“Erica has walked both my previous dog and current dog. She has always been accommodating, kind and understanding, both to you and your furry companion. I look forward to her continued walks with Sora as she has been working on her behavior with me indirectly during the walks.”
“Dervla was great with my dog! She kept me updated with pictures and communicated how things were going so I didn't have to worry while I was away. I would definitely trust her to walk Sil again!”
About: I am a lifelong animal lover and seasoned pet owner with years of experience caring for dogs, cats, birds, hamsters and everything in between. I know firsthand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your beloved pets and your home. That’s why I bring not just genuine care, but also professionalism, clear communication, and reliability to every visit. Whether you're heading out for a weekend or an extended trip, you can count on me to keep your pets happy, healthy, and loved—just like you would. I specialize in both cuddly couch companions and more high-energy or special-needs pets, and I’m comfortable with everything from daily walks to medication administration and stall mucking. Your peace of mind is my top priority. I provide detailed updates, photos, and a calming presence so you can travel stress-free knowing everything is in good hands. I am a working professional with a flexible schedule. House visits and walks will be part of my routine. I will work from home during day-care days My preference is to care for your pets in your home. This gives them a greater sense of security while you are away. They will receive love and exercise during my visits. I live on a large 4 acre property. Long walks in private trails behind my house for day-care days.
“Lena has been amazing with my crazy pup! She’s very responsive and you can tell she loves animals and cares for my dog like it was her own! She replies promptly and also is very reliable! She is great at handling the many adventures my dog takes her through! Working shift work makes me heavily rely and worry about my dog however i haven’t had a worry about my dog because i know he is getting good care on his daily walks !”
“Lizzie has been amazing, I really appreciate here flexibility with my shifts and good communication. Based on Eskel's (dog) photos and his energy when I got back, he had a fantastic time!”
“Emily and her husband Jake were amazing! We were visiting Campbell River from Seattle, WA and took a tour for the day. She took care of our pup all day and eased a lot of our worries and concerns about leaving him. This is our first time using rover and we were so happy with the experience. Thank you so much Emily!”
“Bailey was absolutely fantastic with my black lab and my moms 2 year old mix! I last minute had to dog sit for my mom and being 8months pregnant, needed a hand giving her young dog the exercise she needs. Axel my lab was able to tag along and they came back from their walks super happy, tired, and relaxed. Bailey was very professional and you could tell loved dogs! Thank you Bailey, we will be using you again in the near future!”
About: With 15 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, I have a genuine love for animals and understand just how much they mean to their families. I believe every pet deserves patience, kindness, and plenty of love and attention. Whether your furry friend loves playtime, cuddles, walks, or simply having someone nearby to keep them company, I always do my best to make them feel happy, safe, and comfortable. I treat every pet as if they were my own, because I know they’re not just pets, they’re family! ❤️🐾 Working from home allows me to be fully present for pets’ needs throughout the day - feeding, walks, playtime, and comfort whenever they need it! I prefer house sitting at the client’s home so pets remain comfortable in their own environment. Keeping their normal routine, sleeping spots, and feeding schedule reduces stress. I also send regular photo updates so owners always have peace of mind!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Campbell River is $28 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $44 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 104 sitters on Rover for Dog Walking in Campbell River. About 82% of Campbell River 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 Campbell River. 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 Campbell River 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 Campbell River 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 Campbell River 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!
