“Emily is a kind and gentle soul. My shy puppy warmed up to her immediately and she always gives thorough, detailed feedback from her visits. She has picked up on different habits and my puppy is very well cared for. As someone who is quite particular about how well my dog is cared for, I would definitely recommend using her!”
“Jen is amazing with our dogs. Our older dog doesn't like many people but he loves Jen. She is kind, affectionate and patient with our dogs. She plays with our puppy until he is good and exhausted and when she takes them for walks she pariently let's them sniff everything till they are happy and satisfied. We love Jen. 10/10 would recommend for anyone's pets!”
“Julia was fantastic! I was at a CKC dog show and Julia showed up on time for our cat Cupcake with no issues. She had it all figured out on her own and I never heard from her once. She did provide little cute updates and photos which were much appreciated! Thank you Julia! We will use you again”

About: Although I have only recently joined Rover, I have been around dogs my entire life and have experience caring for both puppies and seniors! My youngest pup is 3 years old and my oldest is 11 years old. My senior dog has a variety of health issues, so I am familiar with administering medications to keep your pups happy and healthy. My senior dog is also a bit more anxious, so I am fairly knowledgeable on making a nervous dog a bit more comfortable. Although I did not grow up with cats, I have lots of experience cat sitting for friends and am very comfortable playing and hanging out with them. I am here to make sure your furry friends feel all the love when you’re away at work or when life gets busy! I recently graduated from the University of Alberta and am working part-time as I settle into the post-grad life, so I have tons of time to check in on your furry friends! I am currently accepting bookings up to 1 day in advance. My schedule is very flexible and I am available every day of the week all day except 1pm-8pm Mondays and Thursdays. As of right now, I am only able to check in on pets in my clients’ homes. Check ins include playing with the pet, giving food/water, administering medications as instructed, going on walks, and cleaning litter boxes as needed. I may also bring some surprise treats depending on your dogs diet :)

I do not use crates unless requested by the owner or if it’s part of your dog’s regular routine. I aim to provide a safe, comfortable, and home-like environment where your dog can relax and feel right at home.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Stony Plain
We could not have asked for a better sitter. She is an absolute gem — thoughtful, reliable, considerate, and completely trustworthy. From the very beginning, she gave us real peace of mind, and it was clear that she genuinely cared. She thinks on her feet, handles things confidently, and goes well beyond simply doing what is expected. Every detail was taken care of, and then some. It is rare to find someone who is not only dependable but also so respectful, kind, and attentive. We would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter. She is truly exceptional, and we are very grateful for everything she did for us.
Jen is a fantastic sitter. She is very attentive and demonstrates compassion and love towards our animals. You can really see just how much she cares about our pup- even after a short amount of time. She is extremely flexible and very responsive. We would highly recommend her!
Shaelynn is a FANTASTIC sitter. I cannot speak more highly of her. She is amazing with our puppy and the two of them have quite a cute bond. She is extremely flexible and accommodating. She is very communicative and demonstrates so much care for our boy! We are so thankful to have her in our pups life.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

There are 1,161 sitters on Rover for Pet Sitting in Stony Plain. About 87% of Stony Plain 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.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or travelling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer poop breaks during a Stony Plain stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover based on what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
You can coordinate how much supervision you want directly with your sitter. While every sitter’s schedule varies, here are some examples of supervision by pet care service:
- Boarding or doggy day care: Many sitters can provide frequent companionship because they design their day specifically around the pets in their care or work from home.
- House sitting: Your sitter generally stays in your home for the requested duration, which may include overnight care. They may step out briefly to visit other pet clients, but your home remains their primary base.
- Drop-in visits or dog walking: These can be scheduled in 30- or 60-minute windows (and can be shorter or longer at your request) to help your pet receive dedicated attention and care during those specific times.
Interested in constant or 24/7 care? This service often incurs an additional fee but many sitters are happy to discuss this option with you.
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 Stony Plain 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a veterinary professional or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means Rover Support will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
