“David and Candice are really accommodating with my last minute dog walking needs, makes it very helpful when my schedule is hectic and everchanging. Mo is always taken great care of!”
About: I recently moved to Alberta from Victoria, BC, where I worked as a veterinary assistant at a clinic for over a year and did shifts at the Victoria Humane Society, including its spay/neuter clinic. I worked with dogs of all sizes and temperaments every day, including anxious and reactive dogs, seniors, puppies, and dogs recovering from surgery. I'm comfortable giving oral medications, handling dogs safely and calmly, and spotting early signs of illness, pain or stress. I'm starting the Veterinary Technology program at Olds College in January, and I'll care for your dog with the same patience and attention I gave every patient at the clinic. I have a flexible schedule right now and can offer daytime, evening and weekend visits. Once my Veterinary Technology program starts in January, I'll be most available on evenings and weekends. I keep my Rover calendar up to date, so what you see there is accurate. Your pet's safety comes first. I follow your routine exactly: same feeding times, same portions, same rules. I keep doors and windows secure, I store food and meds out of reach, and I watch for anything unusual, like changes in appetite, litter box or bathroom habits, or energy level. Because I've worked in a vet clinic, I know the early signs of stress or illness. If anything looks off, I'll contact you right away, and your vet if needed. You'll get photo updates every visit.
About: Looking for a safe, calm and personal alternative to a busy doggy daycare or boarding? I offer one-on-one care for one dog at a time, so your best friend gets my full attention and doesn’t have to share their space with other dogs. I’m accepting only small breeds. I have 20 years experience running my own successful client-based business, with more than 100 regular clients. My clients valued my service so much that many booked a year in advance. I bring that same level of care , reliability and personal attention to looking after your dog. I am now retired so have plenty of time to care for dogs in my home. I am home most of the time so your dog will not be left alone much. I can provide home visits as well. Lots of care and attention will be provided for your dog. Long walks multiple times during the day.
“Ofer has walked our pup a few times in the last week and I couldn't recommend him more! Always responsive and accommodating and our dog loves him. He sends lots of cute photos too :)”
About: I live an active, mountain lifestyle. Pet lover and parent for many years. 9 year old large dog, 2 year old medium dog and 4 year old cat in my home. Love dog walks and cat cuddles. I’m fairly flexible as I’m self-employed and work between my home and studio in town. Active, mellow dogs and cats are a more suitable fit for longer days and overnight stays in my home. I do not have a fenced yard so we enjoy getting out for walks several times a day. We especially love the off-leash dog park at Quarry Lake.
“I booked Sara's services for a second week in a row, she is absolutely wonderful and am grateful for her spending her time coming out walking our pup. She is very reliable and love getting updates on how the visit went. Thank you again Sara!”
About: I have always had a special connection to animals. I have lots of experience with large to small dogs. I love going on multiple walks with the pups as well as taking them on hikes out to the mountains (if that is something you wish). I have no problem taking them to a dog park as I have an suv. I will send updates on your animals with pictures and videos. I myself have a cat so I have a lot of experience with felines as well. You can count on me to give your fur babes the best love,attention, cuddles and care. If you would like me to stay at your home overnight I will treat it as my own and make sure to leave it in pristine condition. I look forwards to meeting you and making new furry friends.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Canmore
Came to Canmore for some family time and exploring so I brought my dog along. Some days we had hikes to go and found Ofer to fulfill some of the times Harley would be alone at the airbnb and what a great finding. Ofer was very punctual, took her into different routes and treated Harley super well. At the end, always left a review of their walk with some GREAT quality pictures. Thank you so much for taking such good care of Harley, Ofer. Would recommend 1000 times.
Marketa and her boyfriend were absolutely perfect for looking after our puppy while we were out at a few events. She’s a great communicator before, during, and after! Marketa came to come meet me and the puppy and understand how to get into the apartment. Highly recommend!!!
Marie was great! She was quick to respond and sent us pictures and updates of our dog throughout the night. It was our first time using Rover, so we were a little nervous, but Marie made us feel completely at ease. Wally was happy and well cared for, and I wouldn't hesitate to ask Marie to dogsit again!
Kayla was able to accomodate a last minute request to take Oslo on a long morning walk. She was really flexible and easy to communicate with. Oslo took to Kayla instantly and she was really patient with his rambunctious teenage energy. He had a great walk and came back happy and ready for a nap.
Very patient with our dog. Second time for our dog walking with someone she hadn't met before. She was reluctant at first but Caitlyn was able to get her to accept a new person. Caitlyn is very responsive and good with communication. She was able to send me a clip of my dog running when they were out for a walk. I would recommend Caitlyn to others looking for pet care without hesitation.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Canmore is $26 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $43 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 80 sitters on Rover for Dog Walking in Canmore. About 90% of Canmore 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 Canmore. 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 Canmore 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 Canmore 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 Canmore 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!
