House Sitting Walnut Grove

“I came home to happy dogs and a clean house. She does a better job of cleaning the kitchen sink than I do! I am very happy with Darlee and I don't hesitate to recommend her. I am sure that Talia and Onyx agree with that recommendation!”

“Viv was awesome! She did so much with our puppy Koka and Koka loved it. They played and went for a great walk. She made sure to give us updates about Koka during the walk. You can tell how much she loves dogs and how much they love her back.”

“Cara did a fantastic job taking care of our two babies (cats). Both animals required brief visits to the vet and Cara managed these adventures smoothly. She also assisted us with other issues while we were away. Our home looked much better on return than it did on departure. We were concerned our cats would pack their little bags and move to Cara's home on our return. Cara is a wonderful find and we have absolute confidence in her.”

“Emerson house sat for us and was fantastic from start to finish! She communicates well and is very accommodating. Our dog Toby was so comfortable and relaxed with her. We came home to a clean house and a happy pup! We will definitely reach out to rebook for future trips. Thanks Emerson!”

“We appreciated that Zara took the time to meet Gus and get to know his routines and personality at home before staying with him! You could tell right away that Zara was patient and kind. Gus and Zara became fast friends! Zara took great care of Gus and our home while we were away. We loved receiving pics of Gus playing and enjoying his time with Zara during our trip.”

About: Over the course of six rewarding months, I've had the privilege of serving as a trusted pet sitter for a dear friend's cherished canine companion. My daily routine has revolved around providing exceptional care, ensuring the dog's well-being and happiness. This includes two daily outings filled with adventure and exercise, fostering a healthy and active lifestyle. Beyond the walks, I've cultivated an environment of love, play, and unwavering companionship. Witnessing the sheer joy and fulfillment that dogs bring into our lives has been a truly heartwarming experience. As I embark on this journey as a dog walker and sitter, my commitment to delivering the same level of dedicated care to other canine companions is unwavering. As a dedicated student, I have structured my pet care responsibilities into my daily and weekly routine to ensure a balanced and nurturing environment for my furry friend. Each morning and evening, I allocate specific time slots for walks, playtime, and feeding, allowing me to meet my academic commitments while still providing attentive care. On weekends, I have more flexibility to engage in longer activities and outings, reinforcing the bond with my pet. My commitment to pet care aligns seamlessly with my student life, as it brings structure, joy, and companionship to my daily routine, enriching both my academic pursuits and personal life. Certainly, the way I care for pets will vary depending on whether I'm providing services in my own home or the client's home. In my home: - I create a safe and pet-friendly environment. - Establish a consistent daily routine for feeding, exercise, and playtime. - Prioritize regular walks and outdoor activities. - Provide affection and one-on-one attention. - Administer any required medications or follow specific health routines. - Maintain open communication with pet owners and provide updates on their pets' well-being. In the client's home: - Conduct a meet and greet to understand the pets' routines and preferences. - Strictly follow the owner's instructions for feeding, medication, and care. - Maintain a consistent routine to minimize stress for the pets. - Provide regular updates and photos to the pet owners. - Ensure the security and safety of the client's home. - Be prepared for emergencies, with a plan for veterinary care if needed. This way, I tailor my pet care services to the specific needs and preferences of the pets and their owners, whether in my own home or the client's home.

“Very pleased with Riley! Great with Marley who is a senior 14 years old. Marley has never spent a day away from me . She doesn’t get along with many strangers! She really liked Riley as did I. She was excellent with Marley and I felt relieved that Riley was here at my house with her!! Riley was great at giving Her medication which is something I can hardly do! Thanks Riley”

“We had such a great experience with Jasleen 😊 She watched our dogs 6 times this past week and took wonderful care of them. Our dogs absolutely loved her and were so happy and comfortable with her. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. She was caring, reliable, and attentive. We really appreciate everything she did for our fur babies. We will definitely be booking with Jasleen again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter! 😊😊”

“It was so great to be away and know the animals were taken care of. I appreciate the pictures of the dogs that were sent while we were away. Thank you Tatiana!”

“Iona looked after our pets and home for 2 weeks. She was great; our pets were healthy and happy, our house was spotless, and she communicated regularly. It was good to be on vacation and not have to worry about what was going on back home.”

Arne S.

“Sophie was amazing. I was not worried while we were away at all. We had limited access to wifi so very limited contact. So thankful she was so dependable.”

About: I’m a calm, reliable, and attentive sitter who genuinely enjoys caring for both pets and the homes they live in. I create a steady, peaceful environment so animals feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m experienced with pets of all sizes and temperaments, including those who may need a little extra patience, routine, or gentle handling. I take pride in keeping a home clean, organized, and running smoothly, and I’m happy to help with light housekeeping or plant care as needed. You can expect thoughtful updates and clear communication, so you always know your pets and home are in good hands. What sets me apart is my reliability, maturity, and the calm, respectful care I bring into every home. Being retired but still active gives me a flexible schedule that naturally includes pet care. I provide consistent attention, walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. Whether in my home or yours, I maintain a calm, clean, and safe environment where pets are supervised and cared for according to their established routines. I follow instructions closely and prioritize comfort, consistency, and trust at all times.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over 10 years, including regularly looking after my brother’s pets and raising my own Labrador since he was a puppy. I’m experienced with daily walks, feeding routines, bathing, and keeping pets comfortable with regular potty breaks and attention. I also completed a Dog Walker Certificate through Good Dog Academy. I treat every pet like family and focus on safe, reliable, and loving care while you’re away. Since I’m retired, I have a very flexible schedule and can easily adapt my day around a pet’s routine. I’m available for morning, midday, and evening walks, feeding times, potty breaks, and companionship throughout the day. I prioritize consistency, safety, and giving each pet calm, attentive care that fits their normal habits and energy level. I provide attentive, personalized care based on each pet’s normal routine and comfort level. In my home, my dog receive a safe, clean environment with regular walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of supervision and affection. In a client’s home, I follow all care instructions closely to maintain the pet’s usual schedule, keep their space tidy, and ensure they feel secure while you’re away. My focus is always on safety, consistency, and treating every pet like family.

“Ress was absolutely amazing and took wonderful care of my two large dogs and home for 3 weeks! She handled my German Shepherd’s leash reactivity and separation anxiety very well and was able to adapt to help him adjust to the changes. She had great communication with us and kept us well informed and sent update pictures throughout the sit! I highly recommend and book again!”

About: Pets like cats, rabbits, and other animals are welcome. I volunteered with Pads for six months and fostered shelter animals to help more pets find homes. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, fish, and more. I respect pets' emotions and thoughts. Since childhood, I've enjoyed playing with my family's dog and cat and caring for them. Each pet has a unique personality. I love caring for pets and will give them all the love and attention they deserve. My goal is to keep your pet safe, happy, and comfortable. Pets can sense the energy around them, so it’s important for a caregiver to be positive. I love seeing pets happy and healthy, which makes this job fulfilling. 😊❤️ If you're booking for the first time, ask me for the promotion code. I’m free usually every day, 7 days a week😊. I have free time to give your dog company and exercise. I like to jog with the dog. Enjoy delicious food, fun playtime, exercise, soothing massages, cozy cuddles, and of course, important potty breaks and restful nap times! I hope your pet is happy and safe here!

About: Over 10 years of taking care of pets has taught me one big thing: no two animals are the same. A high energy dog needs an active walk, a senior pup just wants to sniff a tree and hit the couch, and a shy cat needs quiet patience before coming out for chin scratches. I tailor every visit.. whether it's an energetic walk, litter box duty, or slow paced play to what your pet actually needs to feel happy and safe. ✨My primary focus is house sitting, ensuring your pets get dedicated, round the clock comfort in their own home. I am also happy to take on drop ins and walks upon request outside of house sitting bookings!✨ Why owners trust me with their pets: •Attentive & Safety Minded: I'm hyper aware on walks.. watching traffic, reading dog body language, and keeping a close eye out for environmental triggers or hazards. For indoor cats, I make sure double doors, windows, and quick escape routes are always secure before opening a thing. •Specialized Care: administering oral medications, handling reactive dogs, and adjusting my tempo for senior pets, energetic puppies, or timid kitties who need space to warm up. •Consistent Photo Updates: You'll always get photos and a clear update on how the visit went, so you never have to worry while you're away. •Proven Experience: I run a pet care business outside of rover 🫶🏻 and used Rover back in 2024–2025. After taking a short step back, I’m fully back and bringing that same reliable, professional care to every visit. I work part-time 3 days a week (8 hour shifts), which leaves the rest of my week wide open for pet care. When house sitting, I treat it just like living there! following your pet’s exact daily routine, hanging out at your place, and making sure they have consistent company so they barely notice you're gone. I’m always super mindful of safety. On walks, I keep dogs on a firm leash and stay aware of our surroundings. Inside the house, I double check that doors, windows, and gates are fully secured before leaving or turning in for the night. I know how important peace of mind is, so I'll always leave your home tidy and send frequent updates so you never have to worry.

About: Hey 👋 I’m Angie, it’s nice to meet you! Glad you’ve found my rover here and I’m looking forward to connecting with you. I’m a dog owner myself, so I care deeply about what type of treatment my pup is getting when I hire a Rover. I look to give you the same reassurance I’ve found here - a Reliable sitter on a day you really need it, your furry friend taken care of by someone who genuinely loves dogs and is respectful of my home. I have experience handling dogs from 6lbs up to 70lbs! I love dogs of all sizes, each their own nature and personality and I honour that each pup is unique, but truly I’ve never met a dog I didn’t like ;) I grew up across the street from a giant German Sheppard who had the kindest heart, and shared space with Great Danes that hopped into my lap like tiny kittens. For what it’s worth, I’ve met a ton of bully mixes that have been nothing but gentle with me. I’ve had two jack russels and a Pom at one point so I’m very used to high energy dogs. Currently I have a sweet sleepy 12 year old jack-chi mix, so let me know if your pup is socialized and likes other dogs, then I’m happy to bring her along but she stays home with my partner mainly. My time at your place - I’m a creative graphic designer and I work from home, so I’ll be with your dog full-time when you book with me. I provide walks every couple hours and promise to send tons of adorable pictures and updates for you to admire while you’re away. I’ve always appreciated this from sitters I’ve hired myself from Rover. It would be helpful if you let me know as much information as possible about your pup(s). What time is feeding schedule and how often do you walk your pup at home? High or low level energy? Have they had regular pee and poo lately? Is it okay to provide beef liver, peanut butter or sweet potato snacks? Those are great details I would appreciate with your booking. Talk to you soon! I’m a creative designer who freelances and works from home so I will be staying at your place where your furry friend usually is to take care of them in their natural home base I’ve only had good experiences hiring Rover for my two dogs whom I love so trust safety and respecting the space is highest priority to me. I promise to do the same and contribute to the nice Rover community I’ve gotten to experience

About: Hi there! My name is Nicole, and I'm a 38-year-old Etsy shop owner in Maple Ridge. I've had family dogs my entire life, ranging from 8-25 lbs. And my wife, Nikki, and I have been sharing full-time Dog Mom duties for over 5 years. In October 2025, we lost our good boy, Eddie, after a long decline during which I learned to comfortably administer insulin. Now, our sweet rescue girl, Moxy (age 9 or 10), has no fur friends to spend time with. While not required, I prefer to care for dogs who are comfortable with Moxy tagging along for walks and house-sits. She is a well behaved, house-trained, 9-year-old Maltese-Mini Schnauzer mix who is, as we like to say, "just happy to be there." She is good with most dogs, but becomes avoidant of dogs who get overly excited and rough. She plays very gently. I am available for dog walks, drop ins or day sits anytime after 9am on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. Mondays and Thursdays are my focused work days, so I am only available after 5pm. I am also available for pet sitting any day of the week, as long as your pets are able to be left alone for up to 4 hours per day on weekdays. For new clients, I would like to schedule an in person meet-and-greet to ensure we are a good fit for each other. If you’re interested, please send a message with details about your pets and desired services. I'm happy to answer any questions :) Thanks!! WALKING + DROP INS + DAY SITS I am available for dog walks, drop ins or day sits anytime after 9am on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. Mondays and Thursdays are my focused work days, so I am only available after 5pm. **I usually take an hour during Mon/Thurs to take our dog, Moxy, for a walk, so I have room for 1 more doggo to join us during those days. HOUSE-SITTING: I will treat your home with the utmost respect. I’m happy to water your plants and bring in the mail, and I will of course tidy up to ensure you can't even tell I was there. I can provide you with frequent updates, along with cute photos and videos so you can feel assured that your pets are well cared for. I work from home, meaning your pets will rarely be alone. They will get walks, belly rubs, potty breaks, and play time as desired. My work schedule is mostly flexible, allowing me to give your dog or cat plenty of attention and care throughout the day. My job requires about 15 hours per week of focused time spent at my home office. That work is usually done on Mondays and Thursdays, however, I can spread it out over the week to decrease the time that I'd need to be away from your pets if your trip falls on those days. You know your pet(s) best, so we can discuss the preferred way for me to accommodate them. Please let me know if you're comfortable with our well-behaved, house-trained, small dog Moxy visiting your house or joining for walks with your dog(s). She'd love the socialization. But if it's a no, that's okay. Please note, I am not comfortable caring for pets who: - cannot be left alone - fight to receive required medication - are not spayed/neutered - are aggressive - are incontinent - are fully blind - are likely to require multiple bathroom breaks overnight - are over 40 lbs (unless they are calm/not jumpy and good on a leash). At this time, I'm not able to board pets at our home, but I'm happy to come spend time with your pets in the comfort of their home.

About: Both Becky & Dylan grew up with pets. Becky had 2 large dogs, and Dylan had 2 dogs and multiple cats. We have always had a love for animals, big and small. At this stage in our lives, we do not have any pets of our own. We are the loving auntie/uncle to Becky’s sister’s two dogs, Gus and Hopps; her dad’s dog, Ollie; her uncle’s dog, Moffat, and Dylan’s sister’s cat named Ben. Not to mention, an honorary aunt/uncle to countless friends’ pets. We have had the pleasure of pet-sitting dogs and cats of all ages, including an adorable 15 year old Boston Terrier with various health issues requiring timed medication and a rescue dog that required daily physiotherapy exercises and massage for some muscle and joint pain he was experiencing. Becky works a full-time job Monday-Friday, 8:00am-4:00pm. Dylan is often able to stay with pets during the day and complete daytime walks & playtime. We enjoy spending as much time as possible with the pets we are sitting. We are quiet and respectful working professionals who are committed to providing loving care to your beloved pets in the comfort and familiarity of their own home while you are away.

“Taylor went beyond our expectations and made herself available to meet our little 9 pound poodle a few times before we left for our week holiday. At first out little guy was reserved and hesitant but he was very comfortable with Taylor by the time we left and was cuddling up beside her as soon as we walked out the door. He was happy to see us on our return but Taylor is now his new favourite friend. We would not hesitate to have her look after him again and we know he would be happy to see her.”
