“Karen was wonderful. Right from the first meeting I knew Finnegan was going to be in good hands. We received pictures from Karen through his stay and he looked like was never going to want to come home. Finn loved the numerous walks and playing with Milo. I will be recommending Karen to our friends when they visit Whistler.”
“Jennie was absolutely fabulous! She took amazing care of our elderly dog , Lax. Jennie kept us updated throughout our trip, made sure he took his medication, and even gave him a bath. It gave us such peace of mind knowing he was in such caring hands. We highly recommend Jennie!”
About: I have looked after dogs and cats for many years. While I don’t have a dog at home currently (my last dog, Iggy, an Australian Kelpie passed away in March at 15 years old) I would like to welcome fur babies from time to time. I work part time from home so I have plenty of time to look after doggies. It’s just my 9 year old daughter and myself and we both adore 4 legged companions. I live on a quiet cul-de-suc with plenty of greenery and snow in winter with a dog park near by (walking distance). I offer plenty of short outdoor breaks or long walks (whatever the preference is). I can provide regular updates and plenty of pictures/videos. I am happy to look after senior dogs or puppies as I have experienced with both.
“Jordan and Riley are amazing! Super friendly and accommodating, as well very knowledgeable and confident with dogs which was comforting when dropping my pup off! Great communication as well, with plenty of updates on how my dog was doing! Will definitely book with them again!”
“Laurence and Charles were gentle and attentive with our older Golden, Molly. They picked her up, walked her often, gave her lots of love and snuggles and made us feel safe knowing Molly was well loved while we were away. Daily photos and updates really helped. Their interaction was kind, polite and very comforting. Highly recommend!!”
“Vanessa took amazing care of our Finnegan and sent us a bunch of photo updates throughout the day. We would definitely book with her again if we were visiting the Whister area ?”
“Amanda and Drew were amazing with our dog Santo. We left santo with them for the weekend and they were very communicative and took great care of him while we were gone. We highly recommend them!!!”
“Sona was super responsive and caring for our two senior pups. She sat with them while we skied and enjoyed Whistler. She made sure they were safe and happy. Would definitely recommend!”

“Amanda and Thomas took care of our dog Red for a day and night when we were out attending a wedding, and we could tell right from start that they are dog people and are super familiar with nervous/anxious dogs. They were both ready with treats for the intro with Red, which was super thoughtful! Red had a great vacation with Amanda and Thomas, felt right at home with them and enjoyed a hike! She was happy to see me when I arrived to pick her up but was also totally happy to stay with Amanda and Thomas. Looks like she had a great time and grateful to have connected with Amanda and Thomas at such short notice.”
“Tori went above and beyond with our little guy, Levon. Her and her partner were wonderfully caring and provided Levon with an excellent experience. Highly recommend to anyone looking!”
“This was our first ever time using Rover and we were thrilled! We had a relaxing night out and our puppy Fran had an awesome night in. She came home sleepy and happy after am evening hanging with her new pals.”
About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and I absolutely love spending time with them! I’ve also worked part-time with a dog walking and pet-sitting business, giving me hands-on experience caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. I’m a very active and energetic person who loves being outdoors, so I’m always happy to take dogs on long walks, hikes, and adventures where they can get the exercise and stimulation they need. Whether your dog is full of energy and needs to burn it off, or prefers a slower-paced stroll with plenty of sniffing, I’m happy to match their pace. I’m very attentive to each dog’s individual needs and take the time to understand their personality, routine, and what makes them comfortable and happy. I’ll treat your dog with the same care and attention I would give my own. Most importantly, I genuinely love dogs and will make sure your furry friend gets plenty of exercise, attention, affection, and care while they’re with me! 🐾 Holds Dogsafe First Aid 101 Certification. Because I work part-time as a server, my schedule is highly flexible, leaving me with plenty of open time during the day to dedicate to your pet. I absolutely love being outdoors, so your furry companion will get to enjoy frequent, long walks and lots of active playtime My unit is pet proof, with zero toxic plants. Feeding schedules will be followed, as well as exercise habits from the owner. If visiting the pet home, I will first conduct a meet and greet.

“Carla and her girls were AMAZING! My husband and I needed someone to watch our puppy last minute and they did the best job taking care of him. Sent photos and videos. Would HIGHLY recommend.”
“Jade and her partner were fantastic, no words can describe how grateful we are for how well they took care of our pup!! Our high-energy dog Ares loves hiking, so they took him on long hikes in nature on both days. Ares had an absolute blast. They cared for him as if he was their own dog. Jade sent plenty of photos and updates and you could tell that Ares loved them so much and felt super comfortable with them. We will definitely leave Ares with them again!! Thank you! ❤️❤️”
“Linley took such incredible care of my female Samoyed. I needed care for 4 days and felt completely at ease the moment I connected with her. She was fantastic at communicating the booking details / requests and kept me updated with photos throughout the time away. She look my pup on many walks and even treated her to a puppy doughnut at Fox & Oak. It was a great experience and I highly recommend her services! I will definitely be rebooking her for future boarding needs.”
About: Hi, I’m Rachel! I’ve spent my whole life around dogs and cats and love spending time in their company. I know how important it is to give pets not just care, but love, patience, and attention. I have owned my own dogs and cats and have worked with them professionally too, as a dog aquafit specialist in Vancouver. Now, i work from home in Squamish a few days a week, which means I can offer plenty of company, playtime, walks and snuggles. I also have a toddler who is very respectful of animals and loves being around them. Your pet will always feel safe and comfortable in our home. Whether it’s walks, cuddles, or just a calm presence, I’ll treat your furry family member like my own. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine because I’ve always had animals in my life. I’m used to feeding, walking, playtime, and giving lots of affection throughout the day. Since I work from home a few days a week, I have the flexibility to provide companionship and regular check-ins. On the days I’m not home full time, I still structure my mornings and evenings around pet care, whether that’s longer walks, cuddle time, or keeping up with their routines. In my home, pets are treated like family. I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved by keeping to their normal routines—whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding schedules, or quiet cuddle time. I’m attentive to their needs and always provide plenty of supervision, affection, and stimulation. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow your instructions closely to make sure your pet feels secure in their own environment. I maintain their regular schedule, give them lots of attention, and provide updates so you know how they’re doing while you’re away.

Vanessa was a fantastic host for Mia! It was so clear and easy to communicate with Vanessa before and during the booking - she was so prompt and clear in replies. Plus, Vanessa sent some very cute photos of Mia as a nice bonus :-) Would absolutely love to have Mia stay with Vanessa again!
Billie had a great time with Holly. Lots of adventures, cuddles and quiet time. Exactly what she needs. I was a bit apprehensive as Billie can be anxious sometimes and this was a big change for her. But Holly knew what to do and both Billie and I were at ease for the week.
Jennie was absolutely fabulous! She took amazing care of our elderly dog , Lax. Jennie kept us updated throughout our trip, made sure he took his medication, and even gave him a bath. It gave us such peace of mind knowing he was in such caring hands. We highly recommend Jennie!
it was Brodie’s first sleepover at Hillary‘s. She is just so caring and gave me lots of feedback while he was there, which is always so reassuring .(Brodie is a Yorkie, and he has a big personality.!)Honestly, I couldn’t ask for a better person to take care of him. I felt like Brodie was in great hands the whole time !
I had a wonderful experience with my dog sitters, Billy and couldn’t recommend him more. He truly treated my dog, Molly like she was his own. She went on lots of walks, got plenty of attention, and looked completely happy and relaxed the entire time. He sent regular photos and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind while I enjoyed skiing with family. One of my favorites was a photo of her rolling on her back, completely carefree and clearly feeling right at home. His communication was excellent from start to finish. Thank you again for taking such great care of my girl!
Tyler (and his wife) were amazing. We needed someone on super short term notice and they took our pup Scooby in within hours. They took extra care of him with his injury and gave him all his medications on time. As he’s a puppy (an exceptionally high maintenance one at that) they had a lot of patience for him and were great at helping him be the best boy. Would definitely use them again and highly reccomend to anyone in Whistler that needs animal care!
Wow, what a lucky find to come across Arvid and for our first Rover experience as well! Incredibly generous with Maple with many walks, adventures and plays. I appreciated the photos and updates- excellent communication throughout. Highly recommend, Arvid will be a Maple buddy forever!

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Whistler home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favourite hang-out spots in your Whistler
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
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.
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 .
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
