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: I have been caring for pets and house sitting for friends and family for over 5 years, and I’m now expanding into professional pet care. I’m known for being reliable, calm, and attentive to each animal’s routine and personality. I’m comfortable with dogs of all ages, including energetic puppies who need structure and training reinforcement, as well as senior pets who require patience, medication support, and a gentle approach. I treat every home and pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, settled, and well cared for while their owners are away. Basically, I follow instructions well, give lots of belly rubs, and I take my job very seriously… but I will also absolutely talk to your dog like they’re my best friend. Ps. I also offer flexible scheduling and am last-minute booking friendly when available Pet care fits well into my routine alongside my full-time role in hospitality at a winery, where I work Tuesday to Saturday. I’m typically available for morning care before work, evenings after my shift, and I have full availability on Sundays and Mondays. I’m also comfortable with early check-ins, late drop-ins, and overnight stays depending on the needs of the pet and the booking. I’m very organized and used to balancing a busy schedule, so I make sure pet care commitments are planned in advance and always given my full attention when I’m with your pets. I am happy to accommodate last-minute bookings when my schedule allows. I offer flexible care depending on what works best for each pet and client—whether that’s in my home or yours. My priority is always keeping pets comfortable, safe, and as close to their normal routine as possible. In my home, I live in a spacious walk-up studio with a large fenced backyard, which gives dogs plenty of room to get outside, play, and relax safely. I keep the environment clean, calm, and pet-friendly, and I make sure any visiting pets feel like they have their own little space here. In clients’ homes, I’m very respectful and mindful of routines, instructions, and household rules. I stick closely to feeding schedules, walk routines, medication needs, and any specific training or behaviour guidelines. I also keep communication open with regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing.

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.

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!

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.

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 experience with pets of all ages, from energetic puppies/kittens to senior pets who need extra patience and gentle care. I go beyond the basics , adding playtime, enrichment, and affection so pets feel loved while their owners are away. Pet care is a consistent and rewarding part of my daily and weekly routine. Each day, I make sure pets are fed on schedule, given fresh water, and enjoy time for exercise or play. I incorporate walks, and enrichment activities like training or interactive toys throughout the week to keep pets happy and healthy. I also monitor their behavior and well-being, noting any changes in appetite, energy, or mood. Regular communication with pet owners is a priority, so I provide updates and photos to ensure peace of mind. I prioritize a safe, comfortable, and nurturing environment for every pet. In my home, I ensure clean, and free of hazards, with designated areas for rest, play, and meals. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routines and house rules closely, respecting their space while keeping pets happy and secure. I always supervise pets, provide plenty of attention and exercise, and maintain open communication with owners. My goal is to create a trustworthy environment where pets feel loved, safe, and relaxed whether at my home or theirs.

We booked Tyra to pop in once a day to check on our cats. She was reliable, stopping in each day around the same time. She also sent us pictures of her time with our one cat who loves attention, which assured us her attendance and gave us the opportunity to see our sweet fur babies who we were missing. Also, Tyra was sweet and personable when we met her. We hope to book her again :)

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and they truly hold a special place in my heart. For 12 wonderful years, I cared for my mini Pomeranian, Jersey, who has since passed. Through caring for her, I learned the importance of patience, attentiveness, and understanding each dog’s individual needs. Now, my husband and I have Molly, our one year old mini Dachshund. She’s energetic, playful, and full of spunk, which has reinforced the importance of consistency, patience, and positive engagement. As a dog owner myself, I understand how hard it can be to leave your dog in someone else’s care. I provide a calm, loving, and safe environment while making sure each dog’s routine is followed closely, whether that includes walks, playtime, structure, or plenty of cuddle time. I love all animals, but dogs have a special place in my heart. My goal is to make your dog feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while giving you complete peace of mind knowing they’re being treated like family 🐾 I have a very flexible schedule. I own and operate my own dance studio, where I teach for a few hours in the evenings few days a week. Outside of those teaching hours, I’m home and available throughout. Because of this flexibility, I’m able to give dogs plenty of attention and maintain their routines. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily life, and I’m able to prioritize each dog’s comfort, safety, and happiness while they’re in my care. Whatever your pet needs let me know and I will give them the best care! The goal is to make them feel as comfortable as possible while your away.

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 been caring for animals my entire life and have experience with both cats and dogs of all ages. I currently have two senior cats that I’ve had since I was young, which has given me extensive experience with daily care, monitoring health changes, administering medications when needed, and understanding the unique needs of older pets. Growing up, my family had two German Shepherds and a Labrador Retriever. Through the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience with feeding routines, exercise, and providing attentive companionship. I also volunteered multiple times at a dog shelter in Mexico, where I helped care for dogs by feeding them, spending time socializing and comforting them, and assisting staff with basic care tasks. I additionally helped with the intake of new puppies, including assisting during vaccination appointments. One of my most rewarding experiences was rescuing and fostering a puppy I brought back from Mexico that was at risk of being surrendered to a shelter. I cared for her, helped with her socialization and daily needs, and ultimately found her a loving forever home after she spent a month with me. I genuinely love animals and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. From hiking to just hanging out, I’d love to hang out with your fur babies! Pet care is already a part of my daily life. I work part-time and am completing my Bachelor's degree online, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide attentive care, walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship. Since I spend much of my time at home, I can easily incorporate pet care into my routine and ensure pets get the attention they need. I always follow the pet's normal routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. In both my home and a client's home, I provide fresh water, feeding, exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention. I also make sure pets have a clean, safe environment and closely monitor their behavior and well-being. I understand that every pet has different needs, and I'm happy to adapt my care to their personality, age, and routine.

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!

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!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - West Kelowna

Frequently asked questions about Rover

There are 438 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.
