“Dana is great! She took good care of my cats while I was away and sent detailed updates with photos. I was very thankful she was able to take on my last minute request and that I could enjoy my vacation and know my cats were taken care of! This was my first time using rover and I had a wonderful experience, I would definitely recommend her :)”

About: I absolutely adore dogs and have always grown up with dogs. My family currently has a 4-year-old English Springer Spaniel whom I helped train during the puppy stage. Back in BC, I loved going on hikes, walks, and swims with my dog. Now, I want to bring some of that love and playful energy over here to Halifax. I am currently working part-time as a researcher at Dalhousie, so my availability is flexible to accommodate your needs as best as possible. Being part-time also allows me to care for your pet during more extended stays or if your dog requires longer walks. I currently live in a pet-friendly apartment located near local parks and green spaces. I also have access to a car so that I can take your dog to a variety of locations. It is a mostly quiet area with sunlight and fresh air, ensuring the place stays cool during the summer months.

About: Hi! We are Dan and Marie! We're two lifelong pet owners with experience caring for animals of all shapes, sizes and personalities. Whether your dog is a couch potato who wants a friend to cuddle with, or is an athlete who wants a jogging buddy to join them in the park, we're happy to work with you to meet your pet's needs and to keep them content while you're away or at work. We specialize in caring for herding dogs (Aussies and Shelties), but welcome any and all 4-legged friends! We have some flexibility during the daytime (can provide lunch time walks), and have open availability in the afternoons (after 3pm), evenings, and on weekends. We are extremely cautious of your pet's safety as well as the security and safety of your home. We take every measure possible to keep your pet out of harm's way and abide by the routines which are set out for us when meeting you.

“Gina looked after my tabby cat with recurring outdoor visits. I am very pleased with her service and recommend her service for your little furry friends. She is very friendly, great to communicate with and very responsive. Also, she made our bookings and schedule very flexible and easy to accomodate our needs. Thanks Gina for your service.”

“Sydney took great care of my cat Vera while I was away. It was my first time using rover so I was a bit nervous, but Sydney put Vera and I both at ease. She was very communicative throughout the process and provided lots of pictures as well. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone needing a kind and capable caretaker for their pet.”

About: I have always loved and respected animals. I understand some pets have special requirements and ways of communicating with others. I am ready to listen and give your pet the attention and care they need! I am a full time Canada post employee and can fit pet sitting into my schedule. Dog needs a walk through the week? I got you! I cannot host dogs in my apartment as pets are sadly not allowed. I can travel to meet you and your pets needs! I live near point pleasant park and can bring your pooch over for a good run.

About: If you need an alternative to daycare and dog parks, where your dog can get all the attention and care that they need you have found the right place! I am open to boarding well behaved, smaller dogs. My yard is fully fenced. My prices are firm based on time away from my life, gas, groceries and other expenses. Rest assured that I will make sure your pets gets plenty of care just as I do with my own pups! Every pet deserves the best care and I can cater to their specific needs. Pet safety is my main priority. I won’t leave dogs unattended to roam without a fence. I can take dogs off leash for walks within reason.

About: I'm here to give your furry family the care they deserve, especially while you’re away which can be stressful for both sides. I grew up with dogs so am familiar with their needs and have cared for a smattering of random creatures like a turtle, hamster, and even a parrot. Since I was 9 years old, neighbours trusted me to visit their homes and care for their pets while they were out traveling. I am also happy to send update photos of their life while you're gone! Most of my exposure to pets is within the 2yr to senior age range so puppy training is not in my skillset. As for meds, I have experience with giving pills and medicated ear drops to both dogs and cats. While I’m not a needle expert, I follow instructions and take pet healthcare needs seriously; I insist on having a thorough tutorial before you leave your pet in my care. I work from home so can be flexible with availability, although I'm unable to host at this time. As for your pet's routines: don't worry, I’ve got timing down to an art. My phone alarms are practically my life force, so you can trust I won’t miss a feeding time, potty break, or belly rub session. Your pet is in safe, reliable hands. I believe in meeting pets where they are.🐶For a dog, I’ll bring the energy and playtime. For a cat?😽 I understand they might just want to be left to contemplate life while perched on top of the fridge because....boundaries. Rest easy that I’ll get to know your pet’s unique personality and tailor my approach, because I'm the guest in their space!
