About: I have had dogs nearly my entire life and love their individual personalities and quirks. I have experience pilling animals, and can help trim nails/bathe pets as needed. I am available 24/7, 365, as long as I have proper notice. I know emergencies can happen and because I make my own work schedule, I can be available when you need. I have a one bedroom apartment, so would be best suited for cat sitting, small - medium sized dogs that would enjoy a residential neighborhood or small park walks. In your environment, I'm happy to follow any specific rules or needs you may have for home or pet care! There is no request too strange to ensure the safety and comfort for you and your animals!

About: I grew up on a farm basically so I am used to being around all kinds of animals of all sizes! I have experience pet sitting dogs with anxiety/separation issues, dogs with mobility issues, dogs that need medication & I don’t scare easily. I am currently open for the summer trying to find jobs to stay busy! I am a SMU alumni who is attending grad school in the fall :) I am able to do whatever your preferences are for you and your pet! Having a new person around can be quite intimidating for your pet so I want to respect their boundaries and make sure they are not only well taken care of, but also feel safe with me
“Kristina was awesome to work with! She took our pup on long walks and sent loads of pictures. She communicated with us very quickly and sent updates on how he was doing. We felt he was well looked after in our absence. Thanks so much, Kristina!”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, from small to large breeds!

I provide a safe, comfortable environment where they can relax and enjoy themselves.

About: Hi! I'm based in Brantford and provide dog walking, drop-in visits, cat care, and overnight house sitting. I've cared for animals throughout my life and have hands-on experience with dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, feeding, medication support, litter box cleaning, or simply company while you're away, I aim to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I know how important updates are when you're away from your pet, so I make sure to send photos and messages throughout each booking. My goal is simple: to treat your pets with the same patience, care, and attention I'd want for my own. Caring for animals is something I truly enjoy, and I’ve made space in my daily routine for walks and drop-in visits that fit your pet’s schedule. I’m flexible and reliable, whether your pup needs a quick potty break, some mid-day exercise, or a little extra love while you’re out. While I don’t offer overnight stays, I make sure every visit is filled with care, attention, and consistency to keep your pet happy and comfortable while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I use secure leashes and harnesses on every walk, and I’m always alert to our surroundings to keep your pet out of harm’s way. During pet sitting, I create a calm, loving environment where your pet can feel relaxed and cared for. I follow your instructions closely and treat your home with respect—like it’s my own. You can count on me to be reliable, gentle, and fully focused on your pet’s well-being at all times.
“I’m so happy I found Morgan to walk my dog! She was so sweet, patient, and caring with my dog. My dog came home happy and tired, and I could tell they had such a great time. It’s not easy trusting someone else with your fur baby, but she made it feel so easy. You can truly tell that she treats every dog like they’re her own. I’m so proud of her for starting this because I know she’s going to be incredible at it. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and genuinely passionate about dogs, I would absolutely recommend booking with her. Your pup will be in the best hands! 🐾❤️”
About: Hi! I’m Laura, and I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for well over 10 years. I’ve cared for my own pets as well as family, friends’, and neighbours’ animals, and I’ve had experience with a wide variety of dog breeds and personalities, including small breeds, large guardian breeds and high-energy herding breeds. I'm the type to occasionally and very casually (and safely) cross the street to ask if I can pet your dog. I’m responsible, active, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’d love to help keep your pets happy and comfortable at home, out on a walk, or just by checking in. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I’m a mature student in a hybrid program, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to spend a lot of time with the pets in my care. I’m happy to follow your routines and instructions closely, and I understand that caring for your home is part of the responsibility too. I’ll treat your space with the same care and respect I give your animals. House sitting is my favourite way to care for pets because I know how much easier it can be for them to stay in their own home and follow their usual routine while their people are away. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs, whether that means an energetic walk, plenty of fetch or playtime, a quiet companion for a shy cat, or simply keeping an older dog comfortable and settled.
“Thanks so much for being able to walk the girls with such a short notice. It’s wonderful to have reliable people in our neighborhood. Not only do I walk their dog Cooper on Rover but now they also are providers. They sent great photos and it’s clear our dogs enjoyed their time with David and Jenna.”
About: I’ve gotten experience with various animals over the years. I love to support them and help them feel happy and cared for. I’m careful not to teach bad habits. I listen to what they want and need. Tell me what you need and I can fit something in! I am available most of the time in someway - so we can work it out! I use a calm tone where I don’t overexcite the animal and provide good manners reinforcement and also play and engagement. I make sure I am predictable and don’t cause the animal to be uncertain. I follow training and routine that the animal is most used to. I assert my boundaries so the animal knows what to expect from me. I like to give the animal space and respect. I also love to show affection or approval through touch sometimes and especially through positive communication and rewards.

I take care of your pets as family and my own with love patience, respect and kindness. I am a calm individual who has been through a lot of situations with dogs and cats.

“Victoria was great to work with and took good care of our pup for walks and potty breaks. Her communication was great and she was reliable. I think our pup felt comfortable with her and we'll hire her again!”
“Stacey did a great job with Boscoe! We needed someone for a last minute walk while we were out for the day and Stacey was super responsive and thoughtful! Boscoe had a great time with her and is excited to see her again!”
About: I have always been extremely passionate about caring for animals and have pet care experience through helping friends and family. I find genuine excitement in meeting new pets and being able to help others. Although I do not have a dog of my own, I do have a bunny that I have taken care of for the past 9 years and he means the world to me, so I have a great understanding of how these fur babies are much more than just pets. I am currently working part-time and do school online, so I have a very flexible schedule. I thrive in settings that may require adapting, and I am the kind of person to focus on my task at hand. I have relatively free mornings, where I enjoy being the most productive, but most importantly I am always willing to accommodate other people’s schedule when possible! When I care for pets, the most important factors to me are the pet’s safety and the owner’s boundaries. I find it very important that the pet is visibly content and safe, and if any issues were to occur, I understand the boundaries as a sitter. I care for and respect all pets the way I would hope a sitter would treat and respect my pet and routines.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Brantford
We feel so fortunate to have found such a wonderful person to care for our dogs! We have been working with Kristina for about a year now. She is incredibly kind, compassionate, trustworthy, and attentive. Whether she's staying in our home for 24-hour care or taking the dogs for walks, we always have complete peace of mind knowing they're in such good hands. What really sets her apart is her attention to detail. She takes the time to get to know each dog's unique personality, notices subtle changes in their behaviour, and genuinely cares about their well-being. Her natural nurturing personality really shines through, and I think her experience working with children speaks volumes about her patience, kindness, and compassion. It's not easy trusting someone with your home and with your pets, but she has earned our trust completely. We are so grateful for the love and care she provides and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for someone truly special to care for their animals!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Brantford is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $49 per walk. On Rover, walkers 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 1,672 sitters on Rover for Dog Walking in Brantford. About 85% of Brantford 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 Brantford. 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 bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Brantford after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the 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 Brantford 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.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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 Brantford 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!
