“Hunter is very warm & personable. My dogs warmed up to him pretty quick and that was nice to experience. He was very polite and professional and sent photo updates and left my home in tidy condition. I arrived home to well cared for happy dogs.”

About: What sets me apart as a dog sitter is my enthusiasm and dedication to making sure every dog has a great time! I love playing with dogs, taking them for walks, and giving them lots of attention. I'm really good at following instructions carefully, so you can be sure I'll stick to your dog's routine and make sure they get their food, walks, and any medicine they need right on schedule. I'm also comfortable with basic training like reinforcing commands such as "sit" and "stay". I'm committed to providing a safe, fun, and caring environment for your furry friend! Rover is my full time job so I am always home, Starting with morning cuddles and potty breaks, followed by breakfast and playtime, mid-day includes quick outdoor trips and litter box duties, afternoons are for walks and checking on other pets, evenings involve dinner, longer play sessions, and relaxation, while nights end with a final potty break and ensuring everyone has fresh water and a comfy sleep spot. - Safe Play Areas: Create a safe, enclosed area where they can explore and exercise outside their cages. - Regular Walks: Take dogs for walks at least once or twice a day, - Playtime: Engage in play with toys like balls, frisbees, and tug ropes. Interactive play helps to build a bond and keep them active. - Training Exercises: Incorporate basic obedience training during walks and playtime to keep their minds sharp. - Dog Parks: If available and safe, take them to dog parks for socialization with other dogs.
“This was my first time using Rover and my experience with Maddox was excellent. She was quick to respond to messages, kept me informed on how my dog was doing, and sent pictures of him playing and during snuggle time. She left my house clean and tidy. I would definitely hire Maddox again.”

“Abby is great- takes excellent care of my dog and cat. They both can be shy and are very comfortable with Abby. She even went the extra mile and stayed a few hours longer when my flight was delayed, which I really appreciated. When I finally walked in the door my pets were their relaxed, normal selves.”

“Melissa was awesome! She sent us ots of updates and the house was in perfect order when we got home. She was so great with both pups and tok the time to come meet them before hand as one of our dogs is very high anxiety. Both pups loved her! Thank you Melissa! Karlan & Adam”

About: Hello! My name is Ixchel. (Think Michelle - M) and I am in Ponoka visiting my grandmother. I work from home so my availability is very flexible. Though I am new to Rover, I have years of experience taking care of all sorts of animals! I am as comfortable with large dogs as I am small. I am fluent in both English and Spanish. I have two senior cats of my own that are currently in Lacombe. I have taken care of dogs that required daily injections and dogs that required daily oral medication. I am on Rover mostly for fun and to add a supplemental income! Due to that I am very flexible in my schedule, my cost, and my cancellation. Because I work from home if you so need it I can be as attentive as your pet needs and can be available to your pet all day if you’re looking to hire me for boarding/ house sitting/ daycare! I am excited to make your pets happiness, comfort, and safety a top priority and I aim to create a stress free environment for the care of your pet! As I am currently working online so I have plenty of flexible time to take care of and love your pets. I can work around your schedule. I want to put your pets comfort above all else and ensure that I am doing my best to honour any routines and needs that they (and you!) have. Every pet is unique in what they need, so I want to be able to offer a unique and personalized care experience for each pet.
About: I have been around active working dogs my whole life but for the last 10 years i have owned my own dogs and lived an active life style with them. I am very passionate about 5 star care for dogs and strive to do everything i can to be able to let dogs enjoy things but keep safe while doing it. I'm currently working part time and have time to do some short overnight stays with your dogs or stop in and play or walk your dog for the day if you're busy or won't be home till later in the day. I can take care of your dog(s) in any way you need, whether its playing ball or frisbee, short or long leashed walked, off leash activities or any sort of enrichment.
“Carmen was fantastic. Our 3 dogs were very happy when we got home. Carmen was very responsive and left our house in great condition. She went above and beyond, even going as far as to shovel our driveway off after a big snowfall! Would highly recommend Caremn to anyone looking for a house/pet sitter.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind pretty much my whole life! Friends, family and neighbours have trusted me to bathe, feed and walk their pets. I have a dog of my own, Cooper. I am excited to meet your pet(s) and treat them with love like they are my own! I’m currently working part time so I will have plenty of time to play with your pets! I can work any day of the week with at least 1 day notice (3 day notice for places more than an hour away). I live in a shared apartment so unfortunately I can’t offer my place to care for your pets but I am more than happy to watch your place while I care for your pets!
About: I have a great pyrenees, so I'm used to high maintenance in terms of care (brushing, exercise, attention etc.). He is super friendly and sociable. Happy to be your pup's intermittent second family :) I'm with my pup basically 24/7. I work remotely and go on hikes often. We're happy to make space/include your pets in our routine :) The space is a quiet private home in a fenced complex, with a dog-friend to keep your pet company. Flexible/adaptable scheduling for your pet's needs. No limit on length of stay, happy to pick up and drop off for an added fee.
About: I am a kind and attentive person who has had lots of experience with my own and other’s pets. Your baby will be in good hands :) I work part time so have lots of time to walk or check in on pups and kitties. I am available for overnight sitting most days as well. I have a small and modest home. I am open to providing accommodations for cats and small dogs during the day and/or overnight. Unfortunately there is not enough space for larger dogs.
About: Ive had several cats and dogs from reactive to fun loving. I love them all and look forward to being able to make your animals comfortable while you're away. I work Monday through Friday 7 to 5 in Olds but I am available any time after that and on weekends I am free any time. I am unable to care for animals jn my home. However I am happy to walk or play with your pets in or around your home.
