About: I’m an experienced and dedicated animal lover who has cared for a variety of pets, including dogs, cats, and reptiles. I treat every pet as if they were my own - providing them with love, attention, and the same level of care I’d give a cherished family member. I am available any day - please contact for availability or submit a request - I try to be flexible to fit your scheduling needs! On our walks I will take your dog on a hike, a less intense nature walk, or even stay more in urban areas depending on yours and your pets preference if known. At your home I can take your pet for bathroom breaks, clean up messes, provide feedings and water, scoop cat litter and poop outside and play with them to keep the active and stimulated!

“We would 100% ask Elisabeth to watch our two cats again. Both girls took to her quickly (which never happens!), and Elisabeth sent photos and updates during our trip. She made the process easy, is a strong communicator, and put us at ease. Highly recommend! :)”

About: Enjoy spending time with all types of pets big and small, have experience grooming trimming and bathing dogs and cats, currently dealing with a newly blind dog helping him figure out its his surroundings. I'm currently my scheduling is opening up due to retiring employer, I should have lots of availability for dog walking and Pet home check ins always making sure there is food and fresh water, keeping doorways secured and unsafe items out of reach, knowing proper emergency contact information/vet locations and any medication requirements

“I’ve had Yolanda do two drop-in visits in my home for my two pups (16 month old labradoodles) and she did a great job. She took them for a little stretch break and sent pics during the visit, etc. Both pups were calm when I got home and she had no problem with their little routine. Glad I called her and will have her back to hang out with my pups again!”

About: I’ve grown up my whole life with two dogs, big and small, so I know just how important your furry friends are. Since I was 10 years old i’ve taken care of all types of dogs, and I am comfortable providing any type of care. I am a huge animal lover and have had much experience taking care of cats, rabbits, and even reptiles! I am currently in school studying a major in Biology and a minor in Zoology with hopes to spend much of my time around animals. As a dedicated student and lifelong animal enthusiast, I provide attentive, trustworthy care for your furry friends while you’re away. I am more than comfortable house/dog sitting over multiple nights and would love to have a companion in the house! Before caring for your pet, I will hope to be made aware of any special care necessary so I can be prepared and care for your pet in the best way possible. I am currently a student athlete on the women’s volleyball team, studying at UBC Okanagan. This means that most of my time is spent at the school in class, or in the gym. That being said, I do need your pet to be able to be left for longer hours throughout the day and possibly alright late in to the evening. I would plan to discuss my schedule with you in detail so that there is full understanding on when I will be around for overnight care etc. I am always open to discuss the best times needed for a walk around the block with your furry friend. With that in mind, the amount of time your pet is able to stay alone will be the most important question before I am able to provide my care. I have a fenced yard and a lovely german shepherd to keep your fur baby company. There is no crate, but am able to bring one into my home so your dog can sleep peacefully.

“We are so happy miranda is able to take such good care of our boys! Thank you so much, we feel so much better knowing youre looking after our fuzz”

“Georgia was great with my cats! She was able to administer an inhaler for my senior and make sure she only had access to her special vet food. My kitten was scared at first, but quickly got attached to her. Georgia was also great with helping water plants and take garbage out while I was travelling for work. She is very responsible and I felt reassured knowing she was here to help. I highly recommend her!”

About: Hey there, my name is Trinity and I am a HUGE animal lover.I am great at following instructions if your pet is needy or a bit of a handful. I have experience taking care of all sorts of animals since I was a little girl, this includes young and elderly animals.I have also taken care of an elderly cat for an acquaintance multiple times(feeding, cleaning, administering medications, etc.) for extended periods (1 week- 6 months). Furthermore, I have taken care of multiple animals for coworkers and acquaintances on multiple occasions (walking, feeding, and coming up with creative ways to get them to take their medicine! lol). I have now watched dozens of cats and dogs varying in size and breed and have plenty of experience to feel confident in watching any animal, big, small, or even difficult! I am new to rover but not new to animals and how they should be cared for, please message me if you have any questions! I also have plenty of other positive reviews from off app animal sitting jobs if you would like more assurance! Just ask! I'm currently in school, so I have plenty of time to feed, play and care for your pets even on short notice! I have lived and cared for pets my whole life until just this past two months, I am missing my little furry buddies! I want to assure you that I take your beloved pets needs seriously and am grateful for the clients who have trusted me to take care of such precious animals in the past. In addition, if I am looking after your home I will treat your home with the utmost respect and will follow all directions needed to make you feel comfortable whilst your away

About: I've been pet sitting for 21 years and have spent my life caring for animals of all kinds. Over the years, I've worked as a pet sitter, dog walker, kennel assistant, veterinary assistant, and now working toward a profession of dog training, giving me experience with dogs of all ages, breeds, personalities, and energy levels. What sets me apart is that I don't simply exercise dogs - I help them build better habits. Every walk is a training opportunity, with a focus on calm behaviour, loose leash walking, engagement, impulse control, and good manners, all tailored to your dog's individual needs. I'm comfortable caring for puppies, seniors, reactive or anxious dogs, high-energy breeds, and pets requiring medication or special care. Whether your dog needs an adventure, extra patience, or a consistent routine while you're away, I'll care for them as if they were my own while providing plenty of updates and photos for your peace of mind. I'm currently building my dog training business full-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate my attention to every pet in my care. I'm available for weekday walks, drop-in visits, daycare, boarding, and overnight care. Because I intentionally limit the number of pets I care for at one time, every dog receives plenty of individual attention, exercise, and enrichment. My goal is quality care - not rushing from appointment to appointment. Your pet's safety and wellbeing are always my top priorities. I take the time to understand each dog's personality, routines, and comfort level before every booking. I use secure equipment, practice safe handling, and never introduce unfamiliar dogs unless requested by the owner. For boarding, dogs become part of my daily routine with structured walks, rest periods, enrichment activities, and lots of one-on-one attention. I maintain a calm environment that helps dogs feel relaxed and secure while you're away. You'll also receive regular photo updates, so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.

“Jenna went above and beyond caring for my 3 cats. Her updates were informative and gave me peace of mind. I wouldn’t hesitate having Jenna watch them again”

About: I have grown up my whole life with animals. I currently have four dogs and four cats at home. I truly believe pets add so much love to the household. my hours are very flexible and change everyday. I work shifts at a local restaurant in oyama and also at mission hill winery. I’m usually free in the mornings and afternoons/nights vary. I cannot bring pets into my apartment, but will do whatever is needed at a clients home:) obviously each home is different and i will cater to needs, for example taking the dogs for a walk if there is no yard or constantly keeping an eye on the pet if they like to get into things.

About: I have a lifetime of experience working with all sorts of dogs, including puppies, elderly dogs and dogs requiring special care and/or medications. I am also experienced in dog training and grooming. I’m currently a student meaning I spend most of my time at home. Doing online classes can make it difficult to have typical a 9-5 job, being one of the reasons I started dog walking and sitting. As well as it being a passion I’ve had since a very early age. I have a home with a fenced in open space for your fur-babies. As well as many hiking trails located nearby for your pups to explore! Potty breaks every two hours as well as 2-4 walks a day.

About: New to Kelowna.. My love for pets is what sparked me to enter the wonderful world of pet sitting. I have been a dog walker/dog sitter and have been boarding dogs for 8+ years. I understand the importance of trusting someone to care for your family. I love to spend our time at home or out on nature walks! I am currently working part time out of the home 3 days a week with 4 hour shifts. Your pets will have free range of our home and will be treated as family! Your pets will receive lots of love, attention and cuddles!

“Allie was punctual, caring, and professional. She gave a lot of attention to our dog and followed instructions for our picky eater, she is attentive and we would use her again.”

About: I am a university student at UBCO living at home with my family and 2 dogs. This gives me the unique flexibility to stay overnight and care for pets on short notice. I have had dogs my whole life, and currently have a senior rescue, and a puppy at home. This gives me the experience I need to care for all kinds of dogs, well trained, not yet trained, puppies, seniors, rescues, purebreds etc. I have been dog and cat sitting for family friends several times a year for over 3 years since high school. I am a very responsible person, extremely reliable, and communicate well. I love the outdoors and going for walks, as well as lazy days at home. I have a very flexible school and work schedule. I am a student at UBCO and have several 3-4 hour gaps in my day which I can come home and spend time with the pets. I am done my classes around dinner time, and can come straight home for the evening. On the weekends, I am a server at a restaurant in town and generally only work 4-6 hour shifts. This means I am around for the majority of the day. I have been dog walking for many years as I have had dogs my whole life. With clients, I try and keep the pet’s routine as similar as possible to their owner’s. I like to be around as much as possible and keep the pets as comfortable as they can be while their owner is away.

About: I have experience caring for both senior dogs and puppies. My most notable experience was walking Duke, a young golden retriever puppy, daily for a full year. During that time, I helped leash train him, worked on good walking habits, and made sure he got plenty of physical and mental stimulation. I love being outdoors and believe fresh air and enrichment are so important for pets. While I don’t currently have a dog of my own, I do have three rescue cats, one of whom is special needs with only one eye. This has given me firsthand experience with attentive, compassionate care and understanding animals with unique needs. I am currently an engineering student at university, which gives me a flexible schedule. I’m often able to stop by between classes or on days when I don’t have classes at all. I’m usually finished with school early most days, so pet care fits naturally into my routine. Spending time outside with pets is something I really enjoy! it’s a great way to decompress and reset while giving animals the attention and exercise they need. I’ve had experience with both drop-in care and overnight stays in a pet owner’s home. For drop-in visits, I focus on maintaining the pet’s routine—feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship—while the owner is away. I’ve also stayed in clients’ homes for the full duration of their trips, ensuring their pets receive consistent care and familiarity. I enjoy both options and am happy to tailor my services to the owner’s preferences and their pet’s routine.

“Lora was wonderful with my kitty. This was the first time leaving her home since she’s been on her oral meds so I was quite anxious. Lora handled her medications like a pro and I felt comfortable to enjoy my trip. Highly recommend using her services.”
