“We loved having Chelsea here. Snaxx was very happy and calm when we got home (which has been an issue in the past). She stayed with her the whole time and walked her. The house was nice and clean when we got back too, which was great!”
“Meghan house sat for us and watched Yogi - we left feeling confident that we left him in good hands! She updated us with photos of Yogi and we returned to a clean home and happy dog. We will definitely book with Meghan again.”
“C-Jay was a great sitter, I couldn't ask for anyone better! I got photos and updates of my senior miniature poodle Muffin, even without asking for them. C-Jay is detail-oriented as he noticed Muffin's little habits and conditions immediately and throughout his time with her. He is also very considerate as he based his frequency of updates based on my preferences as an owner. A huge plus too was that he left the place as if he was never there. 10/10 would recommend and rebook again if given the chance 🙂”
“It was wonderful to have Andrea house sit our dogs while we were away for two weeks. She sent lots of photos and videos, and they looked like they were having fun and not missing us at all! The house was spotless when we returned.”
About: I'm just as happy taking a dog out on an adventure exploring new environments as I am giving them a calm, relaxed day at home I'm currently back at school and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to prioritize walks, check ins, and quality time throughout the day rather than trying to squeeze it in I care for pets by keeping their routine as consistent and stress-freebasb possible, whether they're in my home or theirs. I follow feeding schedules closely, make sure they get the right amount of exercise and spend equality time with them do they feel comfortable and secure.
About: I offer dependable, on-time and super attentive drop-in care just for cats. With over a decade of experience caring for pets for family and neighbours, I know that a consistent routine is essential for a happy cat. When I visit, I’m all about your cat’s happiness: I’ll make sure they get the right food, fresh water, a daily scoop of the litter box and lots of playtime or just some quiet cuddles. I’m very organized, talkative and always send you updates and photos so you can always see how your furry friend is doing. I’m happy to bring in the mail, water your houseplants or adjust the blinds while I’m checking on your cat. I usually work from home, but I’m happy to adjust my schedule to better suit your needs. Weekends are open, so if you’re on vacation, I can either pop in for a visit or board them with me. This cozy home is filled with plenty of toys for your cats. They’ll enjoy the solarium, where they can watch the birds. I’ll keep the litter box clean and make sure fresh water is always available.
“Paula took great care of our two cats. Was always in contact with us; and answered texts promptly. Excellent communication. You can tell she really cares about animals. Will definitely use her services again.”
“Kerry was incredibly attentive to my pets needs, I felt comfortable and safe leaving them in her care. She was professional, kind and friendly. As someone who is very protective of my pets, I would happily recommend Kerry to anyone looking for someone they can trust, 10/10 from me”
“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.”
About: My pet care experience is a combination of both professional work and pet parenting. 🐕 🐾 I worked for four years at a dog daycare, grooming, and training facility where I assisted with supervision, feeding, training and handling of dogs, cats and small animals including those who were puppies, seniors, anxious, or had special health issues. I also gained a lot of experience in reading canine body language and assessing dynamics between dogs. I hold Professional Dog Walker's Certification (2019) from Langara College. This program included Pet First Aid Certification and training in areas such as dog behaviour, risk mitigation, and safe, mentally stimulating dog-walking. I have also cherished pets of my own for a good part of my life. My pets have included dogs, cats, rats, hamsters, fish and frogs. My adopted miniature pinscher, Rusty, who passed from cancer in 2024, made a significant impact on me and made me the pet caregiver I am today. He was an anxious and reactive dog, and I remained dedicated to maximizing his comfort and supporting him with compassion and patience. Through my personal pet experiences, I understand the unconditional love and unmatched bond between you and your pet. 💞 I will therefore always treat your pet with the same attentiveness, love and attention that I did my own. I am fully transparent about any issues or health concerns that I might notice during the sitting, and you will receive frequent updates and photographs from me so that you know what your pet is up to at any time. I am available for house sitting on weekends and holidays. My available hours begin Friday evening, and end Sunday evening. For holidays, I am available the evening before and can stay with your pet until the evening of the stat holiday. Your pet will receive attention and care specific to their needs. For example, this may include a special feeding schedule, frequent potty breaks, or training specific behaviours. Additionally, I will maintain the cleanliness of your home and your pet's items and areas, and be aware of any hazards that might be present for your pet. You will receive frequent updates (including photos!) from me.
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: Animals have been in my life since I was little! From horses, to duckies, cats, doggos you name it. Being able to care for them however I can makes me so content. My last dog I had was 14 and a half and she was my family dog from when I was young and I took care of her solo for the last 8 years of her life and she was my bestest friend. Now I have two kitties I love and care for and am so willing to be able to help and support whoever needs that for their furry friend. :) I work part to full time at a restaurant that's a 3 minute walk to from home. So if I need to go home on a break and let the pet out to do their business or a quick walk it's easily accessible. I live near great parks and also have a big back yard. If there needs to be a designated day for the pet, my schedule is flexible and I can book days off when needed or switch days around if need be. The hours will very rarely go past 6 hours. If so I can let my current job know of other priorities with a bit of notice. I have two very friendly kitties who are familiar and comfortable with dogs. I have an open concept house on the top floor and have a large fenced back yard with lots of room to run around. I am an organized and clean individual who takes pride in my home and also respectful and tidy when staying in any home that isn't mine.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since a young age. I’ve had many neighbors, family, and friends trust me to care and love for their dogs I will have lots of time to play with your pups! I’m currently available any day or time of the week and weekends if needed I have a big fenced in yard and one very loving Pomeranian who loves to be friends with anything and everyone. I do also have 2 cats one is an inside cat and once an outside cat, they are both very friendly.
“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! 😊”
“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!!”
“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!”
About: I have had dogs my whole life and absolutely adore them. I am easy to get along with and respectful of people’s time and schedules. I currently work part time and I am a student. I do have lots of free time though and love to be outside or with animals. I will not be available to have animals in my apartment. I do have a vehicle that I can take dogs somewhere in the community.
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.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Chilliwack
We appreciated how communicative and thoughtful C-Jay was while caring for our dog and home. He took the time to check in about our dog’s behaviours and preferences, asked permission before making decisions involving the house, and treated our home with care. We also appreciated receiving regular updates and photos throughout the stay. His communication was always kind and considerate, and it was clear he wanted both us and our dog to feel comfortable while we were away.

Madison was wonderful! Our pets were minimally excited when we got home from our trip and I believe it was because they had such a great time with Madison. Our dog can be anxious so the fact that he was relaxed and content when we got home speaks to the care Madison gave him. We will definitely book her again the next time we go on a trip.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Chilliwack on Rover is $49.39 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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.
Tip: 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, identity 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.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a veterinary professional or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means Rover Support will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
