About: I have taken care of dogs and cats of all kinds ever since I was a child. I have always had a passion for animals and have never lived in a home without them. Friends, families, neighbours, and colleagues have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe, and brush their furry loved ones. I have two dogs (Buddo and Eevee) who are trained off leash and on leash; they are incredibly friendly and love to play with other dogs. I am a teacher with full-time availability for doggy day care, walks, or checking in on your furry loved ones in the summer! Once the school year starts up, I am only available on weekends. When caring at my own home: I have two friendly dogs of my own, with a very large backyard for play time. The yard is split into two separately fenced areas, which allows for some quiet time from my own dogs if necessary. When caring in your home: I am comfortable crating your furry friend, administering medication, and following special feeding instructions if necessary. I send regular photo updates, along with feeding/water updates to ensure you know that your loved ones are safe and cared for.

“Alicia was great! She sent me updates throughout the day, assuring me that my doggo was in great hands. She was also flexible with the pick up time, so my family and I could spend more time exploring Calgary. We will definitely book with her again the next time we’re in town 😊”

“Amazing care takers with lovely dogs and went above and beyond with my dog’s daycare while providing updates regularly. Very nice and passionate people that treat your dog as their own!”

“Jeff was wonderful. If I ever had to board my dog again, I would do it only with Jeff. This was my first time boarding my dog and I was super anxious. Jeff was very methodical, which I thought was great. He made sure our dogs met his dogs and that they got along well before the day of boarding. He asked a bunch of questions about my dog's personality and did exactly what we discussed. He made sure my dog had a great time. He also sent several pictures and videos all day long - this really REALLY put me at ease (and also brought a smile on my face). My dog had such a great time, he just slept all day long for the next two days!”

“Ksenia is a great dog sitter! She is very attentive to Willow's need. She responds all communication in a timely manner and sends lots of photos so I know Willow is doing well. A picture says a thousand words! I definitely recommend Ksenia!”

About: Hi! My name is Zubie. What sets me apart is personalized, flexible care. I’ve been caring for pets and homes for about 8 years, so I understand how important it is to have someone you can truly trust. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and needs, while treating your home with the same care and respect I give my own. Whether your pet stays with me or I care for them in their home, I provide dependable, loving care tailored to what works best for you and your pet. Hello 😊. I go by Zubie. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I’m comfortable building walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, and regular check-ins into my day, while keeping each pet’s usual schedule as consistent as possible. I also have flexibility in my schedule, which allows me to accommodate different routines, care needs, and last-minute changes when possible. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my home or theirs, I make sure they receive plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. I tailor my care to each pet and the service booked. In my home, pets have access to a safe, comfortable environment and a fenced yard for supervised outdoor time, along with walks, playtime, cuddles, and their normal routines. I use proper pet-care and safe walking techniques, with safety being my top priority. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s established schedule and care instructions while treating their home with the same respect I give my own. I’m happy to accommodate feeding schedules, medications, special routines, and individual needs so every pet feels comfortable, secure, and well cared for while their owners are away.

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 Carstairs 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. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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.
