Dog Sitting Ladner

About: Iv been taking care of animals for as long as i can remember! I grew up with cats, took care of friends/ family dogs and much more! I love all types of animals! Im willing to do a free meet a greet before taking care and meeting your fur babies ! I am currently a University student looking for a fun and loving job! I am available on Friday - Monday any time you need me! I am also available during the weekdays only after 5pm since I’ll be in school. We have 3 other friendly cats willing to play and make your fur baby feel at home! We also have lots of toys and big front and backyard for them to play! I prioritize pet safety by making sure to keep a close eye and supervise to make sure everything is going well for indoor and outdoor active playtime while I follow specific instructions regarding feeding, medicine, and crate routines carefully, creating a trustworthy, stress free environment where your fur baby is completely safe and comfortable.

“Our dog was well cared for, given time and attention, food and water. We absolutely would recommend Narjis with no hesitation - she has excellent communication and our dog thrives under her care.”

About: I am an 30 year old care aid who is an animal lover, I have two cats and a bearded dragon of my own. I have past experience pet sitting for neighbors, friends/family and here on Rover for the last 7+ years. I’ve walked dogs, fed and bathed them, provided mental stimulation and a safe environment for your pets. I’ve had experience in administration of medication to cats and dogs. I have some experience with exotic pets ( ie reptiles and birds). I do have a car so transportation is possible. Looking forward to connecting with you. At the moment I work a very flexible schedule as I am trying to gain more clients for my pet care service. I try and keep my schedule clear in the morning and evenings 7am-10am and 5pm-10pm, and overnight. As I gain more clients this will change to accommodate for better hours. During walks I like to check in with photos to update clients, keep track of bowel movements and engage in play. For in home service I provide walks, play, medication administration, frequent updates, light cleaning, feeding and bathing if needed.

“Halyna and Ugurcan were beyond amazing! I 100% recommend them to any anxious and attached pet parents looking for responsible, stable, calm, capable caretakers! I had a previously arranged sitter drop out three days before a two-week international vacation and I was super stressed. Halyna responded to my initial message immediately and quickly arranged a meeting for that same day. Both Halyna and Ugurcan came over and were so, so, so sweet! They listened to all the instructions and accepted the booking on the spot. One of my cats has asthma that requires an inhaler and the other is very anxious so I was worried about the introduction of strangers. Ugurcan being a vet was the final selling point! During my vacation they were incredibly responsive and shared regular updates in-app and over text with me, including photos and videos. There were 0 issues and I came back to two very happy, content, well-cared-for cats, who even became friendly to Halyna and Ugurcan towards the end despite being very nervous around people. I cannot thank Halyna and Ugurcan enough for taking this booking last minute and being so great. I will definitely turn to them as my regular sitters in the future :)”

About: I am a former dog mom who raised a female Shih Tzu from a puppy, and I firmly believe that love and intentional care help animals live longer, healthier lives. Her name was Java and she lived past 15 years and remained active well into her senior years. Some of my most cherished memories with her included dog walking, baths, car rides, bonding time, and trips to the park. I didn’t treat her as just a dog—I treated her as family because I truly loved her. In addition to my own dog, I have cared for other family dogs, nurturing them from puppyhood to adulthood with the same level of care and dedication. I have experience supporting dogs with anxiety and shyness, as my own dog experienced this and overcame it through building trust, providing positive reinforcement, playtime, and bonding activities that I provided. I love nature and adventurous activities, which allows me to actively engage and enrich the lives of furry friends. As a nurse, I am naturally empathetic, compassionate, and committed to providing loving and patient care. I live by the principle of not doing harm but always doing good—this extends not only to humans but also to every dog I care for. I aim to provide services that are tailored to furry friends, because every furry friend is unique and has different needs. I am passionate about making a positive impact in the lives of furry friends because even though they cannot speak, they truly understand and feel when they are loved. My goal is not only to provide services but also to make a lasting, meaningful impact in the life of every furry friend I care for! Each service is personalized with unique care, some services include, Puppy Training 🐶 Experience with dogs at all life stages—from puppy to senior 🐶🐕 Experience caring for sick dogs🌡 and administering oral medications Enriching activities such as dog walks and playtime⛱️🏕🐩🐕🐶 Personalized services including progress reports📋 seasonal health brochures, meeting hygienic needs, and so much more🥰 I am a nurse currently in graduate school, which means I have flexible weekly hours and can provide dog services on a schedule that works well for you. I also offer weekend boarding with advance booking. I can also accommodate last‑minute bookings as well. I provide safe, personalized care in your home, following your preferences to ensure your pet is protected and your home is secure. You can count on me to treat your pet with love!

About: I've been around animals my whole life. I grew up with Labrador retrievers, cats and other small animals. Growing up I worked in a pet hospital, which gave me experience being around animals with different personalities, temperaments and care needs. I have also worked at the horse stables caring for horses and have volunteered at the BCSPCA. I'm a life-long animal lover and currently have a Great Dane x Mastiff mix of my own. My dog can be reactive so I have experience navigating walks calmly, recognizing triggers, reading body language, creating distance when needed and being aware of our surroundings. I understand every dog has their own personality and comfort level. I'm patient with dogs who are nervous, shy, excitable or need a little extra space, and I'm happy to follow the routines, commands and walking techniques that work best for your dog. I genuinely enjoy walking and spending time with dogs and my goal is to make their time with me relaxed, safe and fun! Whether your dog wants a big adventure, a leisurely sniffari or simply some company and snuggles, I'm happy to adapt to what makes them happiest. I'll care for your pet with the same patience and affection I give my own big guy. I work remotely, which gives me plenty of flexibility in my schedule to accommodate walks, drop-ins and house sitting. I wanted to join Rover as a way to spend more time with animals, get outside and be more active while doing something I genuinely enjoy! Due to my own dog being dog selective, I am not currently offering pet care in my home. I’m happy to provide walks, visits and house sitting in your pet’s own home, where they can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I’ll follow your pet’s usual routine, feeding schedule, walking guidelines and house rules as closely as possible. I will always prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort and individual needs. I will also be respectful of your home and treat both your pet and your space with care.

About: I have more than 10 years experience in animal husbandry. I have always been surrounded with animals since I was a child. I am a sensitive and calm person. I am flexible and trustworthy. Compassionate for people and animals. I have a genuine love for animals, I tend to connect with them, specially with older dogs. I am reliable and responsible individual. I am detail oriented so I just don't do the necessary job but i go for that extra mile. I have a closed yard and a park by my side for your dog to play in with me and the squirrels. Your dog with me is in great hands. It will be my pleasure to take care of your dog. I speak english, spanish and hebrew (in case you want me to talk to your dog in one of those languages :)).

About: I’ve had the opportunity to care for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, and I truly enjoy getting to know what makes each dog unique. My experience includes puppies, senior dogs, reactive dogs, anxious and fearful dogs, high-energy breeds, and dogs who simply need a little extra patience and understanding. I currently work as a professional dog walker, where I safely manage both private and group walks while focusing on positive experiences, enrichment, and each dog’s individual needs. I’m experienced in reading canine body language, managing dog-to-dog interactions, and adapting walks based on a dog’s comfort level, energy, and temperament. Whether your dog loves adventure, prefers a slower-paced stroll, or needs a calm and consistent routine while you’re away, my goal is to provide thoughtful, reliable care that helps them feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I treat every dog as if they were my own and always prioritize their safety, comfort, and wellbeing. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. I currently work as a professional dog walker and have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive, reliable care throughout the day. Whether it’s walks, drop-in visits, or overnight stays, I enjoy spending my time with animals and make it a priority to ensure every pet gets plenty of exercise, enrichment, companionship, and love. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, my goal is to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, preferences, and any special care instructions so they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. In my home, pets have a calm, pet-friendly environment with plenty of space to relax. We also have a secure balcony for fresh air (always supervised) and are within walking distance of beautiful trails, parks, and an off-leash area for dogs who enjoy off-leash adventures and have reliable recall. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their established routine and provide plenty of companionship, exercise, enrichment, playtime, and affection while keeping their home clean and secure. I always prioritize safety, positive experiences, and regular communication, including photo updates so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind.

“Kelsi was very nice, on time and the dogs loved her. Definitely will be booking again!”

About: Dogs have always been a part of my life. From fostering dogs in need, raising and training my own puppies to rescuing and adopting companions while providing patience, calming reassurance and dependable care in a peaceful and loving home. I am currently working part time, and pet care is already part of my lifestyle. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and making sure they receive the care, exercise and companionship they deserve. I strongly believe that all animals should be cared for both physically and emotionally at home. What I do to meet their needs in my home: * Providing fresh water at all times and making sure they are fed healthy meals that coincide with weight, age, and food intolerances. * Encourage 15 minute training sessions (involves delicious treats) 1-2x a day for mental stimulation and consistency. * Puppy proofed. I have created a safe space where dogs are free to roam. No access to toxic plants, sniffing out cleaning products, chewing on electrical cords, and/or small objects they could swallow. * Big, comfy beds and/or couches for a place to rest, where they can feel secure. * Maintaining a routine for meals, playtime, walks, potty breaks, and bedtime. Dogs thrive on routine! * Toys, toys toys! Puzzle feeders, sniffing games, and interactive play. * Groom regularly by brushing their coat, trimming nails, cleaning ears when needed, and brushing their teeth. * Using positive reinforcement when redirecting and correcting. I reward good behaviour with yummy treats, praise, belly rubs and/or play time instead of punishing mistakes. * Socialize appropriately with people, other dogs, and new environments to build confidence and good manners. * Monitor their health for changes in appetite, energy, drinking, bathroom habits, and/or behaviour. * Give them attention and affection. Dogs are social animals and need companionship, interaction, and love to thrive. * Respect their individual needs. Every dog has a unique personality, energy level, and comfort zone. I have a fenced yard and a dog park across from my house. Your dog will always have a furry friend to play with or if they prefer alone time, that’s fine too :) I also make my own dog and bake homemade dogs treats as well. So, if your pup is on a strict diet or is on medication- I’m no stranger to feeding them healthy and nutritious meals and/or administering their medications.

About: Animals have always been a central part of my life. Growing up on a farm, I developed a deep understanding of the care, responsibility, and patience required to look after a wide variety of animals. Throughout my childhood, I was surrounded by dogs and cats, giving me hands-on experience with their unique personalities, needs, and behaviours. Today, I continue that lifelong commitment as the owner of a five-year-old medium-sized dog. My lifelong experience has given me a genuine appreciation for animal welfare, strong observational skills, and the ability to build trust with pets of different temperaments. This personal connection allows me to provide compassionate, attentive care while understanding that every animal deserves to be treated with patience, respect, and kindness. Pet care fits easily into my routine because I'm currently taking some time off work and have a very open schedule. I'm available on both weekdays and weekends and can accommodate a variety of pet care needs. Whether you're looking for short-term care, long-term care, or flexible scheduling, I'm happy to provide reliable, attentive care that works around your pet's routine. I provide care for pets in their own home, where they can stay comfortable and maintain their regular routine. I carefully follow all instructions you leave regarding feeding, exercise, medications, and any special needs to ensure your pet receives the best possible care. I treat every pet as if they were my own, giving them plenty of love, attention, patience, and companionship while you're away, so you can have peace of mind knowing they're in caring hands.

About: I’ve been a dog mom for 13 years to my old pup, whom I raised from puppyhood to her senior years. Caring for her has given me hands-on experience with everything from potty training and socialization to senior support and medication routines. Over time, I’ve also cared for friends’ dogs while they travel, including small breeds, energetic young dogs, and older pups who need extra patience and gentle handling. I understand that every dog has a different personality, routine, and comfort level — and I adapt to that. What sets me apart is attentiveness. I pay close attention to body language, appetite, energy levels, and subtle behavioral changes. Your dog won’t just be supervised — they’ll be cared for thoughtfully. I provide regular updates with photos and videos so you always feel connected and reassured while you’re away. My goal is simple: a safe, calm environment where your dog feels comfortable, respected, and loved. I work from home full-time, so pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I’m home throughout the day, which allows me to provide constant supervision, regular potty breaks, walks, and lots of affection. Your dog will not be left alone for long periods. I’m able to give consistent attention, companionship, and monitoring to make sure they feel safe and comfortable. Because I’m home-based, your pet won’t just be “checked on” — they’ll truly have someone present with them throughout the day. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. I maintain a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment where dogs can relax and feel secure. In my home, I remove any small or unsafe objects from reachable areas and ensure doors and windows are always secured. I supervise interactions closely and never leave dogs unattended in situations that could feel overwhelming or unsafe. I follow each pet’s routine carefully — including feeding schedules, walk preferences, crate training (if applicable), and any special instructions provided by the owner. I also monitor behavior, appetite, and energy levels throughout their stay. If caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space completely and maintain the same safety standards, cleanliness, and structure the dog is used to. My goal is to keep everything consistent so your pet feels comfortable and stress-free. I provide regular updates with photos and messages so you always know how your pet is doing.

“Deb was the best cat sitter that we have ever had! She had our two shy cats in her lap within the first day, and they were so comfortable with her…. They barely noticed we were away! She easily administered medication to one of our cats, and we are so happy that we found her! Communication has been easy and comfortable, and she sent us photos and a report during and after every visit. If you are looking for a reliable, safe and loving pet care, look no further than Deb. She is absolutely wonderful!!”

“I booked my first drop in visit with Chris. He came on time and did all the tasks I had requested: scoop the litter and vacuum the litter off the floor. On top of that he also changed my cats’ water and sent pics of them. I will be booking with him again.”

About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I had a German Shepherd who I raised from just 2 months old until he was 10. I also cared for another German Shepherd and a Belgian Shepherd from around 6 months old until they were 3. They were a huge part of my life, and I spent countless hours with them at my family’s country house—feeding them, walking them, playing with them, and simply keeping them company. Leaving my home country was especially difficult because it meant leaving them behind, and I still miss them very much. Those experiences are a big part of why I genuinely enjoy caring for dogs. I know how much they mean to their families, and I treat every dog I care for with the same patience, attention, and affection I would want for my own. I’ll be doing Rover together with my girlfriend, so your dog will have two people giving them plenty of care, attention, and company. We both love animals and enjoy spending time with them, whether that means going for walks, playing, exploring, or simply relaxing together. I believe the best pet care is when your pet barely notices you’re gone. We’ll do our best to keep their usual routine, whether that means their normal walk, dinner right on time, playing when they’re energetic, or simply hanging out when they want some company. Every pet is different, and we’re happy to let them set the pace and make themselves comfortable. Flexible enough to work around your pet’s routine, because it’s easier to care for an animal when you’re not trying to convince them to adapt to yours. I have a spacious, comfortable home with a backyard where pets can relax and play. I’ll follow their usual routine, including walks, meals, playtime, and plenty of attention, so they feel comfortable and at home.

About: I’ve taken care of multiple breeds of dogs throughout the years, including my own two puppies. I’m comfortable with small breeds and large, aswell as everything in between! 🐾 I work a part time job a few days a week at a local daycare. I’m around during the week & weekends with lots of down time, therefore your pets will always be a top priority. If you would like more info about what my standard week may look like please message me :) My main goal is to prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being at all times. I’m experienced with both on and off leash activity as well as any size and breed of dog. I have great training experience of my own, learned from both of my current pups. They came from rescues and required extensive work with behaviour and socialization.

About: I’ve taken taken care of all my friends kids/pets over the years but have never had my own. Thats why I’m known as the fun uncle :) Im an early riser and am away at work Monday to Friday for up to 8.5 hours. I can take your pup out for runs & walks early mornings for up to 45min and up to 2 hours in the afternoon/evenings. I’m free most weekends and able to do pick up/drop offs depending on the location. I’d care for your pet as if they were my own. My car is very dog friendly and am able to take them on most errands and adventures. Walks depending on the pet could range from runs to burn off energy to chill walks with plenty of stops to sniff all the smells/roses.

About: I’m a dedicated dog owner with hands-on experience, especially with small breeds, so I understand how to keep dogs calm, safe, and comfortable. I’m patient and consistent with puppies—helping reinforce potty training, crate routines, leash manners, and basic commands using positive guidance. For senior dogs, I provide gentle, slower-paced care with close attention to comfort, mobility, and routine. I treat every dog like my own and keep you updated with regular messages and photos, so you always know your dog is happy and in good hands. I am a full time student at UBC and currently on break hence I have lots of free time to hangout and take care of all pups. n my home, I provide a calm, clean, and safe environment with consistent routines for walks, feeding, and rest. I adjust care based on each dog’s needs so they feel comfortable and secure. In my client’s home, I follow your dog’s usual routine as closely as possible and carefully follow all instructions to keep things familiar and stress-free. In both cases, I’m patient, attentive, and treat every dog like my own.
