“Cara is amazing!!! I feel very confident that our dogs had five star care while we were out of the country for two weeks. Cara gave regular updates with photos and videos and went over and above with training and grooming sessions. I really appreciated the care that she gave them, I feel like she loved them like they were her own pups - I know they would both be very happy for us to go away again and have Cara look after them.”
“I highly recommend Riley. She took care of our Whippet for several days, and even though he was a little nervous because it was his first time staying without us, Riley gave us complete peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. She sent us photos and videos throughout his stay, and we were very happy with her care. We will definitely hire her again.”
“Nasrin was a fantastic sitter for our big dog. He’s sometimes apprehensive with new people, but Nasrin approached with confidence and care. We would recommend Nasrin to anyone who needs pet sitting with a big dog. We look forward to rebooked with her in the future.”
About: Growing up, my family had 2 large dogs. I have always had a love for animals, big and small. At this stage in my life, I do not have any pets of my own. I am a loving aunty to my sister’s two dogs, Gus and Hopps; my dad’s dog, Ollie; my uncle’s dog, Moffat, and my sister-in-law’s cat named Ben. Not to mention, an honorary aunt to countless friends’ pets. I have had the pleasure of pet-sitting dogs and cats of all ages, including an adorable 15 year old Boston Terrier with various health issues requiring timed medication and a rescue dog that required daily physiotherapy exercises and massage for some muscle and joint pain he was experiencing. I work a full-time job Monday-Friday, 8:00am-4:00pm. Depending on the situation, I can do a morning walk before work, an evening walk after work, and a later walk before bed. My partner is often happy to assist with a lunch-time walk as needed and based on the comfort of the owner. I am a quiet and respectful working professional who is committed to providing loving care to your beloved pets in the comfort and familiarity of their own home while you are away.
“We had a great experience with Melissa. She was fast to respond, easy to communicate with, and came over to our house beforehand for a meet and greet, which I really appreciated. From the beginning, I felt that she was reliable and trustworthy. I felt completely comfortable leaving my home and the dogs in her care, knowing she would show up exactly as agreed. Melissa took wonderful care of Pablo and Braza. She took them on adventures to the beach, followed all of my wishes and instructions carefully, and truly went above and beyond. What stood out most was how calm, capable, and unfazed she was with my dogs’ special needs and sometimes slightly out-of-line behavior – she didn’t flinch or seem overwhelmed at all. Overall, I felt I could fully trust Melissa and our agreement from start to finish. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, caring, and communicative dog sitter.”
“We were so happy to have Shiva watch Penny while we were away! Definitely helped to know that she was in good hands and we loved getting the videos and photos so that we could see that Penny was happy and relaxed!”

I am open to taking dogs for walks or spending a weekend with them. I love to be next to animals all the time so your pet will receive all the love and connection in my care!

“Jacqueline stayed with our kitty for five nights. She sent daily pictures and videos of our kitty and took great care of her and our home. Our cat can sometimes get stressed when we go away but she was very happy and relaxed with Jacqueline!”
“Katrina was fabulous! Took excellent care of our very anxious dog while we were able to enjoy an evening out. She sent lots of photos and worked hard to make him feel comfortable. 10/10 for sure!”
“We just returned from a relaxing vacation and found our kitties to be completely content. Thanks for your care and attention to the house and our cats. I would highly recommend Isobel and hope to have her return in the future! Thanks for everything!”
“Mariia was punctual, responsible, and caring with my girl! She followed instructions carefully and prioritized her safety. I appreciated how calm and gentle she was with her. She also takes beautiful photos. I'm excited to have Mariia back soon :)”

“Oksana was great with our cat Goose! We came home to a very happy boy. She navigated some trouble with his tracking app with great communication and sent us lots of photos of him so we could keep up to date. We came home to a very tidy home as well! We would definitely book with Oksana again :)”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs ever since I was born, having multiple dogs and other animals in the house. I have experience looking after dogs of all sizes and all ages. An absolute highlight for me is meeting and getting to look after new furry friends! I work mornings as early as 5:30AM as a personal trainer, and happy to walk the pup before then or let it sleep in as I am at work for a few hours. With this job, my shifts are on and off for a few hours throughout the day so i have lots of flexibility to come and go. I am never usually out for more than a few hours! I can easily take any precautions needed to make him or her, whether that’s being able to crate the pup, socialize with other dogs, stay around longer through the day, walks, etc!
About: I have lost my dog in 2023 and I feel the need to give back and to help people take care of the ones who help and are there for us on our worst and best days.

We’ve had Priya house sit our 11 yr old Boston Terrier twice (and a drop off visit ) and we are super pleased with the care provided for our pup while we were away and the condition she leaves our home ! We will most definitely continue having Priya watch our pup for vacations - she’s very reliable and so great with our dog. Thanks again Priya!
Adelaide was great! She took care of my senior American Pit Bull Terrier and lived in our home for 5 nights. She met my dog beforehand which I really appreciated! She showed up on time and my dog instantly loved her! Adelaide was great with communicating and always replied right away. When we came home, our place was spotless and we had a very happy dog! Highly recommend using Adelaide to watch your animals!
We had a great experience with Averi while she cared for Olive for three days. She was reliable, always on time, and kept consistent contact with us throughout. We really appreciate the frequent updates, including lots of photos and she kept our place super clean, which was amazing and Olive got plenty of walks and attention. It was clear she was well cared for we would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive dog sitter.
Krisztina was amazing with my two cats. She was there within 15m after I requested a super last minute appointment. I have a kitten with a bottomless pit of energy and she handled it flawlessly! She even played with her so much she took a nap!! She was attentive to all of my instructions and even stayed late after I got stuck in traffic!
Mikayla was a great sitter for our dog Lilly. It was the first time we used Rover and it was a great experience. She took great care of our home and Lilly. We will hopefully have her sit for us again in the future and would highly recommend her to anyone needing a great person to watch their fur baby.
From start to finish, Carrie-Ann was a complete professional. Asking all the important questions that were needed to get to know my little Luna. Every single day I received many photos of Luna , which made me feel at ease, knowing she was well taken care of. Absolutely 110% will be booking Carrie-Ann again in the future. Hands down, Luna had the best time with her. :)
Baran is an amazing dog sitter! She’s my top choice when looking for someone to come stay with my dog while i’m away. She send pictures, videos, and updates all day, follows all instructions left for her, and really connects with and cares for my dog. My dog loves her and i know i never have to worry about her when Baran is watching her! 10/10 recommend(:
Karina and Matt were incredible dog/house sitters. It's the first time we've used a service like Rover to book a dog sitter, and we were a tad nervous about the process, but the meet-and-greet with Karina and Matt put us at ease. They answered all our questions, were really communicative and punctual. While we were away, they sent us updates on our dog, and they took really great care of our home. As happy as our dog was to see us when we got home, I think she also misses her new friends! I would highly recommend Karina to anyone looking for someone to care for their dog.
We booked Samantha when we had to go away for a few days to stay at our house to look after our Rotti and rescue staffy. She was willing to come and do 2 home visits before to make sure the dogs and us were comfortable. The dogs were happy and safe while we were gone and will book her for sure the next time we need to go away!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Port Moody on Rover is $64.38 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 3,037 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Port Moody. Enter your postal code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Port Moody 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.
Tip: 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 Port Moody 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 Port Moody 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, identity 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 Trust & Safety page .
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.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a veterinary professional or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means Rover Support will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
