My availability is in my calender. I have a pretty casual schedule, but you can always message me and ask if another day works. I can do multiple visits a day, from a quick pee break and play, or a walk on there favorite route. I have a big heart. I'll always treat your dog with the utmost care, and I dont mind some additional time spent for a good pet and cuddle, and some endless treats.
About: I lived with a friend on a hobby farm. She showed me the ropes. I learned how to take care of all animals big and small. I am willing and able to assist in medicine administration. I have tons of free time that I’d love to dedicate to ensuring your furry friend has their needs through the day and even when you’re on vacation I work full time in the city and I hardly ever leave the province and can dedicate as much time needed with your fur babies as you need! I’m very good with early mornings and late night visits. I won’t have pets in my home as I have a cat myself, but I will ensure I know where all food, treats, toys and everything else they require before you leave. I will ask for an emergency response plan in the event I need to get ahold of you asap. I also have my own reliable transportation and will ask for the vet you use in dire emergencies. I will also supervise play time as I know how quick everything can go sideways. I also am very clean, if there’s a mess from your pet, it’ll be cleaned. And I have no problem cleaning litter boxes as well.
About: I’ve had dogs since I can remember and have been around all breeds and sizes. I’ve also been around cats. Just looking to help give your pet some extra love and squeeze in some furry cuddles while trying to help you out I work approx 12 days a month an another job and I’m looking for something to fill in the time while I’m home. I’m a huge animal lover so I think this is a perfect fit In my clients home I offer dog walks, feedings, some medical care, brushing and just overall cuddles throughout the time I spend with your pet
About: I have owned and cared for dogs and cats in my life for over 50 years and have an amazing ability for having them relate to me. I am only working a full day on Friday's and my husband works out of a home office so I am very flexible regarding availability. I live on an acreage with a fenced yard and two friendly Maltese dogs and a dog friendly cat named Nigel. Dogs names are Maggie and Monty.
About: We welcome only one family’s dog(s) at a time, so your pup enjoys a calm, personalized stay with our family in a peaceful home setting. My retired parents love having dogs around and are home throughout the day, so your dog has plenty of company, care, and attention. Your pup is rarely left alone. We know every dog is different, so we take the time to learn their routine, personality, and what helps them feel comfortable. Our goal is for your dog to feel safe, relaxed and at home while you’re away. I know leaving your dog with someone new can be nerve wracking. I’m always happy to do a meet & greet before the first stay. You’ll also receive regular photo and video updates, so you can relax knowing your dog is happy, comfortable, and well cared for. My parents are both retired and genuinely love having dogs around the house. Between my parents and me, there’s almost always someone home, so your dog will have plenty of company throughout the day. We also only take a small number of dogs at a time because we want each one to get plenty of attention and feel comfortable here, not just be one of many. We have a large, fully fenced yard where dogs can safely run and play, along with plenty of cozy spots inside. We also back onto a park, so walks are easy and there’s always something new to explore.
About: I currently have two families I pet sit for but would like to expand whether it’s once a year or occasional. They each of two dogs and cats including a bengal. Just starting out as an esthetician I have a lot of availability and found passion in taking care of animals aswell I can accommodate to your pets routines and needs and can’t wait to meet new pups and kittys! I only have handful of clients from previous dog sitting so my availability is open I also don’t mind taking a drive if it’s far from me! I can accommodate to your animals needs wether if your cats personality is more shy or affectionate I will offer lots of cuddles or space to play same with dogs! With some hyper play and cuddles aswell I understand high energy dogs too my family has a German shepherd!
About: I have a very high tolerance and patience with all sizes and breeds. I am okay with cats as well. I’ve trained a couple of my friends animals a few times. And I love just getting out for exercise so would love to look after your fur companion to give him/her some exercise as well :) I was the kid who took in all the animals who were homeless. I am very energetic as well so if you have a very high energy dog don’t you worry!! I’m a student who is looking to get out more, make a bit of pocket money, and have a little fur companion to hang out with during the day. I can't wait to meet your fur babies and companions. I have a little one on daycare during the day. So week days between 9-4pm are ideal, but If you need someone to walk or check in just give me a few hours notice and I can arrange a babysitter. I have a 20 month old so if I need to bring my girl dogs must be good with kids. I can also arrange babysitter as well. If I’m walking your pup I have had clients leave their treats and leash in the area that is visible but it is whatever you are comfortable with, I am very flexible!
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.
About: I have been caring for dogs since I was a young teenager. Dogs are truly my passion. I have been caring for digs of all ages from neonatal puppies, to senior dogs and am confident I can provide care that is just like family to your dog. I have pets of my own who get daily care (walks, play time, training time) daily. I am excited for the opportunity to care for other dogs too! In my home my pets are on a daily routine, we get up in the morning to potty and play, then relax for a bit before we go out on a walk. We train throughout the day in small sessions. Routine is the best for any dog.
About: I currently work from home in marketing from Calgary and I'm looking for some extra work that aligns with my passion for animals. I have experience taking care of animals (meal prep, grooming, feeding, playing etc.). I would love to meet your furry friends 😊 When I come to your house I will dedicate my time to providing lots of nourishment and entertainment for your pet. There's nothing I love more than cats and dogs, animals make me happy. Looking forward to meeting you and your pets. I work from home so there is alot of flexibility for time of day. I can also take last minute requests. I can be available on weekends as well. I live with an Australian Shepherd and take him for walks multiple times per day. I have experience feeding, cleaning and playing with dogs and cats.
About: I’ve had 5 dogs in my household since I was born. I trained 2 out of the five as I got older. I have pet sitted before and I have an absolute love for dogs. Currently we have adopted a puppy from fostering, we absolutely love her! We don’t know the breed or how big she will get but she’s been an absolute delight in our household! I always enjoy a good walk myself or a visit to a family friendly park with other dogs. Currently working on dog parks with my own puppy at home! Over the summer months would like to walk more dogs as my job is currently slow. I love the outdoors so I definitely enjoy taking my puppy for walks and to parks with nice scenic views. We enjoy visiting other dogs for play time for socialization! I enjoy playing with toys with our puppy, chasing a ball outside or teaching her how to be without a leash. We always use treats to learn new skills!
About: With 12+ years of personal and professional pet care experience—and a lifetime of growing up around and loving animals—I prioritize making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it’s sticking to their routine, giving them extra attention, making sure they feel secure while you're away, or slipping medication into their food, I care for every pet as if they were my own. With a flexible schedule, I can be there whenever your pet needs me. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or overnight stays, I’m available to provide consistent, attentive care that fits their routine and keeps them happy while you're away. I prioritize keeping pets safe, happy, and comfortable in their own home by following their usual routine, giving them plenty of attention, and ensuring their environment stays secure. Whether it’s feeding, playtime, walks, or medication, I make sure they’re well cared for while keeping the home clean and secure. My goal is to make your pet feel at ease and give you peace of mind while you're away.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Carstairs is $19 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $27 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 1,448 sitters on Rover for Dog Walking in Carstairs. About 83% of Carstairs 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 Carstairs. 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 Carstairs 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 Carstairs 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 Carstairs 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!
