About: I love all animals, big and small. I currently have 3 cats of my own, and I dog-sit and cat-sit for quite a few of my friends on a regular basis. I have had numerous pets throughout my life, dogs, cats, even hamsters, geckos, fish and bearded dragons! I find that most, if not all pets develop an instant connection with me. After one or two interactions, they have built a love and trust that is truly important for this type of work. I will provide a comfortable environment and build a routine that is necessary for your pet. You can count on me to provide the best care possible for your pet, and I will love him/her like they are my own. I can’t wait to meet your fur babies!
About: I've taken care of animals my whole life starting with my three cats and one small dog, one aggressive that we socialized. I have helped my partner take care of a Border Colly mix, and a German Shepherd and I love to play with, run with, and swim with them, I enjoy making them homemade dog food, brushing and cleaning them. I have always wanted to care for animals, especially ones less fortunate. I have come across many dogs and cats in horrible conditions and it has always been my goal to make them as comfortable as possible, and try and bring joy back into their life. I have rehabilitated starving dogs from no energy, sad dogs into healthy, social, fun and vocal dogs. I can handle calming violent street packs and showing dominance, but I have also sat in the mud for hours letting a shy dog or cat come to me. I know what to do depending on your animals needs. I can be extremely patient, silent and comforting for anxious scared baby's or match the energy of high energy dogs and cats. I can be firm for obedience training (absolutely no hitting or yelling). I am gentle and caring. I have taken care of animals including my own baby's towards the end of their life and understand how precious every year with your family member is. Working with dogs and cats brings a purpose and passion to my life and I would love to bring that passion and care to your fur baby. December through winter I work roughly 8 hrs a week and will be available to be essentially home all day with your doggo or cat. October I work full time Monday- Friday 8-5. I'm free on Saturdays and Sundays. I am gone for November. I can come by before and after work to let out, feed, play with and walk or I can stay the night or take home with me. It's all about you and your baby's comfort. My partner and I are long distance so the dogs are at his house so there will be no other animals in the house. I can do free feeding or schedule (I do schedule for my dogs) or I can make homemade food as well. I can very easily run your dog if they are energetic or we can just chill and snuggle and/or play mental games. I also can bath most dogs and cats without too much trouble. I change litter boxes religiously and take the dogs out for bathroom breaks frequently. Water bowl will never be empty and I will always remember medication or other special requirements. A dog or cat will always feel safe, comfortable, and respected with me :)
About: I'm lucky enough to have had dogs my whole life. I've cared for small dogs, big dogs, old dogs, and puppies. I love looking after pets and have done so many times for friends and family. I would be thrilled to do the same for your pets! I am in my third year of university now at USask. I have lots of time to look after your dogs but I do attend classes during the day. I have no classes on the weekend but I do occasionally work casually on the weekend. Of course, I will let you know any details of my schedule that may be important. Always feel free to ask questions! I'm very considerate of every pet's needs. I am comfortable with all pet sizes and ages. I understand the importance of many pet care aspects such as feeding rituals, activity, and of course, attention.
“Ginny took great care of our cats while we were away. She was very reliable, attentive to detail, and thoughtful in how she cared for them and their specific needs. She always sent videos and photos which was nice to see. I would recommend her to anyone.”

About: I’ve always loved dogs and they seemed to always love me. I’m very safety oriented and will make sure your baby is well taken care of. I have a Beagle of my own, she is very stubborn and tests me everyday, so I’m very confident I can handle whatever unexpected situations your fur baby will throw at me. I am currently working during the weeks during the day, but after about 4-5 every day I will be available for services and to help you with your fur baby. I am a very easy going person who doesn’t panic in the heat of the moment. I understand that dogs can get worked up by whatever they see on walks whether it be a rodent, bird or another dog. If you have any specific requests just let me know and I can make sure they’ll be fulfilled.

About: I've been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my family always had pets, and I helped with their daily care, including feeding, walking, playtime, grooming, and making sure they felt loved and comfortable. I currently have two cats that I've raised from kittens, which has given me firsthand experience with everything from kitten care and socialization to maintaining a healthy routine and recognizing their individual needs. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, and I take the time to make them feel safe, happy, and relaxed while their owners are away. Whether it's an energetic dog that loves long walks or a shy cat that prefers quiet companionship, I'm committed to providing patient, reliable, and loving care. I know how important pets are to their families, and I'll treat yours with the same attention and kindness that I give my own. I work full-time with a consistent schedule, typically 6:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., which gives me plenty of time in the afternoons and evenings for walks, drop-in visits, and quality time with pets. I also have every weekend off, making me available for longer visits and flexible scheduling. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, and I make sure every pet receives the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I understand that every pet has their own routine and personality, and I'll take the time to follow your instructions carefully, whether that's feeding schedules, medications, exercise, or extra cuddles. I'm respectful of your home, reliable, and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. I'll treat your furry family member with the same love and care that I give my own pets.
“We are so happy to have found such a great pet sitter. Anthony is the best. We never have to worry or stress about our cats well being while we are away. When we returned, our cat was happy, content and well cared for. We highly recommend Anthony!”

About: I’ve always loved animals and have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all personalities and energy levels. I’ve volunteered with Saskatoon Dog Rescue, including fostering and caring for puppies, and I’ve also provided dog-sitting for friends and family. I’m comfortable with walks, playtime, feeding routines, cuddles, and giving pets the attention and care they need to feel safe and happy while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule and love being able to incorporate pet care into my day! I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and sitting throughout the week, with plenty of time to give your pets attention, playtime, exercise, and cuddles. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and keep their schedule as consistent as possible while you’re away. I treat every pet like they’re my own! In my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of attention and cuddles. I’m happy to follow specific instructions for each pet and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their person is away. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and little check-ins so you know your pet is happy and doing well!

About: I am an animal lover and cannot imagine my life without one! I have cared for dogs and cats of all ages, my own plus for neighbors and friends. I have two French Bulldogs, which are brother and sister, plus one very large, easy going cat. My dogs are gentle, well socialized and enjoy being with other dogs, while the cat mingles easily with any visitors that come to my home My yard is large and securely fenced with lots of room to romp and play. We frequent the dog parks. Our favorite past time is cuddling on the couch, where other four legged friends are always welcome! I work full time, but would be available for a midday check. Weekends are open and dedicated to my beloved pets. Your furry loved one would gladly be welcomed into my home!
“Erika was amazing with Beau our 6 month Bernese puppy! She listened to exactly what I asked and even helped him build more with training. I love the updates with videos and pictures! Looking forward to having her look after Beau more often! Thanks Erika :)”

“Gillian is reliable, honest, accountable, and kind. She is highly recommended, and we will book her again in the future. Thank you Gillian, for taking such good care of our pets. We appreciate you and the job that you do. Burt and Family”

About: Hello, my name is Mikela, I'm 30yrs old I had two dogs and a pig but I no longer have them with me. MJ who was our oldest dog, and was disabled due to an accident is no longer with us because of old age and her disability. Her sister Onyx is now thirteen, they were a funny pair and you knew who was top dog. MJ was a small yorkie/pom/jack russel. I got her from a farm and I adopted Onyx who also came from a reserve. So both our dogs are rescues and mixes, we also had a pot belly pig with Onyx named Dexter. Their relationship was something I wish could have lasted longer but because of circumstances thought differently. I can't deal with cats here due to my mom being allergic so we don't own any, our home is just dog friendly and whatever other pet you have that isn't a cat. I'm hoping to earn a little extra money with this job so solid inquiries only. No stepping in with interest and then backing away, I'm hoping the interest you bring will be final. I find the interest and then finding someone else rude because you make me hopeful and happy, so solid inquiries only please. A little about me I've got epilepsy and that's why I'm doing this, I live with my parents so I don't live alone. Because of my epilepsy I can't drive. My schedule is open, I'm currently looking for work from home. So I'm open after 12:00am until 7:30(ish)pm for boarding/looking after your animals. We can customize the time too. Our fence has just been redone so your dog won't be able to jump or get out. We've got treats for my one dog Onyx so if you are okay with sharing I'll share. We also have a water dish and our place is fairly clean, we don't have a spot to crate and I won't be able to come pick your pets up due to my disability.
About: I've grown up around animals since I was little. I learned how to train, feed, groom, and care for them around the age of 10. I have cared for everything from 2 day old kittens to 13 year old dogs. I have my own pet and would love the chance to care for yours. I know what its like to be away from them, so I know how much it means when you have someone who will love them like their own and I can't wait to be that person for you! I am currently working part-time so I have lots of time to take your dog for a walk or go check on your kitty! Whatever you need I'm there! I love walks and would love to have a furry friend to keep me company. If they just need me to pop in for a check-in, that's cool too. I will always make sure their water bowls are full and bellies are fed (ofc according to your routine), and I will make them feel safe and loved.

About: I not only have two dogs of my own, one of which is 13 years old, but I am experienced with dog sitting for freinds and family alike! I am an active person, and have experience with senior dogs, super rowdy dogs, big dogs, and small dogs! I work part time, with varying hours and am Able to stay away from home. Beacause of my jobs hours I’m either out of the house early morning or late at night (5-8ish) typically. My senior dog requires a lot of basic care such as medications, small short walks, and patience. My other dog recently got ACl surgery so I have experience in that field. Outside of that, I love walking, I love fish creek, and I hope to be able to take your loved fur babies to do all the fun stuff I don’t get to do with mine🩷

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Saskatoon
Joel has now looked after Nessa twice, and he’s been absolutely amazing both times. He leaves our home spotless, gives regular updates, and always sends the cutest photos of Nessa living her best life. She clearly feels comfortable with him — she even got to go out to a local restaurant on their last stay, which she loved. Nessa can be a bit particular, but she settled in with Joel right away. It’s such a relief knowing she’s in great hands. We’ll definitely be booking with him again.

I've had Janice walk my dog a few times now, when I'm in a punch. She's very responsive, and ready to help. Provides feedback about the walks and is good with my dog. I would recommend Janice to others and will be happy to ask her to walk my dog again in the future.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Saskatoon is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $5 and $32 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 258 sitters on Rover for Dog Sitting in Saskatoon. About 81% of Saskatoon 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.
Before the first visit, give your sitter clear written instructions covering your pet’s feeding routine, medication, litter or toilet care, preferred activities, behaviour, and anything that may make them anxious. This is a good idea, even if you’ve had a Meet & Greet.
Your instructions should explain where supplies, such as food, treats, medication, leashes, litter and cleaning supplies are kept. Include your vet’s details and an emergency contact, and let your sitter know what signs could indicate that something is wrong.
For some visits, you may want to confirm how the sitter will access your home and identify any rooms or areas that are off-limits. Update these instructions whenever your pet’s routine or needs change.
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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 Saskatoon 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.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
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.
