“Oliver stayed with Ana for two days/one night while i was away for work. I received many photo and video check ins from Ana throughout his stay which made me feel less nervous about leaving him with a new person. Oliver had a great time with Ana and I will definitely book with her again!”
“Mariana and her family was amazing! They took Xylo on lots of walks and made sure she was fed her medicine! When Xylo didn’t eat they went out of their way to buy chicken for her and tried to get her more! There was plenty of updates as well!”
“Katrina, Ryan, and Rocky made leaving Artemis for a week a breeze! Even as an only dog at home, it was nice to have another one to show him the ropes. I appreciated the pictures and updates. He was happy to see me at pick up but also wanted both of us to stay! I'd happily board him with them again”
“We have brought our dog to Tracy and Christopher many times and they treat her like their own! Would 10/10 recommend bringing your pets to this lovely family!”

“My baby came home so tired, loved, and happy! We got regular updates and so many photos. I didn’t have to worry for a second. It was a wonderful experience and we will definitely be using Stacey’s services again.”
“What an attentive sitter! Regularly sent photos and videos (updates) on how my dog was doing. Very prompt (on time) with pick-ups and drop-offs. I really appreciate the extra care they gave to my dog, as it was her first overnight with a sitter and she was nervous. They also came to me for the meet—and-greet, which I was very grateful for (as I don’t drive). I’ll definitely be asking them for puppy sleepovers again in the future.”
“Katelyn and her family made my little guy feel right at home, communication was great, she sent photos abd provided updates if I needed. I would definitely rebook another time. 😊”
St. Albert dog parents share their Rover experiences
We felt so confident leaving our pup with these two. Their calm and accepting manner from the get go was exceptional and they welcomed our dog into their home like he was their own. We loved that he was walked regularly and that they communicated daily with us during our absence. We would not hesitate to leave him again as he was so happy and settled in their home. We appreciate this feeling.
Luna had a wonderful time and Im half convinced she would have liked to stay when we picked her up! She really liked having a playmate for her boarding. I appreciated the updates and the pictures we received to let us know she was enjoying her stay. We would definitely board with Natasha (and family and Dexter!) again.
This was my first time ever booking a dog sitter, and the whole process was honestly so easy and stress free. Vanessa was incredibly accommodating on very short notice and even took the time to meet up beforehand so my dog could meet her family and make sure it was a good fit for everyone. She was amazing with communication from start to finish and was so loving and caring with Joey. I got lots of updates and pictures while I was away, which I really appreciated. Vanessa is a fantastic dog caregiver and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their pup.
Pixie had a great time at Melody’s place. She has a friendly pup, and they got along, so Pixie was not really bored! She has a loving family, which Pixie got a lot of attention from, and she really loves that. She also sent me pictures and videos of her, which really helped ease my mind knowing she’s safe and having fun. Her place is not that far from Edmonton, so I will definitely book her again.
This was our first time using the Rover app to find long-term stay with a sitter. Not only was at our first time. It was a very last minute extremely short notice request. Sarah was very flexible and very accommodating and understanding given our situation and worked quickly with us to arrange a meet and greet and make the required arrangements for this transition to happen. I was very impressed with Sarah and her professionalism and love for animals. It was such a huge relief to find someone so quickly and to have that peace of mind leaving our dog on such short notice. Sarah provided daily feedback, updates and photos which further put our minds at ease while being away. We will absolutely use her again. It is very apparent that Sarah has a love for animals and takes great pride in her ability to do so. Her experience and compassion speak volumes.
