About: Hello! My name is Jenna! I love dogs - all kinds! I have been around dogs my entire life - growing up with 2 toy Pomeranians and a Chow-Chow, as well as when I lived with a roommate, their PitBull & Boxer. My two dogs were Boston Terriers (2 & 9) . I am able to accommodate day and overnight stays. I have experience with administering most types of medications so if you have a pet in need of medications during their stay, I can assist. Please let me know how I can help you out! I also typically free for the last minute, same-day bookings. I work Monday - Friday downtown but am able to bring pets to work if needed or I can work from home during your pets stay. I live in a condo near rocky point park so your pup with have plenty of exercise. When I’m out running errands Im never gone for more than 2 hours so pups needing extra potty breaks are no issues.

“Sara has been such a lifesaver since we brought home our new puppy and have since gone back to work. It is such a relief knowing someone who is caring, reliable and responsible that we can count on to check in and make sure everything’s okay during the day. Sara is consistently communicative and always sends cute photos to keep me updated during visits. She has also been very tolerant of our older dog who is stranger-anxious, which is so appreciated. I would not hesitate whatsoever to recommend Sara to anyone looking for a responsible and kind pet friend:)”

About: Hello,My name is Christopher and I'm originally from Dublin,Ireland. I have been living in Vancouver for 12 years now.I was born into a family of boxers and staffy's, and have always been around big strong dogs since I was a child. Unfortunatly with my travel plans I cannot own a dog so I'm looking for some puppy love by spending time with other people's favorite family member. Is pecialize in the bigger hounds that many dog walkers struggle to walk. I'm chasing the one thing that guarantees me happiness and always puts a huge smile on my face...dogs. I am available to collect your dog as early as 5am to take for a 1 hour walk or I can put them into the back of my car and take them to Squamish or any desired destination for the full day and I will run the legs off them and have them home by dinner time. A tired pooch is a happy pooch. You're dog is in good hands, very safe when they are with me, I would care for them like my own child. I prefer dogs over children so they would be treated even better.

About: Neighbours and family friends have leaned on me for dog and cat care over the years. Including walks, overnight care and drop-ins. In particular a beautiful mature Border Collie called Alfie who stole my heart. More recently, we cared for a gorgeous cross adopted from India in our home for 13 days. She is great at being lazy but also put us through our paces on the mountains too - the perfect combo for an active couple who also enjoy their chill time. I currently work full-time; from home in Kitsilano twice per week, and in Downtown three times per week. Can do drop-ins or walks nearby during my lunch hour, take care of your pet overnight in my apartment which I share with my partner, or evening care/walks between 5pm-10pm most nights. Please enquire for full availability, I can be very flexible! I have a two bed apartment with a balcony. No other pets, no smokers, two young(ish!) professionals who would like a dog of our own one day!

About: Hey there! My name is Monique and I am 29 years old. Like you, I love animals. I have grown up around animals and have been around them for as long as I can remember. I moved from New Zealand to Canada 7 years ago and greatly miss having pets! Although I’m now a resident here, I have 2 cats and a cat back home. I have been trusted to house sit anywhere from days to months, with or without animals and I love walking, so would love a companion to take around the city/Vancouver with. I miss my animals so would love to take this opportunity to spend time with some. I am reliable and great with communication so can be a trusted companion for your fur baby while you cannot be around. Relatively flexible too and can work around you. I work in Yaletown and live in Olympic village with a flexible schedule! I am happy to accommodate needs based on what works for you :) We don't have pets, but come from pet loving families. Your furry friend will have our undivided attention. We live in an apartment on a quiet alleyway, with a patio area.

This was my first time finding someone to take care of my cats at home. Carrie was incredibly thoughtful and attentive. Before the visits started, she carefully went over all the details with me to make sure everything was clear. She sent me lots of photos every day, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. I would definitely book her again the next time I travel!

Cassandra was an excellent sitter for my Nellie. You can tell from the moment she meets your cat that she is a true professional. She clearly knows how to care for cats and was incredibly kind and thoughtful. She even came back to drop off the keys after I returned, so she could keep them in case my flight was delayed. I would definitely book her again the next time I'm away.

This was our first time leaving our cat alone for a vacation with a pet sitter so we were initially anxious, but we had a great experience with Erin! She was communicative, clear, and followed all our instructions very well. She did a wonderful job taking care of our cat, who seems to really like her. She was also very clean and respectful of our home, leaving everything tidy and did not leave any mess behind. Knowing that our cat was well cared for made being away much easier. We also really appreciated the daily photos and updates. :) Thank you so much!

They were attentive to each of the kitties needs and peculiarities. They also are very knowledgeable and experienced on the work they do with the pets.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Port Moody

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Port Moody is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $40 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

There are 4,462 sitters on Rover for Pet Sitting in Port Moody. About 85% of Port Moody sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

You can coordinate how much supervision you want directly with your sitter. While every sitter’s schedule varies, here are some examples of supervision by pet care service:

  • Boarding or doggy day care: Many sitters can provide frequent companionship because they design their day specifically around the pets in their care or work from home.
  • House sitting: Your sitter generally stays in your home for the requested duration, which may include overnight care. They may step out briefly to visit other pet clients, but your home remains their primary base.
  • Drop-in visits or dog walking: These can be scheduled in 30- or 60-minute windows (and can be shorter or longer at your request) to help your pet receive dedicated attention and care during those specific times.

Interested in constant or 24/7 care? This service often incurs an additional fee but many sitters are happy to discuss this option with you.

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!

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.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.

Payment is handled securely through Rover. For a one-time booking, your payment method is charged at the time of checkout when you submit your booking request. This charge will include fees payable to Rover. Your booking is confirmed once the sitter accepts it.

If the request is not accepted, the pending charge is released in 1-7 days. How long it takes to disappear from your account depends on your payment provider.

For eligible recurring weekly services, you are charged for the first week when you book and then each Monday for the upcoming week. You’ll see the full price before you confirm. Always pay through Rover so your booking remains eligible for the Rover Guarantee and support.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:

  • 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 87% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 93% 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.
