“As first time users of Rover, we were pleased that Deborah and Mark immediately accepted our request to take care of Harper, our Golden Retriever, in their home for four hours while we attended a family event. Harper settled right away in their home and fenced backyard, and we felt comfortable leaving him in their care. We were pleased with photos they sent to us during his stay. We would gladly rebook with Deborah & Mark in the future and recommend them to others.”
“Hujan was so happy at Lu’s. He loved to play in her yard and with her own dog. He had the biggest smile both when we picked him up and in the photos Lu sent us. We received multiple updates throughout the day, which we very much appreciated. We will absolutely be booking with Lu again!”

About: I work in an animal hospital and have hands-on experience with pets of all ages, including senior and anxious animals. I’m comfortable giving medications, recognizing early signs of illness, and providing calm, gentle care. What sets me apart is my attention to detail and ability to understand each pet’s needs. I treat every pet like my own and always prioritize their safety and comfort 💛 I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos so you feel at ease while you’re away. Right now, I’m available on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays 🐾 If you let me know 1–2 weeks in advance, I’m happy to adjust my schedule and open up more days! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where they can feel relaxed and secure. I always follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible; including feeding schedules, walks, and any specific instructions. I make sure pets are never left unattended for long periods and always keep a close eye on their behavior and well-being. With my experience working in an animal hospital, I’m confident in recognizing any signs of stress or illness early and responding appropriately. I’m also comfortable administering medications if needed. In your home, I treat your space with the utmost respect and keep everything clean, safe, and exactly as you left it. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away 💛

“We were very happy with twinkle and her day care. She made us feel comfortable as soon as we met her and we can tell she loves dogs. She was attentive, loving and patient with Coco.

I will definitely come back as a regular and I highly recommend anyone who is considering a pup home away from home.”
“Connie thx for taking such good care of Missy. She knew where she was going once we got to your corner. She was smelling and waging, so excited. I always feel she is safe and happy there. Thx for your reliability.”
About: I have been around animals my entire life and have 16 years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I grew up with dogs, horses, bunnies, guinea pigs and hamsters, so understanding animal behavior and care has always come naturally to me. I have a ton of patience, attentiveness, and ability to build trust with animals quickly. I also personally trained my own family dogs (golden retriever and American Eskimo Spitz), which gave me experience with reinforcing good behaviours, maintaining routines, leash walking, crate training, and understanding the importance of consistency and positive reinforcement. I know every pet has their own personality, comfort level, and needs, and I genuinely take the time to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while in my care. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or shy and anxious, I adapt to what makes them happiest and most relaxed. Because I’m home throughout the day, pets in my care get lots of supervision, companionship, playtime, cuddles, and attention, not just quick check-ins. I treat every animal like they’re part of the family and care for them the same way I’d want someone to care for my own pets. I have a very flexible schedule and spend most of my time at home as a university student currently off for the summer. This allows me to provide pets with lots of attention, supervision, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and companionship throughout the day rather than leaving them alone for long periods. I’m available for daytime care and overnight boarding, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual routine to help them feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I have years of experience caring for animals, not only my own pets, but also pet sitting and caring for the pets of friends, family and clients over the years. I have looked after animals with different personalities, routines, and energy levels, so I understand how important patience, consistency, and attentiveness are when caring for someone’s pet. I live in a clean, pet-friendly townhouse with a front yard, and pets in my care are welcome to freely roam around the home and make themselves comfortable. They are absolutely allowed on the furniture because I want them to feel as relaxed, loved, and at home as possible during their stay. Because I am home most of the day, pets receive lots of supervision, companionship, playtime, cuddles, and attention throughout the day rather than being left alone for long periods. I am also a very active and routine-oriented person, so walks, potty breaks, feeding schedules, and playtime are always kept consistent and reliable. Since I already enjoy going on walks daily myself, your dog will get plenty of exercise, outdoor time, and stimulation. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, so I take the time to learn their routine, preferences, and comfort level to help them feel safe and stress-free while away from home. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or more calm and cuddly, I will make sure they receive patient, loving, and attentive care every step of the way. For daycare and overnight boarding, I ask owners to provide food, treats, leash/harness, medications (if needed), and any comfort items like toys or blankets to help their pets settle in comfortably.
About: I have always had pets growing up as a child ( Corgi, Golden Retriever, kangal) and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and working/ volunteering over the years. My availability is 8 am to 6 pm every week. For those pets who boarding in my house, most of time they will be playing with us and they go out and play for half hour every 3 hours. I live in a single house with fenced yard with my wife and my daughter, very loving family, no smoking or vaping or anything that could be harmful to health in the house. I am part time dog care attendant and my wife is a groomer with experience over 10+ years. This is the home you can trust.
“Kruti took great care of Choco. Choco felt very comfortable with her. She sent pictures of Choco from time-to-time, took him for walks, and also asked us about care instructions prior our visit. Choco has severe separation anxiety, and Kruti stayed along with Choco all the time. We will book another visit with her for sure in the future.”
About: I have experience caring for both large and small dogs, including senior dogs who need a little extra attention and medication administration. My home is pet-free, ensuring a calm and comfortable environment for your pup. I work part-time from home with a flexible schedule, allowing me to give your pets plenty of attention throughout the day. As an active person, I walk daily, so your dog will enjoy regular outdoor time. I’m available for overnight boarding, including weekends, or just dog walking—whatever fits your needs best. While I live in a townhouse without a backyard, I’m located near walking trails and can take your pet out regularly for potty breaks. They’ll have full access to our home, and I also have space for a crate if that’s part of their routine.
“Absolutely amazing! Tucker was a little anxious at first as he usually is but Tamara and her partner Jeff were able to guide Tucker to feeling more comfortable. The second day we took him there he went without hesitation. Tamara was super flexible and had amazing communication. She sent lots of photos and updates. She made sure he was well taken care of and comfortable. Tucker played lots and lots with their dog Yogi and it was a fantastic fit.”
“Iona was so fantastic with our 6 month old puppy. She managed medications, feeding schedules, swinging activity levels and kept our home clean during it all. She was also great with communication. Thanks Iona!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and regularly care for my own, she does live in the upstairs of my house, but we can keep them separated if needed. I work remotely, so i am home all day to care for the pet! My schedule is very flexible for feeding/walking schedules to ensure your pet has everything when they need it during their stay! I have a fenced yard where your pup can play and go to the bathroom. One other dog in the house but she lives upstairs where your pup will be staying downstairs.

As first time users of Rover, we were pleased that Deborah and Mark immediately accepted our request to take care of Harper, our Golden Retriever, in their home for four hours while we attended a family event.

Erika was absolutely lovely. Detail oriented, gave great updates, sent photos, lots of potty breaks and very attentive. She noticed how Sherru was feeling and helped him feel more comfortable over the stay. She was so flexible and helpful. Will definitely be booking again.
Catherine and her husband were so kind and caring to our little teddy. Teddy seemed to really enjoy dog Bella. My husband and I had a few hours to ourselves, knowing Teddy was in good care. When we picked him up,Teddy was happy and we could tell he had a good visit. I will most definitely book Catherine again I. The near future.
I can’t say enough good things about Debbie and her family. She is compassionate, caring, thoughtful, fun, and energetic. My Corgi puppy, Eleanor, can’t wait to get to the front door when we arrive at her place. Debbie takes Eleanor on walks (she has a nice tree-lined trail by her place), plays with her in the doggy pool when it’s hot, and lets us bring Eleanor’s sandbox to dig in. Her place is clean and organized. She has space to keep Eleanor separate from the cats if she won’t leave them alone, and she has gates to allow Eleanor access to a nice backyard area from the front of her place. Debbie is truly an animal lover. Eleanor gets spoiled with her homemade dog food as a topper on her kibble when she’s there and I feel that she’s in the hands of someone who really cares about her wellbeing. We are so grateful to have found Debbie on Rover. Thank you <3
Natalia cared for our dog twice while we were in the Langley area. She was quick to reply to our inquiry and easy to communicate with. We felt our dog was in very good hands while in her care. She provided meals, walks and play time for him and sent us regular updates about how he was doing. We would definitely use her services again if needed in the future.

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 Walnut Grove 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 BC 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:
- 80% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
