“Sam did a great job looking after my cat, Kitt. He seemed right at home with her in my house. She sent me pictures & videos while she stayed at my house, which brought me so much joy. She was very respectful, kind, and trustworthy. I would highly recommend her as a sitter and would use her again.”
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.
“Ginny was amazing as a caregiver to our dog Jake and as a house sitter. We could not be happier with her attention to detail and genuine love for our older Black Lab. We highly recommend Ginny!”
About: I’ve grown up around animals and have always loved caring for them. I have 4 cats of my own and I’m comfortable caring for both cats and dogs of all different sizes. I’m happy to help with feeding, walks, playtime, litter boxes, potty breaks, and of course lots of attention and cuddles! I know every pet has their own personality and routine, so I’m always happy to follow your instructions and make sure they’re comfortable and well cared for while you’re away. I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the week, including weekdays and weekends. This gives me plenty of time to spend with your pets and provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship throughout the day. I’m also available for overnight stays and can accommodate last-minute bookings when my schedule allows. I’ll care for your pets in their own home where they can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. I’ll follow any instructions you provide for feeding, walks, medications, potty breaks, sleeping arrangements, and anything else your pet needs. I’m respectful of both your home and your pet’s boundaries, and I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is safe and well cared for while you’re away.
“Gracie was wonderful, I will be rebooking in the future! She was friendly, came to meet us ahead of our booking, and followed our “way of doing things” to support our dog’s safety and needs. My home and doggo were well cared for, lots of photo updates, everything went perfect!”
“An amazing dog caregiver. If you have any concerns having someone in your home do not be concerned with Jessica. The house was spotless, dog was brushed beautifully. Unsure if our dog even wanted us back.”
“Jennifer did a great job at watching our cat! She had awesome communication and sent lots of pictures. My cat warmed up to her right away which is uncommon and she seemed very attentive to my cats needs.”
“We highly recommend Kaitlin as a pet sitter. After meeting Kaitlin and introducing her to our senior pet we felt confident leaving her to care for our home and dog. Kaitlin was very professional throughout our experience. She communicated with us as needed and handled any issues that arose. Kaitlin’s concern was for our pet’s comfort not her own. We appreciated knowing that our elderly dog’s quirks and stresses were being met with gentleness and compassion. Thank you Kaitlin!”
“Ashlynn was very responsive and I had full confidence that my cats were being well cared for. She sent frequent updates with lots of wonderful pictures for me to see while I was away. I returned to a very clean home and two happy boys ❤️❤️. I’m very grateful to have met Ashlynn through Rover and hope my boys will be able to spend time with her again in the future.”
“We feel very lucky to have found Jrosaleen. We love the attention she gives to Skye and Frankie and Skye have a blast playing together. She is so genuine with such a big heart. Exactly who we want to care for our pet when away.”
“Maite was amazing with my fur baby! She was very attentive to lilo when we were away for the weekend. She sent updates and she did all of my dogs medications ( which were a lot) she is amazing and we will definitely be rebooking :)”
“She is awesome. She looked after my dog even though he was not feeling well. She looked after him with no complaint. Thank you so much for taking such good care of him.”
“Izzy was happy to see us when we came home, but she was sad to see Maria leave. Three days later, Maria had to stop in to pick up a couple of things she left and Izzy was beside herself with joy to see Maria again.”
“Karissa is great with our pets! I felt very comfortable leaving for the weekend knowing she was home with them. She sent lots of pictures & updates which was so reassuring. Thanks again and definitely will be rebooking! :)”
“Cassidy did a great job of looking after our house and our baby girl weim. Would recommend if you need someone to in-house pet sit while you are gone. Thanks for looking after Nala.”
About: I was born and raised on a farm so im no stranger to hard work and animal care! I myself am also a pet parent to 7 cats and 2 dogs and have raised cats and dogs from bottle babies to seniors. Im also a volunteer with the Saskatoon Dog Rescue and am taking a dog training course. I also have experience with dog reactivity and administaring meditations. I very much understand the importance of finding someone trustworthy to look after your pets while you're away so schedules and instructions will be followed to a T and i will send as many updates and pictures youd like while your away! Leaving your fur family at home for work and vacations can be hard and finding someone to trust while your away can be harder so please ask as many questions as youd like before booking with me!! I'm am available for walks and checks in between 10am and 6pm everyday. Other times are a possibility but will need to be discussed directly. I do not do boarding or overnight stays at my house but would be more then happy to pet sit at your place. When I care for a dog in their home I follow all clients instructions as well as lots of love and play, while also respecting boundaries and watching body language. While on walks I love to just see dogs be dogs, while also being respectful of the leash as well as evniroment. For safety I carry a can of pet corrector and a slip lead. If you're working on any training let me know and ill be sure to follow exactly what you're doing to reinforce your current training.
About: I am an animal biosciences student currently in school, I have worked in a veterinary clinic, and I am hoping to go to vet school. I grew up around all types of animals. I have taken care of dogs of all breeds and ages. I love being outside and going on adventures. I would love the opportunity to take care of your furry friend! I am currently working full-time, week days from 7-3. I have lots of time in the afternoon and weekend to spend caring for your pets and I am up early in the morning to make sure they are fed and have gone outside before I leave for work. I love going for walks and adventures, as long as you are comfortable with it, I can take you dog(s) for adventures away from the house or around the neighbourhood. If you have a fenced yard I love spending time outside and would hangout and play with your dogs in the back yard.
“Michaela was very communicative throughout her stay with our pets! She did a great job! Lots of play time and walks, and she had no issues with our high maintenance diabetic cat as well!”
“Laura was great with my pets! She communicated often and clearly gave them lots of her time and attention. I came home to content and happy cats. I got lots of cute photos too, an excellent bonus! I would absolutely recommend Laura and will be contacting her again in the future.”

Samantha was amazing with our dog Bruce! Bruce is... a lot. He's got big feelings and really prefers to stay in his own home with his people around — even one night at his favourite daycare left him with lasting separation anxiety (he still waits at the gate every pickup time convinced we've abandoned him). So when Samantha came to meet him beforehand and still took the job, we were relieved but also a little nervous. We shouldn't have worried. We came home to a genuinely happy, relaxed dog — zero anxiety, excited to see us but not stressed out at all, which for Bruce is huge. The house was tidy, and Samantha kept us updated the whole time so we always knew how he was doing. She clearly gets anxious dogs and made Bruce feel safe in his own space instead of just "managed." We'll absolutely be booking her again.
Gracie was wonderful, I will be rebooking in the future! She was friendly, came to meet us ahead of our booking, and followed our “way of doing things” to support our dog’s safety and needs. My home and doggo were well cared for, lots of photo updates, everything went perfect!
Jade is incredible! It was such a huge relief knowing our pups were in great hands while we were away for our wedding. We loved to see all the photos she sent throughout the day and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were having the best time. When we got home, our house was spotless and our dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We are so grateful for her and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her. We will definitely be using her again in the future :)
Afton provided excellent care for our pets while we were away. While she was here, Afton provided additional pet care giving insulin shots to one cat, Stuey, and providing medicine to our other cat, Gracie. She provided us with updates and pictures while we were away. We plan to use Afton again in the future. Thank You
Before the initial in home care Jenna came to our home for a meet and greet! Jenna provided excellent in home care for our dog Peanut for 1 week. She was dependable, respectful of our home and attentive to Peanut’s needs. Communication was clear and timely with daily texts, pictures and videos all which gave us great peace of mind. Jenna brought her dog Frankie who was a great playmate for Peanut. I would confidently recommend Jenna to anyone looking for reliable pet care! I am thankful that Jenna accepted to care for Peanut.
Keela was great. She looked after our pug puppies (~1yr and ~11 weeks) and was absolutely wonderful. Consistent updates, house was so clean when she left and the pugs were exhausted. I really appreciate that she was able to care for my boys on short notice as well.
Zoey was amazing with Tobi. She helped with watching him during our rehearsal, wedding ceremony, and reception. Our day could not have gone as envisioned without Tobi there, and to have Tobi there we needed Zoey. She was always near by to ensure he was safe and put his leash on and take him out when he needed. This allowed my husband and I to not have responsibility of watching him. He was a hit at the wedding and thanks to Zoey being the biggest help! I would get Zoey to watch Tobi again if we have any Saskatoon stays! Thank you so much!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Saskatoon on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 150 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Saskatoon. Enter your postal code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Saskatoon maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Garbage & recycling: Taking garbage bins to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Saskatoon walking routes, the location of your favourite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
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!
You can find what you need to review a sitter on their profile before booking with them. Each sitters’s profile on Rover shows verified reviews, identity check, and ratings to give a glimpse of how their previous visits went. You can also use the Meet & Greet to walk through your home, identifying which areas, like your bedroom, are off-limits or not. Requesting details of your home security through the app can also be a good way to have your sitter keep you updated about your home.
If you have security cameras or doorbells, Rover asks that you disclose them to sitters before you book.
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.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a veterinary professional or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means Rover Support will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
