“Claire took such great care of my cat! She gave me daily updates, lots of photos/videos, and took the time to meet with him before I left so my cat can get to know her. I felt at ease leaving him in her care, and he looked relaxed and happy when I returned home. She was respectful of my home and left it nice and tidy, and was really great with communication. I appreciated her flexibility and her accommodation throughout the process. Would recommend Claire!”

“Sichen was absolutely wonderful! She cared for my cat as if it were her own—kind, attentive, and loving. She was also very flexible and understanding, even accommodating some last-minute requests without any hesitation. I felt completely at ease knowing my cat was in such good hands. I’ll definitely be booking with her again for future cat sitting!”

About: Hi! We are Igor and Liuda, a couple of a dog lovers. We’ve both grown up with dogs and have always had them in our lives. Right now, as we’re settling into our new life in Canada, we don’t have a pup of our own just yet—but we truly miss that connection. That’s why we’re excited to care for your furry friend and give them all the love and attention they deserve while you're away or busy. I’ve worked as a canine coach at a dog daycare, which gave me hands-on experience with dogs of all breeds, ages, and personalities. Whether it’s helping to train a puppy or providing extra care to a senior dog, I tailor my approach to each dog’s needs. Igor also worked as a canine coach and Rover sitter, and he has a calm, caring nature that dogs—especially older ones—respond well to. We’re both active and love hiking, so if your dog enjoys being outdoors, they can join us on fun, scenic walks that provide both exercise and mental stimulation. At home, we take joy in daily care—brushing, bathing, playing, and regular walks—making sure your dog feels happy, comfortable, and loved like a member of the family. Pet care fits perfectly into our routine, as we're available from 4 pm on Fridays to Monday evening. We provide regular walks, playtime as well as feeding routine( food provided by pet parents to not disturb the diet) and necessary limmited medical manipulations (pills, ointments and cleaning teeth), ensuring your dog receives consistent care and attention throughout the weekend. Our flexible schedule and love for dogs make us a great fit for your pet’s needs. In our non-smoking studio apartment with AC for hot days, your dog will never be unattended, ensuring they receive constant care and attention. We're located near several dog parks and the New Westminster Quay for outdoor play and exercise. We provide treats (discussed for allergies), peanut butter, licking mats, bowls, Kongs, and bedding for comfort. We also accept non-spayed and non-neutered dogs. Additionally, we don't have other pets or children, so your dog will enjoy a calm and focused environment. We also love taking pictures and making videos of dogs to keep you updated and provide regular reports on their activities and well-being.
“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!”

“Karla did a wonderful job taking care of Sailor. She communicated well and provided daily photos and updates, and made sure Sailor received her medication each day. I’ll definitely ask Karla to look after Sailor again in the future.”

About: Animals are truly the center of my world. I’ve lived with them all my life and have had the joy of caring for two cats and four dogs as an adult.

“We met with Michelle last week regarding using her services to look after our pup. Michelle was punctual, personable and professional. Look forward to having her look after our pup in the futuer.”

About: I've been caring for multiple dogs and cats for my entire life! Currently I have 3 cats of my own they are the light of my life and I miss having daily dog interactions so much! I would love to visit, play with, walk, and love your dog(s) and cat(s). I also have experience caring for rodents such as guinea pigs and rabbits, as well as professional experience caring for fish and snakes. I have lots of availability right now as I wait for school to start again in the fall!! I currently have nothing but time to offer the pets in my life. Because my small apartment is already full of 3 cats with big personalities, I don't currently have the option to bring your pet into my home. However I am happy to come to you for visits, walks, and homestays! I will always respect your space by heeding directions and leaving it as I found it.
About: I’ve had various pets throughout my life and truly enjoy the companionship they bring. I love training animals in a playful and positive way, while keeping a calm and structured home environment with clear rules. I enjoy long walks and exercising with pets outdoors—rain or shine! Your pet’s comfort and well-being are my top priorities. I provide a dedicated spot for meals and water, regular grooming, and lots of love and care. Cleanliness and routine are important to me, and I make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and at home. Feel free to reach out anytime—I’d love to meet you and your furry friend! I walk my own pup 2–3 times a day—usually a fun game of fetch in the morning and a long, relaxing walk in the evening. I love being outdoors and making sure pets get plenty of exercise, attention, and affection. I will be glad to show you my apartment and provide you with daily photos or a video call. I am also willing to verify my identity. One important rule: I need to meet your pet beforehand in order to agree to boarding. Sometimes personalities don’t match, and some dogs are not well trained.

“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.”

“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: I have two dogs of my own - a four year old owner-trained service husky and a 2 year old silly bean chihuahua. They do not join me for my sitting or walking as I prefer having one-on-one time with your pet. I am a student of pure positive/R+/Positive Reinforcement training and I come with my own treats! (Owner permission for treat sharing required). My goal is to help your family (human and furry) a stress free day helping you keep peace of mind, and helping your pets through your time away. I am currently working from home as a freelancer this gives me a great deal of flexibility to check in on your furry friends. I can also spend nights away from my dogs as my partner is more than capable of caring for them without me for short times. I am coming to you to care for your pets. This way I can help them keep to their routines and help them feel secure in their environment. I work with you on their needs and wants so they get the best care I can offer.
“Amazing with my senior golden, Bruna really knows how to work with dogs, especially those dogs with special needs like reactivity… She has attention to detail and genuine care for the dog”

About: I have loved taking care of animals ever since I was a child. I grew up with two dogs, and they sparked my passion for animal care from an early age. Currently, I work for a company that specializes in caring for animals during layovers and boarding at the airport. This job allows me to ensure that pets are safe, comfortable, and stress-free while they travel. Being able to support animals in this unique environment is incredibly rewarding, and I am committed to treating every animal with kindness, patience, and the same love I’ve always had for my own pets. I’m currently studying and working part-time in Vancouver. I have plenty of spare time for taking care of your family. Availability is depends on the week and days. I offer both dog walking and overnight stays, and always make sure pets feel safe, happy, and loved. I stick to their usual routine, give them plenty of playtime and attention, and tailor care to their individual needs. Whether at my home or theirs, I treat every pet like family.

This schedule allows me to give your pet lots of attention and care throughout the day. Here's a typical day: Morning walk: 7:00-7:30 am for about 15 minutes around the neighborhood.

I’m also available for overnight pet sitting on weekdays and have flexible hours on weekends, so your pet will always be well cared for. I would care for your dog in our spacious 3-bedroom apartment.

I have small fenced patios with grass areas where your dog will be welcome to relax. When outside, your dog will be on a leash unless we’re in a fenced dog park, ensuring they’re always safe and secure.
“Nicole did a wonderful job with my kitty! My cat is older but came from a shelter and isn't great with new humans! But Nicole followed all the instructions with care and thoughtfulness, and more importantly paid attention to the cat's signals! Her reports and photos showed the care she was taking with a difficult animal. Your companion critters are in excellent hands with Nicole!”

Cassandra was amazing, and was able to help me out last minute with an honestly complicated routine. My cat Alex is normally very shy around strangers, but with Cassandra she was super cooperative and friendly. At our meet and greet she took careful notes to make sure every bit of the routine was correct, and was very gentle with approaching them and petting them, and even after one visit they were comfortable with her. Cassandra did a perfect job, and I would highly recommend her.

Renee was fantastic with my cats! I was nervous about traveling, but she made sure that both my cats had their needs met and kept me informed. Prior to the visit, she asked plenty of questions to make sure she was taking proper care of them. They are happy and healthy, no complaints at all. Renee will be my top choice next time I am away!
Mercedes was wonderful to work with and took great care of our pups! As a first-time user of Rover, she guided us through the process and helped answer any questions. She also took the time to visit our home and meet our dogs before our scheduled booking. While watching our two dogs, Mercedes provided pictures, videos, and updates. She even took our dogs to a trick-or-treat event at our local pet store and collected free samples for us. She has great communication and was very accommodating to our specific needs. Highly recommend!

Madeline was great with my dog Marshall! She takes the time to ask all of the right questions and meet your dog prior to her visits. You can tell she is a natural with dogs and my dog really enjoyed his walks with her. She sends updates and photos on how your dog did on their walk. Madeline is someone you can fully trust with your pet!
