About: With decades of real-life experience caring for animals and homes, I provide professional, personalized and dependable pet care. My goal is to build lasting relationships with the families I serve while ensuring their pets feel safe, comfortable and loved. I'm a Certified Pet First Aid Provider, with additional training in animal wellness and extensive experience caring for puppies, adult and senior pets, including those requiring specialized attention. 📍 Where I Provide Care I offer professional pet care and house-sitting services on Vancouver Island, BC, throughout the Okotoks/South Calgary area and in communities along my travel route between British Columbia and Alberta. As I divide my time between these locations throughout the year, I welcome both one-time and recurring bookings whenever I'm in your area. 🐾 Personalized Care for Every Pet As a lifelong pet owner, I understand that every animal has a unique personality, from playful and social to shy, independent, anxious or sensitive. I take the time to understand your pet's individual needs, routines and personality, creating a calm, predictable environment where they feel safe and secure in their own familiar surroundings. My experience includes: 🐶 Puppies requiring patience, consistency and routine reinforcement. 🐕 Adult and senior pets with individual exercise, mobility or comfort needs. 💊 Pets requiring medication administration or additional physical assistance. 🤍 Anxious, fearful or reactive pets who benefit from a calm, patient approach and time to build trust. My observant nature allows me to recognize subtle changes in behaviour, appetite and energy. I'll keep you informed with regular updates and photos so you can enjoy peace of mind while you're away. 🏡 Your Home Is in Caring Hands I understand the trust involved in leaving both your beloved pets and your home in someone else's care. I bring a reliable, respectful and detail-oriented approach to every booking, maintaining your pet's established routines while treating your home with the same consideration I would my own. For overnight stays, I travel fully equipped with my own portable bed, bedding, towels and cooler. This allows me to settle in comfortably while minimizing disruption and keeping your home tidy. 🌿 Additional Care Needs Every pet deserves care suited to their individual needs. My Puppy/Enhanced Care Rate also applies to pets requiring additional time, attention or specialized care, regardless of age. This may include: 🐾 Puppies requiring frequent potty breaks, training reinforcement or close supervision. 🐾 Senior pets needing additional mobility assistance, frequent outings or more involved care routines. 🐾 Special-needs pets requiring medication, mobility support or individualized attention. 🐾 Anxious, fearful or reactive pets requiring additional supervision and a gradual, patient approach. A pet's age alone does not determine whether enhanced care is necessary. We'll discuss their individual requirements before confirming your booking. Please note: Pets requiring continuous supervision or those who cannot comfortably be left alone may require an individualized care arrangement and rate. 🗓️ Extended Stays — 10+ Nights I welcome extended house and pet-sitting bookings and offer a preferred nightly rate for qualifying stays of 10 nights or longer. Please note the following conditions: The extended-stay rate applies to regular overnight care only. Holiday dates and bookings requiring enhanced or specialized care are excluded from the discounted rate. Additional-pet charges remain at their regular rates. All extended bookings are subject to availability and a discussion of your pets' individual care requirements. 🐾 🫶 My Commitment to You As a Registered Holistic Nutritionist, Certified Natural Supplement Advisor, Energy Therapist and Certified Pet First Aid Provider, with ongoing education in animal wellness, I bring a unique combination of professional knowledge, practical experience and compassionate, heart-led care. My goal is simple: for you to enjoy your time away knowing your furry family members are receiving dependable, attentive care and being treated as if they were my own. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members!!! As someone who is location-independent and runs a remote/mobile Wholistic Wellness business. I have the flexibility to travel and spend meaningful time with animals in their home. I create a calm, safe environment by following your pet’s routine, offering attentive care and helping them feel secure, settled and supported in your home.

About: I’m a caring, responsible, and attentive pet sitter who treats every pet like family. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, basic grooming, administering treats, and providing plenty of attention and companionship. What sets me apart is my patience and ability to recognize changes in a pet’s behaviour and needs. I’m especially attentive to pets who may be nervous or take time to warm up to new people. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully and make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re in my care. I’m also happy to maintain their usual routines and provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away. I’m flexible and can accommodate different pet-care schedules based on your pet’s routine. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and overnight care depending on the booking. I’m happy to discuss your pet’s specific schedule and make sure they receive consistent care and attention while you’re away. I always make safety, comfort, and trust my top priorities. I follow each pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, medications if required, and playtime, while carefully following the owner’s instructions. In my home, I provide a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment where pets can feel comfortable and supervised. In a client’s home, I respect their space and make sure doors, gates, and other potential escape routes are secure. I also pay close attention to pets’ behaviour and surroundings and will communicate with the owner promptly if I notice anything unusual. I’m committed to providing reliable, loving care so both pets and their owners can feel comfortable and confident while they’re apart.

About: I have grown up around cats, dogs, and fish my whole life. I love taking care of animals and spending time with them. Being around animals is regulating for me. I love giving animals attention, however, I am, aware and respectful of animals who do not want to be touched or bothered. I don't mind spending a good amount of time with animals and ensuring all their needs are met. I have experience with all different types of dogs and cats. I am comfortable walking with dogs. I love spending time outdoors and going for walks. I work with families and go into different homes Monday-Friday. I am available on weekends and weeknights/lunches/early morning. I am an honest person, who loves all animals. I know how difficult it is leaving my cat when I go on holidays and it is always nice to have someone that you can trust to take care of them and come into your home. I want to provide that safety for others who are leaving to go away, whether that be for vacation, visiting family, work, etc., so that they can enjoy their time and not have to worry about their pets.

About: ** No longer taking reservations for 2018 - I work with dogs professionally. What started as a part time job has quickly changed my whole life- dogs are it now. I have experience with rescue dogs, seniors, tiny tiny toy breeds, special needs dogs (deaf, blind, epileptic), giant dogs and even aggressive dogs (I have the scars to prove it) I’m happy step in as a surrogate pet parent for anyone because I know this is my calling. I would never give service I wouldn’t accept for my little one. Dogs become members of your family and that’s how I will treat them, the same as I treat my own or my clients at work. I find that every dog has something special to offer and just need the right person to make them feel comfortable.

“Sara has been wonderful! We adopted a rescue who takes time to warm up to people and he gravitated to her right away. He is still learning his new space and Sara has been working with me to help him with that, especially when on leash outside. I was so nervous about this whole process but Sara has set my mind at ease with it all. I will continue to book her services as long as she is available!”

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Black Diamond

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Black Diamond is $28 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $32 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

There are 1,792 sitters on Rover for Pet Sitting in Black Diamond. About 89% of Black Diamond sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

Once you find the right match, you can arrange a to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

You can coordinate how much supervision you want directly with your sitter. While every sitter’s schedule varies, here are some examples of supervision by pet care service:

  • Boarding or doggy day care: Many sitters can provide frequent companionship because they design their day specifically around the pets in their care or work from home.
  • House sitting: Your sitter generally stays in your home for the requested duration, which may include overnight care. They may step out briefly to visit other pet clients, but your home remains their primary base.
  • Drop-in visits or dog walking: These can be scheduled in 30- or 60-minute windows (and can be shorter or longer at your request) to help your pet receive dedicated attention and care during those specific times.

Interested in constant or 24/7 care? This service often incurs an additional fee but many sitters are happy to discuss this option with you.

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!

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 .

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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our .

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.

Payment is handled securely through Rover. For a one-time booking, at the time of checkout when you submit your booking request. This charge will include fees payable to Rover. Your booking is confirmed once the sitter accepts it.

If the request is not accepted, the pending charge is released in 1-7 days. How long it takes to disappear from your account depends on your payment provider.

For eligible recurring weekly services, you are charged for the first week when you book and then each Monday for the upcoming week. You’ll see the full price before you confirm. Always pay through Rover so your booking remains eligible for the Rover Guarantee and support.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:

  • 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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.
