“Darlene is great at what she does. She has taken care of our home and pets twice now, and we love her. She updates us as needed. She takes care of the place and leaves no foot print. We are so lucky too have known her, and will continue to hire her services. Our dogs love her.”
“Excellent! Emma is wonderful house/dog sitter. She is friendly and took good care of my dogs. She was always sending pictures of my dogs while we were away. I trust her and would get her to sit again.”
“Thank you, Chloe, for housesitting and taking such good care of my dogs! It was great knowing how things were going and getting updates along the way! Was great that they could stay relaxed in their environment without the stress of a kennel.”
“Shaina was very caring and professional in looking after Lily who has special dietary requirements and can be a little needy -attention wise. She kept me in touch with pictures and updates. The house was spotless; couldn't even tell someone was there-including the dog. I would recommend Shaina to anyone looking for a good reliable pet sitter.”
“Jamielinn was extraordinary with our socially inept tiger, earning her trust in within a short period of time, and treating her like a Princess. Jamielinn went above and beyond looking after our house as well which was fantastic. She maintained regular communication throughout, sending frequent photo and video updates that kept us completely at ease. We are delighted with her service and are confident we will engage Jamielinn’s expertise again.”
“Naomi looked after our three little dogs while we were away for a week. She took great care of them and they had a wonderful week. Would definitely have Naomi back again in the future! Thank you!!!”
“Pam is a little God sent Fairy 😊 Pups were pampered, had a spa day and were taken care of as if they were her very own. Pam is simply fantastic above being reliable and caring.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for many years and began fostering in 2020, which is how I met my dog, Levi — my foster fail! Since then, I’ve continued to foster and have gained experience caring for dogs with different personalities, backgrounds and needs. Since 2024, I’ve also volunteered with the Canadian Animal Task Force at their spay and neuter clinics. Dogs are very much part of our family. I have a 14 year old daughter who is also comfortable around dogs, so visiting pups get plenty of attention and affection in our home. Between fostering, volunteering and caring for my own dogs, I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities and understand that every dog needs something a little different to feel safe and comfortable. I work from home, so your pup will have company and attention throughout the day. There’s plenty of time for potty breaks, playtime, walks and cuddles, and they’ll also have Levi around for some four-legged company. I have a large, fully fenced yard with plenty of room to play and explore safely. I’m home throughout the day and will follow your dog’s usual routine as closely as possible. My dog, Levi, will also be here for company. I know every dog is different, so I’ll make sure they have the space, attention and downtime they need to feel comfortable in my home.
“Robbin watched our 2 dogs and our house for a weekend! She was incredible and so trustworthy. She left the place pristine, Moon and Sunny were so happy with her. And had the biggest smiles when we got home! Robbin was great with communication and we will be using her again as long as she’s happy to sit for us 😊”
“It was my first time working with a sitter for my 12 year Dachshund and I didn’t know what to expect and only hoped that it would be the most suitable option for her. Robyn has proved herself to be wonderful with my dog and a great person to care for her. My dog warmed up to Robyn the first time they met, which doesn’t happen often. Robyn listened to and took note of my concerns and cautions to take for my dog to prevent any dietary and spinal issues she is sensitive to. When I came home after 5 days my dog was happy and very calm. Robyn is trustworthy and responsible. I will have her for my dog again any time I need to go away and she is available.”
“Tanisha was wonderful with our two dogs! She took great care of them over the weekend, and we felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. Thanks to her, we were able to enjoy a weekend on the trails without worrying. We’d happily book her again.”
“Lyra was, without a doubt, the most skilled, patient and friendly dog sitter (and trainer!!!) we have EVER had. Our dogs adored her, and she went above and beyond to train our new rescue dog, working on his fears, barking and leash pulling. I didn’t worry once about either dog, we were updated frequently with pics and training progress, and we came home to HAPPY, brushed dogs and a spotlessly clean house. I can’t recommend Lyra enough!!! Amazing.”
“Alex dog/house sat for us for two weeks. He was very communicative and friendly and provided regular updates and pictures. Our dog loved him. There were zero issues and he left our house very tidy! We are very happy with Alex's services and would definitely book him again!”
“What a godsend Nicholas was for our pups! Our trip away had stressful events, but the care of Pepper and Layla back home wasn’t one. It is clear that Nick adores the company of dogs, and our pups felt the same about him. Also, he could easily handle the 170 lbs of dogs for walks; that is a rare quality in dog sitters. He was communicative, and sent photo and video updates. We will definitely hire Nicholas again.”
“Tianna was great. My boys were well looked after, as well as my place. She took care to ensure it looked like it did when I left. She was great with my pups and even brought them a special treat. I've already requested my next stay for her to watch them again.”
“We booked Jasmine to house sit our pup Lenny while we were on holidays for a week. Jasmine was very professional during the booking process, very kind during our initial meet and greet and provided regular updates with pictures throughout our time away. I felt confident that Lenny was in good hands while we were away, which was reassuring. She left the house in great condition as well! Would recommend Jasmine and will use her for future bookings!”

Kayla did amazing watching my many different kinds of animals. She handled different situations very calmly and kept me in the loop the whole time I was away to any problems. She left my home in the exact condition I had left it in which was amazing to come home to, no dirty dishes or anything. I would definitely recommend and rebook Kayla in the future!
Avery took care of our pups and our house for a 3 day , 2 night stay. She came for a meet and greet a couple of days before which was able to put our minds at ease since we’ve never left our 3 dogs with someone before . My husband was very nervous but we were pleasantly surprised when we received pictures from Avery and when we reached out when we were away she responded promptly . Thank you for taking such great care of our pups and our home Avery we’ll certainly be reaching out again!

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Spruce Grove maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Garbage & recycling: Taking garbage bins to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Spruce Grove walking routes, the location of your favourite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
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 Spruce Grove 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!
You can find what you need to review a sitter on their profile before booking with them. Each sitters’s profile on Rover shows verified reviews, a background check, and ratings to give a glimpse of how their previous visits went. You can also use the Meet & Greet to walk through your home, identifying which areas, like your bedroom, are off-limits or not. Requesting details of your home security through the app can also be a good way to have your sitter keep you updated about your home.
If you have security cameras or doorbells, Rover asks that you disclose them to sitters before you book.
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 .
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Payment is handled securely through Rover. For a one-time booking, at the time of checkout when you submit your booking request. This charge will include fees payable to Rover. Your booking is confirmed once the sitter accepts it.
If the request is not accepted, the pending charge is released in 1-7 days. How long it takes to disappear from your account depends on your payment provider.
For eligible recurring weekly services, you are charged for the first week when you book and then each Monday for the upcoming week. You’ll see the full price before you confirm. Always pay through Rover so your booking remains eligible for the Rover Guarantee and support.
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 .
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
