About: I've had animals since I could walk. Through childhood I had rabbits, budgie birds, a cat, and always had puppies and/or dogs. I have extensive hands on experience caring for dogs of many sizes, breeds and energy levels. I raised my own German Shepherd puppy from 8 weeks old through adulthood and into her senior years, giving me a strong foundation in puppy training, large-breed exercise and mental stimulation needs, structured routine, and senior dog care. I've also fostered puppies for the last 3 years, gaining experience with early socialization, basic training, potty routines, and helping dogs adjust to new environments. For the last 15+ years, I've provided dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting for community members, friends and family. I'm comfortable with both high-energy dogs and smaller companion dogs, and I feel strongly about the importance to tailor care based on each individual dog. My experience includes feeding, walking, administering various medication, grooming, reinforcing good leash manners, maintaining consistent schedule, and providing attentive in-home care. I prioritize safety, clear communication, and adapting care based on dogs age/needs. They're all so quirky, with their own needs, preferences, and moods! And that's my favorite part :) Having had my own animals, and having been on the other side of looking for a trusted, reliable sitter, I understand how big of a trust it requires and I empathize with you wanting the very best for your pet. I'm genuinely so looking forward to meeting and spending time with your special companion! I work Monday to Friday with a mix of in office and remote days. This allows me to offer reliable morning and evening care on week days, drop ins on select days, and flexible availability on weekends. When house sitting, I stay overnight and provide consistent care before and after work, with the added bonus of daytime availability on remote workdays. In more detail - pet care fits naturally in my routine. I enjoy being outside and exploring which makes daily walks something I genuinely look forward to - especially with a buddy! Im also happy to stay in and cook or craft, giving space for providing calm and attentive companionship to the more low key, relaxed fluffs. Weekends are free game for whatever your pet is up for! As a previous homeowner and longtime pet owner, I understand how important it is to trust somebody to take proper care of your home and to know your pet is being properly cared for. I assure you I will treat your home with care, respect privacy, and will have a small footprint. I will keep things clean and leave it as I found it. I follow all care instructions closely (feeding schedules, medication, routine, and household guidelines. I'm mindful of home quirks like doors, gates, locks, lights and always do a safety check before coming and going. I value the importance of keeping pets in their home turf, their comfortable environment to reduce stress, maintain routines and help them feel safe and cared for while you're away. Communication is important to me, Im very happy to provide regular updates and photos and will always reach out immediately if anything seems out of the ordinary. I'm happy to follow your preferences on frequency of update. My goal is for you to feel confident that your pet and home is in safe, reliable hands.
About: My animal care experience started at age 15 when I began volunteering at a 24 hour veterinary hospital in Calgary, which became my first job. I grew into a position at the CARE centre in Calgary working with veterinary specialists, and aided in the histopathology lab. I’ve continued adding to my knowledge base with TTouch, Canine First Aid, Mastership in Canine Reiki and I am currently working towards my completion of Canine Paw Reflexology and Animal Communication. I am always looking for new ways and opportunities to expand my knowledge and skill set. I am currently completing schooling online, so this will fit my schedule perfectly as well as expand my ability to help as many animals as possible I will care for your fur baby like they were my own. I follow all home routines detailed by the clients to ensure a smooth and stress-free experience for all. ☺️
“Sophie took great care of our senior cat who requires medication. It can sometimes be hard to trust someone new with your pet, but she was super communicative and I felt confident going on our trip and knowing she was in good hands. I would definitely book again!”

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Invermere 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.

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 sitter 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 sitter 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 sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our .

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.
