“Christine was so kind, responsive and took great care of my dog. She always stayed in touch, communicated, and made sure my dog had a great time. I really appreciate how accommodating she is and how she made sure he is happy. He looked so happy as if he was ready to stay with his new family lol!”
“Can’t say enough good things about Jena. Our sweet Coco has the best home away from home when Jena takes care of her. I think Coco may even prefer Jena’s home with all the love and attention (and adventures) she gets when visiting. Highly recommend!!!!”
“Kelsey took very good care of my dog 🐶 she’s very kind and kept me in the loop on what my dog was up to throughout the days. I will definitely use her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking to have her sit their fur babies! ❤️”
“Andrea was a great choice to watch Frank for the month that I traveled abroad with my family, She gave me constant updates and was able to cater to Frank's special needs (diabetes). Frank seemed really happy during his stay, so as a dog parent that made me feel very comfortable. I highly recommend Andrea and I will be using her services frequently in the future.”
“We are so lucky to have found Criofan. Our dog had the time of his life roaming free on her fenced property, swimming and playing with other dogs. She took excellent care of Boris and we both highly recommend her and hope Boris has another opportunity to stay on “the farm” as we called it. She was very easy to work with, flexible, posy and communicative, sending us pics every day. Thank you, Criofan!!”
“Even though my dog caused them a lot of trouble, Kevin&Kayla still loved my dog until the end. I'm grateful to them. They are very nice people. If they would allow me, I would like to ask them again.”
“We were so appreciative of the great care Rachel and her family gave our girl Holly while we were out of town. She sent us lots of photos while Holly was there and that really helped my kids see that Holly was safe and having fun. We would absolutely love to book with Rachel again!”
“Our dogs love their holidays with Bill and Gerie. It is always such relief to spend time on holiday without worrying about your fur babies. We are repeat customers who thoroughly recommend Bill and Gerie.”
“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.”
“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!”
“Really responsive and sent pictures throughout my two dog's stay. They were happy and tired when I got them back. Zin didn't want to leave right away so that's telling.”
“We went to New Zealand for 6 weeks. Alisa looked after Lucy and sent us photos. Alisa communicated often and sent us photo’s of Lucy relaxing in the house, playing with Haiko and going on walks. If I asked any questions, Alisa responded quickly. I knew that Lucy was well looked after, and because of Alisa’s care we were never worried and could enjoy our time away. I will only use Alisa and family in future to look after Lucy. I recommend Alisa highly.”
“All the reviews are true, Tiana was fantastic and we felt our dog was well taken care off. We really appreciate the pictures and video updates throughout our trip. Thank you!”
“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!”
“Daisy and family were great with Lucas! Daisy offered time for a meet and greet beforehand which was helpful. Lucas seemed to have a great time and he was cared for well. We’d happily recommend Daisy. Thanks for taking great care of Lucas!”
“Absolutely amazing experience for my little Rey who is a firestorm of a Blue Heeler puppy! So good to have the peace of mind that she was so wonderfully taken care of for the week I was away. Audrey and her family sent updates and photos daily so I knew Rey was having a terrific time. Will be using Audrey again next time we need to have a home away from home.”
“We had such a wonderful experience! Shravistha was incredibly flexible with scheduling and always so accommodating. Both she and her husband took amazing care of Alfie and treated her like she was part of their own family. Communication was excellent throughout the entire stay. She always replied to my messages promptly and kept me updated with photos and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was obvious that Alfie was happy, comfortable, and truly well cared for. Shravistha is warm, kind, and genuinely loves dogs. Knowing Alfie was with her allowed us to completely relax while we were away. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!”
“We left our little boy with them for a couple of days, and they did an excellent job. He made a new friend with their dog, looked really happy when we picked him up, and we had good communication throughout. Thank you so much”
“Kimberly and her family treated Maggie SO WELL! She sent many photos and Maggie was smiling and tuckerd out. I highly recommend having your dog stay with Kimberly and her family. 👍🏼”

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!
Alanna and her family took wonderful care of my Ellie. It was very hard for me to leave her with someone, but they made me feel completely at ease. Alanna was very accommodating with meet and greets and kept great communication while Ellie was with her, always sending photos and updates. She truly went above and beyond, and I’m so grateful.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Sooke home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favourite hang-out spots in your Sooke
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
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 dog, 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.
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 .
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 82% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
