“Sichen took amazing care of Jasper while we were away. It was clear he loved her visits, and it gave us so much peace of mind being able to communicate easily and see all the photos and videos she shared. Thank you so much Sichen!”
“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!”
“It was a joy to have Amanda care for our two cats over Christmas. After meeting with her before our trip, my partner and I both felt as though our pets were in very capable, responsible, and caring hands. Recieving updates during her drop-in visits was wonderful and our cats took to her very quickly (something they don't typically do!). Amanda will absolutely be our first choice to care for our cats in the future!”
“Phatthawipha was excellent when she looked after my 2 cats this weekend. She ensured to follow the instructions and updated me with all the details of my cats along with some great pictures. This was my 1st time experience with her but I am definitely contacting her again in the future. Thank you so much Phatthawipha ❤️?”
“Sheila was a wonderful sitter for our cat Kiki! We appreciated her attention to detail and her dedication to providing personalized care for Kiki. We also really loved the photos and videos she sent each day. She was very responsive to messages and was quick to inform us of any concerns. Her and Kiki had great rapport by the end of our booking :) We would highly recommend her!”
“We highly recommend Jody for sitting services. We came back from our wedding and honeymoon to happy cats and clean orderly home. We really appreciated the love and respect she showed while watching our fur babies. 10/10.”
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: 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.
“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!”

“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: Hi! I am Beatrix and huge animal lover. I'm here to provide your dog with plenty of walks, sniffing and playing. I have over 20 years of experience with dogs. Me and my family have fostered many dogs from several dog rescues in Hungary and I worked 3 years in a general animal rescue in Hungary and in France. I will board a maximum 1-2 dogs at a time as I wasn't to ensure your dog gets their own 1-2-1 attention with me. I like to keep you regularly updated with pictures and videos of your doggo via WhatsApp or Messenger, as you prefer. I take them on enclosed paddock walks and runs.

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.
“Brook was very diligent when taking care of our older cat with medical needs. I appreciated her communication, the amount of pictures she sent and the long visits with Frankie. I was nervous about letting a stranger into our home and taking care of our cat, but she set me at ease. I will not hesitate to book her again!”

Sheila was a wonderful sitter for our cat Kiki! We appreciated her attention to detail and her dedication to providing personalized care for Kiki. We also really loved the photos and videos she sent each day. She was very responsive to messages and was quick to inform us of any concerns. Her and Kiki had great rapport by the end of our booking :) We would highly recommend her!
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! 🐱

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in New Westminster on Rover is $25.68 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 4,538 sitters on Rover for Pet Sitting in New Westminster. About 85% of New Westminster sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or travelling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer poop breaks during a New Westminster stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover based on what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
You can coordinate how much supervision you want directly with your sitter. While every sitter’s schedule varies, here are some examples of supervision by pet care service:
- Boarding or doggy day care: Many sitters can provide frequent companionship because they design their day specifically around the pets in their care or work from home.
- House sitting: Your sitter generally stays in your home for the requested duration, which may include overnight care. They may step out briefly to visit other pet clients, but your home remains their primary base.
- Drop-in visits or dog walking: These can be scheduled in 30- or 60-minute windows (and can be shorter or longer at your request) to help your pet receive dedicated attention and care during those specific times.
Interested in constant or 24/7 care? This service often incurs an additional fee but many sitters are happy to discuss this option with you.
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 New Westminster 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!
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a veterinary professional or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means Rover Support will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:

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.
