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.

About: I have had dogs and cats my whole life, loving and caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and breeds. I’d love to visit, walk, or have your dog come stay with us while you’re away! I have a 4 1/2 year old male labernese who is very friendly and energetic, he loves to play and gets along very well with other dogs. We love to hike and stay active outdoors! I have experience with senior dogs, medication administration, and care as well. I work part time out of the house(very minimal hours throughout the week ) however the majority of the day and evening I am home. I am available for boarding Monday - Sunday, morning /mid-day walks Monday-Friday and Saturday/Sunday 6:00pm-8:00pm. I have a fully fenced large yard with a safe environment for play. My home is pet friendly throughout with plenty of space to get comfortable.I live in a quiet neighbourhood with walking trails nearby.

About: I've had animals of my own my whole life and taken care of other's pets for 30+ years. I love all animals, but dogs are my favorite and they only sleep with me if they're allowed 😉. I'm just as happy cuddling with a cat though! I work from home, so I can provide around the clock care for your fur babies! I work from home and have lots of freedom and time to walk and care for your pets. I enjoy being active with the animals, also cuddling up and relaxing. I will provide care for your pets in your home exactly as you see fit. I follow directions well, am adaptable, and just want you and your animals to feel safe and cared for. I'm clean, conscientious and understand the trust and respect needed to have others in your personal space, and I honor that.

About: I have years of experience caring for animals of all shapes and sizes—from tiny Chihuahuas to giant Great Danes. I’ve raised kittens from birth, cared for reptiles, and looked after farm animals like rabbits and chickens. What truly sets me apart is my ability to understand each animal’s unique needs and make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their environment. Whether it’s a high-energy pup, a shy senior dog, or a curious kitten, I tailor my care to keep them happy and healthy. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority, and I treat every animal like they’re part of my own family. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life—I have two dogs of my own and love spending time with animals. I work five days a week, but my shifts are typically 5–6 hours, which gives me plenty of flexibility. I’m available for morning or evening visits depending on my schedule, and I can always stop by before and after work. Caring for pets isn’t just something I do—it’s part of my everyday routine, and I truly enjoy it! My top priority is making sure your pet feels happy, safe, and comfortable—whether they’re in my home or I’m visiting yours. I understand that every animal has their own unique needs and routines. Whether your dog needs a long, energetic walk or just a quick 5-minute potty break, I always follow their lead and adjust my care to what works best for them. I take the time to get to know each pet and make sure they feel at ease while you’re away.

Toni is amazing! She did drop off visits for my french bulldog for about 2 weeks. He’s a bougie little guy who gets his lunch meal prepped (due to pancreatitis) and heated up. She came by for about an hour everyday and fed him/ took him out. She also took the time to do drop by introduction before taking care of him. After the first visit he was waiting by the door looking for her the entire night when I get home. If I afford to hire her full time I would. Highly recommend trying her out if you need someone to care for your pets!

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.

We were first time Rover users and pretty anxious leaving our two cats, but Xenia completely exceeded our expectations. Lots of updates, photos, and amazing communication. We felt totally at ease the entire time and both of our cats were clearly happy and well cared for. Our one cat has some medical issues and requires special feeding and meds which she did without any issues. Highly recommend!

About: I am a university student at UBCO living at home with my family and 2 dogs. This gives me the unique flexibility to stay overnight and care for pets on short notice. I have had dogs my whole life, and currently have a senior rescue, and a puppy at home. This gives me the experience I need to care for all kinds of dogs, well trained, not yet trained, puppies, seniors, rescues, purebreds etc. I have been dog and cat sitting for family friends several times a year for over 3 years since high school. I am a very responsible person, extremely reliable, and communicate well. I love the outdoors and going for walks, as well as lazy days at home. I have a very flexible school and work schedule. I am a student at UBCO and have several 3-4 hour gaps in my day which I can come home and spend time with the pets. I am done my classes around dinner time, and can come straight home for the evening. On the weekends, I am a server at a restaurant in town and generally only work 4-6 hour shifts. This means I am around for the majority of the day. I have been dog walking for many years as I have had dogs my whole life. With clients, I try and keep the pet’s routine as similar as possible to their owner’s. I like to be around as much as possible and keep the pets as comfortable as they can be while their owner is away.

About: Hello, my name is Nicole. My dad is an RCMP dog handler, so I have had dogs around my whole life. Specifically, I have grown up and cared for our German Shepards, lab, golden retriever, and Yorkie cross. I am a full-time teacher, so I have a lot of flexibility and time to care for dogs in the summer months. I have extensive experience and am comfortable with dogs of all sizes and attitudes. I understand all dogs have unique needs: feeding schedules, exercise needs, socialization needs, potty breaks ect. For this reason, I only care for a single family at a time to ensure the best care for your pup. I love to take dogs out for walks or runs whenever they need and however long they need. Being surrounded around dogs my whole life, I understand that what an important part of the family our dogs are, and would provide the best care possible. I am very patient, responsible, and punctual. I can't wait to meet your pup! I have a very flexible schedule during the summer months because I work as a teacher. I have all day everyday to give your pup the attention they need:) I live in an apartment, but live very close to a large fenced activity field. I would be more then happy to bring your dog out whenever they need. Crates are no problem as well.

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!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life and have always lived with them! I grew up with a wannabe escape artist beagle, and feel confident I can handle the most stubborn of dogs now! I know how scary it can be to leave your pup, and I ensure I will love and care for your dog as if it were my own! In October 2024 we adopted a sweet girl from Mexico named Azul. She is my whole life! She would love to make some new doggy friends! I am here to make you feel comfortable with leaving your best friend in the hands of someone else. Whatever your pups needs are, I am happy to handle them with the best of care! Whether that be specific times/places for potty breaks and walks, administering medication, or anything else required! I will always be home with your pup and won’t leave them alone. My puppy had separation anxiety so I know how important it can be to some pups that I am always there! I currently don’t have a fenced yard but I have plenty of grassy space around my appartment to take your pups for their potty breaks and/or walks. My pup loves the dogs park, hikes, and walking in quiet areas, and I am happy to take yours wherever they are most comfortable for their adventures!

Tiernan took very good care of our 19 1/2 yr old cat Marley. It wasn’t an easy job that just involved filling up a cat dish and scooping the litter box. She was mixing wet food, setting up cat watching bird videos and making a warm comfy beds with a hot water bottle. At a very Sr age, Marley needs a lot of encouragement to eat, love and attention and Tiernan did a fantastic job! She also had to come early morning and later in the evening and she was here faithfully. She went above and beyond to make sure our fur baby was full, happy and content. We received thorough updates on how he was doing and pictures with every visit she made. We couldn’t be happier with the job she did for us. Plus she is a complete sweetheart! We will most definitely ask Tiernan to come back. Thanks so much Tiernan!

This star sitter took on my very last minute request during the holiday as a brand new client. This gave me the ultimate peace of mind while I traveled to see family and I felt complete trust knowing my dog was well taken care of with updates and photos. I could see his relaxed and happy expressions in all the pictures I received. Coming home to a happy dog created an excellent experience. I strongly recommend Olga as your next pet sitter!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in West Kelowna on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

There are 419 sitters on Rover for Dog Sitting in West Kelowna. About 85% of West Kelowna sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.

Rover makes it easy to find sitters who are available during your working hours. To find sitters who fit your schedule, select which days of the week and the time slots you'd like a sitter to visit. The search results will populate sitters whose calendars match your needs. You can also search for sitters by location, whether that’s a sitter near your office for day care drop-off or a sitter close to your home. Once you've found a sitter who you like, message them directly to schedule a Meet & Greet.

Tip: Doggy day care is another option for pet supervision while you're at work. Visit our doggy day care page for more information.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or travelling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer poop breaks during a West Kelowna stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover based on what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in West Kelowna choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

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.

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.

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.
