About: Hi! I’m Sydney, and I’m new to Victoria but certainly not new to caring for animals! 🐾 I’ve cared for animals across Canada and abroad, including dogs, cats, horses and goats. In high school, I managed the baby barn on a goat farm, caring for around 200 baby goats, including feeding, providing vitamins and supporting those with mobility difficulties. While travelling, I’ve also cared for two dogs and three horses on a farm in Turkey, regularly walked a dog in Germany, and spent two months in Albania caring for a puppy through daily walks, feeding and socialization. In Canada, I’ve looked after dogs of all ages and energy levels, from playful puppies to senior dogs, as well as cats. I’m also a cat parent myself, and my cat is one of my favourite little companions! I genuinely LOVE animals, and it brings me so much joy to be someone pet owners can trust to care for their furry family members while they’re away. I know how important it is to find someone who treats your pets with patience, attention and love, and I want you to feel at ease knowing they’re in good hands. Whether your pet needs a long walk, playtime, extra patience or simply some company, I’ll tailor my care to their needs, follow their usual routines and send regular photo updates so you know how they’re doing. I’m excited to meet Victoria’s pets and their people, and I’d love to care for your animals as if they were my own! ❤️ I work regular hours but am blessed to have flexibility when a pet is in need! Feeding and medication administration are time-sensitive, so I'll always make sure I'm there when you (and your pet) expect me to be there. Unfortunately (and fortunately!), my home is already shared with a few beautiful animals, so I’m not able to host pets long-term. That said, I absolutely love caring for animals and am happy to provide care in your home. I’ll treat your pets and your space with the same care and respect I would want for my own, while keeping their normal routines as consistent and comfortable as possible.
“Cannot recommend Jennifer enough! We have been fortunate to get into her schedule and every time it has been a fantastic experience. Our pooch has enjoyed her company very much, and the house has been left in tip-top shape!”
About: My love for pets is what sparked me to enter the wonderful world of pet sitting. I understand the importance of trusting someone to care for your "kids". I grew up surrounded by furry friends, and since we currently rent and can’t have our own dog, Rover gives my partner Nathan and I our much needed fix of animal cuddles! 🐶❤️ About Tori & Nathan Pet sitting is currently my second job, and I love spending my free time giving pets the love and attention they deserve. This is a shared responsibility between my partner Nathan and I. We work different shifts, so when I’m at work, Nathan will be with the doggies, and vice versa. This means your pet gets plenty of company and care throughout their stay. My regular days off are Tuesday and Wednesday and boarding can be accommodated throughout the week around our schedules. Your pet will enjoy a mix of time in our home, outdoor adventures and plenty of playtime, cuddles and relaxation. We love keeping dogs active and entertained while also giving them a comfortable, home like environment where they can feel safe and settled.
“Simon was all I could have wanted for a sitter. My dog Haiku is 14+ years - hard of hearing and getting frail. Simon made some time to come by before sitting and get introduced to Haiku and his particular needs. Simon was attentive and professional and left me with no worries while away. I got a debrief from Simon after I got home and all was well. I would have Simon take care of my dog anytime.”
“Ingrid stayed with our dog, Oscar, overnight in our home. Oscar was treated with the same amount of love and care that I would give to him. Ingrid took him on multiple hikes and gave him the same amount of cuddles that he is used to. She even introduced him to a new dog friend called Emma. When we returned home, Oscar looked very happy and our house was in immaculate condition. Ingrid took her job of caring for Oscar and our home very seriously. I will not hesitate to reach out to Ingrid in the future to care for Oscar and our home. I actually think Oscar is ready for us to go away again ;) Thank you, Ingrid!”
About: Hi I’m a experienced full time dog mom and an animal lover. I have one small Boston terrier, she is my best friend. Each morning I take her on a big river walk and we see some of her friends out on the trail! During the day we play with toys or practice some training commands! I will take care of your dog just as my own cleaning/cooking/playing/training and anything else you need. They’ll be in good hands! My dog Hoshi loves to take sun bath when weather is good. I’m currently working from home, so I’ll have plenty of time to take care of your pups! I’m available for boarding on weekends, weekdays and holidays. I have a big yard and one friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. They can roam free or run around in the house and yard. I also have tons of toys for our doggies to play with. You can trust me with your dog. I will make sure they are safe and sound.
“Jenalle‘s gentle, calm demeanour meant that Winnie was able to relax and feel comfortable with her instantly, this was a big relief for us as Winnie is a reactive and anxious dog. We felt confident in Jenalle’s ability to manage Winnie’s challenges and that she was really well looked after.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Pemberton
Marley was really great with my pups. She spent three nights with them while I was out of town, took them for walks, and had a little pool party to beat the heat. I would definitely have Marley look after my girls again. I appreciate everything she did for them and my mind was at ease while I was away.
Coline was such a great sitter for my cats Tuna & Mayo and looked after them, and our house, like it was her own. She was great with communication and sent pictures to let us know everything was going great. They loved her!! Would 100% recommend Coline for your pets needs and will definitely be booking with her again. Thank you son much!
Therese puppy sat for my two boys, Bodhi and Zeus, for 5 nights, while my husband and I were away. The boys were very well cared for while I was away, clearly, as Therese sent many pics and updates throughout the stay, and the boys seemed very calm, settled and happy when we got back home. The boys can be a handful together, but Therese was completely capable of meeting their needs, keeping them entertained, and giving them lots of attention during the stay. We would definitely connect with Therese again; thanks Therese!
Chad was a wonderful pup sitter! My two boys were very well cared for while my husband and I were away. Chad sent lots of photos and updates, and I was confident that the boys had plenty of care & attention and a lot of fun too, while we were gone! I would definitely connect with Chad in the future about caring for Zeus and Bodhi, and I know that the pups would be thrilled to have him puppy sit them again too. Thanks Chad!

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Pemberton 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Pemberton 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 Pemberton 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, a background 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 .
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Payment is handled securely through Rover. For a one-time booking, at the time of checkout when you submit your booking request. This charge will include fees payable to Rover. Your booking is confirmed once the sitter accepts it.
If the request is not accepted, the pending charge is released in 1-7 days. How long it takes to disappear from your account depends on your payment provider.
For eligible recurring weekly services, you are charged for the first week when you book and then each Monday for the upcoming week. You’ll see the full price before you confirm. Always pay through Rover so your booking remains eligible for the Rover Guarantee and support.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our .
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
