“I left my pup with them for her very first time. Jennifer was very communicative throughout her stay. I received tons of updates, along with photos and videos. I highly recommend them to anyone.”
“Angela took really good care of Lily for the day. She did a great job at communicating with us through the whole process. We would have her look after Lily again.”
“Our puppy has had the pleasure of being in Tosha's care for countless times. She is very caring and playful with Stetson. Tosha is always my first call for sitting and daycare.”
“Sheryl was a wonderful puppy-sitter for my labradoodle. She was very loving to my dog and very understanding when my schedule changed and we needed to amend the original booking. I felt very confident leaving my dog with Sheryl who developed a bond to Sheryl very quickly. I will be utilizing Sheryl as a puppy-sitter again in the future.”
“Coco had a great stay with Lisa! I booked pretty last minute (the day before), but Lisa accepted quickly and arranged a meet-and-greet with me and my dog. She is really friendly, gentle and my dog got along well with her instantly! During the day where Coco stayed with Lisa, Lisa sent me a lot of photos and updates. I will definitely use her services again, and would also recommend her to my friends with dogs!”
“Hachi came home happy and tired. He must have had a great time with Nazanin. She sent me photos of Hachi relaxing on her couch. It looked like Hachi was so comfortable as if he knew her well on his first visit! Nazanin has a way with dogs and Hachi instinctively knew. I am so grateful that I don’t need to worry about my pup when Nazanin looks after him. I will definitely recommend her.”
“Keiona and her partner were fabulous with my 6 month old puppy. They were very alert and respected my wish to get an update 45 mins to an hour. My puppy was so glad with her stay that she kept going to them instead of going home with me lol.”
“Thanks for being flexible with our schedule! Sherri came back tired and ready to sleep - seemed like she had a great day playing with her new friends! We'll definitely be in touch in the future.”
“Lucy was wonderful with our husky Bailey, who came back to us after day care exhausted in the best way. Lucy listened to all our needs, she took Bailey on some great walks and her communication is excellent. She kept us updated and took lots of great photos! Looking forward to her taking our pup again.”
“Carey and Kaja were absolutely amazing sitters for my dogs, Finley and Oliver! From the start, they were incredibly responsive and made me feel at ease leaving my pups in their care while my sister and I skied. They provided frequent updates, including pictures and messages, which reassured me that Finley and Oliver were happy, safe, and well cared for. It was clear they treated my dogs like their own, giving them plenty of love, attention, and exercise. When I picked them up, both dogs were relaxed and content—always a sign of a great sitter! I highly recommend Carey and Kaja to anyone looking for reliable, caring, and trustworthy dog sitters. I will definitely be booking with them again in the future!”
“Yuhong and her family were so kind to my pup, he had a great day with them. Yuhong was very attentive and gave lots of photo updates throughout the day, I really appreciated it!”
“Issac is amazing - extremely caring, reliable and accommodating! He met us early morning at a closer location, sent us pictures of the bean during the day, walked him many times and brought him to the dog park to play with other fluffy friends. Highly recommend!”
“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 🥰”
“I am out of words to express how grateful I am for the care my dog, Bobo, received. All this happened when I had to travel to Canada on a days notice due to work. On such short notice, she welcomed Bobo into her home and made her feel completely at ease. Her sweet dog, Loki, quickly became Bobo’s best buddy, which made me so happy. She took Bobo on regular walks, sent me updates, and made me feel truly at peace while I was away. It’s rare to find someone so kind, reliable, and genuinely loving toward animals. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again — Bobo is already looking forward to her next visit!”
“What a wonderful couple who were so kind, caring and patient with our anxious rescue! Our pooch isn’t usually a fan of people, but warmed super quickly to Luiz and Luciana! They followed our instructions and sent regular updates. We’ll be regular clients!”
“Tanya is really friendly, good at communicating, and took excellent care of my Ollie boy! She provided me with updates and photos throughout the stay and I always felt like Ollie was in good hands. Won't hesitate to book again!”
“Alejandra was so amazing with my puppy, Phoebe! She sent lots of photos and asked clarifying questions to ensure Phoebe was safe and happy. I felt good (and so relieved!) knowing my puppy was in good hands for the day.”

There are 2,285 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in West Vancouver. About 88% 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:
- 81% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 99% 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.
