About: I've been caring for my own dogs and cats since childhood, as well as sitting for friends and family over many years. I'm experienced and comfortable with large and small breed dogs, and kitties of all ages and stages. I have experience administering medications, as well as daily feline diabetes treatment. I'm a compassionate animal lover and am happiest when accompanied by a furry friend! I have full time availability and am ready and willing to accommodate your pet's schedule. Your pet is my first priority and my schedule will revolve around their needs. I am conscientious, trustworthy, and responsible. I will treat your pet and home with the utmost care and respect. Your furry friend will get lots of love and attention and your home can be entrusted to me with confidence.
About: I have had large dogs around my whole life including: collies, St.Bernese, St Bernard’s, and basset hounds. I’ve personally had a German Shepherd, American Stanford Terrier, pug that all lived full happy lives and now a 5 year old Chihuahua pug. I have house and dog sat for family and friends etc and am free all holidays . I currently work part-time from home and set my work hours. My dogs have never been entirely alone. I can schedule and arrange my other obligations to match what is needed. I strive to maintain training continuity and avoid disrupting their current routine as much as possible, regardless of the setting. I believe staying in their familiar environment inherently minimizes the disruption they feel while your away, but I promise to provide the same level of dedication and care. And if more outdoor time is the goal im always happy to accommodate long dog park requests
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs since I was born, and now have my own 5 year old dog I’ve raised and trained. I have a calm, gentle, loving demeanor, and would love to welcome your pet with open arms! I am an elementary teacher, so will be out of the house during working hours. Available evening and weekends, but happy to share my home with dogs all day, every day! Will adjust my schedule however needed in order for your pet to feel welcome. I have a fenced yard and a very gentle Mini Labradoodle to keep your pup company. I also have a (gentle) 2 year old to keep energy burning!
About: I am Sim, lover of all pets, young and old, big and small. I have had pets since I was 5 years old and I am a mommy to my Labrador. I am sure I will pamper your pooch. Any specific requests for them? Let me know! I allow them on my couch, unless you prefer them not to. I always keep the water bowl full and pets happy and healthy. I am incredibly reliable, trustworthy, and flexible. I am currently working casual, so your baby will get non stop attention. Consistent walks, snuggles, and play sessions are the best way to soothe your fuzzy friend. I live in a house with a fenced yard and friendly neighbors! I also have a very welcoming dog who is going to be a great company for your little guy.
“Hannah was very responsive and attentive during the sitting service. Hannah followed a lot of instructions well. Grooming my two medium-hairs daily was very important and I appreciated Hannah's willingness to take the time to do it. Hannah will spend the time needed to properly care for your animals and I would happily hire this sitter again.”

About: I am an educator that has gone to peoples homes to work with children. My favourite part is all of the different pets I get to see which they all love me. I work part time for the county doing customer service and tutor sometimes in the evenings. I can be gone from 6-8 hours on some days or home all day depending on my schedule. I love to spend all of my free time cuddling with pets or going on walks ❤️. I am a very clean individual and so I always like to make sure I leave it just as clean when I leave. Not only that but I always ensure that I give focus to animals, playing with them frequently, going on walks (if cats like it I do walks for them too!), and of course taking care of their needs.
About: We know firsthand that dogs are family. We cared for our beloved dog for 11 years through two knee surgeries and several other procedures due to genetic health issues, giving her the best care every step of the way. That experience taught us patience, responsibility, and how to recognize when a dog needs extra attention. We provide a calm, loving home, daily walks, plenty of affection, and will follow your dog's routine exactly as you request. We treat every dog like one of our own and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy peace of mind while you're away. We both work full-time Monday to Friday, so we're best suited for dogs that are comfortable being home alone for up to 8 hours during the workday. Every dog gets a morning walk before we leave, an evening walk when we're home, and lots of love and attention afterward. On weekends we're home most of the day, so your dog will have plenty of companionship, playtime, and cuddles. Your dog's safety and comfort are our top priorities. We'll follow your dog's feeding schedule, medication routine, exercise needs, and any special instructions exactly as requested. We treat every dog like a member of our family and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pup is in good hands. We also volunteer with an incredible pet rescue in Edmonton dog sitting for fosters while they wait for their forever home and absolutely love everything about it. All dogs we watch will 100% be treated like royalty 💜 We also have a toy box full of new toys where your incredible pet gets to bring home their favorite toy after their stay 🥰
About: I was lucky enough to share 15 years with my dog Kaya, raising her from a 2-month-old pup until her final day. I personally trained her, including off-leash walking, and cared for her through every life stage - from the high energy puppy phase to her senior years. I've had dogs in my life since i was very young and I very much enjoy their company - whether its going for long walks or just hanging out at home. I am currently in the process of a career change and am in school full time, working part time and am looking to fill my time with something i love doing! Pet care fits easily into my lifestyle. I’ve recently stepped away from full-time work to focus on full time studies, which means I’m home and available much more often. Currently, I only work weekends on an alternating schedule of days and evenings, leaving me with plenty of open time during the week. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. At my home, pets are welcome to relax with me in the living room or rest in my room if they prefer a quieter space. I don’t have a fenced yard, but I can make up for it with plenty of outdoor time. I live close to the river valley walking trails and nearby dog parks. I’m attentive to each pet’s unique needs, whether that means structured walks, supervised play, or quiet downtime. I take precautions to ensure pets are never left unsupervised in unsafe situations, and I’m committed to keeping them on their regular feeding, exercise, and care routines. For clients who prefer care in their own home, I respect your space and follow your instructions closely to make sure your pet feels secure and comfortable in their familiar environment. Building trust—both with pets and their people—is at the heart of how I provide care.
About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life since I was around 4. I’ve been surrounded by cats and dogs, giving me lots of experience! I’ve had both cats and dogs my entire life, I’ve taken care of their daily needs since I was 10 years old. I make sure to have my schedule fit with letting my dogs out and feeding my animals. I am the biggest animal lover, I will spend time with dogs and cats over humans most of the time. I always keep an eye on the animals I’m taking care of, and I will always follow their schedules and needs!
About: I’ve always loved animals and have plenty of experience caring for cats and dogs. I’m patient, responsible, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs and routine. I’m currently growing my clientele, so my rates may be flexible depending on your pet’s needs and the length of the booking. Feel free to reach out and ill be happy to discuss what works best. I’m free most of the time. Do I’ll be happy to work with you and do my best to fit your pet care needs into my daily routine. I make sure every pet’s individual needs and routine are accommodated so both the pet and their owner are happy and comfortable. I carefully follow any instructions provided and make sure pets receive the attention, care, and affection they need.
About: For 16 wonderful years, I cared for my own highly anxious dog who, in her senior years, also became blind and deaf. That experience taught me deep patience, compassion, and how to make even the most sensitive pups feel safe and loved. I understand that every dog has their own personality and needs — and I’m here to meet them with care and kindness. Whether your dog needs a high-energy walk, some cozy company while you’re away, or just extra love and attention, I’ve got it covered. I’m dependable, easy to reach, and treat every furry friend like family. Expect regular updates, happy tails, and total peace of mind. Let’s keep your pup safe, loved, and having the best time—every time we hang out! I work a full-time job during the day, but I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting after 3:30 PM on weekdays and fully available on weekends. Whether your pup needs an evening walk, dinner-time company, or weekend care, I’ve got you covered with plenty of love, patience, and reliable service! Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for your pup in your home or mine, I create a calm, secure environment where they feel safe, loved, and respected. I take time to understand each dog’s unique needs, routines, and personality. From managing anxious pups to senior dogs with special care needs, I handle every situation with patience and attention. I always follow feeding schedules, walk routines, and any special instructions you provide — and I’m happy to send regular updates so you feel confident and connected while you’re away. In your home, I’m respectful, tidy, and treat your space the way I’d want mine to be treated. In my home, pets are never left unattended for long, and I make sure they have plenty of space, enrichment, and love. You can trust that your dog is in good hands — safe, happy, and well cared for every step of the way.
About: My French Bulldog mix passed away 3 years ago at the old age of 13. Since then I've been wanting a new dog but with kids and life it's just not the right time for our family. Hoping to fill the void by caring for your pet! I would be honored if you trusted us with caring for a member of your family. Dogs who stay with me get walks through the beautiful University of Alberta farm. I would love to try and run with your dog as well if they would like that. I typically run 3-5 km once per week and my previous house guests seem to love the excersize. In the summer we often spend weekends at the family cabin and our furry friends always have an amazing time visiting. The cabin is 1 hour west of the city - a perfect dog retreat. All furry visitors are welcome and showered with attention. All family at the cabin are either previous or current dog owners including two that have been through service dog training. I do work full time but close to home. Our household, along with two boys one 15 and one 7 years old. Evenings are spent together enjoying the outdoors when we can. We'd love to have a dog come and enjoy our evening time together and helping us make sure we don't skip our evening walks. We would love your pet as if they were our own. Daily walks, love and attention. Pets would sleep with me or in the crate whatever you prefer. Can keep up with training as needed.
“This our second time booking Kelcy, and once again she did an amazing job stopping by to feed and visit our two cats while we were away. She kept us updated and sent us lots of pictures. We will definitely book her again.”

About: Hello! My name is Ashlea, I just have Mac the cat with me during the day. I am working from home during the week and could use some company! Boarding and pet sitting at your house will be easy (as long as you have wifi!) and a break from the computer for a walk would be in the best interests of both me and your pup. I need a few more little paws keeping me awake during the day, and also awake at night! lol I am currently working from home full time so there is no restriction on how much time I can spend with your pets! I think I need them around more than they need me! I have a fenced yard, access to nice walking paths and safe areas to play and plenty of experience with dogs of all breeds and personality types!

About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was 11 years old. My dog Tank was my best friend until he passed away a few years ago. Now any time I am excited for any time I get to spend with animals and I love caring for furry friends! I am currently working Wednesday to Friday and Sunday evenings but my mornings are generally free. I have Mondays off so I can do pet care any time that day! I am very friendly and eager to go for walks! I will treat your pet with the utmost care and respect your household and follow any rules you may have.
“I have never left my boys with anyone other than family & friends, but the second I met Saoirse I had no worries at all. She was absolutely amazing and I know my boys will miss her. I loved getting picture updates everyday and her comments each day were very informative and hilarious to read. It was so nice to have someone who truly loved animals, and after meeting them she loved them immediately like her own. I won’t be booking with anyone other than her from this point forward, she was amazing and I could go on and on forever praising her. Thank you for giving me peace of mind knowing that my boys were cared for and given lots of pets and love!”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter than Zoe. She did drop-in visits for our four cats over two weeks and truly went above and beyond in every way. Her communication was excellent—she provided detailed notes after each visit along with lots of pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our cats were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Zoe also took amazing care of our home. She even shoveled when it snowed and brought in packages that arrived while we were gone, which was incredibly thoughtful. When we returned, the house smelled fresh and clean—not like litter at all—which says so much about the level of care she put in. We would absolutely recommend Zoe to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring pet sitter.”

Melinda had a meet and greet with Simba and two drop on visits with him. She was very patient and understanding of Simba’s barking (he is a small poodle iykyk). Im a very nervous dog mom and Melinda made us feel comfortable leaving Simba in her care. Would book with her for next time.

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Larkspur
Frequently asked questions about Rover
There are 1,115 sitters on Rover for Dog Sitting in Larkspur. About 88% of Larkspur 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.
Before the first visit, give your sitter clear written instructions covering your pet’s feeding routine, medication, litter or toilet care, preferred activities, behaviour, and anything that may make them anxious. This is a good idea, even if you’ve had a Meet & Greet.
Your instructions should explain where supplies, such as food, treats, medication, leashes, litter and cleaning supplies are kept. Include your vet’s details and an emergency contact, and let your sitter know what signs could indicate that something is wrong.
For some visits, you may want to confirm how the sitter will access your home and identify any rooms or areas that are off-limits. Update these instructions whenever your pet’s routine or needs change.
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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 Larkspur 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.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
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.
