“I always feel I can trust Aubrey with my pets. I have used her a few times for pet sitting or checking in on my cat while away and I know she is doing a great job and my pets love her.”
About: Animals have been a huge part of my life for over 11 years. I’ve cared for both cats and dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies who are still learning the ropes to senior pets who need a little extra patience and attention. I also have experience with basic puppy training and understand the importance of consistency, positive reinforcement, exercise, and plenty of affection. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always aim to make them feel happy, safe, and cared for. Pet care is part of my everyday life. As a cat owner, my mornings typically begin with furry alarm clocks demanding breakfast, attention, and immediate service. Beyond my own pets, I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and already structure my days around feeding schedules, exercise, playtime, and making sure pets feel safe and cared for. Looking after animals isn’t something I squeeze into my schedule, it’s already part of it. Every pet is different, so I adjust my care to fit their personality and routine. Some pets want lots of playtime and activity, while others prefer a calm environment and extra cuddles. I follow feeding schedules, make sure pets get the exercise and attention they need, keep their space clean, and always prioritize their safety and comfort. I treat every pet as if they were my own and do my best to make their time away from their owner feel as easy and stress-free as possible.
“Gillian visited our 4 dogs when we were away for the day. She is dependable, trustworthy, and our dogs loved her. We were able to enjoy our day away from home, knowing that Gillian was there to let them run and play. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again.”
“Shaena is an absolute pleasure to work with and is amazing at taking care of your pet! Frank was living his best life over the holidays with lots of playing, pets and attention. Shaena was awesome with communication and following the care guide for Frank. Thank you so much and we will hope to see you soon!!”
“Kaela was an excellent caretaker for my sweet kitty while I was away. She kept me updated with photos and narratives. I am thankful to have met Kaela. My traveling was worry free due to her kindness and dedication.”
“Daryna is absolutely fantastic! She recently looked after my two cats and my birds, and I couldn't be happier with the care she provided. It can be tricky to find someone comfortable handling both feline and avian needs, but Daryna handled it all with ease. She was extremely communicative, sending regular updates that gave me total peace of mind while I was away. I returned home to very happy, well-cared-for pets.”
“Great communication she sent pictures every day. Made sure insulin injections were done in the correct timeframes. My little guys were very happy and content in Jennah’s care.”
“Olivia dropped in on our cats while we were camping. Her communication before and during the stays was great! She sent me some pictures and made me feel at ease knowing someone was watching them 😊 I would highly recommend Olivia to anyone looking for someone to care for their fur babies. Thanks Olivia!”
“Erika was fantastic! She was professional, communicative, and most importantly, our cat loved her. We loved getting the photo updates and felt 100% confident leaving our fur baby in her hands. We will definitely be booking again!”
“Bri was a stupendous sitter for our cat Finn. You could tell she really cared about taking care of him. Her reports were filled with detail and many great photos that gave us the peace of mind that he was being well taken care of with concern and care for his well being.”
“Cassandra was so great and allowed me to relax and enjoy my time away while I knew my pet was being taken care of. All of the photo’s she sent were much appreciated, I 100% plan on rebooking with her in the future!”
About: Growing up, I've always been surrounded by pets. My mom used to plonk me and Candy, my adorable French Poodle, into the same playpen. Candy wasn't just a pet; she was like my first best buddy. Then came Kina, our sweet Golden Retriever. Even at 10 years old, I took on the job of looking after her – walks, baths, food, the works. When she got older and needed surgeries, I was there for her, giving meds, cleaning wounds, and just showering her with love till the end. After Kina, Waffle came along. She was just a month old when I got her, which made socializing a bit tricky. But Waffle's been a real eye-opener. Through all the training sessions, I've learned that the key to a happy pup is consistency, patience, and loads of love. From Candy to Kina to Waffle, each furry friend has taught me heaps about compassion, responsibility, and being a rock-solid caregiver. They've been my teachers in life's best lessons, and I'm forever grateful for that. Now, alongside Waffle, I've got Mylo, this adorable and playful Westie who hit it off with Waffle right away. It's like having double the fun! And sometimes, I get the chance to look after my best friend's dog, Nala. Let me tell you, having three dogs around me makes me feel like the luckiest person in the world. It's a whole pack of love and joy, and I wouldn't trade it for anything. Every time I take care of a pet, my heart just swells with love for them. It's like the more I give, the more I have to give. So, right now, I'd love to extend that care to your furry ones too. I assure you, their well-being would be my top priority. There's nothing I wouldn't do to make sure they're happy, healthy, and feeling loved. With my remote job, I have the flexibility to control my own schedule, which means I can easily make time to play, go for walks, and shower love on my furry friends. All I need to do is grab my computer, and I'm good to go, whether it's at home or on the move. I always prioritize a calm, positive, and safe experience for every dog in my care. When possible, I like to meet dogs outside first so they can interact in a neutral environment with my own dog. We start with a short 5–10 minute walk together, which helps the dogs get comfortable, recognize each other as part of the same group, and build trust in a relaxed way. Once at home, I closely supervise the dogs while allowing them freedom to move around the house so they feel comfortable and at ease. I pay close attention to their body language, energy levels, and needs, making sure they feel safe, secure, and cared for at all times.
“Ounaysa is a caring and responsible cat sitter. She is also a cat whisperer and really enjoys her pet sitting. I appreciate her willingness to spend time and effort for the meet and greet to build connections with my cats. I can tell my cats enjoyed her visits and trusted Ounaysa in a very short time which is rare to them. I will definitely recommend Ounaysa to anyone looking for reliable pet sitters!”
About: I love dogs and used to volunteer with a dog rescue to foster dogs before they found their forever home. Many had trust issues, so I took the time needed to show them love and gain their trust. I want to create a safe space for dogs, gain their trust and help them enjoy their time with me. I grew up caring for a little yorkie and dog sat my roommate's dog with they travel abroad. I do believe in discipline, so if a dog misbehaves, they will get a time out. That being said, I will make sure dogs are not in a situation that will lead to such behaviour. I work 9am to 5pm in downtown Calgary, so my time is restricted to evenings and weekend. I live in East Vancouver but work near BC Place so can easily walking dogs near these area. I work 4 days a week and free am free weekends. I live with a dog and cat and love spoiling them. If I could have my own dog I would but shall enjoy caring for pets until then. I care for pets by following their routine closely—feeding on schedule, providing fresh water, walks, playtime, and plenty of affection in a calm, safe environment.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Calgary
Chloe was amazing! Such a sweet, soft spoken and easy going girl. My cats are very timid and anti social cats but she made them feel very comfortable during her visits. She provided great updates with lots of photos. I highly recommend Chloe and will definitely use her again in the future!
Tamara took such wonderful care of our cats while we were away. She sent us lots of photos and updates every day, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear that she genuinely cared about them and treated them with so much love and patience. We always felt they were in safe and caring hands. She is incredibly reliable, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again ❤️
Gillian took great care of my two cats while I was away and gave me so much peace of mind. She kept me updated with messages and photos, and it was clear they were well looked after. I came home to two happy, relaxed cats. I truly appreciated her reliability, kindness, and attention to detail. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their pets!
Dawn was a fantastic cat sitter. Her communication was top notch, and she did very well with my cat. He has a few health issues that she was easily able to accomodate for and provide fantastic care for. My holiday was more much relaxing knowing my cat was in good hands.
Tiana did drop in visits to take care of our two cats for a few days while we were away. She followed our instructions, and we enjoyed her detailed updates and multiple pictures of our boys from every visit. We would definitely recommend her for your pet needs!
Sadie is absolutely the best. My old girl Maggie warmed up to Sadie immediately and I knew right from the start that she was in good care with her. She was extremely attentive to Maggie and went above and beyond what I asked for not only with making sure Maggie was comfortable but cleaning up when she was done. Sadie is clearly knowledgeable, cares for animals deeply, and was exceedingly pleasant to interact with in between visits. I love how detailed her notes are and how many photos she takes, as well. Thank you so much, Sadie!
Bri was a stupendous sitter for our cat Finn. You could tell she really cared about taking care of him. Her reports were filled with detail and many great photos that gave us the peace of mind that he was being well taken care of with concern and care for his well being.
Danielle is the absolute best care taker for Ollie. We are so lucky to have her, I cannot say that enough! Each visit, she finds new ways to give Ollie enrichment, care and love. She also monitors his health concerns and updates us with his condition. Hands down the best care taker we could ask for!
Sina is the best - he has taken great care of Felix now for several trips, including a longer trip where we were out of town for a few weeks. He is flexible and able to modify reservations when our plans changed, and is a great communicator who sends lots of photos and videos. Super appreciate the reliable care that allows us to travel without a worry and confident our pet is well cared for. We highly recommend him and are thrilled to have found a great cat sitter.
