About: Been a dog owner for years love dogs and spending time outdoors with them. I have my own German shepherd who is super friendly and always looking for a walking buddy. Also able to walk dogs without my dog incase they are shy or not good around other dogs I’m free most days after 5:00pm and available on weekends any time just give me a call and we can figure something out I’m pretty open I keep a clean backyard and always pick up after my dogs on walks, I am an animal lover so I treat the dogs with care and kindness
About: I have a genuine passion for caring for animals and take pride in providing safe, loving, and attentive care for every pet I look after. I have experience working with a wide range of animals, including energetic puppies, senior dogs who need extra patience and gentleness, as well as reactive dogs that require a calm, understanding approach. I’m also comfortable caring for pets with medical needs and can confidently follow specific routines or administer medications as directed. I treat every animal as if they were my own, ensuring they feel secure, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. My reliability, attention to detail, and deep love for animals make me a great fit for any pet care needs. I incorporate pet care into my daily routine consistently—my own dog and I are out every single day, rain or shine, making walks and outdoor time a non-negotiable part of our schedule. Being in between jobs at the moment has given me the opportunity to fully lean into my passion for animals and dedicate more time and energy to their care. I’m using this time to focus on providing reliable, attentive pet care, and I’m able to offer a flexible schedule to meet a variety of needs. Caring for animals isn’t just something I fit in—it’s something I genuinely enjoy building my days around. I care for every pet as if they were my own, making their comfort, safety, and happiness my top priority. In both my home and my client’s home, I aim to keep pets in a familiar, low-stress environment by following their usual routines as closely as possible—whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or quiet rest. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality and needs, providing lots of attention, affection, and enrichment while also respecting their boundaries. Cleanliness, safety, and clear communication with owners are very important to me, so you can feel confident that your pet is not only well cared for, but truly cared about.
“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 know the essentials of dog care. I’ve lived in a home with a dog for a little over 12 years as an adult. I had the privilege of having my first pup Cooper, raising and training him. From this experience I learned some essential on senior dog care. He requires specialist veterinary care. I have also learned a lot from a family member who works in animal medicine I’ve gone through the incredibly cute puppy phase of training both of my pups. I use positive reinforcement always. Both my dogs thrived with this training and turned out well mannered but still have fun. With any dog I’ve had or looked after, I know exercise is essential. Of course the amount is breed dependant. The two pups I’ve had are high energy breeds, a husky shepherd mix and now a black Labrador. The saying indeed does ring true “a tired dog is a happy dog” I am currently available during the days and early evenings. I have a vehicle but live outside of HRM. It’s best for both people to have advanced notice to insure I can accommodate the request. I care for every pet with patience, kindness, and attention to their needs. Just like people no two dogs are the same. I would want to speak with you to make sure I understand what your furry friend requires to make it as stress free for them. I provide a safe, comfortable environment with plenty of love, supervision, exercise, and positive attention. I make sure your dog feels secure, happy, and well cared for while they’re with me.

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 East Lawrencetown. 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits, dog walking, and doggy day care.

To find walkers in East Lawrencetown 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.

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 East Lawrencetown 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!
