“Michaela is an amazing pet sitter. We had her drop in on our cat twice a day while we were away. She was always on time, stayed later than she needed to and sent a thorough update with lots of pictures. You can tell she has a genuine love for animals and is happy to go the extra mile. We will definitely be booking her again!”
“Isabella showed up on time to spend time with my pup and took great care of him while she was there. She was communicative through out the process. I loves the pictures she provided of her visit.”
About: I have always had pets until this last year (cats and dogs). I now walk my daughters' dogs for them daily early morning, and I really enjoy having that daily connection with my furry friends! Being semi-retired I am available for consistent and reliable care. I am working from home in the mornings, and then always take my walks in the afternoons, so that is the best time for me to come to your home to walk or visit your pet. I am available for visits in West Kelowna. I can visit in your home and/or yard and also take your pet for a walk in your area.
“Nicole was awesome! She was super responsive and easy to communicated with. My cat has advanced kidney disease and it was a huge relief to have someone so knowledgeable check in on him. High recommend.”
About: I am new to Rover but not to pet care! My goal is to provide exceptional care and security to the homes and pets in my area. If you are looking for a house-sitter/walker with class, high energy, honesty, and maximum responsibility, please consider me for the position! Building trust with both homeowners and their pets is my focus because I understand the uncertainties of leaving your companions and property in the hands of a stranger. It is my goal to maximize my care services and experience with every job and learn new ways to provide even better service. Your feedback is always welcome. I aim to leave your home cleaner than I found it. Here’s a bit about me: I am a business owner and work as a professional artist, author, and graphic designer. I lead an active lifestyle and especially enjoy caring for high-energy dogs. Being an avid hiker and runner, if your dog has a favorite trail or routine, I’d be happy to maintain it. I also have a reliable vehicle suitable for transporting dogs if you so wish, but I also respect if the owner doesn’t want their dog going too far from home. Just let me know whatever you are comfortable with! My background with animals is extensive. I grew up on a farm and worked on ranches in the Cariboo and Fraser Valley Regions. I have a huge passion for animals and have trained large dogs and horses. I previously worked as a dog and cat groomer. These experiences gave me a strong understanding of animal behavior across many breeds and personalities. I’ve been told before that I am an animal whisperer, and I believe that is because I pay close attention to their behavior and individual needs. Whether your pet is energetic, elderly, anxious, or highly trained, I approach each animal with careful understanding. I do watercolor pet portraits (as shown in the photos) and am happy to take on a commission of your pet if you’d like one! Please Note: After due consideration, I have decided I cannot accept housesits with indoor cameras anymore. It is difficult having no privacy or very little, whether it’s for personal/business calls I’m making or just day to day living. I’m sorry if this doesn’t work for you. Also note that if you have told me there are no cameras in the home, and I discover a hidden camera while I am housesitting, I will immediately end the housesit for breach of trust. Thank you for understanding. Friday evening to Saturday evening I am off work and don’t respond to Rover requests, but I will get back to you as soon as possible. Thank you for considering my services! Schedule: Because I am self-employed, I am the perfect sitter for your pet. They will have company all day and get out for their exercise consistently! What Do I Need From You the Pet Owner? It’s important for me to know the rules of your home so that you can feel secure knowing your pet will be cared for in the way they are used to! My favourite home owners are the ones who give me a list of the do's and don’ts so I can provide the best care for their pets and home. I don’t expect a stocked fridge, but it is a nice bonus when homeowners care too! I’m always being asked what I like to have, so here’s my favourites: Juice, eggs, yogurt, nuts, and cheese. I have low blood pressure, so you can’t go wrong with salty things! Although I absolutely adore animals, I do have a restriction when it comes to animals sleeping with me on the bed. I understand that is what many owners do with their pets, and I’m sorry that I can’t accommodate this. If your pet eats pork, please know that for religious reasons I am not able to handle any pork products. Thank you so much for your understanding.
“We would 100% ask Elisabeth to watch our two cats again. Both girls took to her quickly (which never happens!), and Elisabeth sent photos and updates during our trip. She made the process easy, is a strong communicator, and put us at ease. Highly recommend! :)”
“Toni is very responsive and was able to help me with very short notice. She took my dog on great walks and made it very comfortable and convenient. Thank you for your support and 10/10 recommend!”
“Viktoriia is an awesome dog walker. She responds quickly to our requests. She is friendly, committed, timely and most importantly our dog really looks forward to her arrival and walks. Thanks Viktoriia.”
About: My senior chihuahua is not much of a walker anymore so looking to meet other dogs that like to go for longer walks or shorter if they want :) I am a travelling pet sitter and live out of my van with my senior chihuahua so am very flexible for sits or walks . My Chico is most comfortable in the van cause he knows it’s our home I’m really easy to get along with and flexible to clients needs for their pets , communication is always key to keep pets happy and safe .
About: I have always had a cat in my life and I have also volunteered over 200 hours caring for cats at the SPCA. I experienced a wide variety of cats, including many shy and anxious ones. While I have the most experience with cats, I would love to take your well-behaved dog for a walk or run. I am currently a student taking online courses, so I have complete flexibility for drop-in visits and walks throughout the week. I plan my schoolwork around visits so I can meet your pet’s needs and stay consistent with their routine. I’m a calm and patient person, and I always let your cat or dog approach me on their own terms. I never force interaction—I give them the space they need to feel safe and comfortable around me.
“Hope was excellent with my puppy. She is 20 weeks old and is teething. She is quite mouthy right now and Hope was calm and patient with her. I will be asking Hope to return on those days when I have to be out of the house for extended periods.”
About: I have a deep love for animals and years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, from playful puppies to senior companions. What sets me apart is my ability to understand each pet’s unique personality and needs—whether it’s providing gentle care for older animals, reinforcing training with consistency and patience, or ensuring high-energy pets get the exercise and stimulation they need. I’m also highly responsible and detail-oriented, making sure feeding schedules, medications, and routines are followed exactly as needed. Beyond basic care, I genuinely enjoy bonding with animals, offering plenty of attention, affection, and playtime to keep them happy and comfortable while their owners are away. I know how important peace of mind is when leaving a pet in someone else’s care, so I provide regular updates and photos to keep owners reassured. Whether it’s a quiet cuddle session, a structured walk, or keeping up with training cues, I tailor my care to what each pet needs most. Pet care seamlessly fits into my daily routine as I prioritize reliability and consistency. Whether it’s drop-in visits, walks, or overnight care, I ensure pets get the attention, exercise, and affection they need. My flexible schedule allows me to accommodate various needs, from morning feedings to evening cuddles. I prioritize creating a safe, stress-free environment for every pet. I carefully follow all care instructions, maintain clean and pet-friendly spaces, and ensure routines are consistent to provide comfort and stability. Trust is key—I communicate regularly with owners, respect their home, and always prioritize a pet’s well-being and security.
“Kristi took such great care of our cat (including giving her medications and checking for signs of illness ) while we were away ! We didn’t have reception and felt so reassured she was on the job. Our cat didn’t event give us the usual cold shoulder when we got home.”
About: My name is Michelle, I love all animals and have cared for the majority of my life. I used to walk and board dogs professionally in college. When boarding dogs I would open my schedule 100% to the animals and make no additional plans to ensure your pets are my first priority. I am very active and will make sure every animal has the right amount of exercise and more during their stay. I am a big walker so I am looking for some dogs to join me who love it just as much as I do! I work 4x a week for a couple of hours a day and am home majority of the time otherwise, when I have animas staying with me I schedule my days so I can be with them 100% I love to go for long walks and get exercise! I can’t wait to meet your animal and love it like it’s my own. The more energetic the better!
“Cassidy took excellent care of my two cats, and sent plenty of photos at each visit. It gave me great peace of mind knowing they were so well taken care of while I was away. Highly recommend Cassidy!”
About: For as long as I can remember I’ve taken care of animals. Everything from Goldfish to Great Danes, bunnies to bearded dragons. I love caring for animals. I’m always the first call for friends and family when they need a pet sitter or top notch dog walker. I have experience with walking larger breeds of dogs who need a bit more patience while learning in both puppy and adult stages of life. I have plenty of experience with smaller breeds aswell. Weather you need someone to give your pet the same love and care while your away or burn some energy while your at work, Im your gal! I currently have a 1.5 year Australian Shepard and 9 year old calico cat, additionally take care of a 2.5 year old Border Collie multiple times a week. I own my own photography company and teach dance one evening a week, this allows me lots of extra time to fill with taking care of your pets needs! I am more than will to come to your house to allow your dog the most comfortable if suitable. Additionally if your dog likes some company, my dog Sydney has already picked the perfect toy to share with your pup! Living in the okanagan my whole life has allowed me to find great places to take your pet to run and play without fear of them getting loose or running into unwanted friends along the way. I put the same amount of care, if not more, in to your animals than I do my own! Friends and family describe me as calm in nature, patient and kind.
About: Animals have always been a part of my life. I started caring for pets when I was 12, and what began as helping neighbors quickly grew into over 20 years of experience with cats, dogs, and even horses. From playful puppies to senior pets, I’ve seen it all and I know how to meet each animal where they’re at. I believe pets deserve more than just “care” — they deserve comfort, companionship, and someone who truly understands them. Whether that means long walks, gentle grooming, or just extra snuggles, I make sure every pet feels loved and safe while their people are away. You can relax knowing your pets will be treated like family, because to me, that’s exactly what they are. 🐾 Caring for others has always been at the heart of my life. I work casually as a care aid in healthcare, and caring for animals has been a constant alongside that for over 20 years. From cats and dogs to horses, I’ve loved being the person people can rely on when they need someone trustworthy and compassionate. Because my schedule is flexible, I’m able to give pets the time and attention they deserve. Whether it’s keeping up with a playful pup, providing comfort to a senior cat, or just making sure your pets feel safe and loved, I treat every animal as if they were my own. When I care for pets in someone else’s home, I understand I’m being trusted with two of your most important things — your animals and your space. I take that responsibility seriously by keeping routines consistent, paying attention to details, and making sure pets and homes stay safe, secure, and well cared for at all times.
“Angie was prompt and polite during the meet and greet. Her communication was great. The pictures she sent of my cats made me feel a sense of relief that they were being well looked after. She even helped me out with a non-pet related request while at my home. I would book with her again.”

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

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.
