“Jenna started walking our dog Ellie on days I am in the office two weeks ago. Ellie loves her and is excited to see her every time! Jenna keeps great communication with us and is very reliable”

“Courtney wad great with our still in training pup. She gave us feedback after each watch and our pup was excited to see her when Courtney returned for each subsequent walks. We will definitely be availing of Courtney's services in the future!”

“Miranda was fantastic. She was very accommodating with some specific timings I needed my dog walked at and she was always willing to go above and beyond by letting me know when she was with her. She was prompt with communication and made this process easy. I highly recommend her to be involved in your pets lives!”
About: Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I started horseback riding at just four years old, and my passion for animal care has grown into both my career and lifestyle. I currently work as a Veterinary Assistant in the ER and Specialty departments of a veterinary hospital, with a focus on radiology and emergency medicine. I'm also working toward becoming a Registered Veterinary Technician (RVT). My experience extends well beyond dogs and cats. I previously had the incredible, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to work as a marine mammal trainer, caring for and training dolphins, sea lions, walruses, and whales. I also grew up owning and riding horses, competed in Hunter/Jumper, and have experience working with and training young horses. Through my experience with dogs, I've also developed an interest and understanding of canine behaviour, including handling reactive dogs, recognizing stress signals, and working with different temperaments. I believe in patience, consistency, positive reinforcement, and meeting each animal where they're at. Outside of work, I spend much of my time training and adventuring with my working-line German Shepherd, Astra, and exploring with my adventure cat, Artemis. I understand that pets are family, and I take that responsibility seriously. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, nervous, reactive, or has specific care needs, I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for as if they were my own. My availability varies slightly from week to week due to my work schedule at a veterinary ER and specialty hospital. I'm generally most available on weekends, although I occasionally work weekend ER shifts. I typically work Mondays and Tuesdays, but have flexibility throughout the rest of the week depending on my schedule. I'm located in Halifax's South End and am happy to coordinate visits and care in advance. I do my best to be flexible and accommodate your pet's needs! Safety and trust are always my top priorities when caring for someone's pets. Working in emergency and specialty veterinary medicine has taught me how important it is to be observant, prepared, and attentive to even the smallest changes in an animal's behaviour or health. When caring for pets in their own home, I do my best to maintain their normal routines and keep their environment comfortable, clean, and stress-free. I follow all feeding instructions, medication schedules, and care preferences closely, while making sure they receive plenty of attention, enrichment, and affection. I take the time to understand each pet's personality, boundaries, and individual needs. I'm also mindful of things like secure doors and gates, leash safety, food sensitivities, and keeping potentially hazardous items out of reach. As a pet owner myself, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your animals in someone else's care. I want you to feel just as comfortable as your pets do, and I'm always happy to provide updates and photos so you know how they're doing while you're away.
“Was able to help last minute walk for my dog Nova! Very much appreciated, and was nice that she already had a previous stay with my fur babies, and they loved her; She took great care of them and my place! Highly recommend”
About: I had a dog growing up and have looked after my step brothers dog and sisters cat when needed. I love animals and being outside so they always get plenty of exercise! I am currently employed full time but I am flexible throughout the week/weekends for all your furry friend needs! Check my availability for more details :) My apartment currently has no pets allowed but I would love to take your pet on walks or do boarding for you whenever you need :)
“Ilana was great! We were traveling in an RV caravan and she met us all at our campground and she met with all of the dogs and their owners and the following day she showed back up to walk all of our dogs! She did a great job while we were all away on an excursion!”

Gayzelle was amazing with Kobe! She is such a kind-hearted, warm person, and Kobe liked her immediately upon meeting. She was always on time, communicated consistently, and sent great photos during their walks. I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for wonderful care for their dog!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in ColeRidge Estates is $28 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $44 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 474 sitters on Rover for Dog Walking in ColeRidge Estates. About 81% of ColeRidge Estates 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 ColeRidge Estates. 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 ColeRidge Estates 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 ColeRidge Estates 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 ColeRidge Estates 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!
