“Katie did very well with my anxious Dane with separation anxiety. She was very patient and knowledgeable about how to make my dog comfortable. I would use Katie again!”

About: Hi! I have been dog sitting for four years and I’ve sat more than 30 dogs while working from home. My partner and I have our own rescue baby, a three year old pup named Rumour, and I have a dog back home, a now old boy, named Mocha. My sister has a bearded dragon rescue named Ben who I consider my niece and we're pretty sure she (the lizard) hates us, but we love her regardless. We're both more fond of pets than we are of people and we'd love to host your pets when you're away. We'll make sure to give them plenty of yard time and attention so they don't miss you too much, and cater to any food/walk requirements they may have. My girl is good with other animals and is allowed free access anywhere in the house or yard, but if your pets have a no bed/no couch/no off-leash rules we can help reinforce that! We have a 2 bedroom on the first floor of a landed home, a big yard for the dogs to run around and plenty of room and enrichment toys for cats and dogs inside the house. I do shift work or work from home and my partner goes in about 2 days in the week so at least one of us is always available at home to provide constant supervision! We have taken care of puppies and senior dogs as well, and I can administer oral medication and prepare home cooked food if required. We have also been cat-sitting for about 2 years and we both volunteer at the cat-shelter once every week. We have a car and a dog safety seat belt in case your pet needs to be picked up or needs the vet, or if they just like car rides! We can't wait to meet your babies ♥️ I work remotely as a designer and I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to cater to any kind of walking/feeding schedule that a pet might need I have the time and energy to keep an eye on your baby and adhere to any safety/health precautions you have set up in your home
About: My primary concern is the Health & Welfare of your Fur baby! I possess K9 First Aide and also a Alberta Health & Safety Advisor. Caring for pets as my primary source of income. I will love and care for them as I would love & care my own dogs. I am bonded, insured, I am a certified Health & Safety Advisor and possess K9 first Aide. I love to see healthy well rounded animals.

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Coalhurst 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 Coalhurst 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 Coalhurst 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 .
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Payment is handled securely through Rover. For a one-time booking, 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 .

- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
