“Sichen took amazing care of my cat, Waffle! She spent lots of time cuddling and playing with her and sent tons of pictures! I would absolutely book Sichen again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible caretaker for their pet.”

“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!”

“Alexis communicated well and our puppy loved spending time with her. She was easy to schedule with and very flexible. It helps to know that someone who cares is coming for our puppy visits. We would book Alexis again!”

“Our second time having Amanda care for our two cats went perfectly! We loved the thorough update + cat photos detailing her drop-in visit and greatly appreciated Amanda's expertise in administering pet medication as one of our cats has required pills both times we've been out of town. Both of our temperamental fur babies have taken to Amanda so quickly and my partner and I couldn't be happier! 🥳”

“Phatthawipha did a great job taking care of our two cats while we were out of town for the weekend. She dropped by twice daily to feed and care for the cats. She kept us updated throughout and sent lovely photos. She clearly spent time petting them and giving them attention. Thank you!”

“Ashely was wonderful! We left a ton of instructions for our need cat and she did such a great job listening and following, but also adapting where needed. We would recommend Ashley to anyone in need of a cat sitter!”

About: Some of my earliest experiences with dogs apart from my own puppers, were as a child and into my teens my dad trained Guard/Security dogs. So the house was always filled with dogs newly being trained. Currently the only dogs in my life are my moms specially trained service dog that can detect MS attacks and my Boy Achilles who will soon be working with me to train other dogs for basic obedience. I also cared for my 19 year old cat named Tigger who now lives with my Grandparents. Tigger while in my care needed regular oral medication along side continual and constant monitoring of day to day activity. My schedule is open 7 days a week from 6:00-22:00 for Drop ins and Walks. Private sessions must be scheduled in advance. Group Hikes are not yet scheduled When in my care, I treat every dog and cat as my own. Similarly I respect your home by ensuring clean up of your dog or cat. No muddy paws on your sofa or wet dogs running through your house I am available for Drop-in visits and Walks from 6am to 10pm Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. 9am to 5pm Sundays. Outside hours service can be requested with advanced notice. I care for each Dog and Cat as my own and ensure the safety of your pets as much as I ensure their enjoyment and comfortablilty in my home or yours!
“We couldn’t be happier with the care Jody provided for our cat. She was incredibly attentive and truly went above and beyond while we were away. It was clear from the start that she’s a genuine animal lover, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing our cat was in such great hands. Jody was thoughtful, reliable, and caring throughout, and we would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate cat sitter. We will absolutely be using her again for all our future cat-sitting needs.”

About: Hello! My name is Claire. I'm a full time professional dog handler with 15 years experience. I started working with dogs volunteering with the Pacific Assistance Dog Society (PADS), fostering and training service dog puppies. This led to a lifelong love of working with dogs, starting in dog daycares, where I learned from established positive reinforcement dog trainers. Now, I have had my own small dog walking business for the past 8 years in Montreal, Claire's Canines. I have volunteered with the Montreal SPCA and Gerdys Dog Rescue working with reactive and aggressive pups, a lot of whom had never been handled by a human or been on leash before. I use positive reinforcement exclusively; I don't use any adverse training tools such as prong colors or e-collars. I am currently in training to be a trainer, and I love working on behavioral goals. I am happy and comfortable using muzzles and halties. I always have high value treats with me to reinforce leash, walking and social skills. Let me know if your pup has any allergies and we can tailor the treats to them. Born and raised in North Vancouver, I love taking pups on hikes or for a swim at a dog-friendly beach. Whether your dog prefers an urban adventure or a forest walk, finding the best type of enrichment for them is the goal. For puppies or older pups, this can look like exploring scent trails and doing brain games, or playing with a favorite toy. Combining physical exercise with mental enrichment will set your pup up for success to be their best self, and is the first step with any behavioral issues. If it sounds like I would be a good fit for you and your pup, please get in touch to set up a free meet and greet. Looking forward to it! Dog walking is my only job, and I am flexible with my schedule. I am happy to walk morning, afternoon or evening, I'm sure we can find something that works! A big part of making your pup feel comfortable is keeping to their schedule, so I stick to their established routine as closely as possible. I personally love hiking and long walks, and as they say, a tired pup is a happy pup. This will mean something different for every pup, so we can go over their day-to-day in detail during our meet and greet. Comfortable administering any medication needed, light grooming and keeping up any obedience training. I'm certified in pet first aid through Walks n' Wags, which I continue to keep updated. I have a pet first aid kit on my person for all dog walks and forest adventures. I'm a very experienced dog and house sitter, happy to provide lots of additional references from my walking clients in Montreal.

About: I grew up with a variety of animals including cats, horses and dogs. I have two dogs of my own - Cinnamon & Alfie. We love to cuddle, go for walks and adventures throughout the city. I regularly go for hikes & long walks and would love to have your dog join me. I have worked with both human and dog reactive dogs including my own dog, Cinnamon so I'm well versed in how to ensure they're safe and comfortable on walks. I have worked with a few dogs through training courses using positive reinforcement and would be happy to work with you and your best friend to continue to build their training while you're away. I'm comfortable administering medication as needed and feeding both raw and kibble foods to ensure your pet continues with their routine while you're away. I love to send regular updates & pictures to assure that you know everything that your pet is getting up to! I understand how important your pet is to you and want to make sure that both you and your dog get the best out of your time away. I'm currently taking a step back from my career in marketing and have an open schedule to take care of your pets outside of ensuring my dogs are still able to be taken care of which is why I offer drop in visits or walks but no longer offer house sitting services. I like to have a comprehensive understanding of your dogs regular routine, any allergies and what you're currently working on together so that I can continue with that training and care while you're away.
About: I grew up with 20 dogs and 3 cats. I currently have a cat and special needs dog. I love animals. I am more of a pet person than people person. I’m a full-time student looking for work. I am available everyday because i only have classes on Wednesdays. I am also flexible and on-call. I can give baths. I can go to the clients’ house because I do not have the space. My cat also does not like new people. I love meeting new pets!
About: With 10 years of hands-on pet care experience, I offer more than just pet sitting—I bring a deep understanding of animal behaviour, enrichment, and welfare. As a professional wildlife educator and lifelong animal enthusiast, I’ve worked with everything from household pets to exotic species, developing a calm, attentive approach tailored to each animal’s unique personality and needs. Whether your pet loves adventure, playtime, or quiet companionship, I provide reliable, knowledgeable care that keeps them happy, healthy, and stress-free while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily life. As a work-from-home entrepreneur, I have the flexibility to set my own schedule and structure my days around the needs of the animals in my care. This means pets receive plenty of attention, regular bathroom breaks, exercise, enrichment, and companionship throughout the day rather than being left alone for long periods. I’m also an avid outdoor enthusiast who enjoys walking, hiking, and exploring local parks and trails. For active dogs, that means plenty of opportunities for adventure and exercise. For pets who prefer a slower pace, I’m equally happy providing calm companionship, playtime, and routine-focused care at home. Because I work independently, I can adapt my schedule to maintain consistency with your pet’s existing routines, helping them feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for while you’re away. I have a large 2 bedroom apartment with covered balcony space and an accompanying studio space in the building next door, meaning lots of enriched indoor space dedicated for the care of your pet (or pets if you have multiple). I live within a 5 min walk of off leash dog parks, beach front trails and Stanley park. My home is a haven for a variety of pets with a focus on enrichment toys and puzzles for dogs and cats
About: I've had two labs, a pom, and italian greyhound/min pin mix so I'm experienced walking and caring for dogs of all sizes. I have dog sat for many friends and family and would love to help you with yours! I work from home and have a flexible schedule so it's easy for me to pop in and out to care for your furry family members! I'll treat your home like mine and clean up messes that I see. I'll make sure your pet is safe and cared for and communicate any concerns I have immediately.

“Blake and Carly did a fantastic job looking after our senior cat for an extended long weekend. It was great to have peace of mind knowing that she was in good hands and be able to fully enjoy our vacation! We will definitely book them again.”

“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 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.
“Jessica was trustworthy and took good care to feed my cats on time and play with them. However, one of my cats’ litter box wasn’t cleaned in what looked like 2-3 days at least. Despite having discussed that it was to be done daily. Luckily my cat is fine but this was a hygiene and safety issue that could’ve made her sick and stressed. Overall a good experience but this litter issue was not acceptable.”

“Great visits by Ran 2 days per week and twice per day. Ari really loves her visits and playtime. They play fetch the ball and soccer which is his passion. She also feeds him, a very picky eater, and he loves it. She keeps him nicely exercised and makes things easier for all of us. Thanks Ran - really appreciate your TLC for our little guy !!!”

Phatthawipha was incredible when she took care of my cats. She made sure to follow the directions I left perfectly and was always prompt and on time with her daily check-in updates and sharing photos and video clips to show my cats were doing well and comfortable with their routine. She is very kind and respectful and I would definitely hire her again to take care of my pets :)

Jody is FABULOUS! If you have a cat, you want Jody taking care of them. It's such a relief to travel and know my boy is with someone I trust who treats him like the princess he is. Jody always sends great photos and thorough updates. Will be using her for the rest of time

Stella is extremely trustworthy. I needed help with my cat's insulin injections while I was working night shifts, and she really eased my mind. Taking care of a diabetic cat isn't easy, but Stella is patient, caring, and communicates really well. I felt comfortable leaving my cat in her hands and truly appreciated all her help. Highly recommended!

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!

Will definitely book her for the next time! Strongly recommend her be your cat sitter as she’s careful, thoughtful, caring and friendly. She’s very responsive and responsible. She sent me pictures which showed my baby was enjoying playing with her. She also did some light cleaning work for my baby which I appreciate a lot!

Justine did a great job taking care of my kitties while I was away. I felt confident that they were safe and happy during her visits. She is a fantastic communicator and sent lots of great photos and updates during each of her visits. I definitely recommend her and will book with her again if I go on another trip :)

Jorge is absolutely wonderful! From the very first moment, Jorge made us feel completely at ease leaving our two cats in his care. He took the time to do a pre-visit to meet our cats and get to know us, something that truly showed his professionalism and dedication. He explained exactly how he works, and his calm, peaceful, and respectful demeanor was immediately reassuring. What really stood out is that he sent us photos of our cats every single day. Knowing they were happy and well cared for gave us so much peace of mind. We came back to two very content kitties! We couldn’t recommend Jorge more highly, he genuinely loves animals and it shows. We’ll absolutely be booking with him again! 🐱

Once again Blake and Carly did an amazing job, we had an issue with one of our cats right before we left and they kept us updated and how our cats were doing every visit. Our 2nd time with Blake and Carly and they are just amazing. Always on-time, friendly with our 2 kitties and they go above and beyond. Thank you both so much.
