“This was our second day care with Julie, the dogs couldn’t wait to get inside and visit. Julie takes excellent care of my dogs, and sends a picture and text update throughout the day. Excellent sitter - thank you!”
“Colleen and Andrew were fantastic. They were very receptive to my pup's unique quirks and were keen on taking in him for the day. They sent updates throughout the day and provided feedback when I picked him up. Their backyard is a huge perk, and their neighborhood provides some awesome walking for the hound. I'll definitely go back to them, as long as they welcome Rudder back!”
“Lisa and Geoff took great care of our dog while we were in the area on vacation. They were kind, caring and easy to talk to. They sent pictures and updates regularly. If we are in the area again, I wouldn’t hesitate to book them again! Thank you!”
About: I have looked after and fostered many pets for the last 15 years. Cats, dogs, bunnies, even turtles!! My friends call me Dr. Dolittle :) I work full time at the hospital but I love early morning strolls, time spent at the dog park and of course one on one time as well. I will care for your pet in the comfort of your/their home so their environment is not disturbed. I find that this has more positive results
“Lovely couple with big hearts. I gave them very little notice but they were quite accommodating and helped me when I was in a bind. For that I am truly grateful. Tucker was very tired when he came home so I know he played and played.”
“Rhonda was amazing with Coffee! She kept me updated throughout the day and sent lots of pictures, including one from their trip to the beach. Coffee had such a great time! She was also very flexible with drop-off and pick-up times, which I really appreciated. I would definitely book with Rhonda again!”
About: I grew up on a dairy farm and caring for animals has always come naturally for me. We always had farm dogs and cats but then at the age of 12 I became the owner of a little beagle puppy that stole my heart. Brandy was my dog until I moved away from home. Over the years, I had two more dogs and six cats in my life! When my last dog passed, I missed him so much and asked my hairdresser if I could look after her little poodle. I really enjoyed his company and the opportunity to get out for walks with him. I am a retired healthcare professional, so my daily schedule is very flexible. Whenever I am needed, I can be available, whether it's early morning or late afternoon. If I care for your pet, I would want you to tell me about any special diet or medication requirements. I will appreciate knowing any specific rules that you might have for the care of your pet.
“Carla did an amazing job taking care of Dexter and Maya. They both seemed happy and relaxed after staying with her. She is great at communicating as well.. added bonus we got some great photos of the dogs. Thank you Carla!”
“We couldn’t have been happier with the care Hannah received. It was obvious from the moment we met them that they genuinely love dogs, and Hannah felt comfortable and at ease right away. They kept us updated throughout her stay with photos and messages, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. Their kindness and caring nature really shone through in every interaction. Their home was also spotless, clean, and very welcoming. We felt completely confident that Hannah was in excellent hands. We would not hesitate to leave her with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy dog sitter.”
“Rosie had the most amazing day with Mike and Finn! From the moment we met them we knew right away that she would be well cared for. We recieved pictures and updates throughout the day and she came home a tuckered pup. I've already booked another date and will continue using Mike going forward.”
“Sylvie was amazing to deal with from the get-go. Quick to respond, experienced, clean, comfortable environment and very friendly. She spoiled my girl, took her out for a ride in her convertible and got her a treat. I am so thankful! 5 stars, would recommend and use again!”
“Leanne was great. Despite Angel and Birdie being very excitable and energetic (and nervous) as they are brand new to us, she was able to cope and keep them happy. I would definitely recommend Leanne in the future.”
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.

About: I love going for walks and training my second rottweiler, Brembo! I love the breed as they are excellent family dogs, great snugglers, and match my energy levels. I love big dogs but I'm also no stranger to small and medium pups! My family has had small dogs for the past 20 years, who I have cared for during my time living with them, and my previous roommates had two medium dogs who I loved to go for walks with. I have previously house and dog sat for up to 5 weeks at a time. I am active and caring, and I love walking and running, especially with a buddy! In addition to walking and hiking with Brembo, I have taken my roommates' dogs on hikes and big runs, and love having a pup to join me while getting active. I love to do training while we are walking, such as sitting while waiting to cross the street or practicing stay and come. I am looking to pick up other dogs while walking or hiking with Brembo, or stop in for short visits (without my dog) to play, give potty breaks, and provide meals! I also work from home full time during the week, so I'm happy to host your pup for the day and take them out for a walk or potty break at least every 2 hours. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to reach out! I work from home full time - I have my own digital marketing business and I set my own hours. I am available most days between 9-5 and would love to take your dog out for activity, come for a short visit, or host them at my place! I leash dogs before we go outside to ensure they are by my side and so that we can easily get back indoors. I take dogs for walks from your place, or drive with them in the back of my SUV if we are going to a hike.

“Nicole was great with our dog Nova who is shy and reserved with strangers. Her calm demeanor and slow approach got Nova following her within a few minutes of meeting. Nicole sent us pictures throughout the sitting so we could see how she was doing. Would highly recommend having your doggo stay with Nicole!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Penticton
Shania was wonderful with Topaz! My friends and I were visiting Penticton and area to do sightseeing snd hiking, etc, so we needed a dog sitter for one of the days. Shania agreed no problem and Topaz seemed to have had a great time. I would book with her again anytime.
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.

Help your dog become familiar with the day-care environment before their first full day. Arrange a Meet & Greet so they can visit the sitter’s home, meet the sitter and any resident pets, and explore the space while you are there. This can make the environment feel more familiar and help you and the sitter confirm that the setup is right for your dog.
Pack anything you and the sitter have agreed your dog will need, such as:
- Their usual food and approved treats, with feeding instructions
- Medication, with clear dosage instructions, if needed
- Their collar or harness and other walking equipment
- Familiar comfort items, such as a blanket or favourite toy
- Any seasonal gear they may need

If your dog is shy, nervous, or needs more time to adjust to unfamiliar places, ask whether a shorter introductory stay is possible before their first full day.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine and some may offer flexible activities suited for your dog. 93% of sitters in your city can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays.
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.

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.

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 .
