About: I’ve had the privilege of growing up at my family’s boarding kennel. I’ve worked with all breeds and behaviour types, I can say with confidence that I would be a great fit to care for your pets. I can work with your schedule and find solutions based on what is needed for your fur family. My work is flexible and would let me take time as needed to preform tasks such as house visits or walking. As a pet care professional I base my care on what the owner’s instructions are and the needs of the animals. For over night care, I would normally have your dog out 2-3 times per day with a walk once per day. For walking services, I have 30 minute and 1 hour walks, you can provide your own leash but I have slip leashes as well.
About: I have 6 years of pet care experience. I started when I moved up for university and began watching people's pets for extra cash for classes and found that I really enjoyed working with animals (and their owners too!). I've mostly worked with dogs and cats but I'm open to learning and working with other types of animals too! I'm currently working on a part-time basis, so I have plenty of availability to work around your schedule. I have access to a vehicle so I can come to you and be available at any time of day. I have a fenced-in yard with a high gate and access to different trails and parks in close proximity to my home. I am more than willing to care for pets where they are most comfortable, including at your home and take them for walks to familiar places for them.
“Maxine was fantastic walking our large breed dog Aries. She was patient with him and helped him to get comfortable on such a cold day. She shows a genuine level of care and kindness. I wouldn't hesitate to use her services again.”
About: Hi folks! 👋🏼 My name is Michaela. I’m a 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 nearly two decades. 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.

As a recent graduate from Nipissing University, I'm excited to start my career and find a fulfilling full-time role that aligns with my passion for working with dogs. Flexible and enthusiastic, I'm available for various shifts, whether morning, evening, or beyond, and I'm eager to dedicate time to providing exceptional care and companionship to canine friends Both works for me because, as my pervious experience i have taken care for pets on client's house.

“Sara is so good with Sadie! I know that Sadie is well taken care of when Sara takes her for her evening walks - she will always inform me on anything important and makes sure Sadie is happy when she leaves. Couldn’t recommend more :)”
About: Growing up, I always had dogs I was in charge of taking care of. At the peak of my experience, I was in charge of four dogs, simultaneously, where I groomed them, walked them, fed them, and insured their health/safety. Additionally, I have looked after the dogs of friends and family, as well as as grooming. Both dogs and cats have always been a big part of my life, and because I am no longer able to have pets after moving, I believe this would be an exceptional opportunity for me to spend some time doing something I love; helping animals. I am currently working part-time, while taking courses online, so I have a very flexible schedule to help the care for your pets. Later or earlier hours are better for me to ensure I am available every day, but I am usually available on weekdays around noon as well. How I care for your pets will greatly depend on both your needs, as well as your pets needs. My top priority is ensuring the safety and well-being of the animal, so although my practice is very case specific, I can ensure every decision I make will be in reflection to your pet’s safety.

About: I have grown up in a house full of animals my entire life. I previously worked at “DogGoneWalking” in Waterloo for just over a year! During my time at “DGW” I walked countless dogs of all shapes and sizes, provided transportation as a “Pet Taxi” and completed plenty of drop in visits! I am currently working part-time and trying to start my own Dog walking business! My schedule for walks and drop in visits is very open, I do work some mornings so preferred walk or visit time would be after 10:00 a.m! I have one 6 year old, medium size Norwegian Elkhound named Luna! She is very playful and LOVES other dogs, she was raised in a house of 4 dogs the first 5 years of her life and is always looking for new friends!

“Michelle was amazing she came by and met the dogs a few days before the first walk. She sent a photo of their walk ?. I will definitely ask Michelle to walk my 2 dogs again when I need help.”
About: Been around dogs for the majority of my life I have bred goldendoodles for five years. Experienced training puppies and also adult dogs. I also have experience with senior dogs. I also had senior dogs myself. I just retired from 35 years in the military so now I have time to pursue this since I do love being around dogs. I thought this would be a great opportunity. But a great way to spend some of my free time. I would prefer to go to the client's pets even if that means taking them out for a daily walk or making sure they’re OK and checking on them spend some time with them. Every dog likes a good belly rub or scratch or just a hug's home and looks after their pets even if that means taking them out for a daily walk or to make sure they’re OK and check on them to spend some time with them.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in North Bay 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 29 sitters on Rover for Dog Walking in North Bay. About 86% 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 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 North Bay.
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 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.
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 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!
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
