About: Hello there! My name is Michelle and I’ve been taking care of animals in almost every setting imaginable for almost 10 years. I have worked for professional training companies, local dog shelters and the BCSPCA for just over 5 years and have a passion for animals! I’ve been house sitting and pet sitting for friends and family for almost 10 years and have made new clients and friends along the way. I have cared for a variety of animals and feel comfortable with every kind of little friend! House/Pet sitting! 🏡🐕🐈 For this service I can come to your home where your pets are most comfortable! I do work a full time job 5 days a week and will be out of the home 6-8 hours a day. I can provide over night stays and reside in your home as much as I can throughout the day aside from work and running errands. Drop In visits 👋🏻 I can provide either once or twice a day drops in visits which consist of any tasks you need done with your home or pets. This is a great option for when you’re away on a day trip, at work, or a weekend getaway and your low maintenance pets just need a quick visit. Dog Walking 🐶 I can walk all sizes and breeds of dogs. Minimum 30 minute walks which can be shorter or longer to accommodate your specific pet. I don’t take pets off leash due to comfortability and other pets in public areas being unpredictable. 📍For homes out of a 20KM radius from my location I do ask an extra fee due to gas prices. I am available for a meet and greet to assure I am the right fit for you and your pet while you’re away! 😁 (Over 20KM radius gas fee will apply) Your pets health, safety and well-being is my top priority. I live to provide photos during visits to give peace of mind and comfort. I usually follow the clients care rules as they can vary. I always provide standard care for the animals which includes bathroom breaks every 3-4 hours or as needed depending if I’m staying in the home, and physical activity with walks, play time, fetch, etc! Of course always endless cuddles as long as they enjoy! And of course following a feeding guide provided by client!
About: For the pooches, Do you like all the attention in the world ? Do you love walks that get all of your bottled up energy worked out ? Are you in some serious need of cuddles & loving ? Do you like have a late night snack but have no one to get it for you ? Are you cold because you don’t have someone to keep you warm at night ? Are you lonely because you’re home alone ? Do you need more friends in the neighbourhood to come visit you ? Are you needing someone to open the door to let you out because you don’t know how to ? Do you have a series you could catch up on over a sleeepover or two ? I look forward to meeting you & your wonderful owners. ? I am starting a new job later this month & it will be 9-5 (usually) & Monday - Friday (usually) & I’ll be working 20-30 hours a week so Ill have lots of time to be available. Make sure that the pets are safe (have a safe environment for them). For getting an animal to trust you, you have to go at their pace weather that be fast for some it may be slow for others. At the end of the day what is the most important is that they’re safe & feel safe.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Dawson Creek on Rover is $28.86 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
Many sitters respond to requests in under an hour. Whether you are planning ahead for public holidays, need last-minute care, or same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or travelling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer poop breaks during a Dawson Creek stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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.
You can coordinate how much supervision you want directly with your sitter. While every sitter’s schedule varies, here are some examples of supervision by pet care service:
- Boarding or doggy day care: Many sitters can provide frequent companionship because they design their day specifically around the pets in their care or work from home.
- House sitting: Your sitter generally stays in your home for the requested duration, which may include overnight care. They may step out briefly to visit other pet clients, but your home remains their primary base.
- Drop-in visits or dog walking: These can be scheduled in 30- or 60-minute windows (and can be shorter or longer at your request) to help your pet receive dedicated attention and care during those specific times.
Interested in constant or 24/7 care? This service often incurs an additional fee but many sitters are happy to discuss this option with you.
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 Dawson Creek 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.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a veterinary professional or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means Rover Support will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
