“What an amazing loving ‘2nd home’ for Quinn! From the minute we walk in it’s all about Quinn! Carina is not only attentive to him, but ensures she answers any questions I may have…and the photos! Wow. He is so calm and well tuckered out when I pick him up. Thank you Carina😀”
“Polly-Anna was super accommodating, great communication and plenty of updates. She is very confident with dogs and made sure my boy felt comfortable. Thank you!”
“Kristin was great! She updated me everyday with photos and how our dog was doing, I highly recommend her! Great communication and fast responses, and very flexible on pick up times. We really appreciate her.”
“"Five stars for Ginette! Our dog, Cookie, stayed with her for 4 days and had a blast. Ginette was wonderful about sending daily updates so we knew Cookie was happy and settled. It's clear she loves animals and takes her job seriously. Cookie really enjoyed her stay!"”
“Laura and John took great care of our Jojo and they even took her in on short notice. We have taken her there twice now and both times she had a blast. Even got a bath after digging in the dirt the first time. We will definitely be back. Thanks again for taking Jojo in onsuch short notice.”

About: I have 2 dogs. They are 5 and 4 years old and I've taking care of them since they are puppy. and also I've taken care of other 2 of dogs same time when my mother in low was in the trip l am home whole day so I have lots of time to do stuff! I accept clients offer as much as I can so feel free to ask me! I take out dogs outside with leash for potty. If dog did something good give them treats and did something bad I scold them by word and let them lie down. If need to go for walking ,I can walk with them
About: Growing up around animals all my life, I've got experience with all kinds of pets! I love dogs and the energy they radiate! I try to go above and beyond with everything I do, and take pride in my work! I will treat your dog as my own, and make sure that by the time you get your fur-baby back, they'll be pooped! All dogs being boarded will have to be friendly with cats as I have one and he is quite timid. I’m trying to stick more to dog walking, but I’d love to board your animal or do drop in visits for you as well! On our walks, you can expect your baby to be mentally stimulated, excersized, and tired by the time they’re home! If arranged, I can do one hour walks instead of the 30 minute walk Rover suggests! Thank you for reading, I can’t wait to meet you!

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Ponoka home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favourite hang-out spots in your Ponoka
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
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 Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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.
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 Trust & Safety page .
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.
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.
