“Isabella is the best! She is very responsible and personable, and took great care of my cat Gooseberry! I appreciated the pictures she provided over the weekend. Goose also liked her a lot! :)”

“Eva was amazing. I wish I could leave more than 5 stars. She took such great care of my cat and also went above and beyond to take care of my home while I was gone. That was such a treat to come home to after an exhausting trip. She listened well to all my instructions and took great care to make sure everything was taken care of. Will definitely be using her services again.”


“Erik is fantastic, he took the best care of our home and boy, and we could not be more pleased with his service. Everything in our home was gleaming, and our boy was calm and satisfied when we arrived home which told us so much. Thank you Erik for everything. We cannot recommend you highly enough to the entire Rover community. Truly deserving of every single star in this 5 star review.”

“Leah was an absolute lifesaver during a very difficult time for our family. She went above and beyond from the very beginning, making time to meet us, our dogs, chickens and ducks beforehand and accommodating a last-minute booking with less than 24 hours’ notice. Communication was outstanding throughout the entire experience. Her pre-booking contact was thorough and reassuring, and she kept us updated while we were away, giving us complete peace of mind. Most importantly, Leah genuinely prioritized our dogs’ needs. They are loving but reactive dogs and can be demanding to care for, yet she handled them with patience, understanding, and confidence. She took them on adventures, ensured they were well cared for, and treated them as if they were her own. We could not be happier with the experience. While Leah may be at the higher end of the price range, she is worth every penny for the level of care, professionalism, and peace of mind she provides. We are incredibly grateful for everything she did and would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional pet and house care. Especially more demanding or special need scenarios. Thank you Leah!!!”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover based in Kelowna with a true passion for caring for pets. I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life and understand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your furry family members. I currently have a black lab of my own who I raised from a puppy. He absolutely loves food, long walks, and being part of every adventure—so I know firsthand the energy, attention, and love pets need each day. Whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, cuddles, or dependable care while you’re away, I’m committed to treating them like one of my own. My goal is to provide safe, loving, and attentive care so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in great hands. I have a flexible schedule, leaving lots of time to get to know you and your pet. Whether it is a short drop in visit, a long adventure or an overnight stay, I look forward to meeting you and serving all of your pet’s needs. I understand how important it is for your pet to feel comfortable in their own space. I will work hard to earn your trust develop a positive relationship with you and your pet.
About: What sets me apart is my experience caring for pets of all ages—from playful puppies and curious kittens to senior dogs and cats—as well as farm animals. I’m very active, so I love having a furry companion join me on walks or playtime, but I also make sure pets are happy and well-cared-for when at home. As a self-employed house sitter, I’m only away for short periods during the day (around four hours), and I make it a priority to provide attention, routine, and care tailored to each pet’s needs. I am someone who lives a very flexible lifestyle being self-employed in the cleaning industry, so I can accommodate a pet schedule into my schedule as needed. The safety of the pet is my number one priority so if the pet needs to be crated or litter needs to be done that’s totally doable.
About: HI there, I am a huge animal lover who lives alone in downtown Kelowna and just haven’t figured out a way to have my own pet yet so here I am, loving to take care of yours. I do photography as a hobby so as a bonus you'd get some great free shots of your pets. I could also stay at your home :-) Your home would get the best of care and your pets would get lots of cuddles & walks. I work fulltime in West Kelowna, one day per week remotely from home. I'm home most weekends and am available to walk, cuddle and entertain your pet. I have lots of free time on weekends plus a car so I'd be able to take your dog on hikes or walks and entertain, feed & cuddle them all weekend long :-) I work remotely one day per week so would only be able to have them only one day during the week.
About: I completed professional training in dog handling and have owned and cared for two dogs, one during my childhood and one currently. I also have experience walking and managing different dogs. My passion for dogs and commitment to their well-being make me an excellent choice for pet care. With my child at daycare from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on weekdays, I have a flexible window to dedicate to pet care. At evenings I’m also available if you need. So I’m very flexible. I can easily fit in dog walking, feeding, and playtime visits. My routine allows me to provide attentive, consistent care, making sure pets are happy. When caring for dogs in their own homes, I follow the owner’s specific instructions to ensure their pets feel comfortable and cared for. I’m flexible and attentive to each dog’s needs, whether it’s feeding, playing, or relaxing. I also offer off-leash walks in nearby parks for extra exercise and enjoyment, providing a safe and happy experience.
“Nathan was wonderful! He spoiled my dog with lots of walks, trips to the beach, love and attention. He sent photos and videos and was in communication the whole time I was away. And my dog just loved him! I would definitely book him again. I highly recommend Nathan for your pet sitting needs :)”

“Kirstin did a great job of looking after Rusty for the weekend. She kept me updated with lots of pictures and texts. She also helped him through a day when he had a bad tummy. I highly recommend Kirstin and will definitely book her again.”

About: I’ve been dog and house sitting for over 10 years, caring for pets of all sizes, ages, and needs. From energetic puppies to senior pets requiring extra support, I’m confident handling a wide range of situations. I’ve looked after multiple dogs at once, including larger breeds for extended stays, as well as smaller dogs and cats in both short- and long-term settings. I also grew up with my own dog for 12 years and have experience caring for cats, including multi-cat households. What really sets me apart is my comfort with senior and higher-needs pets. I’ve cared for animals requiring medication, assisted feeding, and mobility support—making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved at all times. In addition to pet sitting, I’ve also been involved in animal rescue efforts. I’ve helped care for injured and abandoned animals—including dogs, cats, birds, and wildlife—by providing short-term support, feeding, and monitoring until they were safe or able to be rehomed. A meaningful experience was helping rescue and nurse a group of abandoned kittens back to health before they were successfully placed for adoption. I also come from a background of babysitting and caregiving, so being attentive, responsible, and respectful in someone else’s home is second nature to me. My schedule is extremely flexible. I work remotely and complete my master’s program online, which means I’m home most of the time and able to give your pet plenty of attention throughout the day. It’s rare that I’m away for more than a couple of hours, so your pet won’t be left alone for long periods. I’m also very active and love incorporating walks, runs, and outdoor time into my routine—perfect for dogs that need regular exercise. I prioritize creating a calm, clean, and safe environment for every pet. I’m highly attentive to routines, feeding schedules, and any specific instructions you provide—because I know consistency is key for animals. Whether your pet needs structure, extra supervision, or just a lot of love and companionship, I adapt to their needs. I’m also comfortable administering medication and monitoring for any changes in behavior or health. You can trust that your home will be respected and well cared for while you’re away—I treat every space as if it were my own. I am known for being extremely clean, tidy, and organized.
About: Hi! I’m originally from the UK and have been living in Canada for the past two years. While I’m not in a position to have a pet of my own right now, I’ve always been surrounded by animals and genuinely love caring for them. I grew up with both dogs and cats and have experience caring for animals in a variety of settings — from working at kangaroo sanctuaries to providing pet-sitting services for guests at the Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise. Through this, I’ve looked after a wide range of dog breeds, personalities, and care needs, and I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Caring for animals is something I truly enjoy, and having them around makes our apartment feel much more like home. I work remotely from home with a flexible work schedule so I can accommodate most requests. I also live with my sister so the pups get double the love and attention! We live downtown in a safe and secure first floor apartment with a small fenced yard. We have space for the pups to play and relax and often go out around the area.
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’ve been caring for animals since I was 10 years old and have experience with pets of all ages, personalities, and care needs. As a certified Veterinary Hospital Assistant, I understand the importance of attentive, compassionate care and treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m currently a student and have a very flexible schedule for the summer while I look for part-time work before returning to school full-time. This gives me plenty of availability for pet visits, walks, feeding, playtime, and providing attentive care. I enjoy spending time with animals and can easily incorporate pet care into my daily and weekly routine. I care for each pet according to their individual routine and needs. This includes feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, administering medications if needed, and providing plenty of attention and companionship. I always prioritize safety, follow the owner’s instructions carefully, and do my best to keep pets comfortable and stress-free while their family is away.

About: I have looked after family and friends dogs. One particular friend has a dog who is very physically impaired and very nippy with people. Many neighbours complimented me on how I was managing this dog as a few of them had to attend to him from time to time and had not had a great experience. I looked after this dog in his home for 12 days and had no problems. They have invited me back to take care of him anytime they go away. My daughter just got a new dog and she is full of energy and I love looking after her. Most dogs are attracted to me. I have been told many times that this dog never goes to strangers and they’ll come to me.. I am retired so with a few days notice I can alter my schedule to give you piece of mind and come let your dog out and take it for a walk. I am physically fit and love walking. I can take care of your dog in your backyard, house or go for a walk. I love to give them lots of cuddles and scratchings, And treats only if approved by owner. I will never give any food/treats to a dog unless I consult with the owner.
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.
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.

Janine is fantastic! She is professional, reliable, and always go above and beyond when caring for our pets and home. We have complete peace of mind while we're away. As an added bonus, we always come home to a sparkling clean house. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional pet sitter!

Eva was amazing. I wish I could leave more than 5 stars. She took such great care of my cat and also went above and beyond to take care of my home while I was gone.

Will definitely be using her services again.

Melissa was great; she sent me updates and pictures of my precious Bella while I was away. Bella is always a little shy at first but it didn't take her long to warm up to Melissa and they had a great time while I was away on business. I would not hesitate to to reccommend or have Melissa sit for Bella again!

We had a fantastic experience with Debora! She was absolutely wonderful with our dog Luna, taking her on regular walks and giving her lots of love and attention. Luna also got to play with her sweet dog Lucy, which was a great bonus! We especially appreciated all the amazing photos she sent us while we were away. It was so comforting to see Luna happy, relaxed, and having fun. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and responsible sitter!
