“Wonderful communication - Alexandria took great care of my two cats over the holidays. She was kind and loving with them. She even won over my “suspicious” cat by the end!”
About: Growing up, I had a yellow lab named Jazzy who sadly passed away about 5 years ago. I’ve really missed having a dog in my life since, but my apartment doesn’t allow pets—so I’d love the chance to care for yours. I spend a lot of time around dogs like my dad’s golden retriever, Tucker, and our friend’s Bernese mountain dog, Charlie. Whether it’s going for walks, hikes, playing in the snow, or just relaxing, I genuinely love being around them. Anytime my partner and I see a dog, we get just as excited as dogs do when they see a squirrel—it really shows how much we love them. What sets me apart is that I’m not doing this just for the money—I truly enjoy spending time with dogs and making sure they’re happy, exercised, and well cared for. I’m reliable, easygoing, and will treat your dog like they’re my own. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine. I work as an RMT in Port Coquitlam and Coquitlam with a consistent schedule—Monday 10–4, Tuesday & Thursday 2–8, Friday 12–6:30, and Saturday 9–4. This leaves me available most mornings, evenings, Wednesdays, and Sundays, making it easy to fit in walks, check-ins, or overnight sitting. I’m also able to plan my days ahead of time, so I can stay consistent and reliable for your pet’s routine. When caring for pets, my priority is making them feel safe, comfortable, and sticking to their usual routine as closely as possible. Whether I’m walking your dog or staying in your home, I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and care. I’m attentive to each dog’s personality and needs—whether that’s high-energy walks, slower paced outings, or just spending time keeping them company. I always follow any instructions closely (feeding, routines, medications if needed) and keep a clean, respectful environment in your home. You can trust that your dog will be well looked after, treated with care, and given lots of attention while you’re away.
About: Ever since my childhood, dogs have been an integral part of my life, thanks to my parents who instilled in me a deep love and respect for these wonderful companions. Now, as a proud dog owner myself, I share my days with my beloved canine friend, Bobbi. His presence brings an unparalleled joy, and the bond we share is something truly special. Working from home provides me with the perfect opportunity to shower my furry friend with the attention and care he deserves. Bobbi and I enjoy spending quality time together, be it playing in our fenced yard, going for long walks, or simply lounging indoors. I'm proud to provide a smoke-free and drug-free environment, ensuring the utmost safety and well-being for all our four-legged guests. Photographing dogs has become a passion of mine – capturing their unique personalities and moments of joy brings me immense happiness. Our home is not just a place to stay; it's a haven for dogs to play, relax, and feel cherished. I look forward to extending that love and care to your beloved pets, creating a home away from home for them. I am working from home everyday (8-16). I always take dogs out for potty break before me starting my day. At noon, I will let dogs to have a break in the yard. After work, I normally take dogs for a walk or go to the dog park for 40min-1hr. Before bed, there will be another short potty break. I live in a townhome with my partner where we have a fenced yard where my dog Bobbi always plays his balls there! No kids! No smoking! No drugs!
About: I have 2 years of experience working in a professional grooming salon as a bather, where I gained hands-on experience caring for and handling dogs of all different sizes, personalities, and temperaments. I’m reliable, patient, kind, and genuinely love being around dogs. I also have a dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member. I’ll treat your pup with the same care, attention, and love that I would want for my own dog. Whether it’s going for a walk, getting some playtime in, or simply keeping them company, I want every pup in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and happy! My schedule is currently very flexible! I’m a part-time tattoo artist and typically only take one client per day, Monday through Friday. If I have a tattoo appointment, I’m usually only away for about 1–3 hours, so I have plenty of time available for walks, drop-ins, and pet care throughout the day. I’m also currently a nursing student, but I don’t start school until January, so I have lots of availability right now. I’m happy to work with your schedule and make sure your pup gets the attention, exercise, and care they need! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow their routine and any specific instructions they provide. I want pets to feel comfortable and safe in their own environment, so I give them plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and affection while respecting their individual needs and personality. I’m very reliable and responsible, and I understand how important it is to trust someone in your home and with your pets. I’ll always make sure your pup is well cared for, has everything they need, and gets lots of love while you’re away. I’ll also treat your home with the same care and respect that I would my own.
“Kelly was great with Keira! She was communicative, responsive, diligent and kind. Thank you for accepting my last minute booking! It was a pleasure having you, would rebook for sure and definitely would recommend!”


About: I’ve taken care of many different dogs one that sticks out to me the most is Lulu, she was a rescue from Taiwan and was scared of men. She warmed up to me and we were cuddling in 2 days. Then there was Kilo a big strong pit bull, very strong, but I walked him everyday and we got a long great. The main pets I take care of are my dad’s beagles, Tucker and Fergus. When he’s out of town I feed them and make sure they get cuddles Fergus needs kisses on his forehead before bed so I always do that to. I haven’t bathed a dog in a long time but I know the main thing is to not get soap in their eyes and use special shampoo. I’m currently working full time so I would ideally be dropping by after 5. I can also drop by on weekends, I just haven’t listed it yet. Right now I live in an apartment so I don’t really have a yard but I’m willing to drop by and hangout and play with your dog and even go for a walk.

About: hello im Niki! Having been surrounded by pets during serveral years I have developed a great love for and compassion with animals. And now, being without my own pet for the first time in my life, I do what fills me with happiness and energy; caring for other’s pets. So I offer you my service. As my references will attest I am exceptionally good at what I do. I am a caring, attentive, responsible, detailed oriented person, committed to developing a trusting, safe, and caring relationship with your pet(s) and you😊. Our pets personalities are as diverse as ours, some high energy needing unleashed play and long walks, or more mature ones seeking leisurely strolls and contemplative siting. Although I’m not a self-proclaimed “trainer” or “whisperer”, I do understand the importance of patience, tone, and consistency in working with animals. And I would love the opportunity to get to know you and your pets. Please feel free to contact. However, please note that I live in a townhouse and dogs are not allowed to go on 2nd floor because I find it very hard to clean the carpet. Otherwise I would love to see them going everywhere around my house, even on my bed! Hope you understand. I would also set up a air bed in the living room sometime—just to sleep with your fluffy child! I’m currently working as a full time. Work 5 days per week on Monday-Friday , 8:00-4:00pm. Available before and after work. But I’m flexible and my partner works from home. So your pets will never fell alone! Feel free to inbox me! I'll ensure that your pets are kept safe, clean, well-fed and healthy even when you’re not around. 📝 I provide live updates with lots of pictures and videos, and a detailed log of meals and excretions so you can rest assured. Feel free to reach out anytime! I look forward to hearing from you soon 😊
About: My name is Lynzie. I have been a passionate dog parent and caregiver for over 10 years, with experience handling dogs of all ages, sizes, and special requirements. My journey began with my very first rescue—a Weimaraner born with a disability, which taught me early on the deep patience, gentle handling, and specialized care every unique pet deserves. Over the years, I’ve opened my heart and home to many furry friends in need: Senior & Special Care: I have lovingly cared for a dog through their golden years up to age 17, as well as taken in a rescued senior Pomeranian who needed a quiet, attentive home. I’m very comfortable with senior pet routines, medication administration, and extra TLC. Multi-Pet Management: I am no stranger to managing a big fur family! At my peak—while pregnant with my son—I seamlessly cared for three large dogs and four cats all at the same time. Whether your pet needs playful energetic walks, patient care for physical limitations, or specialized attention for seniors, I bring decades of real-world experience and genuine love to treat your fur babies like my own family. I work from home with a highly flexible schedule (outside of my son's routines), which allows me to easily adapt my daily flow to accommodate your pet's needs and preferences. When caring for pets in your home, my top priority is maintaining their normal daily routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and stress-free while you’re away. Customized Routines: I strictly follow your instructions for feeding, walking, play, and specialized care. Home Security & Cleanliness: I respect your space as if it were my own. I keep the area clean, secure doors/gates/windows, bring in mail or packages, and ensure your home stays tidy and well-cared for. Communication & Peace of Mind: You’ll receive updates with photo and video reports at my each visit, so you always know how your fur babies are doing. Calm & Adaptable Care: With years of experience with pets of all temperaments, I take time to build trust naturally—never forcing interactions with shy or independent pets.
About: Both Becky & Dylan grew up with pets. Becky had 2 large dogs, and Dylan had 2 dogs and multiple cats. We have always had a love for animals, big and small. At this stage in our lives, we do not have any pets of our own. We are the loving auntie/uncle to Becky’s sister’s two dogs, Gus and Hopps; her dad’s dog, Ollie; her uncle’s dog, Moffat, and Dylan’s sister’s cat named Ben. Not to mention, an honorary aunt/uncle to countless friends’ pets. We have had the pleasure of pet-sitting dogs and cats of all ages, including an adorable 15 year old Boston Terrier with various health issues requiring timed medication and a rescue dog that required daily physiotherapy exercises and massage for some muscle and joint pain he was experiencing. Becky works a full-time job Monday-Friday, 8:00am-4:00pm. Dylan is often able to stay with pets during the day and complete daytime walks & playtime. We enjoy spending as much time as possible with the pets we are sitting. We are quiet and respectful working professionals who are committed to providing loving care to your beloved pets in the comfort and familiarity of their own home while you are away.
About: I have worked at a rescue, as well as in ER/ICU. Those jobs have given me hands on experience for giving oral/injectable medicine, as well as what to do in emergencies. I am very interested in dog training and behaviour, and firmly believe in fear free approaches. I have experience with puppies and senior dogs, and know how to handle any temperament or size. I have also worked with guinea pigs, rabbits, birds (large and small), mice, and reptiles. Rover is my full time work, so I am available for whenever needed, barring overlapping visits. I am able to go between houses during the day. I will adhere to instructions left by owner(s), as well as respect that I am in your home. I will make sure your dog feels safe and comfortable, and like they have an extra friend to help them while you are away.
“Justine took great care of my cat Gus over the long weekend. She sent me updates and photos after every visit. It made me happy to be away knowing Gus was being well cared for. I highly recommend Justine!”

“Pamela is an amazing sitter. This was our first time leaving our dog alone for a last minute trip, and I'm glad we chose Pamela. She is straightforward and approachable for any requests we need for our little one. I felt safe knowing our dog is in good hands. She is detailed and gives updates and pictures during the visits, we will definitely be booking with Pamela again, thank you so much!!”

About: I used to have two boston terriers for 15+ years. When they passed away from old age it was really hard for me. They were healthy and just all around perfect dogs for me. I can’t describe with words how much I miss them. I’m not sure if I’ll ever be emotionally ready to own and lose my own dogs again. Right now I’m content with occasionally taking care of your dogs. Your dog/dogs can expect to be spoiled rotten with lots of affection, attentive care & mental stimulation. Any special needs can be catered to if informed ahead of time. All dogs must be house trained(except for puppies) and non aggressive towards other dogs and humans. Please bring all food, bed, toys etc to ensure your dog is not overwhelmed with too much change. I work from home full time typically from Monday to Friday 9-5. I have flexible schedule to take the dogs out for walks. It’s always nice to take a break from work. My place is usually very tidy and air conditioned. I make sure there aren’t any objects they can chew or swallow. Your dog will get one on one attention in a kid and other animal free environment.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Coquitlam
We have had such an incredible experience with Brenna! She is reliable, caring, and clearly goes above and beyond for our dogs. There have even been a couple of times when the app had issues with the lock/door access, and unfortunately I was away on vacation and wasn’t able to help. She handled everything professionally, reached out to our emergency contact, and made sure she was able to get in and take care of the dogs without any stress. She is communicative and trustworthy with our dogs.🥰

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.
