“I was extremely nervous hiring someone for drop in visits for my boy because of how anxious he can get sometimes but Lyndsay has been phenomenal. He's always happy and fed and I can tell he is very comfortable with her. Couldn’t have asked for someone better to take care of him. Thank you Lyndsay!”

“Cindy is wonderful! Truly an animal lover like she states in her profile. Never a worry when I know Cindy is taking care of of the fur babies, she goes above and beyond.”
“First time using Rover and my cat was well taken care of while I was away. Instructions were followed and Lisa even went above and beyond what was asked. Will ask her to come back for sure!”
“We booked with Paula for our first ever dog drop-in visits and are so glad we did. Paula, gave continual and great updates (with pictures), of the dogs schedule and visits. The pups looked very happy. When we got home, our house was still very tidy- as she cleaned up after our pets. We recommend Paula and will book with her again. Thank you!”
About: I have lots of experience with dogs, I've always had one growing up and I was responsible for feeding as well as regularly walking the dog. I love dogs so much and would be overjoyed at the opportunity to work with so many lovely dogs. I am currently only casually employed at an office job so I have plenty of time in my schedule to play with and take care of as many new friends as needed! I will make sure to abide by all information provided to me and I can efficiently and safely complete any task. From administering medications, tidying messes and bathroom areas to bathing, crating or playing with your pets, I will make sure to uphold the highest level of safety and care with all pets, that is my priority.
About: I have 10 years of caring/volunteer experience, including small animals, fish and reptiles. I have 2+years of professional dog training and open doggy daycare experience. I am certified in pet first aid and have my certificate in fear free shelter I’m currently Pet sitting full time, so I have plenty of time to spend with your fur babies! I am available to board in your house on weekends and during the week if not already booked! During the times I am booked, I am available for walks and drop ins! I like to stick to your pet’s schedule as best as I can! Some pets are very stuck in their routines and I like to keep it that way to avoid as much stress, as it is can already be stressful with Mom and or Dad gone. As I have mentioned, I am a full time sitter, so there will be 24 hour supervision! If there is a point during my stay that I may have to leave for an errand or two, I will kennel if able. But not before a bathroom break and a walk! If you have a yard there will be no outside with out any supervision, unless told otherwise. When it comes to walking for safety, I do keep extra poop bags, treats and an extra leash if needed! Also for walking, if your dog has certain FOCUS queues, do not hesitate to mention, as they help when crossing paths with others!

About: From showing dogs professionally, to grooming cats and dogs and owning them all my life; I have the knowledge and experience to handle any pet with the care based on their individual needs. I also offer grooming and training, as well as drop in pet sitting where I check in on your pets while you’re gone. I currently work very part time (Wednesday-Friday and the occasional Saturday) and have more than enough time for my own pets and want to spend all the extra time helping care for yours! Currently I am available Saturday-Tuesday just about any time. Wednesdays I have time in the morning and can do an evening drop in after work around 9pm Thursday and Fridays I am off around 4 and am available in the evening. I have 2 dogs, 3 cats and 2 fish tanks. I balance all of them along with having 2 children as well. To me, caring for pets means they are family and should be included as such. During a regular week my dogs are given a variation of walking, training and mental stimulation games. The cats can be found lounging with us in our past times or playing amongst themselves.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Sherwood Park
Stacey is fantastic! She took the time to meet with us and our kitties beforehand, played and cared for them like her own, communicated very regularly throughout, and even helped putting away our grocery order so we could get back into our routine right away! We won’t have anyone else care for our cats from now on 😊
Lyndsay is amazing. Our dogs love her, and she goes above and beyond. Quick to connect and send updates. Her pictures are also top notch! I can't thank Lyndsay enough for everything that came up while she was doing her visits, how she handled it all, and just how fantastic she is.
Cara is absolutely amazing, she’s treats our baby bleu like her own. She always gives updates on the visits also pictures and videos. I would highly recommend Cara to anyone who needs her services. She follows our commands and goes over the top for our boy. 🙂 Thank you Cara!! Chaunce & Taylor 💙
Kim was excellent. She did drop in visits for our 4 cats and cleaned their litter boxes and replenished food and water. She was always punctual and played with the cats. They even greeted her when she came to the door. I would highly recommend Kim and her services.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Sherwood Park on Rover is $24.42 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 1,194 sitters on Rover for Pet Sitting in Sherwood Park. About 87% of Sherwood Park 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.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or travelling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer poop breaks during a Sherwood Park stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover based on what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
You can coordinate how much supervision you want directly with your sitter. While every sitter’s schedule varies, here are some examples of supervision by pet care service:
- Boarding or doggy day care: Many sitters can provide frequent companionship because they design their day specifically around the pets in their care or work from home.
- House sitting: Your sitter generally stays in your home for the requested duration, which may include overnight care. They may step out briefly to visit other pet clients, but your home remains their primary base.
- Drop-in visits or dog walking: These can be scheduled in 30- or 60-minute windows (and can be shorter or longer at your request) to help your pet receive dedicated attention and care during those specific times.
Interested in constant or 24/7 care? This service often incurs an additional fee but many sitters are happy to discuss this option with you.
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 Sherwood Park 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.
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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
