About: Hi! I have over 10 years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. I grew up with a Dalmatian and have had several cats of my own over the years, so I’m very comfortable with both cats and dogs. I work from home part-time and generally have availability for lunch time drop-in visits or walks. During weekdays I am typically available after 4pm and am occasionally available on weekends. I am currently not offering pet sitting in my own home, but I do provide walks and drop-in visits to give your pets the attention and care they deserve.

“Kyla looked after our cat Truffles while we were away. It was so great knowing she was in good hands. Kyla came by each day and fed her and cleaned her litter box and gave her fresh water. When we returned home after holidays, Truffles was happy to see us but seemed calm and not anxious we had left. Thanks Kyla! We definitely would use your services again”

About: I grew up with 8 German Shepherds, 3 cats, and 1 Poodle! I’ve been around dogs my entire life. I’m calm, patient, and great with shy or anxious dogs. I’m able to read dog body language and respect their boundaries. I believe in safety first mindset on walks and in the home, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs, not just watching them. I’m currently working part-time and my job is close to home, so I can walk over during my breaks for check-ins. I attend school full time, with half of my classes online, which means I’m home for majority of the day and able to give pets regular attention and care! I follow a clear schedule for walks, meals, and play-time. On-time care everyday. I care for pets by maintaining their usual routine as closely as possible, whether in my home or a clients home. I make sure they are fed on schedule, get regular walks, and have plenty of attention, playtime, and rest. I pay close attention to their behavior, comfort, and safety, and I always respect house rules and special instructions. I also provide regular updates with photos so pet parents feel at ease while they’re away.

About: Hi, I’m Emily! I’m an avid adventurer and lifelong dog lover who believes every pup deserves daily exercise, enrichment, and plenty of love. I work remotely, which gives me the flexibility to take dogs on mid-day walks and hikes while also being fully present with them throughout the day. My lifestyle allows me to travel and meet new families and pets, giving me the opportunity to provide reliable, attentive, and loving care wherever I go. I grew up surrounded by dogs, cats, fish, and rabbits, so I understand the unique needs and responsibilities that come with caring for animals of all kinds. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or structured walks, I’ll treat your dog like one of my own. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I work remotely Monday–Friday, allowing me to be flexible with daily walks and pet care. For boarding, I’m home throughout the day, so your pet will never be left alone. I always ensure your pet gets plenty of exercise and regular potty breaks. I also follow your rules and routines, as I understand how important consistency is for proper training.

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 :)”

“Was a last minute booking and Olivia was more than accommodating, easy to work with and followed details closely, wonderful girl and really sweet with my pup. Ended up getting a cancelled flight and she was able to step in for an extra day at the end making things much less stressful and I came home to a happy healthy puppy 🐕. Thank you again, and I will keep you in mind in the future when you are available.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in West Kelowna is $23 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $36 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

There are 442 sitters on Rover for Dog Sitting in West Kelowna. About 87% 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 to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.

Before the first visit, give your sitter clear written instructions covering your pet’s feeding routine, medication, litter or toilet care, preferred activities, behaviour, and anything that may make them anxious. This is a good idea, even if you’ve had a Meet & Greet.

Your instructions should explain where supplies, such as food, treats, medication, leashes, litter and cleaning supplies are kept. Include your vet’s details and an emergency contact, and let your sitter know what signs could indicate that something is wrong.

For some visits, you may want to confirm how the sitter will access your home and identify any rooms or areas that are off-limits. Update these instructions whenever your pet’s routine or needs change.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

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 .

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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

sitters on Rover , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our .
