About: As a dedicated and experienced pet sitter, I offer comprehensive, loving care for your pets, ensuring they are safe, comfortable, and happy in your absence. With a background in animal first aid and a deep understanding of pet health, I’m fully prepared to handle any situation that arises, including administering all types of medications and providing specialized care for diabetic pets. I am highly observant, trained to spot potential emergency situations before they escalate, so you can trust that your pet is in capable hands. Whether your furry friend needs routine care, medications, or monitoring for specific health concerns, I tailor my services to meet their unique needs. With a warm, friendly demeanor, I build strong relationships with both pets and their owners, ensuring peace of mind while you’re away. Your pet’s health, happiness, and well-being are always my top priority. I integrate pet care seamlessly into my daily and weekly schedule, ensuring that each pet receives the time, attention, and care they deserve without disruption. Whether it's a morning walk, mid-day medication administration, or evening playtime, I prioritize consistency and reliability. I tailor my services around each pet's specific needs—whether it's providing extra support for senior pets, giving medication on time, or simply offering companionship and care when their owners are away. My flexible routine allows me to accommodate your pet's needs while maintaining a balanced and organized schedule. When caring for pets in their own environment, I make sure to maintain their routine as much as possible to reduce stress and anxiety. I follow your pet's daily schedule, ensuring they get their meals, medications, and exercise at the right times. I take extra care to provide them with comfort, companionship, and mental stimulation through play and cuddling, while respecting the familiarity of their home. I keep the space clean, monitor their well-being, and keep you updated with regular check-ins or photos, so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Josselyn was great with our two cats. She was so professional and attentive to our cats. She provided detailed updates with photos and videos. Would definitely recommend booking Josselyn for your pets!”

“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!!”

About: I’ve always had a huge love for animals and have experience caring for many different types of pets. Along with my two dogs, I’ve spent years pet sitting dogs and cats for family friends and have experience caring for pets with different personalities, sizes, and needs. I’ve also previously owned a bearded dragon and lots of fish, so I’m comfortable learning and following care routines for animals beyond just cats and dogs. I’m responsible, patient, and very attentive to each pet’s individual needs. I genuinely love animals and take pride in making sure they feel safe, comfortable, cared for, and loved while their owners are away. I currently work part time and I’m in school but I’m available Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays after 2pm. I’m also available anytime on Saturdays but I’m only available on Sunday evenings :) I treat every client’s home and pets with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I follow all instructions closely, keep pets safe and supervised, and make sure doors, gates, and other areas are secure. I’m attentive to changes in a pet’s behaviour or health and will communicate with the owner if anything seems unusual. I also respect the home by keeping things clean, being mindful of belongings, and making sure everything is as it was when I arrived.
About: I can take care of your pet in your home or go on a great walk. I look forward to seeing all the animals and servicing their needs. I work from home and have open availability to service clients. I’m available day or night. You pet will be happy and satisfied with my care. I don’t offer the service of the animals coming to my house. I will come to the animal. I have transportation and am available for anywhere in the Edmonton and surrounding areas

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.
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.
About: Hello, Pet Parents! 👋 I’ve spent my entire life surrounded by animals—from farm cats in my childhood to training our family puppy for agility competitions in my teens. Animals aren’t just a hobby for me; they are my passion. While in university, I dedicated my time to volunteering at the SPCA, helping rehabilitate and comfort large, fearful dogs. Today, my home is filled with love from our two cats—including my 17-year-old senior orange tabby, Naranjito—and our family dog. Why Choose Me? Through years of personal pet ownership and professional pet sitting (including dogs, cats, and birds), I have developed a comfort level with specialized medical care: Senior Care: Understanding the gentle pace and extra patience older pets need. Injectable Medications & Testing: Experienced with diabetic care, including blood tests and insulin injections. Special Needs & Emergency Calm: Capable of managing complex conditions like canine epilepsy and severe allergies, ensuring your pet is comforted and safe during vulnerable moments. To us, our pets are a wonderful, beloved part of our world. But to them? We are their entire world. That simple realization shapes everything I do as a pet sitter. Every interaction, every walk, and every cuddle session comes down to one fundamental question: How is this animal experiencing the world, and how can I make that experience better? Animals experience life through a completely different lens—and often, a completely different nose! When your dog goes for a walk, it isn't just about physical exercise; it’s their morning newspaper, their social feed, and their grand adventure. When I’m with your pets, I act as their bridge to a bigger, more exciting world: For the dogs: It’s giving them the time and patience to sniff out every trail, explore new scents, and satisfy their curiosity. (My own pup always inspects my pant legs to get the full report on which fur-friends I’ve visited!) For the cats: It’s tuning into their subtle signals, and letting them explore at their own pace—whether that's investigating a new toy or scent-checking where I've been. I don't believe in "one-size-fits-all" pet sitting. Every animal has a distinct personality, and unique comfort zones. My goal is to meet them right where they are and provide genuine mental and physical enrichment while you're away. I treat every pet as the center of my universe while they're in my care—because I know you are the center of theirs. I work as a part-time letter carrier, but I have mornings (until 12), almost all evenings, and most weekends available to care for your pet(s). I have been called "too trusting" in my past... but this has luckily never injured me in a serious way. In fact, the worst thing is realizing that my standard of trustworthiness is NOT universal... but that has made me more skeptical of others when it really matters. Caring for your pet is something that requires a lot of trust of me, and I appreciate your skepticism. I wouldn't leave my fur-babies with just anyone, too. Training dogs when I was younger made me much more aware of body language and different personalities. I am always watching for potential stressors or safety issues. I love giving dogs the freedom of an off-leash area, but would have to trust that they will listen to me before being comfortable with any safety risks involved with that.
About: I have had pets my entire life, ranging from cats and dogs to pygmy goats! I have experience with a wide variety of pets with different personalities and I love getting to see all their different little quirks and learning how to care for them! I am a university student and I work Monday and Thursday evenings. I have most evenings and the weekends to care for and spend time with your pets! I always try to enter the situation with a warm and kind energy but I also always focus on them and their needs and watch for signs of discomfort and anxiety from them. If the animals do show signs of distress I will always keep my distance and let them come to me when they are ready! I always try and predict and watch for their needs so they can receive the care they need whenever.
“Blayne was very professional and friendly. She sent many updates with pictures and videos of my cat Bravo after the visits, and allowed me to have a peaceful trip knowing Bravo was in good hands! Thank you so much Blayne.”

About: I am a huge animal lover and a proud pet parent to two cats and a big, energetic Sheepadoodle! Because I care for my own furry family every day, I know exactly how much trust it takes to leave your pets with someone else. I will absolutely treat yours like my own. My previous cat lived to be 21 years old, so I have a lot of handson experience with the gentle, patient care that older animals require. I am dedicating my time full-time to pet care, specifically focusing on cat drop-in visits. Because my schedule is completely open and highly flexible, I can easily accommodate your cat's preferred routine, whether they need morning, afternoon, or evening check-ins. I have plenty of time to give them undivided attention, active playtime, and all the cuddles they want! Since I specialize exclusively in drop-in visits, my top priority is making sure your cat feels safe, relaxed, and happy in their own home territory. I am highly observant, detail-oriented, and extremely respectful of your living space. During my visits, I ensure all doors are secure, meticulously clean the litter boxes, and strictly follow your specific feeding or care instructions. I will always send you detailed updates and lots of photos so you can have total peace of mind while you are away!
About: Its hard enough to leave a pet with a stranger I'm hoping to make that a little bit easier. Besides taking care of personal pets since I was 10yrs old, in recent years I've taking a liking to babysitting friends dogs both at their home or mine. I have a daughter who I consider when looking at my schedule and as long as we have a friendly bunch I would be taking her along. I've taught her to respect animals just as much as I do and pet personal space is considered into that. I have a small fenced yard, but plenty of walking trails around. I don't have any pets of my own besides the 2 dogs and cat at my moms that stayed with my family when I moved out. I like to engage with the animals, if I'm coming to your house or otherwise to care for your animal I want them to feel seen and loved in the stressful moments while the most important people in their life are away.

Melinda was amazing with my two cats while I was away for a few days! So attentive to details, lots of love and attention for my boys, and incredible communication around their needs and what was going on at my place. Melinda was even kind enough to put out my garbages for me because I forgot. Can’t recommend enough! 💜

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.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Laurel is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $28 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 1,172 sitters on Rover for Pet Sitting in Laurel. About 88% of Laurel 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 Laurel 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:
