Helen is the kind of sitter you don’t have to worry about. She met with us beforehand, walked our dog to get familiar with her, and looked after both our dog and cat while we were away. She followed our instructions exactly, sent regular updates, and left the house spotless. Both animals were completely unbothered when we got home. We’d book her again without hesitation!

Ashling took excellent car of our young puppy! I loved receiving pictures and updates throughout the day. Our pup is high energy at this age but seemed to be well entertained and tuckered out by the time we came home. We can’t wait to have Ashling care for him again!

About: Helping your pets living their best life! I’m experienced with big size dogs, elder animals, giving medication if needed. I have my pet first aid course. But most of all, I’m a pet sitter that cares a lot about your pet’s well being and will adapt to all level of energy! I work part time at Island Lake Lodge so my calendar is very flexible for pet sitting at your place or walk your dog during the work days. I walk dogs around Fernie and I’m willing to move around in Elk Valley for multi night pet sitting. Always one dog at a time (or multiple dogs if they are from the same household). I also take care of cats & other pets and will give them all the love they deserve!

Amber truly engaged with Max, taking him on long walks and the dog park. He loves cuddles and she gave him the love he deserves. She took wonderful care of our home. Thanks Amber!

Zoë is awesome plain and simple. She took such good care of my boy and kept me posted all the time with great pictures of their adventures. I will be looking to use her services again and would highly recommend to anyone!

About: All my pets have been a huge part of the family. They have done everything with me. I have a service dog that was trained mostly by myself and then certified. Animals are comfortable with me. I am respectful, responsible and reliable. I travel with my husband or on my own. Life is an adventure and meant for living with animals... I am retired. My schedule will be around the animals needs... walks, cuddles and meal times. Poop clean up, a little training if needed and treats. I have a service dog that needs walking 2 times a day. We play games and cuddle. He loves to be brushed and loves to have spot washes.

This was our first experience using a Rover sitter and it turned out great! Ophelia met with us and our pets beforehand, as well as went on a walk to learn the cues we use with our dog, which showed great attention to detail and helped her know what to expect. She sent photos and updates, kept our place clean, and made sure our dog was well exercised so we could come home and relax after our trip. We were a bit nervous because our dog can be a handful and our cat unexpectedly needed medication, but she handled everything like a pro. We’d definitely book with her again!

We're so happy with our experience using Ellie and Sam through Rover. They watched over our 6 month old pup in our own home for a number of nights. After a quick meet and greet before leaving we knew they were trustworthy people, and that Georgia was going to be in safe hands. We received numerous updates and photos while we were away and no questions or requests were to much of a bother. Georgia is a happy girl and we have some amazing photos for keeps now! Thankyou Ellie and Sam!
