“Meghan H. Is capable and compassionate. She interacted in an engaging and fun way from minute one. She came to house sit with my pack of three, and send pictures while I was away so I could see my pups in action.”
“Chelsea is so great! We got so many updates, Frankie was very well taken care of and our house was in perfect condition when we got back. Definitely the best experience we’ve had with a rover sitter thus far. Thank you Chelsea!”
“Kevin came and met our dogs a few times before dog/house sitting. He showed a genuine interest and liking to each of them. He took notes to make sure he remembered the important things. While away he sent multiple updates, pictures and videos illustrating his interaction with them. It sure eased any anxiety of leaving them. Would highly recommend Kevin to care for home and your dogs.”
“Paula was great, super friendly. She took our dog for a hike right away to distract her after we left, and also sent us lots of photo updates so we knew our pooch was in good hands.”
“We had Kerry watch our two dogs for a week. Right before we left, one dog started limping. Kerry went above and beyond … took him to the vet (with our approval), gave him meds, and re-arranged her schedule so she could be home with him. We are so grateful for the care Kerry provided while we were away. We also found Kerry to be very organized, with great communication throughout the stay. As a bonus, she left the house very clean. We would definitely use Kerry again.”
“Sheeba took excellent care of our dog! She sent pictures and updates that let us know our pup was comfortable and enjoying herself with toys and walks, which put our minds at ease. I think Mina fell in love with Sheeba (and Dave) and asked to stay with them again. 😉 Highly recommend!”
“I highly recommend Jeanot and Nicole! It was very obvious that Tucker's care and comfort were their #1 priority. Jeanot sent me regular updates, took Tucker on lots of walks, and went above and beyond when Tuck wasn't feeling well. Very grateful to have found such awesome sitters!”
“Megan was Awesome! She was on time and had positive energy. She did everything I asked like taking all the pics I asked for, being sweet to Tonka and feeding him ect. Thanks Megan!!”
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. As a pet parent myself, I also have experience with pet grooming and administering medications if needed.
“Christina was great with sitting my cat and dog! My pup was absolutely enamoured with her. My cat has high needs, needs eye drops multiple times throughout the day, oral medications, and can't reliably get around and Christina was able to keep him safe and comfortable. Thank you so much for all you've done for them!”
“Amazing!!! I felt so comfortable with Jen and she took the best care of our baby. It was the first time we have left him so we were quite anxious but she went above and beyond! Will definitely be booking again!”
About: We’re experienced, reliable pet sitters with a genuine love for animals of all kinds. Through TrustedHousesitters, we’ve completed around 20 sits caring for a wide range of pets - everything from tiny Chihuahuas to large Akitas, energetic puppies to senior animals needing extra patience and care. We’re comfortable with different temperaments, routines, and special needs, including administering medication and supporting older pets. Animals have always been a big part of our lives. I grew up on a farm surrounded by chickens, ducks, horses, pigs, cats, dogs, hamsters, and gerbils, so caring for animals comes naturally to me. Felipe grew up with dogs and even helped start a community initiative in Colombia to find homes for street dogs - something he’s really passionate about. What sets us apart is the level of care and attention we give. Your pet won’t just be “looked after,” they’ll be genuinely cared for, engaged with, and loved. Pet care fits easily into our daily routine because we both work and study remotely. I work 8am–4pm PST with a lunch break and flexible breaks throughout the day, while Felipe has a fully flexible self-study schedule. This means one (or both) of us is almost always available for walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship. We’re currently travelling while pet sitting and are looking for opportunities in Metro Vancouver and the Fraser Valley. We treat every home with respect and every pet like they’re our own. We’re experienced in: Administering medication Handling pets with different temperaments Cleaning, feeding, and maintaining routines Coordinating vet or grooming visits if needed We love staying active, so if your dog enjoys long walks or hikes, we’re more than happy to provide that extra level of exercise and enrichment. Above all, we focus on keeping your pet safe, happy, and comfortable in their familiar environment while you’re away.
About: I have always had cats and dogs growing up. I have a beautiful lab/shepherd named Daphne and a fluffy cat named Mini at home <3. I am an avid outdoors woman and love exercise and nature. I take Daphne down to the river daily :) she loves to explore and play as much as I do. My partner and I manage pet care with ease. We take Daphne to grandpas when we are both away. I work a 9-5 work week Mon-Fri. I am available after work weekdays, and anytime weekends. :) I treat all pets as if they were my own, and same goes for a clients home. I am a nurturing and loving individual; caring for others and animals comes easy. :)
“Rebecca watched my dog Poppy for a night in my home and also did a few drop ins. Poppy is an anxious 90 lb senior dog. Rebecca was patient and kind with her, allowing Poppy to warm up to her. I appreciated her flexibility, adjusting her drop in times as needed to fit our schedules and make sure Poppy had her needs met when we were gone. I would be happy to book Rebecca's services in the future.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Chilliwack
Was very happy Chelsey was able to look after IzzyBella our 2 year old cat. Izzy has trust & safety issues as she had a very rough start to her life and was in a shelter for the first 7 months of her life. We knew Izzy would be nervous and appreciated Chelsey's calm demeanour and patience.
Connor stayed at our home and looked after our two medium-sized dogs for over two weeks, and he did an absolutely wonderful job. He followed all instructions carefully—including administering medication—and kept us consistently updated with messages, photos, and daily notes about the dogs’ activities and moods. Connor never hesitated to ask questions when needed and was always open, flexible, and cooperative whenever the dogs needed something different or when unexpected situations came up at our house. On three occasions, we asked for additional help at the last minute, and Connor went out of his way to accommodate our requests without hesitation. When we returned home, both dogs were calm, happy, and clearly well cared for—no signs of anxiety, just two content pups who had obviously enjoyed their time with their new friend. We feel very lucky to have met Connor, and he is definitely part of the pack now! Thank you, Connor—keep up the great work! 😊
We love Janice! We are extremely pleased with Janice’s services. She has house sat for us, cared for our dog, and regularly takes him for walks - and every time she goes above and beyond. Our dog also loves her, and we always feel completely at ease knowing he is in her care. Janice is reliable, kind, and communicates well with updates and photos. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring walker/sitter.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Chilliwack is $49 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $42 and $67 per night.

As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

Enter your address and booking dates to see which sitters are available near you. You can also message multiple sitters to improve your chances of finding the right care.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Chilliwack maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Garbage & recycling: Taking garbage bins to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Chilliwack walking routes, the location of your favourite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
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!
You can find what you need to review a sitter on their profile before booking with them. Each sitters’s profile on Rover shows verified reviews, a background check, and ratings to give a glimpse of how their previous visits went. You can also use the Meet & Greet to walk through your home, identifying which areas, like your bedroom, are off-limits or not. Requesting details of your home security through the app can also be a good way to have your sitter keep you updated about your home.
If you have security cameras or doorbells, Rover asks that you disclose them to sitters before you book.
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.
Payment is handled securely through Rover. For a one-time booking, your payment method is charged at the time of checkout when you submit your booking request. This charge will include fees payable to Rover. Your booking is confirmed once the sitter accepts it.
If the request is not accepted, the pending charge is released in 1-7 days. How long it takes to disappear from your account depends on your payment provider.
For eligible recurring weekly services, you are charged for the first week when you book and then each Monday for the upcoming week. You’ll see the full price before you confirm. Always pay through Rover so your booking remains eligible for the Rover Guarantee and support.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
