“So, this was our first time doing this and honestly best experience we could ask for! Amanda was fantastic we did a meet and greet a day prior and it was great seeing our dogs enjoy other dogs other than each other. The pictures were sent and we loved that! Again if I could give 10 I would give 10 stars!”
“Coryn was great! She went out of her way to meet with Milagro, and even do a group walk beforehand, to get her comfortable with the transition. She was very accommodating on drop off/pick up as well. Milagro enjoyed her stay very much (especially the trip to the park). Thanks Coryn.”
“This was Mayas first time staying at someone’s house besides our family. They were super responsive and sent pictures of Maya while we were away. Bailey seemed like she had a great system for getting Maya comfortable when she first arrived. Also, they have an awesome fence that gave us such peace of mind. Maya was in great hands! We would totally book with them again in the future.”
“We have brought our puppy Sam Several time to Thea and he always can’t wait to get out of the car to see her. He comes back happy and we so appreciate the sense that Sam is reared like he was her own!”
“Kathy was outstanding with our pup, Cali. She provided daily updates and pictures making us feel very comfortable while being away. Will use Kathy again in the future, highly recommend!”
“Sathyagopal and his family took such great care of Cosmo! Cosmo went on walks, played fetch, and got lots of pats. We got sweet updates and photos, and Sathyagopal made sure Cosmo got his medication.”
“Frieda was a happy girl when she came home. She seemed to have enjoyed her stay. Anna was flexible and worked with Frieda's need to be with people. We appreciate Anna's ability to accommodate Frieda's needs. Would love to use Anna again.”
“Super kind and communicated with an update once a day. Definitely recommend to anyone that needs help with their four-legged family member. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again for future dog-sitter needs.”
“Briana is definitely comfortable taking care of dogs. This was the first time ever to leave my puppy with a "stranger" and other dogs. My energetic puppy instantly warmed up to Briana's small dog and Briana was so calm and helped my puppy quickly become comfortable with her bigger dog. My puppy had SO MUCH FUN at Briana's with her fun dogs and huge backyard (an Australian Shepherd's dream yard). I was and would be totally comfortable leaving my baby at her home!”
“Brenda is awesome. We were hesitant to leave our Millie for so long but Brenda made us feel comfortable right away. She and her hubby took great care of her. Millie gets along well with her dog, too.”
“This was our second time using Kate for dog sitting and everything was great. She provides pick up and drop off services too which is so helpful and appreciated. Definitely look forward to booking again in the future.”
“I boarded my two dogs with Steven, he was very responsive and attentive! He sent photo and video updates, which was so thoughtful and reassuring. If you're looking for a responsible, caring, and communicative dog sitter who will treat your pet like family, Steven is the person you want. I'll definitely be using his services again!”
“Annmarie is a literal dog whisperer & GEM! Brings in my rambunctious boy, sometimes with very short notice, and calms him with her pure existence! Thank you, Annmarie! Oakley loves being with you and his friends, and we appreciate the love and patience you show him!”
“Alexandra & Georgi were amazing! Pluto is super anxious and they did a great job. I also got consistent updates, and when I picked him up, he slept through the whole day. I would definitely book again!”
“Eunju spoiled our labrador completely! She took her to various parks for long walks and puppy adventures. Eunju makes it easy to travel with peace of mind, sending daily updates & taking care of our dog so lovingly.”
“Blue had a great stay at Vicki and William’s house! They are both so kind and I felt no worries at all when leaving him in their care. The amount of communication, updates, and photos are amazing and are so helpful when I miss my pup. Their dog Bentley is also very sweet so I’m glad Blue has a friend!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Sylvan Lake
Jasper had a wonderful stay while we were on vacation! He’s still a young puppy, and he had an absolute blast spending the week playing with their dog in the backyard. It was such a relief to know he was having fun while we were away. We’d happily book with them again!
I am incredibly grateful and humbled by the outstanding care Coryn and Kyle provided for my two dogs. They handled everything perfectly, from reliably administering medications to ensuring they got plenty of walks. What truly gave me peace of mind was their amazing communication; they kept me completely in the loop the entire time with frequent photos and video updates. It is clear they treated my pups like family, and they come highly recommended by myself for anyone looking for top-notch care!
Miranda and Erica looked after our Molly for two weeks. We really appreciated their communication with pictures and videos every day. We had originally booked a commercial boarding site but am so happy we found Miranda and Erica so Molly got personal attention. We've already signed Molly up for her next visit!
We would highly recommend this sitter! He watched our dogs, Alpa and Marty, and did a wonderful job. We really appreciated the photos and updates he provided — it gave us peace of mind knowing our dogs were well cared for. Dogs came home happy and healthy! We would not hesitate having our dogs stay with Emil again.
Chhaya and her family are amazing! Our dog, Mason, absolutely loved his time there. Chhaya sent a lot of pictures which showed how much they spoiled and loved Mason. They threw the ball, cuddled him, and let him sleep on the bed. All of his favorite things! Thank you, Chhaya! I will definitely book again.

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Sylvan Lake home-away-from-home, 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 favorite hang-out spots in your Sylvan Lake.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Sylvan Lake sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog.

Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
