About: Loving pet carer with over 20 years experience with dogs and cats. I offer daytime walks, daycare at my home, drop ins, and overnight care. Being an at-home parent my hours are fairly flexible on weekdays, and on weekends by request. We currently have one kitten of our own living at home, your pet would have to be comfortable with that. IMPORTANT For stays in my home: I do have two children at home (a 6yr old and a 10yr old) so for any bookings at my home I can only take in pets who are comfortable being around children. They have grown up around dogs, cats, and farm animals. I always take care to ensure that pets have space for themselves and that the children treat them respectfully, but I am unable to take in pets that may be extremely timid or aggressive with children. I am a stay at home Mum, and work part-time at home. So my schedule is fairly flexible, pets are not left on their own unless it’s for short periods. I’m happy to work with clients to accommodate their drop off and pick up times. Dogs have access to our fully fenced yard and a park just down the block. I never let a dog outside in our yard without me being present. I work from home allowing my schedule to be flexible to help accommodate your needs. Available weekdays and weekends, can be available on short notice. have a fenced in yard, where dogs can enjoy supervised play and potty breaks. I am able to contain dogs or cats to my family room/kitchen or living room if needed and happy to accept crates if needed.
“Viktoriia is so sweet and kind, I knew my dog would be so happy to see her and spend a little time with her, and he was! She sent me the cutest photo of him beaming at her. Will definitely be reaching out to her again next time I need a dog sitter :)”


“Ellie is exceptional! This was my first time booking through Rover and Ellie made the whole process stress-free and easy. She is prompt with responding and sending update photos and write ups on how the visits go. I cannot express enough the quality of attention and love she gave to my cat. I highly recommend her and will book with her again!”

“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!”

“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: Your pets will be well cared for and loved. We have experience in all aspects of general dog care; training, feeding, giving medication, walking, jogging, playing, fetching (if they let go!) and general day to day grooming. We have both grown up with dogs since we were young, they have always been and will always be a major cornerstone of our life. Our own dog, a Keeshond Poodle fluffy mutt named Fitz, came to us 5 years ago and every day has been brighter (and hairier) since then! Dogs bring such joy and love to whatever they do, and we are excited to meet and share our passion for dogs with your pups! After all, they’re all Good Dogs 🐶 We both work fully remote positions as our primary careers in EST hours so we aare available all afternoons and evenings for doggo adventures. We have our own vehicle to travel to and from Rover visits, and are open to weekend visits as well. We have a fenced in yard with room to play, and are located right along a nature trail for nice long walks in the woods. Our own dog, a medium sized Keeshond Poodle (50 lbs) LOVES meeting dogs of all shapes and sizes and would be a great play companion to keep your pup company during the day. My wife and I are also fully remote in our careers so we are at home all day, which can be helpful for doggos who need a little extra love and attention .
About: Hi I'm Nathan (Nate). I’ve been surrounded by animals since the day I was born and have spent my entire life living with, training, and caring for dogs. I’ve raised and worked with a variety of breeds, including mixed breeds, Labradors, and Cocker Spaniels to name a few. My family has always been active with animals, including family farm working dogs such as sheepdogs and cattle dogs. Through my military service I’ve also spent time around military working dogs, gaining an appreciation for structured training, discipline, and reading canine behavior. I understand the importance of consistency, routine, and reinforcing the training you’ve already put time into. Whether your dog needs calm leadership, high-energy exercise, or patient guidance, I tailor my approach to each dog’s personality and needs. And of course I always enjoy my time around dogs and hope they have fun too! Currently I have great flexibility with my availability for pet care! I will be working around my current pup which limits some availability, but otherwise I can do weekdays and weekends. With some notice I am capable of pet or house sitting, usually on weekends only, but I'll do my best to work around week days if necessary. As a military veteran and active reservist, reliability, punctuality, and responsibility are core parts of who I am. You can trust that I’ll communicate clearly, show up on time, and treat your dog and home with the same respect I give my own. Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I follow your instructions carefully, maintain your training standards, and adapt every walk or visit to your dog’s energy, temperament, and requirements. Whether it’s a simple neighborhood walk, a park visit, a trail hike, or even a run, I ensure the environment is safe, controlled, and suitable for your dog. I’m committed to giving you complete peace of mind while providing your dog with a positive, stress-free experience.

“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: I was a dog-mom for 8 years before losing my boy to cancer in June 2024. Believe me when I say, I love dogs more than I can put into words. They are a constant reminder of what is good and beautiful about this world and I truly do love them all like they are my own. I am exceptionally knowledgeable and skilled at caring for senior dogs with high medical, emotional and physical health needs as well as anxious dogs. While my dog was with me, he was under the care of a Naturopath, a GP vet, an Internal Medicine Specialist and a Cardiologist, and he attended biweekly Hydrotherapy sessions in early 2024. He also ate homecooked meals, under advisement from his Naturopath, before transitioning to speciality food. I am available to help in Coquitlam , Port Coquitlam and Port Moody so, drop me a line -- I can't wait to meet you and your fur-baby :) I work from home 3 days a week so, I can make time to walk your dog (within Coquitlam, Port Coquitlam and Port Moody) or, if you'd like, I would look after your dog in my home office while I work. I would look after your dog in my home office while I work. I have a small fenced yard for doggie potty breaks. With regard to doggie daycare, I'm looking to work with just one family at this time so that I can provide care for your fur baby with undivided and uninterrupted attention.
About: I have been a dog trainer for the past 26 years and I have had pets all my life. I know how important it is to find someone reliable to take care of your pet while you are at work, or away. I have had my fare share of dog walkers cancelling at the last minute so I know the frustration with finding a reliable and responsible person. I am now 50 years old and will be there for your dog or cat, as agreed and as needed. I recently lost my big Rhodesian Ridgeback. We hiked every day for his ten year life. He was a well trained (by me) but spoiled boy who slept in my bed and was allowed on the sofa. I would treat yours based on your own rules but they would be loved and completely cared for. I find myself not wanting another dog of my own just yet but wanting to take care of others while I have the time. * Doggy day care max 8 hrs * House sit at your home two dogs max * Boarding in my home 1 dog max at a time except in special circumstances * Dog walking one hour up to 3 dogs max * Home visits 20-30 minutes My schedule is open but new dogs I will book solo so we get to know each other first. I can do day or evening walks, any day of the week. Boarding at my home would consist of walking your dog twice daily everyday, right now I am only booking boarding for one dog at a time except in special circumstances. Can do stays or sits in your home for two dogs max. I have a very large home in Westwood Plateau. I have a fenced yard that we can hang out in after our walks, which would usually be in the forest where they can be on or off leash once we get to know each other.

My friends and family have relied on me to babysit or take care of their animals when ever I can and I am always happy to! I absolutely adore and love animals so I will always treat them like my own. I work full time from home only going into the office for a few hours twice a month therefore my schedule is flexible and allows me to fully attend to your pets’ needs.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Coquitlam
Mahshid did morning drop-in visits for Simba(Yorkshire Terrier) & Nala(cat) for 7 days. The experience was great and very positive. I received daily updates and pictures about the pets. She informed me of whether they ate their meals. She would take Simba on his daily walks and would inform me if he did/didn't do his business. She also acted on any further instructions that I would giver her. Mahshid has a very caring nature and the pets thoroughly enjoyed having her around. I would definitely recommend and will request her again. Thank you:)

Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
