About: Hello dog lovers! Growing up with dogs my whole life gave me tons of experience in regards of caring for dogs as well as playing with them. I also am the proud mom of a German Shorthaired Pointer who needs lots of play time and would love to become friend with your dog if this is the kind of service you would be looking for! I am a flight attendant with a very flexible schedule so I can accomodate to come in your house when you need me to as well. What ever special care your pet needs, I am confident I can give them the attention they need, in the environment of your preferences. I am excited to meet you and your furry friend! I go on a walk of minimum an hour everyday with my dog Matcha so getting some exercise done is no problem! Depending on the energy levels and the weather, I typically go in the mornings but sometimes go for a second outing in the afternoon/evening. I have a fenced yard with easy access from a doggy door that can also be closed as well as two crates indoors if needed. I have a designated place for potty in the backyard and feel very confident to keep any dog safe even out on a walk!
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 from home, starting up my own business but I have free availability pretty much all day. I hardly ever leave the province and can dedicate as much time needed with your fur babies as you need! 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 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: Caring for dogs has been a natural part of my life for years, and I’ve consistently been the go person for friends and family who need reliable, attentive care. What sets me apart is my structured, detailed oriented approach. I’m confident with playful puppies who needs consistency and basic reinforcement, as well as senior dogs who require patience, medication reminders, and a gentler pace. With a professional background rooted in responsibility and communication, I provide dependable care, clear updates, and a calm environment so both pets and owners feel completely at ease. I have open and flexible availability, which lets me dedicate my days to caring for pets with attention, consistency, and love. I enjoy providing walks, playtime, feeding, gentle supervision and I always keep owners updated so they feel confident their pets are happy and safe. Whether it’s a last minute request, a reoccurring schedule, or longer stays, I am able to provide reliable, attentive care tailored to each dog’s needs. My home is safe, welcoming, and designed to keep pets comfortable and happy. I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can play safely and 2 friendly dogs to provide companionship. Inside, I provide cozy spaces and can crate dogs when needed for rest or security. I supervise playtime closely, maintain consistent routines, and ensure pets have access to fresh water, exercise and attention throughout the day. I prioritize a calm, structured, and loving environment so both pets and owners feel completely at ease.
“Vahista was awesome with our two big girls who are not the easiest to handle! My girls love her and they are well taken care of on their weekend walks!! Can’t wait to keep this relationship going with the girls and Vahista🤗💛”

“Rachel and Felix are absolutely amazing dog walkers! They took care of Blake with so much love and attention — beyond anything we could have imagined. Blake came home happy, tired, and clearly had an incredible time with them. We couldn’t be more grateful and highly recommend them to anyone looking for truly wonderful care for their dog!”

“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 had pets since I was young, and I have always been responsible for taking care of those animals, whether it’s walking them, cleaning up after them, bathing them, training them, and overall just making sure the animals are living in a very high-quality environment. I have both a cat and a dogs. My dog is a bit larger, so I am knowledgeable on how to properly take care of a larger dog. I have also taken care of small dogs that my family and friends have had. Overall, I find I get along great with any animal! Respecting their boundaries is very important to me! I just finished my first year of university and I am working over the summer! I work most days but with a flexible schedule that allows me to check on your pets throughout the day! In my home my dog is outside and inside, but our cat stays inside. I value their safety, and although my dog is outside sometimes, I check on them frequently and give them constant attention to ensure that they are okay. In a clients home, I will follow their guidelines on whether or not the pets are indoors or outdoors, and I will give frequent attention to maintain their safety and well-being.

Fig looked forward to her walk everyday with Brianna and she gave us the best updates throughout the week. Absolutely recommend her for anything, and if we ever need her services again, we absolutely will be reaching out.”

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 work throughout the week from 9-2pm and sometimes off earlier it depends! I also have a vehicle to commute to your pet. Weekends are open and evenings! 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!
“Lyndsie was available on very short notice and was familiar with the area where my dogs love to walk. She sent a video of them playing in the river. My dogs came home happy and tired! I recommend her to anyone with high energy dogs!”

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.
“Gabriella saved my day! I needed a last minute walk done and she accepted. Gunner was very happy and content when I got home and Gabrielle was wonderful, sending pictures and great communication.”

About: Ever since I was a baby I’ve spent my life around animals from small to large, domestic to farm. I have always had a deep compassion for animals. As a child I always wanted to be around and with animals wanting to grow up working with them in any way. I have 5 years of experience working on a dairy farm and have worked at a doggy daycare. In 2023 I got my first puppy as an adult. Since then I have rescued 1, and had 2 rehomed to me as well. In my free time a few days a week I volunteer at the CHS taking dogs out for the day giving them a break from the shelter, showing them what everyday life looks like. Animals are already a huge part of my everyday life, so dog walking fits very naturally into my routine. I have a flexible schedule with availability every other week from 4:30pm–10:00pm, and on alternating weeks from 7:00am–10:00pm. I enjoy getting out for walks, spending time with dogs, and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owners are away or busy. I always try to make pets feel as comfortable and relaxed as possible by sticking to their normal routines, giving them lots of attention, and making sure they feel safe and cared for while their owners are away. I’m experienced with dogs of different sizes and personalities, and I understand how important trust, patience, and consistency are when caring for someone else’s pet.
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: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up with a poodle and now share my life with my beautiful Brittany Spaniel, so I truly understand how much our dogs mean to us—they’re family. I treat every dog in my care like my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, or just some extra cuddles, I pay close attention to their personality and needs so they have a happy, stress-free experience. Being a true dog person means I know how important trust is, and my goal is always to care for your dog as if they were my own. At the moment I have a very flexible schedule while I look for a more permanent job, which makes pet care a great fit for my routine. I’m newly pregnant and already spend a lot of my time with my own dog, so caring for other dogs throughout the day feels very natural to me. Because I have my own Brittany Spaniel, I already have a daily routine of walks, feeding times, and making sure dogs get plenty of attention and exercise. I just need to make sure I’m home in the evenings for my dog’s dinner, but I’m very open to working out schedules that work well for everyone. I love the idea of spending my days with dogs and making sure they feel cared for, happy, and safe. At the moment I’m offering pet care in clients’ homes, as I’m not able to host other animals in my home right now. I’m happy to come to your home to care for your pet so they can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. When I care for pets, I focus on making sure they feel safe, loved, and well looked after. This includes walks, playtime, enrichment, feeding, and of course lots of cuddles and attention. I also make sure to follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel relaxed while you’re away. My goal is always to treat your pet like family and give them the same love and care I give my own dog. P.s will be moving soon so having dogs in my house will change.
About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my genuine love for animals and my firsthand experience as both a pet owner and pet sitter. As a previous pet owner, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, reliable, and caring to look after your pets. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, including feeding, walking, administering basic care, providing companionship, and maintaining their routines to help them feel comfortable while you're away. I treat every pet as if they were my own, taking the time to learn their personality, needs, and preferences. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind knowing their furry family members are happy, safe, and well cared for. My goal is to create a stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine. As a rotational worker, I have two weeks off at a time, which gives me the flexibility and availability to dedicate quality time to caring for pets. During my time off, I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals through dog walking, pet sitting, and drop-in visits. Having been a pet owner myself, I understand the importance of maintaining consistent feeding, exercise, play, and companionship routines to keep pets happy and comfortable. I tailor my care to each pet's needs and the service being provided. For dog walking, I ensure pets get safe exercise, fresh water, and plenty of attention. For drop-in visits, I follow the owner's instructions for feeding, medication (if required), litter box cleaning, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship. For pet sitting in a client's home, I maintain the pet's normal routine as closely as possible to reduce stress, including feeding schedules, walks, exercise, and lots of affection. As a former pet owner and experienced dog and cat sitter, I understand the importance of reliability, patience, and keeping owners updated on their pet's well-being.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Carstairs on Rover is $19.43 per walk (as of July 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 1,465 sitters on Rover for Dog Walking in Carstairs. About 85% 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 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 Carstairs.
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 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.
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 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!
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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.
