About: I am an animal- lover and I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats over 18 years. I feel a deep sense of compassion for all living creatures and strive to treat them with kindness and respect.

“I was very nervous leaving our senior dog with our son for two weeks but Dorsa was amazing. She came in twice a day to visit and walk Lulu. We came home to a happy dog. Would highly recommend her!”
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 obsessed with pets from a young age. We have had cats, dogs, birds and reptiles. My family rottweiler, Trebor, inspired a particular love of everything four legged and since then I have had shih tzus and beagles. I love all pets like they are my own and, through experience and research, have an excellent knowledge of behavioural signs and symptoms in dogs. I understand each pet is a part of the family and will treat them as such. I am currently widely available for pet sitting, walking and drop in visits. I am very flexible and will work with you to best meet your pets needs. I have a secure balcony and plenty of rooms if your dog needs there own space. I have an off leash dog walk 5 minutes away from me. As well as secure garden area for regular toilet breaks. I also have maby comfy spot for the pets to snuggle down.
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. No I don’t train monkeys or alpacas :) My schedule is entirely open starting June 15th, 2026. I can do day or evening walks, any day of the week. Boarding would consist of walking your dog everyday, max 2 dogs at a time. 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.
“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!”
“Averi was a wonderful caretaker for our cat while we were away on holiday! I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caretaker with excellent communication skills and who is very caring and trustworthy.”
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: My partner and I have spent the past three years training and raising our mini poodle, Leo. He has grown into a well-socialized, friendly dog who loves meeting and spending time with other dogs. During this period, we took a break from Rover, but we are excited to return and welcome new pups into our home. He’ll be just as excited to welcome your dog into our home as we will be. Prior to Leo, we each had over 10 years of experience caring for friends’ and coworkers’ dogs. We’re attentive, patient, and comfortable reading canine body language, including signs of stress, discomfort, or aggression. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always our top priorities. Your pet will become part of our family while in our care. We integrate dogs into our daily routine so they feel safe, included, and loved. We work Monday to Friday from 9 to 5. From Monday to Thursday, we work from home, providing supervision, companionship, and regular breaks. On Fridays, I go into a pet-friendly office, and your dog is welcome to join me in a safe environment with space to play. We take Leo on three walks each day, and your dog would follow the same routine. Mornings include an hour-long walk with a visit to the dog park to run and burn energy, followed by breakfast, fresh water, and playtime with favourite toys. We respect each dog’s individual needs and adjust walks or activities for less active dogs or those with mobility considerations. With two of us, one can stay home while the other goes on a longer walk. On weekends, we enjoy trail walks or riverside strolls for enrichment and fresh air. Weather permitting, we spend as much time outdoors as possible. On rainy days, we focus on indoor engagement, enrichment toys, and mental stimulation to keep dogs happy and active. Our routine ensures structure, attention, and consistency so dogs in our care always feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for. Your pet will naturally become part of our family while they are with us. We integrate the dogs in our care into our daily life so they feel safe, included, and genuinely at home. We follow a structured routine that includes three walks per day, consistent feeding times, fresh water, and interactive play. After morning exercise, dogs are fed breakfast and given time to relax with their favourite toys. We are attentive to canine body language and monitor closely for any signs of stress or discomfort to ensure a positive environment. We always respect each dog’s individual needs. If your dog is less active or has mobility limitations, we adjust their walks and activity level accordingly. Since there are two of us, one can take Leo on a longer outing while the other provides your dog with a calmer pace and one on one attention. When caring for pets in a client’s home, we closely follow the owner’s established routines to maintain consistency and reduce stress.

If you'd like to talk more about me caring for your furry friend, please don't hesitate to reach out! I currently run a remote business, so I have a very flexible schedule and can help out with your pets as needed. My schedule is mine to decide. I can board 1 or 2 bonded cats only, I have a separate space where they would stay that is very spacious and where I can go in and spend time with them. If there are pets to be cared for in your home, I can come and spend ample time with them.

“Sandra did a drop in visit for our cat while we were away. She was great: very quick to respond, easy to communicate with and sent a fulsome update of the visit. We have already rebooked her for the next time we’re out of town!”
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!
“Justine did a great job taking care of my kitties while I was away. I felt confident that they were safe and happy during her visits. She is a fantastic communicator and sent lots of great photos and updates during each of her visits. I definitely recommend her and will book with her again if I go on another trip :)”
About: I have had all kinds of animals growing up from hamsters to cats & dogs so I’ve loved having animals all my life. I’ve also had a family dog (yorkie) at my moms who’s over 6 years that I adore and took care of before I moved out. 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. I currently have 2 cats at my place but I can place them in a different area for a few hours so message me & I will do my best to accommodate :) I will care for your pets as if they were my own, do my best to make them feel comfortable, and follow their regular routines as instructed. I provide bowls, doggy bags and anything else that is needed for a comfortable stay. My apartment is cozy, clean and safe.
“Megan is wonderful, and was so good with our big puppy who immediately took to Megan. Megan is accommodating, great communication and clearly has lots of experience with animals.”
“Sthefanya is just amazing! She took great care of our dog and he took to her right away! She went above and beyond in making sure he got his walk and lots and lots of snuggles during the visit! I’ll definitely book her again in the future and highly recommend her!! ?”

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:)
I was soooo grateful that Arian was available to take our senior doggo Nina for a couple walks while I was gone on holiday. It was the day before I headed into a big work contract and there were still two days I could not find support. I checked Rover for the first time and found Arian. He was communicative and sent lots of pictures of him and Nina as well as updates making me feel secure. I love that we have a wonderful dog walker we can call upon when other last minute life things come up. Thank you Arian for supporting Nina in a good way.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or travelling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer poop breaks during a Coquitlam stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover based on what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 Coquitlam 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!
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.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. 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.
