About: I have taken care of dogs and cats of all kinds ever since I was a child. I have always had a passion for animals and have never lived in a home without them. Friends, families, neighbours, and colleagues have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe, and brush their furry loved ones. I have two dogs (Buddo and Eevee) who are trained off leash and on leash; they are incredibly friendly and love to play with other dogs. I am a teacher with full-time availability for doggy day care, walks, or checking in on your furry loved ones in the summer! Once the school year starts up, I am only available on weekends. When caring at my own home: I have two friendly dogs of my own, with a very large backyard for play time. The yard is split into two separately fenced areas, which allows for some quiet time from my own dogs if necessary. When caring in your home: I am comfortable crating your furry friend, administering medication, and following special feeding instructions if necessary. I send regular photo updates, along with feeding/water updates to ensure you know that your loved ones are safe and cared for.
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: Hello! My name is Luisa, and my pets are my whole world. I promise to take care of your babies as if they were my own. I am especially passionate about working with animals who may be fearful or have special needs. I have previously completed a two-year apprenticeship under a force-free dog trainer in Calgary, and although I am not currently working as a trainer due to completing my master's, what I learned informs all my interactions with animals. Through fostering and our own pets, I have experience administering medications to a wide range of animals (dogs, cats, bearded dragons, geckos, hedgehogs). At home, my husband and I have two dogs, a cat, and a multitude of reptiles and exotics. We also foster from time to time, which has given us experience with so many other species and personalities. Please let me know if you have any questions, I'd love to answer them. I am in Red Deer for a practicum placement Monday-Wednesday, and in Calgary the remainder of the week. I can be somewhat flexible with this, so please feel free to message me! My pets would describe me as a helicopter mom, I would describe me as attentive! When I travel, our pet-sitter gets a multi-page document on everyone's needs, so I am not intimidated to receive the same; this just means I can adjust my routine to your pet(s)'...it is their home after all!
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.
“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: Have done a lot of fostering for an animal rescue so comfortable with a large variety of breeds. We enjoy getting out so your dogs won’t be bored. I work in a school so I am off on weekends, all major holidays and all summer. But love daily walks and my schedule is very accommodating. I have a fenced yard with two friendly dogs. We do have cats in the home but they don’t care about other pets. Non smoking home.

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.

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've fostered dogs, took care of neighbors animals and done dog walking. I have my own yellow lab who is my emotional support girl! I love puppies and senior dogs and all ages in between. I have lots of time for lunch walks, after work walks or play and can most definitely do weekends and have your fur baby stay with me too I take my dog for 3 to 4 walks a day so I can do the same for yours. We go to the river and throw the ball or she swims a bit.
“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🤗💛”
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 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.).

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.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of every kind since I was very young. Neighbours, friends and even family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. I love sitting dogs and cats, I am a animal lover and thrive spending time with them! I help out at a farm outside of Airdrie that has lots of barn cats, and I help socialize, play and feed them on a weekly basis. I am currently working full time during the week, and make time when I can whether it’s early morning, evenings or weekends I can come by and check on your pet :) I make sure that whichever animal I take care for get sufficient amount of exercise and care they need throughout the day/ evening. If medications are needed, I make sure to administer that at the time they are normally scheduled for.
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.

The average cost for Dog Walking in Carstairs on Rover is $19.43 per walk (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

There are 1,425 sitters on Rover for Dog Walking in Carstairs. About 84% 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.
