“Yuan looked after my shy, slow to warm up, but affectionate dog while I was away for the weekend! The moment she met myself and my pup, we trusted her kind and intuitive nature. Would book Yuan again in a heartbeat! Great communication and care was provided.”
About: Raised in a home with family dogs to take care of, and lucky enough to have gotten a pup of my own just 10 months ago. Years of experience dog-sitting for family, friends, and others to whom I was recommended. I work part time and make my own schedule, so I can be very flexible to your pet care needs - even with short notice. Dedication to following pet's normal routine, following feeding and medication schedules, ensuring your home security, and sending regular photo and text updates if you wish.
“Tara was amazing with our cat Minou! She was super responsive and took really good care of our little girl. She sent us lots of pictures and a great summary of her visits. Highly recommend!”
About: I have been caring for peoples pets for more than 20 years, I have been a dog trainer for almost as long and I am also a Dogsafe Canine First Aid Instructor. I had a dog walking and pet sitting business for many years, have cared for many types of animals, and have many references available. I also regularly do puppy training lessons around town as well as some puppy training walks/pee breaks for those who have a young or energetic dog and a full time job. I also care deeply about senior dogs and am happy to give walks at their pace and on their schedule. I enjoy being in service to animals, I want to help make their lives better. That enriches mine. I have a flexible schedule at my job on a farm in the summertime, and free time over the winter which I will open up according to my being in town. I am new on here and am not sure if it is all set up right, but all bookings are done by request. I live in Westview. I am confident in looking after your home, your plants, your animals. I have looked after homes and farms, dogs to horses. I am happy to let your puppy or senior dog out for a pee while you are at work, or take your dog for a brisk walk if they need it. I will give your animals the best care I can.
About: Looking forward to helping out some locals with their pet care needs. Available for dogs big and small. Working in community care taking care of seniors for the past 14 years has made me comfortable out on my own, confident in my problem solving abilities and calm in new settings. I currently work part time with VCH, 7-11 Tuesday to Thursday, the Lund Post Office on Fridays and I sell at the farmers market on Sundays. Free in the afternoons. As I dog owner I am attuned to overseeing and monitoring pets, its second nature to keep an eye on things and my priority is safety above all else.

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.

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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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. 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.
