“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!”
“Jessica did amazing job walking our dog, Kira, while I was out of town. She is such a caring and loving person! Jessica met us up ahead of booking to get familiar with Kira and talked to us to ensure that she got Kira’s needs right. She always responded to our messages promptly. While walking the dog, Jessica picked the routine per the weather/temperature and ensured Kira enjoyed the routine. She noted the details in the Rover Card after each walk. We appreciate Jessica’s help and love to recommend her to anyone needs help walking dogs!”
About: I love all animals and believe each one needs attention and care. I have cared for senior dogs with health issues such as blindness, deafness, and paralysis. I have cared for and trained puppies with walking, chewing and potty training. . I have a very flexible schedule currently that allows me to be available for dog sitting, walking, and drop ins. I usually reply within an hour. I always ask if we can do a meet and greet prior to watching the dog to be sure the dog is comfortable with me. I am very attentive to the pets needs such as affection and attention, space, playing, hunger, and health.
“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!”
“We had a meet and greet with Sarah today. She was very comfortable with our two large dogs who also really liked her. She was friendly and picked up on our dog’s personalities and needs very quickly. We look forward to creating a lasting relationship with her and our dogs going forward.”
“Hayley was so wonderful to work with when we needed help in a pinch. It was my first time using Rover and I’m glad to have found her. For three days straight she walked Ringo in the afternoons, was there on time, sent notifications and photos which made us feel very at ease. I highly recommend Hayley!”
“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.”
About: I've been retired for a year and have a deep - seated love for dogs. I now have ample free time to take care of them. My home features a large, enclosed backyard, providing a safe and spacious area for dogs to play and exercise. Even though my formal pet - sitting experience is just one year, my passion for dogs drives me to offer the best care, including walking, feeding, and lots of cuddles. Since I'm retired, my daily routine is flexible and centered around doggies care. Throughout the day, I make sure to have regular interactions. I'm available 7 days a week. At my home, safety is my top priority. The fenced - in backyard prevents any chance of escape, creating a secure play area. I regularly check for any potential hazards. Inside, I keep a clean and pet - friendly environment, free from toxic substances. I also have a well - maintained dog crate for times when your pet needs a safe, cozy space. And my two friendly dogs are great companions.
“Sofia has been walking our 1.5 year old standard poodle since November and I’d recommend her services without hesitation. Sofia is caring, reliable and responsive, and truly loves animals. Morty absolutely loves his walks with Sofia!”
“Ryan has been a great help with the pups! They live at a retirement home in the community with my father and the staff are often pulled away to attend to residence and not able to keep to the walk schedule. Ryan has been super helpful with stepping in on short notice and making sure the pups get in their walks!”
About: Hi, I’ve been a dog lover for as long as I can remember. I’ve had a dog for 5 years and I have petsitted/walked many of my friends’ dogs as they know how much I genuinely love caring for dogs. Just moved in nearby and am working part time so my schedule is pretty open. I look forward to making time for your furry companion. I will care for your dog as if it is my own. I have experience with puppies, temperamental dogs and bigger dogs. Let me know about your dogs specific needs to see if we’d be a good fit.
About: I love getting to know all pets. I am very good at reading animal body language and correctly gaging how to earn their love. My goal is to make you pets as comfortable as possible and achieving their trust is something I strive to do. I have experience with older dogs, cats, medication delivery, exotic pets (rabbits, birds, lizards). I am looking forward to meeting you and your pet 😊 I have a very flexible job which allows me to fit into your schedule. I do not mind meeting where you reside as to keep your pet as comfortable as possible I have a fenced in yard and a large apartment. I also have a cat and a dog who get along great with most pets.
“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!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Newmarket
We used their dog-walking services over the summer for our big Cane Corso mix, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! Our dog can be a little challenging with separation anxiety and pulling, but they handled him so well and were incredibly patient and professional. We would 100% recommend their services to anyone with a larger breed, especially if your dog needs a little extra patience and care!
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!!
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 $26.64 per walk (as of August 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 6,838 sitters on Rover for Dog Walking in Newmarket. About 86% 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
- 87% 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.
