“Jennifer and David were both very caring with our dog, Lucy. Lucy can be a bit anxious when meeting new people and other dogs and from the first introduction I felt they were a good fit for us. They were very sensitive and wanted to know what might be the best way to bring their dog Ruby out to meet Lucy. The introduction went great and when I later dropped Lucy off for daycare and she was feeling overwhelmed, Jennifer was quick to respond to her needs, helping her calm down with a walk. I left knowing Lucy was in good hands and the sweet pictures she sent me throughout the day showing Lucy cuddled up with her and David confirmed just that. I’ll definitely use their services again and would highly recommend them, especially if your dog struggles with anxiety or any other special need.”
“This was Boomer's first stay with Guy and Zol and he had a blast! He was well taken care of and they provided frequent updates with photos. I will definitely book them again in the future and recommend that you do the same!”
“Angela was super accommodating to my last minute, literally, night before request. And Riley immediately responded to Angela despite usually being reserved during an initial meeting. Angela was super responsive and really helped me out a bind. And you could see she really has a wonderful connection with animals. She took Riley for a nice long walk and shared photos. I’ll be using her services again.”
“Olive enjoyed going on walks with Sheryl and loved sitting outside on her beautiful patio! Sheryl has a lot of experience with older dogs and was very attentive to Olive’s needs. We appreciated all she did to make Olive’s first stay as comfortable as possible.”
“Yi-Yu is truly the best! Wolfy has tons of energy and needs daily fetch, and he came home happy and completely tired every single day. She even took him out on the rainiest day, which meant so much to me. Yi-Yu is easygoing, reliable, and clearly loves dogs. I highly recommend her — thank you, Yi-Yu!”
“Nazanin is a wonderful dog sitter! She is very friendly and has great communication, professionalism, and an obvious love for animals. My dog is always excited to see her, and when I pick him up I can tell he's been well looked after because of his calm energy and happy demeanor. Im so thrilled to have found her on Rover.”
“Lisa was amazing !!! I was really worried leaving my four month old puppy somewhere new for the first time. Lisa was really understanding and reassuring of all my concerns, and she kept me updated throughout! She sent me so many cute pictures and videos ? Moose will definitely be back!”
“Thank you for taking the best care of my nervous girl today! Menghan went over and above making my shy gal comfortable and keeping me updated throughout the day. She came home super tired 🥰”
“Ariel was wonderful with my puppy, Mooka. From the start, she was punctual, kind, and very attentive to Mooka’s needs. Ariel kept me updated throughout the booking, which gave me peace of mind. I really appreciated her care and patience, especially with a young dog. I would definitely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter.”
“Zac and his wife were amazing with our 6-year-old French bulldog, Nola. From the moment we dropped her off, it was clear she was in great hands. They were attentive, caring, and made sure she was comfortable throughout the day. Nola came back happy and relaxed, which says it all. We couldn’t have asked for better sitters and will definitely trust them again in the future. Highly recommend!”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, along with time spent as a former SPCA volunteer. Through my volunteer work, I assisted with daily care, feeding, cleaning, enrichment, and helping animals feel safe and comfortable in a shelter environment. In addition to dogs and cats, I have experience caring for reptiles and fish, including maintaining proper habitats, feeding schedules, and monitoring health and behavior. I’m attentive to routines, patient with different personalities, and comfortable following detailed care instructions to ensure every pet receives the care they’re used to. I treat every pet like my own and prioritize safety, consistency, and clear communication. I’m always happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can have total peace of mind while you’re away. Pet care is a regular part of my daily routine, so I’m able to give pets the time and attention they deserve. I structure my day around feedings, walks, playtime, and drop-ins, making sure each pet’s normal routine is maintained. I’m flexible with scheduling and always communicate clearly so owners know their pets are being well cared for. - Safety, routine, and gentle handling are top priorities - Calm, clean, and secure environment - Former SPCA volunteer with shelter-care experience - Respectful of pets’ boundaries and owners’ homes - Regular updates and clear communication
“Yoonjoo took amazing care of Snoop! She was very flexible with drop offs and pick ups. Snoop always needed to have a nap when he got home so he definitely had a blast! She is great with sending photos and updates throughout the day as well!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over three years, both through my own pet care work and by helping at a relative’s dog shelter. This has given me experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. With a flexible schedule, I have plenty of time for walks, cuddles, and play. Plus, living right beside a dog park means your pup will enjoy daily adventures and social time with other furry friends. I'm currently working very short hours occasionally on the weekdays so Il have lots of time to spend with the furry friends. I can also give them as many walks as needed throughout the day. I live in a decent sized apartment with lots of room for the pets to walk around. I live in a modern, pet friendly building and minutes away is a nicely built brand new dog park. Pets are allowed on furnitures in my apartment.
“Setayesh did an absolutely amazing job as my dog sitter! I couldn’t have been happier leaving my 7 month old puppy, Leo, in her care. She went above and beyond to ensure Leo was safe, happy, and comfortable throughout the entire time. What truly stood out was how frequently she updated me with photos and videos of Leo, which was so reassuring. It was clear that Leo was in great hands and having a wonderful time. Her attention to detail, care, and love for animals shone through in everything she did. Knowing that Leo was being well taken care of gave me complete peace of mind. I would highly recommend Setayesh to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional dog sitter. Thank you, Setayesh, for taking such great care of my pup! 🐾😊 Certainly will see you again.”
“Britt was amazing. We got stuck in getting back to pick Rufus up and she was so accommodating and that we are so grateful. She kept us up to date with photos throughout the day which we loved. Cannot recommend Britt enough! Thank you again”
“My sassy husky was so happy! He greeted Liam as an old friend. Liam went above and beyond to take exceptional care of my Bart. I highly recommend and will book again in the future!”

There are 2,323 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in West Vancouver. About 87% of West Vancouver 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.
Your dog’s first day care experience is a big milestone! To help your pup settle in comfortably, we recommend:
- Food and treats portioned for the day, with feeding instructions
- Your dog's leash and collar (ensure tags are up-to-date)
- Any seasonal gear, such as paw-safe wax for winter or a cooling vest for the summer
- Medication, if applicable, with clear dosage notes
- Any special care instructions or training tips to help your sitter provide the most personalized care possible
Tip: Upload this information directly through the Rover app before drop-off. The more context you provide, the better your sitter can tailor the day to your dog.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your West Vancouver commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
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.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in BC ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines such as the DHPP or DA2PP, Rabies, and Bordetella.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 80% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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.
