About: I've raised my dog since he was a puppy and have learned a lot along the way!~ I treat every dog like my own, and provide the right structure and leadership for an enjoyable and productive walk. I work odd hours so I can be flexible during the day and evening. I love to walk and am outside as much as I can be. Getting to know your dog and their needs is my top priority. Its important to build trust and a relationship so that your dog is happy on our walk. I'm good at communicating to you and above all, listening to how you need your dog taken care of.
“AMAZING! Reliable, attentive, and great communication. I was given constant updates, photos and videos so I always felt Tofu was in great hands. I would definitely book again.”

“My cat liked Leilani right away. Leilani was able to trim Darla's claws, which Darla rarely lets people do. All round a good experience. I will definitely hire Leilani again.”

About: I’ve been a dog and cat sitter for several years, caring for pets consistently through both short visits and longer stays. I’m comfortable adapting to different personalities, routines, and needs, and I’m especially patient and attentive with senior pets or animals who need a little extra care and reassurance (such as puffers and special medication). I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while their owners are away. What sets me apart is my flexibility, reliability, and genuine love for animals—I’m happy to work around their routine and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I’m currently working as a filmmaker, which keeps me busy with different projects throughout the year. My schedule can fluctuate depending on the stage of a production, but I also work from home quite often, which gives me a fair amount of flexibility during the day. I’m looking for something that allows me to make good use of that flexibility, while also getting me out of the house and doing something I genuinely enjoy. I always try to keep pets comfortable by following their normal routines as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and make sure their pet feels safe and cared for in their familiar environment. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are happy and in good hands.
“Diane is awesome! She was so nice and caring for little Louie. She really came to the rescue after another rover person bailed multiple times. Diane went above and beyond and excited to be able to have her for Louie's puppy sitter.”

About: I lived with pets since I was a baby, I love being around animals, it’s like therapy for me. I currently work as a Project Manager 100% remotely and I am not allowed to have pets in my current apartment. I take long walks during my work day and being able to interact with a dog during my walks would be the ideal scenario. I recently lost my pet bunny and I deeply miss having a pet in my daily life. If I could take your dog for a walk, be assured they will have the best time and I know how important they are in our lives and I will make sure they are very well taken care of I work from home 100% of the time. I can go for a walk with your puppy anytime! I loved taking long walks and I will make sure your fur baby has the best time. Right now I am not accepting dogs in my house, but if you need a drop in to check on your pet I will make sure to follow your instructions and ensure your baby has everything they need. Your house is your sacred space and I will respect it.
About: What sets me apart is the genuine care, patience, and attention I give every pet. Having grown up with dogs my entire life, I understand that pets are family, and I treat them with the same love and respect I'd want for my own. I also have experience caring for pets with special needs. Two of my family dogs were diabetic, so I'm familiar with maintaining consistent routines, monitoring their well-being, and understanding the importance of following care instructions carefully. I've also cared for a cat with digestive issues, ensuring they received the proper food and routine to keep them comfortable and healthy. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work part-time from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide consistent care, regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of companionship throughout the day. My schedule allows me to adapt to your pet's routine, whether that means early morning walks, midday check-ins, evening cuddles, or overnight care. I'm an early riser as well. I provide fresh food and water, regular walks and playtime, lots of affection, and I'm happy to administer medications or follow specific feeding routines if needed. Having cared for diabetic dogs and a cat with digestive issues, I understand the importance of consistency and paying close attention to a pet's health and behavior.

About: I have taken care of dogs starting with my puppy about 15 years ago. Kilo was a puppy rottweiler and I rescued him from a potential life of dog fighting. From that day on Kilo was my best friend and companion in everything from work, to school, and home. I learned a lot from my time with Kilo about proper training and pet care, as well as the patience it takes to be a caring sitter. After Kilo I helped my sisters with training and exercising their big dogs (Pitty, and Husky) as well as attending therapy dog training with my partners 2 dogs (Havanese). I am comfortable with administering oral and topical medications, and know about various training and developmental theories for dogs. I cannot wait to meet your and your pets! I am currently working freelance and I have a lot of free time to spend with your wonderful pets. When I do have a gig I am generally only out of the house for 5-6 hours max. I will follow all your routines and guidelines as stated, while also making sure to tire them out so they dont have any anxiety while you're gone.
About: Since I was a 7 I used to have pets I took care of them, also I took care of my friends and family pets. My father has a farm and I learned to love, feed and take care of the other animals.

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 10, when my father took home a puppy rottweiler. I live with my family who love pets as well, but we do not have one of our own. We are able to feed and walk dogs. We lived for 8 months with a dog whose mommy went visit her home country. We treat her and love her as our own, just until her mom came back.

About: Hi my name is Leah I am 25 years old. I took a few years break from rover however I am looking for some part time work while I’m on summer break as a teacher. I absolutely love both cats and dogs so this is the perfect job for me. I’m also a people person as well, so I cannot wait to meet so many friendly people such as you! I have owned multiple cats in the past and one beautiful dog. I currently have two cats named Mars Bar and Poptart! I know how to do the work everyone loves when looking after pets such as giving them love and attention, but I also know how to do the dirty work such as cleaning up accidents and changing the litter. Would love to help some of you out by taking care of your fur babies when needed :) I am currently on summer break as I am a teacher on call from September to June! My schedule is very flexible and most mornings / afternoons are free. I always try to present myself as a calm presence when meeting new animals. I let them come to me and sniff me out until they show me they are ready for some pets!
About: I've been taking care of pets since I was 12. Always had dogs at home and always took care of their exercises and food routine and their not much-desired bath and hygiene needs. I had senior pets who needed medicines and extra care as well. Since 2016, I and my partner have been members of a well-known NGO in Brazil for rescue and animal welfare, so we are both knowledgeable about different cats' and dogs' behavior and needs. We rescued our cute little Simba in 2017 and he's been our best friend since then. In early 2025 we adopted Maple and he adapted greatly to our family. He is a sweet lazy boy that loves to sun bath at our balcony! Simba and Maple have always received other cats at home and welcomes then, turning always into best friends. Both me and my husband are home almost all the time and we love to spend time with the pets under our care. We also have Simba, our cat, who is super friendly. We live in an apartment on the second floor. I don't allow cats to go out, so they are always safe inside and allowed to take sun baths and fresh air in the balcony with me. I understand how important is the cat routine, so I always keep their schedules for eating and other needs. When pet-sitting in your place, I'll always be respectful of the routine and the house rules and always careful when the cat needs to stay inside. I can also take a look at your plants!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - New Westminster
I couldn't be happier with Joey's service! She was punctual, attentive, and genuinely cared about my dog. She followed all my instructions, sent thoughtful updates with photos, and made sure Mikie was comfortable and happy. It's obvious she loves animals, and I felt completely confident leaving my pets in her care. I highly recommend Joey and will absolutely be booking her again.
Really appreciated Nasrin helping take Brandy out and spending time with her on a day I was away all day. She provided photos, a video and an update on how the visit went. Brandy is a shy girl but is really taking to Nasrin so looking forward to having her help again in the near future!

Justine has been super communicative and I feel very confident leaving Otter with her! I love the peace of mind that comes from knowing she has her dog first aid, and she is just lovely to interact with all around. Definitely plan to continue working with her!!

We were very lucky to find Liudmila and Igor when we needed a sitter for our foster dog last minute. They were quick to respond and easy to communicate with. Most importantly, they took great care of our foster dog (who is high needs) and clearly have a lot of experience with and love for dogs. We would be happy to have them care for our dog again!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5-Star Rover Review for Alexis Alexis has been absolutely wonderful with my Korean Jindo, who is a nervous rescue and takes time to warm up to new people. From the very beginning, she showed so much patience, kindness, and understanding of his needs. Her gentle approach helped him feel safe and comfortable, which means the world to me. Alexis communicates clearly after every visit with thoughtful updates and pictures, so I always know how he’s doing. She’s also incredibly reliable and consistent—someone I feel completely confident trusting with my dog. I highly recommend Alexis to anyone looking for a compassionate, patient, and dependable dog walker. She’s truly been a blessing for us!

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.
