“Excellent care, meticulous attention to detail, naturally curious and interested, truly a great find. This is exactly what we seek in a pet sitter. Jaiden will be our preferred per sitter whenever we're away. If you're in Sherwood Park, I strongly recommend her.”
“Lynette came for an hour drop in with our puppy, while we were at work. She sent lots of updates and pictures! It was reassuring to know he was cared for and getting the attention he needed. Our pup is excited to have Lynette back!”
“Stacey has been great with drop in visits for our furbaby Ginny. We highly recommend Stacey she is friendly, professional, has great communication and great with our dog.”
“Cindy was absolutely fantastic with our cats during her drop-in visit! We felt completely at ease knowing they were in such capable and caring hands. She followed all our instructions perfectly and even sent us adorable photos and updates, which we really appreciated. It was clear she genuinely enjoys animals, and our cats seemed very comfortable with her. We'll definitely be booking Cindy again in the future – highly recommended!”
“Rebecca was awesome, quick communication and on time. Took the time to do a meet and greet before hand as my pup is very nervous around new people. Blue warmed up very quick! Highly recommend.”
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 am not taking new clients at this time as I cannot offer 24/7 care as I am now working full time. Thank you and I wish you all the best! 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 do not offer 24/7 care as I work full time, so during my stay I can/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!
“Kianna is great! We have used her for overnights and drop ins with prefect results every time. Communication is fast and clear. She’s great with the dogs and dependable.”
“Niki took care of my pet for an entire week - 2 drop ins per day. She has been amazing, sent me updates and pictures. Very reliable and nice! Highly recommend. Easy to communicate with.”
About: Hello! I have several years of experience working in doggy daycares, dog grooming studios, and providing dog walking and sitting services. I’m also a lifelong dog owner and currently have an Old English Sheepdog of my own. As a Registered Social Worker, I bring patience, reliability, and strong communication skills to every pet I care for. I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your furry family member, and I’ll make sure your pet receives plenty of care, attention, and affection while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I currently work from home doing part time hours. I can be flexible with my schedule to meet the needs of my clients. I’m trustworthy, reliable and have experience with senior dog care, puppies, all breed and sizes of dogs. I have a fully fenced yard for when they do need to go outside. I can tailor my services to what your dog’s needs are. I want to ensure I provide a home away from home. The dog’s well being and care is my number one priority.
About: Hi, I'm Madeline! I'm absolutely crazy about anything cat related, and seriously can't get enough of them (have you seen their little toe beans - adorable!) I've never not had a pet, they're just part of the family. While I haven't pet sit in a professional environment, I've grown up with multiple cats and dogs, and have over 10 years of personal experience with my furry friends. From a hyper little kitten to an older dog, I've enjoyed it all and would love to be part of your pet(s) day. I'm comfortable with feeding, litter box cleaning, brushing, playing, socializing, and any other task needed that your cats require. At this point, I think I'm the cat's servant :) No cats? No problem! I also have experience with dogs and would love to watch them too. I'm familiar with dog walking, feeding, cleaning, playing, and any other task needed for them to be most comfortable and happy. I can also take care of fish (I have 2 aquariums of my own) and would be open to watching over them if required, with duties including light feedings. I can't wait to meet all of your pets! I'm currently working part time, so I would have plenty of time to watch your pets while you're away. I'm happy to do drop in visits during the day, or stay overnight so they'd be most comfortable. I have three highly demanding cats, who I love more than anything. They all get plenty of snuggles (one is sitting on me as I type this), scheduled dinner breaks (in specific locations since they all require a different cat food) and daily exercise, with plenty of play time! They get daily litter box cleanings, fresh food and water, and different forms of stimulation depending on their mood. Sometimes it's chasing toys and going bonkers, and other times they just need a little extra love and attention. My dogs go for daily walks in our neighborhood, and often play fetch in the backyard to get all their energy out! When inside they get lots of love and attention, with potty breaks throughout the day as needed. I also have experience fish keeping, and would be happy to make sure your little aquatic friends are thriving!
“Fern is very reliable, responsive and a great communicator. I will happily booked her again to take care of our cat . I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter in Sherwood Park.”
“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!”
“Alyssa is a sweet soul who I know cares for animals very much. She goes out of her way to make sure my Raja has love and attention, play time, outside supervised time in the sun and she is also able to proficiently give her the meds she needs! I also love that she gives really detailed notes on how my baby is doing. She is always on time as well :)”
“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!”
“Lisa was great, she sent updates every day, she is trustworthy and easy to communicate! Also flexible and kind when requested to add an extra day last minute and put Amazon packages inside the house!”
“From the moment my dog met Andrea, she was enamored. Pepper is normally suspicious and barks at people who come to the door, but I think Andrea has such a calm quiet gentle demeanor, that Pepper felt comfortable with her right away! The cats, too, came right over and were mesmerized. Andrea carefully listened to and took note of all instructions, was easy to communicate with throughout, and I had absolutely no worries leaving my pets and home in her care. She got some great photos of my pets during visits, too, so I could see how content they were. Andrea also noticed and responded to my senior dog's needs in terms of energy levels--walking her when she was energetic and staying chill when she needed that. I highly recommend Andrea!”
“Anita was awesome. Our Cat was not mad at us when we got home. So he was well cared for. We were updated regularly with pictures. Kids saw the pictures and missed the Cat, but were happy to see them. Thank you Anita.”
About: I have a lot of compassion for animals and they bring joy into my life.I grew up on an acreage and had all kinds of animals.Dogs are my favorite because they love you unconditionally and make you feel better when you’ve had a bad day.I take care of my own pets like they are my children.I will look after your dogs like they were my own.I will spoil them and snuggle with them.I find that dogs gravitate to me , they can feel when someone really loves them.What sets me apart from other pet sitters and dog walkers is that I have a big heart towards animals and they will get the greatest care while they are in my home or just going for a nice walk. It fits well as I work but have days off and my daughter is home often, she’s 19.My hubby comes home every day at lunch for an hour, so he lets the dogs out . I have a big fenced yard where dogs can run and play.I prefer not getting dogs that arent spayed or neutered as it’s been a problem in the past.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Sherwood Park on Rover is $24.42 per visit (as of September 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 1,147 sitters on Rover for Pet Sitting in Sherwood Park. About 89% 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.
