“Audrey was absolutely amazing!!! She did a meet and greet at a park before booking, which I super appreciated, and then was easy to communicate with and sent lots of pictures and updates throughout her stay!!! I’m an anxious dog parent so having her look after Roxy and treat her as her own was perfect. I absolutely would book her again!!!!!”

About: I am a reliable and professional government employee looking for a rewarding and enjoyable side hustle. Rover aligns perfectly with my love of animals. I am very active and outdoorsy, walking my own dog daily and exploring local beaches, parks and trails such as Willows Beach, Island View Beach, Durrance Lake and Mount Douglas. I have a calm, easygoing personality and I tend to get along with both pets and people. I am adaptable to your pets needs whether they enjoy long walks or just companionship and care, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable and well looked after while they're in my care. I am available on weekends and can also accommodate pet care during the week. My schedule is fairly consistent, allowing me to plan ahead and provide reliable care. Whether you need regular visits, occasional help, or coverage while you're away, I'm happy to work with you to find a schedule that meets your pet's needs. I live in the upper level of a character home with access to a mostly fenced yard. My dog gets daily walks and plenty of outdoor time. When caring for pets in a client's home, I'm happy to follow their routine and provide the level of care, exercise, and attention their pet is used to receiving.
“Alanna was an amazing sitter for my dog Hunter, he is a senior dog with mobility challenges and she worked so hard to accommodate his needs. I loved the updates and pictures she send. I would definitely recommend Alanna as she was so understanding and caring.”
“Kaori took such wonderful care of my cat, Phillip, during his very first time away from home. She was incredibly kind, patient, and attentive, and she kept me updated with messages and photos every day, which gave me so much peace of mind. Phillip is usually shy in new environments, but thanks to Kaori's gentle care, he adapted so well. It was clear that she truly cared about his comfort and happiness. I couldn't have asked for a better cat sitter. I highly recommend Kaori to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and genuinely amazing with cats. Thank you so much, Kaori, for taking such great care of my precious Phillip!”
“Kelsey was a wonderful host to our little Brodie! You could tell it was a vacation for him too and that he was a content pooch in her care. She was super responsive and sent lots of photos and videos while we were gone. Super grateful for her care and will absolutely use her in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Absolutely wonderful! We left Bagel with Chinese and Cristian for almost a week, and being the first time since adopting her that we'd left, they made it a great experience. They sent tons of pictures and lots of updates on how Bagel was doing throughout. Their dog Benny turned out to be a great buddy for our Bagel, who is a bit more timid and sensitive. I think having Benny as a confident chaperone for Bagel was very beneficial. They also have separate sleeping and relaxing areas for if Bagel needed alone time. Great experience, and would recommend Chinel and Cristian to anyone!”
About: I have always loved animals, especially dogs and cats. Back in Sri Lanka, I had around 3 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, including feeding, bathing, walking, playing with them, and making sure they were safe and comfortable. After moving to Canada, I also gained 2 years of experience caring for dogs in Vancouver. I truly enjoy spending time with pets and getting to know their personalities, routines, and little habits. Now that I’m based in Victoria, I would love the opportunity to continue caring for your furry family members and give them the same love and attention I would give my own. 🐶🐱❤️ I’m someone who genuinely loves animals and enjoys having them around. I’m currently based in Victoria and am available on weekends for pet sitting and care. I understand that leaving your pet with someone new can feel stressful, so I always try to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I’m happy to follow their usual routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and other care instructions. Whether your pet wants to play, go for a walk, or simply relax beside me, I’m happy to keep them company and make sure they have a comfortable time while you’re away. 🐾 Before looking after your pet, I’d love to know about their personality, routine, feeding schedule, and anything else that will help me care for them properly. Please let me know if your dog or cat has any special needs, medications, allergies, fears, or particular behaviours that I should be aware of. I’m also happy to follow any specific instructions you have for their care. During the stay I love keeping pets happy and comfortable with plenty of attention, playtime, cuddles, and walks. 🐕🐈 Depending on your pet’s routine and energy level, we can enjoy walks, play with their favourite toys, explore the neighbourhood, or simply relax together. My main goal is for your furry baby to feel safe, loved, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. ❤️🐾
“Suzanne is a terrific dog care giver. I really can’t thank her enough for caring for Cooper. Many walks, lots of play and love. She is marvelous. I will make her my go to sitter. ❤️”
“Steph sent me daily updates, photos, and videos of my pup. My pup seemed to have settled in quickly and didn't show any signs of stress after we picked him up. Steph's house is now my pup's home away from home.”
“Can’t say enough good things about Jena. Our sweet Coco has the best home away from home when Jena takes care of her. I think Coco may even prefer Jena’s home with all the love and attention (and adventures) she gets when visiting. Highly recommend!!!!”
“The best in Houston hands down. My sweet Remy loves her so much. She kept in touch with me several times a day, sending me lots of pictures, and letting me know how Remy was that day. Remy also had a play mate which kept him occupied and I loved that cuz he has sooo much energy and really neeeded that play time. I will definitely come back for my next trip and even day care like we talked about.”
“Once again it was great to know that Flash was being so well looked after, that he had a safe space to explore, got to go on nice walks and got the snuggles he loves.”

Marlisa has been an incredible caregiver for our dog. Marlisa is very calm, which is perfect for nervous/shy dogs. She’s excellent about being sensitive to dog’s preferences, habits, and quirks. Our dog loves going to visit. Marlisa has taken care of our dog about five times now.
Callie had a wonderful stay at this ‘home away from home’. She was welcomed into the family and very well taken care of. It seems like she is missing her new friends already. Kirsten was an excellent communicator and kept us updated on Callie’s progress. Highly recommended!
Viktoriia was taking such wonderful care of Alfie! We’re truly grateful for all the love, patience, and attention you’ve given her. Knowing that you have a veterinary background gives us so much extra peace of mind. It means so much to us knowing Alfie is in such good hands while we’re away. Thank you for treating her like your own and making sure she feels safe, happy, and loved. We really appreciate everything you do for her! 🥰🐾❤️
Lilia is a wonderful sitter! She was able to socialize and adapt with my dog Ima quickly. She sends frequent updates about their adventures and Ima seemed to have had a blast staying over her home. Recommended to others 100%!! Will be sure to book with her again in the future.
We were very pleased to have Terry look after our dog .She was a great communicator and provided us with photos every day. It was very apparent that she makes a great connection with the dogs she looks after. I would not hesitate to recommend her to others who are looking for a lovely place to board your dog.
Iris is caring and capable, and has a large fenced yard and a friendly golden retriever that my dog got along very well with (apparently they played a lot!). She is home with them most of the time and takes them out for 2 walks a day. It was reassuring to know Ellie was well taken care of.

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
sitters in Victoria have an average of 17 years of experience. Each sitter has their own unique experience and skill sets for different types of pets. You can find details of each sitter’s potential certifications and abilities, such as pet first-aid or senior pet experience, listed on their profile. Look at other pet parent reviews and repeat pet parent booking rates for an idea of their pet care exp erience.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

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.
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 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 tips for your first Meet & Greet.
