“Karen is exceptionally professional and very reliable. Her love for animals is evident and gives you the peace of mind that your critters are being cared for in your absence. I have already rebooked her!”
“Gina is amazing! She was very accommodating, and showed up on time. Very easy and friendly to communicate with. Caesar enjoyed her company and even warmed up enough to sit on her lap after only the second day. She cleaned up his dish and litter and made sure he got his pills. Will definitely be asking her back next time we go away.”
“Tracey is fantastic ! We will re-book her for sure. Tracey and her Husband are a great team we have even worked with her Daughter Allie ...Great with our Puppy Coffey and Cat Chico. thank you”
About: What sets me apart is my focus on personalized, low-stress walks tailored to your pup’s needs—whether it’s a gentle stroll for seniors or energetic play for puppies plus real-time updates. I volunteered for several years at the humane society, walking dogs daily and working closely with cats to help them feel safe and socialized. In Cochrane, I’m an adoptions counsellor, matching families with their perfect pets. At home, I’ve cared for my own exotic birds for years and of course I have my own little dog, Hanna, (who was the very first client I took out for walks!). I’ve also ridden horses for many years and currently have a rehab horse I’m gently nursing back to health. I absolutely adore all pets especially senior animals and have lots of experience providing the extra patience, gentle care, and attention they need (Hanna is a senior but still thinks she’s a pup…), whether it’s helping with mobility, or just offering quiet companionship. This diverse background equips me with skills in puppy socialization, basic training, senior care, and even unique pets like birds or horses. I love building trust with every animal and their owner, no matter their age or needs! So, I can’t wait to meet yours :) As a university student, I’m reliably available in the evenings for visits or walks. On a given day, I can also fit in early morning walks if that works best for your pet’s schedule, I’m very flexible! Your pet’s safety and happiness come first. In your home I follow your instructions exactly for feeding, routines, playtime, and any special needs. I double-check doors and gates, provide lots of attention and cuddles, and keep everything secure. I treat your home with respect—tidy on arrival, tidier when I leave! You’ll get regular photo updates so you can relax and have that peace of mind you deserve! With my shelter, adoption, and personal animal experience, I’m calm, reliable, and great at helping pets feel safe and loved in their familiar space. Happy to chat about your pet’s needs!
“Zoe was awesome taking our booking with super short notice. She was fast to respond and had great communication. She managed our blind Chihuahua on difficult RV steps, and made friends with our other grumpy Chihuahua. Zoe sent great pictures and updated us after the drop-in. I definitely recommend her.”
“Jacqueline looked after our 17 year old senior cat Rosi and we were initially nervous about having someone new come into our house but our fears were quickly put to rest. Jacqueline stuck to our requested schedule (2x per day) and made a point of communicating every visit to let us know how Rosi was doing, whether she was eating well, and she even took the extra care to vacuum. We have already booked in for the next time we will be away!”
About: I have extensive experience in the pet-care industry. I started doing dog-walking and dog-running for a variety of sizes and breeds. Tailoring walks to their specific energy levels and needs. I then moved on to working in Dog Daycares as a room attendant for about 4 years, I gained lots of experience with pack dynamics, body language, as well as handling a multitude of sizes, breeds, temperaments and needs. I also assisted in boarding operations for daycare and did more hands-on care with medications, feeding schedules, etc. I recently have gained experience in taking care of cats and now have one of my own. Some of my experience is with kittens who needed training and lots of play. Others were elderly and needed special attention, needing to administer medications at specific times. I am a huge animal lover with lots of experience in this field and wish to provide the best possible care for your animals. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine. I have a flexible schedule at the moment and plenty of availability. I want to provide pets focused, hands-on attention and care. After stepping away from large daycare environments I want to continue using my skills gained in this field to provide care for animals, especially those who require fully-present enrichment, attention and excercise and may not do well in group environments and need a dedicated one-on-one caregiver. Creating a safe and trustworthy environment is a top priority for me, I am very experienced in reading dog/cat body language, respecting boundaries and adjusting my approach to every pets specific needs and comfort levels. I have experience with many animals of different sizes, breeds and temperaments and know how to navigate nervousness, anxiety and any other elevated emotions. I communicate clearly with owners so they know their animals are getting the best care possible and notify them of any problems or concerns in regards to their pets safety, health and needs.
“Amira treated Felix like her own and maybe even a little better. Our schedule isnt as regiment and im sure Felix appreciated the attention. We came back to a very happy, well fed and looked after orange cat. Amira was communicative and kept us in the loop with photos and a quick run down of the visit. Her excellent care allowed us to travel with no stress about Felix being at home and we plan on booking with Amira anytime we plan on leaving for a weekend or longer.”
About: Hi! I’m Hunter, a recent Education graduate and lifelong dog lover. I’ve grown up with dogs and genuinely enjoy spending time with them, whether that means getting outside for a good walk, playing, or just giving them some extra attention. My background in education has taught me the importance of patience, responsibility, safety, and being someone people can depend on. I’m used to following specific routines and instructions, communicating professionally, and adapting to different needs and personalities. Through my work in schools, I also have a current Vulnerable Sector Police Information Check. I’m active and enjoy being outdoors, so dog walking is a natural fit for me. I’m happy to adjust walks to your dog whether they need a good energetic outing or prefer to take their time and explore. Pet care is already a regular part of my daily routine. I have two dogs of my own, and I make time every day to care for each of them individually. I take them on separate walks so they each get one-on-one attention, and I also make time for play, exercise, and brushing their teeth. I enjoy making sure they are active, happy, and well cared for, and I understand the importance of maintaining a consistent routine. I prioritize safety, trust, and making sure pets feel comfortable in their environment. I follow the owner’s instructions and routines carefully, including feeding, walking, medication if required, and any specific preferences or rules for their pet.
“She is amazing! My babies absolutely love her. Since the very first booking, I could tell she truly cares and would take great care of them. I always feel at peace knowing they’re in such loving and responsible hands.”
“Tammy was great one more time, taking care of my kitties. It’s the second time we book her visits and we already have a third booking coming up in the next few weeks. Thank you for your support :)”
“Thank you for looking after our kitty while we were away. We especially appreciated your patience with her ear meds and your flexibility with timing. It made a big difference for us knowing she was well cared for.”
“Kristen is fantastic! We know she’s a one of a kind when our Jasper on the second day he eat he’s super infront of her witch tells us allot just from him doing so as he is always shy for a few visits until he gets a feel of you, she’s quick on responding and also great communication and easy to talk with :) ty Kristen for your outstanding performance <3”
About: Hi! My name is Jorja, I’m a vet student, and I’ve been a pet owner for over 10 years. I currently offer dog walking, dog sitting, and drop-in care for dogs of all breeds and sizes. I’m very comfortable handling animals of all temperaments, sizes, and energy levels! I know from personal experience that life can get busy and it’s not always easy to find the time or energy for long walks and consistent care. I’d love to help keep your pup happy, healthy, active, and well cared for while giving you peace of mind. Please feel free to reach out if you’re looking for reliable dog walking, pet sitting, or drop-in care — I’d be happy to chat! I’m currently out of school for the summer, so I have plenty of time to hang out with your furry friends! I spend most of my free time reading, catching up on studies or spending time with my pets, so my schedule is very flexible! In my experience, creating a safe and comfortable environment is one of the most important parts of caring for pets. I strive to build trust with every animal I work with so they feel secure and well cared for, while also giving owners confidence and peace of mind knowing their pets are in good hands during times of need.
“Alexa is amazing! My dogs just love her and that is saying ALOT! I had a work trip planned and thought I had pet sitting all looked after. But last minute my sitter backed out. Alexa stepped up without hesitation. Thank goodness! I highly recommend Alexa. She is a wonderful person and very reliable.”
“Deb is fantastic and we will definitely use her services again in the future! She sent us many photo’s and updates and even made an extra visit. You can tell right away she is great with animals. My cats would say ‘she is great at remembering where the treats are and very friendly even when one of us is grumpy!’ FIVE STAR+ I should also mention the house was kept nice and clean when we returned home. Thanks Deb :)”
About: I’ve had the opportunity to volunteer with dogs, as well as take care of friends pets and give them all the attention and love they deserve 🥰 I am currently working part time and in university, I would love to drop by to care for your pets between classes or stay over throughout the week if your animal needs overnight care. I enjoy keeping pets company throughout the time. Whether it’s during study time, on walks, playing together, or giving them extra cuddles and enrichment after a long day.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Cochrane
Karen did drop in visits for our two cats while we were away on vacation. They both take medication and aren’t the easiest to accept the pills. She went above what we were expecting and played with them and let them get to know her and was able to give them their medication each night. She also sent amazing updates with pictures and treated them like they were her own cats.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

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.
