“Colleen is an extremely calm and gentle person which is so great for my boy who is very nervous. Have booked several walks and wouldn’t hesitate a bit to book more in future if the need ever arises :)”
About: I have cared for my own pets for years and have experience with cats, dogs, and bunnies. I enjoy the outdoors and love spending my free time with animals. I grew up with many pets and now that I am moved away from home and haven’t lived with them for a few years I want to help others care for their own. I am a responsible, animal loving sitter who’s great at following routines and giving pets the attention and affection they need. I offer flexible, casual pet sitting with availability on both weekdays and weekends, varying by week, and I’m always happy to coordinate schedules in advance. I prioritize safety by respecting house rules, securing doors and gates, following care instructions closely, and ensuring pets are supervised, comfortable, and safe at all times in your home.
About: As a dog and cat mom myself, I know first hand how difficult it can be to find someone trustworthy, reliable, and nurturing to care for one’s pets. I am dedicated to alleviating that worry and stress by providing professional, compassionate, high quality care when pet parents can’t be there. A former vet tech, I am especially perceptive and attuned to a pet’s medical needs, understand and adhere to veterinary instructions, and am trained to observe changes in an animal’s physical condition. I am also insured, licensed and bonded, and trained in Pet First Aid. In addition, I am a certified dog walker through the dog*tec Dog Walking Academy. The only program of its kind for dog walkers, this widely respected program covers a comprehensive array of topics critical to professional dog walking, including canine behaviour, basic training predicated on positive reinforcement, management, and First Aid and safety protocols. I have been a Karen Pryor Academy Certified Training Partner for 4 years. I offer positive reinforcement training such as clicker training, loose leash walking, go to mat, recall, name recognition, sit, stay, leave it, reorient towards handler when crossing threshold (i.e. going through doorway). I also offer potty training advice and how to manage puppy biting. Hint: puppy biting is normal as they learn to explore their world. I provide tips and advice on how to help get through this sometimes scary, yet normal puppy development stage. 🤗 Currently available weekdays of dog walks. Currently available weekdays and weekends for drop in cat care. I have my own dog and cats and know that pets thrive on routine and consistency. I arrive for visits as scheduled. Happy greetings for dogs and cats. Dog walking: harnessed/leashed and depart for our walk. Arrival back home: take walking gear (harness/leash) off, refresh water, play or TLC time. Cat drop in visits: feeding and refresh water, give meds if applicable, scoop litter boxes. Then playtime or quiet time depending on cat’s preference.
About: I've been around dogs my whole life, I have some experience in training, I love dogs I would take care of your dog like it is my own I work at a landscaping company and I'm waiting for the snow to start working, and I get really bored around the house so walking your dog (s) would keep me busy I am careful to follow owner instructions and am observant of the dogs behaviour and temperament. I know how to stop a dog fight and prevent potential conflicts with other dogs who may be passing by. I will do what ever I need to do to keep your fur-baby safe and happy.
“Jalyssa was absolutely the best. So friendly and capable and caring. She was so good to Sam and Skye and even sent videos of their walk. I would highly recommend Jalyssa for either pet sitting, dog walks or both.”
About: There has never been a time in my life where I have not been deeply involved with animals of all kinds. Currently, I'm a registered veterinary technician (think nurse) and have 10+ years of experience with sick and healthy animals. I have the ability to continue any training or care needed during your absence. Over night care, post-operative care/rehab, and veterinarian prescribed treatments (from monitoring heart and respiratory sounds/rates to injections) are available on request. Vet specific requests require a note or phone call from the vet as I cannot treat without their advisement. Please inquire with your chosen veterinarian about which treatments may be done at home safely. Your pet's safety and comfort are very important to me. My routine is fairly open for pet care. I am available at most times, including over night, on most days, unless I'm seeing another client for a visit. My availability is on my profile. I like to be respectful of animals boundaries whenever possible and try to keep things positive during visits. Whether it's cuddling, play, walking, training, paraplegic care, hospice care, or post-operative care, I have done it all. I have a certification with Fear Free, allowing me to deal with anxious, fearful, or lonely pets. I'm familiar with many restraint/safety tools, such as muzzles and towel wraps, if needed, but I prefer to work with your pet's boundaries rather than pushing them. As a vet nurse, I am able to look after pets with numerous conditions and have experience with CPR. Nursing tasks are available on request and may include additional fees depending on how technical the skill is.
“Wonderful person! Great with our pup and the walking worked wonders to manage our dog’s energy level when we couldn’t get her out because of unexpected circumstances. Courtney was flexible and available right away when we requested her. She was able to take our pup to the dog park as well which was great!”
About: Animal lover with a lot of free time. I recently had to put my jack russell down after rescuing her 9 years ago and am not ready to add another fur baby permanently to my life at this time. I absolutely love dogs and your pet will be very well looked after in my care. I would love to spend time with dogs of all breeds while I fill this void as I'm missing having my little doggo around. I have my niece in my home part time who is currently enrolled in dog handling and very experienced with different breeds. I love nature and going for walks and I live close to many parks and trails. Looking forward to spending time with your animals💕
“Lindsay was on time and ready for a walk on a chilly morning. She is friendly and pleasant and she quickly made a connection with George our dog ! Feeling confident to be leaving her to look after our animals for the upcoming week.”
About: I have cared for animals for my family members, friends, co-workers, and neighbours for as long as I can remember. I have experience caring for a variety of different animals with different needs. I have experience giving medicine to dogs and cats including using syringes for oral medicine, and in-ear topical medicine. I also have a food-motivated dog who is skilled at getting into things she shouldn’t, so I am well-aware of what human foods are toxic for dogs and I am overly cautious about making sure animals do not have access to anything potentially dangerous. My family has always had cats and dogs in our home, so I know how important it is to treat them like the valued family members they are. I am currently applying to be an on-call teacher so my schedule is very open and will remain flexible. If I accept a request on Rover, I will make sure my sole focus is on your pet’s care. As I am only available to provide care in your home, I will ensure your home is cared for and remains a safe space for your pet whenever I pop-in or stay. I am overly cautious about pet safety and will be sure your pet is secure and does not have access to anything potentially dangerous.

Amazing experience! Teresa was incredibly accommodating, understanding, and punctual. Her communication was excellent — quick responses and super clear updates every time. She also took multiple photos, and honestly, they’re some of the best pictures I have of my dog to this day. I felt completely at ease knowing my pup was in such caring hands. Highly recommend! 🐶✨

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Kamloops is $28 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $39 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 86 sitters on Rover for Dog Walking in Kamloops. About 90% of Kamloops 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 Kamloops. 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 Kamloops 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 Kamloops 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 Kamloops 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!
