“I highly recommend Karen. This is not my first experience with her. She is exceptionally reliable and cares greatly for your fur kids while you are away. Couldn’t ask for better!”
“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.”
“Gayle made sure that our kitty was well looked after while we were gone and made sure we got plenty of updates and pictures, too. She was extremely punctual and caring and I will definitely book with her again!”
“Gina gave our cats excellent care when we are away on vacation. We received photos and an update each day to put our minds at ease. They were happy as can be upon our return! Thank you for taking such great care of our beloved fur babies.”
“Whitney is so good with our cat, Peach. She’s attentive to what she needs and even brings fun toys!! I can tell Peach enjoys her visits and we are grateful to have her 🙂”
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!
“Tracey always does such a great job looking after our cat. Might not be as much work as a dog but she puts in just as much effort providing me with great updates and much needed love for our cat. Thanks Tracey!”
“We will 100% be using Morgan and her son Bowen again! They stayed at our home for several days and took amazing care of our two very spoiled cats. Morgan is so sweet, calm, and clearly has a natural way with animals — our cats took to her and Bowen right away, even the shy one only took a day to come out of hiding. Bowen is the cutest little helper and brings such a happy energy. Morgan sent regular updates which totally put us at ease while we were away. So grateful to have found them!”
“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.”
About: As a family of six we ran a dog boarding care facility for over a decade. Fur babies have been our companions for most our lives. We enjoy outdoor exercise time with dogs. The company of a pet while relaxing at home is second to none. Life is only as good as the company you keep. We are a stay at home business owning family. With 6 of us and our friends and family coming or going throughout the day there is someone almost always home. Our boys are 22, 20 and 18 years and our daughter is now 9 years of age. We love cuddles and outdoor walks/jogs with dogs. Over night stays welcome or Pawsitive Pet Playcare! We are happy to accommodate your regular routine so your pet care is consistent while you are away. In Summer 2023, we welcomed a Yorkshire terror into our family. She’s been fun. Seen as dogs come with various personalities and traits we will enjoy getting to know your dog and socializing yours with ours. We can separate our dog from yours if necessary. If your dog is allowed to be on couch or bed we can accommodate that at our home.
About: I have a huge passion for dogs and taking care of their needs! I grew up with a boxer and an old English bulldog. I raised them from puppies and gave them the best home possible! I have helped many of my friends with their dogs, I have stayed in house for people watching their pets and dogs while they were away. I would love to use my services to come along side you and help you with your furry friends to give them fun and playful walks, pee breaks, feeds or whatever it is you may need! I really look forward to speaking with you soon and meeting your puppies and dogs! Please feel free to send me any questions you may have! -Elly I am currently available any day after 5:30pm, Saturdays after 1:00pm and Sundays anytime!

Please do not hesitate to let me know!
About: I have over 7 years of experience caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to seniors needing extra support. I’ve also volunteered for more than 3 years with Alberta Animal Rescue Crew Society, where I worked hands on with dogs of all breeds, personalities, and special needs. This experience gave me a strong foundation in understanding canine behavior and providing individualized care. I also have training through AARCS, along with experience training my own dogs, so I’m comfortable reinforcing positive behaviors and helping dogs feel secure and confident. What sets me apart as a sitter is my patience and calm approach, I understand that every dog has their own personality, and I always take the time to build trust and create a safe, comfortable environment. Whether your pup needs structured walks, enrichment activities, medication, or plenty of attention, I’m committed to meeting their needs with care and reliability. Pet care is a natural part of my weekly routine. I have flexibility to prioritize time for walks, play, feeding, and check-ins. Whether it’s early morning walks or afternoon drop-ins I’m able to plan my schedule around the needs of the pets I’m caring for. I follow your instructions closely to keep your pet’s routine consistent and stress free, including feeding and administering medications if needed. For walks, I ensure all leashes and harnesses are secure before heading out and stay attentive to surroundings to keep your pet safe. I also provide regular updates and photos so you know how your pet is doing.

“Our experience with Jacqueline was a 10/10! She gave our cat the royal treatment from start to finish. Not only did she provide extra care and feeding she also left our home immaculate. We received fun pics and updates every day and it was clear that she really loves cats, as much as we do! I would highly recommend Jacqueline for any pet care - she is super responsible.”
“Christopher was AMAZING with Jasper!! It was our first time using the app for drop-in and we’re so happy with the results! He made Jasper feel so comfortable and he was able to get him out of he’s comfort zone and get playing, thank you so much!”

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.
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 :)

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.
