“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’ve had plenty of experience caring for dogs since I got my own when I was 8. I have been around dogs of all different breeds, ages, and sizes, and I love them all! I have always been the go to dog sitter for friends and family because I am reliable, trustworthy, and attentive. Every dog has its own needs and routine so I will always make sure they are loved, cared for, and come home happy! I am currently in my 3rd year at Queen’s studying Health. I am available all day Thursday-Sunday. I have limited weekly commitments outside of classes so I should be very flexible with timing. I live in a central area in Kingston with nearby parks and lots of walkable streets. My home also has plenty of room for a dog and it has an outdoor area!
“Vanessa was so great! She tracked how many pee’s my little gremlin took (she marks her territory) and she brought in two of my packages for me which is so nice. Thank you so much Vanessa! Will definitely be contacting you again”

About: I am a dog owner for the past 10 years and love walking in all seasons of the year! I am happy to walk as far as needed and enjoy every second of it! I am a full time student at Queens University and have lots of time around my class schedule to walk according to your needs and wants! I am available for dog walking whether it’s one time or if you need a scheduled walk a few times per week! I am happy to adapt to anyone’s dog walking needs and am comfortable around any size and energy that your dog fits.
About: Hello! I'm Thalia, and I live in downtown Kingston neighbourhood close to many parks. I am a graduate student with a flexible schedule. I grew up with and cared for a Wheaton Terrier for 14 years, and have been a dog lover my whole life. With such a flexible work schedule, I have a lot of free time that I'd love to spend hanging with a doggo! I am comfortable with dogs of all ages. I can give outdoor breaks whenever needed, and at least a 30-60 minute walk each day. I'm happy to follow special care instructions and can help with medication if needed. I will make sure that your dog has a very fun, safe and comfortable time with lots of love and attention! As I work from home full time, I am very flexible and can include pet care into my daily routine to fit the needs of your pets 😊 I live close to many parks for lots of outdoor play time, and in a safe neighbourhood for long walks. I do not yet have a dog of my own, so can devote all my attention to taking care of yours!
About: I've been around animals for almost 10 years, and caring for them has always been a big part of my life. Back home, my family has four dogs, three cats, and two rabbits, and I'm often the one encouraging my family to welcome more animals into our lives! I've cared for different breeds and sizes of dogs, including Rottweilers, Saint Bernards, Huskies, and Bulldogs. I'm comfortable with large dogs and have experience with everyday care, including feeding, providing fresh water, bathing, and giving them plenty of attention and affection. I'm equally passionate about cats! I have three cats of my own, and I love how each one has a unique personality. I believe cats are sometimes misunderstood, so I respect their boundaries, pay attention to their behavior, and let them approach me at their own pace. My love for animals goes beyond my own pets. I care about stray dogs and cats I encounter and have helped by providing them with food. I've also volunteered at animal foster homes because I love helping animals feel safe and cared for. When I was younger, I dreamed of becoming a veterinarian because I wanted to help and save animals. Although my career path has changed, my love for animals hasn't. For me, pet sitting is an opportunity to do something I genuinely love while helping owners feel at ease. I would treat every pet with patience, responsibility, and the same affection I give my own. ❤️ I'm generally available Thursday through Sunday, from 12 PM to 8 PM. I'm also flexible with my schedule and happy to discuss arrangements that work best for you and your pet, as long as they fit around my university classes and academic commitments. Your pet's safety and comfort are my priorities. When caring for pets in their own home, I respect their familiar routines and environment to help them feel safe and relaxed while you're away. I carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, fresh water, litter-box cleaning, and any specific needs your pet may have. I'm attentive to their behavior and make sure doors and windows are secure so they stay safe. I also respect your home, keep your pet's space tidy, and provide updates so you can feel reassured while you're away. My goal is to make both you and your pet feel comfortable and confident in my care.
“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 am a life-long animal lover and have been caring for pets since I was 11 years old. I have experience walking dogs of all ages, from excitable puppies to slow-moving seniors. I have also cared for dogs of various temperaments. Whether they are bit over-enthusiatic (like mine), timid, anxious, reactive, or completely nonchalant, I'm patient in getting to know each new pet and their personality. I love learning about the little quirks that make them unique. Through getting to know their routines, likes, and dislikes, I'm committed to giving each animal the best possible care. I currently have a dog and a cat, and I love both animals equally (when asked if I'm a dog person or a cat person, I can't choose!). As a self-employed artist, I can flex my daily work schedule to meet your pet's needs. Mid-morning stroll? No problem. Afternoon trip to the park? On it. Evening drop-in visit? I got you covered. I know from experience that scheduling time to make sure you get your dog out and about can be tricky between work and other commitments. I'm happy to help you give your dog the steps and sniffs they need. I am a self-employed artist, so my schedule is typically quite flexible from week to week. I am open to walks and drop-ins most days from 7am - 7pm. My own dog loves his routine, so I try my best to stick to that. He gets breakfast and dinner at regular times, mental exercise games after meals, regular backyard breaks, 1-2 walks per day, and lots of snuggles and pets. This is the kind of care that I offer to all pets I care for. Specifically for visiting pets and those who I don't know especially well, I make sure to supervise so that they aren't getting into any danger or trouble.
About: I have experience caring for pets with medical needs, and physical differences. I am comfortable providing oral medications by syringe or pills. Previously I have cared for pets who are deaf, blind, or have high levels of anxiety. I am willing to work with & understand their temperaments and personalities. My experience with caring for pets comes from owning my own pets, pet-sitting for friends, and assisting with pet care when I babysat for families. I’m currently working Part time & looking to supplement my work with pet care! I am available during the day for drops in or walks! I am available for short daily walks, longer weekly walks, playtime sessions with your active pup, etc. I am also happy to drop in to spend some quality time with your pet, give them some top up on water/food, and let them do their business!
About: Heyy! I’ve been around animals my entire life, and caring for them has always been something I genuinely love. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs, and all sizes, from Chihuahuas to Great Danes. I’m especially experienced with reactive and separation anxiety dogs. I understand that every animal has their own personality, needs, and comfort level, so I always take the time to make them feel safe and cared for. I genuinely love hosting and caring for animals, and I’d be excited to give your pet the same attention, patience, and care I would give my own. I’m currently a university student with only 1–4 hours of classes per day during the week, and Mondays are completely free. Outside of class and on weekends, I’m usually home with plenty of time to care for your pets. I have lots of time and energy for pups, including walks, playtime, cuddles, and keeping them company. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I keep my home very clean and organized and have quality pet supplies to make pets feel comfortable. For daycare and boarding, I can care for pets in my home or yours. My home has a spacious, private bedroom that can be used as a safe and comfortable space for your pet when they need quiet time or rest. I’m also very attentive to cleanliness and will regularly clean up after pets to keep their environment fresh and hygienic. For house sitting, I’m flexible and can potentially stay at your home full-time depending on your needs and preferences.

“This was our first time using Rover, and I was very pleased to discover and book a walk with Sophy. She was very communicative and took the most adorable photos of our boy. Thank you, Sophy!”

About: I am an active person and I love combining my passion for the outdoors with caring for dogs, whether it’s a walk, a run, or just spending quality time together. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, frequently dog sitting for friends and family. While my work schedule doesn’t allow me to have dogs full-time, dog walking gives me the joy of being around dogs while helping them stay happy and healthy. I’d love the opportunity to care for your dog like one of my own! Feel free to message me with any questions :) I am currently pursuing a masters of nursing degree here in Kingston and hoping to fill my time with some dog walking !! I have lots of experience dog sitting and dog walking for friends and family and love to spend time outdoors! I am a very gentle person when it comes to pets and believe in lots of positive reinforcement and quality care! All dogs deserve lots of love and time spent outdoors!

About: I have a dog at home everyday since i can remember up until I moved out for school. I was always on dog duty growing up and loved it! (Didn’t feel like a chore for me). I will always treat your dog as my own with endless amounts of love and belly rubs! I currently work online trading stocks in the stock market. My schedule is very flexible and laid back as I work for around 3-4 hours a day and choose when those hours are. My full attention will be giving to any pet I take care of, and will work around my hours to ensure your pet gets the love and care they deserve. I have a fenced yard and no pets at home. I take 3-4 walks daily on my own, and I’m looking for a walking buddy to join me! I have a living room with a tv with multiple couches along with a bed in my bed room. If I’m ever in your house, I go above and beyond to ensure the house is in the same state it was when I arrived, and any extra requests you have for me get done during my stay.
About: I'm a student in Kingston that misses their dogs and would love to help out some local paw-rents with basic services like walking, sitting and overnight boarding. I'm happy to do whatever it takes to make sure your dog is as happy as can be :) I am a part-time student at Queen's and am home and available for care, walks, and potty breaks most of the day Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays I have a large main floor and an unfenced yard for leashed potty breaks. I live close to the lake and multiple parks so there's lots of great spots nearby for enriching walks!
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: I have a beautiful, five year-old Jack, Russell and golden lab mix whom I love with all my heart but while I’m doing school, I am away from her so I’m happy to provide all the love and attention to your pets I would to my baby! I work a part time job but it can absolutely be worked around with proper notice! I am willing to do one time or regular walks. I have a fenced backyard as well as a nearby dog park and family park to make sure your pet is stimulated and tired from a day of fun and play!
“I was away so Britney was communicating with my mom. She said the pups were always happy to see Britney, and she communicated well. We were happy with Britney and would book again :)”

About: I have been in Dog Care for over 6 years now. I specialize in reactive dog care, and group walks. I used to manage a daycare named Dog Logic Toronto, which had over 90 clients and a perfect 5 star rating on Google. Today, I'm here to make sure your pup gets the care they need, the love they deserve, and the fun they want to have. I currently work full time in the afternoon and evenings, so I'm happy to help out with any morning needs, I also have full availability during the weekends. I take my own high energy guy out for an hour every morning as well. I ensure that your animals know that their space, their home is still safe. I understand that I am new to their environment and am mindful to take my time until they are comfortable with me.
The median cost per walk for dog walking in Kingston is $20
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Kingston
Courtney was really wonderful with Bowie! She took excellent care of him and was attentive to his individual needs. Communication and updates were great throughout, and I felt confident he was in good hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommended!

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

Peter took care of Sky my dog who is 5 years old Mixed German shepherd while I was away. On spot when Sky met Peter he liked him, and usually I go with what my dog tells me 😅 I was away for 15 days and Peter was always on schedule, made sure Sky is fed has fresh water and get enough exercise. It is not only that, Sky and I went through a very stressful situation and I could not get back home as the flights were fully booked despite all the stressful situation Peter still watched out for my dog and didn't leave him even the last minute where i could not find any ride home due to the weather he came and took care of Sky. I highly recommend Peter he is very reliable and wont leave your furry friends under no circumstances! Peter is very professional and knows how to deal with all types of dogs. Thank you Peter!

We've hired Tessa multiple times, and our pets LOVE her. She's always so responsive and has always been able to help out with a last minute request. We get so many cute photos and updates, and we know our pets are so well taken care of when we leave them with Tessa. So thankful we have someone we can trust our pets with. :)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Kingston is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $40 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 200 sitters on Rover for Dog Walking in Kingston. About 83% of Kingston 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 Kingston. 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 Kingston 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 Kingston 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 Kingston 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!
