“This was the first time I’ve left my Havanese dog with a pet sitter. He is a bit of a challenge as he suffers from anxiety and has to have medication for a heart murmur. The first time I met Sheryl all my worry about leaving him was gone. Beemer took to her right away. Sheryl sent updates every day about how Beemer was doing which helped me completely relax and enjoy my holiday. It is so wonderful to know I can go away again and I won’t have to worry about finding someone to look after him. I highly recommend Sheryl if you want a kind and loving sitter for your dog.”
“Thanks Michael and Jim, for taking such good care of Leo! We could tell from all the photos you sent how happy and relaxed he was with you, and appreciate all the walks and cuddles you gave him. We look forward to having him stay with you again soon!”
“I just completed my second booking with Samira for my cat, Nono, and I honestly couldn't be happier. Finding someone you can trust with your pet is always a challenge, but Samira has officially become my go-to sitter. What I appreciate most is her consistency. Just like the first time, she was incredibly professional, followed all of Nono's specific feeding and play instructions perfectly, and kept me updated throughout the entire stay. She sends the best photo updates, which always makes me feel like I’m right there with him. It’s clear that Nono has grown comfortable with her, which gives me so much peace of mind while I’m away. He’s usually a bit particular, but he warmed up to her quickly, and seeing him relaxed in her care is the best endorsement I could ask for. If you are looking for someone who is responsible, communicative, and truly an animal lover, Samira is the one. I will definitely be booking her for a third time and beyond!”
“Jo-Ann and Lance took such great care of our pup Otis and sent us plenty of pictures and updates, which was greatly appreciated! Otis looked to be having the time of his life getting so much attention and belly rubs🥰 will definitely be booking again!😊”
“Emily was a fantastic sitter for our Aussie Shepherd, Mav! She was communicative and made sure that we were updated with photos and messages throughout Mav’s stay. She took Mav on plenty of walks, fetch sessions, and it was obvious that he was having a great time. The convenience of pick-up and drop-off was a huge plus, and it really showed how much Emily cared about making things easy for everyone. I highly recommend Emily for anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”
“My and Tim's experience with Braden was fantastic. Tim was happy and relaxed when I picked him up. Braden was quick to respond, and sent updates on how Tim was doing. I definitely will be reaching to Braden again next time I'm going out of town. Thanks!”
“Jennifer and David graciously agreed to our last minute request for an eight day boarding stay for Murphy, our chocolate lab. They sent us frequent updates and pictures of Murph enjoying his stay and he looked right at home when we picked him up. Thank you so much for taking such great care of our baby boy!! We will book with you again for our next trip.”
“Tippy had a fantastic stay with Setayesh! She sent lots of photos and they clearly had a great day together :) Tippy can be nervous around new people but he instantly was at ease”
“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 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! 🐾❤️”
“Rui was wonderful and very attentive with our dog. She gave us regular updates with pictures and texts of our dog during the stay. We were very happy with her care of our dog during our time away and we will definitely contact her again for future dog sits. Thank you very much Rui!”
“I was very happy to trust Anna with taking care of Ginny. She communicated well, was flexible and understood what made my dog feel safe and comfortable. We will be coming back!”
“Joanna was wonderful!! She took such great care of our FOMO guy Goose, and sent amazing updates. He had such a blast with her: some great play with new friends, good snacks, fun pack walks, and lots of good down time to relax. Thanks for having Goose 🐾 and I’m sure he’s already looking forward to next time!”
“Jie was an excellent choice! Our dog needed extra care and attention due to a recent surgery. Jie send regular updates and pictures. Most importantly our dog came back happy. Looking forward to rebooking with Jie again.”
“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 :)”
“Mocha boarded with Nazanin over 5 nights for the first time and we couldn’t be more happier with her service. She’s detail oriented, communicative and took care of Mocha like her own furry daughter. We are very grateful.”

“We couldn’t be happier with the care Mehri provided for our two kitties during our 19-day holiday! From start to finish, Mehri went above and beyond to ensure our furry family members were happy, healthy, and well cared for. Each day, Mehri kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear from the updates that our kitties adored her—relaxed, playful, and completely at ease. She not only took care of their basic needs like feeding and cleaning, but also spent quality time playing and petting with them, ensuring they felt loved in our absence. When we returned, we found two content and healthy kitties! Mehri’s attention to detail, genuine love for animals, and reliable communication made this the best pet-sitting experience we’ve ever had. We wholeheartedly recommend Mehri to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate caregiver for their pets. She truly treats them as if they were her own. Thank you, Mehri, for taking such amazing care of our fur babies!”

“Britney was great; responsive, professional and down to earth. It only took one visit and our cat warmed up to her. She was patient and let our cat come to her. Our cat is elderly and Britney was comfortable with her medication and special care.”
“Lyndsey was an excellent cat sitter and we highly recommend her. Our cat kept on asking us when he could go back with her again because judging by the pictures he had a great time with Lyndsey’s cats :)”
“It was our 1st time having lily as our cat sitter and she was great. She took the time to stop by before we left to meet with our cat, which was really appreciated.

Perfect for high energy dogs - North Vancouver
Prices are estimates per day for 1 dog. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
“Jennifer and David were both very caring with our dog, Lucy. Lucy can be a bit anxious when meeting new people and other dogs and from the first introduction I felt they were a good fit for us. They were very sensitive and wanted to know what might be the best way to bring their dog Ruby out to meet Lucy. The introduction went great and when I later dropped Lucy off for daycare and she was feeling overwhelmed, Jennifer was quick to respond to her needs, helping her calm down with a walk. I left knowing Lucy was in good hands and the sweet pictures she sent me throughout the day showing Lucy cuddled up with her and David confirmed just that. I’ll definitely use their services again and would highly recommend them, especially if your dog struggles with anxiety or any other special need.”
“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.”
“Setayesh did an absolutely amazing job as my dog sitter! I couldn’t have been happier leaving my 7 month old puppy, Leo, in her care. She went above and beyond to ensure Leo was safe, happy, and comfortable throughout the entire time. What truly stood out was how frequently she updated me with photos and videos of Leo, which was so reassuring. It was clear that Leo was in great hands and having a wonderful time. Her attention to detail, care, and love for animals shone through in everything she did. Knowing that Leo was being well taken care of gave me complete peace of mind. I would highly recommend Setayesh to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional dog sitter. Thank you, Setayesh, for taking such great care of my pup! 🐾😊 Certainly will see you again.”

“Nazanin is a wonderful dog sitter! She is very friendly and has great communication, professionalism, and an obvious love for animals.

“Joanna took such great care of our energetic bundle of love, Penny. She sent lots of photos, videos and updates which was nice as this was our first time using Rover and didn’t really know what to expect. Would highly recommend Joanna. Thanks so much!”
“We are so glad to have found them. We had a hard time looking for dog daycare due to our dog's breed. We've booked them at a short notice and they were quick to respond. The Guy and Zol are knowledgeable with dogs. We were surprised that our fur baby easily warmed up when he saw them. We highly recommend Guy and Zol. We'll get their services on our next trip to BC.”
“Otto and Toby had a great time with Yoonjoo. She is very sweet with small dogs and my two little dogs look so happy from the second time we went to her. I will definitely leave my dog with Yoonjoo next time I need to.”

“Ivan and Niamh are lovely and sweet to Arlo. I feel lucky to have found them. I got a great feeling from the moment we met. They are great communicators and offered ways to reassure me that it would be okay, as I am new to Rover and was feeling a little anxious about it all. I will continue to use them for walking Arlo and would certainly use them for boarding too. Arlo is a happy boy when he is out walking with them :)”
“Robin was amazing! It was obvious from the moment she met my pup sparrow that she has a level of empathy and compassion for animals that is hard to beat! Highly recommend if you are looking for someone with a good heart and welcoming presence! Sparrow will be walking with her again 100%”
“Mehri (the dog walker) has been a Godsend! I sometimes need to change the booking if either my dog (Okey-Dokey) or I am sick. We both have chronic illnesses that can change on a time so even 24 hours notice is not always adequate. For this walk in particular I (Jasmine ) changed the time at the last minute as both my dog and I were suddenly sick. Mehri was kind and gracious enough to still walk him despite my staying in bed sick. My dog was sick and I had given him meds before his walk but it took effect when they’d returned. Mehri was so concerned she stayed at my home with him after the walk to ensure that he was well. She only left when she realized that he just wanted to sleep the meds off but was otherwise ok. How wonderful to know we can have this kind of dedication!”
About: I have always loved dogs - big, small, old, and young! Growing up, my family had a Havanese and she was the perfect little dog.

I am an elementary school teacher, so I have lots of availability in the Summer months to walk or spend time with your pet!

“Alex has become our go to dog walker as he's been nothing short of amazing with our dog, Bandit. He's always punctual and quite literally goes the extra mile to ensure that Bandit has enough exercise rain or shine. We had stopped using Rover because we had inconsistent experiences in the past on the platform but Alex has given us renewed trust and we can't recommend him enough. Thank you Alex for everything, Bandit can't wait for his next adventure with you!”
“Angela was very accommodating to my booking request and arrived on time. My dog Olive seemed to be comfortable with her right away. Highly recommend and would definitely use her again in the future!”

About: I've always had a doggo to take care of since I was young. From Sasha (a shih tzu until I was 5), to Jazz (a springer spaniel when I was 6-18), to Charlie (a german shepherd from 22 for 10 years). Dogs have always been a part of my life and now I'm lucky enough to take care of friends, family and anyone's cats or dogs while they're away! Pets have always been drawn towards me and I never take them for granted, figuring out their personalities, schedules, quirks and what makes them happy, makes me happy. I work full-time - 4 days in office, 1 day from home however I can typically accommodate as the pet needs depending on their schedule. When I have your pet, I will do my best to work my schedule around them! I am slightly a clean freak so my house is always tidy, clean blankets on the couch incase of muddy paws or hairy pets. I live in an apartment but live very close to parks to take dogs for a walk/throw a ball.
“Incredibly patient and very good at ensuring my puppy didn't terrorize the entire walk! Xinhong provided photos and contextual updates during and after the walk, which I really appreciated. Thank you so much, it helped me a ton this week! I would strongly recommend :)”

About: I've had dogs and cats in my life since I was a young child and still today can't pass a dog on the street without stopping to say hi! My most recent dog was a Goldendoodle who loved people and loved being in the water every chance possible! She was with us for over 15 years and spent much time swimming or hiking on the local trails. Today I also dog-sit or walk friends and neighbours dogs as much as possible. I retired early from corporate life and now fill my days with more interesting adventures. I spend a lot of time walking and my schedule during the days is usually very flexible. We live in a spacious townhouse with multiple enclosed outdoor spaces. We are surrounded by forest with endless walking trails and play areas! Dogs in our home are treated like part of our family, but always respecting the routines you have established for them already. We have a fenced in patio area and lots of other dogs in the neighbourhood.

“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 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! 🐾❤️”
“Joanna was wonderful!! She took such great care of our FOMO guy Goose, and sent amazing updates. He had such a blast with her: some great play with new friends, good snacks, fun pack walks, and lots of good down time to relax. Thanks for having Goose 🐾 and I’m sure he’s already looking forward to next time!”

“Zaid was so easy to communicate with during the boarding booking process. Immediately when my frenchie Fitzy and I met him we felt at ease. Fitzy is a nervous Frenchie and Zaid was very calming and sweet with him. He sent lots of pictures a s updates during his stay. Will definitely use him again! Thanks Zaid!”
“Ana Paula was absolutely incredible with my dog, Duke. She sent thoughtful photo and message updates that gave me total peace of mind knowing he was in the best hands. Duke and her dog Molly became quick friends, which made his stay even more special. I couldn’t recommend Ana Paula more, she’s so lovely, and I feel lucky we found her (and Molly!).”
“Britt’s care for our dog, Wesley, exceeded all our expectations. We received numerous updates with pictures, which made us so happy and completely eliminated any nervousness about leaving Wesley. Britt is very friendly, obviously a huge dog lover, incredibly professional and we would definitely use her again. We feel very grateful for the care she provided!”
“Luna had a fantastic stay with Lisa and Lonny. They were easy to communicate with, sent lots of photos, and Luna felt comfortable quite quickly in their home. We feel grateful to have found wonderful people we can trust with our pup and have already booked another stay with them.”
“Guy and Zol were very accommodating for our little girl. The daily updates weren't expected but we're greatly appreciated. Will use again if available and would recommend to anyone.”
“Liam and Toby were absolutely AMAZING! They took such good care of Kumo, showering him with love and pets. We got regular updates and could see how much fun Kumo was having. He came back home tired and satisfied from all the lovin’ 🥰 We are already looking forward to our next staycation with Liam!”
“As usual, Gabriel was awesome with regular updates with pictures and notes. They were very communicative and helpful. Teddy came back clean and happy.”
“I used Erin's boarding service for 3 days and I was very happy with her. She took my dog on hikes and for a swim. Communicating with her was easy and she sent a lot of pics to update me on how my dog was doing. I would highly recommend her!!”
“Ranah and Franki were great sitters for my guy Fozzie. It was reassuring to know that he was in great hands while I was away. Thank you both so much for making sure he had his meds when he needed them, and letting him hang out with your awesome dog. I will definitely have Fozzie stay with you again.”
“Lisa (and Elsa!) went above and beyond taking care of Hugo for his first ever overnight at a stranger's home. Lisa was very communicative/responsive throughout the entire process, and sent photos and updates throughout Hugo's visit. She helped put us at ease every step of the way. Lisa is very warm & empathetic and I felt she cared for Hugo like her own. I wouldn't hesitate to bring Hugo back to stay with Lisa + her sweet dog Elsa!”
“Graciela was absolutely amazing! The regular updates and superstar care given to Nacho was just fantastic. We loved knowing he was staying in a cozy home with a fellow pug pal. Can’t recommend Graciela highly enough!”
“Racheal and Kitoshi took wonderful care of Bowie while we were away on our European trip. It was his first extended boarding experience, and it couldn’t have gone better. We were able to truly relax and enjoy our vacation knowing that our furry family member was in such good hands. They sent us daily photos and updates, which gave us great peace of mind. Bowie seemed happy, comfortable, and well cared for throughout his stay. We would absolutely book with Racheal and Kitoshi again in the future and highly recommend them to others.”
