“First time using rover and very happy with our overall experience! Katie took great care of our two dogs, giving them daily exercise and cuddles. Also we came home to a clean house and yard! Thank you Katie!”
“Ayla has been absolutely wonderful with me ( high maintenance pet mom) and my girl Maryellen. Quick to respond to my messages, here when she says she’s going to be, sends lots of pics and corresponds if she has any questions and the bonus of a detailed note about the day. My girl is on meds and has some anxiety issues which can be difficult to deal with at times and I appreciate Ayla’s calm loving manner. It’s been a huge help to me and can rest easy knowing she’s in good capable hands. Didn’t want to leave a review because I don’t want anyone to steal her haha. Thanks sweetheart I appreciate it more than you know.”
“Kylie sent several wonderful photos of Amy including some of her interaction with Amy. Kylie knows how to be with my independent and strong willed feline and keep her content, fed and happy. Thanks Kylie, I was confident of Amy's care!”

I am highly knowledgeable in my ability to creat a safe and fun environment for your furry friends. I have worked with dogs all shapes and sizes. Dog walking is assisted with a electric scooter giving me the running/jogging option for your canine friends!

About: I am a competitor in IGP (formerly Schutzhund) as well as flyball. I have been a member of the Canadian Search Dog Association, worked at a dog kennel, ran training classes, and am experienced in puppy raising. I am comfortable handling females in season, and intact dogs. I am comfortable in giving prescribed medication. I am currently available on during the week & weekends for boarding, pet drop in, dog walking, and private training lessons. I have dogs of my own, do daily walks and training sessions. I have a 6 foot fence that surrounds my yard. Dogs have to be crate trained to be able to stay in my home. Guests if leash trained will have walks and play times in the yard. Your dog will receive private one on one time with myself. I will do my best to stay on the schedule your dog is used to when it comes to their daily care. If I am providing care in your home I will do my best to follow your schedule.
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exceptional Cat Sitter - Highly Recommended! Christen recently looked after my cat, Nico, for 10 days, and I couldn't be happier with the care she provided. Nico is a shy, nervous cat who isn't overly friendly with new people, so I was amazed at how quickly Christen gained her trust and made friends with her. Throughout my trip, she regularly sent photos and updates, and it was wonderful to see how comfortable and relaxed Nico became in her care. Those messages gave me tremendous peace of mind while I was away. I especially appreciated Christen's attentiveness when Nico experienced some tummy issues. She contacted me right away, and together we were able to determine that the culprit was some bad indoor grass. Her communication and concern demonstrated how genuinely invested she was in Nico's well-being. When I returned home, my house was clean, tidy, and exactly as I had left it. Most importantly, Nico was happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for. In fact, she seemed to be looking around for Christen after I got home, which says more than anything I could write about the bond she formed with Nico during her stay! I would not hesitate to recommend Christen to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter. She went above and beyond, and I will absolutely be a repeat client. Thank you, Christen, for taking such wonderful care of Nico! Tracey & Nico 🐾”
About: Ive had experience around multiple types of dogs. However I love seniors as mine is currently 17 and enjoys lots of naps. But I just love any dog and will be sure to give them the best possible experience Well I care for my own senior dog most days feeding her twice a day, and giving her bathroom breaks every few hours. And can fit others into a schedule as I'm a uni student looking to fill my summer with cuddles and critters (the good kind) I can not guarantee offering services at my house because of my senior dog and pet policy but would love to meet your pet at your home. I would feed and give potty breaks and gain their trust through repetitive measures of letting them get used to me, as after all I'm new in there space and don't want them to get uncomfortable and obviously I know that takes time so I'll let them warm up to me as well before attempting to do anything that may provoke or spook the sweet creatures.
About: My primary concern is the Health & Welfare of your Fur baby! I possess K9 First Aide and also a Alberta Health & Safety Advisor. Caring for pets as my primary source of income.

Absolutely outstanding! Ali came and hung out with our 3 giant dogs and 1 Mr Cat for a couple of days while we went away for business. She took excellent care of them all. The house was spotless and she even changed the sheets on the bed. Cannot say enough good stuff about her. 100% recommend!
Ivan was great with Bo & updating me with pictures & videos. Ivan took the time during his stay to work on training with Bo to keep with his daily schedule. From Ivan’s updates Bo got along really well with Ivan. I look forward to having Ivan dog sit again in the future.
Oh my goodness what an awesome find! She is awesome. She knows what she’s doing. She has talent. I am so grateful. I never worried once while I was gone the whole weekend. She loves my dogs and they love her. Definitely a keeper she knows her stuff and she goes above and beyond.

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Lethbridge maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Garbage & recycling: Taking garbage bins to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Lethbridge walking routes, the location of your favourite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
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 Lethbridge 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!
You can find what you need to review a sitter on their profile before booking with them. Each sitters’s profile on Rover shows verified reviews, a background check, and ratings to give a glimpse of how their previous visits went. You can also use the Meet & Greet to walk through your home, identifying which areas, like your bedroom, are off-limits or not. Requesting details of your home security through the app can also be a good way to have your sitter keep you updated about your home.
If you have security cameras or doorbells, Rover asks that you disclose them to sitters before you book.
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.
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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
