“This is the 2nd time Angela looked after my pets, a dog and a cat. Highly recommend Angela as she takes very good care of them and sends me daily updates with pictures.”
“Marina is a true dog lover who cares deeply about your pet. Our pup Baker had an amazing day with her -he came home tuckered out and so happy. It gave me such peace of mind knowing he was in such caring, capable hands.”
“Ivan and Niamh took excellent care of our dogs and home while we were away. We received updates on their feeding, walks and plays. We’ve even had neighbors comment on how much fun the dogs seemed to have with them. I highly recommend Ivan and Niamh and will also be happy to book them again.”
“Claire has been such a lifesaver for me with my new puppy and my mini Aussie! She seems really great with dogs and very easy to communicate with. Quick responses and very caring with the pups. Sends helpful updates throughout the day.”
“Lily was wonderful. Friendly, responsible and clearly an authentic animal lover. We could tell that she looked after our Daisy and our home as diligently, thoughtfully and lovingly as a person could. Highly recommended. Thank you Lily!”
“Glenda was absolutely fantastic with Fifi. Ophelia is a very difficult dog and Glenda had the patience of a saint with her. I will definitely book again. Punctual, professional and caring. Thank you so much for looking after my girl!”
“Menka took such attentive and wonderful care of our pup in our home while we were away. She prioritized his needs and was so thoughtful, sending us many updates and pictures. We are so happy we met Menka and fully recommend her, she is such a lovely person. Thank you Menka”
“Eunice took wonderful care of Gary and our home. She was gentle, reliable, and attentive, which made me feel completely at ease while I was away. I truly appreciate her kindness and would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a caring house sitter.”
“Heather stayed at our place with our dog Stanley for 3 weeks while we were in Europe. She sent through detailed updates, pictures and videos and dealt with a few unexpected house issues that came up so professionally too. Our dog can be nervous with new people and has some reactivity. Heather was professional, understanding and really loving towards Stanley. We could tell how experienced she was with dogs. Stanley was so relaxed when we got back and we could tell how well he had been looked after. Thank you so much, Heather!”
“Anna & Vladimir made an amazing first impression in our meeting and I knew they’re going to be a perfect fit for our dog. And indeed, they were perfect! Our dog is senior and has health issues so he requires some special assistance. Anna and Vladimir had no problem meeting that challenge, they told us about the many dogs they cared for and it was clear they are dog people through and through. On our two weeks away they sent updates, took care of all of our dog’s many needs, made sure he gets his medication on time and found lots of time to show him love, cuddle and make sure he’s happy. We were calm and confident and didn’t have to worry. We received our home and dog in perfect shape. We can’t wait to book them again!”
“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!”
About: I've been a dog sitter for 4 years, fueled by my family's passion for dogs - my grandfather and uncle are dog trainers. I believe dogs deserve unconditional love and care, just as they give it to us. You can use my promotion code: CELICP96878, https://www.rover.com/sit/celicp96878 I currently work part-time in a doggy daycare, so I'm probably busier some days than others but I always going to be super happy to play and have fun with your furry friend. Dogs, like people, have their own personalities, eh? So, I just let them be themselves. If they're into gettin' petted, I'm happy to oblige. But if they're not feelin' it, I'll just give them their space, make sure they're fed and comfy, and show them some love while their owner's away. But please let me know if you're having any issues with the walks or behavior because maybe I could help you.
“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.”
“Sophie is amazing! She cared for our senior dog and younger pup, each with different needs, with such thoughtfulness. She took them on separate walks, made sure our senior received his supplements, and kept us updated with wonderful photos. We returned to happy, well-cared-for pups and a spotless home. We highly recommend her services!”
“Katrina was fabulous! Took excellent care of our very anxious dog while we were able to enjoy an evening out. She sent lots of photos and worked hard to make him feel comfortable. 10/10 for sure!”
“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!”
“Thank you for being so wonderful as always with Oswald. He adores you and Daphne loves a little affection too. Appreciate the updates and keeping me in mind while I was doing a day trip for work. 10/10 recommend :)”
“Absolutely fantastic. Stayed with my senior dog and cat for a month. Kept me updated daily. The animals felt very comfortable. They were well looked after. Thank you!!”
“I cannot recommend April enough! She went above and beyond in caring for my cat and truly exceeded all my expectations. From the moment we connected, I felt completely at ease. My cat can be a bit shy with new people, but April won her over with patience and kindness. I received daily updates with adorable photos and little notes that showed just how attentive and loving she was. It was clear my cat was not only safe, but genuinely happy and relaxed. Coming home to a content, well-cared-for kitty (and a tidy home!) was the best feeling. If you’re looking for someone who treats your pet like their own, look no further. I’ll definitely be booking again!”

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.
We had a wonderful experience with Simal! She was very responsive and communicative throughout Nellie's stay. We also came home to a spotless house, which we really appreciated. We would absolutely recommend Simal to anyone looking for a reliable and respectful pet sitter. Happy to book with her again!
We felt confident that Theo was taking care of our three dogs and our home while we were away for an extended period. She had good communication, was friendly and very helpful! Would recommend her services and would rebook with her. Thanks for making our vacation possible and offering real peace of mind for us!
This is the second time B has looked after Minnie and everything was wonderful. She always keeps us informed and Minnie seems very content. She also looks after our home just as we would. I would highly recommend B and will certainly contact her again if we are travelling.
Menka took such attentive and wonderful care of our pup in our home while we were away. She prioritized his needs and was so thoughtful, sending us many updates and pictures. We are so happy we met Menka and fully recommend her, she is such a lovely person. Thank you Menka

FAQs for House Sitting - North Vancouver
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in North Vancouver on Rover is $62.9 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 3,166 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across North Vancouver. Enter your postal code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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:
- 87% 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.
