“Sheryl was fantastic! She took care of our dog so well, and gave me complete peace of mind while we were away! We have already booked her for our next trip and feel confident knowing our dog will be in good hands.”

“We left our Maltese Dale with Mike & Jim for 5 days. We did a meet and great and we knew Dale would be in good hands. Mike kept us updated with great pictures throughout our dog's stay. They took good care of Dale and replied very quickly to all our messages. Their 2 dogs Yogi and Dash are very cute and friendly. I would certainly recommend. Thank you!”

“Jessica was incredibly caring, patient, and understanding with our shy dog, Sawyer. She knew exactly how to help him feel comfortable and at home during his overnight stay. Sawyer got lots of exercise, had a great time playing, and came home happy and relaxed. Jessica also sent us photos and updates throughout his stay, which we really appreciated and made us feel at ease. I would highly recommend Jessica to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their furry family member!”

“Angela was so attentive and thoughtful about caring for Ollie and we feel lucky to have found her and her family for future care. It’s always a bit nerve-wrecking to leave your dog with new people. Angela made the process feel seamlessly easy.”

“Andrea and Sergio took care of our senior dog Ferguson, and he seemed to have a great time with them! They sent daily updates and photos, and made great efforts to feed our picky boy and ensured he got all his medications.”

“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 :)”

“As usual, Gabriel was awesome with regular updates with pictures and notes. They were very communicative and helpful. Teddy came back clean and happy.”

“Watson had a fantastic time with Maaya while we were away. She was able to look after him while he was recovering from an injury and sent us lots of photos, we would definetly rebook with her again and highly recommend her as a sitter!”

“Connie provided excellent care for our dog. She provided all of the information needed before drop-off. Once we dropped off our dog, she provided updates via texts, pictures, and videos on a very frequent basis. She was also very understanding when there was a slight delay picking up our dog due to traffic conditions. Happy to let her watch our dog again if needed.”

“It was my very first time using Rover’s service so I was a little apprehensive. I arrived early and was still welcomed to drop off Bugz which was greatly appreciated. During the time Bugz was in the care I was fed photos of him looking very comfortable in his surroundings. Again a device that was not expected but certainly appreciated because it put my mind at ease about the care Bugz was receiving! All in all I was more than pleased with the service and care received during my initial use. I would recommend this person as a sitter or boarder and would have no reservations of using them again.”

“Madison took care of our dog Bruce over the weekend and it was our first time using Rover and we feel so lucky that we picked such a nice and communicative sitter for him. Would highly recommend Madison!”

“Jungho was an amazing host for Cookie. She took to him right away Jungho and his family made her feel very at home and relaxed. When I picked up cookie she was happy and relaxed. I would highly recommend for your pet sit.”

“Braden was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Furfur. Furfur was so relaxed and comfortable with Braden. Braden was also great at communication throughout, always responsive. Highly recommended!”

“Jeffrey was really gentle and thoughtful with our dog, Owen, and our pup seemed completely at ease with him. Jeffrey was responsive and reliable with his communication, and made us feel reassured about Owen’s well-being through regular updates with Owen’s photos. We would definitely book with him again. Highly recommend :)”

“We could not have asked for a better sitter for our boy Newton! We really appreciated all the updates and silly stories! It kept our mind at ease, while we were away from our fur baby. Thank you so much Britt, Newton can’t wait to see you again!”

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Bowen Island home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favourite hang-out spots in your Bowen Island
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
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 .
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 82% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
