About: I have been caring for dogs my entire life. I currently have a mixed-breed dog, a Pug, and a Husky, and previously cared for a Lhasa Apso.

About: Hi folks! 👋🏼 My name is Michaela. I’m a former vet med worker, a mama to a multi-pet household, and am a passionate animal rescue volunteer/foster. I’ve been involved with caring for animals in various settings for over a decade. I take pride in my ability to treat animals of all sorts with the utmost respect and love regardless of their history. It’s a top priority of mine to make sure each pet feels safe and comfortable when they’re with me! I believe it’s integral to take my time building a bond with them. Through both my academic and professional experiences, I’ve done additional behavioural training that provides me with more understanding and knowledge on how to make a safe space for both cats and dogs by reducing fear, stress, and anxiety. I have a keen passion for providing care to pets in their golden years and/or who have medical needs. If your pet requires medication to be administered - I’m your gal! If you and your pet are comfortable with it, I often try to sneak in a good nail trim or ear cleaning! Another bonus is that I love to take and send photos of your pet (if allowed) so you can see how they’re doing. 🐾 If you have any questions and/or are interested in booking, send me a message! I look forward to meeting you and your pet(s). - Fear Free certified - Rates are negotiable I currently have a flexible schedule now that I’ve returned to the area and am able to accommodate additional bookings and drop-ins for your pets! Let me know what particular needs are required, I’ll do everything I can to meet them. I have a sharp eye for minimizing potential dangers in various settings.
About: Hi! I’m Emily ☺️ I’ve raised two of my dogs from 5 and 8 weeks old, including one rescue at just 5 weeks, so I understand the patience, structure, and consistency puppies need. I’m comfortable with potty training routines, basic commands, crate training, and building good habits early on. I also have experience caring for multiple dogs at different ages (my oldest is 4), so I understand how to adjust care based on energy levels and individual personalities. We have a large yard where my dogs are trained to run safely, plus wooded trails right behind our home - perfect for supervised walks and outdoor enrichment. I love being active and outdoors, so your dog will get plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, and attention. Most importantly, I treat every dog like my own - with lots of love, patience, and cuddles. Your pup will be part of the family while they’re with me! 🐾 I currently have full availability - evenings and weekends included. I am open to multiple walks a day, or runs if preferred. Whatever your fur baby needs! I’m very comfortable with puppy routines, potty training, crate training, and reinforcing basic commands. I keep a structured but loving environment with plenty of supervision, playtime, and rest. I love being active, so your dog will get exercise, enrichment, and lots of attention. Of course, cuddles and downtime are just as important too! In a client’s home, I follow your dog’s normal schedule as closely as possible to keep them comfortable and stress-free. Whether that means sticking to feeding times, walk routines, crate use, or medication schedules, I’m attentive to details and committed to providing consistent, loving care.
About: I continue to operate a successful dog daycare boarding facility in the GTA that I started 20 years ago. I strive for a happy balanced pack ! I enjoy providing dogs with walks, care, overnight and also grooming! I have young kids at home but also active adult children , together we make sure our dogs always get lots of walk and playtime! I have an active home and give the dogs their own space when inside after all of their activity so they can rest in peace <3
“Michelle was great! I contacted her last minute and she was able to accommodate. I don’t trust just anyone with my dog, but I would certainly recommend Michelle and use her services again.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - North Bay
We were so happy with the care and attention Maxine gave to our girl, Izzy. She took the time to meet us before our booking, sent us updates and pictures while she was with her and tuckered her out which is exactly what we wanted for her! We will definitely be rebooking with Maxine the next time we’re in need of a sitter! Thank you, Maxine!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in North Bay is $24 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $29 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 30 sitters on Rover for Dog Walking in North Bay. About 67% of North Bay 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 North Bay. 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 North Bay 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 North Bay 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 North Bay 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!
