About: I’ve had and lived with dogs my entire life; I actively enjoy and love walking and hanging out with dogs of all types and sizes. As a full time worker and a student, having some down time with your pets is my honour! Typically I am away for work most of the day, however am thrilled to take care of them both before, after and in the evenings. Gives me a mental break, and you relief that your pets are in good hands. I grew up walking all sorts big dogs, small dogs, fluffy or tough dogs. I am not shy of a leash or commanding if need be.

Angela was so professional and supportive while assisting me with delivering my cat her meds. I am a long time cat owner, but the new to me cat is the first I have had who absolutely needs to be put in a "purrito" or she will run away and hide and spit up all of the medicine. Angela was so gentle with our cat and her kind approach helped us learn strategies to give kitty medications in the future. Sometimes you just need a professional. We appreciated Angela's help so incredibly much.

About: I have always had a cat in my life and I have also volunteered over 200 hours caring for cats at the SPCA. I experienced a wide variety of cats, including many shy and anxious ones. While I have the most experience with cats, I would love to take your well-behaved dog for a walk or run. I am currently a student taking online courses, so I have complete flexibility for drop-in visits and walks throughout the week. I plan my schoolwork around visits so I can meet your pet’s needs and stay consistent with their routine. I’m a calm and patient person, and I always let your cat or dog approach me on their own terms. I never force interaction—I give them the space they need to feel safe and comfortable around me.

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: 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 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’m currently experiencing puppy fever, but I’m not entirely sure if I should commit fully to a pooch at this point as I am in a apartment. But for short visits and long walks would be amazing at this time. Looking forward to getting to meet your little one! I grew up with a beautiful golden retriever who loved the outdoors and swimming. I miss her sooo much. I’m thinking about getting a smaller dog! So here I am, willing to care for your precious pup. Looking for companions to keep me busy and someone to take on long walks. I work from 3pm-11pm Tuesday-Saturday. I also have Sunday/Monday completely free :) I would prefer dogs to come stay with me, but willing to come to yours if your dog prefers to stay at home. I make sure nothing is left out for the dogs to get into. I follow personalized instructions to respect the owners training. We go for walks that are suited to each dog.

About: My experience with pets is life long! I grew up on a farm with all kinds of animals, worked on a horse farm and dog sat all throughout my teen years. I work in downtown Kelowna full time but my hours vary week by week. But I always have time for a nice long walk with your dog during the day! I do not offer pet care in my own home as I don't have the right outdoor space for it. I take great care to ensure your dog is safe, secure and happy during all walks and drop in visits. I also take great care when house sitting, making sure to leave it in even better condition than when I arrived.

About: I have a large mix breed rescue pup who we have developed lots of skills and knowledge from through his care and training. He is now 1.5 years old and I would love to apply these skills to caring for your pets whilst you’re away! I know how important and sometimes difficult it is to find the right person to look after your dog or cat in your absence. There is also the potential for finding a dog friend for our own pup so that we could have a mutual pet sitting relationship ☺️ Growing up, we had a family cat who was a member of the family and lived until 20 years old. As an adult, I have looked after and cared for many of my housemates pets including their cats and several dogs. I love animals and I’m very grateful for the opportunity to spend time with your beloved pets while you’re away. I work full-time but I would be able to check on and care for your pets before 8am and after 4pm. I am also available for the whole weekend and summer break July and August. Currently, I would like to pet sit in your house whilst our puppy is still in training. We may eventually be able to board in our home also.

Hope was excellent with my puppy. She is 20 weeks old and is teething. She is quite mouthy right now and Hope was calm and patient with her. I will be asking Hope to return on those days when I have to be out of the house for extended periods.

About: I grew up on a hobby farm and have spent my entire life caring for animals of all kinds. I'm comfortable and confident with dogs of every size, with extensive experience handling large breeds and bully breeds. I understand the importance of consistency and can reinforce your dog's existing training, routines, and boundaries while they're in my care. Whether your dog loves long hikes, trail runs, games of fetch, or simply enjoys plenty of attention and affection, I tailor my care to their individual needs. As someone who is physically active, I'm well equipped to provide the exercise and enrichment that high-energy dogs require, while ensuring they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. My goal is to give every pet a fun, enriching, and nurturing experience so you can have complete peace of mind while you're away. Available weekends at any time for walks, drop-ins, and pet care. I provide reliable, attentive care with plenty of time for exercise, enrichment, and companionship. I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I treat every dog in my care as if they were my own, taking the time to understand their personality, routines, and individual needs. I provide a safe, positive environment with plenty of attention, exercise, enrichment, and affection. I’m confident handling dogs of all sizes, including large breeds and bully breeds, and I’m happy to maintain the training, boundaries, and routines you’ve established. My goal is to give your dog the same care, patience, and respect I would want for my own.

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!

About: My love for animals took root at a very young age, and has just grown steadily over time. I grew up in east Kelowna. We were raised with dogs, horses, chickens, cats. Later on in life it expanded to kids, geckos and fish as well as more horses and dogs and cats. I had a litter of puppies while pregnant ( that was a challenge near the end lol ) as well as nursed many animals back to health. My favorite part about dogs is they are genuine ( for the most part) lol and can read a human instantly. Some may take a little time to fullly decide but for the most part, they can sense the purity of your soul. They will be your best friend for life and will never turn their back on you. My life has taken a big curve and i haven't owned a dog for a few years. I have been " Aunty M " ( sometimes called mom to those who don't have one) to many animals since then. Especially to the ones who may feel a little neglected or for reasons beyond control they don't have a constant human. People need to work and some have jobs out of town. I am the one they turn to because animals enjoy me as much as I enjoy them. They are my weakness, I will always have a soft spot just for them. I also took care of a household ( garden. yard) with 3 kids 3 dogs 2 cats and 2 geckos while doing renos before selling the house. I know a little bit about everything and love to learn as much as i can if I don't know. I currently am unemployed trying to decide which direction to go in .... further education around animals or entry level jobs that mostly deal with sick animals that dont pay that great. I haven't been in the "work force" for a while as I was a mom and aunty first. Now i have time and freedom and no animals to love lol. So i will take as much as i can get of my furry four legged friends. I also love exercise that doesn't feel like exercise ... Walking, playing, swimming or running in a park. I am moving at the end of April although not far from where i am now. I will have a yard and a safe, comfortable calm space for any pets that need one. Or i like new environments and exploring or if your pet feels more comfortable in their space Or you just need peace of mind that your property and home are looked after, I am respectful mindful and love tomato plants! lol as well as whatever else might be growing

We had an amazing experience with her! She went above and beyond in every way and gave us complete peace of mind while caring for our dog. She was reliable, kind, communicative, and genuinely cared about making sure everything was taken care of. It’s clear she loves animals and treats them like her own. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring Rover sitter. Thank you for everything!

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.

After meeting a few dog walkers during my summer stays in Kelowna, I decided to give Fenrir a try. I'm glad I did. Fenrir has been one of the best dog walkers I've ever had. With a very high level of knowledge, passion and care for dogs, Fen truly stands out and my dog loves Fen. Reliability and professionalism are also clear strengths, with consistent punctuality and commitment to every scheduled walk. Most importantly, I feel peace of mind knowing my dog is in capable, responsible hands.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Kelowna on Rover is $24.42 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

There are 453 sitters on Rover for Dog Sitting in Kelowna. About 85% of Kelowna sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

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.

Rover makes it easy to find sitters who are available during your working hours. To find sitters who fit your schedule, select which days of the week and the time slots you'd like a sitter to visit. The search results will populate sitters whose calendars match your needs. You can also search for sitters by location, whether that’s a sitter near your office for day care drop-off or a sitter close to your home. Once you've found a sitter who you like, message them directly to schedule a Meet & Greet.

Tip: Doggy day care is another option for pet supervision while you're at work. Visit our doggy day care page for more information.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or travelling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer poop breaks during a Kelowna stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover based on what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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 Kelowna 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.

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.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

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.
