“Camilla has been walking Tobby twice a week since January 7th, and she’s been an absolute lifesaver! With work keeping me busy, I was struggling to keep up with Tobby’s daily walks, but Camilla swooped in and made everything so much easier. Tobby, being his usual curious and bossy self, has found the perfect walking buddy in her. Camilla sends the cutest photos of him during their walks—whether he’s sniffing everything in sight or striking his signature “I own this place” pose. It’s such a relief knowing he’s in such great hands and getting the care he needs. Camilla is beyond reliable, kind, and so attentive to Tobby’s needs. If you’re looking for someone amazing to care for your dog, stop looking—Camilla is IT. I can’t recommend her enough!”
“Radhika is wonderful, I am so glad I found her. She has a friendly, calm and loving presence which my dog immediately responded to. She is also very professional in her communication, timeliness and focus on my dog’s safety and health. I 100% recommend Radhika and look forward to using her service services again”
“Caroline has been great walking my puppy Charlie. She has been on time and always updating me on how he's doing along with sending me photos. he seems very excited to see her, her energy around dogs is great! At the end of their walk she insures he has clean puppy pads and fresh water.”

About: I have owned or cared for all sorts of animals - dogs, cats, horses and had a pet Vervet monkey, a bush-baby, and a mongoose while living in Tanzania! These exotic pets were pretty special, but not the sort of pet I expect to see in Toronto. I have trained many dogs over the years and will reinforce your training regime while your dog is in my care. I love the outdoors, in all seasons. If you live nearby or your dog is staying over, I look forward to sharing the trails of Taylor Creek Park with them! I am semi-retired and have a flexible schedule. I’m happy to offer overnight boarding in my home or pet sitting in your home. I have a ravine close by for nice long dog walks and able to provide the exercise routine your pet is used to. My apartment is in a converted house with a private entrance. I live within walking distance of parks and the Taylor Creek ravine. In your home, I am a responsible, caring, experienced pet owner who respects both pets and owners alike. I have completed a course in Pet First Aid and CPR.
About: Since a kid I’ve had many pets in my life, they have a special place in my heart. I have over 10 years of personal pet ownership, and currently have a 2 cats. I have over 4 years of experience fostering complex medical needs from puppies, older dogs and kittens. I’ve fostered complex medical care animals for over 7 years. From bottle feeding new born kittens, to a palliative care dog to a blind bearded dragon! I’m comfortable with young, full of energy puppies/kitten to a senior who just wants to snooze. I’m experienced with medically complex pets who need some extra TLC, medication, and patience. I also have experience handling small mammals, birds and reptiles so exotics are also welcomed 😊 I am quite flexible! I can adjust for early mornings, late at night or somewhere in between. I am happy to provide a one time service or something ongoing. Your pet will be my centre, and I ensure that whatever routine they need will be followed to keep anxiety low and comfort high. If they need a bit of decompression, I’ll keep my eye on them but leave space. If they need to be Velcroed to me, I’ll be clinging next to them. I want their experience with me to best match what they are use to. I’m comfortable adjusting approaches as needed and think flexibly in my care is key! I want to work with you to ensure your pet builds trust with me as well as you.

About: I have years of dog care experience including with my own pups. I love animals and have worked lots with seniors who may need some extra care. All the dogs i’ve worked with tend to have big personalities, so if you’ve got a lil diva on your hands i’ve got you covered! I’m a standup comedian (I actually run a dog friendly comedy show!), which means day shifts are ideal for my scheduling, but it also means your dog may have to put up with my horrible puns. I’ve done anything from a 3 hour walk+feed shift to full weekends/overnights, so I’m flexible to your needs! My current housing situation won’t allow for me to board pets at my home, however as a house sitter I am clean, organized, and considerate. I prioritize fun and safety in my pet care, while remaining mindful of the owner and the pooch’s wants and needs. I run on a firm schedule to ensure that feedings and walks are done at the right time, with lots of time in between for play!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - East York
Kiara was an absolute pleasure to work with.. she is attentive and very personable. She asked many questions about my fur baby Jazzy , toensure she could attend to her every need. She worked very well with Jazzy ( a 90 lb lab who is reactive to other dogs). I highly recommend her services. 😊😊
Simran has been absolutely amazing with Mali! She is incredibly kind, reliable, and easy to work with. Communication has been excellent from the very beginning, and she always keeps me updated with plenty of photos and messages, which gives me great peace of mind while I'm away. It's clear that she genuinely cares about Mali and treats him like one of her own. I couldn't be happier with the care she's provided and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog walker.
Highly recommend! She was super friendly, professional, and communicated really well throughout. She came on short notice without any issue and was fantastic with our 72 lb boxer mix, who’s very high energy. She even administered his medication and sent the cutest photo while she was out with him. We’ll definitely be booking again!
Andre and Bryan have been amazing. When I moved to this area, it was really important for me to find trustworthy people to care for my dog. They are super communicative, very attentive, and always make sure my dog is happy and safe. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable dog walker.
Cheryl not only accepted a last minute booking but also was very easy to work with. My two dogs are diammetrically different in temperament and Cheryl and her daughter managed both and got them both back tired and happy. Would recommend, again. and would re-book again!
Cindy did an amazing job walking my 13-year-old lovely dog Isis, last week. She is incredibly patient, gentle with senior dogs, and highly reliable. I felt completely at ease knowing Isis was in such loving, capable hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog walker
We did a walk with Briana and our two mini schnauzers in preparation for having her housesit/dogsit for us. It was great to be able to show her how and where the dogs like to walk, discuss the details of her stay with them and in the house, and of course get to know her a bit better. She was so great with our boys, and we look forward to booking her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in East York on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

There are 7,401 sitters on Rover for Dog Walking in East York. About 85% of East York 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 East York. 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 East York.

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 East York 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 East York 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:
- 84% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 87% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
