“She was absolutely amazing! 🥰 So sweet, caring, and attentive with my dog. She kept in touch throughout the walk and sent lots of adorable pictures, which I really appreciated and loved seeing. It was clear she genuinely cared and made sure my pup was happy and comfortable. Super reliable, friendly, and easy to communicate with. I had such a great experience and would 100% book with her again. Highly recommend! 🐾💕”
About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover with over 30 years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. Pets have always been an important part of my life, and I treat them like family members. I joined Rover because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and want to provide reliable, compassionate care when their owners can't be there. I have experience caring for pets of all ages, including senior pets, and I'm comfortable administering medications and following detailed care instructions. I also have experience with shy and anxious pets and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and earning an animal's trust. Every pet is unique, and I take the time to provide care that matches their individual personality and needs. As a mature, responsible professional, I understand how important trust and communication are. I'll treat your pet as if they were my own and keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident they're happy, safe, and well cared for. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! Caring for animals has always been a part of my daily routine. I currently care for my own senior cat and understand the importance of consistency, reliability, and attention to detail when it comes to pet care. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate walks and drop-in visits throughout the week. When caring for a client's pet, I make it a priority to follow their routine as closely as possible and provide the attention, exercise, companionship, and care their pet needs. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so pet care is something I look forward to rather than simply another task on my schedule. I believe pets are happiest when their normal routine is maintained, so I take the time to learn each pet's individual needs and preferences. During drop-in visits, I'll ensure your pet has fresh food and water, potty breaks as needed, playtime, companionship, and plenty of affection. For cats, I'll also scoop litter boxes and keep their area clean and comfortable. For dogs, I'll provide safe, enjoyable walks tailored to their age, energy level, and abilities. Whether your dog enjoys a brisk walk or a slower-paced stroll with lots of sniffing and exploring, I'll make sure they get the exercise and attention they need. I treat every pet as if they were my own and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
“Gretta is very excited when she sees Kianna’s car drive up. Kianna is a very caring dog walker and is very patient with G when she puts on the snow suit for colder weather.”
“Ella is a great walking companion for our husky Sulley! She was there when we needed some extra help in a pinch and it helps that she's right in our neighbourhood! Ella definitely has a love for animals and I would definitely book her services again!”
“Andrea is prompt and professional, you can rest easy knowing that she will be there for you and your pet on time as agreed upon. Andrea was responsive during messaging, and is really good with dogs. I would not hesitate to have her care for my Ripley again.”
“My dogs get so excited when Sam shows up to take them for a walk - I'm thinking they like her more than me. She's a very nice person, she's responsible, and you can tell she loves animals.”
“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.”
“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.”
“Madalynn is so awesome! She's communicative, takes care of my boy as if he were her own, and she is incredibly accommodating. I would highly recommend her for your pet care needs!”

“Sarah-Beth is excellent and reliable. She used to walk my dog back in 2019 and we just reconnected again in 2024. My dog remembered her right away and was happy to see her! My puppy is reactive around dogs and Sarah-Beth handles if very well. He comes home happy and calm.”
About: I’ve had dogs in my house since I was very little. I’ve had puppies all the way up to our current senior dogs, one who is losing his vision and hearing. I enjoy walking and will treat your dog as my own. I work from home part time on a very limited/flexible schedule and have plenty of time to dedicate to your furry companion. I look forward to scheduling with you on a regular basis to fit your needs. Our dogs are given the best treatment. We train tricks and routines and remove bad behaviours only through positive reinforcement. One of our current dogs is a rescue dog and we have supported her in this manner.

About: As a 25 year-old animal lover, my pet care experience spans several years and encompasses a variety of responsibilities and interactions with different types of animals. I have grown up with pets in my household, providing me with invaluable hands-on experience in feeding, grooming, and exercising them. I currently work a flexible part-time job, which leaves me with plenty of availability for dog walks and pet care. My schedule allows me to accommodate a variety of walk times and drop-in visits throughout the week, and I am often able to be flexible to meet your pet's needs. As a provider of pet care services, ensuring safety, trust, and a positive environment is paramount in both my home and my clients' homes. 1. Safety: I prioritize the safety of pets by conducting thorough assessments of the environment to identify and eliminate potential hazards. This includes securing dangerous items, ensuring secure fencing or containment areas, and removing toxic substances from reach. I also maintain a keen eye on the pet's behavior and surroundings to prevent accidents or injuries. 2. Trust: Building trust with pets is essential for their well-being. I take the time to establish a bond with each animal through patient and compassionate interactions. This involves respecting their boundaries, providing consistency in care routines, and using positive reinforcement techniques to reinforce good behavior. By earning the trust of pets, I can ensure they feel comfortable and secure in my care. 3. Environment: Creating a positive environment is key to promoting the physical and emotional health of pets. I strive to maintain a clean, organized, and stimulating environment that meets the needs of each individual animal. This includes providing appropriate bedding, toys, and enrichment activities, as well as maintaining a regular feeding and exercise schedule. Additionally, I consider factors such as temperature control, ventilation, and noise levels to ensure pets are comfortable and relaxed. Overall, my approach to pet care focuses on fostering a safe, trusting, and enriching environment where pets can thrive and receive the attention and care they deserve.

The average cost for Dog Walking in Maple Ridge on Rover is $18.87 per walk (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

There are 1,131 sitters on Rover for Dog Walking in Maple Ridge. About 85% of Maple Ridge 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 Maple Ridge. 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 dog’s 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 Maple Ridge.
Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s 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 Maple Ridge 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.
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 Maple Ridge 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:
- 98% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
