“Reluctantly giving multiple 5 stars due to not wanting to lose Vaneessa. Couldn't ask for anyone better, above and beyond service, Zeke is a big fan. Punctual, reliable, flexible.”
“Barbara did a lovely job cat sitting for us! Our kitty warmed up to her quickly and was well taken care of while we were away for a few days. She sent us thorough reports of everything they did during her visit, and tons of photos. This is our first time using Rover so we were a bit hesitant but after our initial meeting we felt very comfortable and confident about leaving our kitty in her care and we are very impressed with the job she did. Would highly recommend Barbara!”
“Hope has a unique gift with animals where they feel relaxed with her. Our cat was instantly taken by her care and kindness to him. We are incredibly lucky to have Hope’s support to provide such good care to all our pets. 😻”
“Willow is one the best dog sitters I’ve had for drop ins with my 3 month old puppy. She’s patient and loves to play with her. She keeps me updated on how my puppy is doing well.”
“Jason was amazing to our dogs, we were so worried to go on vacations and leave our dogs behind but Jason was truly great. The dogs had the best time playing and going out with him, it was a fun time for them. He always updated us and we felt that they were really well taken care off. We will definitely rebook next time we are away”
About: I would be thrilled to take your dog for a solo adventure (if needed) or they can join the pack with me and my doggo, Zodiac! I have loved all animals ever since I was little, I’ve taken care of animals for around 20 years — from dogs and cats to rabbits and chinchillas (and more). I currently have a 10 year old husky mix, he’s my world and I’m so grateful I have the flexibility to be home with him most of the time! I wanted to extend that love and care to the furbabies around me so they can get a fun distraction while you’re at work. I’m comfortable giving medications to your animal if needed - I give my dog medication twice a day (oral; not suppository). I walk and dog sit my neighbours’ dogs when they need me to. I love all animals — your animals would be treated with the same love and kindness that my babies receive! I’m very happy to send you lots of photo updates!! I mostly work from home so my schedule is fairly open currently. I would love to help with entertaining your furbabies while you’re busy working. I know how hard it is to leave your annunaks alone while you’re out of the house, and want to help make life easier for you. will take lots of photos throughout the visit.. I understand how it feels if you feel weird about someone you don’t know to take your dog in your space, I’m here to make the process as smooth as possible — I’m a kind and caring 29 year old and respect personal space. . If I’m doing a check in at your place, I’m happy doing a quick tidy up, Just let me know!
“Lixia was a perfect sitter for my older cat Emily, she was attentive with the instructions I gave her on giving Emily her medication and followed through perfectly on feeding and giving Emily her medicine. I am so thankful to have booked lixia for my week away and wouldnt hesitate to book her again!”
“Dominique was incredible with my boy! She was great and flexible when my plans changed a little bit last minute and she’s doing so amazing with my puppy when I left her a lot of instructions 💗💗 My boy loves her and looks forward to seeing her every week!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs of all sizes and have years of hands-on experience caring for pets for friends and neighbors. I bring a calm, attentive energy to every visit and take pride in creating a safe, positive experience for each animal. Your pet’s comfort, routine, and happiness are always my top priorities. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to fit dog walks in throughout the day. I’m typically available on weekdays, with some evening and weekend availability as well. I do my best to accommodate your dog’s routine and keep things consistent for them. I care for every pet as if they were my own, always prioritizing their safety and comfort. I pay close attention to routines, feeding instructions, and behavior to ensure consistency and reduce stress. I’m mindful in clients’ homes, keeping everything clean, secure, and respectful while creating a calm, loving environment for each pet.
“First time leaving our cat alone. Jane did an excellent job of informing us of her visits, including pics. It was very reassuring and we knew he was well taken care of.”
About: I’ve cared for my sister’s dog for years, handling walks, feeding, and playtime. I’m great with friendly dogs and comfortable with puppies and seniors, always patient and attentive. Pet care fits well into my routine. I’m available most weekends and evenings, and I can also help some weekdays depending on the schedule. I’m flexible and reliable. Whether in my home or yours, I make sure pets feel safe, calm, and cared for. I follow routines, give attention, and always prioritize their comfort.
About: I grew up with a rescue dog and multiple cats, and I've been around animals my whole life. I currently live with and co-trained a high energy German Shepherd/Malinois cross, so I'm very comfortable with daily exercise routines and handled her recovery after major knee surgery. I've taken on the sole care of a senior cat whose owner had to unexpectedlyleave the province for a year, I frequently sit for my relatives' cats, and have stepped in to care for a neighbour's Chihuahua when they had a medical emergency. I like to meet animals where they are at. cuddling the ones who want attention and giving space to the ones who need it, while figuring out their individual personalities. I work 9-5 in town, have a car, so am open to drop ins around those hours and overnight stays. I also live in a house with a fenced backyard with my good friend who is home during the day and happy to help sitting if you are looking for more full-time boarding. Depending on the service, I keep things pretty adaptable. If they are staying at my place, I make sure they get plenty of time to decompress, utilize the fenced yard, and stick to a comfortable routine. If I'm staying at your house, I respect your space and your pet's normal habits. Because I pay close attention to animal body language, I'm quick to notice subtle signs if they are feeling stressed, anxious, or unwell, and I'll adjust accordingly.
About: I started my first animal care business at the tender age of 6, and have been caring for my own and others' animals ever since. I have experience with special needs and anxious pets, reptiles, rabbits, birds, even wild animals, as well as canines and felines. At home I just have Panda (my cat) and sometimes Thistle (my dog I co-parent). In the past have struck a cozy balance with the needs and desires of up to four animals (3 cats and a dog), and have met with success when introducing others into the mix. Panda and I are extensive travelers and have befriended many a furred friend on our adventures. I have also been walking dogs since I was a child and am very focused on making sure they have a thorough and enjoyable experience. I'm comfortable with dogs of any size, and can even probably walk your cat! (I take mine out regularly) In people's homes, I am very respectful of space and privacy and work to make my presence undetectable, except for the animal to whom I'm providing company to of course! I'm very good at following care instructions and am not afraid of light grooming, administering medications, etc. I spent some time volunteering with the SPCA doing feline socialization as well. I have dealt with special need purebreds, high anxiety rescues, and most things in between. I just really like animals! I want to make sure they're happy, healthy, and well cared for. I am a student finishing up my degree, a part time worker, and avid volunteer, so my schedule is all over the place, but luckily it's mostly under my control, so I can arrange it around a pet's needs. My home is set up to cater to the needs and comfort of my senior cat. I do have a large amount of houseplants, not all of which are pet- friendly, but these are largely out of reach and can be moved to a closed off room if necessary. I have several ways to separate animals if need be, am comfortable with crating, and generally being aware of potential hazards. At a client's house I am able to follow clear instructions and make sure proper protocols are followed (separate feeding, enclosures, making sure doors are open/ closed etc)
About: I've had dogs in my life since day 1 and previously ran my own dog grooming/daycare and boarding business out of my home. I have since switched careers but my love of dogs never left! My home has 1 small, blind, old dog, 1 playful and well mannered lab, dog-savvy cats and chickens outside, so there is plenty to keep your pup busy and entertained. We live in a quiet neighborhood with a large fully fenced yard close to parks and beaches. *We do have stairs in our house, and to the backyard* Our new fur friends are welcome to join us on outings if allowed. I am also home quite a bit throughout the day so it is unlikely they will ever be alone longer than a few hours at a time. There are also 2 animal loving, respectful children in the home so although I am patient, experienced and able to deal with a variety of issues, all dogs must be non-aggressive/reactive and great around kids. If this seems like a good fit I'd love to discuss with you more! I work from home quite a bit and also spend a lot of time outdoors in the yard or on walks/hikes so pets in the home get a lot of attention (if wanted) and outdoor time. I try to keep feeding and walk schedules as consistent as possible so pets feel at home. If they prefer to be crated at night we can do that, or they can sleep anywhere they please. My goal is to keep things familiar so they settle in quickly.
“This was a very positive experience. Bryce was very loving and intuitive with my dog and I would highly recommend him for your pet. Thanks so much Bryce...I will def have you spend time with my dog again...”
About: Lover of all animals. Throughout my life, I’ve owned and helped care for dogs, cats, fish, birds, rodents, and even reptiles! I grew up with dogs, have dog sat for family and friends throughout my teens, and have provided casual care for friends’ dogs in my adult life. Though I haven’t had the space for a dog of my own yet, I hope to adopt someday. In the meantime, I figured pet sitting would be the next best thing! As for cats, I have cared for my own the past 9 years. I love cats just as much as dogs while understanding the behavioural differences between the two. I live in the West Shore, but commute downtown a couple of times a week for work, allowing me flexibility for drop ins and walks whether you’re in the West Shore yourself or downtown. On the weekends, my availability is very flexible and I am typically able to provide even full time care on Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays. I have a calm and patient demeanor and always take the time to help make pets feel more comfortable. I understand how stressful it can be for pets to be separated from their people and want to provide as inclusive and stress-free of an environment possible for them while providing the utmost attentive care for their needs.
About: My journey with dogs started early. I have loved and cared for my very own dog since I was 10 years old. This lifelong experience taught me how to read dog body language. I truly understand their routines, signals, and emotional needs. As I grew older, I naturally began pet sitting for my friends. I have successfully managed everything from high-energy outdoor walks to quiet, cozy evenings at home. I know exactly how to adapt to each unique pet's personality. I am currently working part-time and I am available Wednesday and thursday from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM, as well as on Saturdays from 11:00 PM to 6:00 PM When caring for pets at my home, I provide a safe, fully supervised, and loving environment with plenty of playtime and attention. For services at your home, I strictly follow your pet's regular routine, ensure your property is completely secure, and send regular photo updates so you can have total peace of mind.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Langford
We are so thankful to have had Karen take care of our little guy. We have a senior with higher medical needs and Karen really put our minds at ease. She was punctual, very communicative, and sent lots of pictures. We were able to enjoy our trip with no anxiety. We will definitely be reaching to Karen again when we need care!
Barbara did a lovely job cat sitting for us! Our kitty warmed up to her quickly and was well taken care of while we were away for a few days. She sent us thorough reports of everything they did during her visit, and tons of photos. This is our first time using Rover so we were a bit hesitant but after our initial meeting we felt very comfortable and confident about leaving our kitty in her care and we are very impressed with the job she did. Would highly recommend Barbara!
Hope has been wonderful with our dog, Leo! He can take a little time to warm up to new people, and Hope has been incredibly kind, patient, and attentive with him. She always provides updates after each visit, which we really appreciate and gives us peace of mind knowing Leo is in great hands. We’re so happy we found Hope and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone caring, reliable and trustworthy to look after their pup! :)
We left on a week trip and were lucky to find Megan. She was punctual great with communication and did everything we had asked plus more. Both our kitties were well fed and had clean boxes when we returned home. Would recommend and know who we will reach out to for our next trip.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Langford is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $36 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
There are 798 sitters on Rover for Pet Sitting in Langford. About 82% of Langford sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
You can coordinate how much supervision you want directly with your sitter. While every sitter’s schedule varies, here are some examples of supervision by pet care service:
- Boarding or doggy day care: Many sitters can provide frequent companionship because they design their day specifically around the pets in their care or work from home.
- House sitting: Your sitter generally stays in your home for the requested duration, which may include overnight care. They may step out briefly to visit other pet clients, but your home remains their primary base.
- Drop-in visits or dog walking: These can be scheduled in 30- or 60-minute windows (and can be shorter or longer at your request) to help your pet receive dedicated attention and care during those specific times.
Interested in constant or 24/7 care? This service often incurs an additional fee but many sitters are happy to discuss this option with you.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Langford choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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.
Payment is handled securely through Rover. For a one-time booking, your payment method is charged at the time of checkout when you submit your booking request. This charge will include fees payable to Rover. Your booking is confirmed once the sitter accepts it.
If the request is not accepted, the pending charge is released in 1-7 days. How long it takes to disappear from your account depends on your payment provider.
For eligible recurring weekly services, you are charged for the first week when you book and then each Monday for the upcoming week. You’ll see the full price before you confirm. Always pay through Rover so your booking remains eligible for the Rover Guarantee and support.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
