“Judy was exceptional with our puppy, Shadow! She came right on time and gave him all the care and energy burn he needed. She also used some of her own time to show love to our other dog too, as well as cleaned our house pee pads when needed. It was our first time booking on rover and she definitely exceeded expectations. We will be booking with Judy moving forward!!”

About: Hello! Currently the owner of the cutiest cat named Elli, I grew up with a dog, and 3 bunnies. I have taken care of over 12 dogs and 2 cats, and have been the go to for my friend's and family member's furry friends while on vacation. I have experience with elderly/young/anxious animals and those that needed medication. Some quick facts: - I will love your pets as my own - I love exploring new places for long walks - Jackson Galaxy is my idol I am currently working as a freelancer from home and make my own schedule, so I'm available around the clock. Anytime is play time, and extra snuggles are a must. I live in a one bedroom apartment with my cat and am currently waiting for my cat to get more socialized before taking anyone here. However, I am comfortable to do house visits (no overnight stays), and will be happy to follow any special instructions you leave.
About: I have taken care of dogs starting with my puppy about 15 years ago. Kilo was a puppy rottweiler and I rescued him from a potential life of dog fighting. From that day on Kilo was my best friend and companion in everything from work, to school, and home. I learned a lot from my time with Kilo about proper training and pet care, as well as the patience it takes to be a caring sitter. After Kilo I helped my sisters with training and exercising their big dogs (Pitty, and Husky) as well as attending therapy dog training with my partners 2 dogs (Havanese). I am comfortable with administering oral and topical medications, and know about various training and developmental theories for dogs. I cannot wait to meet your and your pets! I am currently working freelance and I have a lot of free time to spend with your wonderful pets. When I do have a gig I am generally only out of the house for 5-6 hours max. I will follow all your routines and guidelines as stated, while also making sure to tire them out so they dont have any anxiety while you're gone.

I provide a safe, comfortable home environment with a fully fenced yard where dogs can enjoy supervised playtime and fresh air. I have a friendly 3-year-old toy poodle who is playful and used to being around other small dogs. Since I specialize in small dogs, I keep the environment calm and manageable and give each dog plenty of individual attention. I follow each owner’s instructions for feeding, walks, medication, sleeping arrangements, and crate routines. Dogs are always supervised during backyard play, and I can crate your dog if requested or if that is part of their normal routine.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - New Westminster
Allison is a great communicator. She responded quickly after we made our request and then kept the conversation going until we had worked out a schedule. We had a meet and greet before the first walk where we were able to share typical walking behaviours of our dog. Our dog is a leash puller with a pretty strong prey drive which did not deter Allison. Love that she introduced him to some new walking paths and experiences in our neighborhood. Totally love the report card and the photos after each walk.We will definitely book with Allison on the future.
Joey was wonderful! She was kind, professional, and took excellent care of my pets during her visit. I really appreciated the communication and updates. Knowing my pets were in such good hands made my time away so much less stressful. I would happily book with Joey again!
My dog Beso is very sensitive, anxious, and has a serious medical condition. As a dog mom, finding someone I completely trust isn't easy, but Gracie has been an absolute godsend. I have full confidence that Beso is in the very best hands with her. Gracie is incredibly attuned to Beso's needs and has excellent handling skills. She reinforces the training we're doing at home while making it fun and engaging for Beso. She's always on time, responds quickly to booking requests, sends thoughtful pupdates with lots of photos, and has been flawless with Beso's meals and medications. She's thorough, thoughtful, communicative, and genuinely cares. You can tell she absolutely loves what she does, and the dogs love her right back - Beso never wants to leave! Thank you, Gracie, for being the BEST walker and sitter we could ask for. I almost don't want to leave this review because I want to keep you all to ourselves! 😂 We love you! X
I’m so grateful to Ruth for how well she takes care of my fur baby Ruby. She’s very reliable and communicative and Ruby loved her from the moment they met. She has a very sweet and caring demeanour and you can tell that she has a true love for animals. I really appreciate all the photos of Ruby she sends that give me peace of mind knowing that she is happy and well cared for. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy dog sitter/walker!
Erin is a lifesaver! She came and visited Beans twice today even with our last minute notice which was so appreciated! She did such an amazing rover card for her with details and photo updates! She is very great at handling dogs and very knowledgeable. Highly recommend!
Jessica was lovely! She met my reactive dog a day before the scheduled walk to chat and get the keys to my apartment and I could tell that my little guy was going to be left in good hands. We talked about how she’s in the process of becoming a trainer so I was confident that she knew what she was doing with my small reactive dog. She followed the few instructions I left and provided me with adorable photos and a video of my little nugget. 10/10 recommend her and I’ll definitely be reaching out again for any future dog walking needs! Thank you again 🙏

FAQs for Dog Walking - New Westminster
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in New Westminster is $24 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $39 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 4,794 sitters on Rover for Dog Walking in New Westminster. About 83% of New Westminster 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 New Westminster. 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 New Westminster 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 New Westminster 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 New Westminster 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!
