“Sarah was wonderful, and I would absolutely book with her again. She took great care of my dog, Gummi, and he got along so well with her Pomeranian, Ellie. I really appreciated the frequent updates and photos because they gave me so much peace of mind knowing Gummi was happy, having fun, and being so well cared for. I highly recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive dog sitter!”
“My fiancée and I were looking for someone to take in and board our senior dog, Dash, during an international trip we had coming up. We are so thankful we found Rosemary! Her sweet and warm personality not only made Dash feel immediately comfortable but also helped make us feel more relaxed knowing he was in such great hands! Rosemary gave us consistent updates and communication on how Dash was doing through out his stay, no matter the difference in time zone! I would 100% rebook and recommend Rosemary to anyone interested in having a fantastic dog sitter!”
“Kristen has watched Watson several times, and he’s always so happy to stay with her (and he never wants to leave when it's time to pick him up)! We really appreciate the photo updates and knowing he’s so well cared for. Thanks, Kristen!”
“Ann watched Missy and Max over the weekend. She has watched them before. When they saw her, their little tales moved back and forth quickly. They never looked back at me and happily went with Ann. I never worried about them because I knew they were an excellent hands. She administered medicine to Missy and Max.. They were fine. She’s a wonderful sitter.. She’s very conscientious caring for your Pat.”
“Jeannie was amazing and so patient with Tilly. Made for a first great weekend away where she did not stay with a relative. She will for sure be going back in the future”
“Christine was awesome in caring for our two elderly dogs at her home!! From the moment we connected by phone, I sensed her warm, caring spirit toward animals. She sent regular updates and photos while we were away. I offer Christine the highest level of recommendation and we definitely plan on utilizing her again in the future.”
“David took very good care of Cooper and Chandler. He was very understanding of both their behaviors. It is very difficult to find someone who cared, observed and communicated as clearly and frequently as David did. 5 out of 5 we would recommend him to any of our friends in the area.”
“My dog is definitely a little nervous Nelly, however, Heather handled him so well! I couldn’t be more happy with the service she provided! Thank you for taking such good care of our boy!”
About: I have a genuine passion for animals and hands-on experience caring for pets of all sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities. From playful puppies and curious kittens to senior pets, I understand that every animal deserves patience, attention, and individualized care. My experience includes feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, litter box maintenance, companionship, and maintaining a clean, safe, and comfortable environment. I believe communication and trust are just as important as great pet care. I want every pet parent to feel confident knowing their furry family members are receiving dependable, loving attention while they're away. Your pets aren't just animals in my care—they're family. I treat every pet with kindness, respect, and the same love and attention I give my own! 🐾 My Pet Care Schedule 🐾 I offer a flexible schedule to accommodate the needs of pets and their families. My goal is to provide consistent, attentive care while keeping your pet comfortable and happy. Morning: Breakfast, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, and morning playtime. Afternoon: Check-ins, feeding, outdoor time, exercise, and companionship. Evening: Dinner, walks, playtime, and plenty of affection. Overnight: Comfortable, attentive care and a peaceful environment. I understand that every pet has a different routine, so I'm happy to work with your pet's individual schedule and needs. Your furry family members will always receive plenty of love, attention, and care! ❤️ Pet Safety Is My Top Priority! 🐾 Your pet's safety and well-being always come first. I provide a clean, secure, and loving environment where pets can feel comfortable and relaxed. I carefully follow feeding instructions, daily routines, and any special care requirements. I always supervise pets, take precautions during walks and outdoor play, ensure gates and doors are secure, and stay attentive to their behavior and needs. I also believe communication is important, so I love keeping pet parents updated with messages and photos. You can feel confident knowing your furry family members are being treated with kindness, patience, and care. Their safety, happiness, and comfort will always be my priority! ❤️
“Had a longer stay for my dog Goose. Matthew was amazing from beginning to the end. He really knows what he’s doing and my fur baby had the best time with him and the other dogs (he’s super pooped and has slept all day since getting back). Matthew dealt with my early drop offs and pickups very well for me and my husband to get a needed vacation. I received daily pictures of Gooses activities. Answered my 1 million questions since it was our first time with Rover. Gave us walking recommendations and adjustments to our insane puller of a dog. 100/10 will always go to them for dog help and care.”
“Jung is an exceptional caretaker. She made my anxious when away from home pup feel comfortable. Jung goes above and beyond to provide the highest level of care. She is honest, punctual, communicative and clear. I would recommend her to anyone!”
“My 2 boy dachshunds spent a 4 day weekend with April. She is the sweetest lady. She gave them the greatest care, (better than home). Their house is set up very well for watching dogs. She sent me daily updates with picture which I really appreciated.”
“Jason’s family took great care of my dog— it’s especially special because I was nervous about having a dog sitter over the holidays. But Cosmo did great! And I appreciated getting little reportbacks and photos everyday. Thank you!”
About: I have 10+ years working with animals including veterinarian assistant and groomer. I have taught puppy preschool, cleaned kennels and have had pets all of my life. I have a good understanding of health and behavior of animals. I have flexibility in my job. I can do early morning, lunchtime and evening care during the week and anytime on the weekends as needed. I will come to your house for a check-in, to let your dog outside and to walk your dog up to three times per day.
“Jack and his partner watched both my dog and cat at their house and I could not be happier with the experience! 10/10 would recommend booking him. Jack is very kind and professional. I got lots of picture updates, he took my dog on lots of very fun adventures, and my cat seemed super happy with the calm and clean house. Will definitely book again whenever I’m back in the area. Thank you Jack!”
“Good communication and easy coordination! Karilla and her partner bonded with my dog quickly and gave lots of updates during the stay. Would definitely book with them again.”

Elaine was terrific! Professional and friendly and most importantly my dog was immediately relaxed with her! She communicated daily with photos and updates and was super flexible arranging drop off and pick up as she kept my dog at her home! Will definitely book Elaine again with Rover!!
Sean will provide excellent care for your baby. I stopped by about a week and a half before Maisie's stay with him for a meet and greet. I quickly went over some care instructions with him, planning on doing it again when dropping Maisie off for her actual stay (it's nerve-wracking leaving your dog with someone new 😬). I can tell he's attentive because while going over her care, he had mentioned details he had already read in her bio. Also when I dropped Maisie off for her stay, he mentioned things I had gone over at the meet and greet. Maisie sometimes doesn't eat in new environments, but we have a couple of work arounds. Sean updated us on day one that they worked, which helped my wife and I truly settle into vacation mode. Sean spoiled Maisie with a beach walk on day one and continued to provide updates, even saving a small piece of cooked bacon in case I was okay with Maisie eating it later. I had mentioned that we've taught Maisie not to beg. We do however give her little bits from time to time as long as it's not from the kitchen or our plates, and this part I had not mentioned. He handled that situation exactly as we would have in our household and it made us so happy that he was thinking of her. Sean is a laid-back dude and he's also a pro. Be assured your pup is in good hands.
April and her husband were amazing. They took her on short notice including a meet and greet. They understood her and her quirkiness and energy level. April gave updates on Esther’s stay, incredible communication if needed anything and regularly sent fun pictures. We will not hesitate to book April in the future. Amazing caregiver!!!!
Moira watched my pup, Keiko, for 5 days, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Leaving your dog can be stressful, but Moira went above and beyond to make sure Keiko felt safe, comfortable, and loved the entire time. She sent tons of pictures and video updates throughout the stay, which gave me complete peace of mind. Keiko was so well cared for, happy, and settled! I will definitely be booking with Moira again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful, trustworthy dog sitter.
Sandy and her husband were so great. They gave our dog such great care and sent pics and videos. Great communication. You can tell they truly love animals and they have an amazing backyard. My dog felt comfortable with them really quickly and I will definitely be a return customer.
I knew immediately when dropping off Yoda at Carrie’s home that Yoda was going to be well taken care of. Carrie sent plenty of pictures and Yoda looked right at home! She had plenty of company and space to roam. I could tell Yoda was hesitant to leave here new home (; We would definitely leave Yoda with Carrie again!
Tosha was great, she was a great communicator and let us know how Nellie was doing with photos and a video during her stay. I especially loved seeing Nellie playing with her own little dogs, and having a great time. Tosha was prepared and organized, I was impressed at the notes she took and questions she asked me about Nellie to make sure she would be comfortable and well taken care of. She did a great job and I highly recommend her.
Annabelle graciously accepted a very last-minute boarding request due to an unexpected schedule change. Ollie had a wonderful time during his stay. Annabelle and her family was incredibly flexible, communicative, and caring throughout the entire experience. It gave us great peace of mind knowing Ollie was in such good hands. We truly appreciate everything she did and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.
Fran was wonderful! She took amazing care of Pepper, taking her on walks, providing plenty of toys, setting up her blanket for a comfortable place to sleep that reminded her of home and even taking her to a swimming hole. She provided regular updates including videos and photos. I was able to fully enjoy my time away knowing that Pepper was having fun with Fran and her pup Murphy. Fran clearly loves dogs and has lots of experience. Do not hesitate to book with Fran.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Boarding in Vancouver is $50 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $31 and $67 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
There are 2,451 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Vancouver. About 91% of 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.
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.
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
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.
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 WA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
