“I highly recommend Ivy! She’s responsible, reliable, and a great communicator. She gave us regular updates with photos, made sure to keep to our cat’s usual routine, gave our cat lots of playtime, and even watered our garden for us. We came home to a very happy cat (and garden). We’ll definitely ask Ivy next time we need a cat sitter 😸”
“Holly did a great job caring for our two cats. They are fairly shy but warmed up to her fast! She was very good at communication and was attentive to all their needs. Thank you, Holly!”
“Miriam was great and my cats were always happy to see her during every visit. She was good about making sure the litter was always clean and food was stocked and even cleaned up some messes.”
“Anquia took great care of my cat, she kept me updated everyday and took a lot of pictures. I really appreciated her service. I highly recommend her to take care of cats!”
“Stephanie was an amazing cat sitter. We were completely at ease and knew we could relax on vacation knowing Ollie was in great hands. Stephanie was a great communicator, sending us pics every day to show that Ollie was settled in nicely. I can highly recommend Stephanie and we will be using her again for sure.”
About: I currently have a Sphynx (high maintenance cat breed with very specific needs) so I’m comfortable with tailored routines, diet restrictions, and reading an animal’s particular quirks.. I also grew up with dogs (multiple Border Collies) so I know the energy and exercise they need too. Whether your pet wants constant attention, space, or a specific routine, I adjust to what actually works for them :) I am currently working part time, so I have free time in my week and would love to drop in and take care of your animal(s). Typically I work Thursday-Saturday, but am happy to accommodate as best I can if you need support during those days. In your home, I stick closely to their feeding schedule, walks, and any specific instructions, staying attentive to their comfort in their own environment throughout each visit. *I have a cat in my home, (2 bd duplex house). I am happy to have your pet stay in my home if they’re patient/friendly towards cats and my cat gets along with them -would need to discuss/meet & greet prior to me hosting*
“Madison is awesome! We are so happy to know our Birdie (who is a cat) is in good hands when we are away from home. We look forward to Maddie's detailed daily updates and photos. Thanks, Maddie! Birdie says hi!”
“Took such great care of my cat and made me feel so comfortable being away. Filled out care cards every visit and provided plenty of photos to keep my mind at ease. Hayley is great!”
“Ava is thoughtful, kind, and competent, and she made sure to keep us updated while we were away. We were confident that our cats were in capable hands and have already re-booked her for another upcoming trip.”
About: Hello there, my name is Cass! I am a huge animal lover looking to help you take care of your animals! I have a very calming energy and do well with dogs who might struggle with anxiety or can be initially reactive when meeting new people. I have been caring for different animals for over 15 years including cats, dogs, hedgehogs, hamsters, and lizards. I am extremely reliable and easy going, with tons of references on my abilities on house and pet care. I can't wait to meet your furry family members! I currently work full time out of the house, which means I can be out of the house for up to 8 hours at a time. If your dog cannot be left for that long I may not be the best fit. I have some flexibility to drop in mid day if certain situations require it. I am a very experienced house-sitter which means I will “move in” to your home and take care of your pets as my own! Walks/feedings/medications all a priority while also staying the night for companionship. I am a very trustworthy, attentive care-giver. You will have nothing to worry about if I am taking care of your pets in your home. I have strong attention to detail and will always make sure everything is safe and protected while in my hands
About: I have had pets of all kinds my whole life from hamsters to turtles to cats and my father later in life adopted dogs for me to care for when returning home. I started taking care of dogs when I was travelling for work in the USA through Trusted Housesitters with my partner. After having a child we have had fish, enjoy taking our friends' dogs for morning walks and cat-boarding for colleagues at work. I love living in Victoria and am lucky to live in a nice neighbourhood with big parks and nice walks. Walking is my favourite exercise and walking with company is the best! I am going to use the dog walking extra money to fundraise for my daughter's trip to DisneyLand this February 2027. I want to walk dogs in the morning before work and school for exercise and enjoy the early hours. I am also raising money to go on a trip to Disney Land. Having used Trusted Housesitters, I have stayed in other people's houses to care for their pets for up to a month. I also used to run an Airbnb with my partner so we could travel and have experience cleaning and taking care of the home with pets. I keep a clean and tidy home with my daughter, mostly to keep track of everything haha 😂 I have split level apartment at the top two floors of a house with open spaces and 2 bathrooms. I have a gated front patio and a giant dog park across the street. Lots of places to walk and enjoy the great weather of Victoria.
“Christina is excellent! She watched my cat who needed eye drops 4x a day and was meticulous in her care for her. Never missed a drop and always ensured her needs were met. Will be contacting her again for house sitting and cat care!”
“Gwyneth house sat our 2 super senior cars while we were on vacation. I couldn’t be more happy with the outcome. She updated us daily with pics, she kept our house clean. The best part, I didn’t worry about the cats while I was away!!! We came home to happy cats and a clean and tidy house. We will definitely use Gwyn again for our cat sitting needs!!”
“Courtney looked after our two cats as our first 'cat-sitter' at home. I was a bit nervous using Rover for a first time, but Courtney is so mature & responsible, I already felt at ease within minutes of meeting her. She was so great with the cats, as both were a bit hesitant at first but warmed up to her after getting spoiled all weekend. She is a true animal lover and has a natural ability to connect with our cats. The cats definitely appreciated her visits and cannot wait to see her again!”
About: Hi! Thank you for checking out my profile! I am so excited to meet your wonderful furry friends. I have been caring for animals for going on 7 years. I do dog walking, dog sitting, cat sitting, house sitting and more! I have worked with a large variety of breeds, sizes and temperaments. I am confident working with senior dogs and cats, and puppies and kittens. Additionally I have worked with countless rescue dogs and know how to work with anxious dogs. Animals are more than pets to me, they are family. Your pet deserves enrichment, love and safety. I strive to bring all of this to my care. I know how stressful it can be to leave your pets at home so I want to make this process as easy as possible for you. Giving you thorough updates, communication and trusting experience. From one animal person to another, I’m so excited to connect! 😊🐾 I work from home so pet care works perfectly into my schedule. It gives me the freedom to travel anywhere and be with the pets most of the day When I care for your pet in your home I will treat it with the utmost respect. I will treat it as my own, being clean, responsible and and considerate.
About: Dogs and cats have always been special to me, and your furry family members are safe in my care. Walks, feedings, and medicine applications are all in my repertoire. Braden is a kind, relaxed fellow who will plunk his laptop down to work while caring for your pets. He's a mortgage broker who has plenty of spare time between emails, so pet sitting fits right into his lifestyle. From brief check-ins to longer stays, he'll be there for your furry family members when they need him. The safety and well being of your pet(s) is of the utmost importance. As previously stated, the general practice is to set up a laptop work station on a kitchen table or desk to be nearby your beloved, furry family member(s). Any additional safety and care instructions are welcome.
“Kristin was great, easy to communicate with, & flexible. Our cats took to her kind nature easily & we had a worry free vacation. I would definitely recommend Kristin for anyone who needs some pet care while away. Bryan”
“For context, for some of the time I was away, Victoria BC experienced a lot of snow. I let Camille know that (1) in a pinch a neighbour could check on my cat and (2) it would be fine for his schedule to be flexible given the weather. But she was determined to make sure that there were two visits a day and that I got lots of photos and messages assuring me that my cat was weathering the storm. To be clear, I don't expect anyone to fight their way through snowy streets, but I am grateful and impressed that Camille was so committed to this job. I look forward to booking her again for the next time I travel!”
About: I have always grown up with animals - dogs, cats, fish, bearded dragons.. and have house sitted and cared for friends animals (and plants!) across England, Australia, USA and Canada. I am an avid hiker and also city stroller - keen to take your dog on a big hike or little guy on a stroll along the beach. Happy to practice commands and any tricks youve been teaching your guy.

I co-parent two cats with my partner in Victoria, BC and have been missing the companionship of some dogs around me. I like going for long walks almost every day after recently completing the PCT and happy to bring your dog along for some of my longer or shorter walks. I am a routine loving person and happy to adapt to your already established routine with your pet. I can keep things comfortable and consistent, from the length of walks to feeding time. Beyond pet care im happy to bring your mail in, water your plants and keep your place clean and secure.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Victoria
Ivy was amazing at taking care of our kitty George who has alot of separation anxiety. She played with him so much and gave him the best treatment while we were away for 4 nights. We came home to a happy kitty. We highly recommend ivy and would be a privilege to have her pet sitting again.
We recently moved to the area and needed a new pet sitter for occasional travel. Danielle took care of our 2 cats and 2 dogs while we were out of town for the weekend. She is friendly, prompt, communicative, and sent nice photos during each drop-in visit. Thanks, Danielle!
Richelle always does such a great job. She did a stop in visit today for my cat and played with her and gave her lots of attention. She always follows instructions and is great at communication and sending the cutest pictures. Highly recommend, thank you! Very happy customer. Jenn and Lilly
I’m so grateful to Sophie and Cieran for taking such wonderful care of my shy cat, Doki! 🐾 Doki is quite nervous and takes time to warm up to new people, so I was a little worried about leaving him in someone else’s care. Sophie and Cieran were incredibly kind, patient, and gentle with him, giving him the time and space he needed to feel comfortable. Their calm and caring approach gave me complete peace of mind. I also really appreciated how reliable, thoughtful, and communicative they were throughout the experience. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sophie and Cieran. They were wonderful with Doki, and I felt confident knowing he was in such caring hands. Thank you both so much for looking after Doki! I’m truly grateful and would happily use your services again. Highly recommended! 🐱❤️
