About: I’m a Registered Veterinary Technologist (RVT) with 9 years of professional animal care experience and a lifelong love for animals! I have extensive experience handling dogs of all sizes, from small breeds to giant breeds, and am comfortable caring for pets with medical needs, administering medications, and recognizing changes in health or behaviour. I also have two senior dogs, one of whom is currently receiving palliative care, as well as three cats, including one with diabetes. This has given me an even deeper appreciation for the patience, attention and extra care that senior pets and pets with medical conditions need. I have a background in dog walking and understand the importance of providing safe, positive and engaging experiences for every pet. Whether your pet is young, senior, energetic or needs a little extra care, I’ll treat them like family and make sure they feel safe, comfortable and happy! I’m happy to walk and visit with your pets in all types of weather! Rain, snow, or sunshine, your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are always my priority. ❤ I work part-time as a Registered Veterinary Technologist, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of opportunity to provide attentive, quality care to pets. Animal care is already a big part of my everyday life, and I genuinely love spending my free time with animals. I’m able to work around my schedule to accommodate walks, drop-in visits and personalized care. I understand how important consistency and communication are, and I’ll always make your pet’s well-being a priority! As a Registered Veterinary Technologist, safety and animal well-being are always my top priorities. I have extensive experience handling animals of all sizes, recognizing signs of stress or illness, administering medications and caring for pets with special medical needs. When caring for pets in their own homes, I strive to maintain their normal routines and environment to help them feel comfortable and stress-free. I take the time to understand each pet’s individual personality, needs and preferences. I believe in patience, positive interactions and clear communication with pet parents. I’ll always treat your home with respect and your pets like they’re part of my own family!
About: I’ve been a lifelong dog lover and have had the privilege of raising both rescue dogs and a purebred Golden Retriever over the years. Each one has shaped how I care for animals—with patience, understanding, and a lot of love. In our home, pets truly are family. Their happiness, comfort, and well-being are always a top priority, just as if they were children. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your dog, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m known for being kind, conscientious, and reliable—not just with dogs, but with people too. I’ll always communicate clearly, show up when I say I will, and make sure you feel confident your pet is in good hands. I’m currently working part-time, which allows me to dedicate quality time and attention to the pets in my care. My approach is simple—I care for every pet as if they were my own. That means plenty of exercise tailored to your dog’s individual needs, along with a strong focus on mental stimulation through enrichment, play, and engagement—not just walks. In a client’s home, I respect your pet’s routine and environment, keeping things as consistent as possible to reduce stress. I make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and mental stimulation, while also giving them the patience and calm presence they need to feel at ease. I care for every pet as if they were my own—prioritizing their comfort, happiness, and well-being at all times.
“Elena is reliable, kind, and excellent with my dog! She is definitely my “go-to”. She came and met Molly before she started walking her. Molly really enjoys her walks and I get pictures, video and messages if needed. Molly‘s always just walked with me and the ease at which she accepted this new routine can be attributed to Ellen’s kindness, and maybe pocket treats”
About: My husband and I have owned dogs for the past 15 plus years together, and our families both owned them for many years growing up. While he would not attend your home with me, I like everyone to know that our entire house is Pet lovers. My soft spot is for seniors, and dogs with varying degrees of health related issues. The ones that nobody wants and the often misunderstood ones. I have cared for a variety of breeds with varrying degrees of health issues. I have extensive experience in administering medications, IV fluids, intramuscular injections, eye drops, nail trims, and more. I have had 2 blind dogs (one of which had both of her eyes removed due to glaucoma), so am very familiar with their sometimes unique challenges. I also have experience caring for dogs with little to no hearing, as well as ones with various levels of behavioral challenges, such as resource/food guarding, stranger/leash aggression, and more. As the owner of Manitoba's ONLY small animal rescue charity, I also have a wealth of knowledge and experience with exotic and small animals such as rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, and more! While I love a good puppy cuddle, my heart belongs to the older four (or less!) legged friends, and I would love the opportunity to meet your furry family members. Thanks to some amazing clients and word of mouth referrals, I was recently able to quit my corporate job to do pet sitting full time! I am so incredibly greatful for this new schedule, which allows me to dedicate as much time aa possible to caring for your furry family members. I love the idea of coming to your home to care for your pets, as it allows them to continue to feel safe and in a familiar environment. Following their regular routine helps make any time away from mom and dad as stress free as possible. Pets are never left outside unattended, and if you don't have a completely fenced yard, they will always be on a secure leash for potty breaks. If spending overnights in your home, I welcome the pets to share a sleeping space, or crate them as requested. Even if I do things different with my own pets, I want to ensure all of your rules and routines are followed while you are away.
About: I've cared for pets, mostly dogs and understand how important it is to keep them comfortable while their owners are away. I know that makes them sad so I do my best to make them happy/cheer them up. I'll make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for. I'll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you know how they're doing. I work hybrid (some days from home some days in the office) so pet care fits well into my routine, and I enjoy making time for walks, playtime, feeding, and maybe some snuggles. I do my best to keep pets on their normal schedule so they feel comfortable and settled if doable with the schedule. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I do my best to try and learn their personality and apply any special instructions before caring for them. Whether I'm looking after them in your home or mine, I'll provide a calm, safe environment and follow your directions closely. I'll treat your pet like they're my own and keep you updated along the way.
About: Due to my work with children, I tend to be a very patient person. This applies to all animals! Young or old. I have experience with dogs, cats, and guinea pigs. Due to school being online, I have a completely open schedule for pet sitting. I do tutor for about an hour during the evenings but I can work around everything. I strongly believe in crates and pens so your lovely pet does not hurt themselves. I always make sure to maintain constant communication with their owners.
About: I have been watching my neighbors dogs for many years, since I was 16, this includes letting them outside to go to the bathroom, giving them food and water, playing with them, and taking them outside on walks. I have also been cat sitting for numerous people since I was 17. I have recently stayed at my sisters and watched, played with, fed, and cleaned out the litter box of her two cats. I am very comfortable with either cats or dogs and have many years of experience with both. I’m currently working part time so I will have plenty of time to hang out with your pets! I am available for boarding anytime, seeing as I do not work long hours. I have more time on the weekends because I do not work then. I can take your dogs on walks around the neighborhood, play fetch with them, fill their water and food bowls, and clean up anything after them. I can cuddle your cats, play with them, feed them and give them water, and clean their litter box, as well as anything else you may want me to do.

About: My name is Julia and I have been dog and cat sitting for over 7 years and have owned multiple pets. I love animals, and have a chihuahua, papillon and husky! My husky is 2 years old and we’re always out for walks, playing at the park and training. I am always mindful of space, mood and boundaries when interacting with any animal I am caring for. I have been a pet sitter for the past 7 years because I love meeting new animals and genuinely enjoy being around & caring for them. I would love to meet you and your pet (even though they really are family)! I am available for pet sitting and drop visits. I have a flexible schedule at the moment and am able to accommodate outside of already booked times I am always mindful of gates and fences / doors when letting animals outside. Making sure that doors and gates are closed as well as any escape holes covered. I am checking on the animals periodically throughout the day. I typically crate my large dog at bed time and let the two little ones sleep in bed with me.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Many sitters respond to requests in under an hour. Whether you are planning ahead for public holidays, need last-minute care, or same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once.
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.
Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in Grande Pointe. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighbourhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
Tip: Keep in mind that many cities in Canada require your dog walker to have a permit or licence for group walks.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Grande Pointe after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits, dog walking, and doggy day care. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find walkers in Grande Pointe with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.
Every walker 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.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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 Grande Pointe 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!
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
