“Lizzie loves Connor! He comes in quietly, stays calm and steady, and helps keep her relaxed so she doesn’t get overexcited. Lizzie was just a few weeks post-surgery, and Connor took wonderful care of her — he was gentle, attentive, and followed all of our instructions perfectly. We’re so grateful for him!”
About: I have had pets basically my whole life, from dogs to cats to bunnies! I had a Husky for 10 years, who recently passed, so I’m quite comfortable with more stubborn dogs! I absolutely love walking and hiking, and I miss doing it with a dog! I currently have 2 bunnies, so I’m absolutely comfortable if you need a bunny sitter as well. I am the type of person to notice the pet before the person, as I always want to give a little scrub and say hello! My schedule is pretty flexible, and I’m usually able to accommodate most days as I work for myself a couple days a week. Hoping to make your pet my new bestie! I’m quite flexible in my schedule, and I tend to work several times a day so I’d love to have a companion to walk with! I’m happy to follow the routine you have for your pets in their home! I love lots of pets and sitting outside, walking and playing, or cuddling up on the couch with them! I’m happy to do any of the schedule you need!
About: I have 5+ years of hands on pet care experience and treat every dog like they were my own. I prioritize structure, consistency, and calm care, and I pay close attention to each dog’s needs, especially when they’re settling in. I love keeping dogs’ minds sharp with fun trick training and scent games, in addition to running around and playing outside. My beagle, Mylo, is very warm and friendly. If your dog is comfortable, Mylo will happily play and interact with them, and if they prefer to lounge, we’ll relax together. Your dog will have plenty of downtime, and all interactions are closely monitored so they feel safe and comfortable. They will never be left alone, and I’ll proactively communicate with you throughout their stay. I work from home, so I can give dogs plenty of attention. I take two long walks each day in the morning and evening, and have time during the day for short walks, play, and potty breaks. I provide a safe, loving environment with plenty of attention, structured walks, rest, and lots of in house play. While my yard is unfenced, I use a long leash with a stake so dogs can safely enjoy some backyard play if they like. My schedule is flexible, so I can adapt to each pet’s needs. I follow the same routine and instructions the owner provides, ensuring their pet’s comfort, exercise, meals, and supervision are consistent with their usual routine.
About: I have had pets the majority of my life! Dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, you name it! I have always been an animal lover, I will try to pet anything! I treat every animal with kindness I do work full time, however I have a lot of time off during the week. My schedule is 12 hour shifts so it gives me time off on days most people have to work. I am currently saving for a volunteer medical trip to Duquesa in January 2027 with Team Broken Earth, every booking is currently going towards this amazing opportunity! I approach all animals calmly and always tell them how good they are and how loved they are. They are definitely part of the family!
About: **Returning Rover Petsitter/Dog Walker** What sets me apart is my calm, consistent, and compassionate approach to every pet I care for. I have hands-on experience walking large breeds, walking two dogs at once, and providing gentle care for senior pets—including dogs with vision impairment who need extra patience and attention. I also understand how to support dogs with separation anxiety, offering them comfort and stability while their owners are away. Whether it’s a high-energy pup who needs a full 1-hour walk or a senior dog who requires a slower pace, I tailor my care to fit each dog’s needs. I’m confident, dependable, and truly love spending time with animals. Your pets will feel safe, loved, and well cared for with me! I work available Sunday to Tuesday , and so I have plenty of time to care for your furry babies and provide them the attention and care they absolutely deserve. Do contact me to get more details. I will respond quickly and let you know about my availability after we discuss more about it. Thankyou!
“Emma is great with our puppy! We come home to a happy, well-exercised (mentally and physically) pup at the end of our days and couldn’t be happier. Emma is great with communication and sends me great photos which really make my day! Our pups love her, and we love the peace of mind her visits provide.”
“We just had our first meeting with Stephen. He was incredibly patient, gentle, and kind with our high-anxiety dog. Stephen didn’t rush anything and took the time to let her warm up at her own pace, which made a huge difference. His calm energy and understanding approach helped her feel safe and comfortable much faster than we expected. We’re so impressed with how well they Stephen the introduction, and we already feel confident trusting him with her. Highly recommend to anyone with a nervous or sensitive pup!”

About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was 6 years old , I remember how scared I was when I met my first dog , his name was sultan and honestly he was the one who took care of me and after that my love for them just expanded and still every time I see a dog I fall in love them . I work part time so so you can leave your loved one with me at nights or afternoons and for mornings we can figure something out . Note - there will be an additional charge depending on the distance I have to travel to get to your house.(estimate $6-8 for short distances) I work part time , so I am mostly home I usually take a one dog at a time unless your pet is comfortable with other pets. Before we book I prefer doing a meet and greet where we can talk and arrange something that meets your needs. I currently don’t have any pets of my own here , but I have an immense love for animals especially dogs , I live in a townhouse with a back yard where we can play and we can visit the nearby parks or trails if that’s what you want for your loved one .
“If you're looking for someone who is not only trustworthy but also a true dog lover, I highly recommend Alex. She’s reliable and professional, which has been a huge relief for me as a pet owner. Whether it’s rain or shine, I can always count on her to show up on time, and she never rushes through the walks. She tailors each outing based on my dog's energy level, and I can tell he gets a great workout while also having fun. She always provides updates and photos after each walk. We feel so lucky to have found her!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Cambridge
Sierra showed up right on time and gave Lola a great walk each day that we were gone. It was so reassuring to know she was getting what she needed while we were on vacation. I highly recommend Sierra as both a dog walker and a dog sitter. She’s been great for Lola.
We had such a great experience with Samantha! She was absolutely amazing with our 5.5-month-old American Bully, Ghost, who definitely has a lot of puppy energy and personality. She made us feel completely at ease and kept us updated with texts and pictures, which we really appreciated. It was clear that Ghost was comfortable with her and being well cared for, and that gave us so much peace of mind. We’re really happy we found Samantha and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their pup. We’ll definitely be booking with her again! ❤️🐾
This was our first time using Rover for our dog Freddie! Kendra had amazing reviews which drew us to her. We met up with her prior to booking and Freddie loved her! Kendra has been very prompt with replies and sent updates from her walks. We look forward to having her walk Freddie on a regular basis.
I have two skeptical miniature Australian shepherds that Adam very quickly won over on their walks. He is reliable and very good with dogs. He clearly loves them and enjoys his work with them. I would recommend Adam to anyone looking for a good dog walker! I trust him with my dogs and coming and going from my home.

The average cost for Dog Walking in Cambridge on Rover is $19.98 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 2,130 sitters on Rover for Dog Walking in Cambridge. About 87% of Cambridge 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 Cambridge. 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 Cambridge.
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 Cambridge 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 Cambridge 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:
- 85% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
