“Erika is great and I highly recommend her services. Our dog is anxious with strangers, so Erika agreed to a couple of meetings before the actual dates that we required her services. While we were away, she took great care of our dog and our house. Easy 5 stars!”
“We were away for a week, and Ashlyn cared for our Frenchie and our home as if they were her own. I am so grateful for her care and attention to detail. Thank you so much, Ashlyn!”
“As always, Kaitlin did a great job of looking after our dog and home. I was a pleasure to return after an exhausting flight to a happy pet and well maintained, clean home.”
“Cassidy was great. Everything was well taken care of and my cat Bella loved having her. So much that Bella was a little disappointed when she saw me come through the door and not Cassidy. LOL.”
“Welleft our dog alone for a few days with Jade and couldn’t be happier with her services. Lots of photos, super clean house when we returned, she is the full package! We will be using her every time we go on vacation now!”
About: I come from a family of pet lovers, being surrounded by every breed and pet possible. I have house and pet sat for friends and family my entire life. It’s a gift for me to make your pets feel loved and secure, as it is comforting for the owners. I currently work from home (or your home) in marketing, I may go into the office 1-2 days a week. I just want pets to feel loved and secure in their own comfort zone. As your trusted pet sitter, I'll create a secure and nurturing environment, ensuring your furry friend feels loved and safe. Daily updates and tailored care plans provide peace of mind, with lots of playtime, fresh food, and gentle companionship, making your pet’s comfort my top priority.
About: As an individual who was an employee at a dog rescue I have experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I was responsible for feeding, walking, playing, administering medications, bathing and giving lots of love to all kinds of dogs. Additionally, I have my Veterinary Technical Assistant certification. Over the years I have been someone that family friends have trusted to care for their pets and I hope you will too! I’m currently a full time university student with classes ending by 12:30 on most days. My evenings are often wide open so I could spend lots of time giving your pet the care they deserve. My availability on weekends is very open therefore I could give your pets my undivided attention. I would follow any feeding, walking, and behavioural procedures that owners have in place to ensure that your pet does not waver from their routine even if their owners are not there.
About: I grew up in a household that always had dogs, so l've spent most of my life learning how to properly feed, groom, bathe, and play with them. My family currently has two medium-sized dogs, and I absolutely adore them. I love spending time with them and, of course, spoiling them with the occasional treat. I work part-time from home with flexible hours, so taking care of animals during the day fits perfectly into my schedule. I often spend time at home either by myself or with my boyfriend, so I would love to have a furry friend to keep me company. I treat my pets with the highest level of care, and I bring that same level of attention and respect to every client and their home. I always make an effort to maintain a clean and fresh environment so both my pets and I can enjoy a comfortable space. When I'm in a client's home, I make sure to leave it as clean or cleaner than I found it, taking the time to clean up any messes a pet may have made.
“Mae did an amazing job caring for our two dogs and two cats. She managed to win over our very timid senior cat, who shys away from eating and taking her meds. Mae had her eating and taking her meds without an issue. We appreciated Mae's regular communication with comments, pics and videos of our pets while they were in her care. It was clear our pets were happy and well looked after. It gave us peace of mind while we were away. I would highly recommend Mae to anyone in need of pet care!”
About: I have had dogs my whole life, all breeds and sizes. I currently have 2 golden retrievers, Rosie and Chauncey and I love them so much and yes they both sleep in the bed with me! I want another one but those puppy stages are bananas, so not right now but one day. I feel like I can reads dog well with when they want space and when they want to play. You can trust that your dogs will be taken care of when I’m taking care of them, kisses and hugs all the time! Currently I work at a golf course and the season is over middle of October so my availability will be more flexible after this time. I try and not disrupt their daily routine. When I go out of town and my brother isn’t able to watch my 2 dogs I appreciate someone that has dogs or has grown up with them because they understand the importance for me about the care of my dogs and how they live their day to day schedule.
About: Ive always had dogs growing up in my family home and once I moved out I got a dog of my own to take care of. I am capable of making sure every dog is treated differently based on what they need on a day to day basis. I am also very energetic and if a dog needs more then just a walk, I’d be willing to speed walk/jog/sprint/run or whatever there needs may be. I have a job, typically 8am-4:30pm (Monday-Friday), yet I also have a very energetic dog myself. We like to do early morning walks and evening adventures. So your dog is okay with that so are we! I live in a nice little basement suite with access to a backyard. I let my dog roam freely while I’m at work, Otis tends to just sleep or hangout while I’m out and about. When going to a clients house caring for the pet or hosting them here is strictly based off what the owners suggests the pet needs. Unless it’s that you need someone to be around 24/7 then that’s something I can only do over the weekends.
About: Hi! I’m Sam — lifelong animal lover and proud pet owner since I was three. I’ve looked after so many pets over the years that I’ve basically become the go‑to sitter for friends and family. I adore dogs, cats, and all furry friends, and I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I’m patient, gentle, and great with both cuddly and independent pets. I’ll follow your instructions carefully and keep you updated so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. Your pet will get tons of love, attention, and care while you’re away I’m a university student with a very open daytime schedule, and I only work part‑time in the evenings. That gives me lots of time for walks, playtime, and check‑ins during the day, plus I’m home in the evenings to give your pet attention and keep their routine steady I love to play with the dogs and make sure that they feel loved especially when their owner is not home and make them feel comfortable although they don’t know me.
“Brooklyn was such a great sitter for our doggy. She was v communicative and so easy to work with. We loved how easy-going and conscientious she was. She’s totally the right gal for working with our pup! So lucky to have found her!”
“Rylee was AMAZING! She watched our pup over Christmas while we were out of the country and we were super happy with everything during the week! We got pictures daily and she kept us updated if there was anything we needed to know. She also brought in packages and mail we got over the week which was really great! Our pup can be needy and anxious but she handled everything so well that we were never worried about him!”

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Martensville 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 Martensville 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 Martensville 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:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
