“Lexi stayed with Susan and Robin for four nights whilst we were at a family wedding in Vancouver. She was very well cared for and I would not hesitate to leave her in their capable hands in the future. Thank you so much! Alex & Ian”

“Maggie was with Terry for a week and I usually worry because she is anxious around new people and being left but what a time she had! She seemed like she didn’t want to come home when I went to pick her up. She had lots of walks and off leash park time and playing in the yard; lots of cuddle time it seems. She even took to Jim, Terry’s husband right away- not one bark. It was an awesome experience for both of us. Thank you Terry for taking such great care of our Maggie ❤️ we’ll be back soon!”

“Leanne was so wonderful! My pup felt safe and nurtured, and got lots of exercise in beautiful forest and beach areas. She was so great with communicating and sending photos. I knew what my boy was up to throughout the day. Highly recommend her as a sitter and your temporary dog mom while you’re away. So grateful to have her in our lives!”

“Doug and Janice are absolutely terrific! They are very caring and went out of their way to make our dog as comfortable as possible. We could not be happier.”

“Lindsey was awesome! Great communication and made me feel very comfortable leaving my lil dude in her care! She was a breeze and I highly recommend her serves to anyone:)”

“Marcy was amazing with our puppy Leo! He had so much fun with all the other dogs he met there too. She sent me lots of pictures and photos everyday and was very quick to reply. We will definitely be sending both my dogs back to her while we are away.”
“My boys had their first full day with Kelly & Natalie today. Natalie gave them a really nice introduction to their home and then was great about updating me throughout the day with pictures to let me know that they were doing well. I felt immediately comfortable with Natalie and it’s easy to see that my dogs do as well. I’m feeling really good about leaving them for a longer period of time when we go traveling!”

“We felt so lucky to find these folks during a last minute shuffle of our plans for pet care for our dog, Maxwell. We were overwhelmed, running out of time, and stressed for our high energy breed. It was our first experience with a pet sitter and with Rover - and we were so happy with Coraline. We had a chance to meet and have a long discussion about our dog’s needs, and her calm reassuring energy helped us make a really good decision. Max had a great time, and from what I can tell he came home calmer & more grounded than when we left him (and of course we returned calmer!) it really felt like I got a better dog when I came home. We are super happy to have someone Max really enjoys being with if we ever find ourselves taking another trip without him!”

“Joanne was a great host for Wallace. He is quite anxious, but he took to her immediately - she is clearly a dog person. Joanne shared many photos with us with regular updates. Very happy overall.”

About: I have cared for pets for many years, from dogs and cats to fish, and I truly love being around animals. I’m an attentive person, and I’m willing to give your pet everything I have. I would love to take the time to understand your pet’s personality and routine. I will make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away, as well as send you regular updates! I currently work from home, so I’m home all day and have plenty of time to care for your pets. I can promise that your pet will receive lots of attention throughout the day. I’m happy to follow their usual routine, including walks, feeding, and playtime. I’ll be there to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. I have a relatively spacious home right by the lake, which gives pets a comfortable and peaceful environment to stay in. I will make sure to follow any instructions you give in order to keep your pet and myself safe.
“Juney always has a great time with Montana. She loves playing with Rune and comes home happy and tired. We get lots of updates about her adventures and It’s so nice to know she is well taken care of while we are away.”

“Shay, Matt and Chacho were so accommodating to Nala at their home. Nala went away with Shay happily excited to play with Chacho. Although she didn’t play so much with Chacho, we learnt that she got super comfy with all of them with a lot of cuddle time. Shay and Matt took Nala and Chacho on 2 great hikes in 2 days. She came home a tired pup which is a sign of all the fun and exercise she got with them. Shay was very responsive and kept us updated with photos throughout. We would trust them to take care of Nala anytime.”

“Jessica was able to watch Fat Boi on short notice. She was amazing for keeping us posted while we traveled and his being so well taken care of made the trip less stressful. Would highly recommend.”

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life. We had Golden Retrievers and a Shepard growing up and now I have my own fur baby who is a Chocolate Lab named Arthur. I’ve worked in the pet industry for many years from retail, assisting in a Vet clinic and a Sales Rep for a pet product company. I have a lot of free weekends and what better way to spend that extra time than to spend it with dogs! Please keep in mind I do have a dog that would also be in the home so your dog must be okay with other dogs. I believe in a healthy balance of exercise and down time. I will typically do 2 walks a day, plenty of play in the back yard and down time with lots of cuddles. I would also like to mention, that If you have a shy or senior dog that likes a calm environment then this is your place!
About: I was a dog owner for 12 years, always been around dogs as a child. I have a young family, with two kids who are excited to have pets in our house. I am very active, enjoy walking daily. Our family recently lost our senior dog, we miss the joy of a pet and want to enjoy the joy of having a dog around. I love walking everyday. I work from home. My husband does also work from home and available for bathroom breaks. I have direct access to fenced backyard with covered porch for pets to enjoy alot of outside time. Large fenced backyard, covered porch. My house has 2 floors which can be closed off if need be to keep pets on one floor. My neighborhood is very pet friendly, there are alot of outdoor cats that walk around.
About: I have had a dog or taken care of dogs since I was a little girl. Family, neighbours and friends have all relied on me to help take care of their pets for many years. I am a huge animal lover and a health care worker and will always provide the best and safest care for your pup. Recently I have fostered some dogs through a local rescue and helped them find their new home. I have learned alot about behaviours and training with these pups. We love to play in the yard or go for walks, and have lots of snuggles on the couch :) I currently work part time so have lots of time available to spend with your dog! My flexible schedule allows me to board your pet overnight any day of the week, or drop in for visits/walks. I have a fenced back yard and two small dogs to keep your fur baby company! Your dog is welcome to treat our home as their own and I will give them lots of love and be devoted to their happiness and well being while you are away.
About: Hi there! I’m 25 and a proud pet parent to one very cuddly cat. I’ve grown up around animals and have always been the go-to friend for dog and cat sitting, as spending time with pets truly brightens my day! I love hiking and being outdoors with furry companions, but I’m just as happy staying in for playtime and cuddles 🐾 I tailor every walk and visit to each pet’s needs, whether that means a calm neighbourhood stroll, trail adventure, or extra playtime at home. I have experience with senior pets, foster dogs, larger breeds who pull, and dogs who can be a bit reactive or need extra patience. I’m currently attending university, so while I stay as flexible as possible, bookings will need to fit around my daytime classes. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priority! I’m currently working toward my BSc in Geoscience at VIU and looking for something fun and rewarding to do around my classes and caring for pets is the perfect way to get me outside and away from the classroom! I work remotely as a child care administrator, which gives me a lot of flexibility during the week. While I’m not available all day for house sitting during school days, I’m happy to fit in walks, drop-in visits, and even last-minute bookings when my schedule allows. I always follow each pet’s routine and care instructions to keep them comfortable in their own home. Safety is a top priority and I double-check doors, gates, and leashes, and make sure pets are supervised and relaxed. I treat every home with respect and keep owners updated with messages and photos, so you can feel confident your pet is happy and cared for. 🐾

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.

The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred.

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.

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.
You and your Nanoose Bay sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
