“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 :)”

“I had a great experience with this booking. My furry baby stayed for a day with Andrea, Sergio and Perla. They are very kind, flexible and responsable people. Definitely I'll book again with then when I need it.”

“Tosha was fabulous with our two dogs - both very different one shy and reserved and the other rambunctious! They looked happy and were well cared for! Loved the daily pictures 🤩”

“Daniela was awesome as always and took great care of teddy. The updates which included pictures and videos were timely and frequent enough. Teddy came back clean and happy and really seemed to have had a great time with Daniela!”

“Andrew was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. His professionalism up front really inspired trust, and once we made a solid connection at the meet and greet, I knew Luna was going to be in good hands. She absolutely was treated like gold. The communication was reliable and flexible. All the photos he shared showed a very happy dog! I would 100% choose to board Luna with Andrew and his lovely partner again any time.”

“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.”

“I can absolutely recommend Sidney. She took great care of my dog Scarlett over the August long weekend. Sidney was incredibly communicative throughout the process and made sure that Scarlett would be comfortable throughout the weekend. She even helped her through a fright with some fireworks that happened during her stay which I really appreciated. Will definitely be booking her again.”

“Charlie had a lovely stay with Dean. He took exceptional care of Charlie for 3 weeks and provided updates. Dean brought Charlie for walks and off leash play time. He gave Charlie lots of cuddles and affection and Charlie felt loved from the very start. Dean even bathed Charlie and kept him clean and we came back to a happy and clean dog”

“Thank you to Sara and her family for taking care of Baxter!!! He came home happy and for the first time didn’t seem stressed staying at a different home. I appreciate all the photos and video updates which reduced my worries as Baxter has some specific needs. Thank you so much and will definitely recommend.”

“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.”

“Paz and Richard were absolutely amazing. Our dog fell in love with them right away at our meet and greet. They took 5+ star care of him, with lots of play time and walks. We have an older dog that can have silly habits with other dogs and They both were very affectionate in helping. Lots of updates and photos. Really makes you feel comfortable during your time away. Thank you so much Paz and Richard.”

“Chea was absolutely wonderful and took great care of Oreo over the Memorial Day long weekend. He gave us regular, thoughtful updates on Oreo’s well-being, took him for walks in the nearby park, and made sure he was comfortable and happy. Oreo seemed to feel at ease with him immediately, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. Chea is a great person, very reliable, and his communication was excellent and immediate throughout. The next time we are in Vancouver, we will 100% book with him again. Highly recommend!”

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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.

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 tips for your first Meet & Greet.
You and your Bowen Island sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
