“Jenna has been great with my dogs. They come back tired and happy. She makes sure they are comfortable, respects their quirks and boundaries, and on a personal note is very adaptable and flexible to schedules and emergencies. Recommend!”

“Heather is always punctual and great with Molly! She took the time to adjust to walking with our dog and we appreciate her flexibility when we require additional walks during the week.”

“Alissa was absolutely wonderful! She was able to help me out on very short notice during a family emergency and took such great care of Ari when I really needed the help. She was amazing with Ari and kept me updated with excellent communication throughout the whole experience, which gave me so much peace of mind during a stressful time. I’m so grateful for her help and would absolutely book with her again! Highly recommend! ❤️”

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember! I grew up surrounded by dogs and cats through friends and family, and I’ve always enjoyed caring for them. I have a 10 y/o dog of my own, so I’m especially comfortable with the patience, attention, and extra care that senior pets may need. I also have experience caring for cats and have spent years looking after pets for friends and family. When I first moved to Canada 8 years ago, I regularly dog-sat for a family friend, which is where I really started enjoying caring for other people’s pets. Whether your pet needs an energetic walk, some extra patience, or simply a little company and affection, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. I work during the week, so my schedule is generally busy from Monday to Thursday, but I can accommodate visits times after 5pm. From Friday through Sunday, I have more flexibility and extra time to dedicate to pet care. I enjoy spending my weekends outdoors, staying active, and being around animals, so dog walking and pet sitting would fit naturally into my routine. I’m excited to use my free time doing something I genuinely enjoy while giving pets plenty of attention, exercise, and care. For now, I’m offering dog walking and drop-in visits only. Although I may offer house sitting in the future. My top priorities are always safety and trust. For walks, I make sure your dog is securely leashed, stay aware of our surroundings, avoid unsafe areas or situations, and follow your instructions regarding their routine, behaviour, and needs.
About: I currently work at a veterinary clinic with emergency clinic experience. That said, I am capable of recognizing signs of illness or distress quickly and am able to act immediately should something arise, as well as capable and confident administering medication orally and subsubcutaneously. Working with and having dogs since a young age allows me to understand and provide your pet with their unique requirements. I am more than happy to work with any individual and/or special care needed. My experience and passion extends beyond dogs and cats as I have owned and cared for birds, reptiles, freshwater fish and rodents. I work full time but in 12hr shifts allowing 3-4 full days of time dedicated to your pets. I am available Thursdays, Fridays, Sundays and most Saturdays. I only offer services at your home at the moment but am happy to work with you to ensure I understand the needs of your pet and keep any changes to their regular routine to minimum or no change whenever possible while you're away.
About: I’ve been taking care of my own dog for the past four years, so I’m very used to the everyday parts of dog care, like walking, feeding, playing, cleaning up, and just spending time with them. I know every dog is different, so I’m happy to follow whatever routine your dog is used to and give them time to get comfortable with me. I’m currently a graduate student, so my schedule depends a little on my classes. I’m usually pretty flexible outside of class and can arrange my time around walks, drop-in visits, or pet sitting. I’ll only take a booking if I know I actually have enough time to take good care of your pet. I’ll follow the routine and instructions you give me, especially for things like feeding, walks, and anything your pet should or shouldn’t do. I always keep dogs on leash outside and pay attention to how they’re acting, especially in a new place or around other dogs. I’m also happy to send you pictures and updates while you’re away.
“She was great with Phoebe! Reliable, professional, and clearly very experienced with dogs. I felt completely comfortable knowing Phoebe was in good hands. Communication was excellent, and everything went smoothly. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog walker.”

About: I have always loved animals and enjoy making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I have experience caring for dogs and cats and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I am patient, responsible, and attentive to details, whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, or simply some company while you are away. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I will treat them with the same care and attention I would want for my own. I am happy to follow your pet’s usual routine and provide regular updates so you can feel comfortable while you are away. I’m available for pet care after 5:30 p.m. on weekdays and have open availability on weekends. I’m happy to provide walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and lots of love and attention. I can also be flexible with weekend bookings to accommodate your pet’s routine and needs. I always make sure pets are in a safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment. I follow each pet’s routine and any instructions provided by their owner, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and other special needs. I am attentive to their behavior and surroundings to help prevent accidents and keep them comfortable.
About: Pets have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with family dogs, and loved my own dogs and cats as a pet parent, so I’m very comfortable caring for both. I am also a volunteer at the Humane Society London & Middlesex. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine and little quirks. I’m happy to follow their usual schedule for meals, walks, playtime, litter care and, of course, plenty of attention and affection. I am also comfortable and experienced with administering basic medications if necessary. I work from home, which gives me the flexibility to spend time with pets while house sitting, providing regular outdoor breaks, companionship and supervision throughout the day. My laptop is pretty easy to carry anywhere! For house sitting visits that are overnight, my husband and I will often work as a team, especially if there is more than 1 dog involved to provide the best possible care. Let me know in the request if for some reason you prefer just me (ex. If your animal is more comfortable with females or something). Most importantly, I know how much trust is involved in leaving both your pet and your home in someone else’s care. I’ll treat them with the same care and respect I’d want for my own — and I’m always happy to send plenty of photos and updates while you’re away. 🐾 I work remotely from home, which gives me a lot of flexibility in my day. I can easily bring my laptop with me while house sitting, so I’m able to spend plenty of time with your pet throughout the day rather than being away for long stretches. As long as I have Wi-Fi and a place to plug in, I’m all set! This makes it easy for me to provide regular potty breaks, walks, meals, playtime and lots of companionship. Pets in my care are treated like family. I know how important routines, comfort and consistency are, so I’ll always follow your instructions closely and make sure your pet feels safe, relaxed and loved while you’re away. In your home, I’m respectful of your space and mindful of things like secure doors and gates, feeding schedules, medications, walks and any special routines your pet may have. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident knowing they’re in good hands.
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have always had a special love for dogs and cats. I’ve had five dogs of my own - two Black Labs, a Great Dane, a Yorkie, and a Basset Hound, as well as two cats. Having such a variety of pets has made me comfortable caring for animals of all different sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities. I have around 15 years of experience caring for pets, both my own and those of friends and family. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playing, bathing, and giving pets lots of attention and affection. I understand that every animal has their own personality and routine, and I’m happy to adapt to whatever makes your pet feel happiest and most comfortable. I truly love spending time with animals and will treat your pets with the same care and attention I would give my own. Whether your dog loves long walks and playtime or your cat would rather curl up and relax, I’m happy to give them the kind of care they’re used to while you’re away. I am currently attending Western university full-time. I have lots of breaks in my schedule throughout the week so I would love to come entertain your pet in those breaks! I would also be happy to visit before my classes start in the morning or after they are finsihed in the afternoon/evening! I will always make your pet’s safety and comfort my priority while following their usual routine and any instructions you provide. When caring for pets in your home, I will treat your space with respect, follow all house rules, and respect your privacy. I’ll make sure your pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, and care while you’re away.
“Walter showed up promptly to meet Stryker and we made arrangements for 3 walks while we were on vacation. He showed up, sent pictures and a map of their walk. Put my mind at ease while away that he was getting exercise. Would definitely recommend Walter to anyone looking for pet care. Very satisfied.”

About: I have a cat at home, and I also have six years of experience helping take care of my sister’s three Huskies. Altogether, I bring extensive pet care experience and a genuine love for animals. I truly enjoy every moment with them — from fun, energetic walks to calm, cozy cuddle time. I’m currently working part-time, so I can easily adjust to your pet’s needs. Whether it’s early-morning walks, midday check-ins, or cozy evening visits, I’m flexible with your routine to keep your furry friend happy and well cared for. I keep your pet safe and comfy, whether at my place or yours. I follow your care routine closely and make sure they feel loved and secure.

About: I’ve always loved being around dogs and genuinely enjoy spending time outdoors with them. I’m active, responsible, and dependable, and I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. I’ll make sure your dog gets plenty of exercise, attention, and care while keeping them safe and happy. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes and energy levels, and I’m happy to follow any routines or special instructions you have. I’ll treat your dog like they’re my own! I’m currently a student at Western University and have a flexible class schedule, which gives me plenty of time throughout the week for dog walking and pet care. I’m available most mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s regular routine. I also have several days with large breaks between classes, making daytime walks easy to accommodate. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I’ll follow any instructions you provide regarding walking routes, routines, behaviour, or special needs. During walks, I’ll keep a safe distance from other dogs unless you tell me otherwise, as I understand that not every dog is comfortable around other pets and we can’t always predict how another dog will react. I’m responsible, attentive, and will make sure your dog gets plenty of exercise and attention while always keeping their safety first.
About: As a child, my family always had a cat. I've been curious to own a dog for many years, and was finally able to as an adult. I have less than 10 years experience with dogs, about 7 years total. The first dog I cared for was a foster dog, who was in my care for a year. Shortly after that, I got a dog of my own. Both dogs were large breeds, so I am comfortable with this size, as well as smaller dogs. With both of these dogs, I also had a pet cat. Currently I have a 17 yr old cat who I adopted when he was 9 yrs old. His name is Notorious C.A.T.. 😻 He has many health concerns, and I have become used to administering meds for him. At the moment I have an extremely flexible schedule and am able to help with in-home cat or dog sitting visits, as well as dog walking. There are a few regular commitments in my schedule, and I'm happy to work around these to help bring the care and attention that your pet needs in your absence. As a temporary guardian of your pets, I would like to have an understanding of their personality and needs. If they require specific attention, then I would like to have all the detailed information shared with me no matter how simple or small, be it grooming, feeding, toileting, or walking needs, or anything else that I would need to know in order to make sure your family pet is cared for properly. Some pets take time to warm up to new people, others have anxiety or reactivity. No matter what the needs are, I will do my best to help your pet feel comfort and safe!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - London
Sadie is a wonderful person sitter. She was responsive, flexible, and easy to work with. Her communication was excellent—she sent photos and updates along the way, which I really appreciated. Most importantly, she was amazing with my beloved pup. She is responsible, thoughtful, and clearly takes her role seriously while also genuinely enjoying spending time with the dogs in her care. I would feel so happy and comfortable having her look after my dog again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring dog walker or pet sitter.

Alexis and Lucas are lovely. Nari hasn’t met a lot of men in her life and was quite nervous at first but Lucas spent a lot of time getting her used to him, and by visit three, she was racing up to him and dropping for belly rubs. They take care to bring water for them for walks, and generally are great caretakers. Alexis is very gentle and kind!

Brian has been so kind and caring with my senior dog. He is patient, attentive, and clearly great with animals. He also took the time to listen carefully to my requests and made me feel comfortable that he would handle my dog with extra care, which I really appreciated. He is kind and respectful in all interactions with my family, as well. I've used him for several walks now and will happily book with him again. He made things smooth and communicates clearly. I highly recommend Brian!!

Aida was so sweet and understandable with my schedule. She was able to accommodate with the time requested and certain detail of Bella. Bella absolutely loved the time with Aida. As she came back very calmed and relaxed. She is effective communicator and glad thay Bella felt safe. Will definitely recommend and will be rebooking for future walks 😊

Amanda did such a great job with Brady! He’s usually pretty hesitant with new dog walkers at first, but whatever Amanda did made him feel completely comfortable and at ease right away. She was patient, attentive, and clearly took the time to build trust with him. Not only did she handle him wonderfully, but she also gave him a great walk that left him happy, relaxed, and well-exercised afterward. It’s obvious that Amanda genuinely cares about the dogs she works with and goes above and beyond to make sure they feel safe and loved. Brady absolutely loved his time with her and can’t wait to see Amanda again soon!
Fiona is wonderful, she’s reliable and great with my dog, and in addition to dog walking Fiona has taken good care of my home and my cat and dog while I was out of town. My animals are excited to see her, and I’m grateful for her services, it has been incredibly helpful!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in London is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $33 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 562 sitters on Rover for Dog Walking in London. About 82% of London 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 London. 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 London 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 London 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 London 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!
