1. Gabriella J.

“Gabrielle was wonderful! We received a photo daily which put us at ease. Bailey ate well, had lots of excercise and clearly enjoyed her time with Gabrielle. I was so impressed when Gabrielle let me know that she brought Bailey to a puppy Valentine's celebration in Calgary- just because she thought that the dog would enjoy it! I came home to a spotless house and a happy and healthy puppy. There is no question that Gabrielle will be our go-to puppy sitter for the foreseeable future. A big "thank you" to Gabrielle from our whole family.”


2. Tiana C.

“Tiana was amazing with our 3 dogs, each with different personalities and needs. She went above and beyond to care for the dogs and house while we were away. She took excellent care of our senior dog that requires daily medication. I think my dogs were sad to see her go. Would highly recommend her for dog sitting!”
3. Tania H.


“Tania was awesome! She took care of my cat Ghost. He was very happy with her and she sent great pics showing how content he was. Despite the fact our water heater was leaking and there was no hot water, she cat sat for me and was very accommodating with my date changes and followed the feeding schedule perfectly.!”


4. Valeriia O.

“We went on vacation for 9 nights and came home to 2 very happy dogs! Valeriia sent us updates with photos of how the dogs were doing which eased our minds while we were away. We will definitely look into booking Valeriia again for future trips!”


5. Renée L.

“Absolutely fabulous! I think our dogs like Renee more than us, and that's a good thing. We will re-book Renee again and never use a kennel. The dogs were happy and calm on our return since Renee took them for walks, brushed them, and gave them lots of attention. Really appreciated the photo and video updates. All the house plants were tended to. Highly recommended.”


6. Michelle M.

“It was so wonderful having Michelle stay and watch our dog and cat. She sent lots of updates and they were so well taken care of! 10/10 recommend! Thanks again Michelle!”


7. Bailey G.

“Bailey was wonderful with our puppies Arnie and Dani. It was our first night leaving them alone with a house sitter and they were very happy and cared for! She was very communicative and kept us in the loop the whole time. Definitely recommend and will be reaching out to her again in the future.”


8. Leah J.
“Leah was absolutely amazing with our cat Abby. She sent multiple videos and updates throughout her stay and Abby seemed to really enjoy her company. I would ask leah to sit again in a heartbeat!”


9. Tesa W.

“Tesa did an amazing job looking after my fur babies! We got lots of updates, pictures, and videos! Our house was very clean. The pups seemed very relaxed and happy especially after all the walks Tesa took them for. Absolutely zero problems and no stress whatsoever ❤️ we definitely recommend Tesa, she is extremely reliable and very conscientious.”


10. Claire S.

“Claire was amazing with our dogs while we were gone. Would definitely book with Claire again!”


11. Melissa P.
“Melissa is someone I know I can trust in my home and with our dogs. She has proven to be reliable, loving, and trustworthy. Both dogs have different needs and she is excellent at tending to them while we are away. We are grateful to have Melissa as our dog sitter and definitely can recommend her services.”

13. Kaylin D.
About: I am very passionate about taking care of pets. I can watch dogs, cats, and small animals. I have a bunny at home. I watch my sister’s dog every second weekend, and randomly throughout the week. I have watched pets for week long vacation’s or weekend’s multiple times a year, throughout the years. I have checked in on pets, fed them, played with them, walked them at other’s houses. For longer pet sitting I usually bring the pets to me so they have a constant presence of someone. I currently work part time during the day Monday to Friday with differing hours each day. I have mostly evenings and weekends open and flexible. I follow the directions of the owner if at their home like staying off furniture etc. I do safety walk-arounds and close doors so pets can’t get into anything they aren’t supposed to. Make sure the pets are actively engaged in play so they are less likely to chew on anything or act out. At my home, I am constantly making sure the home is pet friendly and things to keep pets actively engaged so they don’t chew. I have a pet gate that can be used to separate pets or keep out of specific rooms/areas or use my large gated walk in pen (I have a bunny).


14. Annick G.
“Annick is awesome! She took amazing care of my 100lb dog and 3 cats while I went away on vacation. Even dealing with an unfortunate skunking incident that happened while I was gone. I would 100% ask Annick to take care of my pets again.”


15. Amanda T.
“Amanda has stayed with my cat quite a few times in my home for longer stays as well as drop in visits. I have a senior cat on a special diet and occasionally meditation. Amanda was fantastic at making sure all her needs were met and there was lots of love and cuddles. She was very respectful of my home and left everything in great condition. I will definitely have her back and highly recommended her services.”


16. Ashley D.

“We were thrilled with Ashley’s care of our senior dogs. Frequent updates and a ton of patience with our altered travel plans. Thanks Ashley we will certainly use your services again.”


17. Claire M.

“Excellent dog sitting! Cannot say enough great things. Not only did Claire help us plan our trip to a Tofino, her and her partner Etienne took fantastic care of our boy Charlie! Highly recommend their services. Charlie was a happy boy and had a great time to boot! Thanks again!”


18. Alley C.
“I am so glad I found Alley. I have a Rhodesian Ridgeback who can be a bit emotional at times and I was so nervous about leaving him. He doesn't do well when I go downstairs without him so I had no clue how leaving him for a day was going to go. Also, he is a big boy at 85lbs and growing still so I needed to find someone who I felt confident could manage him and Alley is that person. She sent me videos and pictures throughout the day which really helped me to relax. I will absolutely use her to watch my boy as long as she is willing :)”


19. Richard T.
“Richard has an amazing ability to connect with dogs, cats and any animal. He has formed incredible bonds with his own dogs and will definitely treat your pets like his own. He is a master at teaching dogs how to do many things and is very dedicated and reliable. Many dogs have improved their behaviors and I witnessed this many times with the numerous dogs in his care. He is attentive, responsible and truly cares.”


20. Tara Jo K.

“This has been my best experience with Rover in all these years. Tare Jo is an absolute gem. She had to deal with some aggression issues between her dog and mine, and she worked through it and found resolution without blame or judgement. The dogs were exercised multiple times per day and she kept in touch regularly with the sweetest of photos. My place was left cleaner than when I left, and all the bedding and towels were cleaned. Tara Jo is so very skilled, and I will certainly reach out to her in the future.”
