“Brynne did a great job walking Ollie. She was reliable, communicative, and made sure he got plenty of exercise and attention. I felt comfortable knowing he was in good hands, and I would happily book with her again.”
“Jake has been super caring, attentive, and communicative since the beginning of him regularly walking our dogs. It’s so nice to have a reliable person we can trust to check in on and take care of our fur babies :)”
About: I have taken care of dogs most of my life, beginning from my high school days. I had dog-sat for neighbors and friends of mine many times as well, dogs of all sizes and ages. I have experience with senior dogs as my sister and I have a 15 year old dog, as well as experience with reactive pets as our second dog is a rescue from Mexico whom we got through Petsave! I have some experience in training puppies as well, including house training and leash training. I work full time currently, however my shifts vary from 8 to 12hrs depending on the week, and can be anywhere from an early morning to a late evening shift. Considering this, I can be available at different times throughout the day and am willing to work around your schedule to meet you and your pets needs! Whether that be dog walking, drop in visits, or overnight stays. In my home I currently have two cats, however I am unable to offer boarding services at this time. My services include dog walking, drop in visits or dogs or cats, and house-sitting at the clients residence.
About: I’ve grown up with and around dogs and always loved being around and taking care of them. Since 2024 I spent lots of time worthing with dogs of all ages and (mostly mixed) breeds at Petsave in lively. I found my joy in fostering and walking dogs of various sizes and temperaments. I’ll be able to help you no matter if your dogs needs a quick walk to relive themselves or even on longer walks up to 2 hours ( up to 8 km). I work early morning shifts and get home shortly after lunch, meaning I can take your pups out anywhere from 1:30-8 pm Monday to Saturday or anytime on Sunday (even when the weather is less than ideal) I have a fenced in yard with two friendly 70-80 llb mixed breed dogs. The fence is between 5-6 ft tall to ensure even escape artists stay contained and safe. With two of my own at home I have gathered plenty of supplies and techniques to safely secure and walk up to three dogs at once.
About: I've had dogs and cats my entire life. I've also walked and done pet sitting for friends and family since I was a kid. I still do. I love animals and the more I get to see, the better! I am gentle and kind with pets. I handle stress well, and can handle high stress situations well I am available to watch, feed, walk, play with pets all the time, as I am working a job that lets me pick my own hours. I will probably ask a bunch of questions as I like to be extra sure that I am doing things the way that you want. If they have certain schedules, feeding practices, routines, specific treats at specific times. Everything I need to know. I am calm, gentle, and patient.
“We've had an excellent experience with Emily as our dog walker. She is consistently punctual, reliable and incredibly caring with our dog. She always provides thoughtful updates which gives us peace of mind and a glimpse into how each visit went. She is easy to communicate with, making the entire experience seamless. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, compassionate dog walker!”
About: I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs and other pets. My own dogs have always been happy and healthy, and I’ve also cared for my sister’s and sister-in-law’s dogs with the same love and attention. I am available on weekends starting Friday after 5 p.m. On weekdays, I’m also available after 5 p.m. I’m happy to schedule at your convenience. I live in a townhouse, my apartment has its own part of backyard, my neighborhood is calmed and perfect for walks, volume of traffic is very low.
About: As a dedicated dog sitter, what sets me apart is my comprehensive approach to pet care. Beyond providing the essentials like feeding and exercise, I bring a wealth of experience in dog training. With a background in positive reinforcement techniques, I focus on enhancing your dog's obedience and social skills during their stay. This includes commands like sit, stay, and leash manners. Additionally, my keen understanding of canine behavior allows me to tailor the environment to your dog's preferences, minimizing stress and promoting a comfortable stay. Your furry friend will not only receive excellent care but also benefit from a learning and growth experience that will positively impact their behavior and interactions. I am current studying so I have plenty of time apart from college hours. I am totally free on week ends so I can take care and play with them. When caring for pets in my home, I create a comfortable environment with designated play and rest areas, following their routine closely. In clients' homes, I replicate routines while providing companionship and necessary tasks, ensuring pets are well-cared for and content.
About: I’ve raised everything from large Labs and Dalmatians to my current friendly, vaccinated 2-year-old Chihuahua- Muffy. We live in a cozy, one-level home with a decent-sized backyard and a great park just steps away! Whether your pup needs big-dog exercise or small-dog snuggles, I treat every guest like family and strictly follow your routine to ensure they feel safe and right at home. I shih-tzu not, your dog will have a paws-itively great time! I am a firm believer in positive reinforcement and am happy to support any training routines you have in place. Whether it’s reinforcing basic cues like 'sit' and 'stay' or working on leash manners during our park visits, I’ll ensure your pup stays consistent while you're away. Since I'm home all day, I can provide the frequent, short training sessions and immediate praise that help good habits stick. Whether your dog prefers their own crate for a peaceful night’s sleep or likes to snooze on a plush dog bed, I’m happy to follow whatever setup makes them feel most comfortable. Because my home is a one-level 'safe zone,' I can easily keep their favorite spot nearby so they always feel like part of the family. I provide a supervised environment where your pet is never left alone, ensuring they stay happy, relaxed, and secure throughout their stay.
About: I grew up in a farm and went to vet tech college. My love for animals has always existed ever since I was a kid. I’m currently a stay at home mom, and kids are all in school, so looking to fill in the day with some walks or check ins. I have 4 beautiful kids, one senior dog and 2 cats, so we have a full house. But I wouldn’t change it for the world.
“Claudia went above and beyond my expectations. My boy Otis is a very anxious dog and she made him feel comfortable while I was gone all day. She even made sure to give him a snuggle before leaving. I will definitely be using her for more visits whenever needed 😊”
“Elizebeth was fantastic! She was easy to communicate with and always punctual. We were away for 10 days, and she made the whole process so simple and stress-free. Our dog Max got along with her and the daily updates she sent were such a reassurance, something we truly looked forward to each day. Knowing Max was happy and well cared for gave us so much peace of mind. I highly recommend Elizabeth for all your dog walking needs, and I wouldn’t hesitate to work with her again in the future!”

I am still very much available to take care of your pets as much as they need from the moment I’m home until I leave for work the next morning! That means beautiful evening walks!

Dale was a fantastic dog walker for Pablo (we booked a few walls with him). He was reliable, punctual, and made every walk a new adventure, which Pablo absolutely loved. Dale was very comfortable handling him and even reinforced some of his recall training along the way. Highly recommend!

There are 72 sitters on Rover for Dog Walking in Greater Sudbury. About 77% of Greater Sudbury 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 Greater Sudbury. 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 Greater Sudbury.

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 .

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 Greater Sudbury 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.
