“Alyce was so great with our dog Layla. She gave her medicine, walked her and fed her. The second day she cared for her, Layla had got sick and made a mess in the house and Alyce did her best to clean up and take care of our sick girl. She provided excellent updates and was so accommodating. Highly recommend her care!”
About: I will give lots of love and attention to any dog I have, whether we are playing, running, walking, resting in the shade, or soaking up the sun. As a student, my schedule is highly flexible. I am fully open on weekends and have adaptable hours during the week, allowing me to easily fit dog walking and pet care into my daily routine whenever you need me. I bring a high level of patience, sensitivity, and attentiveness to pet care. When sitting or walking, I ensure your pet stays active, well-hydrated, and loved. I strictly follow your home rules, keeping a clean, safe environment, maintaining their exact feeding and potty schedules, and focusing entirely on your pet's comfort and well-being
“Cassandra was absolutely amazing! She was available on short notice, great communication and updates, flexible schedule, and took great care of Chumpley when I was at work! She understood the potential risks associated with him being a new rescue, although he is very friendly and sweet there are still a lot of unknowns with rescues, and she was great with him”
About: I've been dog sitting and walking small to extra large dogs for over 5 years! I've also had large dogs my whole life. I enjoy spending time outdoors and going for walks and having a pet with me makes it better! I've grown up around puppies as well as dog sat puppies before. Pet care fits into my daily routine as I go for walks everyday, and I'm on a regular routine with times I am available to let dogs out and feeding. I care for pets like they are my own! As a pet owner myself, I take caring for someone's pet very seriously. I will treat your pet as it was my own.
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely enjoy. Through my Veterinary Assistant program at St. Lawrence College, I have gained hands-on experience working with both cats and dogs, learning how to safely handle and restrain them, understand their behaviours, and recognize their individual needs. My education has also given me a better understanding of animal health, proper care, and the importance of making animals feel safe and comfortable. Outside of school, I have experience raising and caring for my own two cats and dog, which has taught me so much about the patience, time, and attention that goes into being a pet owner. From keeping up with their daily routines and making sure they are happy and healthy to getting to know their different personalities and quirks, I truly enjoy being around animals. I am a patient, caring, and attentive person who loves getting to know each animal and making sure they feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for. I currently work part-time, which gives me quite a bit of flexibility with my schedule. I have lots of availability during the afternoons and on weekends, but I'm also more than happy to communicate and adjust scheduling needs whenever possible. I'm always willing to accommodate where/if I can! I would care for pets in a client's home just as I care for my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I have a large-breed dog of my own who lives with me in an apartment, so we're very used to staying active through daily walks, trips to the park, and finding ways to burn off energy. This has taught me how important regular exercise, patience, and keeping pets entertained can be. I'm also comfortable with crating when needed, and I understand that every pet has their own routines, preferences, and needs. I would always do my best to keep their routine consistent, give them lots of attention, and make sure they feel right at home!
About: With 12 years of professional pet care experience, I've worked in dog daycare, obedience training, dog walking companies, and overnight pet sitting for dogs, cats, and small animals. I'm experienced with administering medication and caring for senior pets with special needs. I believe every pet is unique, so I work closely with owners to ensure your furry friend gets the safe, loving care they deserve while you're away. I have a very flexible work schedule that allows me to move my shift around as needed to suit your pets needs. Your pets needs come first to ensure they are happy and healthy. I have 2 friendly cats but only one (Whiskey) will show face during your pets visit in my home. I have an unfenced yard with a tie out that gives your pet tons of space to roam the yard. My yard backs onto the woods and is away from the road. Your pet will always be monitored in my home and will never be left unattended. In your home, I will follow your guidance and continue your pets routine however that may look.
About: I’m calm, reliable, and attentive to each dog’s needs. I’ve worked with all breeds, including reactive dogs, leash pullers, and high-energy dogs, and I adjust my approach based on their behaviour and comfort level. I’m also comfortable reinforcing basic training and sticking to routines to keep dogs happy and safe. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine, and I’m able to be flexible with scheduling. I have a consistent routine and can plan my day around visits, walks, and check-ins to make sure each pet gets the time and attention they need. I’m reliable and make it a priority to stick to each pet’s schedule. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I make sure they are safe at all times, follow any specific instructions closely, and keep a clean and calm environment. I’m very attentive to details like doors, leashes, food, and water to ensure everything is secure and comfortable for the pet. My goal is to build trust so pets feel relaxed and cared for while their owners are away.

About: Van and I have had lots of past experience with taking care of dogs! We have both had labrador retrievers, shepherds, Alaskan Malamute, border collies etc. We currently have a 12 month old labrador/husky that we rescued when she was 9 weeks old. She enjoys playing with other dogs and we have trained her in many domains. she currently knows: sit, stay, down, back up, waiting at doors, paw, high five, spin, around, crate, support, hug, off, leave it, and are working on much more. We would be happy to help train your puppy/dog if you are currently working on anything! Van works full time, however I work part-time and thus some days potty breaks will be 0-2 hours, however other days it may be every 4 hours. On the weekends, we would be able to take them out 0-2 hours :) We have a partially fenced yard and our dog goes on a long tie to ensure she stays safe! She is crate and house trained and usually stays in her crate throughout our work days to ensure she is safe as she still likes to chew on wires! Our puppy and your dogs safety is our number 1 priority :)
“Myriam has made a fabulous first impression with her professionalism and care for our boy. We had her over for a meet and greet followed by taking our dog for a walk a few days later. We look forward to working with her!”
About: I grew up with five dogs, so caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes and personalities, including anxious pups who need extra patience and love.

My schedule is flexible, so I can adjust visits and walks to fit your pet’s needs, and I always make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away.

I carefully follow all instructions and give plenty of love and patience (especially to anxious or shy pets) while always respecting your home so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Many sitters respond to requests in under an hour. Whether you are planning ahead for public holidays, need last-minute care, or same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once.
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 Elginburg. 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 Elginburg 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 Elginburg 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 Elginburg 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 sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
