“This was my second time boarding with Sunny, and it was fantastic! She’s incredibly trustworthy and took such great care of Akira—she came back relaxed and happy.”

“Harry loves staying with JoAnn and Lance. He races up their driveway when we arrive and romps right onto their house to make himself at home. He gets thoroughly spoiled with massages, cuddles and walks. I am thankful to have found this delightful couple who take such good care of my Harry!”

“Sara and her family are truly wonderful hosts. 👍 They are very loving and genuinely great with dogs. They took my dog out multiple times every day and always kept me updated with photos, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. They are incredibly patient and spent real quality time with my dog, not just basic care. Most importantly, Sara is an excellent communicator. She treats dogs like family and often gives them praise and encouragement, which I really appreciated. I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received and would highly recommend Sara to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring host.”

About: Hi, I’m Robin! Lover of all animals and will treat your dog like a member of our family! I had cats and fish growing up and then moved on to dogs! I have 10 years of hands‑on experience raising my Boston Terrier from birth and caring for her through every stage of life, including her final battle with cancer. She taught me to be patient, playful, attentive, and deeply affectionate with every dog I meet. I’ve had the pleasure of taking care of my friends and family’s dogs, and know how hard it can be to be away from your little fur babies but also at the same time be able to enjoy some alone time. As a homemaker, I’m home all day, and ready to step in and be a welcoming, affectionate and safe provider when you’re away! Your dog will get ample time to play, walk or hike ( depending on your dogs abilities) relax, snooze, and of course, eat! We have a fenced in back yard, where they’ll be able to do their “business” whenever they need and a few parks within walking distance for some leisure time. I also have experience administering oral and eye medication. Being a homemaker, mom to a 19 yr old, and having no more of our own pets, your dog will be getting plenty of time, love & attention, and supervision throughout the day. My husband works from home and loves spending time with dogs too, so your pup will always have company. I live in a townhouse where your dog will never be far from my sight, not that many places to go lol. I live in a quiet neighborhood, where our backyard is fenced and not easily accessible to public. We have carpeted stairs making it easier to get up and down and a large carpet in the living room for them to roll around and scratch their backs!
“We feel so lucky to have met Lisa and Lonny. They took such amazing care of Welly. He can be slightly nervous around strangers at first and they were both so attentive and made him quickly feel at home. It was great to see how active he was while we were away with frequent updates from the beaches, trails etc. When Welly’s allergies picked up they even grabbed a probiotic for him. We could not recommend them more, they are seriously the best.”

“Angela was the best pet sitter i could hope for for my senior dog. I felt so lucky that she was available and I knew my dog would be cared for really well. Super thankful for Angela and her kiddos.”

“Ranah and Franki were wonderful. They took good care of our dog and were communicative during his stay. We received daily updates and they responded quickly to any messages we sent.”

“Lisa was amazing. She was caring, communicative, and took wonderful care of Tony while we were away. Her Labrador, Elsa, is a lovely dog too. Tony got lots of walks, exercise, and cuddles on the couch. It truly felt like he was on vacation as well! We will absolutely contact Lisa when Tony needs care in the future. Thank you, Lisa!”

“This was a great experience! Gloria is so friendly and great communication. They treated Keith just like their own. They reply helped him feel comfortable in his new environment and really tried to know him so they could make his stay positive. I highly recommend Steven and Gloria and will be a repeat customer!”

“I left my boy with Joanna for boarding. She sent me regular updates, pictures and videos. He seemed happy and playful while he was with Joanna. She also sent me end of the day report about their activities, which was great. I’m sure tato looking for his next boarding trip with her next month.”

“We recently left our dog Louis (a small Maltese) and our cat Night in Ruramai’s care for two weeks while we were on vacation, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the very beginning, she was communicative and attentive. Louis settled in right away, Night took his time, but it was expected and after a couple of days he settled in. We received regular updates, including photos, which gave us great peace of mind. When we returned, both pets were relaxed, healthy, and happy—clearly well cared for and loved. I wholeheartedly recommend Ruramai to anyone looking for a trustworthy, kind, and responsible sitter. We will use her services again. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of Louis and Night!”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Aiko looking after our Frenchie, Baobao. From start to finish, her communication was absolutely amazing — regular updates, photos, and check-ins that gave us complete peace of mind. It was clear Baobao was so well cared for, loved, and completely comfortable during his stay. He came home happy and relaxed, and honestly looks like he can’t wait to go back! We wouldn’t hesitate to book Aiko again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and attentive sitter.”

“Michael & Jim are truly wonderful. They take care of our little Leila like she’s their own and she just LOVES going to their place for short or long stays. We adore them xoxo”

“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Kat and Darrell and their kids. My puppy Gracie was so well looked after and I was notified throughout her stay with photos and updates. Would defo recommend and I know Gracie can’t wait to visit them again!”

“Aditya and Alpana are amazing sitters! They are so warm and friendly, they took very good care of my dog, and they keep sending updates during my trip. It's great to see my dog having a great time with them and bounding so quickly! She had so much fun and loved them at the end of her stay. I'll definitely recommend them, and will come back again.”

“Exceptional care for our fur baby! We left our dog, Charlie, with Oriana and her husban Jean for 10 days, and we could not have asked for a better experience. Leaving a pet for the first time and for that long can be stressful, but we were completely at ease thanks to the frequent updates and obvious love Charlie received. He had an absolute blast and was treated like family. It was so comforting to see and gave us peace of mind that our Charlie looking so happy and relaxed while we were away. We will definitely be booking again—Charlie already misses his home away from home! Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our boy!”

“We were so happy rebooking with Alison. She always sends us messages and pictures to make sure we are updated daily. We felt our Gojo is safe and well taken cared of. Thanks Allison 🙂”

“Justine was an amazing sitter for my sweet girl Roca. She welcomed her into her home and loved her like she was her own. I will definitely use her again and highly recommend her for your pooch.”

The median cost per night for dog boarding in Burnaby is $50
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Burnaby
It was my first time using Rover and I was very lucky to have found Xiaotao. She is an heaven sent, an angel, a saint. She was very kind and patient with my overly energetic labrador. She sent updates and pictures daily, which made me feel at ease. She even updated me on my dog’s poops. My dog was really spoiled at Xiaotao’s and I could tell from the pictures that my dog felt comfortable and calm with her very quickly, which is rare. I think she gets along really well with dogs because of her calm and patient demeanour. I would definitely book with her again and she would be my first choice every time. I cannot thank her enough for caring for my dog. She’s just wonderful.

This was Prince’s second stay, and it just confirmed how safe and loved he is with her family. She, her husband, and their little one are all so gentle and welcoming. It truly feels like Prince is part of their home when he’s there. I’m grateful to have a sitter I can trust. Thank you Shiyao and Family 😊

Deepika took great care of our high energy Golden retriever, that too over 3 weeks. She provided him ample exercise and gave us timely updates during our travel overseas. Our dog was so happy during his stay that he didn't want to go back home in the first go. Thanks Deepika!!

Flora was so sweet and lovely! Would absolutely book her again. My dog can be a bit shy but Flora really made sure she was comfortable and happy. She sent plenty of updates and I could tell Rainbow was really enjoying her time with Flora and her adorable dog Juju. Thank you so much Flora!!

Bella & Emma are officially our go-to boarders for Pickles, our heeler-husky mix! This was his second stay with them while we were traveling internationally, and once again, he was incredibly well cared for. They made our trip completely stress-free, and we loved receiving photos of our boy looking so happy and spoiled. If Pickles loves them, that says everything: we do too.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of June 2026, there are 2,856 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Burnaby. Enter your postal code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Burnaby 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 Burnaby
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.
