About: I have taken care of small and large animals of every kind! Anywhere from dogs, cats, and rabbits to large farm animals! I have plenty of experience as I am a lover of all animals. I have been relied on by many of my home community to walk, feed and look after their fur babies! I am currently working full time. I would love to help with any walking or house sitting on my days off, or any day of the week that fits both of our schedules! I currently do not offer services out of my own home. I would treat your space and your fur baby as my own! I believe that you leave the place cleaner than when you showed up. No messes here! With your animal or your house :)
“Wonderful and kind. Truly caring for our fury one. Made it in time. Kept track of dogs needs and directions and open to handle an in-training puppy. Thank you 🙏🏽”
About: I’ve been around animals in one way or another for most of my life. That includes growing up on a farm with typical animals like cows and unusual animals like muskoxen, as well as pets. We had cats and all sizes of dogs. I even helped my grandpa with his whippets he raced. In my adult life, I’ve continued to be around animals, not only with family pets, but also sitting for friends and time spent volunteering with a wildlife rehabilitation group. The latter got me hands-on experience working with a variety of animals, including all types birds (songbirds, ducks, owls, etc.) muskrats, foxes and even a wolf pup! I currently work 8:30-5, Monday to Friday, so have time to pop in for a quick visit before work and then time in the evenings for more visits and walks. That work schedule also leaves me free for doing it all on the weekend! I want to make sure that pets are comfortable whether I’m in their home or they are in mine. Sometimes that means they want lots of attention, sometimes that means they want their space. I have a good-sized yard that can give pets room to run about if they want to and live near several parks that are great for walks.
“Maria is an amazing sitter! She is always my go to anytime I need anything for my fur family. She is reliable and so loving towards my crew. I highly recommend booking with her!”
“Kaitlin was great. She communicated in a very timely manner, followed through, and took good care of my cat. I can definitely recommend her to other pet owners. Thanks Kaitlin for hanging out with Stanley!”
About: I’ve owned and been taking care of dogs for over 10 years, dating back to my childhood. I have lots of experience with puppies. I am used to the daily tasks/routines that our dogs are used to and enjoy providing them the most security and familiarity as possible. I’ve spent the last year working at a pet store, helping people daily provide the best care for their fur babies, and also furthering my knowledge on how each different dog breed requires slightly different catered care! Aside from work, I spend time volunteering at animal shelters, I enjoy walking the dogs and letting them run and play as much as possible before going to their fur-ever homes! I’ve had lots of experience overnight dog sitting and walking as well. I’m currently in my second year of university at the U of S studying Biology with the hopes of getting into vet school here. I’ve fallen in love with every pup I’ve met, and would love the opportunity to care for yours! ❤️ I am currently part-time employed, giving me plenty of time to care for your babies and give them lots of love and attention. Or just quiet, quick bathroom breaks if that’s what they want :) I have a fenced yard where my dogs will typically use the washroom. This is accompanied by multiple walks a day, as well as 2-3x a week trips to the dog park! When away during the day, my dogs free roam the house (and scare the mailman)! I will be comfortable caring for your pet in whichever way you are most comfortable with. Whether that includes, crating, walking frequently, or in a fenced backyard. My goal is to keep you and your fur baby as comfortable as possible 😊
About: With 15 years in healthcare, I bring a level of responsibility, calm attentiveness, and a safety-first mindset to every pet. My personal experience includes a lifetime with pets, volunteering at the SPCA, and fostering cats and kittens. Whether your pup needs a fun midday walk, or your furry friend requires in-home sitting, I’m dedicated to keeping your pets happy and healthy while you're at work or traveling. Your furry family members receive dedicated, specialized care from someone who truly understands and loves animals. I'm currently working full time, but evenings after 4 pm, weekends and every second Friday I am available completely to take care of your furry family member. I can also work from home one day per week, which is usually a Monday or Thursday so I would be able to spend the day with your furry friends on those days too. I prioritize comfort for your fur babies in their own home by staying calm, being attentive and making sure your babies are happy and content.
About: I have had dogs my whole life, all breeds and sizes. I currently have 2 golden retrievers, Rosie and Chauncey and I love them so much and yes they both sleep in the bed with me! I want another one but those puppy stages are bananas, so not right now but one day. I feel like I can reads dog well with when they want space and when they want to play. You can trust that your dogs will be taken care of when I’m taking care of them, kisses and hugs all the time! Currently I work at a golf course and the season is over middle of October so my availability will be more flexible after this time. I try and not disrupt their daily routine. When I go out of town and my brother isn’t able to watch my 2 dogs I appreciate someone that has dogs or has grown up with them because they understand the importance for me about the care of my dogs and how they live their day to day schedule.
“Needed a last minute check in during a clinical shift. Reached out to her first and she was so responsive! Spent time with my pup, refilled his water without me asking and was super good at communicating with me:) highly recommend!!”
About: I've always loved animals and grew up with a pet cat, then dog. Now my I have my own rescue husky mix, Kuna who I adore. I've learned to work through some of his reactivity to other dogs and it's been very rewarding. Over the years I've helped take care of friends' animals while they were away, and am always happy to help others with their pets. I work shift work so week to week my schedule is always a little different, but I have lots of days off which leaves me with flexible time to help with drop-ins and walks. If you book with me, I'd love to know your typical routine/preferences/expectations with your pet to make sure they are as comfortable as possible and I'm providing them with the best care!
“Brooklyn is always amazing with my kitties! She is my go to cat nanny and I know I can 100% trust her to take the best care of my girls while also respecting my home and providing top notch communication and photos. Thank you so much Brooklyn! I can’t recommend her enough.”
About: Over the last decade, I have dedicated myself to the care and well-being of dogs, ranging from my own beloved pets to those of family and friends. My approach is rooted in a genuine love for animals; they truly hold a piece of my heart, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. This passion was particularly evident during the pandemic, where I took on the responsibility of walking a friend’s three dogs three times daily. I find deep fulfillment in dog walking, and spending time with them, as it only strengthens my bond with them. I am currently working on my coaching practice revolved around Cognitive framework, and it allows me to be flexible with my personal schedule. Love dogs! Pet care, is defined by a deep, heart-centered commitment to the animals in my life. I follow pets owners instructions; I keep the dog crated if needed be, tied on a leash while walking, using walks and playtime to establish trust and bond.
About: Hi! A Little About Me 🐾 I’ve been an animal lover and pet caregiver for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I cared for our two dogs—a Border Collie and a Jack Russell Terrier—as well as two cats, two batches of kittens, fish, and two budgies. Our family also fostered dogs and puppies through New Hope Dog Rescue, and while I was in high school, I had the opportunity to briefly work with SCAT Street Cat Rescue. As an adult, I’ve continued caring for animals, including two guinea pigs who were part of my family for five years, as well as caring for my parents’ cat while they’re away. What Sets Me Apart: I believe pets are family, and I’ll treat your pets as if they were my own. Whether it’s sunshine, rain, or snow, I’ll make sure they receive the care, attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. Your pet’s safety, health, and happiness are my top priorities. I want every pet in my care to feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Currently I'm a casual employee, so my schedule is generally open. With 2-3 days notice I can typically make requests work, whatever times would be best for you, I can make work. When caring for pets in my clients' homes, I treat their pets and space with the utmost respect and care. I take the time and effort to earn both your trust and that of your pets, making sure theres a feeling of comfort, love, and safety while you're away. During drop-in visits, I prioritze safety first - ensuring gates, and doors are secured. I keep a close eye on your pets overall well-being by following your instructions and maintaining your routines to create a stress-free environment and experiemce for both you and your pet.
“Cayla did an incredible job taking care of our kitty; we felt fully comfortable leaving him in her capable hands. She was punctual with her visits and shared lots of pictures for added peace of mind. She also went the extra mile by alerting us that one of our appliances had stopped working while we were away, and made arrangements to keep the area clean. A literal life saver! Will definitely be booking her again :)”
“We made a very last minute booking to have Zach watch our three cats and they were genuinely one of the best people we've had care for them! I'm anxious about leaving them with anyone but the first meeting with Zach put me at ease, and the absolute care and attention he gave our babies had us thrilled and able to enjoy our vacation! Even our cat that doesn't usually come out for pet sitters was comfortable enough to spend time with Zach and the pictures we were sent were such a bonus to get to see them safe and happy. We will absolutely turn to Zach when we need our cats looked after in the future! He even went above and beyond and took our garbage out after scooping the litter when we hadn't asked him to do that!”
About: I often take care of my friend's dogs when they need a hand. From walking, to playing and feeding. I am specific in caring for pets, so if I am given a list or instructions on what I should feed etc., it will be perfect! I studied in University of Saskatchewan in psychology, currently unemployed but actively looking for a full time career, hence I will have plenty of time to take care, walk and feed your puppy! I am usually available on weekends (after 12pm) and weekdays. From huggies, to playdates, I am in! Hitting 2 apples with 1 stone right here since I get to enjoy being around pets and get funded doing so! (I truly appreciate you for choosing me) I only work part-time so I would have plenty of time to play with your pups/kittens! Unless my schedule say otherwise. I’m mostly free on a daily basis. I prefer updating my clients on their fur baby from time to time so they would feel better when you are away! Unless if it isn’t a long away time.
“Amber was the absolute perfect fit for my old, nervous cat. She was so patient with him, and he seemed to take to her right away. She sent me lots of updates and photos, and although I missed him, I never had to worry about him because I knew he was in very good hands. I highly recommend Amber, and I will be using her again in the very near future.”

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.
This was our first time using Rover and our experience was terrific. Tara accomodated our needs in every way and provided updates at every visit. She did more than expected, dropping in a few extra times as she felt necessary. We (and our dog) couldn't be happier.
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.

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.

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.

Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
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 dog, 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.
