“Ronilyn did an awesome job! My cats were well taken care of. She provided very cute photos of them while we were on vacation. It was comforting to see my cats were happy and well fed. Thank you Ronilyn! I would recommend Ronilyn to all my family and friends ! :)”
“Alyssa is great, she is super reliable. She genuinely cares for my cat and I feel better knowing she is giving her love when I can’t be there! Also she handles giving meds to my cat with no issue!”
About: I’m known as the go to dog sitter among my friends and coworkers! I love having another personality around the house and my two dogs love it too! My dogs are westie and a blue heeler, so I have some experience with working and high energy breeds! We have tons of walking paths around, river access and a dog park nearby. I’m confident with crates/kennels and giving meds. I have quite a bit of free time and when I do work, I can stop at home for an extra potty break mid shift to make sure all is well My own dogs are crate trained and I prioritize some on and off leash time daily. My boys love frisbee and fetch in the fully fenced back yard and we make time for a few dogsports too!Both are super social with other dogs, we have many adventures camping and meeting with friends.
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
“I wish I could give Samana 10 ☆s! Samana's compassion knows no bounds. She genuinely loves what she does and her animals! This was my 1st occasion away from Phoebe in a year. She was diagnosed with diabetes in April and I thought it would be difficult to find a qualified caregiver. Samana provided daily updates, photos, and notes. I had NO concerns whatsoever. Highly recommend and will absolutely book again.”
About: Having owned two wonderful dogs in my life and been a special friend & "aunt" of several other dogs and some cats. I am highly experienced and motivated to help you care for your beloved furry family members. I am warm, friendly and calm around animals and I find they are naturally drawn to me. I am trained in reiki and use gental reiki energy to balance and relax your pets in your absence. I do contract work and I am writing a book, so my time is flexible and I am available to spend quality time with your pets. As a sitter who would be in your home, caring for your pets, I would be able to follow your established schedule in order to cause the least distress and or disruption for your pets.
“Blayne was very professional and friendly. She sent many updates with pictures and videos of my cat Bravo after the visits, and allowed me to have a peaceful trip knowing Bravo was in good hands! Thank you so much Blayne.”
“Emily was amazing! She was so attentive to all of our care instructions and very patient with us as first time fur parents. She was so patient with our 2 young reckless boy cats and they loved her so much. She never left one stone unturned during the visit and always made sure they were well taken care of. She always made sure to ease our anxiety while away with lots of cute and funny photos & videos! We all can’t wait to have her back in the future :)”
About: I've been caring for dogs and cats since I was a child, and animals have always been a big part of my life. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience with feeding, grooming, walking, bathing, and both potty and crate training. I’ve also helped with basic obedience training and understand the patience and consistency pets need to feel safe and happy. Friends, family, and neighbors regularly trust me with their pets, knowing I treat every animal as my own. I’m dependable, gentle, and genuinely love spending time with animals. I currently work remote, so have a lot of flexibility to board at my home and attend to your pets needs throughout their stay or visit your home and take care of walks, potty breaks, play time, and grooming. I have a fully fenced yard in my townhouse so dogs can enjoy safe, supervised time outside. Inside, pets are welcome to enjoy furniture, yes, that includes the couch. I keep my space clean and pet-friendly and free of hazards. When I care for pets in a clients home, I do my best to maintain their usual routines and respect their habits and space. I'm mindful and tidy and make sure pets have access to fresh water and clean litter boxes, and lots of attention. My focus is to keep them happy, safe, and comfortable.
About: 🐾 Availability Update Summer 2026 is fully booked. I am now accepting bookings for the Christmas holidays, but availability is limited and filling quickly. I’ve been providing professional pet care for over three years and have been fortunate to build lasting relationships with many wonderful clients and their pets. I intentionally keep my client list small so I can provide attentive, personalized care and build genuine bonds with every animal I look after. I’m excited to welcome a few new pets and families into my routine and look forward to meeting you and your furry companions! 🐶🐱❤️ I work full-time Monday through Friday; however, my weekends are fully open and I always prioritize my pet clients’ schedules. I’m experienced in coordinating care around varying routines and am happy to work together to find what best suits your pet’s needs. For the comfort and consistency of the pets I care for, I primarily provide overnight care in my clients’ homes. This allows pets to stay in their familiar environment and maintain their regular routines. I’m not offering boarding at this time, though this may change around November 2026.
“This was my first time to have someone other than a family member look in on my semi-elderly cat while I was away. I'm so pleased that I chose Tracy for my little bub's daily checkups. Tracy was there every day on time and this made for the best experience for my shy elderly cat. I would definitely book Tracy in the future.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter than Zoe. She did drop-in visits for our four cats over two weeks and truly went above and beyond in every way. Her communication was excellent—she provided detailed notes after each visit along with lots of pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our cats were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Zoe also took amazing care of our home. She even shoveled when it snowed and brought in packages that arrived while we were gone, which was incredibly thoughtful. When we returned, the house smelled fresh and clean—not like litter at all—which says so much about the level of care she put in. We would absolutely recommend Zoe to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring pet sitter.”
About: I am an educator that has gone to peoples homes to work with children. My favourite part is all of the different pets I get to see which they all love me. I work part time for the county doing customer service and tutor sometimes in the evenings. I can be gone from 6-8 hours on some days or home all day depending on my schedule. I love to spend all of my free time cuddling with pets or going on walks ❤️. I am a very clean individual and so I always like to make sure I leave it just as clean when I leave. Not only that but I always ensure that I give focus to animals, playing with them frequently, going on walks (if cats like it I do walks for them too!), and of course taking care of their needs.
“We’ve used Cari to care for our 125lb 15month old puppy multiple times. She has been caring, attentive and reliable. She has assisted in training our dog in multiple ways (leash manners, drop it, etc) as well as offered insight into nutritional needs based on careful reviews of stools, etc. Cari is incredibly knowledgeable and compassionate with her care. I’d love to give her 0/5 stars so that nobody else uses her and she’s always going to be available when we need her because I’ll be so sad if there comes a time she isn’t able to care for our dog when the need arises - but alas, she earned a solid 5 stars! Thank you Cari!”
About: All animals and kids gravitate to my energy which is amazing ! They know what good energy is ! I love all animals like they are my own ! I am an entrepreneur so I basically have an open schedule , can fit any animals needs. So whatever you need I can definitely be of service ! I personally prefer to animal sit at the owners home because the animals feel most comfortable there. I do have a huge yard at my pace that is gated
“A big thank you to Ashton. I asked him to do a two hour drop in. Of course, my dog had diarrhea . Ashton dealt with it without making a fuss, and my dog is happy that he didn't have to be in the kennel for the whole morning.”
“Rylyn provided excellent care for our senior dachshund. It was such a relief to have someone comfortable with senior pets, and not minding cleaning up messes. We will def book her again.”
About: I've had dogs my whole life and am a new cat mama! Started a dog walking and pet sitting business two years ago in cold lake and am looking to continue on with dog walking while finishing my schooling I am a full time student looking for something fun & active to do during my spare time. I will be starting my practicum in a vet clinic at the end of March! I rent a basement suit and will not be able to pet sit in my home however am able to do so in your home. I always try my best to keep the same routine with your pet(s) that you have set, while you are away.
About: What sets me apart is the level of personalized care and attention I give to each pet. Since I work from home, your pet will receive consistent, focused companionship throughout the day. I have hands-on experience training puppies and can help reinforce positive behaviors while keeping routines consistent. I’m also attentive to the unique needs of senior pets, ensuring they stay comfortable, safe, and supported at all times. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or calm and cuddly, I tailor my care to match their personality, age, and specific needs — just like they’re part of my own family. Pet care just fits right into my day. I’m always around to give them my full attention. We go for 1-2 walks every day, and I make sure there’s always time for play. It’s all about keeping things balanced and making sure they’re happy and active. At home, I’m all about making sure my pets feel comfortable and happy, with lots of attention, daily walks, and playtime. If I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow the same approach—giving them the care and attention they need based on their routine. Whether it’s walks, feeding, or just spending time with them, I try to make sure they feel as relaxed and cared for as possible.
“This was the first time I've left Bee all by herself and she was well loved and content when I returned. David sent me photos for every check-in and took time to play with her and talk to her. I highly recommend him; he put my mind at ease and I could enjoy my vacation.”
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Fort Saskatchewan is $23
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fort Saskatchewan
Falon took care of my cat for a few days and took pictures with most visits twice a day. She communicated when there was an alteration to the schedule. Communication was clear and prompt. Cat seems like he was treated well other than missing his people. Would recommend Falon for pet care services.
Sofia was amazing! She was so patient with our cats and gave them so much love and sent us so many pictures! We are so grateful for how flexible Sofia was as some instructions / dates had changed during the trip and she was so easy to communicate with! I would highly recommend Sofia to anyone!

There are 1,079 sitters on Rover for Pet Sitting in Fort Saskatchewan. About 89% of Fort Saskatchewan sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or travelling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer poop breaks during a Fort Saskatchewan stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover based on what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
You can coordinate how much supervision you want directly with your sitter. While every sitter’s schedule varies, here are some examples of supervision by pet care service:
- Boarding or doggy day care: Many sitters can provide frequent companionship because they design their day specifically around the pets in their care or work from home.
- House sitting: Your sitter generally stays in your home for the requested duration, which may include overnight care. They may step out briefly to visit other pet clients, but your home remains their primary base.
- Drop-in visits or dog walking: These can be scheduled in 30- or 60-minute windows (and can be shorter or longer at your request) to help your pet receive dedicated attention and care during those specific times.
Interested in constant or 24/7 care? This service often incurs an additional fee but many sitters are happy to discuss this option with you.
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 Fort Saskatchewan 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!
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 .
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 pet, 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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a veterinary professional or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means Rover Support will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
