“Laura is always reliable and our girl Frankie loves her! Frankie has some serious separation anxiety, so it is a big ask for someone to stay with her at all time. We really appreciate Laura's willingness to take this on.”
“Kelsey took wonderful care of our Pippi. I appreciated the regular updates and good communication while we were away and hope to have her (and Frankie!) take care of Pippi again :)”
“Very happy with David’s boarding services. Our pup can be nervous with new people but David has made her comfortable, and I see her getting special treats and being taken on off leash nature adventures. David has also been very accommodating with drop off and pick up times when we had scheduling constraints on our end. Would definitely rebook and recommend!”
“Dawn and Ken were excellent hosts for our pup Seamus! It was our first time leaving him with another family, but he made himself right at home and seemed like he barely noticed we were gone. Will definitely look them up again in the future!”
“Helin and Seung are the sweetest, most caring pet lovers I have ever met! The are communicative, enthusiastic and sooo attentive to Nero’s needs. Nero bonded with their kids immediately, and even made friend with Luna, who was not too sure at first, but warmed up to him pretty quickly! I highly recommend these wonderful human beings to any of you who are looking for more than just pet sitting. Nero is learning new tricks!”
“Alanna was an amazing sitter for my dog Hunter, he is a senior dog with mobility challenges and she worked so hard to accommodate his needs. I loved the updates and pictures she send. I would definitely recommend Alanna as she was so understanding and caring.”

“We had a great experience boarding with Criofan, she is kind, caring, and wonderful with animals. Her home and beautiful fenced property are set up thoughtfully to provide a fun and safe environment with lots of fresh air and exercise. We really appreciated the great communication and photo updates. Our dog was well cared for and made some new best friends. Thanks again!”
“Michelle was absolutely wonderful with my high-energy working dog! She was communicative, send awesome pictures throughout the stay, and was just wonderful in general. Thank you Michelle!”
“Jena was amazing to work with. She was so enthusiastic and loving toward our pup. Her communication before and during was clear and consistent and we received lots of fun pictures and videos! I instantly felt safe leaving our baby with her. We will definitely hire Jena again for any time we need care again. Thanks Jena :)”
“Bjorn had a great time with Bill and Gerie, and we felt fully confident that they'd care for him like he was their own dog. Their property is beautiful and provided lots of space for him to roam around and nap outside (his favourite). Bill responded quickly to our messages, which was great too! We'd definitely book with them again.”
“My dog, who is getting old, seemed to get along fine with Dani. He was happy to see us, but I saw that my dog was giving some love to Dani before we left. Thanks for watching our dog, sending pictures and reassuring that all was good with our dog.”
“Vicki was very quick to respond and was able to accommodate our pup on short notice. Has a very large back yard for dogs to run and play, which is essential for longer boarding times. Will certainly use again. Thanks Vicki!”
“Louis hadn’t seen Iris for several months but once he saw her, he went crazy with excitement! I know that he is in the best care when he is with Iris and that he is super happy to spend time with her.”
“Tiana is great!! She is one of the best Rover caregivers I’ve ever worked with. We are in Sidney for just a couple of months, and I’m so glad I found her. She is very quick to respond and very easy to work with. She has a great fenced yard and friendly pups. Ben played all weekend. Tiana also sends lots of pics. We were never left wondering how Ben was doing because pics showed up multiple times a day. We look forward to working with her in the near future.”
About: Both my partner and I grew up with rescue dogs of all sizes, ages, and breads and had our own senior husky up until the end of 2025. We both have years of experience with both reactive and non-reactive dogs. The breads we have the most experience with are huskies, boarder collies, labs, doodles, and Great Pyrenees but are comfortable with any and all doggies. My partner works fully remotely so is at home all day during the week. I myself work 5 hour days 4 days a week. So any pets will very very rarely be left unattended. We are both very active individuals with routine gym sessions, outdoor walks, and runs as we are so close Thetis Lake. Our home has a fully fenced in yard with some room to play. Our yard is additionally fully surrounded by a large hedge that offers good privacy. We also have room for any crates if needed for you pup. As mentioned previously, it is rare that your dog will be left alone during the day so frequent bathroom breaks are available.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Sooke
Laura has always been so accommodating and flexible with booking, as well as boarding. She kept care of our dog by boarding, our cat by house visiting, and checked in on our chickens all in our vacation time! She has been super communicative with giving us updates about how our animals are doing and made us feel confident that they were in good care. Thanks again, Laura!

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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
You and your Sooke sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
