About: I've always had pets at home growing up such as dogs, cats and even reptiles ! I also have experience caring for fishes, rabbits, chickens and pigs. I understand how important it is to feel confident when leaving your pets in someone else's care, which is why I treat every animal as if they were my own. I am more than happy to follow your pet's routine, and will make sure you receive regular updates while you're away ! I look forward meeting you and your pets ! Français / English I am currently in school, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I’m available during weekdays and weekends and can adapt easily to your pet’s routine and specific needs. I have both a cat and a dog at home, so my space is fully equipped with a variety of toys and enrichment items. I carefully supervise all interactions between animals to ensure everyone’s safety. Pets are never left unattended outdoors, and for added security, I have a securely fenced yard to provide a safe environment during outdoor time.

About: Ive been fortunate to have always been surrounded by dogs, cats, bunnies, and other animals at my parents rehabilitation center. I volunteered for the SPCA as a trained dog-walker for close to a decade and am unfazed by any behavioural /aggressive traits as I’ve fostered a range of rescues and owned seniors throughout my 20s. Please ask me any questions about the experience you’re searching for :) I’ve recently finished my graduate studies and work remotely part-time. My partner and I take care of our senior dog (12) so I am happy to house sit or provide drop ins/walks anytime. My schedule is flexible, let’s chat about what your and your pets’ needs are! Fenced in yard, spotless house so they won’t get into anything, and constant company :) I’m responsible but easy going, let me know your rules and I’ll follow them to keep your pet comfortable and on schedule
About: I believe animals are always communicating with us, and I approach pet care by listening first and responding with patience and care. I have 12 years of experience with my own dog and have worked through reactivity, anxiety, fear of noises, and leash pulling using positive reinforcement. I have worked with multiple trainers over the years and have spent a lot of time learning about dog behaviour and psychology, which has shaped how I care for animals today. I pay close attention to body language and subtle cues like freezing, yawning, or disengaging. When a dog seems overwhelmed, I focus on helping them feel safe and settled by creating space, choosing calmer routes or environments, or redirecting them toward something grounding. With shy or nervous dogs, I always let them approach on their own terms and give them the freedom to take breaks or step away when needed. I also believe in balancing physical and mental stimulation. Along with fulfilling walks, I enjoy incorporating enrichment like sniffing games, confidence-building activities, and gentle training. These activities work well for high-energy dogs and can also help more nervous or shy dogs feel comfortable and confident. I have experience caring for large and small dogs, puppies, and senior dogs, as well as administering medication including pills, liquids, topical treatments, and ear drops. I am very comfortable following vet instructions and care routines, and I tend to be very organized and attentive to detail. Above all, I genuinely care about each animal’s wellbeing and individuality. I use patience, positive reinforcement, and observation as the foundation of my care, and I always do my best to make sure every pet feels safe, understood, and cared for. I’m currently a work-from-home professional so I am quite flexible time and space wise. I am available at virtually any time and can readily offer overnight care in your home while you’re away. With a persistent attention to detail, I frequently look out for when an animal is trying to communicate a need, such as them wanting water, to play, to eat, to be pet, etc. I always ensure they have fresh, clean water and that they are fed the appropriate amount and on time. I also like to spend quality time with them giving them belly rubs and and behind-the-ear scratches. I also look out for their safety by keeping things that might be dangerous out of reach as well as checking in on them frequently to make sure they are doing well :)
About: I have taken care of dogs, bunnies, cats, for 10+ years. My strength has been in caring for animals with anxiety, nervousness, or shyness, and bringing them comfort and a positive environment. I am very good at reinforcing training for the young ones to provide them consistency and stability in their routine. I am gifted in reading animals and having a lot of patience, and a great passion for them. This allows me to connect with them really effectively and be able to create a safe and loving experience for your fur babies! Pet care fits really naturally into my routine. I work full‑time as an operations manager from home, which gives me a lot of flexibility during the day for walks, check‑ins, playtime, and just being present. I’m not rushing in and out between commitments—your pet gets real attention worked into my day, not squeezed in as an afterthought. I used to dog sit in my own home and absolutely loved it, but after moving, my landlord no longer allows pets. Continuing to care for animals in clients’ homes is my way of keeping that connection I genuinely miss. Spending time with pets is something I want to do, not just something I’m fitting in. Because my schedule is flexible, I can adapt to your pet’s needs—whether that’s midday walks, medication timing, extra companionship during the workday, or sticking closely to an established routine. It ends up feeling very natural and consistent for them, which I know makes a big difference. For me, pet care is a grounding, enjoyable part of my week—and for your pet, it means calm, reliable care from someone who truly enjoys being there! When I care for pets in your home, I treat it like it’s their space and their routine, not just a place I’m visiting. I stick closely to your instructions—feeding schedules, walk times, meds, house rules—so everything feels as normal as possible for them. I make sure they get plenty of attention, play, and comfort, whether that means active time or just being a calm, reassuring presence nearby. I’m respectful of your home, keep things clean and tidy, and always prioritize safety (doors secure, leashes on, food stored properly). I also love sending updates and photos so you can see how your pet is doing and feel totally at ease while you’re away. My goal is simple: your pet feels relaxed and well cared for, and you come home to a happy animal and a home just the way you left it.
“Florence was so good with Pancho! She asked questions about his routine, gave me really detailed updates after she left. She started to develop a nice relationship with him after just a few visits. Will definately keep contacting her for Pancho’s visits and walks. I know he is in great hands!”
About: I truly love animals and have always had a strong connection with them. I used to have two small dogs — one of them was a Cocker Spaniel who sadly passed away a few years ago, after months of effort and care to try to save him. I still have another little boy, but he’s far from me right now and I miss him deeply. Taking care of your pet would mean a lot to me — I’ll give them the same love, affection, and gentle care I gave my own. I’ll treat your furry friend like one of my own little companions. i have available time and i’m free in weekends i hope you trust me. Cuddle them and provide their meals with care. i love pets I’ll try to become their friend, pet them to ease their loneliness, make sure they eat properly, and play with them a lot.thanks for your trust
“Valerie is great! When I came home l found my pets, a kitty and a bunny, fed, clean and happy. She sent me pictures and information with every visit so l knew they were well cared for. I highly recommend Valerie and I will definitely use her again!❤️”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Otterburn Park
J’ai confié Laïka à Christine pendant mon absence et je suis vraiment reconnaissante des soins qu’elle lui a apportés. Elle venait deux fois par jour, m’envoyait chaque jour des vidéos des promenades ainsi qu’un journal de bord très complet et rassurant. J’ai tout de suite senti que Laïka était entre de très bonnes mains. Christine est attentionnée, fiable et prend réellement le temps de bien s’occuper des animaux. Sa communication était impeccable du début à la fin et cela m’a permis de partir l’esprit tranquille. Je la recommande sans hésitation et je referai appel à elle avec grand plaisir 🐾❤️
Christine est d'une grande bienveillance envers les animaux et envers les gens Elle nous a rapidement mis en confiance et ont sentais son amour et son empathie envers les animaux. Elle a été d'une grande douceur et tendresse envers notre chienne qui avait plus de 15 ans. Nous la recommandons et la recontacterons sans hésiter.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or travelling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer poop breaks during a Otterburn Park stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover based on what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 Otterburn Park 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!
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.

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.
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.
