“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!”
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.
“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!”
“Sandra's flexibility meant I had care when our usual sitter was away. She communicated often and updated me regularly when Walnut was not feeling well. Appreciate your help!”
“Andrew and Ada took great care of my senior dog during a doggy care session. They were excellent at communication and provided an update for how my dog was doing during his stay with them. I could tell that my dog had a great time under their care and would fully recommend Andrew and Ada to anyone looking for services on Rover.”
“Another great experience with Andrea and Sergio! ❤️ Olive stayed with them for about 6 hours and had such a good time. They were both very caring and attentive, and I felt completely comfortable knowing she was being looked after. Olive came home happy and relaxed, which is always the best sign! 🐶💕 We really appreciate how well they take care of her and will definitely continue bringing Olive to them. Highly recommend Andrea and Sergio!”
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.
“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!”
“Simply the best. Hazelnut absolutely loves hanging out with Natz and Ignacio. She attends daycare lots and has boarded with them. We get updates throughout the day and our pup is always smiling and playing with other dogs. We cannot recommend them more.”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was a kid - big ones and small ones. In fact, I like them so much, that I made it my job. I have a Pomeranian girl myself and she is joy of my life. I like taking pups on long walks and spoil them with snacks. I used to shelter dogs when I lived in Vietnam Me and my husband are usually home, at least one of us. So it’s easy for us to take care of pets and take them out on walks. I take pets for walks, I give them belly rubs, snacks and play with them. They also can play with my dog. I feed them according to owner's preferences.
About: I have hands on experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes and personalities. I provide a safe, comfortable and loving environment where every dog is treated like part of the family. I understand each pet has their own routine and needs, so I always follow feeding schedules, walks, potty routines, medications and any special instructions provided. I’m home every day so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m able to provide plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, playtime, walks and companionship throughtout the day, making sure your pet is comfortable and never feels alone. I provide a safe,clean,and comfortable home environment with close supervision. We have a fenced backyard with plently of space for the pup to run around in between potty breaks.
About: I provide calm, reliable care for dogs of different ages and personalities. I’m attentive to routines, exercise needs, feeding schedules, and behavior cues, and I take extra care with senior dogs who need patience, consistency, and a gentle approach to feel safe and comfortable. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, as I’m pretty free every day. This allows me to be flexible with scheduling, provide consistent attention, and adjust my time around each dog’s needs for walks, feeding, play, and companionship. I provide care exclusively in my clients’ homes. I follow each pet’s established routine to reduce stress, ensure doors and gates are secured, use leashes at all times during walks, and closely monitor behavior and health. I respect the home environment, maintain cleanliness, and provide regular updates so owners feel confident their pets are safe and well cared for.
“Our dog Schatzi has such a good time with Viktoriia and Henry. She pulls me to get there faster when she sees where she is going. They send so many cute photos and videos and spoil her!”
“Our first time leaving Jasper with Yvonne and Stephanie. We did a quick meet and greet, letting them know that Jasper could be quite anxious (he has separation anxiety) and took time to get use to new people. Plus he could be quite vocal and alert towards other dogs and sounds. Both of them weren't fazed by his quirks :). During this first stay, we received regular updates with his photos/video clips. These really put our minds at ease. We look forward to having Jasper stayed with them again.”
“Really great experience with Avinash. Wolfy is super easy going and friendly, but as a border collie, he needs more physical activity than the average dog. Because of that, I’m pretty particular about who watches him and look for people who truly understand the needs of high-energy breeds. Wolfy came home calm and content. As his owner, I know when his needs have been met, and they definitely were. Avinash’s partner was very friendly, and I felt confident that Wolfy was in good hands. I’d happily book again and would recommend them to anyone looking for capable, well-rounded care for their dog, regardless of breed or energy level.”
About: ❥ We’re Tianna and Tyler, a loving couple from Richmond. We’re the kind of people who get ridiculously excited when a pet wants to play or decides it’s cuddle time 🐶 ❥ Animals have always been a huge part of our lives, and we’re happiest when we’re around them! Tianna grew up surrounded by dogs and has continued caring for friends’ pups as an adult, while Tyler was a proud cat daddy to his own kitty for over 17 years. ❥ Together we have hands-on experience with both dogs and cats, from everyday feeding + walks to keeping them entertained or just giving them company. We bring a very attentive and genuinely enthusiastic approach to pet care. We’re also happy to reinforce basic training, such as simple commands & habits already introduced by their owners. ❥ We absolutely adore the fun energy of playful youngsters just as much as the companionship of affectionate cuddle bugs, gentle seniors, and shy sweethearts! Getting to know each pet’s personality and discovering what makes them happy is one of our favourite parts of caring for them. We’re especially patient with those who need extra time to warm up, giving them the space to build trust naturally. ❥ We take the time to learn each pet’s routine and individual needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and at home with us. More than anything, we want every furry guest to feel like a cherished member of the family. Sharing those sweet everyday moments is what makes pet sitting so special to us! 🐾 ❥ We love welcoming furry companions into our everyday lives and making room in our days for their care! Tianna works from home when her schedule allows, and we share responsibilities so our little friends can enjoy plenty of attention and loving company. ❥ We know how reassuring a familiar routine can be when pets are spending time with someone new. Learning about their usual feeding times and favourite activities helps us plan their care around the rhythm they're used to! ❥ Our schedules are fairly flexible depending on our commitments, although pets may occasionally be on their own for around 1–3 hours when we're both out. We're always happy to chat about your pet's needs beforehand so we can make sure the arrangement feels right for everyone ❣️ ❥ Our pet-friendly Richmond apartment has no resident pets, and we primarily board cats and smaller dogs. Before confirming a stay, we like to make sure our space is a good fit for each furry guest. ❥ We’re happy to accommodate familiar beds or crates & discuss their usual sleeping arrangements beforehand. We only welcome up to two pets from the same household at a time, so your little ones won’t be sharing their stay with animals from another family. ❥ When caring for pets in their own homes, we treat your space with the same respect we’d want for ours. We carefully follow your household instructions and pay attention to doors + exits whenever we arrive or leave. If anything unexpected comes up, we’ll communicate promptly and keep you informed about your little one 💓
About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs for over 20 years. I also spent 8 months at a rescue dog and cat café, caring for and fostering rescue dogs with different personalities and needs. I’m patient, attentive, and always make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved.🐾 I'm a full-time student and only need to go to school on 2 days (Tue & Thu). And I live in River District, which has a lot of outdoor space for dogs to have fun! I make sure every pup gets at least two walks a day, along with plenty of playtime and attention to keep them happy, active, and relaxed. At my home, they’re free to make themselves comfortable, whether they want to sleep on the sofa, curl up on the bed, or simply find their own cozy spot.

Help your dog become familiar with the day-care environment before their first full day.

This can make the environment feel more familiar and help you and the sitter confirm that the setup is right for your dog.
Pack anything you and the sitter have agreed your dog will need, such as:

- Their collar or harness and other walking equipment
- Familiar comfort items, such as a blanket or favourite toy

If your dog is shy, nervous, or needs more time to adjust to unfamiliar places, ask whether a shorter introductory stay is possible before their first full day.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine and some may offer flexible activities suited for your dog. 94% of sitters in your city can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays.
These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
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.

Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our .
