“Excellent with our dogs, and very accommodating with our schedule. They seem to enjoy their stay and are well loved and cared for which is all a dog owner needs. Thanks again.”
“Sjako and his family took wonderful care of our little Emilio. His kids were so sweet and gentle with our dog and they took Emilio out for a hike as well. We appreciated the great communication and the photos of our dog while we were away. Thanks so much!”
“Karin was wonderful with my husky, Baylee. I just felt so comfortable with her and her family from the moment I met her and when I left Baylee with her. I will definitely be booking stays again with Karin!”
“It was Sofie’s first stay with Linda and it won’t be the last. Fantastic facility, personalized service and Linda was great with Sofie who is only 3 1/2 month old (and she is a handful). Thank you Linda for taking such good care of Sofie.”
“Tiana was excellent with Finn! He had so much fun with her dogs and she has a great outdoor space for them to play and run around! She was constantly updating us with photos which made us feel great about being away as we knew he was so well taken care of! Will definitely use her again and Finn will be so excited to return 😁”
“Lindsey was awesome! Great communication and made me feel very comfortable leaving my lil dude in her care! She was a breeze and I highly recommend her serves to anyone:)”
“Amy is without a doubt the best puppysitter we have ever had! She is thoughtful, calm, caring and above all loves and respects dogs for who they are and their needs. Amy takes the time to send updates and pictures which puts a dog parent at ease while away. Amy also is a great adventure buddy and goes on lots of hikes and walks, which was perfect for our forest-loving dog. Our dog Odin came back from a stay with Amy looking rested but tired from adventure, calm, happy, and well cared for. Her lovely place/location is ideal for a puppy staycation. Thank you Amy! Odin misses you!”
“Charlotte had a wonderful stay with Andrea and her family! Andrea was attentive, responsive, and sent updates throughout Charlotte's weekend stay. We will definitely book with Andrea again in the future!”
“Amazing! Highly recommended, was in a pinch for safe boarding for my Dane and after four days Hendrix came home and slinked upstairs to our bed to pass out for 5hrs. Will be making this our primary for additional care. Highly recommended!!”
“highly recommend Erin She’ was very communicative during Maggies stay She sent lots of pictures and updates and went out of her way to make sure Maggie was taken care of. Thanks again!!”
About: I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and energy levels, and I’m comfortable adapting care to each dog’s routine and needs. I focus on calm, consistent handling and clear expectations, which helps dogs settle quickly. I’m attentive on walks, respectful of training cues, and comfortable supporting puppies as well as senior dogs. I follow care instructions closely, keep environments safe and structured, and pay attention to behaviour or health changes. You can expect reliable communication, thoughtful updates, and care that prioritizes your dog’s wellbeing while you’re away. Although I work full time, I have flexibility to work from home when needed, which allows me to build pet care smoothly into my daily routine. When working in the office I commute to Nanaimo, which means I can provide home care to pets from Shawnigan Lake to Nanaimo. I focus on creating a safe, calm environment for pets, both in my home and in clients’ homes. I stick to routines, follow instructions carefully, and pay close attention to safety on walks and at home. I’m respectful of clients’ spaces and keep things clean and secure. You’ll receive regular updates so you can feel confident your pet is well cared for.
“Kelsey took very good care of my dog 🐶 she’s very kind and kept me in the loop on what my dog was up to throughout the days. I will definitely use her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking to have her sit their fur babies! ❤️”
“Heather was great about getting back to me in a timely manner for planning last minute, and sent lots of photos of my pup for me. It looked like Dolly had a great time there and appeared to be very comfortable when i arrived to pick her up, really appreciate the help and will be using Heather again in the future!”
“Our 13 year old Ruby stayed with Maryanne overnight. Maryanne sent text and photo updates to let us know the dog was doing alright. Ruby enjoyed the backyard with their dog. Unfortunately, Ruby made a mistake on the area rug! So sorry about that.”
“Bianca was amazing! Having another dog was so great and the picture updates set our minds at ease. She’ll be bored back home with us! We will definitely use Bianca again!!!”
About: I have had a dog or taken care of dogs since I was a little girl. Family, neighbours and friends have all relied on me to help take care of their pets for many years. I am a huge animal lover and a health care worker and will always provide the best and safest care for your pup. Recently I have fostered some dogs through a local rescue and helped them find their new home. I have learned alot about behaviours and training with these pups. We love to play in the yard or go for walks, and have lots of snuggles on the couch :) I currently work part time so have lots of time available to spend with your dog! My flexible schedule allows me to board your pet overnight any day of the week, or drop in for visits/walks. I have a fenced back yard and two small dogs to keep your fur baby company! Your dog is welcome to treat our home as their own and I will give them lots of love and be devoted to their happiness and well being while you are away.
About: I've taken care of many dogs, big and small. My dog has environmental allergies and I'm accustomed to giving medications and following a specific routine. I work from home on Monday and Friday and I am available on weekends. My dog goes for two walks per day and we walk in a safe walking area. Our home is especially good for small dogs. It has a nicely fenced back yard and a clean, comfortable space where dogs can relax and get the attention they deserve while you are away. I'm happy to send photo and text updates so you can relax knowing your dog is happy and well cared for. Our dog is the center of our home and I treat every dog I care for with the same love and attention.
“Bill and Gerie are total gems. Our Toby had the best time at their place. They sent us many photos during his 3 week stay showing a very happy dog enjoying the adventures out with Bill. Their home and property offer a perfect situation for dogs and they obviously adore doing this work. Bill very kindly delivered our dog back to our house, a service above and beyond. Toby can’t wait to go back!”

Karin was amazing with my little pup, Milo! While I was away, she provided updates and sent me pictures of the friends he made. She was also flexible in the pick up time when I had an issue on my trip. Once I picked him up he appeared very with her. I would use Karin again and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a safe and caring environment for their dog.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Duncan home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favourite hang-out spots in your Duncan
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
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 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.
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 .
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 85% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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.
