“Connie was a kind, responsive, and dutiful dog sitter for Fozzie. She was really flexible with drop off and pick up times which is super helpful for my schedule and type of work. She also provided me with photo and message updates throughout the day. It was great to see that Fozzie settled in so nicely with their family including their dog Alpha and their two kiddos. Fozzie struggles with separation anxiety and has leash reactivity with other dogs so he can sometimes be a bit of a handful but Connie demonstrated familiarity and confidence around dealing with these challenges, which helped me have confidence too. Connie also goes above and beyond by providing homemade healthy treats to doggos like steamed pumpkin. Would highly recommend but Fozzie calls dibs! 🥰”
“We had a long day away from home and Poppy went to stay with Julia and her family for the day. She had another busy and happy day with everyone. Thank-you again, Julia!”
“At first we were a little worried since this is my first time leaving our dogs with day care. They loved it! Sandra took good care of my dogs while we were away. She always updated me by sending messages and photos so I know they are in good hands. Thanks!”
About: I hade previous experience walking dogs before, all sizes. I’ve volunteered in animal shelters. VTA certificate, trained and my friends and family always refer to me to take care of their pets knowing I would be happy to do it. I currently have open availability. Mornings and mid-afternoon is the best time for me to give service. Sunday's is my day off, but for the rest of the week you can count on me. I live in a pet friendly neighborhood with a lots of free space around to take walks, a beach close to me and a space for crate.
“Jenney was thoughtful and attentive, and followed all the intricate instructions for a young puppy. My little guy loves her and almost didn't want to leave! 10/10 would book again. I know who to go to when I need someone to watch my little Obi next time!”
“Ashley and Kelvin are excellent taking caring of Sunia! She enjoyed her time with them and I received frequent photo updates. I will most definitely have them doggy sit for me again.”
About: I spent 15 wonderful years raising my own dog, which taught me just how much trust it takes to leave your pup with someone new. I take care of every dog with the same patience, attention, and calm presence as I’d want my dog to be cared with. Your dog will feel safe, comfortable, well cared for. I’m currently working part-time, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups ! I’m available for boarding on weekends and weekdays . I make sure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and part of the family while they’re with me. I try to maintain their regular routine, give them lots of calm attention, gentle care, and a peaceful space to relax.
“Sara is a Diamond in the Rough on Rover. Blessed to have found Sara available for the time we are in Vancouver visiting. She brought peace of mind and reassurance with her confidence and calmness. She knows her animals and loves furry friends. She took our little Ghost puppy for the day and was able to give our puppy a wonderful experience socializing with other dogs and enrichment. Thankful thankful thankful. Definitely recommend Sara's service.”
“James was great! We had to book last minute and he was happy to help. Xhiggy came back exhausted. His backyard is great and he also took X for a beach walk. Very attentive for our Girl. Thank you James.”
About: What sets me apart is my ability to understand and adapt to each pet’s unique personality and needs. Whether it’s a high-energy dog who needs mental stimulation or a shy cat who needs space, I tailor my approach to make every animal feel safe, respected, and happy. I also send regular updates with photos and maintain great communications with pet owners. I’m currently working fully remotely at home so my schedule is fairly flexible with pets sitting. Monday to Friday I can walk pets 3 times a day, and weekends are usually more flexible. I care for pets in a warm, homey environment located in a dog-friendly neighborhood by the lake. Dogs in my care enjoy regular walks with beautiful lake views, safe outdoor play, and plenty of one-on-one attention. My community is very pet-friendly, which means your dog will feel welcome and at ease. I stick to their usual routine as closely as possible—whether that’s meal times, play sessions, or medication. Whether your pup is active or more laid-back, they’ll have a relaxing, enriching stay with lots of love and supervision.
“Howie had a fun day with Natz & Ignacio! I was provided with pictures of Howie playing with other dogs throughout the day and they even ended the day with a fun Valentine’s Day photo shoot. Thanks for having him - would come again!”

About: I grew up surrounded by both dogs and cats, so caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. From an early age, I learned to appreciate their individual personalities, respect their boundaries, and recognize when they need attention, space, exercise, or simply some quiet time. While living in South Korea, I volunteered extensively with Dasom Rescue( in Seoul, Non-Profit Organization), caring for rescued dogs from a wide range of backgrounds and with many different personalities. I also volunteered as a flight companion volunteer, helping approximately 20 rescued dogs travel from South Korea to their new families in the United States and Canada. Today, I have two dogs of my own, rescued dog from Kill Shelter in Korea, whom I truly consider part of my family. I’m attentive to their daily routines, including walks, feeding, dental care, brushing, and supplements. As a dog mom myself, I know how hard it can be to trust someone else with your babies. Our dogs are family, and choosing the right person to care for them isn’t something we take lightly. That’s why I want you to feel comfortable knowing that your dog will be treated with the same care, attention, and love that I would want for my own. ✔️ I’m home full-time, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I don’t have another job that takes me away from home. which means I can spend plenty of time with the dogs in my care and give them lots of attention throughout the day. ✔️ I also live right next to a beautiful park, so it’s easy to take dogs out for regular walks, fresh air, and potty breaks. Dogs are always kept safely leashed and supervised while we’re outside. 🐾. I can also adjust my routine to match your dog’s usual schedule as closely as possible, so they can feel comfortable and at home during their stay. 🐾❤️ ✔️I only care for one dog at a time, or a maximum of two, so , I can give each dog plenty of individual attention. ✔️ your dog does not have to share their space with a resident dog. If your dog prefers to be alone, my two dogs will stay with their dad at another house, so I can provide your dog with a peaceful, comfortable, and fully separate home environment during their stay. I’m especially careful to always know where the dogs are and to maintain a safe environment. I make sure there’s nothing within reach that they could accidentally eat or get into, and I always make sure their harnesses and leashes are secure. ✔️As a dog owner, I understand how important cleanliness is to your pet’s health and comfort. I maintain a clean, fresh, and welcoming environment, with sanitized floors, fresh bedding, and a comfortable space for every dog in my care. ✔️Dogs are always leashed and supervised outside, even for quick potty breaks. Our home is quiet and surrounded by nature, and I can provide a separate space for dogs who prefer some quiet time or need to be on their own. I’ll carefully follow your dog’s usual routine and any special instructions you provide to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re in my care. 🐾

Minjeong was so great with our dog and very accommodating. My dog's separation anxiety has returned and so he's been a lot more nervous about things lately, and has always been nervous around new people. She went at the pace he was comfortable and he warmed up to her quickly. We will definitly book with Minjeong again. Thank you!

Tip: Upload this information directly through the Rover app before drop-off. The more context you provide, the better your sitter can tailor the day to your dog.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Ladner commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
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.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in BC ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines such as the DHPP or DA2PP, Rabies, and Bordetella.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 81% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 99% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the 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.
