“We had such a wonderful experience having her take care of our two cats while we were away on a family vacation. From the very beginning, she was an excellent communicator, attentive to our needs, and incredibly respectful of our home and privacy. What stood out the most was how careful, gentle, and genuinely caring she was with our pets. She took the time to understand their individual needs and made sure they were comfortable, safe, and well cared for while we were away. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. She was reliable, thoughtful, and clearly someone who truly loves animals. We came home knowing our cats had been treated with the same care and attention we would give them ourselves. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their pets. **We will definitely hire her again!** ❤️”
“Melinda was fantastic with both my cats. Milo got all the playtime and attention he loves, and she was wonderfully patient with Russell until he warmed up. I came home to two happy, relaxed boys. The photo updates were thoughtful and reassuring and it was obvious Melinda took the time to get to know each cat's personality. Highly recommend, especially if you have a mix of confident and cautious cats. Will definitely book again. Thanks for looking after Milo and Russell, Melinda! ❤️”
About: I’ve been around dogs, cats, goats, chickens, horses, etc- since I was a child, spending many summers in my family’s farm. I’ve grown up loving animals and have a 2 year old dog of my own as well that I’ve self trained. I am able to be really flexible with my work schedule, and can take time off as well. I usually have full availability if I’m notified about a week in advance. This is a family home with a very friendly dog so your baby will never get bored. We have lots of dog parks and walking areas nearby. We provide a super fun and safe environment, and activities will be tailored based on your dog’s temperament and any schedule/instructions you provide. Whether they’re super energetic or shy, I’ll be sure to provide a home away from home! I can only take two dogs at a time. There are no children living in the house.
About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover with over 30 years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. Pets have always been an important part of my life, and I treat them like family members. I joined Rover because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and want to provide reliable, compassionate care when their owners can't be there. I have experience caring for pets of all ages, including senior pets, and I'm comfortable administering medications and following detailed care instructions. I also have experience with shy and anxious pets and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and earning an animal's trust. Every pet is unique, and I take the time to provide care that matches their individual personality and needs. As a mature, responsible professional, I understand how important trust and communication are. I'll treat your pet as if they were my own and keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident they're happy, safe, and well cared for. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! Caring for animals has always been a part of my daily routine. I currently care for my own senior cat and understand the importance of consistency, reliability, and attention to detail when it comes to pet care. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate walks and drop-in visits throughout the week. When caring for a client's pet, I make it a priority to follow their routine as closely as possible and provide the attention, exercise, companionship, and care their pet needs. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so pet care is something I look forward to rather than simply another task on my schedule. I believe pets are happiest when their normal routine is maintained, so I take the time to learn each pet's individual needs and preferences. During drop-in visits, I'll ensure your pet has fresh food and water, potty breaks as needed, playtime, companionship, and plenty of affection. For cats, I'll also scoop litter boxes and keep their area clean and comfortable. For dogs, I'll provide safe, enjoyable walks tailored to their age, energy level, and abilities. Whether your dog enjoys a brisk walk or a slower-paced stroll with lots of sniffing and exploring, I'll make sure they get the exercise and attention they need. I treat every pet as if they were my own and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
About: I’ve grown up around all different kinds of animals, I’ve volunteer at shelters and also worked at a dog kennel. I have two dogs of my own aswell! I currently working part time, and I have plenty of time to hang out with your pets, and give them lots of love and exercise. I will follow your instructions about your pets care/ needs and make sure I do everything that will make sure they feel comfortable and safe.
“Jasmine was diligent, going through Scooter's care instructions for the visit, following along with his medication instructions for his gum infection. Checked in, polite, made Scooter comfortable.”
“Samantha put me at ease right away as soon as I met her. She’s a natural with animals, you can tell right away. Completely respected my weird cats’ personalities. Highly recommend and will book her again.”
“Harleen was fantastic! We had a unique situation, visiting our daughter from our of tiwn. We needed someone to care for our pup while we took our daughter out for dinner. Harleen had super communication before and during her stay with Tashi. We highly recommend Harleen and would absolutely contact again when visiting.”
“We really appreciated her patience with Benji. He was very shy and nervous with someone new, but she took her time, sat on the floor to help him feel comfortable, and never rushed him. Even though he wasn't ready for a walk, she made sure he had a chance to go outside and kept us updated throughout the visit. We'd happily book with her again.”
“AMAZING!! 2/3 of my cats are very shy and Ana was able to bring them out of their shell and play with them and get some cuddles! Her short visits helped me feel so much better about leaving my kitties for the week while I was in another province. My cats looked sooo happy in all the photos while they were eating and also getting that playtime in! So so so happy with her service. Will definitely rebook in the future if she will have me!!”
“Ava was excellent! She was quick and easy to communicate with and she took great care of our boys while we were exploring Sicamous and the Wineries! Would love to have her again when we return for another vacation! Highly recommend.”

My flexible routine allows me to accommodate your pet's needs while maintaining a balanced and organized schedule.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Laurel
Jasmine was great! I was able to do a meet and greet prior to me leaving town and show her the routine. Met all my expectations as requested and the cats seemed to love her, even Delilah let her pet her which isn’t an easy task for most people as she’s quite shy and skittish around new comers. I appreciate her punctuality as well. If ever in the future I need this type of service, Jasmine will be first choice. Highly recommend.
