“I could not have asked for a better dog-sitter for my sweet Ellie. Tyler was very communicative and trustworthy from the very beginning, and bonded with Ellie right away. He sent updates and photos very regularly, and was incredibly responsive to Ellie’s needs and personality. He even taught her a new trick! I had no doubt that she was happy and comfortable and very well cared for the entire time I was away. I will definitely be asking Tyler to dog-sit again !”
“Joanne watched our two golden retrievers (12 years and 7 months) for 10 days and took fabulous care of them. She was a pro with their feeding and medical needs and was very patient with a trouble making puppy that had some trouble sleeping at night. She kept in constant contact and sent pictures of their daily adventures. I appreciate all the love she gave our boys, they did not want to get in the van when we picked them up as they had so much fun. Highly recommended Joanne!”
“Danielle was a lifesaver taking in my newly adopted Nellie when family plans unexpectedly changed over the holidays. Although Nellie is nervous around most people at first, she warmed right up to Danielle and her pal Gibuu and settled in nicely for the few days we were gone. I appreciated Danielle’s experience and commitment to Nellie’s care and even sent me updates of their adventures! I would definitely recommend Danielle!”
“Jaydyn was awesome, so warm and friendly and did a great job of sending pics and updates. She was also very flexible and accommodating as we had some uncertainty in our drop off and pick up times. Our dog came back happy and healthy. Thanks so much Jaydyn! 😁”
“Our pups absolutely love their stays with Coraline and Valentin. They come back happy and well cared for each time. We feel completely comfortable leaving the pups with Coraline and Valentin because we know how much they care for them.”
“Five stars for Karin (and her family). They are a treasure and Watson enjoyed his stay with them. I felt comfortable leaving our 6 month old puppy with her as not only is she a kind, generous and caring person - BONUS here - Karin was a vet in her home country. It is a pleasure to recommend her and I am confident you’ll find the same great qualities in Karin as I did.”
“Tiffany was absolutely amazing! She accepted a rather long visit on very short notice and was so kind, understanding, and accommodating throughout the entire process. Finley had such a great time with her and came back happy and comfortable. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“Charlie clearly enjoyed his time with Kristine as he came home happy and relaxed. She was easy to communicate with, sent regular updates and photos, and was flexible around my unconfirmed pick up time due to ferry issues. I highly recommend Kristine if you live in the Cowichan Valley!”
“This was the first time I left my insecure little dog with a stranger. Her regular sitter was away so I entrusted her with Marcel and although I was apprehensive at first, I am so glad she got to experience a little “holiday” away from me. She played lots with their dog and went on daily walks (which I was also worried about because of her reactivity) but she apparently did well and is actually better now than she was before. I think it was a very positive experience for both me and my dog.”
“Linda has been responsive and gives extra attention to Walter! Her place is huge backyard and dedicated enclosed cage that even large dogs can comforatbly fit to sleep at night. I would definitely book her again on our next trip!”
“Ben had a great stay with Tiana! He loves it there and runs right to her when we arrive. Tiana is a great communicator. We love all the pics of Ben and seeing him play with all the other pups!”
“A big shout out to Sylvie-Ann and Stephane for the wonderful care of Huxley. Huxley has a few little issues and they made sure he was comfortable and happy. Their little Yorkshire Lilou (4lbs) and my 95lb Pitty cross enjoyed each other’s company. Lol. Thank you so much for taking care and hope to see you soon.”
About: ❇️ I pay close attention to animals in my care, I'm always looking out for their safety and well-being. I only host one or two dogs at a time so things stay calm and comfortable. This lets me focus on each dog and make sure they feel relaxed and cared for. My goal is simple: help your dog feel safe, happy, and at home — and give you complete confidence that they’re being well cared for. ❇️ Boarding - Bookings are available most weekends of the year from Friday evening to Sunday evening. ❇️ Dog walking - I'm available for dog walks most mornings and evenings throughout the year. ❇️ Day Care - I have daytime availability during July and August + winter/spring breaks + all stat/bank holidays. I work for the school district full time September-June. ❇️ I have a fully fenced yard, and space in my home for crates, bowls, and toys. Safety is important to me. If you have any concerns, or if your dog has special needs, please provide details prior to drop-off. I want to ensure your pet has a fun and happy stay.
“Dorothy was nothing short of amazing - definitely eased the stress of leaving our 16 month old pup for the first time knowing she was in good hands! From an initial meet and greet to receiving text and photo updates daily while we were away, she took considerate care of our girl while we were away. So nice to know that we now have a reliable and genuine caregiver in the future!”
“Highly recommend Karuna for all your pet sitting needs she treats your pet like her own and is very reliable and attentive! She always leaves a detailed update and photos so your trip remains stress free. I would definitely recommend her services! 11/10”
“Jenn and her husband were great. Our dog Monkey had a great time with them and Jenn sent us great pictures of Monkey doing all her wacky little things she does when she's having fun.”

Janice was wonderful with my small dog, Buko! I am nervous leaving him with dogsitters typically because he is an anxious and sensitive dog. Janice took great care of my pup and sharing lots of photos and videos of him during their adventures. She reassured me that Buko was doing well because a tired dog (returning from a long hike) is a well-behaved dog! Definitely recommend :)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Ladysmith on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Boarding 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

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.
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 pet, 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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
