“My Aunt and Uncle were looking after our dog while we were on vacation. Melanie walked our dog everyday while we were on vacation. I’ve never used a dog walking service before and Melanie was amazing. Very conscientious, wanting to know if our dog had any allergies. She gave us updates everyday on his walks. Our dog loved Melanie and looked forward to his daily walk. Thank you so much Melanie for treating our dog so well and making this such a good experience. Highly recommend Melanie’s services.”
“Sara was amazing! She walked our very energetic young dog when we left him with my in-laws over the holidays. They were very impressed with her ability to handle our hyper pup. She was very kind and friendly with him on walks, and the in-laws liked Sara a lot. Super grateful for her dog walking services!!”
About: Lifelong dog owner and passionate animal lover. Although I don't have professional pet care experience, I've cared for dogs for family, friends, and neighbours for years. I'm reliable, attentive, and committed to making sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved. I am currently working part-time/causal so I have plenty of time to play with your pups! I can stop by really anytime throughout the day unless stated others. I am also very flexible on weekends! For dog walks and drop-in visits, your pet's safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I understand that every dog has unique needs, so I ask owners to provide a written summary of their pet's routine, feeding schedule, walking preferences, commands, medications (if applicable), emergency contacts, and any special care instructions. This helps me provide consistent care and ensures your dog stays comfortable while you're away. During visits and walks, I will follow your instructions carefully, provide plenty of attention and exercise, ensure fresh water is available, and keep your dog safe at all times. As a lifelong dog owner, I know how important it is to maintain familiar routines and provide loving, reliable care you can trust.
“Meagan is fantastic. She is very communicative, provides helpful updates, and thoughtful. My dog Buddy is overjoyed when she comes by to walk him, and I feel at ease when she comes by. Thank you Meagan!”
“We have had Ireland walk our 8 yr old red lab a few days a week for the past few weeks now and I would highly recommend her! She is super friendly, communicative, and our dog loves her! She has now become a regular, and we're very grateful for her & she's helped us out immensely with our out of town schedules. 🙏 We chose her because her familiarity with labs, and it shows! Thank you!”

“So happy we found Eleni through Rover to help us walk Blue while we were on vacation. My Mother was staying with Blue at our place but had to leave for work in the mornings so was unable to walk Blue at his typical morning walk time. Eleni was flexible with timing and very responsive when we made last minute time changes. She kept me updated with how he was doing and the Rover cards we received each day with a picture of him and his walk route were awesome! Would definitely recommend Eleni for any type of Pet care.”
“Banushan is such an amazing dog walker and I would definitely be happy to have him back again. My dog immediately felt comfortable with him at the meet and greet. He arrived on time and walked my dog for at least the full 30 minutes, never cutting any walks short. He sent photos every day and his communication was excellent. Thanks for keeping my dog safe, happy and providing great exercise!”
About: As a first time dog parent, I chose doberman. I am confident to say that I can take care of any types of dog, as dobie is the 2nd greatest challenge breed. Not to mention their weak tricky gastric system, and also their delicate skin. I make sure she eat right each day, giving appropriate nutrients from the food. I cook fresh fish for breakfast with veggies. Fruits/egg yolks for afternoon snacks. I will make sure your pet get the same. Also I pet sitted a senior boxer in the past. I have quite flexible work schedule, and I stay home most of time. I walk my dog at least 2 times a day for 40 minutes each walk. I live in a house with a fenced backyard. My dog is very friendly and she will keep your pet as a company. Your pet will be surrounded by happy, warm and love energy.
The median cost per walk for dog walking in Newmarket is $20

I highly recommend Sarah to look after your beloved fur baby. My elderly mother was doggie sitting for me but unable to take Lola for walks. Sarah was accommodating, flexible and genuinely interested in providing Lola with lots of love and attention. Sarah's love for dogs is evident by her gentle approach. She interacts with patience and kindness. Will definately rebook Sarah next time I need the help.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Newmarket on Rover is $24.42 per walk (as of July 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 7,011 sitters on Rover for Dog Walking in Newmarket. About 85% of Newmarket 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 Newmarket. 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 Newmarket.
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 Newmarket 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 Newmarket 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:
- 83% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 88% 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.
