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 Part time and do not offer 24/7 care. I have plenty of time to spend with your fur babies in the mornings and evenings! I am available to board in your house on during the week and weekend 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 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!
“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.”

Thanks so much Fern for the love and care you provided for our family!”
About: At home i have 2 wonderful dogs, I like to teach them basic tricks while taking them on walks. While I take care of your pets I’ll make sure that they’re happy and comfortable while you’re away! I have a flexible schedule. I can try and move some things around to accommodate your pets needs. Make sure you and your pet are happy! Im very by the book and will do whatever it is you need me to do to keep your pet happy. I also am very careful and gentle.
“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!”

“Korinna was very responsive and went over and above to make sure our cat was well taken care of while we were away. I would 100% recommend her for pet sitting! We will definitely use her again :)”
“Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of my fur baby, Catherine! You really did an excellent job! I am so glad I found Catherine. I am new to Edmonton and don't have any friends or family here. I was so stressed wondering who would take care of my dog!! I was nervous about having a stranger come in to my home and take care of my dog, but Catherine was very friendly, dependable, trustworthy and put me at ease when I saw her interacting with my dog. My baby got the royal treatment while I was away! She was so kind and catered to my spoiled little pup. I think this was a bit of a vacation for him, too lol Catherine was kind enough to bring in my mail for me as well. Thank you so much!! I could not be more pleased you were wonderful ❤”

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover with over 30 years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. Pets have always been an important part of my life, and I treat them like family members. I joined Rover because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and want to provide reliable, compassionate care when their owners can't be there. I have experience caring for pets of all ages, including senior pets, and I'm comfortable administering medications and following detailed care instructions. I also have experience with shy and anxious pets and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and earning an animal's trust. Every pet is unique, and I take the time to provide care that matches their individual personality and needs. As a mature, responsible professional, I understand how important trust and communication are. I'll treat your pet as if they were my own and keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident they're happy, safe, and well cared for. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! Caring for animals has always been a part of my daily routine. I currently care for my own senior cat and understand the importance of consistency, reliability, and attention to detail when it comes to pet care. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate walks and drop-in visits throughout the week. When caring for a client's pet, I make it a priority to follow their routine as closely as possible and provide the attention, exercise, companionship, and care their pet needs. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so pet care is something I look forward to rather than simply another task on my schedule. I believe pets are happiest when their normal routine is maintained, so I take the time to learn each pet's individual needs and preferences. During drop-in visits, I'll ensure your pet has fresh food and water, potty breaks as needed, playtime, companionship, and plenty of affection. For cats, I'll also scoop litter boxes and keep their area clean and comfortable. For dogs, I'll provide safe, enjoyable walks tailored to their age, energy level, and abilities. Whether your dog enjoys a brisk walk or a slower-paced stroll with lots of sniffing and exploring, I'll make sure they get the exercise and attention they need. I treat every pet as if they were my own and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
“It was our first time booking rover and I requested Paula since she is also closer to our area. Paula immediately responded to my request and dropped in same evening for a quick visit and getting to know our cat, etc. Since we were travelling the next day, I quickly showed her everything regarding our cat (cat food, letter box, water fountain) and explained her too. Paula is amazing and I instantly felt confident in trusting her with our cat. While we were away, Paula took great care of our cat, fed him, cleaned the litter box and even let us have a quick video chat with him everyday. She even posted his pics and short videos each day of her visit. So happy with Paula and Rover is definitely a peace of mind for “pet parents” like us.”
“Bonnie was great, I had plans fall through and was panicking about someone watching my 3 cats while on holidays for a week then someone mentioned Rover. Bonnie was quick to reply and came to check everything out. Sent great pics of all 3 and even my shy guy came out to visit her which made me feel so much better knowing he was comfortable. I will definitely check with her the next time as well.”
“Sarah-Beth is fantastic and we will definitely seek out her services again. Our adult cat was in the middle of adjusting to the crazy kitten we had brought into our home and Sarah-Beth navigated it all perfectly. We especially appreciated the fun and reassuring photos and videos and we came home to happy cats.”
About: I have grown up with dogs since I was young. I have had dogs of all sizes, and currently have 2 large breed dogs of my own. I have experience walking reactive dogs (please contact about reactivity so we can discuss management :) ). I am off of work for the summer, so am flexible for pet care during the week! I am busy during evenings, so afternoon is best. I have a force free philosophy to dog care. If entering your home, you can be assured that I will keep your dog comfortable, and will not put your dog in a position that they do not want to be in.

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.
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.

There are 1,149 sitters on Rover for Pet Sitting in Sherwood Park. About 88% 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.
