“Caroline was very communicative, came by for a meet and greet before our first walk, and took time to ask questions all about our pup’s preferences. In the walk day she sent update pictures and pup came home happy, and ready for a good afternoon nap.”

It is an essential service as my partner broke his back and I need to be in the office in the early am. 10/10 and will book again!”

“Sierra is a wonderful soul. It’s very clear she loves dogs and her passion for working with these magical creatures is evident. My dog Sammi and I suffered a major loss this year and I needed someone to help support me with Dog walking. I was apprehensive at fist than after meeting Sierra I was put a ease and felt safe and trusted her with Sammi. I give her 10 stars. I have already talked to my next door neighbours letting them know how awesome she is and I would highly recommend getting her.”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs, cats, and all kinds of pets, and caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I’ve been pet sitting for 8+ years for friends and family, from quick daily check-ins to staying for weeks at a time. I’m comfortable with all personalities and energy levels—from high-energy shepherds to sassy chihuahuas. As a former Canadian athlete, I love keeping dogs active with great walks, runs, and fun adventures while making sure they feel safe, loved, and happy. I also have experience with post operation pet care. I currently have a very open schedule, which means pet care can truly be my top priority. I’m available for flexible booking times and can easily adapt to your pet’s needs and routine. This allows me to give each pet plenty of attention, exercise, and care—whether that’s multiple walks a day, playtime, or simply keeping them company and comfortable. When caring for pets in a clients home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent as possible. I’m a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to pet care, so I follow all care instructions very closely making sure your pet is over cared for, triple checking every detail for your pets safety. I’m also very respectful of house rules, making sure everything is always clean and tidy. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners feel comfortable and informed while they’re away.

“This girl! Karen is mature enough to fully trust to care for two of the most important dogs in the world. The minute she walked in the door, I could see that Karen was a natural dog person. She was calm and didn't get the dogs all wound up with baby talk. Her voice with them was steady and assured. Dudley and Daisy obviously had a great time with her on their walk. They were tired and happy. Karen really is a joy!”

About: I've always grown up with animals, cats + dogs, and I truly understand the deep bond we share with our pets. I pride myself on providing a calm, safe, and loving environment for every animal I meet. Whether your pet needs long walks, gentle cuddles, or just a quiet presence to feel secure, I am highly attentive to their specific needs and daily routines. I currently work a hybrid schedule with flexible hours, balancing my part-time work and my own business. This allows me plenty of dedicated time to check in, walk, and play with your pets throughout the week. I am highly communicative and will always prioritize your pet's schedule and well-being! I am extremely detail-oriented, highly respectful of your space if I am sitting in your home, and always focus on maintaining a stress-free, regulated environment for your pets so they feel completely safe while you are away. My apartment is not pet friendly, so I love getting to enjoy staying somewhere that is!

About: I have always had a strong love for animals. My professional experience is limited but I have plenty of personal experience and as my place doesn’t allow me to have a doggo, I am looking to walk dogs in my spare time as I am very new to Rover I am very excited!! Note: I can help you with a variety of animals, not exclusive to dogs. I just finished my degree and am now have a job that allows me to work from home so my schedule is very flexible! I can accommodate dog walking, drop in visits & overnight care into my routine. My number one priority with animal care is to make sure they are always getting the attention and love they need. Building trust with animals is very important, and I do that by providing them with the best experience possible. I can handle bigger dogs as long as they aren’t very aggressive. Any other questions I am happy to answer.

About: Although I've never owned a dog myself, that's because I've always understood the level of time, commitment, and responsibility they deserve. I grew up around dogs, have lived with dogs for much of my life, and regularly care for my parents' two Toy Australian Shepherds whenever they're away. They're a mother and daughter duo with very different personalities and needs. The mother is a senior with hip issues who benefits from extra patience and mobility support, while her daughter has anxiety and does best with a calm, reassuring approach and a consistent routine. Being Toy Australian Shepherds, they're also incredibly intelligent and active, so I'm used to dogs that thrive on structure, engagement, and paying close attention to their individual needs. While I don't have experience with every unique medical or behavioural situation, I've been around a wide variety of dog personalities, energy levels, and temperaments. I pay close attention to canine body language, respect each dog's boundaries, and believe that building trust is far more important than forcing interactions. Whether I'm taking your dog for a walk, stopping by for a drop-in visit, spending the day with them, or caring for them overnight, I'll treat them with the same patience, attention, and respect I give the dogs in my own life. If your dog has a routine or needs I'm unfamiliar with, I'm always happy to do my research beforehand and carefully follow your instructions. My goal is to make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away! Right now I have a pretty open and flexible schedule, so I'm able to work around most pet care needs. Some mornings and around midday I'm busy babysitting my baby brother, but outside of that I have lots of availability for walks, drop ins, day visits, and overnight stays. I like planning ahead and making sure I have enough time to give each pet the attention they deserve instead of trying to rush from one booking to the next! I'll mostly be caring for pets in their own home because that's where they're usually the happiest and most comfortable. My goal is to keep their routine as normal as possible by following your instructions closely, respecting your home, and making sure your pet feels safe while you're away. In some cases I may be able to care for pets in my home, but it will depend on the pet. I live in a small one bedroom basement suite with my two senior cats, who are very sweet but also very timid. Because of that, I'd only consider pets that are calm, cat friendly, and comfortable in a quieter environment. No matter where I'm caring for your pet, I'll pay close attention to their behaviour, body language, and routine. I know every animal is different, and I think noticing the little things can make a big difference in helping them feel comfortable.

About: Hello there! My name is Kailyn and I am a very friendly, compassionate, enthusiastic, and self motivated individual who is a firm believer in giving back to the community and helping those in need in any way possible. I wake up every day wondering who will reach out to me next? Who will need my help? To help others is my mission. Help me help you! I am a fast responder and always eager to learn more to become a better pet parent. I totally understand what it’s like to have a busy schedule, so I am more than happy to help people balance their own when the need arises! I am reliable, meaning I will never leave the owner of a pet wondering if a sitter such as myself will ever arrive or not, and I am patient, knowing that an animal will not always act how you expect them to one hundred percent of the time. It does take a lot of patience and dedication. It is absolutely never a bad idea to get to know someone and their pet first before the owner feels they are comfortable leaving you with them. Making sure they’re a good fit! If you feel I am someone you wouldn’t mind looking after your furry friend, then please, feel free to contact me. I look forward to meeting you and your companion soon, and I hope you have yourself a wonderful day!

About: Hi! I’m Kehew. I’ve always had a major affinity for animals of all kinds. Having grown up surrounded by many different animals, my love for animals started at a very young age. My pet care knowledge is always growing, experiences are always happening, and memories are always being made. I love being a pet sitter/dog walker because it gives me the opportunity to meet and bond with so many new pets and their owners, enjoying all the different personalities of the client’s pets. It’s rewarding when a dog gets excited as they recognize me when I come around and I know I am doing my best. I will care for your fur babies as if they were my own while they are in my care. I enjoy making animals as well as their owners very happy! With me you are guaranteed a happy pet, a clean home and a job well done. When I have free time I enjoy going, hiking, swimming, traveling, spending time with my family, and volunteering in my community. I am available any day of the week for dog walks, pet sitting, and house visits. Let me know how I can be your next pet care professional. I always always make sure all gates, doors, fences are secured and leash the pet before we go outside for a walk. For dog walks I form a bond with the dog before bringing around other dogs in a social setting. Caring for pets in your home, I make sure I am introduced to the pet and we are on a comfortable level together before the owner leaves.

About: I have extensive experience with dogs in both my professional and personal life. With education in veterinary technology and hands-on work in a veterinary setting, I’m confident caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I’ve also provided dog care and house sitting for others, making sure every pup feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. As a lifelong dog lover, I understand how important routine, exercise, and affection are to their well-being. I’m experienced with feeding schedules, medication administration, walks, grooming, and recognizing small changes in behavior or appetite. Above all, I take pride in giving every dog I care for the attention and kindness they deserve. I'm currently a university student and only need to attend class tuesday and thursdays unless otherwise stated, so I have plenty of time to care for your pets! I'm a cat and dog mom to seniors and I love them with my whole heart. I understand the need for scheduling and attention pets of all life stages require on a daily basis. With previous experience in Veterinary Technology in a clinical setting, I am comfortable providing medications in any form, as well as handling pets of all sizes.

About: Hi! My name is Ashley, and I’m a 27-year-old Wildlife Biologist with a Bachelor of Science in Animal Behaviour. I’ve been around animals my entire life—dogs, cats, parrots, lizards, horses, capybaras, you name it! I’ve also worked as a zookeeper, giving me extensive hands-on experience caring for animals with a wide range of personalities, needs, and behaviours. I’m knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely passionate about animal welfare, and I would love the opportunity to care for your fur babies as if they were my own! I have both weekday and weekend availability to care for your furry friends. However, because of a knee injury I am not able to take dogs out on walks at the moment (sadly). I do not offer pet care in my own home as I am renting and my landlords do not allow any additional animals, but I am willing to travel to your home to look after your pets!

About: Hi, I'm Karlee! I'm a grad student who pretty much grew up taking care of a zoo and absolutely adores animals of all shapes and sizes -- furry, feathery, scaley, or hooved. Whether it's bottle feeding 7 kittens at one time, pulling porcupine quills, caring for a senior epileptic puppy mill dog, searching mountainsides for baby calves in a snowstorm, or providing first aid to alpacas, there isn't much I haven't seen or experienced. Now, onto how much I will love your pets (which is the most important part)! I have always had a lot of animals and had to leave many at home when I first came to Canada for university from the US in 2017. That inspired my love for dog walking and pet sitting, as it gave me an outlet to love everyone else's animals when I couldn't be with my own. I now have my own chickens, geckos, and two border collies, Buzz and Eddy. We are very active in the local dog sports community. This has continued to foster my love for animals and provide me with even further experience working with and around different types of dogs and their needs. I have also worked at a local structured boarding/daycare facility since 2024, where I have gained extensive experience caring for, managing, and fulfilling the needs of numerous dog breeds and personalities ranging from people/dog friendly dogs to human reactive and dog aggressive dogs. I can have a chill couch day with the calmest of them or provide enrichment, structure, and adventurous days for the busiest of minds. There isn't one animal I don't adore, and being a student who works remotely, I have a lot of flexibility and time to devote to them and a lot of extra love to give to them. It gives me something great to look forward to, and you the peace of mind when you're away from your best friend(s)! As I work from home, my schedule is extremely flexible to be able to cater to the needs of your pets, whether it be a drop-in visit or a walk. I own two high-energy working breed dogs and am used to spending lots of time both inside and outside training them and meeting their needs in many different ways, so I am thrilled to get to know your pet and what makes them happy and satisfied. Let's chat and we'll figure out a schedule that works for you and your pet! My goal is to keep your pet as happy and comfortable as possible while you're away and I will work with you to figure out the best way to do that -- whether I am picking your pup up for a walk and taking them to a local trailhead, taking them for a stroll around the neighborhood, playing fetch or practicing training in the yard, or giving your kitty or other four-legged friend some affection and play time.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Maple Ridge

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Maple Ridge is $26 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $36 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 4,844 sitters on Rover for Dog Walking in Maple Ridge. About 83% 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 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 Maple Ridge 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 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.

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 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!
