About: I’ve had pets all my life, I’ve had dogs and cats and guinea pigs. I love taking my dog, Bailey for pond walks, and she’d love doggy company. I work full time, but work from home on Fridays and I’m home on the weekends. I’m available for boarding, and daycare from Friday to Sunday, or evening and weekend dog walks. I have a secure fenced yard, and live beside a pond, so walks are easy. I have one dog, a cavalier King Charles spaniel, who’s the sweetest girl. Your dog(s) would be well taken care of.
“Amazing care! My girl came home happy and tired, which is exactly what we needed. She sent lots of photos and communicated well. Looking forward to using Sandra’s services again.”
“Carla was absolutely wonderful with our 9 week-old Bernese Mountain pup! Working from home has been a challenge - trying to work efficiently and finding the time for play, potty breaks and naps. Carla was very accommodating and was able to spend a few hours with our pup in the comfort of our own home. Our pup loved her and we will certainly use her services again!”

Currently not working till September but will be driving bus for the school year. I will have mid day, evenings and weekends available to care for animals.

About: Greetings! I am a retired stay at home grandma. I have owned Shih-Tzu for25+ years. After having lost two, Molly to kidney issues and Buddy at 16, Oliver(5) is now my companion. I would love for him to have friends over to play ☺️ He needs some friendly company❤️ As I am retired, I do not work out of my home. On occasion my grand daughters (7/8) or grandson (9) come over, and they love pets. I go for long walks with my own dog most days, so pet sitting/walking fits my life style very well. I have a townhouse with a deck and patio, opening onto a green space. I am located across from a large grassed field and walking paths leading to parks and wetlands. My home is well kept and your pet will have a good combination of rest/activity in a safe and fun environment.
About: I’ve grown up with pets my whole life and have been trusted to care for dogs (and cats) for about six years. I’m comfortable with all kinds of dogs and make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and well cared for! I genuinely love animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time during my days off to take care of your pets! I can also possibly be flexible about different days of the week, so let me know! I will follow your routines and requests, and pay close attention to each dog’s needs and behaviour. I’m communicative and make sure every walk or visit is fun and secure.
About: I was born and raised on a mixed farm in Southern Saskatchewan. While growing up, I was surrounded by farm cats and dogs. However, my residence doesn’t allow pets in the house. When I came across Rover, I thought it would be a great opportunity to interact and be around animals. I am trustworthy, punctual and energetic! I enjoy walking and biking around my neighbourhood. I am an animal bioscience graduate with volunteer experience at a veterinary clinic. While working at the clinic I have taken care of clients cats and various sized dogs. Tasks would include helping the technicians restrain the pet while they receive a vaccine, cleaning poop in the kennels, feeding and watering the animals, going for walks when needed and always petting them when given the chance. I look forward to taking care of your pet.
“Tracie is an absolute gem! She is so kind and truly loves animals! She made us feel super comfortable leaving our fur babies in her care! She is super responsive, so communicative, so thoughtful and helpful and truly so caring! We are so blessed to have her in walking our pups. If you are looking for someone who actually cares and is a wonderful person- Tracie is someone I would fully recommend!”
About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is the level of patience, empathy, and genuine connection I build with every animal in my care. I don’t just follow routines, I learn each pet’s personality, comforts, and quirks to make sure they feel safe, seen, and loved. From gentle encouragement for shy companions to playful engagement for energetic ones, I tailor every moment to their needs. I believe the best pet care combines trust, communication, and heartfelt attention, giving owners peace of mind and pets a home-away-from-home experience filled with comfort, joy, and understanding. I am currently available on both weekdays and weekends for any of the services listed, and I’m happy to accommodate your schedule — whether it’s early mornings, evenings, or last-minute needs. Flexibility and reliability are at the heart of my service, so you can count on me to be there whenever your pet needs care and attention. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow their established routines, respect their space, and make sure they always feel comfortable and secure. I prioritize clean, calm environments and pay close attention to each pet’s cues, needs, and safety, from double checking doors and gates to ensuring they have fresh water, proper feeding, and plenty of affection and enrichment. I also maintain clear communication with pet parents, providing updates and photos so you can feel confident and connected while you're away
“Etienne is awesome, he took care very well of Koa and Oliver. They were so happy after the walk. You can see that he loves dogs and understand them very much. Next time we come to Tofino we will definitely book him again.”
“Olga has been looking after my 1yr old Golden on a daily basis during the work week. She is always enthusiastic about their time together and she has great communication skills. I’m lucky to have her help!”
About: I have a genuine love for animals and take great pride in caring for them. I am experienced in looking after dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs that need extra patience and attention. I also enjoy caring for cats and birds, including baby birds that require gentle handling and special care. I am responsible, compassionate, and dedicated to ensuring every animal feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Pet care is a regular part of my routine. Every day, I make time for feeding, cleaning, exercise, playtime, and ensuring pets are comfortable, healthy, and receiving the attention they need. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow their routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and keeping living areas clean. I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 10 years old and have never gone without having one by my side, so looking after them feels completely natural to me. While I was away at university, I even fostered a couple of dogs because I missed having that companionship so much it was incredibly rewarding to give them love and stability while they waited for their forever homes. I’m comfortable with a range of needs, from energetic puppies who benefit from consistent routines and basic training, to senior dogs who need a gentler, more attentive approach. What sets me apart is the genuine connection I build with every dog I care for as I treat them like my own. Recently, I lost my two dogs, and while I’m not quite ready to bring a new puppy into my home, caring for others’ pets feels like the perfect way to keep sharing that love, attention, and companionship that dogs deserve. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I make it a priority in my day. I’m currently working part-time with a chiropractic internship from Monday to Thursday, which still leaves me with plenty of time and energy to give your dog the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. I’m available on weekdays after 4pm as well as on weekends, making it easy for me to accommodate walks, playtime, feeding schedules, or overnight care. I’m reliable, flexible, and committed to making sure your pet feels happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home. At my place, I have a fully fenced yard for secure outdoor time and supervised play. There is also one friendly 2-year-old Havanese (my parents’ dog), so I’m mindful of introductions and always make sure all dogs feel comfortable and safe. I can easily crate your dog if that’s part of their routine, or they’re welcome to have free roam of the house if preferred. In a client’s home, I respect your space and follow your pet’s usual schedule as closely as possible to keep things consistent and stress-free. My goal is always to create a trustworthy, secure environment where your pet feels relaxed, cared for, and right at home.

“We are very grateful to finally have met Lucinda. Our 4 year old Labradoodle can be nervous and quite sensitive. However, Lucinda went above and beyond to make sure Daisy was comfortable before and during her walks. She even stopped by the day before the first scheduled walk to ensure that Daisy could get to know her better. Lucinda is the most conscientious and trustworthy dog walker, and we are very appreciative to have her help!”
“Melissa is just wonderful. Ranger just loves her and in fact waits for her by the door. She is on time and is lovely to deal with. Thank you Melissa for taking such good care of Ranger.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Okotoks on Rover is $21.09 per walk (as of September 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 1,858 sitters on Rover for Dog Walking in Okotoks. About 86% of Okotoks 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 Okotoks. 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 Okotoks.
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 Okotoks 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 Okotoks 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:

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.
