“We (and our dog) LOVE Natasha. Our dog didn't just get boarded, he went on pup-cation with her! He came back home rested and content. I don't even think he missed us to be honest. She sent us lots of photos and videos while we were away and we really appreciated that. She took such good care of our baby and we will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Erika was wonderful! 10/10 recommend! Very friendly & quick to respond & communicate. Our fur baby ‘Meatballs’ was well taken care of and we got pics & updates daily. We really appreciated having someone we could trust & Erika will be our first pick moving forward for our little pug.”
“Leigh-Ann was wonderful! We had a bunch of changes of dates and then we ended up not even going on our trip and Leigh-Ann was super accommodating during a stressful time for us, we felt better knowing Charlie was well cared for! We would gladly book again!”
“Kesi was great to deal with! Very accommodating and reliable. Daily updates let me know how my boy was doing and put my mind at ease. Very pleased with the level of care provided while I was away. 10/10 recommend. Thank you again, so much!”
“I felt completely at ease leaving our new pups with Jessica. They got loads of care & attention and walks. It was our new puppy’s first weekend away and I was so glad for him to have such a positive experience. I’m sure he will be looking forward to going back!”
About: I’m a lifelong dog lover who grew up with golden retrievers, and I’ve been dog-sitting in Nelson for over two years. I’ve cared for puppies, seniors, high-energy dogs, and easygoing couch companions, and I enjoy adapting to whatever pace your pup prefers. I love taking dogs out on Nelson’s beautiful trails for fresh air and adventure. Whether your dog wants to sniff every tree or prefers a more relaxed stroll, I’m all about making their time with me tail-waggingly fun! With a flexible work schedule, I’m able to accommodate a wide range of routines, visits, and energy levels. I’m all about making sure your dog feels comfortable, safe, and happy while you’re away—because every pup deserves to have a good time, even if their human is off doing human things. I am currently working a casual schedule. I am available for morning, afternoon and evening walks! I am available for pet sitting during the week or weekend! I have my own suite that has access to a grassy area out front. I am a few minutes walk to the graveyard trails. Dogs that stay with me will be taken on morning walk, mid afternoon walk and a longer nature walk in the early evenings!
“Roberta was simply sensational with Kane. It was his first time staying with someone else for 2 weeks and I was a little unsettled. Roberta certainly eased my anxiety by sending almost daily pictures of Kane and his various activities throughout the day. Based on Roberta's messages and pictures I knew Kane was in a loving home-away-from home during his 2 weeks vacation. I strongly recommend Roberta for puppy/dog care as she truly loves puppies and dotes on them during their stay with her. I will definitely use Roberta in the future as I know Kane will be very well looked after and loved!”

“I couldn’t believe how easily my dog warmed up to Mia and Jacob. She did even cry when I said goodbye! She certainly created a safe and loving atmosphere for my dogs first weekend with a babysitter away from home. Highly recommend!”
“Quinn was a great dogsitter. She communicated easily and often and assured me, especially in the first day or two, that my dog was doing great. I would not hesitate to hire Quinn again to take care of my dog.”

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Castlegar 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 Castlegar
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. 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.
