About: I have experience with a wide array of animal care and pet sitting - from elderly cats and dogs that need physical and medical assistance, to puppies and kittens that need constant attention and stimulation. I have been entrusted by friends and family for years to be the designated animal sitter due to my flexible schedule as a student, and my calming and quiet nature with animals. I am currently a full time university student with a relatively flexible schedule. I am free most weekends and some weekdays for morning or evening appointments! I have an indoor cat I sometimes takes for walks outdoors in a carrier. My family dog is walked on a harness, and spends his time in our fenced in backyard when he decides he would like to get some fresh air!

Megan has great experience with dogs. When meeting our shepherd mix, we could quickly tell that he would be in good hands. She engaged with him not just physically, but mentally, which is so good for his well-being and behavior. We couldn't be happier, and came home to a relaxed and happy boy. We will definitely consider having Megan drop-in again. Thank you, Megan!

About: I've had the joy of caring for dogs for over 20 years, both my own and for friends and family. From energetic puppies to gentle seniors, I’ve provided everything from playful walks to medication support and cozy cuddle time. I’m retired and home full time, so your dog will get lots of attention, regular potty breaks, and loving supervision throughout the day. What sets me apart is the calm, nurturing environment I provide. I treat every dog like part of the family! with patience, kindness, and affection. I understand that each pet has unique needs, and I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in my care. Whether your pup needs a quiet place to relax, a slow paced walk, or just someone to sit with them on the couch, I’m here to help. My gentle nature and calm home are especially ideal for senior dogs, shy pups, or dogs who need a little extra reassurance while you’re away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. As a dog owner and lover, I’m home full time and available throughout the day to give your pup the love, attention, and care they deserve. Whether it’s morning potty breaks, midday walks, or evening cuddle time, I’m here and fully present. My son Alexander also helps out daily, especially with walks, playtime, and making sure your dog gets plenty of attention and companionship. Between the two of us, your pet will never be left alone, we work together to keep their routine consistent, stress free, and full of love. Weekdays and weekends are both flexible for us, so we’re able to accommodate early drop offs & late pickups! I live in a quiet, pet friendly strata complex with a fenced grassy backyard, perfect for safe & supervised potty breaks and some fresh air. When more activity is needed, I take dogs on leashed walks in our peaceful neighborhood to give them a change of scenery and a chance to stretch their legs. Inside, there’s plenty of room for zoomies, toys, and relaxed downtime. I keep the home calm, clean, and free of hazards, and I always make sure your pet has a cozy space to feel safe and comfortable. Your dog will be supervised throughout the day and never left alone for long. I also believe that clear communication is key. I’ll always ask about your dog’s routine, preferences, and any special needs. Whether it's feeding times, potty routines, or favorite toys, I’ll make sure your pet feels right at home. Your pup's well being, safety, and happiness are my top priorities and with my son Alexander helping me every step of the way, your furry friend will always have a familiar, caring presence by their side.

About: Hi! My name is Trinity, and caring for animals has been such a huge part of my life for many years now. I have just under 5 years of hands-on experience working in a professional dog boarding and daycare environment, where I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, temperaments, and energy levels. Through this experience, I’ve become very confident handling everything from playful puppies and high-energy dogs to senior dogs and those who may need a little extra patience, structure, or reassurance. I am certified in kennel environment dog first aid, so your pet’s safety and wellbeing are always my top priority. I understand how important it is to leave your pets with someone you can fully trust, and I always strive to provide care that makes both pets and owners feel comfortable, safe, and supported. Alongside my daycare and boarding experience, I have also been house sitting professionally for the past 4 years. During that time, I’ve cared for pets in their own homes, helping maintain their normal routines and providing them with comfort, companionship, exercise, and lots of love while their families are away. I know how important consistency is for animals, and I do my best to make their time away from you as stress-free and enjoyable as possible. I’ve also had the opportunity to work with police dogs and service dogs, which has given me valuable experience working with highly trained dogs that require confidence, structure, and attentive handling. In addition to dogs, I’ve worked at a facility that also cared for cats, so I’m comfortable caring for feline friends as well and understand that every cat has their own unique personality and comfort level. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply having a calm and caring companion around, I always take the time to get to know their individual needs and personality. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, happy, loved, and well cared for while you’re away, because I truly treat every animal as if they were my own. I currently work and attend school part-time, but I always do my best to be flexible and accommodate your pet’s needs. I’m available to stop by before work or school to let your pup out, provide care, or spend some time with them. If you’re looking for care at other times throughout the day, feel free to reach out and I’ll do my best to work around my schedule whenever possible! I have exclusively house sat in my clients’ homes, which allows pets to stay comfortable in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routine. Before any booking, I make sure I have your pet’s routine clearly written out and fully understand their needs, habits, and expectations. I also ensure I have all necessary tools, supplies, and information prepared before handling or caring for your dog, so we are both set up for a safe, smooth, and successful experience. I believe preparation, consistency, and patience are key to building trust and providing the best possible care for your pets.

About: I’ve had a variety of pets since I was little and cared for them well. I am the go to for my friends and family when they are away. I’ve taken care of cats, dogs, rabbits, birds and fish. I currently work from home so I am flexible with my availability daily and weekly. I also have a separate space for pets who need their own area to feel comfortable if they are staying with me. I have parks and trails for daily dog walking. I am able to be flexible with pets needs in my home or at a client’s home.

About: My experience is built on formal training, industry work, and personal pet parenting. This background gives me a deep understanding of dog body language and a strong focus on risk mitigation. I offer premium, one-on-one care using positive reinforcement, and I'm experienced with high-energy pets, seniors, and sensitive, special-needs animals. I treat every pet with the same love, respect and attentiveness that I give my own. I also believe in total transparency, so you’ll get regular updates and plenty of photos to keep you connected while you're away. I maintain a structured, professional full-time schedule from Monday to Friday. I am available for drop-in visits, private walks, and overnight house sitting during evenings, weekends, and holidays. Your pet will receive care tailored completely to their unique needs, whether that means a specialized feeding schedule, slow walks with plenty of time to sniff, or reinforcing specific training behaviours. For your pup's safety, I strictly adhere to an on-leash policy at all times during our walks, even in designated off-leash areas. To prevent accidental slips, I require all dogs to be fitted with both a secure collar and a harness. During house sitting and drop-in visits, I maintain the absolute cleanliness of your home and awareness of any environmental hazards. I will keep you fully connected with frequent updates and photos!

About: Throughout my life, I have cared for animals, primarily dogs. I am continually expanding my experience. For eleven years now, I have been vegan, which illustrates my compassion for animals. I am looking for extra work outside my regular schedule. I am available all day on weekends, as well as mornings, late afternoons and evenings during the weekdays. I have never owned a dog before, but I’m hopeful I will someday. I have taken care of dogs through family and friends, and I am constantly expanding my experience in this area. I plan to care for your dog with compassion, skill, attentiveness, and a sense of adventure.

About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and for the past year and a half, I've been lucky enough to turn that passion into daily dog walking and care. Whether it’s getting pups out for a fun, enriching walk or making sure they get love and attention while you’re away, I’m here to ensure your dog feels safe, happy and cared for. I take the time to get to know each dog individually. Some love adventure and long walks, while others need a slower pace or a little extra patience - and I’m happy to adjust to whatever makes your dog comfortable. I’m also experienced with some leash training and helping nervous dogs feel at ease. I have my current pet first aid certificate so I’m prepared to handle unexpected situations calmly and confidently. I keep pet parents in the loop with regular updates and photos, so you can relax knowing your pup is in good hands. Looking forward to meeting you and your pup! I provide full time pet care, so I have availability throughout the week, Monday to Friday. I also have some availability on weekends for pet sitting. I am unable to provide pet care services at my home. However, I am happy to provide pet sitting services at your location where your dog can feel most comfortable.

About: I am an experienced dog walker and cat/dog sitter from Chicago, IL! I worked with a private dog walking company as well as providing many years of cat and dog sitting to clients in my neighborhood. I am studying animal welfare at UBC and getting my PhD in dairy cattle welfare, so I am very passionate about animal behaviour and wellbeing. I own two wonderful cats and have worked in a cat clinic administering medicine in the past. I have lots of experience reading cat behaviour and providing companionship for them! I additionally volunteered as a dog walker at a shelter in Chicago for years and was trained on how to walk dogs with behavioural issues. I would love the opportunity to be around dogs more, as I can't have one with my two cats, and am away from the dogs I used to sit in Chicago! I am a current grad student so I have extreme flexibility! I can make almost every day or time work for checking in on or walking your pet. I am someone who cares about safety and wellbeing over all else (hence the animal welfare PhD!) and will make sure your pet is safe and happy. I have many years of experience and am very cautious when taking care of someone's pet!

About: Hi, I’m Rochelle! Dogs have been my world for over 20 years, from training and showing to caring for all kinds of breeds and personalities. I have a special place in my heart for anxious dogs and love helping them feel safe, calm, and content while you’re away. I’m also comfortable giving medications and following special routines. Every dog I care for becomes part of my family, happy, loved, and treated like my own ❤️ Caring for dogs is part of my daily flow. I work from home, so I’m always around to give attention, playtime, and comfort throughout the day. Walks, cuddles, and calm time all fit naturally into my routine it’s simply how I live, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. Whether it’s in my home or a client’s home, it’s a safe and welcoming space where your dog will be treated like they are part of the family🏡❤️. I provide regular updates, photos and videos so you can see how your fur baby is doing 🐾 I specialize in caring for dogs with anxiety, helping them feel secure, understood, and at ease while you’re away. I’m also experienced and comfortable administering medications, ensuring your pet’s routine is followed with care. Whether it’s a senior dog who needs a gentle hand, a puppy learning the ropes, or an anxious dog who needs extra reassurance, I tailor each stay to meet their individual needs. Dogs pick up on energy, so I lead with calm confidence, patience, and genuine affection. Reliability, compassion, and intuition guide everything I do. This isn’t just a job for me it’s a lifelong passion to care for your pets as if they were my own ❤️🐕🐾

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and truly can’t imagine life without them. I currently share custody of my golden retriever Flynn, having dogs has taught me so much about patience, consistency, and how important it is to give dogs both structure and love. I also had the incredibly meaningful experience of fostering a rescue dog through Barney’s Furry Friends. She was found abandoned and needed patience, structure, and a lot of love to feel safe again. That experience taught me so much about building trust, understanding dog behavior, and supporting dogs with anxiety or past trauma. Because of this, I’m very attentive, compassionate, and tuned into each dog’s unique personality and needs. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, or somewhere in between, I aim to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for like they’re my own. I’ve also cared for several friends’ dogs and currently help look after a golden retriever in my neighborhood, so I’m comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. Whether it’s a relaxed drop-in visit, an energetic walk, or just spending quality time keeping your dog company, I’m happy to adapt to what your dog needs. I’m reliable, attentive, and genuinely enjoy being around dogs. I can also support basic training like reinforcing good leash manners and simple commands if that’s something you’re working on. My goal is to make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and well cared for while giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. 🐾 Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. I currently help care for my own dogs as well as a dog in my neighborhood, so I’m very used to planning my day around walks, check-ins, and making sure dogs get the attention and exercise they need. While I do currently have another job, I’m actively building my dog walking and pet care services with the goal of making this my full-time focus. I’m committed to being reliable, communicative, and consistent, and I carefully manage my schedule to ensure every dog I care for gets the time and attention they deserve. I genuinely love incorporating dog care into my day it doesn’t feel like work to me, and I’m excited to continue growing this into something long-term. 🐾 I provide pet care in a safe, attentive, and structured way, always prioritizing each pet’s comfort and well-being. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walk routines, medications if needed, and any specific rules the owner has in place. For dog walks and drop-in visits, I ensure pets are always securely leashed and supervised at all times. I avoid off-leash areas unless explicitly approved by the owner, and I pay close attention to the dog’s behaviour, environment, and safety during every visit. While I do not have a fenced yard and I only have my own dogs part-time, this service is focused on walks and in-home care, where pets remain under direct supervision. I make sure every pet feels calm, cared for, and safe, and I always provide updates so owners have peace of mind while they’re away.

Rover makes it easy to find sitters who are available during your working hours. To find sitters who fit your schedule, select which days of the week and the time slots you'd like a sitter to visit. The search results will populate sitters whose calendars match your needs. You can also search for sitters by location, whether that’s a sitter near your office for day care drop-off or a sitter close to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or travelling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer poop breaks during a Chilliwack stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover based on what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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 Chilliwack 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 .

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.

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 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.
