About: I own a pitbull chocolate lab mix, hes a rescue and is my joy in life. I've taught him manners and made him many friends, he and I are always in the market for new dog friends! I own a dog so walks daily lots of snuggles and bring him to see his friends almost daily. And the park as often as possible. I live in a house with my dog, we hangout outside, go for walks, the park, and we play outback in the yard, and wrestling, sometimes ice cream treats on hot days!
“I have never left my boys with anyone other than family & friends, but the second I met Saoirse I had no worries at all. She was absolutely amazing and I know my boys will miss her. I loved getting picture updates everyday and her comments each day were very informative and hilarious to read. It was so nice to have someone who truly loved animals, and after meeting them she loved them immediately like her own. I won’t be booking with anyone other than her from this point forward, she was amazing and I could go on and on forever praising her. Thank you for giving me peace of mind knowing that my boys were cared for and given lots of pets and love!”

“Very happy with Thanh's care of my two kitties! Sent me updates and pictures everyday, definitely helped give me peace of mind that my kitties are doing well. Would definitely hire again for my next vacation!”

“Aline and Denis were incredible. They made sure my cat was safe, healthy, and happy. They went above and beyond to make sure we had photos of our kitty when we were away and also sent some lovely videos. They were excellent communicators, were timely, and were overall just a total joy. We will definitely use them again when we travel!”

About: For me, a wagging tail isn’t just a greeting—it’s a language I’ve been speaking since I rescued my first pet when I was 10. Since then, my life has been defined by the wagging tails and soft purrs of the animals I’ve helped heal and protect. I don’t just see pet sitting as a job; I see it as a commitment to making sure your best friend feels safe, seen, and deeply loved while you're away. Growing up with rescues taught me how to speak their silent language—whether it’s giving a shy dog the space they need to trust me or recognizing the specific needs of a senior pet who just wants a gentle stroll. Because I’m based right in the heart of the city, your pup and I will enjoy soulful walks through the Mill Creek Ravine, peaceful mornings in Windsor, or lively adventures along Whyte Ave and the River Valley. Whether your dog needs a high-energy hike or a patient companion for a slow walk, I promise to treat them with the same devotion I’ve given to every rescue animal that has crossed my path for the last 16 years. I am available to take care of your pet at all times during the weekends and in the evenings of the workdays. I am pretty flexible to navigate the time and date that works for you, your pet, and me! My 16 years of rescue experience have made me a "safety-first" sitter who treats your home like a sanctuary. Whether navigating the River Valley or your living room, I am an expert at "door-dash" prevention and always enter/exit with extreme caution. For walkers, I am Edmonton weather-savvy, prioritizing paw protection from salt and extreme cold to keep your pups safe. For sitters, I perform daily "safety sweeps" for hazards like toxic plants or loose strings. From building trust with shy cats through "slow blinks" to ensuring dogs are securely harnessed, I provide a professional, low-stress environment. You can expect total transparency with detailed Rover Cards and photos after every visit, with local emergency vet info always on hand for absolute peace of mind.
About: With the shared responsibilities of owning a family dog, I have learned how to properly take care of our beloved furry friends. In addition, I have been a reliable dog-walker and dog-sitter for family and friends over the years. I work a full-time job, but if you need a walk or visit I am free before 8am and after 4:30pm!! I enjoy long walks, in which I would love to have a furry companion to join me. If your dog needs the extra exercise or energy release, I am a college student athlete and I can also jog along with your dog. I will respect the routines and environment that you have implemented for your dog in your home. I will care for your dog depending on how you have your space set up.
About: I have experience with different animals from small dogs to larger breeds > 100lbs I don’t have any pets of my own but I have volunteered at animal shelters walking dogs and giving pets and cuddles to the cats I enjoy walking in the river valley, checking out new neighbourhoods, hiking, and taking advantage of any opportunity to be around animals I am currently working part-time/ casual so my schedule varies but I mostly work evenings and have mornings and weekends off. If there is a stretch of time that will be needed, I can accommodate if sufficient notice is given I would ensure the dog is given a long/short walk depending on needs, letting out to use the bathroom and routine feeding. Lots of play time with balls or toys Cats- I will cuddle or play with your cat(s), feed if needed, clean litter as well
About: I grew up with pets all my life. Moving from Philippines to Canada made my family pretty lonely, so we adopted 2 cats and 4 small dogs over the past few years to keep us company. I was the kid that begged them to get those beloved pets so I was the one who took good care of all of them out of the family. So living away from my parents really makes me miss my furry friends. So I would love to take good care of your beloved pets like how I would with mine! So with my weekday schedule I have class at 6pm ending between 8-9pm and I pick up 1 or 2 shifts at my 2nd job. So I have a love of time weekday mornings and afternoons. On the weekends I work from 7pm-3am so I also have a lot of time in the morning and afternoon for pet care! I am not able to pet sit at my own home as I do not have a backyard, and pets are not allowed in my apartment. If I were to pet sit at your home I would walk them during their scheduled walking time and feed them during their eating time. And of course play with them If they need to get some energy out!
About: Hi, I am Morgan. I have been an animal person my entire life, and I understand how hard it can be to leave your pet with someone new. I also know the trust it takes to have someone in your home. My goal is always to make both you and your dog feel completely safe, comfortable, and supported. My four year old Labradoodle Chunk is my constant companion. He is friendly, social, calm inside the home, and gets along well with other dogs. He does come with me because he is attached to me, but he is easy, respectful, and adjusts well to new environments. The only thing to note is that he is not good with cats. I have a flexible schedule and a lot of time to dedicate to your dog. I drive and have an SUV, so walks, outings, and dog park visits are a normal part of our day. I usually take Chunk out three to five times daily, and I will match whatever routine works best for your pet. I have experience with puppies, seniors, administering medication, following detailed routines, and supporting dogs with different personalities and needs. I know how important consistency is, and I am committed to keeping your dog’s environment calm, familiar, and stress free. Respect for your home is very important to me. I am extremely clean and organized, and I will treat your space with the same care and attention I give my own. You will receive regular updates, photos, and videos so you always feel connected and at ease. I have references and years of experience caring for animals. If you are looking for someone loving, reliable, and attentive, I would love to connect and see if we are a good fit for you and your dog. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because Chunk and I already go on multiple walks every day. I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your dog consistent attention, exercise, and company throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow your dog’s routine closely to keep things familiar and stress free. I am extremely clean and respectful in any home I stay in, and I always make sure your dog feels calm, secure, and cared for the entire time you are away.

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals and was raised on a farm with multiple large dogs, including bully breeds. I have hands-on experience training Great Pyrenees and other large dogs, and I’m confident handling strong, high-energy breeds. I also have extensive experience with cats and have always had one by my side. I’m familiar with all aspects of cat care, including post-surgery recovery, and provide calm, attentive support during healing. I’m currently working part time as a server, so I’ll have tons of time to play with your pups! I only work after 5pm so I am always available from 7am-4pm MT. I am typically available again at around 10-11pm for night time visits and overnight stays. care for pets by following their established routines as closely as possible to keep them comfortable and stress-free. In both my home and my clients’ homes, I prioritize safety, consistency, and attentive care. For dogs, this includes proper leash handling, exercise suited to their energy level, feeding as instructed, fresh water, and plenty of positive reinforcement. For cats, I focus on calm interaction, litter box upkeep, feeding routines, and respecting their individual boundaries. I’m attentive to behavioral cues and health changes and communicate clearly with owners through regular updates. I also have experience administering basic care and supporting pets during recovery periods, always ensuring they’re comfortable and closely monitored.
“Alyssa’s been doing drop in visits to watch over my two very crazy young cats for awhile now and always makes time for my last minute bookings! She’s great and follows all my instructions ☺️”

“We had to book a sitter for our two cats on very short notice, and it usually fills me with anxiety because one of our cats is very territorial and does not like strangers. Catherine went above and beyond, recognized our grumpy cat's behavior, and was able to give her the space she needed while providing care for both cats. We received multiple updates with every drop-in, and my wife and I would watch some short and very sweet videos that were sent along with pictures during each visit. We were surprised to see how our grumpy old cat began tolerating Catherine's presence, but also began slowly warming up to her in her own way. I highly recommend Catherine for any pet-sitting needs. She truly loves animals, no matter if they are cats or dogs, and will treat them the way they wanted to be treated, even if it means giving them a little space at first.”

About: Me and my family raised and breed American Akita’s and other farm and exotic animals back home in Alberta. I also grow up with all kinds of breeds of dogs from small one’s to big breed dogs. I’m personally an active person. So I’ll be taking an proactive approach in your dog and make sure it gets as much activity with me as possible. If your dog likes being lazy, I can hangout with him/her and watch Netflix and give them lots of attention. But most importantly, I’ll give as much love and care as you would for your dog. My schedule is mostly free in the morning and afternoon’s during the weekdays. If you require a certain day, please give notice. Thanks, see you and your dog soon. I’m currently in the process of joining the armed forces and work part-time. Meaning lots of playtime and adventures to play with puppies and dogs. I have a house with a yard and a gate to keep the dogs inside. I’m very attentive with dogs with any special needs and wants.
Edmonton dog parents share their Rover experiences
Julia is lovely. We booked her services while we were away for a couple days and she took incredible care of Winnie. Julia is responsible, organized, and compassionate. Her experience with reactive dogs is an asset. We would happily ask her to dog sit again in the future!

Urbah continues to impress and amaze me! She is completely dependable and dedicated. My pups just love her- and when I come home after work, and she has visited them, they are happy and fulfilled. I don’t know what I would do without her. She meets the training needs of my 4 year old and completely meets the needs of my 14.5 year old puppy. Finding someone who adds to your life and your pups is rare indeed. So happy she is a part of our life!!!

Umber is amazingly patient with our reactive nervous girly! She’s patient and calm, and knows the most important ways to deal with reactive dogs like letting them come to you, not making eye contact until they’re ready, etc. By the end of the visit, Hannah was cuddled up on the couch with her. We are so incredibly grateful we found her.

Heather was fantastic!!! For each visit we received photos and updates when needed. The relief of knowing our pups were under the conscientious care of Heather’s just let us relax more for our vacation ⭐️ i Would 💯 recommend Heather and will be keeping in touch for future pet-sitting in the future! We cannot thank her enough!! Our puppies Margot and Winnie also thank her 🐶💘
