“Naomi is very prompt and on time, which we appreciate so much! Our pups are not the easiest as our Jax is not the most trusting but Naomi is so patient with our babies. We will definitely have her again when we come back.”
About: Hi, I’m Jared I am available for one or two week sits over the winter in the sea to sky region including Vancouver. At the bottom of the pictures are snapshots of over 40 5 star ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ reviews from a past profile. I’m highly experienced and love love love animals ❤️ 🐶 I would love ❤️ to meet you & your pet. Don’t be thrown off by the Whistler reviews I have posted. I am available throughout the sea to sky region. I live in Squamish. ✅ Do you want to go out for a day or evening in Whistler, worry free? ✅ Want to know your loved one is being loved, adored, and exercised? ✅ Don’t want to rush home or back to your hotel? I would happily be your dog’s companion and care giver for the time you need. 👨🎓I am an environmental scientist working predominantly from home and have years of experience looking after dogs. I have done this all over the sea to sky region and over 5 countries. 🌎 Pet sitting has also taken be abroad, pet sitting in Norway, Portugal, and France. When I dog sit we go for long walks or runs or whatever form of exercise is requested & give LOTS of love & cuddles. I do not have a pet of my own as I tend to travel as much as possible, so instead I love other people’s dogs instead! ❤️ If you are looking for a clean and tidy, caring and responsible individual to care and love your buddy, please be in touch. 🐶 PLEASE NOTE: *Day sits that go past 8 hours are charged at $10 per additional hour *Additionally, and I really hate to say it but it has happened several times already where a dog comes in and immediately pees on furniture either out of nervousness or to mark their territory, I get it. If I were a dog in a new environment I might also feel the need. That being said (sigh) if your darling is past puppy age and does this there will be an additional $150 fee for carpet cleaning. This is the direct cost to me and their minimum service fee. I hope you understand. If so, please write “WE LOVE DOGS” when you inquire about a booking. I look forward to meeting your loved one. I work from home with a lot of flexibility and would love to look after your sweetheart. Lots of potty breaks and at least 1 hour of exercise/breaks per day based on your dog’s needs. I live in a house and Squamish is full of great trails and some off leash parks. I have lots of time to dedicate to the love and care of your pets. I send regular updates with photos via this app or text. Requested information about your pet I love all dogs and feel comfortable with them all, I am comfortable administering medications as needed. How is your dog with other dogs, people, and children? Is your dog neutered or spayed? What is the age? Is the dog crate trained, will he/she be using the crate? Is your dog house trained – as in doesn’t go to the bathroom in the house, does not destroy household items? WHAT TO BRING: These are suggested optional items you may want to pack so your dog has all he/she needs. ❤️ Dog bed ❤️ Treats ❤️ Towel for those wet days ❤️ Ball or other toys ❤️ Food or medicine if needed ❤️ Leash of course 😊 ❤️ Poop bags. I usually have extra if you don’t have any
About: While cats are my specialty, I love all animals and am comfortable caring for small to medium friendly dogs! I’m happy to do drop in visits, walks, feeding, and companionship throughout the day as needed, however overnights are preferred (for both cats and dogs) because I don’t drive, but also because I know most pets are more comfortable in their own environment. My availability changes weekly due to my job (server at a busy restaurant in DT Squamish), but this also allows for lots of flexibility and extra time to spend with your fur baby! I like to make sure to follow your pets routine and schedule as best as possible! While I cannot have any visits at my place, I’m happy to do drop ins, feedings, walks and overnights at the owners place :)
About: I've been around dogs and cats my entire life and have volunteered at a local animal shelter. I'm patient, responsible, and truly enjoy caring for pets of all ages and personalities. I’m currently working part time and I make my own schedule, so I have enough time to attend to your pups needs! I understand the importance of communication and I’ll always try to adapt to schedules. I live in an apartment without yard, but I can tailor activities depending on your pets needs. I enjoy being active and going outside, but I also have a great time if your pet prefers quality time while staying inside.
About: Your pets next best friend 🧡 🐕🦺🐩🐕🐶🐈🐈⬛🐱 I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life—dogs, cats, even rabbit, hampsters and reptiles—and I honestly couldn’t imagine life without them. Caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I’ve looked after everything from energetic puppies to wise senior dogs, from tiny lapdogs to large working breeds, and I find something special in each one. No matter their quirks or personalities, I’ll love and care for them as if they were my own. I am not allowed pets at my home but outside is the best place where dogs are happy and so am I. I'm also happy to care for them in their own home and do check-ins. Whether your pup needs consistent training, peaceful walks, adventurous forest outings, refreshing swims, or simply some cozy downtime, I'll make sure they’re happy and fulfilled. My German Shepard passed away a while back. I often care for a family members lovely Blue Heeler/Bordercolie mix who is high energy and loves to fetch, hike, and swim, she has a wonderful intuition for when to give space to other dogs and when to play. With me, your dog will be loved, understood, and cared for every step of the way. I am currently highly available. I do not have a very busy schedule at this time as I am off work for a while. 👍 Take regular bathroom breaks, and getting outside for excersize. Regular scheduled feeding routine. And mental stimulation such as training. Positive fun loving alpha energy. Sticking to routine with gentle affection and positive reinforcement.
About: I’m a dog lover with a friendly dog, Ollie, who enjoys making new dog friends. Whether you’re skiing in Whistler or away on a trip, I’ll care for your dog like my own—providing plenty of love, attention, and adventures! Ollie gets along great with most dogs, but due to a few past experiences, he’s not the best match with German Shepherds or Huskies. He gets along best with chill dogs that have low/medium energy and are respectful of his boundaries. Prior to accepting new clients- a meet & greet is required to make sure it is a good fit for everyone :) As a teacher, I work M-F from 8-4. Your pet would need to be okay being at home during those hours. I can do a short walk before work and a long walk or hike after work. Evenings and weekends are for adventuring with the doggos, either hiking or mountain biking :) I have the summers off, as well as 2 weeks over Christmas and 2 weeks off in March. My house is puppy proof and dog friendly. I will care for your dog like it is my own, and make sure their needs are met. My preference is to board dogs in my own home rather than housesit.
About: I’ve had pets my whole life and am very experienced and comfortable taking care of cats and dogs. I have at a much younger age volunteered at the SPCA. I am a part-time flight attendant and find myself with a lot of time with days off and available during typical business hours where you might need some assistance. My schedule is always different. I have a fenced yard in a safe neighborhood. My husky loves to play and is friendly. We also have 2 cats that are used to dogs but we can only watch dogs that are cat friendly.
About: I have a genuine love for animals and have proven to be a trustworthy owner and pet sitter. I owned a dog/cats for 10+ years My time right now is quite flexible as I am a wedding photographer with very few bookings. I would be available for in house sitting. I am diligent about pets being fed on time, getting appropriate exercise and love, keeping client's home clean and pets safe, adhering to client instructions.
About: Hi! I’m Morgan. I’ve been fortunate enough to have the privilege to grown up on Vancouver Island, surround myself in nature on a daily basis and reach peaks with views that leave you in Awe. I’m a nurse at the hospital, some days are harder then others but I’m looking for a new type of work to throw into the mix that makes me feel good, animal therapy! I believe it’s called. I’m responsible, friendly, respectful and reliable. :) I’d be more then happy to take your precious fur baby off your hands for an afternoon or a night and take it hiking, to the beach or on a stroll around the neighbourhood. I need some fluffy cuddles in my life these days. :) I have a flexible work schedule at the hospital and when I’m not working, I’m out on the trails running or walking! Having a pet to spend time with would fit into my schedule well I’ve had many pets over for sleepovers and have also stayed at friends places or people in need a pet sitter and I love it. Being apart of their routine, feeding, movement, cuddles. I love it all.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Squamish is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $49 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
There are 3,338 sitters on Rover for Dog Sitting in Squamish. About 84% of Squamish 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.
Before the first visit, give your sitter clear written instructions covering your pet’s feeding routine, medication, litter or toilet care, preferred activities, behaviour, and anything that may make them anxious. This is a good idea, even if you’ve had a Meet & Greet.
Your instructions should explain where supplies, such as food, treats, medication, leashes, litter and cleaning supplies are kept. Include your vet’s details and an emergency contact, and let your sitter know what signs could indicate that something is wrong.
For some visits, you may want to confirm how the sitter will access your home and identify any rooms or areas that are off-limits. Update these instructions whenever your pet’s routine or needs change.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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.
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 Squamish 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.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
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.
