“Absolutely amazing! She took Bronson out and tended to his needs, also going above and beyond for him! I would definitely recommend her to anyone who wants their pups in caring hands! Had no issues with our last second schedule, great at communicating and stayed in our home overnight. She treated our pup and home with absolute respect! Thanks you again Amanda! We will definitely be returning customers!”
About: I am the type of person who will immediately compliment your pet when I’m walking down the street. I like pets more than I like people. I did not grow up with animals in the household but as soon as I moved out I got my own dog and he became my shadow for 12.5 amazing years. I will probably spend most of my time shared with your pet hanging out with them beside me and talking to them like they are going to talk back. I’ll walk them, love them, feed them, and make sure they are occupied until your safe return! My love for animals, cats and dogs alike, runs deeper than I care to admit. Plenty of experience administering medications and taking extra steps to care for seniors. My boy was a vet special for most of his life. Meds, cones, ointments, diapers, needles. Nothing phases me! I will try my hand at trimming nails too but will stop if I feel it’s out of my hands. My family has plenty of animals at home so that Is why I am showing my availability as I come to you. I am currently working full time Monday to Friday from 6am to 330pm. After those hours I have all afternoon to tend to your pet. I would let your little loves out to pee/feed them in the morning, and be back to hang with them after work. If we are looking at a weekend, if you have me booked, your pet is my priority. As for cats, I can do litter as many times a day you like! You tell me how you want your pet loved while you are away and your wish is my command. That’s the easy part of me coming to you, your pet remains comfortable in their own environment. I have a safe reliable SUV for transportation if any sort of emergency does arise.
About: With 5 years of dog kennel experience and personal training for dogs, I am a highly skilled pet care provider. Trustworthy, reliable, and passionate about dogs, I stand out from the rest. My boyfriend and I just moved to Uculelet to get to experience this beautiful place! If you have multiple dogs, or your pet may need some extra help my boyfriend Chase’s is willing to help in anyway, and may be assisting me on walks. ❤️ I can work around your schedule! I work from home, so I can be there for your pets most times they need me!! I just need good wifi!! Keeping dogs safe while on walks and sits is a top priority for me. With my extensive experience walking multiple dogs at the kennel, I am skilled in ensuring their safety by utilizing proper leash techniques and monitoring their behavior around other animals and people. Your dog's safety is always my number one concern.

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your postal code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighbourhood.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Edson maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Garbage & recycling: Taking garbage bins to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Edson walking routes, the location of your favourite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
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 Edson 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!
You can find what you need to review a sitter on their profile before booking with them. Each sitters’s profile on Rover shows verified reviews, a background check, and ratings to give a glimpse of how their previous visits went. You can also use the Meet & Greet to walk through your home, identifying which areas, like your bedroom, are off-limits or not. Requesting details of your home security through the app can also be a good way to have your sitter keep you updated about your home.
If you have security cameras or doorbells, Rover asks that you disclose them to sitters before you book.
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 .
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Payment is handled securely through Rover. For a one-time booking, at the time of checkout when you submit your booking request. This charge will include fees payable to Rover. Your booking is confirmed once the sitter accepts it.
If the request is not accepted, the pending charge is released in 1-7 days. How long it takes to disappear from your account depends on your payment provider.
For eligible recurring weekly services, you are charged for the first week when you book and then each Monday for the upcoming week. You’ll see the full price before you confirm. Always pay through Rover so your booking remains eligible for the Rover Guarantee and support.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our .
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements.

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.
