“Stephanie was absolutely fantastic with our special little guy! This was our first time using Rover and we were rather nervous, as we are pretty careful about who cares for our little guy. Every worry quickly disappeared as our little guy ran into the house and quickly made himself at home. Stephanie was so attentive to him and even sent us pics of their time together! The next day, our little guy headed straight for Stephanie with his tail wagging. We felt incredibly lucky to have found Stephanie and without hesitation would recommend her. The care and attention our little guy received was beyond outstanding! Thank you Stephanie!”
“Laura was so kind and made Otis feel right at home right away. You could tell she loved dogs and went over and above taking him on multiple walks and sending us so many great pictures of his mountain adventures. It was our first time using Rover and the overall experience was so good - we will definitely be using it again. Thanks Laura for treating Otis like your own dog and taking such good care of him. He was so calm and relaxed for the rest of the evening.”
“David and Candice were great. They sent photos through out his stay and took him for a walk. They communicated with us through out the whole time. Would rebook for sure next time I'm in Canmore.”
“Thank you, Kelley and Yuma. This is how to have a worry free trip to visit an exceptionably beautiful place. I feel like good fortune has found us when we started using Rover. Michael and I and Amaya all have a vacation stress free and enjoyable.”
“Alex was great with Kira! Since dropping her off, Kira felt very comfortable and happy around Alex and her dog! I also felt confident about Alex taking good care of Kira and that I was leaving her in good hands. She took Kira for a long walks, and Kira came back happy and tired after spending the day with Alex. I would recommend her for sure!”

I was able to fully enjoy Moraine Lake and the hikes that don't allow dogs with total peace of mind. Evelyn and Gareth took wonderful care of Sven; I received updates very regularly, and Evelyn was extremely meticulous regarding my dog's epilepsy treatment. I highly recommend them. Even I'm not fluent in English the communication was very easy Thanks you so much
Both David and Candice took great care of Kiya. Allowing us to take our kids on adventures throughout both days of our trip. They were very flexible with our schedule. The communication was excellent and they even helped me with using the app for the first time. They were very patient and helped Kiya build trust. They provided us updates with photos during her visit. Thank you so much! Highly recommend.
Jessica treated our dog Fudge like a king. We had never left him with another person before this weekend. After texting and talking in person with Jessica with felt completely comfortable leaving Fudge in her care. I was not distracted or worried while we were participating in the Canmore/Banff bridge tournament.

There are 24 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in Canmore. About 95% of Canmore sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
Your dog’s first day care experience is a big milestone! To help your pup settle in comfortably, we recommend:
- Food and treats portioned for the day, with feeding instructions
- Your dog's leash and collar (ensure tags are up-to-date)
- Any seasonal gear, such as paw-safe wax for winter or a cooling vest for the summer
- Medication, if applicable, with clear dosage notes
- Any special care instructions or training tips to help your sitter provide the most personalized care possible
Tip: Upload this information directly through the Rover app before drop-off. The more context you provide, the better your sitter can tailor the day to your dog.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Canmore commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
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 .
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in AB ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines such as the DHPP or DA2PP, Rabies, and Bordetella.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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.
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.
