âLogan has walked our very active Vizsla twice now and does a great job with him. He practices skills on the leash with him and handles his energy very well! Itâs great to know my dog can get reliable exercise during the day with someone who cares so much about animals.â

âHeather 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.â

âLaura has been such a great help for our dog Nova. My partner and I work shift work and she was able to accommodate our fluctuating schedule and able to walk Nova for last minute schedule changes. I appreciate Laura's flexibility and would recommend her to anyone looking for a great dog walker/ pet sitter in London :)â


âOur sensitive senior dog loved Katie which won our trust and heart - we were so happy - she was punctual, met all commitments and treated our dog with kindness and respect. We highly recommend hiring Katie!!!â

âFiona is wonderful, sheâs 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 Iâm grateful for her services, it has been incredibly helpful!â

About: I've been an animal lover and advocate my whole life, growing up in a house full of pets-dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, turtles, and any other animals I could surround myself with! I worked in a pet store while in school and had the opportunity to learn about all kinds of animals, and meet and play with the animals that customers regularly brought in. Friends, family, and colleagues have consistently relied on me to look after their dogs and cats, particularly after becoming the resident dog-cat-plant-housesitter of my graduate school department over 10 years ago. I still regularly take on dog walking and animal feeding (including frogs and fish:) responsibilities, and I'm now broadening my services by joining Rover! I've taken care of dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds (Labs, Doodles, Huskies, Dachshunds), and I have several years of experience with senior dogs and cats as well. I'm comfortable and confident handling more fragile animals, as well as administering medications (I have experience with insulin, Cartrophen, and Librela injections; and oral medications and supplements). I'm happy to help with young pups and kittens too, including any training, crating, feeding routines you may have! My experience with them is only less than seniors because they grow up so fast:) I'll always respect the routines you have in place for your animals and take care of them as though they were my own. I love walking around the neighbourhood, and enjoy it even more when a sweet animal can join me! Spending time with your pet in your own home is a wonderful option that I welcome as well! I work full time and am primarily available for evening and weekend care, though I can be flexible with early mornings and special requests! I work fairly regularly 8am-4pm, Monday-Friday, though my schedule can be flexible, so I'll update my availability accordingly. I'm generally in the neighbourhood over the weekend and would love to walk or spend time playing with or taking care of your furbaby anytime Saturday-Sunday! Feel free to reach out for any particular requests and I'll do my best to accommodate:) I'll accommodate whichever walking, backyard, or indoor requests you have, both on and off leash, rain or shine!. And, I'll do whatever I can to ensure your pet feels cared for, supported, and loved while you're away:)
About: I specialize in caring for high-energy dogs who need more than just a walk. As the owner of a young, energetic American Labrador, Reni, I understand how important exercise, patience, enrichment, and mental stimulation are for dogs with lots of energy. Reni has taught me how to channel that energy in positive ways through training, enrichment activities, scent work, and engaging play. Iâve loved dogs my entire life and grew up with family dogs and other animals. I also have experience caring for neighboursâ pets and have developed hands-on experience with positive reinforcement and managing some dog reactivity through my own dog. Iâm patient, reliable, and passionate about helping high-energy dogs feel happy, fulfilled, and well cared for. I work an 8am-4pm schedule from home, allowing for some flexibility during the day and I can largely accomodate walks before and after work and on weekends. I strive to make your time away as stress free as possible for your pet. By following their regular routine and giving them plenty of attention, affection and excercise.
About: I have lots of experience caring for dogs and cats, as well as rabbits and gerbils! I have experience with reactive dogs. I seem to have a calming influence on them, and they respond well to me. I am a lover of all kinds of animals, and look forward to working with your furry companions. I am currently self employed in sewing and design. My schedule is very flexible and can accommodate short visits or house sitting when needed. Preference for dog walking and short visits in the Downtown London area. House sitting across London. During my visits I will feed, walk, and spend quality time with you pets. I will also clean up as needed, i.e. litter boxes and accidents.
About: Iâve loved animals for as long as I can remember! I grew up surrounded by dogs and cats through friends and family, and Iâve always enjoyed caring for them. I have a 10 y/o dog of my own, so Iâm 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 peopleâs pets. Whether your pet needs an energetic walk, some extra patience, or simply a little company and affection, Iâll treat them like theyâre 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. Iâm excited to use my free time doing something I genuinely enjoy while giving pets plenty of attention, exercise, and care. For now, Iâm 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: Iâve been taking care of my own dog for the past four years, so Iâm 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 Iâm happy to follow whatever routine your dog is used to and give them time to get comfortable with me. Iâm currently a graduate student, so my schedule depends a little on my classes. Iâm usually pretty flexible outside of class and can arrange my time around walks, drop-in visits, or pet sitting. Iâll only take a booking if I know I actually have enough time to take good care of your pet. Iâll follow the routine and instructions you give me, especially for things like feeding, walks, and anything your pet should or shouldnât do. I always keep dogs on leash outside and pay attention to how theyâre acting, especially in a new place or around other dogs. Iâm also happy to send you pictures and updates while youâre away.
âThis was my first time leaving my fur baby in someone elseâs care and even though it was just a walk, Tank seems very happy. She included pictures and communication was very good!! Will be booking with Mackenzie againđđžâ

About: Having begun walking neighborhood dogs as a teenager, I have plenty of experience. I am an avid researcher into positive training methods, and have wanted to work with dogs since I was a child. I currently work only a few hours a week in Retail, and volunteer at the humane society. I have taken and received certification for fear free handling of pets in the shelter environment- a transferable skill for kennelling In my off time, Iâm working with my own dog, who I have trained from puppyhood. I had my own reactive rescue lab from (his)ages 5-14, and raised two puppies since. The youngest is a 3yr gsd mix. My dog experience is focused mostly around large dogs and puppies. Up to 89lbs As to cats, I have raised two kittens. One lived to 9 before the cancer. One is still growing strong. Matt is my senior boy, whom I have had for 12 years now.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - London
Logan has walked our very active Vizsla twice now and does a great job with him. He practices skills on the leash with him and handles his energy very well! Itâs great to know my dog can get reliable exercise during the day with someone who cares so much about animals.

Alexis and Lucas are lovely. Nari hasnât 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!

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 đ

Amanda did such a great job with Brady! Heâs 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. Itâs 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 canât wait to see Amanda again soon!
Fiona is wonderful, sheâs 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 Iâm grateful for her services, it has been incredibly helpful!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in London on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 541 sitters on Rover for Dog Walking in London. About 84% of London sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether youâre 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 petâs 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 services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dogâs 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 London.
Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dogâs walk begins.
While Rover doesnât 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 youâd 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 Roverâs 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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
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 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!
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
