“Ivan and Niamh are lovely and sweet to Arlo. I feel lucky to have found them. I got a great feeling from the moment we met. They are great communicators and offered ways to reassure me that it would be okay, as I am new to Rover and was feeling a little anxious about it all. I will continue to use them for walking Arlo and would certainly use them for boarding too. Arlo is a happy boy when he is out walking with them :)”
“Mehri is an absolute gem! Midnight loved her immediately and was ready to give her kisses. Mehri took time to understand Midnight’s needs as well as what would make her most comfortable. She puts a lot of effort to make sure Midnight is comfortable with weather and routine. I would certainly recommend Mehri for your pets! I have booked Mehri for long-term dog walking and I couldn’t have made a better decision.”
“Our first walk with Marina went wonderful, totally hiccup free! She is patient and sweet with my dog and I am happy we have more walks booked in the future as Marina is trustworthy and kind. She is a great communicator and I look forward to seeing her relationship with my nervous pup grow.”
About: In just three hour-long walks, I will easily and playfully teach your pet (both a puppy and an adult dog) basic training commands: sit, lie down and give a paw Now I am studying for a second higher education and therefore have a fairly free schedule and a large amount of free time that I can spend with your pet I will very clearly follow all instructions and instructions regarding your pet and always monitor his safety and good mood no matter where we end up with him.
“Angela was absolutely wonderful with our beloved dog, Pisco. As an older gentleman, Pisco needs someone gentle and attentive, and Angela truly went above and beyond to care for him with patience and kindness. Her genuine compassion made a real difference in his well-being and ours.”
“We are incredibly thankful for Claire's exceptional care and support of our puppy. Our puppy absolutely adores Claire, and it's easy to see why. Claire has a wonderfully positive way of handling and taking care of our dog, making every walk and visit a joy. We highly recommend Claire to anyone in need of a reliable and loving dog walker.”
“Alex is a very nice person. Always punctual. Our dog took an immediate liking to him. He is taking our dog Bandit for long walks and provides photo updates. Bandit comes back happy and sleeps all afternoon. I definitely recommend Alex’s dog walking services!”
About: Hi! I’m Jo, a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I grew up in a pet-loving home surrounded by animals and have been the proud parent of my own cat for over 3 years. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member. That’s why I always provide pet care that’s not only reliable and professional - but warm, attentive, and tailored to your pet’s needs. Whether your dog loves long walks or your cat just needs a calm presence, I’m here to offer a safe, happy environment while you’re away. I have an academic background in both Communication and Biological Sciences, which has given me a deeper understanding of animal behavior, health, and the importance of clear, compassionate communication with pet parents. Whether it’s noticing subtle changes in a pet’s mood or making sure pet parents feel informed and reassured, I bring both scientific understanding and emotional awareness to every booking. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, playtime, litter and potty breaks, administering basic medications, and keeping you updated with photos and messages. Your pet’s well-being and comfort are my top priority. Let’s set up a meet & greet - I’d love to get to know you and your furry baby! I work as a care aide at a hospital, but my position is casual, which means I have the flexibility to build my own schedule. I only accept bookings on my days off, so when I’m with your pet, they’ll have my full attention. On my free days, I genuinely enjoy spending quiet time at home with my own cat, going for peaceful walks, or just unwinding with low-key activities - making pet sitting the perfect fit for me. I also have my own car and am happy to drive to your location for bookings. My boyfriend is also a pet sitter on Rover, and through him I’ve picked up lots of great tips on creating a comfortable, reliable experience for pets and their people. Together, we share a deep love for animals and understand how to provide a calm, safe environment. I’m happy to accommodate most needs - just let me know what works best for you and your pet! I currently offer drop-in visits, dog walking, and house sitting - no in-home boarding. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize safety, comfort, and respect. My experience working in private home care has taught me how to navigate someone’s space with professionalism, confidentiality, and care. I treat your home the same way I treat your pet - with mindfulness and attention to detail. I always follow instructions closely, maintain a calm environment, and make sure your pet feels secure and cared for in their familiar space. I also make a point to keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away.
About: With 10 years of pet care experience, I provide dependable, loving care for dogs and cats of all ages. I follow your pet’s routine, give them plenty of attention, and treat every animal like family. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, so I have plenty of time to give your pet the attention they deserve. I do my best to be flexible with scheduling and always make sure your pet gets lots of love, playtime, walks, and companionship while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and happiness are always my top priorities. I’ll carefully follow your instructions, keep their routine consistent, and make sure they feel comfortable and loved. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your pet is in caring hands.
“Robin has been wonderful with our mini golden retriever, Ernie. She’s friendly, flexible, and very responsive, which has made everything so easy. We really appreciate the detailed updates she shares on Ernie’s Rover card after each walk. It’s clear she genuinely cares and pays attention to how he’s doing. Best of all, Ernie absolutely adores her. He gets so excited when he sees her, and it gives us so much confidence knowing he’s in such good hands. We highly recommend Robin!”
About: I have 5–6 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, including senior dogs who need a little extra patience and attention. I recently helped care for my husband’s family dog, Cooper, as he entered his senior years; adjusting to slower walks, joint issues, and a more relaxed routine. That experience taught me how important it is to meet each dog exactly where they’re at. I’m comfortable with daily walks, feeding, basic grooming, playtime, and reinforcing simple training and good leash manners. I’m especially mindful of dogs who may be anxious, aging, or need a calmer approach. I work in the restaurant industry, which gives me a flexible schedule. Most days I don’t start until 4–5pm, so I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pet during the day! Safety and trust are my top priorities. I pay close attention to behavior, environment, and routine to make sure your pet feels comfortable and secure while in my care.

I make sure each dog’s routine is followed carefully — from feeding schedules and walks to any special instructions from their owner. I always keep a close eye on interactions between dogs to ensure everyone feels comfortable and happy. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I maintain their normal routines and respect their space, keeping everything just as the owner prefers.

Karli took great care of our dog Hansel and cat Mabel. She arrived on time and sent us a detailed update of their visit, and she took lots of great photos! We were able to relax knowing they were in good hands. We’d definitely hire Karli again and recommend her highly to others! Thanks Karli!!!
I couldn't be happier with my dog walker, Lana. She is incredibly punctual, friendly, and truly knows what she is doing. I feel completely at ease knowing she is working with my young pup, Samwise. She is not only trustworthy and kind, but she is also fantastic with him. I feel confident knowing he is in such capable hands of a very responsible and caring person.
Our first walk with Marina went wonderful, totally hiccup free! She is patient and sweet with my dog and I am happy we have more walks booked in the future as Marina is trustworthy and kind. She is a great communicator and I look forward to seeing her relationship with my nervous pup grow.
Farbod was fantastic! He was very kind, communicative, and responded quickly. Even though this was a last-minute booking, he was very flexible, which was a huge help. He took great care of our energetic Golden Retriever, Floki, during his walk. We’d definitely book with him again!
Robin has been wonderful with our mini golden retriever, Ernie. She’s friendly, flexible, and very responsive, which has made everything so easy. We really appreciate the detailed updates she shares on Ernie’s Rover card after each walk. It’s clear she genuinely cares and pays attention to how he’s doing. Best of all, Ernie absolutely adores her. He gets so excited when he sees her, and it gives us so much confidence knowing he’s in such good hands. We highly recommend Robin!
Celic was really great with Kira! Since day one, Kira was already happy and excited to go on her walk, and always came back happy. Celic was always on time and let me know how the walks went, I could tell Kira was already looking forward to the next walk. I was very comfortable with Celic taking care of Kira :)

The average cost for Dog Walking in North Vancouver on Rover is $27.75 per walk (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

There are 4,948 sitters on Rover for Dog Walking in North Vancouver. About 84% of North Vancouver 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 Vancouver. 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 Vancouver.
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 Vancouver 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 Vancouver 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:
- 85% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
