“Shane was a gift and a blessing to our family. We were left with a last minute situation to find care for our Australian Shepard, Lucy. With no time to prepare Lucy suffered from unexpected anxiety. Shane was so patient and knowledgeable. She helped Lucy through her anxiety and by the end of their week together I have no doubt that they bonded forever. I would, without a doubt, recommend Shane as a safe, loving home to board your pet.”
“Linda was amazing. Her boarding operation is clean and organized. She looked after our three Schnauzers for a week, and they all came home healthy and happy. Linda made an extra effort to work with our youngest Schnauzer who is anxious and had never been boarded before… we were so grateful for her patience with him. I would not hesitate to recommend Linda for boarding services and I hope she will have our three back again next time!”
“My partner and I were getting married over a weekend in Lake Cowichan and needed a great place for Scotty to stay while we tied the knot. Not only did Scotty have an amazing time with Karin, she brought him to Lake Cowichan so that he could be a part of our wedding ceremony and then took him back when we were done. We cannot thank Karin enough for making our wedding complete with all of our family members there to participate. I would highly recommend her for boarding your dog.”
“As always, Ivy had a great time with Danielle and Gibuu, and a little more structure than she sometimes gets at home is always helpful with her training and development!”
“Erin was wonderful with my doodle and also very accomodating for drop-off and pick-up times as driving took a little longer then expected one day. My dog was very calm and happy when I picked her up so I was glad to know she was well taken care of by Erin.”
“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!”
“First time using Kelsey service for our little boy and I will ask her again anytime. Our dog was so happy when we came back to pick him up , we can tell he had a good time with Kelsey and her husband and also made a new friend with there dog :) thanks you so much”
“We are very impressed with the care that Heather provided for our boy Duncan. Our dog is on a lot of different medications given at different times of the day and the schedule was followed to a T. Will be keeping Heather in mind for the future. Thanks for treating our boy like the Prince he is!”
“Miru had a great time staying with Bianca! She went on hikes and had lots of fun playing with the other dogs Bianca was taking care of. It was clear she was well cared for, and we really appreciated the updates. We would definitely book again.”
“Kelsey was super communicative with us and great with our dog despite his puppy nature and silly quirks! It is evident she really enjoys having dogs around and we appreciate her!”
“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 😁”
“Absolutely cannot recommend Criofan enough. Her and her partner made an amazing home away from home for our pup. He has a forever best friend with her sweet pup Albert and was so well taken care of. Perfect experience for us”
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.
“Huxley had a great time at Andrea's. Andrea doesn't over treat which in Huxley's case very good. Daily walks morning, afternoon and evening. The pictured shoed Huxley resting and laid back. I know he was well looked after to him Andrea's home felt like home.”
About: I’ve been training puppies, caring for senior dogs, dogs recovering from surgery, I’ve owned/raised dogs big & small since I was born. Focused on safety and happiness. My house is their house. I’m currently available full time and available to care for dogs full time. Can host at my home or go to you. I do have a dog myself. I can leave her with her grandparents if you prefer me staying with your dog in your home❤️ I have a fenced dog run and a yard where I can hook dogs up on a line. Beach and forest walks steps away or cuddles at home I can crate a dog or happily let them sleep on furniture/beds.
“Even though my dog caused them a lot of trouble, Kevin&Kayla still loved my dog until the end. I'm grateful to them. They are very nice people. If they would allow me, I would like to ask them again.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Duncan
Charlie clearly enjoyed his time with Kristine as he came home happy and relaxed. She was easy to communicate with, sent regular updates and photos, and was flexible around my unconfirmed pick up time due to ferry issues. I highly recommend Kristine if you live in the Cowichan Valley!
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:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 83% 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.
