“Ardele is the most incredible pet sitter and all around human being. My fur family absolutely adores when she comes to spend time with them, I’m pretty sure they actually enjoy when I go away now. She is always extremely attentive to my special needs animal, my senior and my over dramatic kitty as well as any medication my whole crew may be on at the time. There aren’t many folks I’d trust to have my pets overnight, let along for an extended period of time, but having Ardele for pet sitting has been a life changer for our family. I wholeheartedly recommend her services and her being your pets honorary aunt!”
“I had left for Saskatoon early afternoon. The sitter I had booked through Rover cancelled 2 hours after she was to have started to house/dog sit for me. Alexandra stepped in the next day to look after Kobe! Alexandra is dependable and took great care of Kobe! I will always try to book Alexandra when I need a sitter!”
“Andrea is an absolutely wonderful pet sitter! She fives regular updates and sends lots of photos. She was able to give my fussy dog his meds without any issue. She also spent lots of quality time with them and even took them for additional walks.”
“Nathaniel was so great. He stayed at our house with our anxious dog for a week and was able to build a good relationship with her. He followed our scheduled, gave her lots of exercise, and took great care of our house. He even went above and beyond ensuring that our house remained "viewing ready" as it was for sale while he was there. We are really happy with Nathaniel and his care of our little girl and home. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a great pet/home sitter.”
About: I'm a pet lover excited to be your pet's new best friend in Southwest Edmonton. Growing up, I was a bit timid around dogs, but that all changed when I met my friend's sweet and calm Great Dane/Lab cross. I immediately bonded and thought her quirk of being afraid of skateboards was incredibly cute. Overcoming that fear and building a bond with her opened my eyes to the incredible joy of caring for all kinds of animals. As a cat owner for most of my life, I understand the role a pet can play in your life and how important they are. My experience also includes caring for a variety of other pets, including dogs or all sizes, rabbits, lizards, and birds. I work remotely giving me a flexible schedule wherever there is internet. I'm ready to provide the loving, reliable care your pet deserves. I'm not ready for the full-time commitment of my own pet right now, so I'm looking forward to showering yours with all the love and attention they could want! Since I work from home, I have a very flexible daily routine. This allows me to offer frequent check-ins and be available during the day for walks, feedings, and plenty of playtime. I can easily fit pet care into my schedule to ensure your pet gets all the attention and care they need. I provide all pet care in the familiar and comfortable environment of your own home, where your pet feels most secure. My priority is to maintain your pet's routine as closely as possible, minimizing any stress from your absence. I will follow your instructions carefully regarding feeding schedules, walking routes, and medication. To ensure your peace of mind, I will provide regular updates and photos, so you can see that your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. You can trust me to treat your home with respect, leaving it just as I found it.
“Lyndsay was terrific with our dogs she sent me photos of our dogs she let me know how they were doing, she sent me updates throughout our time away. Lyndsay was a great pet sitter she kept our house tidy. Our dogs were happy to see use I could tell by their behaviour that they were well cared for by Lyndsay.I would recommend her to dog sit for others. Thank you Debbie Creaser”
“Rachel looked after our Odie and did fantastic. She showed up on time, sent lots of pics and was very kind. We felt very comfortable leaving Odie with her. Would 100% book Rachel again.”
“Caroline was a fantastic house/pet sitter. She was so tidy that I wouldn't have known she was here except that my plants were watered and our 2 dogs and cat were perfectly calm and happy when we returned from our trip. She was very considerate, professional and kept a great line of communication with us. Highly recommend!!”
“Nicole provided amazing overnight dog sitting care for my two dachshunds! They were well loved and catered too (lots of cuddles and short walks). Appreciated all the pictures and updates. Excited to be booking her back again soon!”
“Our Chloe was very happy with Amanda!! Great communication, very likeable and accommodating. Kept to Chloe’s food schedule and routine, would happily use Amanda again in the future as it’s clear that she loves animals!!!”
“Robin was great! She did 3 pre-visits (we booked her a month and a half in advance). She stayed in our home for almost three weeks. Gave us almost daily updates with pictures. Our two fur babies were calm and relaxed when we came home. The house was left clean and in order. Will be using her again when we go away!”
“Zoe was great with our very anxious dog. He warmed up to her quickly and was very happy and well taken care of while we were away. We would definitely recommend her and use her services again.”
About: I have 4 years of dog daycare and boarding in a commercial setting with an additional 4 years of house/farm sitting for clients with both dogs and cats. I have experience and love dogs of all sizes from Chihuahuas to Great Danes as well as experience with cats of all temperaments. I am also comfortable and have experience feeding and handling any other critters you have such as fish or reptiles. At the moment I am giving all of my attention to pet care and house sitting so my schedule is completely open for the spring/summer season. Upon accepting a house sitting, drop-in, or walk request I will schedule a meet & greet where I can meet you and your pets and go over any additional information. This includes safety issues within your home or on the walk route, crating options, allergies, or any other little quirks your pets may have. Pets are part of the family and keeping them safe and happy is my #1 priority.
About: I would love for an opportunity to meet with and learn from you and your furbabies on how to care for them! For the past 2 years, I have gone to a close friend’s condo to sometimes care for their medium-sized dog for a day. I generally aim to let their dog go outside every 2-4 hours, depending on their cues that I’m familiar with. On one or two of those breaks during the day, I like to walk them around their neighbourhood for around 15-30 mins. The only other pet experiences that I have is with a cat and a fish. I lived for four months with a cousin and helped with caring for her cat during that time. I had a betta fish that I fed and had a regular water change schedule for his fishbowl for two years. As such, I’m eager to build up more knowledge and experience with all kinds of dogs and cats so that someday I can foster or adopt a fur baby of my own. I will ensure to continue researching and studying caretaking for any pet if I am hired. I am a student taking online classes. My primary mode of commute is public transportation but occasionally and if needed, I will be able to find a direct way of travel. As such, I am flexible with schedules and can work things out if needed. For caretaking in the client’s home, I will ensure to follow instructions thoroughly. I will also ensure to put in extra effort to research caretaking for any characteristics/conditions that you describe your pet as having.
“Isabella was so great with our 5 month old puppy! You could tell Isabella truly cared for pur puppy and went above and beyond to give her lots of attention, playtime and snuggles. Our pup needed extra care due to a surgery the previous week but Isabella was great with the instructions.”
“Lacey did a great job with my two cats and saltwater aquarium. My cats spent most of their time hanging out with her, which says more than I ever could. She was conscientious and eager to fulfill all that I asked. She sends regular updates with photos and videos and was very easy to communicate with. Great pet sitter”
Rideau Park pet parents share their Rover experiences
I was kind of hesitant to use this app but we were kind of desperate, we had an emergency and we had to leave. I am so glad I found Saghar. Response was fast and professional, she indeed ask the right questions and she agreed to have a pre-meeting which was a very good sign. She's a very sweet, polite and well spoken girl and you can tell her she really loves animals right away. She gives us peace of mind after meeting her. When we came back from our trip our house was spotless and the kitties anxiety free like nothing happened. She sent lots of updates and cool pictures of our cats and their activities. Even one of our antisocial cats was even letting her pet her all over! I'm impressed, I definitely booked her again, I'm truly grateful for her great job taking care of my fur babies. Can't thank you enough.
Rachel is the best. She was so great with my dogs. She is excellent at communication and really took care of my dogs while she was here. She helped me out of a tough situation when I had to extend my stay out of town. Austin and bunny were in great hands and can't wait to hang out with her again!
Once again, Ardele has gone above and beyond. Our Pekoe was on medication that made her sick while we were gone, and Ardele handled it like the professional she is. I would never book anyone but Ardele. Our dogs and cats love her, and she obviously loves them. This is our fourth booking and we will keep coming back. Thanks Ardele. You are the best. Susan and Wally
We are grateful to have found Jessy to take care of our 2 dogs and home while away for 3 weeks. She provided us with the peace of mind we hoped for through terrific communication, pictures and updates that left us reassured. During her stay, Jessy was able to convince a relatively stubborn pooch to go for short walks. Our dogs were happy and content when we arrived back home. Everyone needs a “Jessy” for their pups!
Ainsley is very kind and Clara loved her! This was my first time leaving her with a non family member and the longest that I have left her and I was not at all worried! Ainsley sent pictures showing my shy little kitty coming out and getting some love. I am very pleased and will definitely use Ainsley to watch my pets again!
Our cats and dog love having Madison look after them. Luckily she was available on very short notice this time, and we were happy to have her stay. Madison communicated throughout her stay, sending updates and pictures, and left the place neat and tidy when she left.
This was our first time using both Rover and Natalia. Great experience. She was wonderful with our three boys. Lots of pictures, the boys were happy and content when we got home and she was great with communication. We will definitely have Natalia watch our boys again!
