âTanya has been a wonderful dog walker to my senior dog! Very good at communicating, kind natured and you can tell she really loves dogs. Weâre glad we found her! :)â

âAmanda did a great job with our black lab Kiki! She agreed to our request last minute. She sent us videos of them walking which was very appreciated. Amanda was punctual, professional and respectful of Kiki not being the best with other dogs. Kiki went straight to snoozing after her walk! We would be happy to hire Amanda again for another walk in the future! Thank you!â

âEmma and partner are just lovely people. Both are very responsive, accommodating, and descriptive in their details on my girlsâ rover cards! It has been just AMAZING to have a walker/sitter that is respectful, responsive, and pleasant to interact with AND lives close by. They are both very trustworthy, reliable, and work well with my very spoiled girls. Highly recommend.â

âDmytro was great! He arrived early and took the time to get to know bear. He took my appointment last minute and even did an hour with bear when it was raining and bad weather ! Would totally recommendâ

âShe is so good. Sheâs very easy going and willing to accommodate to your schedule. Iâm happy with her services. I will for sure book with her again if I need. 100% recommend.â

About: I worked for about 2 years in a dog daycare, so Iâm used to being around different types of dogs and handling them safely in busy environments. I also helped with dog rescues back in Colombia, where I fostered dogs and supported organizations that care for stray animals. That experience taught me a lot about patience and understanding dogs with different personalities. I really just love being around animals and making sure they feel safe and cared for Right now I have a flexible schedule, so Iâm available most days for walks and drop-in visits. Iâm reliable and can adapt to your petâs routine, and Iâd love to make caring for dogs part of my daily life. I currently live in a rental where pets arenât allowed, so I donât offer care in my home. However, Iâm happy to provide dog walking and drop-in visits in your home.
âJudy was exceptional with our puppy, Shadow! She came right on time and gave him all the care and energy burn he needed. She also used some of her own time to show love to our other dog too, as well as cleaned our house pee pads when needed. It was our first time booking on rover and she definitely exceeded expectations. We will be booking with Judy moving forward!!â

âAlina is very professional, and took great care of my dog Jack. She walked, fed, gave him his daily medication, and made sure his cone was put back on afterwards. Can't thank her enough, and would definitely recommend her to others.â

âJulie is absolutely fabulous!! Sheâs been walking our dog Pepper for a month now, sheâs very dependable and great with animals. Sheâs been able to calm our crazy Aussie Doodle and we will definitely be calling on Julie more for walks and house sitting for our full fury family.â

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Burnaby
Emily was absolutely amazing! She was kind, professional, and clearly loves dogs. I felt completely comfortable leaving my dog in her care, and it was obvious that my dog had a wonderful time. Emily kept me updated and treated my dog like her own. I highly recommend her dog walking service to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring. Thank you so much, Emily!

I had a wonderful experience with Joey! She walked my dog and went above and beyond my expectations. She genuinely cares about animals and treats them with kindness and patience. My dog came home happy, relaxed, and well exercised, which gave me so much peace of mind. Joey was punctual, reliable, and made sure my dog was safe and comfortable during the walk. She also kept me updated, which I really appreciated. Itâs not always easy to find someone you can completely trust with your pet, but Joey is definitely someone I would trust again without hesitation. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, caring, and responsible dog walker.

Sabrina and Marcus did an outstanding job taking care of our pup Nala. They are incredibly patient and attentive, making sure Nala felt comfortable and happy throughout. Communication was excellent from start to finish, keeping me informed and reassured. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and caring dog sitters!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Burnaby on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 4,865 sitters on Rover for Dog Walking in Burnaby. About 85% of Burnaby sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether youâre 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 petâs 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 Burnaby. 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 dogâs 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 Burnaby.
Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dogâs walk begins.
While Rover doesnât 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 Burnaby with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days youâd 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 Roverâs 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 Burnaby 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:
- 86% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
