About: I've had my own cats and currently have a small dog. I have experience with puppy training and senior care. I'll treat your animals like my own and want them to be as happy as can be. I love my little dog very much and I'd love to give your pet the care that it needs during the times you can't. I have a flexible schedule and genuinely enjoy having pets as part of my day. I’m able to provide regular walks, playtime, potty breaks, meals, and plenty of attention and companionship. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routine so they can feel comfortable and settled while you’re away. I'm currently in graduate school and my schedule is pretty flexible. I'm excited to meet your lovely pets! I want pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while they’re with me. I keep a close eye on them, follow their normal routines, and pay attention to their individual needs and behaviors. I’m careful about doors, gates, food, medications, and anything else that could pose a risk. I have a small, friendly dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I’ll treat your home and your pet with the same care and respect I would want for my own.
“Jasmine has been so wonderful with our dogs. We are so grateful for her help with our two big boys during this period while I am having some health issues. Jasmine found a way to fit us into her schedule really quickly, answered messages right away, and was always extremely accommodating. Even when I forgot to update my address on Rover (and sent her to our old place) she was understanding and found time to still see our dogs. Plus our big boys can be alot to walk together but she handles them without any issue. I can tell the dogs get excited to see Jasmine and always get a bunch of good excercise with her. We have had minimal experience with Rover but Jasmine is definitely a great choice to care for the furbabies.”
About: I have been taking care of animals my whole life, i can take care of puppies, mid size and large dogs aswell. I have a husky at my home. He is friendly aswell. I basically work from home, So I can give maximum care to the dogs. I will be taking for long walks and feed them on time. My daily average steps for this year is 9000, that itself says I am an active person. I have fully furnished house and the dogs will be safe inside the house. They can freely roam around the house and the doors will be locked all the time. I can also put them in crate if the client ask for.
About: I babysat my neighbor's bigger dog at the age of 12 and then my aunt's puppy in it's earlier months as she was at work. :) I regularly spend time outdoors on walks, working out, at the park and more, so I believe incorporating this service will be the perfect transition towards a profession, as spending time outdoors is a major part of my lifestyle. I believe communication is the biggest thing when undertaking such a real responsibility, so in order to prepare for this I like to ensure everything is clear by using my personal checklist. The best way to ensure safety and trust is clear communication and patience. I want to ensure the dog is comfortable and aware of their surroundings.
“Niki took my dog for walks while I could not due to doctor’s orders. Fred got so excited whenever she came to pick him up! She is prompt and very pleasant and I would definitely recommend her.”
About: I’ve had a love and passion for caring for animals since I was a kid, and thought I’d enjoy to work with animals and their owners aswell. I’m currently in-between jobs, but that doesn’t mean I don’t have time to care for your kitties or puppies while you’re on vacation, going out, or need a small break. My residence is fully fenced in, in a friendly neighborhood with a reliable pet-sitter who will notify you on your pets health, walking experiences, and general behaviours.
“Tanya was amazing! She was responsive to messages, proactive with communicating, and made me feel really comfortable. I'd love to continue working with her if she will have us ☺️”
“We had an excellent experience with Madeline! She was incredibly reliable, flexible, and very accommodating to our schedule, which made everything so much easier. We really appreciated the updates and photos she sent after each visit—they gave us peace of mind knowing Leo was happy and well cared for. We wouldn't hesitate to use her in the future and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone to look after their pet.”
About: Hi there! My name is Umber. I am currently becoming a certified dog trainer (CPDT-KSA). By learning updated and current information on dog behaviour, dog body language, and training techniques, I’m able to give your pets more informed, quality care. I take in dogs from a maximum of 4-5 families at a time, so that your pet can get all the love and attention they normally would at home. I also offer complimentary meet and greets to make sure we’re a good fit and that your pup feels comfortable here! Please note that my daycare rate covers up to 8 hours. For longer stays (e.g., 8am–8pm), an extended care fee will apply, depending on the length of stay. I have over 15 years of experience taking care of animals. I have 1 miniature dachshund named Honeydew who is super sweet and great with all dogs. As a devoted pet parent myself, I completely understand the amount of responsibility that comes with looking after animals. I also understand how difficult it can be to leave your baby with a sitter, which is why I treat any animals that stay with me as my own and make their safety and well-being a top priority of mine. I live in a 3 story house with a fully fenced backyard. I have no children, no caged pets, and have a peaceful quiet home. I aim to make each stay like a vacation for your pets! Examples of activities can include long walks, playing fetch, tug of war, hide and seek, a stuffed Kong, bully sticks, snuffle mats, lick mats, etc. I will go above and beyond for your loved ones, follow your guidelines and provide exactly what is needed. Your pets will be welcomed and made part of our family while with me. Parks and enclosed fields are also nearby for walks and activity. Updates and pictures/videos of your pup can be sent to you either once daily, or every other day, depending on your preference. With my service you can have peace of mind knowing your baby is getting individualized care. **Note: If you’d like to book with me, I ask that your dog be on the kind, calm, gentle side. Overly aggressive or extremely hyper dogs do not match well with the anxiety free environment I try to provide. Hyperactivity and aggression issues can also pose a safety risk to Honey and other animals I am sitting. Thank you! I am a full-time pet sitter and dedicate the majority of my time to learning about animals and how to give them the best life. This includes obedience training, enrichment, lots of exercise, and lots of love ♥️ Additional safety information: • I try to dog proof my home as much as possible (ie: having round side tables instead of a sharp edged coffee table, keeping pups behind a gate when cooking foods that could be harmful for them, being able to lock/secure my garbage cans, having a high fenced and very secure backyard, etc. • Dogs are always supervised during playtime and when in the backyard. Additionally, I have cameras in the backyard so that I can keep watch on any pups that may need a longer amount of time to potty. The backyard fence also has motion sensor lights installed so that pups have a much easier time seeing when it’s dark out! • All meals and/or bones are given to each dog separately to ensure that no resource guarding occurs. I use playpens, crates, dog gates, different rooms, different floors, etc to give each pup their space and privacy while eating.
About: I can take care of your pet in your home or go on a great walk. I look forward to seeing all the animals and servicing their needs. I work from home and have open availability to service clients. I’m available day or night. You pet will be happy and satisfied with my care. I don’t offer the service of the animals coming to my house. I will come to the animal. I have transportation and am available for anywhere in the Edmonton and surrounding areas
“Alyssa was absolutely wonderful. I was out of province for vacation and her communication was impeccable. She took excellent care of my German Shepherd, showing kindness and patience towards her to gain her trust. I would say Alyssa is definitely a part of the pack now! I would recommend Alyssa for any pet care needs.”
About: I have been taking care of our puppy for 7 years and volunteering for an animal shelter for half a year now. From providing nurturing and attentive care to dogs of all sizes. From energetic puppies to senior pets, I ensure that each one feels loved, safe, and happy. My approach is personalized, focusing on the unique needs of every pet. Whether it's playtime, walks, or special dietary requirements, your dog will be in good hands with me! I'm a full-time university student without a part-time job, so I can spend at least 4 hours a day to take care of the kids. I ensure flexibility to meet your babies' needs, whether it’s daily walks, feeding, or playtime. Weekends are fully open for more extended care. In my home, fur babies enjoy a safe, secure environment with plenty of space to play and rest. I prioritize safety, following any specific care instructions to ensure they feel comfortable and at ease. If caring for them in their homes, I maintain a calm, clean atmosphere, respecting both the babies' routine and the owner’s space.
About: I am Sim, lover of all pets, young and old, big and small. I have had pets since I was 5 years old and I am a mommy to my Labrador. I am sure I will pamper your pooch. Any specific requests for them? Let me know! I allow them on my couch, unless you prefer them not to. I always keep the water bowl full and pets happy and healthy. I am incredibly reliable, trustworthy, and flexible. I am currently working casual, so your baby will get non stop attention. Consistent walks, snuggles, and play sessions are the best way to soothe your fuzzy friend. I live in a house with a fenced yard and friendly neighbors! I also have a very welcoming dog who is going to be a great company for your little guy.
“Emily has been an awesome sitter for our dog Epi and cat Pepper. Epi is incredibly timid and fearful which sometimes comes across as scary. Emily has practiced a lot of patience to get to know Epi better and continued to persevere. Emily went above and beyond to find the best strategies to bond with Epi. Emily and Epi are now able to go for long walks and plays together and we are so thankful to have her looking after our fur children. Thank you Emily!”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was 11 years old. My dog Tank was my best friend until he passed away a few years ago. Now any time I am excited for any time I get to spend with animals and I love caring for furry friends! I am currently working Wednesday to Friday and Sunday evenings but my mornings are generally free. I have Mondays off so I can do pet care any time that day! I am very friendly and eager to go for walks! I will treat your pet with the utmost care and respect your household and follow any rules you may have.
“Thank you Ava, just got up from some rest from my red eye, waking up to see he’s lil face sparkle warms my heart, I was able to say hello and throw him some treats this morning with the furbo :) and don’t worry I won’t be using the furbo without letting you know either, I was just making sure he was doing alright on my shuttle to the hotel :)”
About: An animal lover through and through, I grew up around animals from a very young age; owning my own dogs as well as spending every summer of my youth at my godmothers’ farm rounding up cows, turkeys, chickens and yes, farm dogs and cats too. Professionally I’ve been employed as a groomer and a doggy daycare attendant so im well versed in handling dogs and cats of all sizes and temperaments. With me as your second in care, I can promise your domesticated babies will be well loved and taken care of! After putting my safety before the needs of a corporation that employed me for four years, I’ve found myself with plenty of free time on my hands. If you need someone to keep your pets company, you should reach out! I’ve always made a point to get out and move my body everyday which helps me be prepared to take your pups along for the journey! Overnight house sitting will always come with lots of attention and outdoor time on my part. Dog needs a more relaxing time? Absolutely not a problem. I harbour a natural balance between active and lazy, having no issue with chillin and watching some tv. You can count on me to pay attention and take action if any type of emergency were to arise. Integrity is as important to me as your pets’ safety is to you!
About: Hello my name is Jackie and I am a caring, responsible adult with a full-time job in healthcare. I work from Monday to Friday 830-430pm, off on weekends and holidays I have always had many pets growing up and I have yet to meet pets that haven’t loved me, and vice versa. My partner and I have two four month old kittens and therefore I cannot take pets into my home, I would love to come into your home and take care of your fur babies while you are away! I have experience pet and house sitting for multiple families the last 10 years and would be happy to give you some references upon request :) I always believe the easiest transition for your pet while you are away is to keep them in their own homes(familiar surroundings) and to keep up with their daily routines. Your dog will be busy with long walks, going to the park(if ok), play time and endless love and pets. Your cat will receive lots of treats and playtime if they like that kind of thing. I have experience watching pets of all ages and sizes , please contact me as I would love to touch base with you on how I can meet your pets needs I’m working full time, my hours are Monday to Friday 830-430pm, off on weekends and holidays! This consistent schedule allows for me to keep up with your pets daily routines and provide them with adequate socialization time as well. I currently have two kittens of my own with my partner, therefore it would be best for me to care for them in your home! As an added bonus, you will receive a house sitter! Your pets will feel comfortable and safe in their own environment and keeping up with their daily routines

FAQs for Dog Walking - Larkspur
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Larkspur is $28 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $2 and $28 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 1,135 sitters on Rover for Dog Walking in Larkspur. About 85% of Larkspur 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 Larkspur. 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 Larkspur 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 Larkspur 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 Larkspur 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!
