“We were so pleased with Riley's care of our mini schnauzer. Sara has a number of medical conditions and some behavioural issues and Riley managed everything very well. We loved that she was home with Sara all of the time so she wasn't left alone for hours at a time. Riley is very pleasant and we will use her services again in the future.”
“Cara has become part of our family. She loves our babies and keeps them safe and happy when we travel. Cara has a wonderful connection with animals and any pet parent wishing to travel without their precious babies, would be very lucky to hire her.”
“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.”
“Thank you Becky & Dylan for taking care of our little kids and our home. The pups were happy and the house was so well taken care of. You were both so easy to work with and the pups were so quick to like you both. We appreciated the photos and updates while we were away, you made us feel like we could relax on our trip. We would love to have you watch the kids again. Don and I would whole-heartedly recommend your services to anyone. Thank you again!!! Pibo, Lilly and Winston thank you too!! xoxo”
“Averi is a wonderful care taker! We recommend her for those looking for care to their pets. She’s communicative, attentive, and affectionate towards our pup, and did a wonderful job house sitting the 10 days we were away. We came back to a clean home and a happy, healthy pup!”
“Mariia and Vini were fantastic! They took great care of our dog, Buckley, making time to get to know him in advance - this meant a lot to us. They provided lots of updates, were responsive to our questions, and treated our home very respectfully while we were away for 2 weeks. Would definitely book them again.”
“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!”
“Jacqueline took amazing care of our animals and home when we were away. The photo and video updates made it very clear that the animals were so happy with her, and our house was in great shape when we got back. Absolutely coming to her next time we are in need of a sitter! Thank you so much Jacqueline!”
“So happy to have Katrina back with Dax! It was like a vacation for him. Lots of photos sent to put any worries at ease. A great communicator and I love knowing Dax is in safe hands while I travel for work!”
About: I've had dogs my entire life and have also had the opportunity to work in animal welfare in the past, so you can rest assured that your dog is in good hands. I have plenty of experience handling dogs of any age, including those with specialized care requirements. Whether you have a dog who enjoys adventure, car rides, or the comforts of home, I'm happy to accomodate the specific needs of your pet. Previously, I worked for 18 years in healthcare, so in the absolutely rare event of an emergency, you can count on me to remain calm and act quickly. While in my care, the majority of my time will be structured around caring for your dog(s). Special note regarding Sept 14 to 25: I will be taking an online course from Monday to Friday. Between these dates I will be able to do my full course from your home, and I will be able to take several breaks during the day to spend time with, and do potty breaks for your dogs. Extended walks will take place both before and after my course time. Outside of these dates, I will be free to devote my full attention to your dogs. My goal is to continue the routines that exist in your dogs lives to ensure that they are comfortable and secure, as if you never left. I do not hit or strike; learning opportunities are handled through positive reinforcement (if you allow), and a leash will always be used when leaving the home.
“We had such a great experience with Jasleen 😊 She watched our dogs 6 times this past week and took wonderful care of them. Our dogs absolutely loved her and were so happy and comfortable with her. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. She was caring, reliable, and attentive. We really appreciate everything she did for our fur babies. We will definitely be booking with Jasleen again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter! 😊😊”
“Michele was wonderful and everything went perfectly. Michele sent pictures of the walks and kept me informed at all times. Great communication and prompt in our initial meet. My first experience using Rover and was a great siccess”
“Isobel did a fantastic job looking after Finn on short notice. She took a genuine interest in his care and provided daily updates. Would recommend Isobel for dog walking or dog sitting.”
About: I have had a dog in my life for as long as I can remember! I have trained and raised my own dog and have cared for older dogs. I love animals so much and am looking forward to caring for your furry friend! I love animals so caring for them would fit into my weekend schedule as well as alternate Fridays. 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! I provide in home services as well as walking.
“Kylie was fantastic with our dog Casper. She was able to help out with our last minute request, and was an absolute life saver. Great communication, Casper seemed comfortable and happy, and she even went above and beyond with cleaning the house before we got home! 10/10 would highly recommend, thank you Kylie we really appreciated your help :)”
“I am so glad I found Daria on this site, she's been absolutely perfect. I have one cat who isn't usually easy to get along with and there were no problems at all. Having someone trustworthy to look after my pet is everything.”

Averi is a wonderful care taker! We recommend her for those looking for care to their pets. She’s communicative, attentive, and affectionate towards our pup, and did a wonderful job house sitting the 10 days we were away. We came back to a clean home and a happy, healthy pup!
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!
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

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.
