“We’ve used Jill a few times now to walk our dog. She always follows the instructions, has great communication and is flexible with last minute requests. She’s great with our dog and we wouldn’t hesitate to use her again.”
“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!”
“Ofer kindly and promptly accepted our last minute request for dog walking. My pup Miel was taken care of and a happy pup. I would recommend Ofer for your dog walking needs.”
“Élise was more than happy to accommodate our last minute request and was great in her communication leading up to, during and after the walk. She made sure Kygo was well walked and settled back in after. Thank you Élise!”
“Second time Ellie has taken our little guy on his morning walk. He already loves Ellie and has settled right in with her. We are impressed that she does the full two hour walk, is punctual and keeps us up to date. We picked these guys as they seemed to really want to know about Rocky to make sure they felt they could keep him safe (and happy). These guys are just perfect!”
“Evelyn was so accommodating when I needed a last minute walk for my pup, Hershey. He had an amazing adventure in Canmore with her! I will definitely be booking again next time I’m in the mountains :)”
About: Hey! I’m Sarah and I am arguably the world’s biggest dog lover! I’ve grown up with dogs, and really really missed having them around when I moved to Canada from the UK 5 years ago. Because of that, I’ve been volunteering with a local, foster-based dog rescue for the past 3 years…which of course led to me adopting my own precious pup from them! I am experienced with a huge range of dog breeds, sizes and temperaments and have been fortunate enough to receive extensive behavioural and safety training whilst working with the rescue. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend soon! I currently work very flexible hours so I can be available as often as required to help you out with your pups scheduling needs. Walks, drop-in visits or home stays - you name it and I can make it work for you! My pet friendly home has a wonderful, resident pup to keep your four-legged friend company. We’re comfortable if you’re comfortable - crate or no crate, on leash walks or dog parks, it’s totally up to you!
About: As lifelong dog lovers, we are excited to provide a safe, caring, and welcoming home environment for your pets while you are away. Pet care allows us to combine something we genuinely enjoy with the opportunity to save for future family travel adventures. Our household currently includes our 17-year-old daughter, who shares our love of animals and assists with pet care responsibilities. As my husband works away for extended periods, my daughter and I are the primary caregivers for the dogs staying in our home, ensuring they receive consistent attention, exercise, companionship, and supervision. We have experience caring for a wide variety of breeds and sizes, from small companion breeds such as Pugs to giant breeds such as St. Bernards. Our family owned a Black Lab/Golden Retriever cross for nine years, and we currently share our home with a medium-sized mixed breed dog and an indoor cat. Our home setup allows us to comfortably separate our cat from visiting dogs if needed. Our experience includes: • Daily dog walking and exercise routines • Caring for puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs • Administering oral medications • Monitoring pets for changes in behaviour, appetite, or activity level • Providing companionship, enrichment, and individualized care based on each dog's needs • Experience handling dogs of various breeds, sizes, and temperaments For the safety and comfort of all pets in our care, we ask that dogs staying in our home are friendly, non-aggressive, and comfortable around other animals and people. We do not have breed preferences and are happy to care for dogs of all sizes and backgrounds, provided they are a good fit for our home environment. We understand that every dog has unique needs and personalities, and we strive to provide the same level of care, attention, and affection that we would want for our own pets. We look forward to welcoming your furry family member into our home and providing them with exceptional care, plenty of exercise, and lots of affection while you are away I currently work full time in Canmore. I have an hour off for lunch that I head home for. My children are home all day during the summer. I have a large fenced yard with a very friendly dog that LOVES to play. Kids and I enjoy being outside as well ether in our green house or just enjoying life in the mountains.
About: I'm sorry, but I can only take small breeds of dogs at the moment. I have extensive experience with all breeds of dogs. I had a boarding at home business for 10 years with over 100 clients who booked a year in advance for my services. I will only take one dog at a time. This is ideal if your dog does not get along with other dogs. Also, will get a lot of one on one time. I can also provide home visit services. 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.

About: I’ve been dog sitting, dog walking, and cat sitting in the Bow Valley for the past 3 years! I grew up with both dogs and cats, so caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I love spending time outdoors and going on adventures! I’m reliable, respectful of your pet’s routine, and always do my best to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m currently working in the service industry! I usually work 4–5 times a week, and my shifts are typically 4–5 hours long. I’m also happy to take some days off work to hang out with your pups if needed. I treat your home with the same care and respect as I would my own, ensuring everything stays safe and comfortable. I can easily follow your pet’s routine, from feeding and walks to playtime and cuddles, so they feel happy and secure while you’re away. I also enjoy providing regular updates, photos, and feedback so you can relax knowing your dog is in good hands!
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.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Canmore
This was our first time using Rover and also otter’s very first time walking with a new person other than family. Dave was very attentive in listening to our wishes with Otter’s on going walking/training. Otter took to Dave immediately which was reassuring. We have already booked a second walk!!
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.
Mary was super flexible as we were in Canmore on vacation and needed our dog walked while we attended a lunch reservation. She was able work work around the reservation and met us at the restaurant. It gave us peace of mind to know Ellie Mae was in good hands while we enjoyed a delicious meal.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Canmore on Rover is $25.53 per walk (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

There are 82 sitters on Rover for Dog Walking in Canmore. About 83% 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 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 Canmore.
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 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.
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 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!
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
