“Jennifer and David were both very caring with our dog, Lucy. Lucy can be a bit anxious when meeting new people and other dogs and from the first introduction I felt they were a good fit for us. They were very sensitive and wanted to know what might be the best way to bring their dog Ruby out to meet Lucy. The introduction went great and when I later dropped Lucy off for daycare and she was feeling overwhelmed, Jennifer was quick to respond to her needs, helping her calm down with a walk. I left knowing Lucy was in good hands and the sweet pictures she sent me throughout the day showing Lucy cuddled up with her and David confirmed just that. I’ll definitely use their services again and would highly recommend them, especially if your dog struggles with anxiety or any other special need.”
“Olive enjoyed going on walks with Sheryl and loved sitting outside on her beautiful patio! Sheryl has a lot of experience with older dogs and was very attentive to Olive’s needs. We appreciated all she did to make Olive’s first stay as comfortable as possible.”
“Angela took really good care of Lily for the day. She did a great job at communicating with us through the whole process. We would have her look after Lily again.”

“Lucy is such a lovely person. Yoshi came back all tired out and happy. He had a fun time with lots of walks, play time and cozy naps. Lucy was very communicative and sent lots of photos. Will definitely book her again for the best time for Yoshi.”
“I had a great experience with Alejandra. She took perfect care of my 14 year old dog with no trouble. Smooth communication, very reassuring and caring! My pup is usually a little shy at first but Alejandra was so patient and sweet! I’m so glad I reached out to her to watch my boy! I would definitely recommend Alejandra to anyone that’s looking for a reliable pet sitter.”
“Ivan & Niamh were so very lovely, patient, and kind with my anxious and quirky pup Loki! We had an in depth meet n greet before his first stay, where they spent time getting to know Loki, it was abundantly clear that they both genuinely cared about his experience staying with them! Loki spent the day with them and had an amazing time - he came home tired ( = happy) and relaxed. Won’t hesitate to recommend them both and will 1000% be requesting their help taking care of my boy again in the future!! Thank you guys so much!”

“We had a wonderful experience with Setayesh! She took great care of our dog, Leeloo, and it was clear from the start that she truly loves and understands dogs. She was attentive, patient, and made sure Leeloo felt comfortable and happy during her time there. Communication was always easy and reliable, and we really appreciated the care and attention she put into making sure everything went smoothly. It gave us great peace of mind knowing Leeloo was in such good hands. We’re very grateful for all the care she has provided and would absolutely recommend Setayesh to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter. Thank you again for everything!”

Thank you so much for the great care you provided my pup, and I'll def be booking again!”
“Guy & Zol are very knowledgeable and diligent about the health, safety, and well-being of pups in their care. Easy to coordinate with, very caring and playful, they provide tons of pics, updates and reassurance that your pup is having a great day. Ella can’t wait to go back and slept for 4hrs straight after a day of fun, stimulation, cuddles and naps :) Highly recommend!”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Manada! She took amazing care of our dog, Mocha, and we could tell he was happy, comfortable, and well loved during his stay.

Ana watched my dog for the second time at her home for the evening while I hosted an event at my home. Juno was so happy to see her at drop off which was so comforting. I am thrilled to have met Ana and will definitely be reaching out any time I need care for my dog.
Graciela and Sarah-Marie did great with our 1 year old pup Marshall! They were very responsive and sent a lot of updates and photos of his time during day care. And although Marshall has a higher energy level, it was nice for him to have a friend with their cute pug!
We had such a wonderful experience with Manada! She took amazing care of our dog, Mocha, and we could tell he was happy, comfortable, and well loved during his stay. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such caring hands. Manada was kind, reliable, and kept us updated, which we really appreciated.

Thank you so much dear Fereshteh for accepting our last minute request and taking such good care of Kobe today. My little boy had a blast today playing with other dogs, going for multiple walks and coming home in such a great spirit! I highly recommend anyone using your service and will definitely come back. Your updates and messages throughout the day kept me in peace and feel so well connected throughout the entire time. Truly appreciate it.
Karli watched over my super anxious rescue pug who struggles with separation anxiety but Karli was understanding and patient with her and it wasn’t long until I was receiving updates of Kewpie snuggled up to her! Thanks Karli for providing Kewpie a safe place to snooze for the day.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - North Vancouver
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in North Vancouver on Rover is $38.85 per day (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Doggy Day Care 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 Doggy Day Care. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 2,317 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in North Vancouver. About 87% of North Vancouver 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.
Your dog’s first day care experience is a big milestone! To help your pup settle in comfortably, we recommend:
- Food and treats portioned for the day, with feeding instructions
- Your dog's leash and collar (ensure tags are up-to-date)
- Any seasonal gear, such as paw-safe wax for winter or a cooling vest for the summer
- Medication, if applicable, with clear dosage notes
- Any special care instructions or training tips to help your sitter provide the most personalized care possible
Tip: Upload this information directly through the Rover app before drop-off. The more context you provide, the better your sitter can tailor the day to your dog.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your North Vancouver commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
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 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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in BC ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines such as the DHPP or DA2PP, Rabies, and Bordetella.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 80% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 99% 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.
