“I have never used Rover as I am very particular about who watches our dogs and have regular dog sitters. We were in a pinch and needed someone which brought me to Rover. Marina was professional and wonderful with communication. She won my dogs over right away and left our home perfectly tidy. I felt completely comfortable having Marina in our home and I will definitely use her again! Highly recommend.”
“Eunix was great. She asked questions and followed the instructions provided. She gave me several updates through the day. I would recommend her to anyone lookig for house sitting. Leo was very happg when we came back.”
“We’ve hired Eunice twice now for house sitting and taking care of our two cats. She has built a bond with both of them. I feel so at ease when we are away because I know my two cats are enriched and well taken care of.”
“this was my first time leaving Lulu and i was very nervous about how it would go. watching my pup gravitate toward Angela made me feel everything would be okay. Angela was so good with Lulu and won her over with her gentle nature. i was very happy to get daily photos and video updates on their bonding process as it really put my mind at . Angela was very respectful of my living space as well, which was an added bonus. i would recommend Angela to anyone looking for a sitter, and would definitely contact her again in the future.”
“Veronika looked after Pippin for ten days over Christmas and New Years while we were out of the country, and we couldn't be happier with her professionalism, communication, and flexibility. We were anxious to find care for our dog after our initial holiday boarding arrangements fell through, and Veronika was incredibly understanding, easygoing, and kind! Veronika provided us with 'customized' care, and we were able to thoroughly enjoy our vacation knowing that Pippin was being exercised and adored by Veronika and her girls. Pippin developed a fantastic bond with Veronika while we were away, and we absolutely intend to book with Veronika again in the future!”
“Katrina and Tom are excellent pet sitters. They show such care and kindness to both the owners and the pet. They really take pride in doing the best possible job they can to make you and your pet feel comfortable and follow the instructions. You layout regarding any routines. They were fantastic with our 11 week old puppy and we would highly recommend them to anyone looking for help with their pet.”
“Daisy was so well cared for by Pavlina. She looked healthy and happy on our return. I think she is trimmer from all the walks!! We will definitely try to rebook Pavlina for future dog sitting! Thank you so much for your care of Daisy! Our vacation was worry free knowing she was in such good hands! The regular updates and pictures were perfect!”
“Breanna was great. She asked lots of good questions to better understand our styles and our dog dog's styles. Overall very conscious and thoughtful. Our Boxer (Mustard) got along well with Breanna. Would use Breanna again.”
“Brooke did a great job taking care of our dogs this weekend, she left the place clean and organized and the dogs were happy and healthy. She provides daily updates and photos which we really appreciate!”
“Haley is the BEST! Watched our dog and cat for 3 weeks while we were on our Honeymoon in a completely different time zone and she was always responsive, sent pics, and cleaned up the place before leaving. Absolute best dog/cat sitter ever.”
“Riley watched Archie in our home for over two weeks over Christmas. We were travelling abroad and it was a huge relief having Riley house sit. She was amazing with Archie. Riley stuck to his schedule so he could have a normal routine. She was great at communicating even though we were in different time zones. I have used Riley before and would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and consistent sitter.”
“Lily was super responsive and easy to arrange the stay. She did great with our reactive and anxious dog. She was confident and capable giving multiple medications and of course giving lots of love to our pups while we were gone.”
“Miranda was awesome - she took care of my high maintenance puppy and my cat for a week and I didn’t worry about a thing! She was super responsive when contacting her, and shared several pictures of my babies throughout her stay. Would definitely recommend Miranda!”
“Isobel was lovely and took really great care of our dog for the day. My dog can be anxious and reactive and Isobel knew how to manage her in a way that felt comfortable and safe. My dog seemed to love her and felt so calm around her. Isobel also made sure to keep us calm and sent cute pictures 😊 This dog sitting turn out to be much less convenient for Isobel than intended, and I know she went through a lot of trouble to keep the booking and not cancel on us. This really shows how reliable she is and we appreciate it! Thank you so much! Would definitely book again.”
“Anna & Vlad took care of our 2 miniature dachshunds recently for a week and did a fantastic job. They were well taken care of, kept comfortable and content in our home and cuddled every day. Anna provides informative daily updates including photos and was diligent in understanding routines and schedules so they could be maintained. They are a lovely couple who I trust completely in my home and with our fur babies.”
“Monet was great with our two cats who both need medications and lots of attention! She sent updates and photos while we were away. We appreciated how clean our place was when we returned home and the cats were super relaxed. Would love to have her cat sit again!”
“It was so great to see Han again! They remembered everything from before and Finn was so happy to see them again. When we came home Finn was relaxed and happy. We will definitely be reaching out again soon!”
“Debbie was fantastic watching our two high energy cattle dog mixes for three weeks while we were away. The dogs absolutely loved her and she provided us great updates with photos every day. She left the house clean and was very responsive to all of our messages. We would recommend her and would be happy to have her care for our dogs again in the future!”
“Nicole took wonderful care of Maple and Canela over the long weekend. They were so well looked after, and it was clear they had company and attention the entire time, which gave us great peace of mind. She kept us updated, was easy to communicate with, and genuinely cared about making sure they were happy and comfortable. We came home to two relaxed and happy dogs, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. We highly recommend Nicole to anyone looking for a caring, reliable pet sitter, and we would absolutely trust her with Maple and Canela again. Thank you, Nicole!”

Petra came to our rescue at the last minute, and did a great job looking after our energetic one year old husky for the evening. Petra was skilled at providing enrichment and outlets for our dog’s energy, as well as helping our pup to settle and calm. She was responsive and sent wonderful updates. Our dog looked happy and calm when we returned home. I would definitely reach out to Petra again! :)
Eva recently house/pet sat for my cat Cookie for 3 weeks. She was very responsive before and during my absence. She also sent photos and videos regularly and my apartment was well cared for. She left flowers and some pick-me-ups for me from my long travels. Thank you Eva, I appreciated your support. So did Cookie 🐱.
Marina was absolutely wonderful! She went above and beyond to take great care of our dog and our home. She kept everything clean and tidy, sent us plenty of updates, and made sure our dog got lots of exercise, attention, and love. We felt completely at ease knowing our dog was so well cared for while we were away. We would highly recommend Marina and would absolutely have her stay with our dog again!
I honestly cannot recommend Quinn enough. We are quite picky about who we trust to stay in our home and look after our dogs, so we honestly weren’t sure if we would ever find someone we felt completely comfortable leaving them with. Quinn completely blew us away. This was the first time we’ve ever left our dogs with someone and felt like we could actually relax and not worry about how our babies were doing. We received so many updates and photos throughout the few days, which gave us so much peace of mind and made us feel completely reassured that our dogs were happy, comfortable, and very well cared for. Quinn stayed at our house and took such amazing care of both our dogs. When we got home, our dogs were so excited to see us, and it was obvious they had been incredibly happy and well cared for while we were away. Quinn also went above and beyond by cleaning our entire house before we got home, which was such an incredibly thoughtful and unexpected bonus. Quinn was trustworthy, attentive, communicative, and clearly genuinely loves dogs. We came home to two very happy pups and a spotless house, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We seriously cannot recommend Quinn enough and would absolutely have Quinn stay with our dogs again. If you’re looking for someone you can completely trust with your pets, Quinn is the person you want!
Valerie is a responsible, reliable pet sitter who I would book again to look after our pets. She set up an initial, timely meet and greet and asked relevant questions about the pets and their care. The apartment was left very tidy and the litter box scooped. The dog did not want to see her new friend go and pulled on the leash to run after her to get one more pat!
Stephanie was great with my senior girl. I was very happy to know she was in such capable and caring hands. She followed up regularly with updates. Stephanie looked after my home exceptionally well. It was in better condition than when I departed. I have already booked my next home sitting service with her.
Christine took excellent care of our labradoodle, Archie, for a week while we were away. This was our first time leaving him for more than an overnight, so we were a little nervous about how he would be, but Christine took great care of him, and sent us lots of photos of him while we were away. Christine stayed in our home with Archie while we were on our trip, and she left it very clean and tidy, and even watered our plants for us. She was friendly, reliable and an excellent communicator, and we wouldn't hesitate to have her dog and house-sit for us again.
Heather took excellent care of our rescue dog Freya as well as our 2 cats while we were away on vacation for 2 weeks. We spent 2 months getting to know Heather before we left which helped set our anxious dog up for success. What a great fit - I could tell from our daily updates and photos that our pets were doing very well and we came home to a clean home and happy pets. I will be reaching out to Heather first next time we go away, this was a wonderful experience!
Ella was so great with our 2 dogs. She came for a meet and greet prior to her dog sitting. One of our dogs is a bit nervous when he meets people but took to Ella straight away. She sent us lots of updates and photos which was fun and reassuring. Highly recommend her and will def. Use her again.

FAQs for House Sitting - North Vancouver
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in North Vancouver on Rover is $62.16 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in North Vancouver maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Garbage & recycling: Taking garbage bins to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred North Vancouver walking routes, the location of your favourite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
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 North Vancouver 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!
You can find what you need to review a sitter on their profile before booking with them. Each sitters’s profile on Rover shows verified reviews, identity check, and ratings to give a glimpse of how their previous visits went. You can also use the Meet & Greet to walk through your home, identifying which areas, like your bedroom, are off-limits or not. Requesting details of your home security through the app can also be a good way to have your sitter keep you updated about your home.
If you have security cameras or doorbells, Rover asks that you disclose them to sitters before you book.
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.
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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
