“Couldn’t say better things about Jaqueline! This was the first time my puppy stayed with anyone so I was nervous but I felt very comfortable with her the minute I met her. She eased my mind by sending me plenty of pictures and videos. She took great care of my puppy and was great to communicate with. If you are looking for someone to take care of your dog, I highly recommend her.”
“Julie was amazing! She came in clutch with a very last-minute booking and kept me up-to-date on what was happening with Jasper throughout the day. I would use her anytime and I’ll make sure to do it with some more notice lol”
About: What sets me apart is the level of presence and care I bring to each home and pet carting. I focus on maintaining pets’ routines, comfort, and emotional well-being—not just meeting their basic needs. I’m patient, observant, and calm, which helps pets feel safe, especially puppies who are still learning and seniors who need gentler, more attentive care. Tips are very appreciated and reviews are highly requested that keeps us encouraged and help Vanessa to go to Vet School 🥰😍❤️💕 My routine is built around doing what’s right for the pets I care for. I plan my days to ensure reliability, consistency, and calm, so each pet feels safe and well cared for in their own home. I prioritize safety, routine, and respect. I follow care instructions carefully, maintain a calm, secure environment, and stay attentive to each pet’s physical and emotional needs. Trust matters—to both pets and people.
“Sarah was Awsome, I only needed a place for Bailey to hangout while I was out on a boat for a few hours. Bailey came back happy and tired after 2 walks and a bunch of treats! I would 100% recommend her for any day trips while in Penticton.”
“Marylin took wonderful care of our dog Polly. She came home happy and content after every visit. We're grateful for her care and are looking forward to more visits in the future!”
“My first time using rover. The experience was amazing. Bryden and Colleen were very nice and accommodating to my schedule as I was in Kelowna for work. Although a bit of a drive from where I was staying it was well worth the commute!”
“Jutharat looked after Pippin for a day. He had the best time ever. He played with other puppies and was well taken care off, so much so he didn’t want to come home. 🥹 We enjoyed the wonderful photos throughout the day, it was much appreciated.”
“Nash had a great time playing at Darcy’s and is exhausted now ha ha. He always gets excited when we drive up to her place. She takes good care of Nash. Thank you Darcy!!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover, and I’m thrilled to offer pet sitting, dog walking, and drop-in visits through Rover. I’ve been lucky enough to share my life with three wonderful dogs over the years, and I’ve cared for many more — helping out family, friends, and neighbors in both Kelowna and Calgary.

Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. At my home, I offer a calm, pet-friendly environment with a large fenced deck and a spacious yard for play and fresh air.

About: Hi! I’m excited to offer attentive, loving care for your pets. Animal care has been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember—I’ve been caring for dogs and puppies since I was 10 years old, raising my own pups, and regularly stepping in to look after pets for friends and family. Over the years, I’ve gained extensive hands-on experience with dogs of all breeds, temperaments, and sizes. Through training my own dog as a young adult and helping foster rescue dogs in my home, I’ve learned how to handle diverse personalities with patience, clear communication, and positive reinforcement. Whether your dog needs an active, energizing walk around the neighborhood, structured care, or just a calm, cozy stay while you’re away, you can trust that they will be safe, happy, and treated like family. Specialized Experience: Experienced in managing high-energy breeds, anxious temperaments, basic obedience training, multi-dog dynamics, and foster care. My flexible schedule as a part-time student and part-time employee allows me to give your pet consistent care, attention, and companionship throughout the day. Because I have substantial breaks between my classes and dedicated afternoon blocks off, I can easily fit in mid-day check-ins, walks, and feeding schedules. Monday & Wednesday: Available for morning, mid-day, and late afternoon check-ins during my class breaks, as well as full evening availability. Tuesday: Open and available all afternoon and evening. Thursday: Free during the morning and afternoon for check-ins and walks before my evening work shift. Friday: Available for morning and mid-day check-ins before my evening work shift. Saturday: Available for evening walks, dinner drop-ins, and overnight stays following my daytime work shift. Sunday: Completely free all day and evening for full-day care, long walks, and flexible scheduling. Note: I’m always happy to share my exact class times during our meet-and-greet to lock in the precise time slots that best fit your dog’s routine! If you are looking for overnight boarding or daycare in West Kelowna, your pup will love staying at my home! Fully Fenced, Spacious Yard: I have a large, securely fenced backyard with plenty of room for your dog to safely run, play, fetch, and stretch their legs. Safe & Secure: Peace of mind is my top priority. The perimeter is fully enclosed so your dog can enjoy outdoor playtime safely and securely. Comforts of Home: Indoors, your dog will be treated like family—with cozy places to rest, plenty of personal attention, and a calm, welcoming atmosphere. Note that my home is pet free as well
“Westerly spent a few days with Tania & her hubby and he loved it! They are great people with a lovely home and I could relax knowing Wes was looked after during the days while I was at work. He was always happy to go back when I dropped him off the next day. Will definitely be booking in future when I'm back in town for work!”
“Georgia was amazing with Loki! She sent lots of photo updates, and she and her husband spoiled him with so much love and care. She was also very flexible with drop-off and pick-up times. I highly recommend her and will definitely book with her again!”

About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and care I have for every dog I meet. I've always been a huge dog lover, and I treat every pet as if they were my own.

“Brandyn and his girlfriend Suki looked after my dog when I was passing through Kelowna for a medical appointment. It was 38° and I could never have left him in the car even in a parkade. It was such a relief knowing he was in airconditioning! He seemed quite relaxed with them which was surprising since he is an anxious dog, so clearly they have great dog vibes. I would feel very comfortable leaving Juno with them again another time.”
“It’s clear that Erica and David truly love dogs! Winston had a wonderful time with them and enjoyed going to the dog park and spending time with their two dogs. He had great company and was clearly well cared for. We’re so happy with the experience and will definitely book with them again. Thank you both for taking such great care of Winston!”
“When we dropped our nervous little Tucker off with Amber he didn’t even look back. She sent us a photo and mini updates throughout the time we were away. When we picked him up he was very happy and tired from all of the playing 😊 would definitely use Amber’s services again!”

These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
