“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!”
“Watson had a fantastic time with Maaya while we were away. She was able to look after him while he was recovering from an injury and sent us lots of photos, we would definetly rebook with her again and highly recommend her as a sitter!”
“We had a wonderful experience and would highly recommend Ursula! She took amazing care of our little Stanley over a weekend and kept us updated with photos and messages. It was clear that Stanley was happy , comfortable and well cared for. Thank you for your kindness and excellent care! Stanley misses you!”
“Jing was so nice and cheerful. My dog loves her even her kid. She will be the first person that I will contact if I need a sitter for Casper again. (hopefully she will be available) See you soon Jingjing.. My dog loves the toy that you gave him.”
“They took great care of Oscar! They sent lots of pictures and videos, and Oscar seemed very happy and comfortable. Oscar also got along very well with their dog Mina. I will definitely book again! Thank you :)”
“Sheryl has the perfect set up for watching your fur baby. Bear is an older dog with particular needs and I felt completely happy to leave her with Sheryl. Bear was well taken care of and I highly recommend choosing Sheryl. I can’t say enough good things.”
“Cooper the 14 year old bichon-poodle made himself right at home with Madison and her husband. I think he had a great time exploring a few new neighbourhoods and being an office dog for a day. I feel very rest assured that Cooper was in good hands.”
“Braden was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Furfur. Furfur was so relaxed and comfortable with Braden. Braden was also great at communication throughout, always responsive. Highly recommended!”
“I can’t say enough about how much we were pleased with Sandra’s service. It was our first time in 7 years leaving the dog with someone. My wife was extremely worried. But the first day we received a picture of Max (our dog) walking with kids to school, we realized he is fine, which allowed us to relax and actually enjoy our vacation. Sandra is very caring, responsible and just great. We were receiving pictures and short reports every day and in general the communication was very easy and prompt. Max had a great time as well, being in a company of kids and a centre of attention, we couldn’t find a better arrangement for our dog. And actually we think he misses them. Highly recommend!”
“I Left my 2 dogs with her for 11 days and she did amazing! She took such good care of them and I got lots of pictures and videos throughout their stay! I would definitely book with her again.”
“Loved Heather! She took such good care of my girl and treated her like one of the family. My dog felt so comfortable with them. Lovely photo updates of a very unphotogenic dog. Couldn't be happier.”
“Robert was fantastic with Nina! He sent us tons of photos and updates throughout her stay, and she looked like she was having the best time with him. We’ll definitely book with him again the next time we’re away ☺️”
“I am pretty sure this is Arjun’s first client order. I left my two cats with him for almost 18 days, unsure what it will end up with. . During the whole 18 days, he kept sending me the daily short videos of the cats, made me feel very comfortable knowing my cats are under good care. Upon my return, both cats are found peaceful and healthy and happy. Arjun went ahead bought some cat toys for my cats to plays with, and he even offered for me to take those toys home if I want. He is so sincere with a genuine good caring heart. He has a big dog and amazingly my cats stay in harmony with the dog as well. If I am away again, no doubt that I will be happily booking with Arjun again. Highly recommended. Bravo.”
“5 STARS!! Brenlee is so understanding and patient! She gave updates everyday and you can feel how much she cares for your furbaby. I will definitely be booking with Brenlee. I had a great vacation knowing that my pup was well taken care for.”
“You know your dog enjoys the sitter when she watches them walk away and won't move. Taenelle and Andrew were great housemates for Remy! Remy enjoyed hanging out with Andrew as he worked from home, I think she kept him on track and ensured he wasn't slacking off :-) I would highly recommend Taenelle and Andrew to look after you fur baby. You can tell they really enjoy spending time with dogs, they both were very communicative, and were so very welcoming when Remy and I went for a visit before boarding her. I will certainly use them again to look after Remy when I am away.”
“We had a great experience with Ash dog! They were reliable, caring, and kept us updated with photos and messages throughout our dog's stay. It was clear our pup was happy, well cared for, and got plenty of attention and exercise. We came home to a relaxed, happy dog, which gave us real peace of mind. We would definitely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter.”
“Olesia did a fantastic job taking care of Kudo. She was very accommodating in in dropoff and pickup schedules. I had no trouble keeping in touch with her and getting photos of my dog. Overall great experience!”

“Allison checked in daily to let me know our shy cat was eating, cleaned the litter and the inevitable hairball. She also put dirty litter and cat food cans outside so our home didn’t get stinky. We came home to a tidy space and I would recommend Allison and hire her in the future.”
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!
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
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
“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.”

“Jessica is amazing with my pup, Molly! She clearly loves dogs and takes such good care of her. Many walks during the day and reporting back to me with photos, which is very much appreciated. My dog is 12 lbs and adores her dog, Sheriff who is a 75 lb black lab. I don’t think Molly knows she’s small lol. I take her there once a week and I know she will have a fun filled day. I highly recommend Jessica as a caregiver for your pet - she’s great!”
“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 !”
About: I grew up with several cats and 3 German Shepherds in my family. Now I have 2 fur babies, a Corgi and a rescue dog - who I trained and raised from little puppies. But at the moment they're in Hong Kong with my parents as my current living + work situation in Vancouver doesn't quite allow for me to take close care of them in the way they deserve (apartment, a lot of travel etc.) I'm the primary sitter but my husband is an animal doctor so he's a great contact to have on hand! I run my own business and work from home, so my schedule is generally pretty flexible. I very much miss my dogs' company so I'd love to take care of yours when I'm available to! I'm able to come and stay for short stays with your pet - play, train, take them on walks as wanted and needed. I'm also more than happy to share lots of photos and keep in close contact when house-sitting.
“Brit and her husband took great care of our dog and sent us photos and updates throughout the evening which was really nice. We will definitely book with her again.”
“Alexi and Daryl were amazing with Mona! They gave me regular updates and it was clear they truly cared about her well-being. She came home happy and relaxed. Highly recommend!”
“Connie did a wonderful job looking after our dog, Aero. She willingly accommodated our last minute request. She was reliable and kept us updated with photos, which gave us peace of mind. We will definitely book with her again in the future! Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog sitter. 🐶💙💙”
“Kimira was fantastic! Very flexible and super accommodating. She sent us photos and updates throughout the day and our four year old pup was very happy when we picked him up from his day with her. We definitely recommend her!”
“Ana was so amazing with my anxious dog. She took the time to book a meet and greet prior to our first booking which was so greatly appreciated. My dog is not easy but Ana is so understanding and was not at all phased by Juno’s quirks. This gave me complete peace of mind which is so important to me. I feel totally confident that he is safe and happy in her care. Thank you, Ana!”
“Our dog Finn had a great stay with Jennifer and David! He’s an energetic pup who can sometimes be a handful, but Jennifer was so patient, caring and attentive right from the start. She took the time to fully understand his needs, asked all the right questions and made sure he felt comfortable and at home. They were great at communicating with us both before and during his stay which helped us enjoy our day knowing he was happy and cared for with lots of walks, play and attention. One of the best experiences we’ve had on Rover and we would love to have more visits again in the future!”
“Milo had such a great time! Thank you again, David, Fay, and Olivia, for taking such good care of him, it was lovely meeting you in person. We really appreciated the updates and photos throughout the day, they gave us so much peace of mind. He must’ve had an amazing time with the walk and all the play, he’s been totally zonked out since we got home 😅💤 Looking forward to the next visit. Thanks again for everything!”
“I am so grateful I found Shelley. After we did a pre-meet, Rex did a full 12 hour day with Shelley, and by the time Rex came home, he could barely keep his eyes open. She has a great space with lots of trail access behind. Seems like Rex had a great time and I will definitely be using Shelley’s service again! Thank you!”
“Amy took great care of my senior dog during a doggy care session. She was great at communication and provided updates while he was staying with her. I could tell my dog was very well looked after. I would fully recommend Amy to anyone looking for services on Rover.”
“Keetah was so great with my crazy dog! Such good communication - lots of updates and photos provided! Tucker already can’t wait to stay with her again (after a long nap). Would highly recommend!”
About: With over 5 years of hands-on experience helping care for my sister's fur baby and supporting friends with their pets, I've developed a deep understanding of what it takes to keep fur babies happy, healthy, and loved. I also volunteer with a local pet therapy organization, which has taught me the importance of patience, gentle care, and understanding each pet’s unique personality and needs. I'm currently home full-time, super flexible! Which means I can offer your pets the attention and care they deserve—whether you're at work or away on vacation. I understand that every dog has their own unique personality, so paying close attention to their behavior is very important during walks! My condo is also very pet-friendly, so please let me know if your pup is comfortable sharing the elevator with other fur babies.
“We have been very happy to have met Valerie to look after our Milo. She is kind and responsible and very good with him overall. We trust her fully and would highly recommend her.”
“Olive enjoyed going on walks with Sheryl and loved sitting outside on her beautiful patio! Sheryl has a lot of experience with older dogs and was very attentive to Olive’s needs. We appreciated all she did to make Olive’s first stay as comfortable as possible.”
“This was our first time using Rover and our 13-month-old teacup Maltipoo, Prince’s, first doggy daycare experience. As nervous pet parents, we weren’t sure what to expect. Prince is very tiny and can be a little shy, timid, and anxious, but Andrea and Sergio were very understanding of his needs and helped him get settled in and feel comfortable. They kept us updated throughout the day with photos, which gave us peace of mind. When we picked Prince up, Sergio took the time to answer our questions and share some helpful tips on socializing him. Prince had a great day, and we’ve already gone ahead and booked our next daycare visit. We would absolutely recommend Andrea and Sergio to anyone looking for knowledgeable, caring, and trustworthy dog sitters.”

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.
“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!

During the whole 18 days, he kept sending me the daily short videos of the cats, made me feel very comfortable knowing my cats are under good care. Upon my return, both cats are found peaceful and healthy and happy. Arjun went ahead bought some cat toys for my cats to plays with, and he even offered for me to take those toys home if I want.

If I am away again, no doubt that I will be happily booking with Arjun again. Highly recommended. Bravo.”
“Yumiko watched my dog for a few days while I was out of town, and I couldn’t have been happier with her care! She was very friendly, responsive, and attentive from the start. She took my dog on lots of walks and sent me daily updates and photos, which I really appreciated. My dog always looked so happy and comfortable in the photos! My dog can sometimes be nervous around other dogs, and Yumiko took the time to introduce them slowly, which went really well. It was clear she genuinely cares about dogs. I felt completely comfortable knowing my dog was in her care, and I would absolutely book with her again!”

“Thank you both for looking after Lexi for my vacation. I know she had a great time with you and had lots of walks by all the pictures and videos you sent. She appeared to get along well with your dog Daisy as the videos showed lots of playing. I would recommend you to anyone looking for overnight or long term boarding. Thank you so much for giving my little girl a safe place to stay!”
“Lisa is amazing! Charlie is an anxious pup, but I knew as soon as we met Lisa that he would be in good hands. Super knowledgable, got Charlie out for some great walks and cared for him like he was her own. Charlie will be very happy when he spends time with Lisa again in a few weeks🐾”
“You know your dog enjoys the sitter when she watches them walk away and won't move. Taenelle and Andrew were great housemates for Remy! Remy enjoyed hanging out with Andrew as he worked from home, I think she kept him on track and ensured he wasn't slacking off :-) I would highly recommend Taenelle and Andrew to look after you fur baby. You can tell they really enjoy spending time with dogs, they both were very communicative, and were so very welcoming when Remy and I went for a visit before boarding her. I will certainly use them again to look after Remy when I am away.”
“Lisa and Lonny were wonderful sitters for my girl, Lottie. Lottie is a little reactive and I was relieved to know they had experience with reactive pups before, and it went great! I received lots of photo updates and I came back home to a well-loved dog. Overall a great experience!”
“Tyler looked after Tori so well, and I am incredibly grateful! He was so kind throughout the whole time and gave Tori his full attention, which made me feel completely at ease. If I ever need a dog sitter again, I will absolutely choose Tyler without a doubt. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of Tori!”
“We had a great experience with Ash dog! They were reliable, caring, and kept us updated with photos and messages throughout our dog's stay.

We would definitely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter.”
“They are the best dog sitter we ever had. Very creditable people and they took care of my dog very carefully with love. Their dog, Domi is also a wonderful care giver. I highly recommend them to all the dog lovers.”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 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! 🐾❤️”
