“Thank you Ana :) we really appreciate you watching, taking care of, walking, and making sure luna feels comfortable. I got frequent photos and videos throughout and was able to book and confirm within minutes. ❤️”
“Katrina and Ryan were phenomenal with our dog Jasper. They provided frequent updates of their adventures, and made every moment enjoyable and fun for him. Communication was efficient and effective. They went above and beyond to ensure a safe and fun experience for our dog. We were comfortable and confident leaving Jasper with Katrina and Ryan and we will definitely be booking with them again. Thank you for taking such great care of our boy!!”
“I was very nervous about using this at first but Pamela was very understanding not only with myself but also with my little lady bugs as well would love too book again 😀 and thanks again”
“This was the first time I ever left my pup with someone else. I'm glad I found the Rover app and Colton made my leaving easy. From the very beginning he was a great communicator, responded quickly to my request which was important as it was a last minute travel plan. He took great care of Yoda and I cannot thank him enough.”
“Sherrie was absolutely amazing with Coco! ❤️ I couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of her while I was away. She kept me updated every single day, sent me pictures, and always made sure I knew how Coco was doing. It gave me such peace of mind knowing Coco was safe, happy, and being so well cared for. You can truly tell that Sherrie loves animals and treats them like family. I’m so grateful I found her, and I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and reliable. Coco absolutely loved her! 🐶❤️ Thank you so much, Sherrie! 🥰”
“Casey did an exceptional job taking care of Kiro. He would keep us updated daily with pictures and Kiro was definitely spoiled. I would highly recommend Casey if u need a sitter. Will definitely come back. Thank you Casey and Shauna!”
“5 stars – Highly Recommend! I had a fantastic experience with Stacey. She and her daughter took excellent care of Bella, while I was away. They followed all instructions carefully, gave regular updates with photos, and treated my pup like family. I came home to a happy, healthy, and well-exercised dog. It gave me real peace of mind knowing Bella was in such good hands. I would absolutely book with Stacey again and recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”
“Holli was wonderful, had great communication and provided a welcoming, loving home for my high energy golden retriever who provides zero personal space. Will definitely rebook!”
“Benjamin was great! He took time at a meet and greet to really get to know her. He even asked us to leave for 20 minutes and then come back, so she knew we'd come and get her, as a 'practice'. Thank you for taking amazing care of our sweety, we will definitely use your services again :)”
“Jill was amazing with my pomsky Raffi! He didn’t want to leave and gave me very dirty looks the whole drive home. She was very attentive and sent all types of great pictures/updates! I would highly recommend her and will use her again!”
“Renee is amazing. After not boarding our senior dog for a few years, Renee put us at ease right away. Her space is very comfortable & accommodating to fur babies. We knew our little dog was in good hands. She also sent us photos to let us know our little dog was doing just fine. We highly recommend Renee for your pet sitting needs.”
“Lexia was very professional. She genuinely cares for animals. She asked me questions about my dogs autoimmune disease so she would have the proper knowledge that she needed to administer my dogs medication. She sent me pictures of my dog settling in and looking comfortable in her home as well as out for a nice walk on a sunny day. Thank you again, Lexia. We will be looking to book again in the future.”
“So happy with Jeremy & his wife and the love they have for my Sophie 🐶 pictures & videos throughout her stay, from all her walks and snacks and adventures she’s on. She comes home happy 🥰”
“Vanessa was very accommodating with our last minute booking. She sent lots of updates and it was very obvious that she cared about our dog and made every effort to make her feel comfortable. Thank you!”
“First time using rover and I'm glad we used Jennifer. Our pup was so well taken care of. And appreciated the regular pics and updates. My first choice for future services”
“Ranjha loved staying with Rufana! For a high energy dog, she made sure he got lots of exercise as well as cuddles! Rufana was consistent with updates which always makes us feel better! Would definitely take Ranjha back.”
“Mai gave regular updates with Lucky and Lucky was very well kept. He warmed up to her quickly when he gets scared of people. I would definitely book with Mai again she was so good with Lucky”
“We are extremely happy with the service. We left our two small dogs for a trip for the first time. One of our dogs has anxiety as well and they handled it very well. We constantly got updates with walk progression, pictures and videos. The dogs are healthy and happy. It was like they were on their own mini vacation while we were away. Will definitely rebook in the future.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Edmonton
Zelda (my dog) truly enjoys staying with Zoey M! As we approach Zoey M's house in the car, Zelda starts to stand and is super excited! Zoey M is welcoming, kind, pays attention to detail, and truly loves dogs. When your dog is with Zoey M, you do not have anything to worry about 😊
I had such a great experience with Jennifer. I sent her a very long message with all the little details and instructions about my dog, and she was so sweet, understanding, and accommodating about everything. She made me feel completely comfortable leaving my dog in her care. She was attentive, caring, and clearly treated him with so much love. I really appreciated how patient and reassuring she was throughout the whole experience. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter! ❤️🐾**
Colton was absolutely wonderful with Susan! We couldn’t have asked for a better person to look after her. He was so kind, easygoing and accommodating, especially when our plans changed and we needed to extend her stay. He kept us updated, sent us the cutest videos of her playing, and it was so nice seeing how happy and comfortable she was with him. We felt completely at ease knowing Susan was safe, happy and being so well cared for. She clearly had a great time! We would happily have Colton look after her again. Thank you so much for taking such good care of our girl! 😊
I will happily rebook with Sherrie in the future. She and her family took excellent care of my dogs Gus & Milo while I was out of province. I hadn’t ever left them in the care of anyone but family so I was a bit anxious, but Sherrie sent frequent daily updates and photos of what they were up to and how they were doing. My pups got cuddles, walks, treats and attention, and I think it ended up being a home away from home for Gus & Milo! Thank you Sherrie!
Pamela was absolutely amazing with my pooch. She updated me a few times letting me know that she had taken him for walks. And he seemed very happy. Even on pickup, both her husband and her boy said that gunner was a good puppy. I will definitely look into using her again
Our dog looked like she was living her beat life staying with Pamela! What a wonderful sitter - she gave our dog daily walks in the river valley and had such a great rapport with her right from our meet and greet through her stay. Thanks and we will book again! Alison
Jessica took absolutely wonderful care of our 15 year old bichon-shih tzu, who is mostly blind and deaf and requires medication twice a day. We had never left her in the care of a stranger before but would 100% leave her with Jessica again!!! She sent us daily updates and pictures and let us meet her beforehand to make sure our dog was ok there. I would definitely recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Edmonton on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Edmonton 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 Edmonton
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:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
