About: Walking just isn’t the same without a smiley goof by your side. Life time of experience walking and enjoying the companionship of pups. I have experience with reactive dogs and understand the care that goes into them. I have also volunteered at the local animal shelter here in Tofino as their dog walker. Available to work in mornings or evenings, and occasional afternoons if the time permits, depending on the length of walks I may be able to fit it into my breaks at work as well! I’m very good at following directions to a point. Whatever care you need in your home I will be sure to respect. I believe that communication is the key to a happy and safe home
About: Hello, I'm Leah and I've been fortunate to live for 20 years on Tla-o-qui-aht territory. I got to share over 14 of those beautiful years with my faithful companion, Daisy. We lost our beloved girl to old age early this year. So, we are for the time being a family with no dog. I'm offering dog care and walking to locals and visitors to Tofino. We live in a house with a big yard, near the field and trails in town. We have a memory foam dog bed with a washable cover and we can accommodate one dog at a time for overnight stays at our house. I have a flexible schedule as I work from home. I can offer dog care any time of day, let me know about your needs. I will keep your pet on a leash while we get to know each other. I will discuss the amount and types of treats you're OK with. I'm happy to listen to your unique circumstances and customize care.
About: Hello! My name is pronounced un-juh-lee and my partner, Abel, and I have been petsitting in Vancouver for over six years now. We both work from home and thus can give around-the-clock attention your pets! We’ve both grown up with pets in our families, and living away from home, we are always eager to be in the company of your lovely furbabies. We’re doing this solely to spend time with some awesome animals and help their parents out when they need it, so don’t hesitate to reach out! We are happy to discuss a price that works for you, especially for longer stays. I can update you with pictures of your pets as often as you would like - every day, every few hours or even minutes - so rest assured you’ll know what they’re up to on walks, house-visits or overnight stays. One of my dogs growing up was half-blind and required extra care, and we have experience sitting blind dogs as well, so if you have a dog with special needs, please let us know and we will do our best to accommodate. We both work from home, so we’re able to spend time with pets the whole day and give them walks in between meetings as needed. We live in a one bedroom apartment, which is perfect for small dogs and less active medium sized dogs. We can take them out for walks and potty breaks as often as needed. [For boarding only] If your dog is medium-sized and high energy inside and/or outside, and may pull on the leash often, they will not be a good fit for us and we request you to find a different sitter. Thank you!
About: I have a lifelong love for animals, growing up with a Dachshund and a French Bulldog. I also fostered an abused dog for two years, patiently helping her regain trust and feel safe enough to be loved again. As a healthcare worker with a flexible schedule, I have plenty of time to provide dedicated care for your pet. I work only 6-hour shifts and have four days off each week, allowing me to offer reliable and attentive care. Feel free to reach out, and we can discuss services and pricing based on your needs! I provide care for pets in the comfort of their own home, ensuring they feel safe and secure in their familiar environment. I follow any specific instructions from the owner, maintain their routine, and give them lots of attention, playtime, and companionship. Whether it’s feeding, walking, or just offering cuddles, I make sure your pet feels loved and well cared for while you're away.
“James looked after our two dogs, and cat in our home for two days and one night. He was able to accommodate us with short notice which was very much appreciated. He was excellent with the pets, and was very respectful of our home. We look forward to working with him again in the future!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Ucluelet
Brenda and Aksel were absolutely amazing! From first contact to organize and plan a surprise getaway, get to know you/puppy call, updates throughout the day, and debrief when we got back. Clearly comfortable and caring with dogs (and puppies!), we were so comfortable and confident in our first Rover sitters ever. Thank you again for all of your care and love for our pup. We came home to a very happy puppy who was obviously well cared for and had all of her needs met (and more).

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Ucluelet 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 Ucluelet 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 Ucluelet 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. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
