“Whitney was amazing! My dogs loved our at home sitter. She is great with our dogs. She is very friendly and I would recommend her to friends and family for sure!!! Worry free weekend for us.”

About: I love spending time with pets and getting to know them and their interests and then doing as much as we can to create a great connection and ensure the pet is getting the most out of my time with them! I work full time but I am a contractor so I am able to make my own schedule for the most part. After the summer I am in university at uofc but am still able to get around to different locations I care for pets by being very active with them and treating them like I would any other person. I also ensure I know their food and sleep schedule so that they are not forgotten about no matter how busy my day is.

“Cashlyn did an amazing job taking care of my two dogs while I was on vacation! She sent lots of updates and photos. I was nervous to leave my one dog as he is a bit anxious when he’s not with me, and I don’t even know if he realized I was gone. They had so much fun! My house was well taken care of and honestly seemed cleaner than when I left! Highly recommend!”

“We have a new puppy and an older dog who just had his remaining eye removed. Both pups required special care and Jodi was just the best! She was here on Easter Sunday and gave us the freedom to go visit family and not take the new pup or recovering dog with us. I would recommend Jodi to anyone who wants excellent care for their fur babies.”

“Jorja was amazing with the dogs. She leapt in last minute when one of the dogs was injured and I wasn’t comfortable leaving the dogs in a group setting while I was away. I was able to focus on work while I was gone and came home to happy, healthy pets!”

About: I’ve loved animals my whole life—growing up with a dog, horse, and cat, and later caring for my own dog from 2009–2013. I’m experienced, gentle, and treat every pet like family. I work up north for CNRL one week on and one week off allowing me time to work on my days off. I would be willing to to work on my days off Unfortunately I live in a condo in Black Diamond which is not pet friendly however I am more than happy to accommodate however I can
“Allison has been amazing with our puppy Odin . He is a rescue and shy , she was calm and gentle with him . When we went away, she house sit for our dog and rabbit . He went on adventures everyday and had a better vacation than us ! We were updated everyday with many pictures which I appreciated leaving him alone for the first time. She is amazing !”

“We really appreciated Andre’s help looking after our mini schnauzer and home while away for a few days. He’s a great communicator and made our short vacation easy knowing our pooch was in good hands.”


About: Taking care of animals has always been a big part of my life. I grew up with pets and still share my home with them today, so being around animals feels natural to me. I’m not someone who rushes in and out. I take my time, pay attention, and make sure each pet feels comfortable, safe, and cared for. I’m big on the little moments and always make space for extra affection, play, and quiet cuddle time. Over the years, friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to watch their pets while they’re away, sometimes for days or even weeks. Those stats are filled with walks, meals, playtime, and most of all plenty of love that is never rushed. When your pet is with me, they’re treated just like my own, with patience, kindness, and genuine care. If you want someone who will care for your pets like family, I’d be happy to help. Pets are a big part of my daily life, and I love caring for them. I’m a first-year Open Studies student at the University of Calgary, and with a light course load, I have a flexible schedule to give your pets the attention they deserve. I also play on the Dino’s women’s soccer team, bringing the same energy, focus, and dedication to caring for pets as I do on the field. My own pets are spoiled with cuddles, playtime, and lots of affection, even on days when I’m not pet sitting. That same love and patience goes into caring for every animal I look after, whether they need walks, visits throughout the day, overnight care, or quiet lap time. I take my time with each pet and make sure they feel calm, comfortable, and truly cared for. I provide all pet care right in your home, so your cats, dogs, or other furry family members can stay in a familiar, stress-free environment with their favorite toys, cozy spots, and daily routines. I follow your instructions carefully, secure doors and windows, respect all household rules, and treat your home with the same care I would my own. With a lifelong love of animals, I make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved. Whether it’s walks and playtime for dogs, gentle cuddles and chin scratches for cats, fresh meals and water, potty breaks, litter box care, or just quiet companionship, I give attention that’s tailored to each pet’s needs. Owners appreciate how relaxed and content their pets remain, knowing both their home and furry family members are in caring, trustworthy hands.
About: I’ve cared for animals for most of my life and have experience with dogs, cats, birds, fish, puppies, senior pets, rescues, and large dogs over 100 lbs. My first dog growing up was a Border Collie named Zero, and I’ve also cared for multiple poodles and two cats named Bandit and Shadow. Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality, routine, and comfort level. I’ve also been involved with animal rescue work, including helping with Wyoming Pug Rescue. That experience taught me patience, calm handling, and how important it is to earn trust, especially with shy, anxious, reactive, or rescue animals. I’m comfortable with puppies, senior pets, large breeds, special diets, mobility issues, eye drops, medications, breathing concerns, seizures, and pets who need extra patience. I currently offer dog walking, drop in visits, and overnight care in your home. My goal is to keep your pet’s routine as normal and stress free as possible while giving you clear updates, photos, and peace of mind. I work for myself and run my business from my laptop, which gives me very flexible availability for pet care. I’m currently available for daytime visits, evenings, weekends, holidays, dog walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays in your home when my calendar is open. Because my schedule is flexible, I can usually work around your pet’s normal routine instead of forcing them into mine. Whether your pet needs a morning walk, midday drop-in, evening visit, medication timing, or overnight companionship, I’ll do my best to keep things consistent, calm, and reliable. For overnight care, I only accept bookings that I can properly commit to, since I can’t be in two homes overnight at the same time. I provide care in the client’s home and neighborhood, so I take trust, cleanliness, and home respect very seriously. I’m clean, well spoken, non-smoking, drug-free, and careful when entering and leaving a client’s home. I make sure doors, gates, crates, collars, harnesses, and leashes are secure, and I follow each pet parent’s instructions closely. Before a booking, I like to confirm feeding routines, walk expectations, medication instructions, emergency contacts, vet information, house access, leash rules, and any behaviours I should know about. I’m comfortable with senior pets, puppies, large dogs, shy animals, anxious pets, reactive dogs, rescues, and pets with mobility or medical needs. I also drive and have a valid driver’s license and insurance, which gives added peace of mind in case of an emergency. During visits and overnight stays, I’ll provide updates and photos so you know your pet is safe, comfortable, and cared for.

“Kendra took such great care of my two French bulldogs! She kept me updated with regular messages and photos, which gave me peace of mind knowing they were happy and well cared for. When I got home, my apartment was just as I left it! I really appreciated how thoughtful Kendra was throughout the entire stay. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”

“She truly goes above and beyond. She did everything to make sure my poor girl was comfortable as she was having some anxiety issues and she took every extra step to help her get through it. By the end they were besties… which also eased my mind. Was also a special sprite to come home to a house that was put together and dogs that were happy and excited. She will be permanent and regular”

About: [To my regular clients. I have moved a tiny bit east of Cranston from my condo to a townhouse. I am located in Rangeview now which is just a tad east of Seton Hospital and across from South Mahogany. I will see you there next time.🤗 my address is in the info.] Greetings! I am a retired stay at home mom and grandma. I have owned Shih-Tzu/Shih-Tzu Bichon cross for25+ years. After having lost two, Molly to kidney issues and Buddy at 16, Oliver(4) is now my companion. I would love for him to have friends over to play ☺️ He needs some friendly company❤️ I am very able to accommodate another dog as I am not working. On occasion my grand daughters (6/7) or grandson (8) are over, and they love pets. I go for long walks with my own dog every day so pet sitting/walking fits my life style very well. I have a large condo with an oversized deck (safety surrounded, and am located across from the paths to Cranston park and also the long open areas of the pathway along river system. My home is well kept and your pet will have a good combination of rest/activity in safe and fun environment.
About: I’ve been around all animals for my entire life! Dogs are definitely up there in the favourites however I lived with cats consistently. I’ve administered medication, trimmed nails even trimmed butt hair! As a student I have lots of free time to care for pets and houses! I am full time from 9-3 but I have an extended lunch period and can show up mornings and evenings! I treat all animals as if they are my own, being around them so often has given me the ability to understand body language and make sure they feel the most comfortable around me.
About: 🐾 About Me Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I have extensive hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, and reptiles, and I've spent years pet-sitting for friends and family while always sharing my home with animals of my own. I currently have two cats and 2 dogs, all rescues, and definitely all the best decisions I ever made! :) 🐕 My Experience In addition to caring for my own pets and pet sitting for friends and family, I have volunteered in civilian rescue and transport for high-risk dogs and served as a volunteer cat caregiver with AARCS. 😊 The Rescue of Sally and Her Puppies. I rescued and transported a lot of dogs and cats over the past few years, but the biggest undertaking was helping rescue a mother dog, who we later named Sally, and her 8 one-day-old puppies from a reserve in Alberta during -38°C temperatures. I transported this special fur family to my dog trainer's acreage where we set up a secure, safe, warm area. I learned how to care for them and help with early socialization, structure, and training to prepare them for life with their future families. Every puppy, and Sally herself, has since been adopted into loving, forever homes. Being part of something like this was definitely one of the most meaningful and rewarding experiences of my life! I am in a position with much flexibility and availability in my schedule, allowing me to easily accommodate most booking requests with little advanced notice. ❤️ Your Pet Is Family Every pet parent should have worry-free, stress-free pet care. I will treat your animals with the same love, and your home with the same respect, as I do my own. I understand that every animal, just like people, is unique. I'll take the time to earn their trust, understand their needs, likes, and dislikes, so they will be well cared for, and they will get an abundance of fun and cuddles! Whether we're going for a walk, playing in the yard, or simply keeping each other company while you're away, you will receive photos and messages during our visits so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your fur-baby is in caring, capable hands.
“Shelby took great care of our fur babies! You could tell that they were well exercised and loved while we were away. Also Shelby left the house neat and tidy. Will definitely be booking with her again.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Black Diamond on Rover is $74.24 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of August 2026, there are 1,156 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Black Diamond. Enter your postal code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Black Diamond maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Garbage & recycling: Taking garbage bins to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Black Diamond walking routes, the location of your favourite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Black Diamond choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
You can find what you need to review a sitter on their profile before booking with them. Each sitters’s profile on Rover shows verified reviews, identity check, and ratings to give a glimpse of how their previous visits went. You can also use the Meet & Greet to walk through your home, identifying which areas, like your bedroom, are off-limits or not. Requesting details of your home security through the app can also be a good way to have your sitter keep you updated about your home.
If you have security cameras or doorbells, Rover asks that you disclose them to sitters before you book.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they do not have any disqualifying offences.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a veterinary professional or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means Rover Support will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
