“We would 100% ask Elisabeth to watch our two cats again. Both girls took to her quickly (which never happens!), and Elisabeth sent photos and updates during our trip. She made the process easy, is a strong communicator, and put us at ease. Highly recommend! :)”
“Gail has been wonderful with our boys and great daily reporting with pictures on how they are during her visits. Highly recommend Gail for your pet sitting needs. Thank you so much Gail!”
“Thank you Paige! I am beyond grateful for you and your clear devotion to genuine care for your clients; pets and people. I was in a pickle and Paige knocked it out of the park, saving the day and the week while handling some inconveniences with grace. 6/5 stars”
About: Hello! I have lived with dogs & cats numerous times over the years and miss being around them! I grew up with many small animals well loved including a tarantula, gold fish, frogs, budgies, and a cockatiel. I have owned two guinea pigs as an adult and absolutely spoiled them with a massive cage and toys, to make up for the one I had as a kid I didn't know how to take care of and have extensive knowledge with them. I also have experience watching bearded dragons, crested geckos, and other small animals. I love looking up information on different animals and breeds as I get to know them and further my knowledge. Thank you for considering me! I work part-time and attend school. Caring for animals is a wonderful way to relax and enjoy life and the personalities that all different animals offer. I am very cautious with plants, things left on the floor, food sensitives and any instructions and needs that the animal has to offer, and you request to feel reassured leaving your pet in my hands.
“Viktoriia is an awesome dog walker. She responds quickly to our requests. She is friendly, committed, timely and most importantly our dog really looks forward to her arrival and walks. Thanks Viktoriia.”
About: Graduated veterinary assistant with previous clinic experience caring for animals of all ages. I love looking after all kinds of animals and I’m always excited to learn about new pets so I can provide compassionate and reliable care! Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine, as I’m currently available during both weekdays and weekends. This allows me to dedicate plenty of time, attention, and quality care to your pets while prioritizing their needs and routines. While I’m unable to care for other pets in my own home due to having high anxiety dogs, I’m happy to provide care in yours. Whether you’re away on a trip or at work, I can stop by for walks, feeding, playtime, bathroom breaks and medication administration if needed.
“I’ve had Yolanda do two drop-in visits in my home for my two pups (16 month old labradoodles) and she did a great job. She took them for a little stretch break and sent pics during the visit, etc. Both pups were calm when I got home and she had no problem with their little routine. Glad I called her and will have her back to hang out with my pups again!”
“Laura was able to come and help us oit last minute. She was responsive, on time and Shep had a lovely time with her. Would highly recommend and will book again in the future.”
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I have 20 years of dog ownership, 8 years with cats, and experience caring for a horse. Professionally, I’ve worked in a doggy daycare for 2 years and as a dog groomer for 1 year, plus 3 years running my own dog-sitting side hustle. I’m confident with dogs of all breeds and personalities and genuinely love what I do. I’m currently building my portfolio as a Newly licensed Residential Property Manager. I make my own schedule and I either work from home or easily on the go, so I figured why not do a bit more of what I really love the most. I currently offer in-home check ins, sitting and walking. As an experienced Pet-Sitter, and a professional property manager, I have a unique understanding of trust and care when it comes to your home and your pet!
“Our cat was well taken care of by Patricia. She showed up on time, took care of all the details, and sent several photos to keep us updated. We would highly recommend her services. She is mature and professional.”
About: I've had animals of my own my whole life and taken care of other's pets for 30+ years. I love all animals, but dogs are my favorite and they only sleep with me if they're allowed 😉. I'm just as happy cuddling with a cat though! I work from home, so I can provide around the clock care for your fur babies! I work from home and have lots of freedom and time to walk and care for your pets. I enjoy being active with the animals, also cuddling up and relaxing. I will provide care for your pets in your home exactly as you see fit. I follow directions well, am adaptable, and just want you and your animals to feel safe and cared for. I'm clean, conscientious and understand the trust and respect needed to have others in your personal space, and I honor that.
About: I share my life with a sweet, high-energy Border Collie/German Shepherd/Husky mix, so I understand the importance of exercise, structure, and attentive care. Having spent most of my life around both dogs and cats, I’m comfortable with a wide range of temperaments and needs. As an active person, I’m well-suited for high-energy play, long walks, and keeping dogs mentally and physically engaged. I aim to return every dog happy, fulfilled, and well-exercised. I also have experience with basic training and reinforcement, and I prioritize consistency, safety, and clear communication. You can count on me to be reliable, respectful of your routine, and attentive to your pet’s individual needs. I work a part time job at an e-bike rental shop downtown Kelowna, outside of work I am happy to take care of your pets, and I usually work a maximum of 6 hours. Rest assured that your pups will receive the attention and care they deserve. I am attention detailed at following your specific guidelines in entering and leaving your home. I am happy to do everything from caring for your pet as well as cleaning if you wish. We can talk about cleaning in person.
“Katherine was able to check in on our 3 cats for us pretty last minute, and everything went very smoothly! She communicated well, sent picture updates, and we came home to happy kittens :) would book her again!”
About: I've grown up with pets and have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and energy levels. Whether your pup loves lounging on the couch or going on an adventurous hike, I'm happy to match their vibe. I’m also comfortable with senior care and basic puppy training, so your pet will be in good hands, no matter their age or needs. Since I work from home most days, I have plenty of time to care for your pet. I can easily fit in walks, playtime, or cozy check-ins throughout the day to keep your furry friend happy and comfortable. Being home means I’m always nearby, ready to give your pet the attention they need whenever they need it. When caring for pets in my home, I create a safe, calm environment where they can feel relaxed and loved. I stick to their usual routines as much as possible, including feeding, playtime, and rest. When I care for pets in their own homes, I respect their space and follow any instructions carefully to keep them comfortable and stress-free. Whether at my place or theirs, my goal is to provide consistent, attentive care tailored to each pet’s needs.
“Kayla has great communication before and during the cat sitting. She followed all the instructions including giving the cats their meds daily and providing great updates to me. The cats were well taken care of. I would highly recommended her services!”
“I cannot express how amazing Ashley was with my puppy Chester. He was so calm and looked content as can be when I came home. Ashely followed the guidelines for Chester and was so respectful of our home. She was clear with communication and punctually with her recording/log of his car. I will for sure be asking Ashley to help with Chester again. ??”
About: I've had the pleasure of caring for many different kinds of animals throughout my life. I've owned many pets ranging guinea pigs, and bunnies to cats and a dog. I have had 6+ years of experience training my Labrador retriever, we have completed training courses as well as a 4 month long agility program. I have also gotten to care for many different cats, and their unique personalities. I am currently self employed, mostly working remotely with a flexible schedule so I have plenty of time to care for your critters! I am available most weekdays & weekends starting around 11am. I carefully follow provided instructions to show my best care to each of my furry clients. I treat them as though they are my very own and am careful to always keep animals collared/harnessed and leashed (when applicable). My furry clients' safety is my first priority at all times. I will be sure to keep pets safe and secure, securing any enclosures and locking up the home upon my departure. Additionally, I maintain notes/records of client care/interactions and am happy to offer updates on a schedule that works for the family of the pet I am caring for.
About: I have always loved dogs and any chance I could get to spend time with them I took. I helped my family walk their dogs whenever I could. Sometimes I would walk my neighbours samoyed. I rented a place for 2 years and would look after my landlady's dogs while she was on vacation, walking them, feeding them, playing with them, and letting them out regularly for bathroom breaks. I also volunteered at my local SPCA while in school. I currently work part time so I will have plenty of time to go make sure your pups are let out for bathroom breaks and get the attention they deserve! I care for pets in their home by making sure I am familiar with the routine they are used to. I respect my clients home and make sure I am clear in expectations. I make sure that their pets are cared for in a way that exceeds expectations. I understand the stress of travelling and having to leave your pet behind, and I want to make sure that my clients do not have to worry one bit and can focus on their vacation!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Kelowna
Alison is amazing! Definitely a cat whisperer! One of my cats runs and hides if he sees there is someone at the door he doesn't know. When Alison came to the door for the first time, he actually approached for some pets! I am so impressed by the genuine care she has for my kitties and the time she put in to understanding the routine they have, as well as all my high maintenance things I do for them. Also, great at keeping up communications. And when the unexpected happens while you're away, you can definitely rely on her to handle it! Overall, one of the best cat sitters and home sitters I've ever had!
Nicole took wonderful care of my two cats while I was away for 10 days. She was reliable, attentive, and clearly cared about making sure they were happy and well looked after. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. I came home to two relaxed, happy cats, and everything was just as I had left it. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Nicole to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter, and I’ll definitely be asking her to watch my cats again in the future!
My partner and I have been experiencing a family emergency that has required us to be away from our home. Paige has done an excellent job taking care of our sweet kitty named Kits. Paige is reliable, always on time, and great at maintaining communication. Paige has gone above and beyond to help us by providing exceptional care for Kits during this time. We appreciate Paige very much.
Jocelynn was absolutely amazing with Fen. Fen can be sometimes skittish around new people, but she was able to connect with her quite easily. She was good with administering pills orally via mouth so if you have a senior animal like me with medical issues they will be in good hands. A++ and will definitely book her again.
Shana is honestly the best, takes the time to make sure the animals are cared for and spends time with them every time she stops by. I feel so at peace being gone knowing my animals are in such good hands. I’ll never book anyone else unless I absolutely have to!! Absolutely the best and just a genuine and kind hearted human.
Fen was so kind to look after our girls - even though they're cats! We booked late, but Fen ensured a meet & greet occurred ahead of time to learn of our cats' picky needs. We received photos and updates twice each day, and Fen was never hard to get ahold of, responding quickly every time. The cats are happy and felt comfortable enough to come out and socialise, even though they typically hide. I would book Fen again in a heartbeat and think you should, too!
Jessica took great care of Grumbles while I was away! She was good at sending updates and being responsive to messages. She was also flexible in the schedule - I needed to add an extra day and she was able to accommodate my request without an issue. Thanks from me and Grumbles!

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.

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 cat, 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.

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.

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.
