“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.”
“We really appreciate Shaena coming and taking care of our pup. She kept us in the loop and went above and beyond for us. Will definitely be getting Shaena again when we need someone to watch our pup!”
“Daryna responded quickly to our last minute request and was very helpful. She asked questions and followed our instructions, and provided notes about how things went with Otis. She was great and we would love to have her check in with Otis again.”
“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.”
“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!”
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.
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.
“Very grateful for my experience with Kateryna! Not only was she able to step in when a family friend changed plans of watching my two cats 3 days before my trip! She also took time from her day when my toilet flooded my apartment to make sure both my belongings and cats were okay. I’m very pleased with the care she took of my cats as they’re quite particular in their needs. Would recommend Kateryna to any cat family and definitely book again!”
“These two were so kind and generous, took the time to meet with our pups and were so patient with our excitable puppy. They were diligent about double checking care details and we just so appreciated their willingness to help. Our cat unexpectedly got aggressive with them and we felt so awful but they still provided regular updates and showed kindness. You and your pets will love these two.”
“Kaela has cat-sit twice for us while we’ve been away and she is so great - very communicative and went above and beyond to make sure our cat had everything he needed. Would highly recommend Kaela!”
“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: Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, and bathe their animals for years. I offer a lot of patience and affection to every animal I care for. I’m happy to help with basic tasks like feeding, cleaning litter boxes, and giving medication if you show me how. I provide a stress-free, loving environment where your pet can feel completely at home. I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available to provide pet care any day and any time. I’m also open for overnight stays, giving your pet the comfort of having company throughout the night. Whether you need short drop-in visits, extended sitting, or weekend care, I’m here to help. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I offer a free-roam environment where your pet can feel at ease — no crates unless you specifically request it. Although I don't have a fenced yard or other pets at home, my space is pet-friendly and safe. I’m happy to administer medication if you give me clear instructions. I’m committed to creating a calm, trustworthy, and comfortable setting for every pet I care for.
“Awesome. She communicated well with us and genuinely looks after the cats. She is very authentic and caring. She clearly has cats as she knows what type of attention cats need. Will def use her again in the future.”
“My cats warmed up to Jiayu very quick. Based on the pictures and videos it looks like they had a wonderful visit with her. I will definitely be reaching out again the next time I need someone to check in on my cats.”
“I had a great experience with Tiana taking care of my cat! She was reliable, followed all of my instructions, and kept me updated with photos and messages during each visit, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. I came home to a happy cat and everything was just as I left it. I’d definitely book with her again :)”

This was my first time using Rover and Rey was so easy to work with. He offered to swing by my place before I booked him for a meet and greet and I quickly knew I could trust him with my girls and the keys to my place. I had him come in once a day to feed my girls soft food and check in on them. He was communicative through the process sending me photos and videos every time he came in. When I got home he offered to walk my keys over to me - what service! I would definitely use Rey again!
I couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of Nakoda. She took such great care of my cat, made sure all routines were followed, and kept me posted while I was away, which meant a lot. It was clear my cat was comfortable and well looked after. Highly recommend, she’s fantastic.
Miranda keeps our minds at ease whenever we are away. We always know that our kitty is being taken care of in the best possible way! She really cares, and it shows on her Rover cards, keeping us up to date. Plus she's creative in coming up with ways to interact with and entertain our cat! Thanks again, Miranda!!
Thank you so so so much Jiayu!! My kitty has really horrible separation anxiety, so having to attend a business trip had me a bit nervous, but he did great! And was super calm and happy when I got home, as opposed to being upset and screaming! He had so much fun! Will book again!❤️
Second time having Julien look after Smokey. He’s super responsive, very meticulous and attentive. He always sends pics and videos with a quick explanation of how Smokey is doing, which I really appreciate. It really helps me relax knowing my cat is in good hands and properly taken care of. I can genuinely rest assured that Smokey is looked after when I’m away. Would definitely recommend Julien to anyone needing a reliable pet sitter.
Kathleen was fantastic. Wonderful job looking after our two cats. Kept us informed and up to date on everything involving the cats and their day. Great pictures and write up with each visit. She is very professional and knowledgeable. We would highly recommend her for a pet sitter.
Ivana was very professional and took great care of my cats. You can tell she really cares for animals and is willing to go above and beyond to make sure your pets are taken care of. She also sends a lot of amazing pictures and great action shots as well. Would recommend to anyone who needs peace of mind when travelling.

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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Calgary choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .

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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
