“Yeji is going to be a regular caretaker for us now! Again she provided so many updates and went above and beyond with the visit. Thank you Yeji!! Thanks for keeping Clive engaged :)”
“Rachel was very responsive and gave great updates! She even used the remaining time during visits to sweep litter and check on the fountain water without being asked to. Super helpful!”
“Very grateful that Taenelle could help walk our pooch whilst we were out. He had a great time and was very well looked after! Looking forward to connecting again on more walks. :)”
“Enrique did a great job taking care of Elliott and kept me updated with photos. He's an excellent communicator and very dedicated to pet care. I appreciate his help and highly recommend him. I look forward to having him sit again in the future. Thank you!”
“Iman was great with communication and being available last minute to care for our cat, Gus. We received regular updates which gave us peace of mind, would definitely recommend!”
“Angela has looked after my senior cat twice now and she is excellent! She always sends daily detailed notes and photos, is easy to communicate with, and leaves the house in great shape. Thanks again Angela!”
“Lily was fantastic! The dogs loved her instantly - great rapport with puppers and people ❤️ She was reliable - checking in and providing me with lots of great photos so I knew the dogs were doing well. She was friendly, kind, and very easy to communicate quickly with at any time. I would definitely recommend Lily for any of your pet’s needs. Thanks again Lily!!”
“A big thanks to Robin! She sent pictures and videos and did a great job caring for my cats. They were clearly comfortable and happy purring away in the videos. Even my old antisocial cat came out to engage! Thank you so much!”
“It’s my first time to use Rover, and had someone I don’t know to come and take care of my cat. I left one week to spend the Christmas holidays, and I was super worried about my cat. But I’m so lucky to have Antinea! She is super sweet! My cat got good care!”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care Mehri provided for our two kitties during our 19-day holiday! From start to finish, Mehri went above and beyond to ensure our furry family members were happy, healthy, and well cared for. Each day, Mehri kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear from the updates that our kitties adored her—relaxed, playful, and completely at ease. She not only took care of their basic needs like feeding and cleaning, but also spent quality time playing and petting with them, ensuring they felt loved in our absence. When we returned, we found two content and healthy kitties! Mehri’s attention to detail, genuine love for animals, and reliable communication made this the best pet-sitting experience we’ve ever had. We wholeheartedly recommend Mehri to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate caregiver for their pets. She truly treats them as if they were her own. Thank you, Mehri, for taking such amazing care of our fur babies!”
“Alice went above and beyond to make my first Rover experience a great one. She was patient, very kind, and amazing to our kitten! I will definitely be booking her again in the near future.”
About: We are a family of 2 adults and 2 kids that love being around animals. We have a young dog of our own, a 2 year old Labradoodle and will be boarding one or 2 dogs at a time depending on temperament. A must before proceeding with booking - we would like to do meet and greet every time before stay. In the past, we were parents to a Labrador Retriever for 12 years. We grew up with pets and farm animals around us and did dog walking for about a year, also volunteered for the BC SPCA in the past. Julia is working part time and Fred is self-employed so we are pretty flexible. We have a yard (unfenced) and live close to trails and parks to give your pet plenty of exercise. We are also familiar with senior animal care for pets that are slowing down. We are happy to board your pet in our home when you cannot bring them with you or take them out on daily walks. We live close to parks and trails. We spend a lot of time outdoors and are happy to play, run with your pets or take them for a swim to the beach. We go for 2-3 walks a day, either in the neighborhood, trails or dog park and give dogs plenty of pee breaks. Julia is working part-time and Fred has flexible schedule so pups are rarely alone. If your dog is okay to be left for 2-3 hours, we are happy to have them. We do a lot of pee breaks, familiar with canine body language as we worked with a trainer for our own dog in the past.
About: I have experience caring for pets at every stage of life, from playful puppies to senior companions, and understand their unique needs. Whether it's providing extra care for seniors or simply offering loving companionship, I ensure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well-loved. What sets me apart is my deep empathy and understanding of the bond pets share with their owners, having been through the full journey with my own pets—from puppyhood to saying goodbye to a beloved senior. You can trust me to provide the thoughtful, compassionate care your pet deserves. I’m currently working a casual job, which gives me the flexibility to spend quality time with your pets. I can offer attentive care throughout the day, ensuring your pet gets the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. In your home, I prioritize creating a safe and familiar environment for your pet, following your routines to ensure they feel comfortable and secure. I’ll follow all your instructions carefully, whether it’s feeding, exercise, or any special care your pet needs. I make sure to keep their space safe, with all potential hazards managed, and offer lots of attention and companionship. My goal is to provide peace of mind for you, knowing your pet is in a trusted and caring environment while you're away.
About: I grew up on an acreage so very familiar with pets and all things involved. It taught me to care for them well and love them dearly. I work for a non profit during the day so I have tons of time in the morning and evening to care for your pets. I also have weekends and good time off. Safety is a top priority by being diligent and aware of the house. I am accountable and responsible and aim to make the environment fun, safe and comfortable.
About: I treat every dog like my own. With six years experience and London sitting background, I offer loving care, fun walks, and someone you can truly trust. I am housewife, since moving from London UK, I spend my days outdoors with my German Shepherd exploring Vancouver nature. I’m very active, have lots of energy, and love walking, playing, and giving dogs attention and care🤗 Calm, safe home environment and personalized care in clients’ homes. I follow routines closely, provide regular updates, and ensure pets feel comfortable, active, and loved💞
About: In 2024/5 we spent over 7 months sitting dogs in the UK and Europe through TrustedHousesitters. On that platform, our reviews are all 5-star and every pet owner has offered for us to return, which we have done in 67% of households. Our sits have ranged from 10 days to 3 months, which has been enough time to really bond with each animal. Even dogs that were initially aggressive or reactive loved us by the end of our time together. We are active and have good manners with new dogs. We will keep your dog engaged and well looked after. I work remotely and live with my wife while she finishes her degree. My schedule is flexible and I am available to care for your dog around the clock. I have a guaranteed meeting from 9:30 to 10:00, and then my day is typically my own to schedule, barring other irregular work meetings throughout the week. Note: We do not do 1 day sits unless it is for a repeat customers. We prefer longer term sits. I will play with your dog and show them plenty of affection. We are stern when it comes to rules and will maintain clear boundaries. Your training will not be undone by us. We are clean and quiet and attentive.
“Always happy to have BH take care of Meeka, very fast to respond so I was able to make arrangements last minute for her to come take Meeka out for a walk during the day while I was away.”
About: Hey there! I’ve grown up in the Vancouver area and always love getting outside. Animals have surrounded me since I was little and I wouldn’t have it any other way! From chickens to horses... I love them all. I have several years experience working with dogs in many different settings. I currently work full time but am able to set my own schedule, therefore I can be flexible to your schedule (and the pups). I absolutely love animals and treat anyone’s beloved friend as if they were my own. I am happy to walk, run or sit... depending on your pooch!! Any special instructions (likes to be called boo boo, extra belly rubs, treats or scratches behind the ear scratch be accommodated) I look forward to meeting you, and your best friend!
“I feel very lucky that I was able to find Eryn to watch my cats while I was out of town. She is conscientious, kind, and dependable. Her reports were so helpful in letting me know how things were going and how well my cats were adapting to her. Eryn clearly knows how to build trust with animals and how to interact with cats so they feel safe. My female cat is normally very nervous but Eryn was able to gently bring her out of her shell and made her feel safe and cared for. I was also very impressed with Eryn’s photography skills, she got some amazing action shots playing with the cats! I can’t recommend her more, she really put me at ease while I was away.”
“Hannah and Michael were amazing! They provided great care for our 2 cats and their communication was really good. They sent lots of nice pictures and overall provided great care. We will definitely use them again in the future, thanks Hannah & Michael!”

I booked Mij to look after my two young cats for a few days. Mij truly treated them like her own family. Not only did she take care of the usual food, water, and litter box, but also spent quality time with them. She provided the cats with attentive care, including cuddles, new toys and enrichment activities. Mij was easy to communicate with and took time to make sure she understood the cats’ routine. She provided thorough updates with awesome photos of the cats and was really quick to respond to my questions. I would definitely recommend her and will book her again in the future!
We couldn’t be happier with the job Mich did taking care of our cats while we were away. She was incredibly responsive, reliable, and I could tell she genuinely cared about our pets. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. I would highly recommend Mich to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy pet sitter!
Amy was great! She checked in on our boys while we were out and about. She sent updates and photos, it was clear that Elio and Nano adores her! Amy took the boys out on a walk and played with them a bit during her drop in visit. It was exactly what Elio and Nano needed

If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

- the care instructions the sitter should follow;

- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 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!

Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our .

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.
