House Sitting in Richmond

“Dana did an amazing job looking after our 10 year old manx cat, Pip! She was punctual, great at communication and provided regular video updates via the Rover app. Pip has an oral medication and strict diet that she had no problem adhering to, as well. Most importantly - Pip really liked her company too! We would definitely have Dana sit our cat again. Thank you, Dana!”

“Excellent pet sitter! Our kitty Luna was very well Loved and cared for. We were lucky to have Mariia care for our sweet cat. Our place was left cleaner than the way we left it too! I would definitely book again!”

“Mimi was great! Easy to communicate, provided updates during her sitting, showed up on time, and I can see Mona had a great time with her. Will definitely use again.”

“Lindsay was fantastic!!! She took such good care of Mollo and his senior needs 😊. They went on slow walks, stopped several times as he needed a moment to rest and enjoy the fresh grass, gave him his vitamins and pill, and even took him to the beach for a mellow but fun stroll. She also took great care of my place while minding after Mollo. She sent me pictures and was super responsive to my messages. I would definitely ask her to take care of Mollo again any time!”

“My kitty was in great spirits after having Daphne house-sit for the weekend. She was unphased by his multiple medications and fussy appetite and was very communicative with me and my back up contact while I was away. I will definitely ask her to help our again!”

“Ebony took wonderful care of Asha (and my apartment)! She provided me with timely updates about my dog and sent videos and pictures. Asha really enjoyed her time with Ebony :)”

“Ema and their partner Cindy looked after our house and our dog for just under 2 weeks over the holidays. They kept us updated with pictures and videos every day and treated our home with respect. I have absolute trust in them for looking after pets as well as house sitting. We came home from vacation to a happy dog and a spotless home. 10/10 would book again!”

“Tiana has been a life saver to our family and little 5 months old puppy. We had a short trip planned but so much chaos going on before the trip which didn't leave me any time to give her much details about our puppy or the house, we literally just left! She housesat and took care of our puppy so well, cuddled her so much! Willow looked so happy when she met Tiana the first time too. We're not experienced with Rover or even having anyone housesitting but Tiana is truly amazing. This was our first trip away from our puppy so it was quite stressful for us but we're so happy we found Tiana on here. She is very trustworthy, kind hearted, very punctual, respectful and cleans our house (didn't need to at all), and most importantly loves our puppy and cares for her like family <3 Thank you Tiana!”

About: I’ve taken care of all types of pets from dogs to lizards to Guinea pigs! And of course kitties. Right now we have our pup Zaya, and our 2 new kittens Millie and Binx. I am confident I will provide the most love and safety possible for your pet! I also offer basic house cleaning while house sitting, so if that is something you would like please let me know! I will be sending updates to owners throughout my visits with your pets to ensure your pets are being properly cared for and are having fun! I’m currently looking for a job to help pay for college as my last job ended up closing after Covid, I am available full time to help with all of your needs I will always come into your home/ pets space knowing that it could take time for your pet to trust me! I am aware of body language so if your pet feels uncomfortable at any moment I will do whatever necessary to help them in that moment. I am a very patient, caring person, who will provide a safe environment, and if that means sitting on the floor for an hour so get them used to me and my presence than I will do that!!

“Genevieve was able to watch our dogs last minute after two other sitters canceled within a week of our trip. She was very communicative and punctual. Our dogs were in good hands and the house looked like it did when we left it. Would invite Genevieve to watch our dogs again and would recommend her to others as well.”

About: Our loving family have multiple pets experience, we have a dog a cat and a ferret. So my parents started their journey of dogs since 2000s and they had two Pekingese back then and they lived a happy life 12 yrs with them. At 2018 April my mom brought a ferret in a little box back home and learn all the things about her from scratch and now we have her for 7 yrs very happily and we even have a TikTok social media about her. During 2022 me and my wife bring a little kitty back home adopted from one of her bestie’s cat baby and we’ve given a lot of love to him also got cured by him as well. There is so much more story I can say but too little to write on, it’s a family full of love and support and I hope I can do the same for you. I’m a real estate agent, most of the time I work at home and maybe goes out for openhouse for 2 hours, but everydaily basis my schedule is very flexible, also I live with my family and there will be an extra caretaker aka my mom could help to care with your pets. My home is conveniently located near the border of Burnaby and East Vancouver. We live in a ground-level, two-story townhouse, and we've dedicated the entire first floor—approximately 600 square feet—including a private bedroom, living room, and bathroom, exclusively for the pets we care for. There's also a gated balcony available for sunbathing, upon request. For safety and peace of mind, we have two 24/7 security cameras installed, one in the living room and one in the bathroom to monitor and protect your pets at all times.

“Ghazal was amazing when taking care of Zip our 14 year-old dog! She was easy to talk to and followed all our instructions. She was also very accommodating with a last minute change of schedule. It was great having her take care of Zip and we will be calling her again for sure!”

“This was my first time using Rover.com and I was fortunate to come across Rachel. I was impressed from the moment of our meet and greet right to the end when I returned from my trip. My dog Tessa clearly liked Rachel, and I liked the way Rachel asked questions about Tessa's routine, what toys and games she liked, etc. and she made notes about it all. When I said I had to leave really early for the airport, Rachel told me not to worry about changing the bed but to leave it for her - that was a real bonus not to have to rush to get that done. I was away for 12 days and was very happy to get almost daily photos and videos of Tessa - I felt very reassured that all was well and Tessa was enjoying her time with Rachel. I came home to a happy and healthy dog, and a house that was spotlessly clean - cleaner than I had left it - and to a bed with freshly laundered sheets I definitely recommend Rachel and am hoping she will be available next time I take a trip.”

“Susanne did an amazing job babysitting our cats in our home while we were on vacation. She was able to administer our cats inhaler and also ensure they wore a cone while recovering from a surgery. She made sure to play with our cats and took pictures daily. Will definitely rebook with Susanne again!”

About: I’ve got a cute little Pomeranian, that has been with our family since he was a puppy, friends and family calls him the golden boy because he’s so well behaved and well looked after - spoilt to a certain extend, but don’t we all just love our pets to want to give them the best life they can have :) I work remotely full time, and have a pretty flexible schedule. Let me know your needs and I can definitely find a way to accommodate to them :) Will require a meet and greet to see if I am suitable for your pet. Trust works both ways, even with pets, as I hope to be a fit for your pet just like how I would want mine to be if I were to entrust my dog with someone else :)

About: I've cared for both cats and dogs for several years, including pets with anxiety, senior animals, and energetic puppies. I'm patient, gentle, and always make sure pets feel safe and loved in my care. What sets me apart is my attention to detail and calm approach. I follow routines closely, give lots of cuddles (if your pet wants them!), and send regular photo updates so you feel confident and connected. I also have experience with basic medication and handling shy or nervous pets. Whether it's a playful pup or a sleepy senior cat, I treat every pet like family. Pet care is an important and fulfilling part of my daily routine. I make time every morning and evening for walks, feeding, and one-on-one attention to ensure pets feel safe and loved. Throughout the day, I include playtime, regular potty breaks, and any special care based on their unique needs. My days off are rotational, and during those times I’m available for longer walks, park visits, and extra bonding time. I maintain a flexible and consistent schedule to make sure each pet feels secure, happy, and well cared for—just like they’re part of my own family. When caring for pets—whether in my home or a client’s—I treat them like family. I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Even though I don’t have a fenced yard, I make up for it by taking dogs to nearby parks with secure areas where they can safely run and play. I’m very mindful of each pet’s routine and personality, so I tailor care to what makes them feel most at ease—whether that’s extra cuddles, quiet time, or lots of active play. I keep my space clean, pet-friendly, and calm, and I always communicate openly with pet parents so they can feel confident their furry loved ones are in good hands.

About: Now accepting bookings for Spring & Summer 2025. Located near YVR Airport. Perfect for whenever you go out of town. My partner (Margy) and I (Ryan) have dog sat for our friends and family. Most of our experience includes taking care of our family dog Paris (yorkie poo), various poodle mixes and senior dogs. We prefer to work with one small to medium-sized dog, with no health conditions, and potty trained. We care for one animal at a time, and we do not have any other pets living with us. We do not have experience with dogs that have special needs. We are fairly active people and would love to take your dog out for long walks and play fetch. We integrate pet care into our daily lives by making your dog’s routine part of our own. Feeding, walks, playtime, and cuddles are all part of the day — just like they would be at home. We prioritize a clean, comfortable space and believe in creating a loving, structured environment that supports both their physical and emotional well-being. Whether we’re caring for pets in our home or theirs, we focus on comfort, safety, and routine. In our home, pets have their own cozy spaces to rest and play, and we keep things calm and familiar. When we’re in a client’s home, we follow their usual routine closely to help pets feel secure and at ease. Every visit is personalized with plenty of love, attention, and tail wags. On the first day, we spend time observing your beloved pet and making sure they are comfortable. Margy works from home, so she will be the one to spend the majority of the time with your pet.

About: I am an animal lover and have had a family dog my entire life. Currently I have an energetic 12 year old Portuguese Waterdog that I love to spend time with and go on daily walks with. I have plenty of experience with many types of dogs as I frequently have family friends pets stay at my home where I take care of them for many days at a time. I am very active and confident in my ability to ensure your dog will have their activity and energy needs met during drop ins or walks! I am a very accessible university student taking online classes. Given the flexibility of my courses, I am available every day of the week, specifically: Monday-Sunday: 9am-10pm I have a large fenced backyard with plenty of grass. I have a 12 year old portuguese waterdog who is very friendly and loves the company of other dogs.

“Nicole was an amazing dog and house sitter! Our dog can be nervous around new people and is reactive with other dogs. Nicole handled both really well and this is the first time we haven’t worried about our dog while we were away! She was responsive, attentive and provided regular updates. She left our apartment in perfect condition too! We would definitely book her again.”
