“Jessica was great! Our little guy came home very happy. He even pulled us towards her house when we were on our evening walk a couple of nights after his stay with her. 🤣”
“Kimira was fantastic! Very flexible and super accommodating. She sent us photos and updates throughout the day and our four year old pup was very happy when we picked him up from his day with her. We definitely recommend her!”
“Keetah was so great with my crazy dog! Such good communication - lots of updates and photos provided! Tucker already can’t wait to stay with her again (after a long nap). Would highly recommend!”
“This was Bogie's second visit to Deborah's home. He left out of the car and dashed into her yard as fast as he could leaving me in the dust. Clearly he couldn't wait to spend more time with his new friend.”
“Alexa is awesome and I cannot recomend her enough! She was kind enough to do two meet ups with my pup, Ivy, who is generally really nervous around strangers. Ivy loved Alexa the second she met her. She is a high-energy dog with a lot of needs, Alexa did amazing caring for her and walking her. She also took good care of my two cats while I was away on my trip for 2 days, one of which is blind. I have a very specific routine for my animals, Alexa had no problems following my to do list and making sure all of their needs were met, and sent me tons of updates and photos! I will 100% be booking with Alexa again ❤️”
“Once again Menghan has exceeded my expectations with caring for my dog Domi. Menghan switched her schedule and accommodated my last minute requests several times and I can’t appreciate her enough. I fully trust my dog around her and I would recommend everyone to find her. Thank you so much Menghan!”
“Our puppy has had the pleasure of being in Tosha's care for countless times. She is very caring and playful with Stetson. Tosha is always my first call for sitting and daycare.”
“Oh my gosh, a dogwhisper!! Carey is great and she takes such good care of my doggie! Cali gets so excited to see her too! She's my go to sitter for Cali. I am grateful for her🙏❤️”
“Lisa is amazing! Kilo and her are super sweet and considerate, with lots of cute photos, nice long walks, and updates. Macy is always really content and sleepy after a day hanging out with them.”
“What a wonderful couple who were so kind, caring and patient with our anxious rescue! Our pooch isn’t usually a fan of people, but warmed super quickly to Luiz and Luciana! They followed our instructions and sent regular updates. We’ll be regular clients!”
“Irene is amazing. We messaged her last minute on a Saturday evening and she took Milo and her dog for an evening walk together down to the seawall. She took photos of the two of them together on their walk and sent them to use while we were out. 10/10!”
“Angela provided excellent comfort and care for Tater. The extra walks for a short stay were great and Angela’s calm demeanour was so good for Tater. We will be back!”
“Binks (and I) absolutely adore Jennifer and David. They even have a Binks doppelgänger who seems to run their household, so I knew right away he was in the right place. When I first found them, I was rushing to make a deadline, and they kindly stepped in to take care of Binks without hesitation. He bonded with them immediately — he recognizes the familiar smells of a loving home, and they truly understand what it means to care for a high‑energy doodle. Their knowledge of dog behavior gave me complete confidence in leaving my four‑legged kid with them. Binks normally hates my phone, yet somehow they still managed to send me the most amazing photos. And whatever magic they worked… he came home exhausted — in the best way. I wholeheartedly recommend Jennifer and David as dog sitters. Thank you, Jen and Dave, for taking such wonderful care of my boy. ❤️”
“Amy was great to book with and made it easy for me as I was visiting from out of town! She was able to accommodate a last minute daycare booking so I could go fishing with my Dad. She was fast and easy to communicate with and made the booking process easy and stress free. I would highly recommend booking with Amy.”
“We couldn’t be happier with Andrea’s care for our puppy! We didn’t have a good experience with our last sitter on Rover, so we were a bit nervous, but Andrea put us at ease right away. He was incredibly responsive, answering our messages quickly and keeping us updated throughout the day with pictures and notes about how Bobo was doing. It was clear that Andrea genuinely cared for Bobo and made sure he was comfortable and happy. We highly recommend Andrea to anyone looking for a responsible, attentive, and caring dog sitter.”
“Amazing experience! We will definitely come again - Barney was well taken care of. Yoonjoo was really responsive, very friendly, and sent us pictures of Barney while we were away. Highly recommend!”

Jessica is amazing with my pup, Molly! She clearly loves dogs and takes such good care of her. Many walks during the day and reporting back to me with photos, which is very much appreciated. My dog is 12 lbs and adores her dog, Sheriff who is a 75 lb black lab. I don’t think Molly knows she’s small lol. I take her there once a week and I know she will have a fun filled day. I highly recommend Jessica as a caregiver for your pet - she’s great!
Jessica was very helpful with my suggestions and wanting her to meet my "fearful " dog before the actual sitting day. Turned out she had such calming energy that my dog settled right down with her shortly after being dropped off there. She knew what to do to get my little one to be comfortable with her young daughter and also the large family dog.

There are 2,073 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in Gibsons. About 87% of Gibsons 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.
Your dog’s first day care experience is a big milestone! To help your pup settle in comfortably, we recommend:
- Food and treats portioned for the day, with feeding instructions
- Your dog's leash and collar (ensure tags are up-to-date)
- Any seasonal gear, such as paw-safe wax for winter or a cooling vest for the summer
- Medication, if applicable, with clear dosage notes
- Any special care instructions or training tips to help your sitter provide the most personalized care possible
Tip: Upload this information directly through the Rover app before drop-off. The more context you provide, the better your sitter can tailor the day to your dog.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Gibsons commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
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 dog, 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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in BC ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines such as the DHPP or DA2PP, Rabies, and Bordetella.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 80% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 99% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
