“Kimberley was amazing with my dog! I loved how she just fit him in with her life during the overnight stay. I know he was well cared for and pampered. I highly recommend Kimberley.”
“Kirstin and Justin really love dogs! It was so nice to have them walk my dogs for me. They sent pictures of the dogs enjoying the walks. Kirstin and Justin are both very friendly and understanding about my hyper, jumpy lab. They have lots of experience with handling dogs and it was so nice to have their help.”
“Kaela loves dogs! You could tell and dogs love her too. I had no worries eject Kaela was walking Tuck! She took pictures and provided a log of Tuckers walk. All this in just 30 minutes. Fantastic. I will definitely be a repeat customer! Thank you Kaela!”
“Katie is the most reliable, most trustworthy dog lover I have ever had since I got rover years ago. My dog has leash anxiety and freaks out about the strangest things. Katie deals with that no problem, her loving and calm demeanor is exactly what my pup needs. And now Pippi waits for her daily walkie with Katie at the door in anticipation. She takes her for longer walks on days the dog is full of beans and will play with her in the yard on days its too hot or rainy. Katie is there for the dog and always treats my baby with love. Katie is THE ONE.”
“Jessica is amazing! Communication is great, she is friendly, knowledgeable, caring. She takes my dog for walks and my dog loves it. I highly recommend her, I have booked with Jessica a couple of times now and will continue to book with her :)”
About: I’m an undergraduate student working toward becoming a veterinarian and have been caring for animals my whole life. I have experience with cats, dogs, hamsters, and fish, and I’m comfortable with pets of all temperaments. I’ve provided advanced care for cats and dogs, including tube feeding, wound care, and grooming sensitive areas. I’ve also worked in a veterinary clinic assisting with common procedures. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with animals—whether that’s playing, grooming, or just giving them lots of affection. I’m always looking to learn more about dog and cat care, so I bring both experience and a willingness to grow. I am willing to go above and beyond to care for your dog! I currently work late nights at a bar on the weekends and keep busy with my own pets during the weekdays. In my home, I regularly groom my cats and dog and give my senior dog extra care for her sensitive skin and allergies. I’m attentive to each pet’s specific needs and make sure they’re comfortable and well cared for. In both my home and a client’s home, I keep things calm and safe and follow the pet’s usual routine as closely as possible. I spend time playing, cuddling, and making sure they’re getting the attention they need, while also respecting their boundaries and comfort levels. I also like to make simple toys or enrichment activities to keep them engaged.
About: I’ve had puppies, kittens, even 10-day-old kittens that needed around-the-clock bottle feeding and care, so I’m no stranger to the messy, adorable, and sometimes chaotic side of pet parenting! I’ve grown up with animals my entire life, and my fur babies are truly my pride and joy. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family - whether that means long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just making sure they feel safe and loved while you’re away. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages and needs. You can expect lots of updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing your pet is in caring, experienced hands I work from home during the week and have very flexible hours, so it's easy for me to accomadate your schedule to make your fur baby feel as comfortable as possible while you're gone. Other than Sunday morning church services, my weekends are completely open to you! When caring for pets in a client’s home, my goal is to keep everything as consistent and stress-free as possible for them. I follow your pet’s routine closely - including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any specific instructions you provide. I’m also very mindful of keeping your home clean and respected, leaving things exactly as I found them (or better!). As someone who has 3 cats who's main goal in life is to escape to the great outdoors (and fails every time), safety is always a top priority, so I stay alert on walks, secure doors and gates, and keep a close eye on your pet’s behaviour and well-being. I’ll also keep you updated with regular messages and photos so you always know how your pet is doing.
About: I have cared for cats and dogs my entire life. My family bred Labradors, Great Danes, and Rottweilers while I grew up, so have a lot of exposure with doggy care. Although I currently only have a cat, I love all animals and would be happy to make your pet's life better while they are missing you :) I have a flexible work schedule which allows me to make my own hours, and work remotely. As such I'm here to give your pet all the attention they need! I will make sure your pet gets the best care. Love, kindness, play time, treats as allowed, as well as a gentle but firm understanding of boundaries and proper behaviour guidelines. Also happy to take and send videos and photos to reassure my fellow pet parents!
“I’m so grateful for Jocelyn’s flexibility and willingness to accommodate us on short notice. Timon had a wonderful time on his walk and came back happy and well-exercised.”
About: I am a registered veterinary technician who works at an emergency clinic. I have been working with animals my whole life. I have been fostering dogs for the last 5 years, providing them with training and helping them find their forever homes once they are ready. I have recently started boarding dogs at my house as I moved to a farm and had the land and space to run them and give them everything they need. I would offer additional services with my boarding if the client would like, these services would included training, nail trims, ear cleanings, etc. I have two high energy dogs who need a lot of time running off leash per day. I am always taking them in the bush, on the trails, on hikes or on bike rides to tire them out. The best suited dog to board with me would be one that is successful off leash with recall, as we spend 2 hours per day off leash in the bush as well as off leash time in my yard. I live on 5 acres so there is many opportunity to run and play. My dogs are very good with new dogs coming into our home as they are use to me bringing home new fosters very often. Both of them are crate trained, place trained and e collar trained and are very respectful of other dogs space. They like to wrestle and play when the time is right, and know when it is time to rest. My dogs know that outside is play time, and when we are inside that is their time to rest either on their beds or in their crates.
About: I’ve been a Veterinarian Technician for 17 years. I have experience working with many different species. I have also done lots of pet sitting throughout the years. I am capable of giving medications, nails trims, supportive care, you name it! I live on a hobby farm so have experience with chickens, goats, donkeys and horses. I currently have a 2 year old yorkie “Gordon” who loves the company of other dogs, no matter what size! I’m currently home throughout the week so can be available almost anytime throughout the day. I’m very active so happy to take your pup for a nice walk. We are a very adventurous family so often away on the weekends so my weekends will be limited. I’ve been an animal lover my entire life so I can assure you that I would treat yours as if they were my own. I will follow all instructions given along with lots of love and cuddles.
About: I’ve been house and pet-sitting since I was 16. Always making sure my friends and family can step away with zero stress and their fur babies are the star of the show! I’ve taken care of small to medium sized mostly, but large dogs a few times. No matter where I go, pets gravitate towards me! My schedule is very flexible and I have great knowledge of the city with reliable transportation. I play sports in the evening a few days a week but nothing that can’t be worked around I will ensure I study the area my clients live in and discuss the areas and routines your pets are accustomed to. Also, the type words they respond to. I always want to ensure they will feel safe and comfortable.
About: I have loved animals my whole life, and have grown up around cats and dogs. I ensure that your pet has the best experience possible while you’re away, including any special requests you may have. I make sure to provide lots of love and care to your pet to make them as comfortable as possible while I’m in their space. I am always happy to provide updates/photos on your pet and keep all lines of communication open at all times. Thanks for reading my profile! I am fully flexible with my schedule and can accommodate pet care daily throughout the day. I have a reliable car and can travel within a reasonable distance. I ensure all steps are followed for your pets care based on your instructions. I provide sitting services and walking services, so I follow the pet-owners requests for how they would like things to be done. On top of that, I make sure your furry friend gets lots of love and attention so they feel cared for and safe. Please note: I ask all security/pet cameras inside the home be disclosed before I begin the stay, and whether they will be recording while I’m inside your home. I reserve the right to request cameras be turned off while I’m in the home. Thank you!
About: I have been a volunteer dog foster in Ottawa for more than 8 years now! No matter the injury, background, or breed, I have learnt to deal with them all. Pet care fills easily in my life as I have been doing it for awhile now! I do work a part-time job and will need to leave for around 5 hours in the day but just me about dates and times and I will adjust my schedule ! I treat everyone with respect! I don’t overcrowd or intrude but make you and your pet feel comfortable in my presence. Frequent contact and communication is a valuable skill of mine
“Alecia is great! Lily is high energy but she is very happy and tired out by the time Alecia brings her home. She even looks out for my cat Kiki when they go for walks! Would definitely recommend her.”

There are 1,254 sitters on Rover for Dog Walking in Ashton. About 85% of Ashton 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.
Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in Ashton. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighbourhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
Tip: Keep in mind that many cities in Canada require your dog walker to have a permit or licence for group walks.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance travelled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Ashton.
Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s walk begins.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits, dog walking, and doggy day care. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find walkers in Ashton with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.
Every walker 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 walker.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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.
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 Ashton 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!
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 87% 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.
