Sara is the absolute best! It’s so hard to leave your pets with someone you don’t know, but Sara made us comfortable from the very start. She is so sweet and friendly and our dog was comfortable with her right away which was definitely a sign of her good nature. The biggest surprise was that even our shy cats made an appearance, which is almost unheard of! She showed up on time, sent us updates and made sure to reach out with any questions. Overall she gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We can’t wait to have her pet sit again next month!

Rp was fantastic with our herd of two cats and two large dogs, some of who require regular medications. Our house was tidy and clean and our pets were happy and healthy. We received regular updates and photos of everyone having a great time. RP made our vacation totally worry-free. Highly recommend RP!!

I came home to a very happy kitten. I was nervous to leave her so long. So I asked for not too much info. Holly just let me know all was good so I don't know details. But my kitten seemd healthy and playful and cuddly when I returned and the place tidy. She was as Holly said in "good hands."

About: What sets me apart is my 11 years of hands-on experience raising my own dog from puppyhood to its senior years. I understand the patience needed for puppy training and the gentle, attentive care required for senior pets. I treat every guest with the same lifelong commitment and love I gave my own. Since I work from home, pet care is naturally integrated into my day. I provide constant supervision and companionship, taking regular breaks for walks, backyard playtime, and belly rubs. Your pet will never be alone and will enjoy a consistent routine right alongside me. I provide a secure, supervised, and loving environment. I specialize in maintaining consistent routines and constant monitoring to ensure every pet feels safe. From senior-friendly spaces to active puppy supervision, I use my 11 years of experience to manage potential risks and provide total peace of mind for every owner.

About: I have always had dogs. I grew up around many different kind of dogs both large and small in my family home. I couldn’t imagine being without a pet. When I moved out on my own I got cats and four years ago I got a dog of my own. He is the light of my life. George Michael is a mini golden doodle and a very friendly guy. He loves making new friends. I’ve been walking, feeding, bathing, and otherwise caring for dogs for as long as I can remember. I can’t wait to meet new furry friends! I currently work from home so I get to spend a lot of time with my little guy. We have daily walks (sometimes more than one) around the neighbour hood and have play time regularly. I am off work around 3:00pm every day so I have the entire early afternoon and evening to care for pets. I live in an apartment but I live in an area near a park and there are nice walking routes which we frequent. I have space to crate your dog if necessary. I have a big bathtub where I bathe George and can bathe other dogs. I love playing with dogs and I have plenty of toys in the apartment to play with both inside and outside.

About: Between my husband and I we have over 10 years of pet experience. Between growing up with animals and more recently fostering dogs, in addition to dog sitting for some friends we've had a wide variety of dogs in the house. I work part time which allows me the flexibility to spend lots of time with the dogs. I'm a morning person and enjoy getting up early to go for walks, and now that it's nice out I'm likely to be outside most of the day! We have a big fenced yard which is great for the dogs to run around and play. We also live in a quiet little town which is perfect for taking the dogs for walks with minimal distractions

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 12, and it’s truly one of my favorite things to do! I love spending time with furry friends—feeding them, playing with them, and making sure they feel happy and safe. Since moving to Winnipeg four years ago, I’ve been the go‑to pet sitter for friends whenever they travel. They trust me because I follow their instructions carefully and treat their pets like part of my own family. I’d be happy to give your beloved companion the same loving care while you’re away! I’m working from home right now, so I’d really enjoy hanging out with a furry friend. I have plenty of experience caring for pets, and I’m flexible with my hours to make sure they get all the attention and walks they need. I’ll make sure your pet feels safe and comfy. With a balcony for fresh air, your furry friend will be happy. I follow instructions carefully and give lots of love and care.

Sharon was a wonderful sitter. She was responsive and gave us daily updates in form of pictures and videos. She also reached out with potential issues when they came up in order to ensure a healthy happy pup. We were nervous leaving Huxley in anyone else's hands, but Sharon kept our anxiety down. We will definitely be booking Sharon again!

About: I provide dependable and compassionate pet care services tailored to each pet’s individual needs, including feeding, fresh water, daily walks, playtime, litter box cleaning, basic grooming, companionship, and overnight care if required, while also keeping owners updated with messages and photos for peace of mind. Activities may include structured walks for exercise, interactive games for mental stimulation, calm companionship for senior pets, and maintaining consistent routines to reduce stress; before beginning care, I always learn about each pet’s personality, dietary needs, medical instructions, and preferences to ensure a safe and smooth experience. I have previous experience caring for pets for friends and family, which has helped me develop strong observation skills, patience, and an understanding of animal behavior, and my caregiving background has strengthened my sense of responsibility and attentiveness. I am available in the evenings and on weekends, and I can dedicate focused, quality time to the pets in my care, ensuring they receive not just basic supervision but genuine companionship, comfort, and positive engagement while their owners are away. 🐾 I currently am stay at home daughter and a sister not wife to be precise yet. So i do have all the time in the world. I wouldn’t be bringing pets to my place, i can certainly take care of them in an environment they are already thriving in, their home.

About: Hello! My name is Hadas and I am a dedicated pet sitter and dog walker based in Winnipeg. I am 26 years old and work full time from home during the week so my schedule is flexible. I have a passion for caring for animals, and I specialize in providing services for both cats and dogs. I am a big animal lover. I currently have three cats (one senior) and have experience with puppies and senior dogs. 🐶🐈‍⬛ I currently work home full time Monday to Friday 8-4:30. I am always home during the weekends as well. I have a very flexible schedule and can be with your pet all the time and give it all of the love and attention they need and deserve. My home is a very clean, organized and safe place. I have three cats who love dogs. Two of them are four years old and the other one is 11. They are all in great health condition, are fixed and have all their vaccines. We recently had our senior dog pass away and they all got along great. As long as your dog is cat friendly there won’t be an issue.

About: I currently work at a doggy daycare and am in school to become a veterinary assistant, so I have experience caring for all different kinds of dogs and animals! I have 2 dogs of my own, one is a puppy I’m raising, and they are just the sweetest things. I work 1 day a week, so other than that all of my time is free and flexible to work around your schedule and your needs! I promise to take as good of care of your fur babies as I do of my own! I care for them in the comfort of your own home! So they don’t need to get used to a whole different environment. I do daily drop-ins, dog walks, and overnight pet sitting.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life, so being around animals has never felt like work, it just feels normal. Our home always had two or more dogs at a time (of all sizes), so I’m very comfortable juggling big personalities, different energy levels, and all the chaos that comes with a happy pack. My family used to breed Mastiffs, which means I truly grew up raising puppies. I was there for the tiny, clumsy stages, the early training moments, and all the cuddles in between. Helping care for litters taught me patience, structure, and how important consistency is, especially with large breeds. I’ve also loved and cared for senior dogs (fostering), small dogs (had a couple little pomeranians), so I understand the softer side of things too. Slower walks, extra gentleness, watching closely for comfort and mobility, and making sure they still feel safe and happy. Animals have always been family to me. I’m big on affection, routine, and making sure every pet feels secure and spoiled in the best way. Whether your dog loves long walks, play sessions, or just being someone’s shadow, I’m happy to meet them exactly where they are. Pet care fits really naturally into my routine. I work Monday to Friday from 9 to 5, which makes me a great option for evening walks, check ins, and overnights during the week. I’m fully available on weekends, so I can dedicate plenty of time to longer stays or more active pups who need extra attention. I live in a house with two other girls who also love animals, so it’s a welcoming home environment with space and flexibility. Your pet’s routine and comfort always come first, and I’m happy to stick closely to whatever they’re used to. I know leaving your pet with someone else can feel a little vulnerable because they’re family. I care for animals the same way I care for my own, with a lot of attention, patience, and love. I’m careful about things like doors, gates, and sticking to their normal routine because I know how important those small details are. Whether I’m in your home or they’re in mine, I want them to feel safe, relaxed, and genuinely cared for, not just “watched.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Selkirk

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Selkirk on Rover is $69.38 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 229 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Selkirk. 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 Selkirk 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 Selkirk 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 Selkirk 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.
