“This was my first time leaving my dog Nina with a dog sitter. Steven and Gloria did an excellent job. They provided daily updates with pictures and videos of Nina, she look very comfortable and stress free. I will definitely be using their services again with no hesitation. Nina got lots of attention and care. I will fully recommend them, your dog will be in good hands. Nice and friendly people to deal with!!!!”
About: Hi, I’m Robin! Lover of all animals and will treat your dog like a member of our family! I had cats and fish growing up and then moved on to dogs! I have 10 years of hands‑on experience raising my Boston Terrier from birth and caring for her through every stage of life, including her final battle with cancer. She taught me to be patient, playful, attentive, and deeply affectionate with every dog I meet. I’ve had the pleasure of taking care of my friends and family’s dogs, and know how hard it can be to be away from your little fur babies but also at the same time be able to enjoy some alone time. As a homemaker, I’m home all day, and ready to step in and be a welcoming, affectionate and safe provider when you’re away! Your dog will get ample time to play, walk or hike ( depending on your dogs abilities) relax, snooze, and of course, eat! We have a fenced in back yard, where they’ll be able to do their “business” whenever they need and a few parks within walking distance for some leisure time. I also have experience administering oral and eye medication. Being a homemaker, mom to a 19 yr old, and having no more of our own pets, your dog will be getting plenty of time, love & attention, and supervision throughout the day. My husband works from home and loves spending time with dogs too, so your pup will always have company. I live in a townhouse where your dog will never be far from my sight, not that many places to go lol. I live in a quiet neighborhood, where our backyard is fenced and not easily accessible to public. We have carpeted stairs making it easier to get up and down and a large carpet in the living room for them to roll around and scratch their backs!
“Exceptional care for our fur baby! We left our dog, Charlie, with Oriana and her husban Jean for 10 days, and we could not have asked for a better experience. Leaving a pet for the first time and for that long can be stressful, but we were completely at ease thanks to the frequent updates and obvious love Charlie received. He had an absolute blast and was treated like family. It was so comforting to see and gave us peace of mind that our Charlie looking so happy and relaxed while we were away. We will definitely be booking again—Charlie already misses his home away from home! Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our boy!”
“Bruna was so great with my young puppy. I had to leave him for the day and was super nervous about leaving him with a stranger. Bruna made me and my partner feel secure in knowing that our puppy was safe and taken care of. She sent me many updates along throughout the day and he looked just as happy as at home. I would definitely book with Bruna again!”
“We were so happy rebooking with Alison. She always sends us messages and pictures to make sure we are updated daily. We felt our Gojo is safe and well taken cared of. Thanks Allison 🙂”
“Sara was outstanding at taking care of my dog and very patient with him as my dog can be needy at times. She sends photos and gives updates everyday. Dog was really well taken care of and he had a great time there.”
“Sunny was fantastic! Her communication was excellent and consistent, and the photo updates made me feel at ease while I was away. She took wonderful care of Akira and paid attention to every detail. I would absolutely book with her again.”
“Liudmila & Igor were great with our cockapoo. They took her out for a walk on the beach and spoiled her. She came home all exhausted and all she wanted to do was sleep. Friendly, accommodating, and responsive! thank you. we will book with you again in the future.”
“Kelsey and Chris were so fantastic with our Shiba inu, Mochi! They were very flexible with pick up and drop off times which we appreciated because we had a commitment come up and Mochi needed to stay a little bit longer than originally agreed upon! We met first for a meet and greet, which went fantastic and we did a trial night before we leave her for an extended period of time this summer. They were completely understanding and accommodating of all her funny little quirks, and their dog Dottie got along great with Mochi. Highly recommended!”
“Wei and Long went above and beyond to take care of our dog, even losing sleep to take care of him when sick, I would highly recommend them and will book with them again in the future”
“Karina was an amazing sitter for my cat! It was her first time staying in a different home and she warmed up very quickly to Karina. Karina sent me daily updates of photos and videos which helped me feel at ease. It’s clear she gives the animals she watches lots of love and attention. I would definitely recommend Karina, and would use her as a sitter again in the future :)”
“Olena and her family took wonderful care of our dog Ritchie for three weeks. From the start, communication was clear and consistent – I got regular updates, photos, and videos, which made it so much easier to be away. When I picked Ritchie up, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly very comfortable with them and their home. It really felt like he was part of their family. I’m so grateful to have found such a caring and reliable sitter and will definitely book with them again. Highly recommend!”
“Ruramai took great care of my large dog who is often reactive with other animals. Ruramai gave her lots of cuddles and belly rubs, and my dog settled into her place quickly.”
“I am so blessed and grateful to have found Gunay. She, together with her husband Sam and son Rafael took very good care of my baby Koko. I can’t thank them enough for all the care and love they provided and appreciated so much their professionalism, reliability and the constant communication sending photos and videos which put my mind at ease. Koko came home happy and calm. Will definitely be booking them again. Highly recommend!”
“Justine was an amazing sitter for my sweet girl Roca. She welcomed her into her home and loved her like she was her own. I will definitely use her again and highly recommend her for your pooch.”
“Angela and her family were wonderful taking care of Manolo. He was clearly well looked after and comfortable during his stay. Communication was great, and we felt very confident leaving him with them. We would absolutely consider Angela and her family again for any future needs and highly recommend them. Thank you Angela, you guys are great! :)”
“Flora and Cindy were very attentive and communicative during Sadie’s stay. They kindly offered a meet and greet prior to the boarding dates, and they were very flexible around pick up/drop off times. They sent regular messages and lots of photos so we knew Sadie was in good hands. Will definitely book again!!”
“Walter and Angela were great with my 4 year old dog. When I picked my dog up she was happy and tired out. I boarded my girl with them for 2 nights. Walter went out of his way to take my pup on adventures around the neighborhood, and to play her favorite game (chase and fetch). Walter sent a lovely video of my dog enjoying the safety of their super nice enclosed backyard while they played chase. He was also very responsive to my texts. My pup got so much love and attention while she stayed there. I will book with Walter again.”
“Ranah and Franki were amazing. They let us visit them before finalizing the booking so we knew if Lemon would be comfortable with them and their pet. They took great care of Lemon and took her everywhere with them. They sent us a lot of pictures and it looks like lemon actually had a great time this weekend! We’ll definitely be bringing Lemon to them again in the future.”

I’m very happy with the care Archie received. They always kept me updated, sent me messages and photos, and I really appreciated it. They were very caring and genuinely worried about Archie when he was anxious and didn’t want to eat. I could see that they really cared about him and tried their best to make him feel comfortable. I’m very grateful for everything they did for Archie.
We had such a wonderful experience Samantha! She was incredibly easy to communicate with from the very beginning, making the whole boarding process stress-free and well organized. She kept us updated throughout Lola's stay with lots of photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. I also really appreciated how respectful she was.. she always asked for our approval before doing anything and made sure we were comfortable with every decision. Her dog, Koda, is such a sweet and well-behaved boy. Lola is usually the type of dog who prefers being on her own, but I think she found a new best friend in Koda! It was so heartwarming to see them getting along so well. One of Lola's favorite parts was going swimming, and we loved that she got to enjoy activities she genuinely loves instead of just staying indoors. Her home is also in a fantastic location just right by a park and in a very pet-friendly building, so there are so many perks for dogs. It truly felt like Lola was treated like family while we were away. We couldn't have asked for better care and would absolutely trust her with Lola again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and thoughtful pet sitter. Thank you so much for taking such amazing care of our girl! ❤️
We had a wonderful experience with Allison! This was our first time leaving our 5 month old puppy Rory, with a sitter, so we were naturally a little nervous. Allison immediately put us at ease with her communication, and genuine love for dogs. She kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. Rory had an amazing time, and it was clear he absolutely loved spending time with Allison and her dog, Ollie. It was so heartwarming to hear that Ollie enjoyed Rory’s company too! Rory came home happy, well cared for, and clearly had a great day. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Allison again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and attentive pet sitter. Thank you again for taking such great care of Rory.
This was our first time booking over Rover so we were pretty apprehensive. Sara immediately made me feel better once I met her - her calm presence and her clear love for dogs. Allie had a great time with Sara playing with a couple of other dogs in the yard and with her sons. Sara kept in touch the entire time, sending pictures and videos and text messages letting us know how it was going. Great experience and would definitely book Sara again! Thanks Sara!!
We really appreciate Yeimy for taking care of our Puppy Milo.It was our first time leaving him for 2 nights and we are grateful we chose her coz Milo had so much fun and he felt he was with his 2nd home. We will surely get Yeimy again to take care of Milo if we will go on vacation.Thank you Yeimy ❤️
Second time using Fayza in less than two weeks, and once again she was fantastic! She was incredibly proactive, kept me updated throughout, and made the whole experience stress free. My little guy came back happy and well cared for. I’ll definitely be reaching out to Fayza again in the near future. Highly recommend!
Neelankshi took such great care of our chocolate lab Angus! Lots of walks and fetch + they took him to a beach a few times. Their dog Sissy and Angus became great friends. I would highly recommend her if you ever need boarding for your dog. Great communication. Great people.
It was my first time using Rover and I was very lucky to have found Xiaotao. She is an heaven sent, an angel, a saint. She was very kind and patient with my overly energetic labrador. She sent updates and pictures daily, which made me feel at ease. She even updated me on my dog’s poops. My dog was really spoiled at Xiaotao’s and I could tell from the pictures that my dog felt comfortable and calm with her very quickly, which is rare. I think she gets along really well with dogs because of her calm and patient demeanour. I would definitely book with her again and she would be my first choice every time. I cannot thank her enough for caring for my dog. She’s just wonderful.
Ran and Ishii bonded over his first stay with her. I was anxious as this was the 1st time Ishii was away from me for a long period of time. The daily messages, photos, and videos she sent made me feel reassured that Ishii was in good hands. I like how she’s knowledgeable, has deep understanding of dog care, and is empathetic. Ran and her husband cared for my fur baby with sincerity.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their New Westminster home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favourite hang-out spots in your New Westminster
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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 .
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 81% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
