About: I’ve been pet sitting for just over 6 years and have fallen in love with the work. I specialize in multi pet homes and furry friends that may have specialized diets and/or medication needs. I recently have relocated to the city after graduating school for aviation! I’m on a job hunt currently but for the time being my schedule is clear and open for your little one! Your pets safety and comfort is my top priority! My goals are to try and disrupt routines the least when you’re away from your pet as well as send regular updates and photos!
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. I have an extremely flexible work from home/anywhere schedule with my current job, which allows me the freedom to help provide care for your furry family members. I can work from almost anywhere that has a charging outlet and a wifi connection, which i believe makes me an excellent choice for in your home care, or even a quick wellness visit! 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: Hi there I’m 28 and I love animals specially dogs I will watch them and treat them like my own. They will be safe and secure with me. Most animals fall in love with me. I have experience watching and taking care of pets as I have all my life. Love playing with them walking them and spoiling them with treats. I will walk them feed them and keep an eye on them while you out or on vacation. When I get to know a dog and they grow to love me they can’t wait for me to come back or don’t want me to leave at all. You can trust watching your dog because i have experience where other might not. Thank you. Brit

About: I have had cats my entire life - my childhood family cat is currently 17 years old! I have cat-sat for senior cats, mature cats, and young cats before, including administering medication and applying eye ointment. I have cared for anxious, shy cats before, as well as cats on special diets, and cats who need extra grooming due to their coats. My profile photo is me with one of the cats I have cat-sat! I have a 13 year old cat myself who takes medication in the form of pills. I adopted him last year - I have a soft spot for older kitties, but love cats of all ages! I love dogs too and research to stay up-to-date on how to care for them, but it has been many years since I have cared for a dog. I have flexible availability as a university student who works part-time. I am available many evenings and mornings, and some afternoons. I have my own vehicle for transportation. I am very respectful of others' homes. I scoop litter boxes daily. I wash used food dishes and food scoops. I ensure any messes are cleaned up. I respect your pet's body language and verbal communication.
About: What sets me apart is my 11 years of hands-on experience raising my own dog from puppyhood to its senior years.

Since I work from home, pet care is naturally integrated into my day. I provide constant supervision and companionship, taking regular breaks for walks, backyard playtime, and belly rubs. Your pet will never be alone and will enjoy a consistent routine right alongside me. I provide a secure, supervised, and loving environment. I specialize in maintaining consistent routines and constant monitoring to ensure every pet feels safe. From senior-friendly spaces to active puppy supervision, I use my 11 years of experience to manage potential risks and provide total peace of mind for every owner.
About: Experienced in caring for dogs from playful pups to wise seniors (8 weeks to 14+ years), I tailor my pet sitting and training services to meet your dog's specific needs.

Rest easy knowing your furry friend is in skilled hands, receiving the care they need at every stage of life! As I navigate my job search, pet sitting offers a flexible and rewarding opportunity that seamlessly fits into my week.

About: I grew up around animals and have years of hands-on experience with both dogs and cats. I’m patient, reliable, and understand how to care for pets of all ages — from playful puppies to gentle seniors. I offer loving, safe walks and drop-in visits with full attention to your pet’s needs. I usually take care of pet walks after 4 PM and am available for walks or visits then. My schedule is flexible in the afternoons and evenings to fit your pet’s needs. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and loving environment for every pet, whether in my home or the client’s. I follow all care instructions carefully, keep hazardous items out of reach, and supervise pets closely during walks and playtime. Trust and open communication with pet owners are very important to me to ensure pets feel comfortable and well cared for at all times.
About: I truly love getting to know each dog's unique personality and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved in my care. I have experience with dogs of all ages, including seniors who need medication or extra support. I also enjoy working with puppies, using patience and positive reinforcement to help them learn good habits and build confidence. My goal is always to care for every pet as if they were my own. ❤️ I currently work full-time but have a long enough lunch break to check in on pets as needed. My weekends are completely free, allowing me to provide dedicated care and attention. Additionally, I have many holidays available for full-time stays, and I’m especially flexible during the summer as i have the full summer off. This schedule lets me ensure your pets receive the care and companionship they need, while also allowing for regular updates and quality interaction throughout the day. I focus on creating a positive and engaging atmosphere, offering playtime, affection, and mental stimulation to keep them happy. Communication is key, so I provide regular updates and photos to keep you informed while you’re away!! Your pet’s happiness and well-being are my top priorities!

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.

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.
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.
