was my first time using Rover and also the first time sending my 6month puppy to full-day care and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Menghan was absolutely wonderful. She patiently answered all my questions beforehand and sent me lots of cute pictures and videos throughout the day to keep me updated. My pup had an amazing time in her care, and it was such a treat for her to have access to such a spacious yard to play in, since we live in an apartment. It’s clear my pup adores Menghan, and I feel completely confident leaving her in such kind and capable hands again.”
“Our puppy has had the pleasure of being in Tosha's care for countless times. She is very caring and playful with Stetson. Tosha is always my first call for sitting and daycare.”
“This was my first time using Rover and booking a sitter with whom my dog was unfamiliar. We were both nervous! But, everything went swimmingly. I received updates throughout the day, with pictures, from which I could see Ruthie was being well cared for. I will certainly book these sitters again!”
“I used Lisa for both dog walking and day care services. I have a small Pomeranian who is only 7 months old and usually comes everywhere with me, so I was anxious leaving him. Lisa sent me numerous video/photo updates and Freddie looked like he had lots of fun.”
“Irene is absolutely wonderful! My puppy, Wiggle, has separation anxiety and I was nervous leaving her with someone new, but Irene took everything at her pace and made her feel completely at ease from day one. She kept me updated with photos and messages throughout the day, used a double leash as an extra precaution without me even asking, and took Wiggle on the most amazing adventure, Jericho, the duck pond, the beach, and shady walks to keep her comfortable. By the end of the day, Wiggle was happily snoozing on Irene’s couch. That says it all! We will definitely be back.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience for Amber. Jennifer and David took such wonderful care of her and kept us updated with regular check-ins, which we really appreciated. It meant so much to know Amber felt comfortable enough to be herself. They treated her like family, and Ruby is an absolute sweetheart. We highly recommend Jennifer and David and will definitely be booking again in the future. 🐶✨”
“We're so glad to know Durley who is very warm & caring person. Joy looks very comfortable with her & Morita 😀. And we really appreciate Durley for caring Joy in the busiest season of the year !”
“Angela provided excellent comfort and care for Tater. The extra walks for a short stay were great and Angela’s calm demeanour was so good for Tater. We will be back!”
“Jinju took wonderful care of our pup Sienna while I was at work for the day. Communication was quick and easy and the follow-up was great to see how Sienna spend her day. Jinju was thoughtful, caring, and responsive - we would definitely recommend Jinju and would easily book in again.”
“We had such a great experience! She was super responsive and always got back to me really quickly. She was also very flexible with the drop-off time, which I really appreciated. She took Archie to the dog park and sent me lots of pictures and updates throughout his stay. She kept me posted on what he ate, when and how much, and what he was up to — whether he was playing, relaxing, or going to sleep. It really gave me peace of mind knowing how he was doing. Archie looked like he had a great time and was very well taken care of. Totally recommend her!”

About: Caring for animals has been a part of my life since childhood. I’ve owned dogs since I was 7 and spent 15 years working hands-on in veterinary clinics, as well as at shelters, gaining experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and needs. Before having children, I also ran my own pet-sitting service, caring for pets as if they were my own. I’m now a marine biologist who primarily works from home, but my love for animal care has never changed. Your dog will share our home with Sheriff, my very friendly black Lab, and my two young children, who love helping give extra attention and cuddles. Between playtime, walks, and lots of love, I’ll make sure your dog has plenty of fun and feels right at home. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine and is a central part of our home life. I work from home , which allows me to be present throughout the day for feeding, playtime, walks, pats, and monitoring each pet’s comfort and wellbeing. My days are structured but flexible, with plenty of one-on-one attention, enrichment, and downtime. Whether it’s daily check-ins, extended stays, or extra cuddles, caring for pets is something I truly enjoy and prioritize every day of the week. I care for pets as if they were my own, focusing on safety, comfort, and maintaining their normal routine as much as possible. With 15 years of experience working in veterinary clinics and shelters, I’m comfortable administering medications, monitoring health, and recognizing changes in behavior or wellbeing. In my home, pets enjoy a clean, calm, and spacious environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and enrichment throughout the day. I follow each pet’s feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any special instructions provided. Pets are never left alone for long periods and are supervised to ensure they feel secure and relaxed. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of both the pet’s space and the household. I provide reliable visits for feeding, walks, litter care, playtime, and companionship, while keeping routines consistent to reduce stress. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for.
About: I have loved having fur family in my life for 35 years. We shared our love with many cats over the years, 3 brothers when we couldn’t separate the brothers when we went to rescue a cat from the SPCA,… and have been blessed to enjoy 16 wonderful years sharing our love with our beloved Lucy, a yellow lab that loved long walks at Bonniebrook daily. We now enjoy sharing our love with a Mexican rescue who is now 7. As an artist I have also shared my passion and love for animals through my art, creating memory works for many friends, family and others. I will be the sole caretaker of your pet and look forward to getting to know your fur family and bringing them joy when you are not around to do so. I’m currently semi retired and only working sporadic work and mostly work from home so I’m free to share my time with your loved fur family As our current dog is a rescue with high anxiety, I would avoid bringing dogs into our home as it would create unneeded stress on our dog. I love to sit with them closely but understand that some animals need their own space.
“Olivia was wonderful! You could really tell she loves animals! She was patient and kind with my timid dog Bunny and really took the time to get to know both dogs before taking them out. I will most definitely be using her services again!! ?”
About: I've taken care of friends and families pets for over 10 years and have always enjoyed time spent outside, particularly dog walking! I'm looking to grow my expertise and experience while spending time with new furry friends! I am currently working on the Sunshine Coast over the summer and looking for some extra walk time outside my work, so I can be relatively flexible outside the hours of my full time job. As long as it fits it around work, I am happy to get out in the mornings or evenings!! Unfortunately, due to my current living conditions I cannot have pets in my home but will be more than happy to spend time with your pets outside.
“Deborah was great with my puppy! She spent extra time getting to know my puppy as it was their first meet up. She was punctual, great at communicating and responding quickly, and followed instructions perfectly. I felt very comfortable leaving my puppy in her care and will be requesting her services in the future!”
About: Responsible, compassionate, middle-aged- chill vibe. I have done temp. care for ponies, horses and cared for my own cats, dogs, hamsters, rabbits and tropical fish! Currently I'm very open, time-wise. I'm a student and working part time so lots of flexibility. Looking forward to discussing your and fur baby needs. I like clear instructions of what pets are used to and expect. I also like to know how they are used to interacting outside of the home. (on leash, off leash, good with others). Most pets like routine and I like to help maintain that sense of safety for them. :)
About: I’ve been a dog lover and owner my entire life. Since moving out to Squamish I have been without my pups and I miss having those little balls of joy running around me all the time. I would love to care for your pups like they’re my own and give them all the love and attention they deserve. I am very comfortable with dogs of all kinds and have done multiple training sessions with my own dogs so I am aware of how to handle different situations. I have also previously participated in a dog enrichment program with the Edmonton Humane Society which was so fulfilling and educational. I hope to take all my knowledge and experience and use it towards helping you and your dogs live happy and healthy lives. I currently work full time from home Monday-Friday so getting outside for a walk during the day is a nice refreshment for me. Working from home also gives me the flexibility to watch your dog in the comfort of your home if you require longer duration dog sitting. I am happy to come into your home to spend time with your pup so that they are most comfortable and follow any house rules that you have set. I am also happy to just play with them in your backyard or take them out for a walk, whatever you prefer!

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We couldn’t have asked for a better first boarding experience for Paco! This was his first time ever being away from us for 3 nights, and Lara made the entire experience so much easier. Paco was happy, well cared for, and absolutely loved his walks. One thing that meant a lot to us was knowing that Lara let Paco cuddle up with her at night, helping him feel safe and comfortable while away from home. Lara was also very accommodating when we wanted to visit him and take him out for a few hours during his stay. We’re so grateful for the love, care, and attention Lara gave Paco. We would absolutely trust her with him again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter! 🐾❤️”

She seemed like she didn’t want to come home when I went to pick her up. She had lots of walks and off leash park time and playing in the yard; lots of cuddle time it seems. She even took to Jim, Terry’s husband right away- not one bark. It was an awesome experience for both of us. Thank you Terry for taking such great care of our Maggie ❤️ we’ll be back soon!”
“Despite the late hour, thank you so much for responding and helping us on such short notice. Zhikun and his family handled my three dogs calmly and skillfully, making me feel at ease from the very beginning. They took great care of them with regular walks, and on the last day, they even gave them a shower and sent them home with a thoughtful gift, which I truly appreciated. Zhikun also runs a pet shop, which further reassured me of his experience and reliability. I’m very grateful for the care they provided and would highly recommend them.”

We would definitely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter.”
