“Kristin was great! She updated me everyday with photos and how our dog was doing, I highly recommend her! Great communication and fast responses, and very flexible on pick up times. We really appreciate her.”

“Carina is beyond amazing with Fergus, and I wish I could give her more than 5 stars! Fergus feels comfortable and at home with her. She sends updates, pictures and videos of their daily excursions and fun they have together. She is beyond amazing, and truly loves and cares for my pups”

“Ginette Was fantastic! Very understanding to my little girl and did the most wonderful job at making Ava feel so very welcome in her home! 100% recommended and 100% will book again!!!”

“Exceptional care yet again from Denise! My pup loves being at her place. Lots of exercise and tender loving care. Looking forward to the next visit! Thanks, Denise.”

“Carolyn is awesome! She had Jade for 2 nights and took very good care of her. Jade felt at ease and comfortable in her home the moment I dropped her off. Great communication the entire time. Would definitely recommend !”

“Sarah was awesome- blue heelers are a niche breed, so hard to find someone that not only welcomed Tilly into her home, but also encouraged us to bring her back. Sarah sent a couple update texts which were all positive, and most importantly dealt with Tillys leg injury while there. Well for sure bring her back when in Red Deer again!! Much love Sarah and family, Regards, the McCarthys !!”

“Winnie had a fabulous time as always with Becky. She is always so excited to spend time with them. Becky provided daily updates with photos and videos. I am always relieved when Becky is able to look after Winnie when I am away as I know she will be well looked after!”

About: I have experience with many dogs over the years from friends and family. I am retired so home most of the time to give your dog all the care they deserve. I love walking and hanging around the house and the backyard. Your dog would fit right in and I can adapt to whatever routine they have. I have a fenced yard and big house for your dog to enjoy. I live in a great area for walking dogs and will give them tons of care.
About: I have been a dog owner for over 20 years. I recently had to let my ole girl pass over the rainbow, such an heartbreaking decision to make. She was happy as the only dog if the house and I had a desire for more happy tails! So I decided to start walking dogs and doing pet visits so that I could fulfill my need for more waggy tails! I do work a local job that runs Monday -Friday, but am done by 3:15. I schedule my walks for 3:15 and after.I do get a 30 min lunch break that I can do washroom breaks for pets if needed. Walks are 30-45 mins. I do have weekends and evenings off, this is where I make the time for pups/cats. I do not tend to bring other dogs to my home, I have done so on occasion but only after my dog has had a chance to meet our new furry visitor. I do dog walks, visits and out door adventures for your pup. I even take some of my 4 legged friends to the back country roads, for that nice open free run!
About: I have experience with dogs and animals of all kinds and sizes. Here is a list for your reference. 12 year old Rottweiler. 2 year old black lab. 9 year old chihuahua. 5-10 year old Jack Russell. 5 year old Husky. 8 year old Saint Bernard. Fostered two 8 week old labs for saving grace. As well as grew up with yellow and golden labs from puppy till they passed 😢 Both my neighbours have dogs on each side of the fence and for that reason I am asking for well behaved animals as I don’t want to upset my neighbour's lives. I am an animal lover and enjoy playing catch as well as going for walks. I have one animal in my home, his name is tink and he is a 4 year old male neutered cat. I work part time and am a single mom that is usually available on short notice, as long as i do not have a prior commitment. We are a family of 3, myself and my two sons, ages 9 and 10. We have a small fenced yard and live in a townhouse complex.
“My dog was at Sarah's once for daycare and when we left him for boarding he was super excited to go there. Sarah sent regular updates and left me at ease, knowing he was being well cared for.”

“Skye always has the best time when she stays with Laura and John! We always know we are leaving our girl in the best care. They have a beautiful property and two lovely golden retrievers. Skye always returns to us happy and exhausted from all of the fun and excitement. Highly recommend!”

“I highly recommend Janelle! I went away overnight and leaving my fur baby with her made it completely stress and worry free! My dog has a little bit of health issues and she was so understanding and tended to my dog perfectly! Janelle sent lots of updates and photos, it was great!”

“Shelley and her fam were amazing with my guy! He was treated like part of the fam and was comfortable right away! I did not have any anxiety leaving my dog with her! Her home is very dog friendly and my guy had the best time of his life he played so hard and was pooped the whole day once he was home ! Can’t recommend her enough 🤍”

“Jennifer was absolutely great with my little guy. Constantly kept me updated and sent pictures. Was very nice to talk to and gave Crosby tons of attention. I highly recommend her if your looking for a sitter for your best friend.”

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Lacombe home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favourite hang-out spots in your Lacombe
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
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.
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.
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 .
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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.
