Really appreciated Nasrin helping take Brandy out and spending time with her on a day I was away all day. She provided photos, a video and an update on how the visit went. Brandy is a shy girl but is really taking to Nasrin so looking forward to having her help again in the near future!

This was our first time using Rover and Hayley was great. Very communicative and easygoing. Best of all, we came home to a stress-free and happy cat. Would recommend and happily rebook Hayley.

About: I have experience helping take care of my younger sibling’s dog, and through that experience I realized how much I genuinely love being around animals. I enjoy spending time with dogs, making them feel comfortable, and giving them lots of attention and care. I’m patient, responsible, and happy to help with walks, feeding, playtime, and keeping pets company. I especially enjoy creating a calm and loving environment so pets feel safe and happy while their owners are away. I’m currently working online at home, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give pets the attention and care they need. I’m available on weekends for boarding and most weekdays after 2 PM. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, going on walks, playing with them, and making sure they feel comfortable and loved. Safety and trust are very important to me. I always make sure pets are in a clean, calm, and secure environment. I carefully follow feeding schedules, walking routines, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I also make sure pets receive lots of attention, patience, and affection so they feel safe and relaxed while in my care.

About: I'm a lifelong dog lover from the UK currently traveling around Canada. I’ve had dogs in my home all my life and have spent the last 7 years dog sitting for a wide range of breeds from energetic dogs who need long, adventurous walks, to older dogs who just enjoy a gentle stroll and relaxing in the park. I’ve also trained my own dog and a friends so I’m comfortable reinforcing commands. Being around dogs is something i miss while traveling, so I’d love the chance to help care for yours as if they were my own. I’m not working so I will be able to follow any routine the dog or animal has. I love to go on long walks so will happily take the dog out for as long as you recommend I am constantly aware of the animals in my care and keep an eye on them whether it’s in the garden at the park or in the house. This also mean I will follow any rules that the owner has set out

About: My family and I are owners to a three year old big lab/mastiff cross who although is a gentle giant, can also get a bit crazy so if I can handle him I think I can handle anything. I’ve had a dog my whole life and I can’t imagine life without one. I have lots of experience dog sitting with both small and big dogs and there’s nothing I enjoy more than spending my days with them. When I am hanging out with the dogs I want them to feel totally at ease while keeping to their normal habits and routine, whether that be their normal walks, play time or snuggling. While you’re away from your pets they are missing you so I like to give them love and comfort while you’re gone.

About: I’ve been a dog lover for as long as I can remember. I got my first dog, a Yorkie Terrier, when I was 15, and I cared for him like he was my own child. He taught me so much about responsibility, patience, and unconditional love. Now I have a 4-month-old Westie Terrier, and I give him the same love and attention every day. I know how important it is to make pets feel safe, happy, and loved — just like family. That’s exactly how I’ll care for yours too. 🐾 I work from home as a freelance web developer, so my schedule is very flexible. I spend most of my time at home, which means I have plenty of time to play with the dogs, take them for walks, and give them all the attention they need. Pets are never left alone for long — they’re part of my daily routine. I have a sweet dog at home who will be a great companion for your pup,, they’ll never feel lonely! My apartment has a secure, fenced patio where dogs can play safely and enjoy the outdoors. I also live in a very pet-friendly area with lots of green spaces and safe walking paths, perfect for daily walks and playtime. Your dog will feel right at home here, cared for and loved as part of the family.

I raised two dogs in my life. I live with my partner and our schedule support each other to take turns take care of our pets. We love spending time with animals and are responsible for them. I’m a full time master student but only going to school two days a week. I’ll always be aware of what they are doing and how they are feeling. If they come to me for something, I’ll always try my best to figure out what they need. I also emphasize taking care of pets as one of my important routines, which helps me maintain my schedule regularly.

About: In my pre-Canada days, I had a blast caring for pets! I trained my award-winning German Shepherd (Jessie) to be a little champ at 5 months old and supported her as she navigated the challenges and stresses of motherhood for the first time, helping her become a great mom to her puppies. A furry tale of cats and character was brought to me by Umka, the feline queen, and her adventurous kittens were a little bundle of surprises that turned my life into a delightful circus. Now in the land of maple leaves, my experience in caring for a cat clan and a faithful dog sets elevate my pet sitting service. I combine instinctive empathy with a flair for fun, offering your pets a uniquely attentive and engaging stay, where their happiness is my priority. I am working from home most days of the week and my family just moved to a townhouse with a backyard and a park right outside the fence. Pet care works well with my schedule and I am highly flexible with my time. 1150 sqf of space for running (and sleeping) + a fenced backyard in a pet friendly neighborhood and 2 dog parks one block of each other

About: I love animals. They hold a special place in my heart and I take pride in being the best pet sitter I can be. From active days out on a hike to lazy sunday snuggles, I am dedicated to providing your pet with the best care possible. I care for all pets like they are my own babies, providing them with everything they need to stay happy, safe and healthy. I have a very strong background in pet care, I’ve been working with animals since I was a little girl and I have several years of training and experience with all kinds of animals. I am very passionate about the work I do. Animals have had a significant impact on me and have been important part of my life. I was a vet assistant for a couple years before deciding to go back to school full time to get my degree for a higher level position. I have lots of experience in caring for animals and providing round the clock care. Being on call at the Vet’s didn't work with my school schedule but I hope to go back when I'm done with school. Animals are my passion, and caring for them is an important part of my day to day life. Friends and Family trust me with their pets because they know I provide the best care, and after booking with me I hope you do too! Currently taking a semester break so I will have lots of free time, and can give your pets my full attention. I currently have a very flexible schedule, so timing is not a problem. Late nights or early mornings are both doable, I'm just a text away! My roommate’s husky - they moved away but I took care of him for about 4 years - and I loved going on long walks at the beach, hikes, nature trails and anywhere with lots of room to sniff and play. He also loved going to the dog park, and I'm happy to take your dogs too. Let me know if you have any favourite walking spots! 😄🐕 I work full time on Rover. I love going on walks and adventures such as the beach, nature trails, and hikes with the pup and having a nice active day out :) When I take care of animals, I prioritise safety, comfort, and happiness. I make sure their needs always are met. They will get plenty of water, a healthy amount of food, lots of exercise, sunshine and play time, and lots of belly rubs. During their stay, I provide pet parents with live pictures and videos, as well as regular check-ins, so you can be assured that your loved ones are properly cared for and in good hands.

We had such a great first experience with Natalie and Andrew! We have 3 cats at home and we were a bit nervous leaving them for a few days while visiting family. I had peace of mind the whole time thanks to them! Great communication, always provided regular updates and photos, and even made sure the litter areas were kept clean. We came home to relaxed and happy kitties. It can be hard to find someone we can trust to care for our cats, but now we have someone we trust and would gladly book again! Thank you so much!

Whitney and her family came twice a day to our home. She took pictures of our pets and recorded the daily litter box habits and eating patterns. She gave us an update on their well-being. We were surprised that our pets were quite social. They can be shy when they encounter new people. We had no problems and were very satisfied. Thank you.

I had such a wonderful experience with Yifang taking care of my kitten while I was away. From the very beginning, communication with her was smooth and reassuring. She was always quick to respond to my messages and kept me updated every day with photos and notes about how my kitten was doing. It really gave me peace of mind knowing that my little girl was in such caring hands. Yifang went above and beyond to make sure my kitten was happy and comfortable. She spent time playing with her, made sure she had fresh food and water, cleaned up after her, and even paid attention to the little details that only a true animal lover would notice. I could tell my kitten felt very comfortable and safe with her, which is so important at this young age. Coming home, I could see that my kitten was calm, well cared for, and in great spirits. Yifang’s kindness, reliability, and genuine love for animals really stand out. I’m so grateful for her help and will definitely book with her again in the future. I highly recommend Yifang to anyone looking for a responsible, trustworthy, and truly caring sitter. She’s simply amazing!

You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.

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 White Rock 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 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.

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:

  • 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
