“It’s been a few visits now for day care, and my dog has come to love this place. They have taken such great care of him, you can tell he’s well taken care of. My dog has an anxiety, caused by previous years in a kennel. Now he’s seems a lot calmer, but the real test will come for when he will be staying overnight.”
“So happy we found Lynette! She goes above and beyond for our Ajax. We didn’t expect her to walk him in that short period of time he is in her care but she still walks him. Lynette is now one of our regular daycare for our dog. We are also happy that she updates us all throughout the day. My dog is so happy and content coming home and he is always excited to go back to Lynette’s house. ☺️☺️”
“We had a great experience with Jill ! We left our Boston Terrier for a few hours, and everything went perfectly. Our dog was well cared for, and we felt completely at ease. Thank you for taking such good care of him. We would definitely book again!”
“Marie is a wonderful and caring sitter. She took my dog in last-minute, and cared for her like she was her own. Her house is well prepared for hosting and she sent me frequent updates on how my pup was doing. She also took some beautiful frame-worthy pictures of my girl. I would recommend Marie to anyone!”
“Ana was absolutely amazing with our dogs. She was so welcoming and accommodating fitting us in last minute for a daycare stay. I would trust her with my pets anytime.”
“Our dog Ollie seemed to be super happy when we picked him up! They made sure to ask for any instructions for our dog and had plenty of space to separate Ollie from another dog they were watching. They let Ollie outside several times which he loves and they were great people to contact they answered right away and were friendly! I would definitely book with them again!”
“Stella had such a wonderful time with Vivianna and her pups. I got pictures throughout the day of Stella outside playing, and going for a walk. I highly recommend Vivianna she clearly loves dogs!!”
“Elizabeth was fantastic! She took wonderful care of my dog and kept me updated with frequent messages and pictures, which i really appreciated. She was also very accommodating with my work schedule. My dog came home happy and worn out after full day with her. I’ll absolutely be booking with Elizabeth again; highly recommend!”
“Such a great experience. Very kind and thoughtful. I hope to use them again in the near future! Highly recommend. You can clearly see the love they have for dogs. It shines through just by how well they take care of them. Thank you 😊”
About: We both grew up raising dogs, and have been dog-sitting for our family and friends for many years. We love all dogs big and small, old and young, everyone is welcome! We're a young couple working from home with no kids - we've got nothing but time and space for your pets! We always take the dogs out for multiple walks per day, including any toilet trips needed throughout (we never make a pet wait more than a couple minutes to go outside). Since we are home all day, your pets never go unsupervised. We only allow one pet at a time, so your puppy will be safe and cared for with our undivided attention. Since our yard is unfenced, all walks and trips to the bathroom are leashed.
“My dog really enjoyed his time with Heather. She made sure Toby was looked after and even made some treats for him. My dog is a handful but she was patient and very attentive. It was already a hit for my dog and I am glad it was a successful meet and greet experience.”
“Harika is an excellent sitter. I contacted her to dog sit (with drop off in 30 minutes) and she responded promptly and accepted my request. Then later I asked for an hour extension and she accommodated me. I ended up being an extra half hour. During my dog’s stay (5 1/2 hrs) she sent me many pictures, fed and walked my dog. The home is very nice and clean. I would absolutely request services again when I have to be in Edmonton. Thanks again!”
“She was on time, ready for us to come over. I was impressed with her knowledge of dogs and their behaviour. I was worried leaving my puppy in a strange place, so went over the day before just to introduce him and myself. We had a nice chat and I felt better after meeting her and seeing how she related to the other dog in her care. All went well and we will arrange another visit when we need care for Roger. Marcia Forth, dog Mom.”
“Ana is a complete lifesaver. We had major renovations start in our home earlier than expected and my dog is 14 years old this month. No way I could leave hom at home with strangers making sounds at all hours of the day! She was able to take him in last minute, and provided many updates, photos, and videos throughout the day. Honestly, he is so excited to go he screams when he knows we are almost there. She takes better care of him that I probably do. I highly recommend Ana. She is really nice, takes great care of animals, and clearly loves them. Even my old mop of a boy.”
“I'm so thankful to have found Jodeen. From the start she made the doggy daycare process so easy. Great communication, straight forward setup. When I'm at the office I'm so glad Dolly, my dog, had somewhere wonderful to hang out with her doggy pals.”
“Our dog had a great stay with Nicole! She has a great yard and provided us with videos and pics showing us how much fun our dog was having. She also has an upstairs window seat that my dog enjoyed very much.”

There are 391 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in Tamarack. About 90% of Tamarack 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.
Your dog’s first day care experience is a big milestone! To help your pup settle in comfortably, we recommend:
- Food and treats portioned for the day, with feeding instructions
- Your dog's leash and collar (ensure tags are up-to-date)
- Any seasonal gear, such as paw-safe wax for winter or a cooling vest for the summer
- Medication, if applicable, with clear dosage notes
- Any special care instructions or training tips to help your sitter provide the most personalized care possible
Tip: Upload this information directly through the Rover app before drop-off. The more context you provide, the better your sitter can tailor the day to your dog.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Tamarack commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
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 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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in AB ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines such as the DHPP or DA2PP, Rabies, and Bordetella.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
