“Kassandra is a fabulous dog walker. She is very caring, trustworthy, kind, flexible and she loves dogs! Our dog Annie adores Kassandra and so do we! We are so fortunate to have found her.

About: I have an enormous love for dogs of all sizes, breeds and ages. I am well versed in medication dispensing, puppy training and most importantly, ear scratches and LOVE! I currently live on a 2.3 acre property with 1.5 acres fenced. Our two dogs, Pickles and Almond would love to have some new friends to play with. *** Please note: All dogs must be up to date with vaccinations and a meet and greet is required at least 2 days prior to care**** I am a work from home dog mom who depends on her four legged friends to provide company during the day. I am home all day so your loved pet will be too busy to even miss you! Pets are treated like family in my home. If I'm allowed on the couch than so are they! I do not crate our dogs at night - they like to sleep in my room.

About: I don't just see dog walking as simply taking a dog around the block. I see it as making them happy, enrichment, exercise and attention I am a set designer who works on contract. Right now I am between shows so I have my days and evenings free. Since I love being around dogs I thought dog walking would be an enjoyable activity with also helping out owners who don't have time to walk their pets and also just love the idea of making a dog smile that day and making them as happy as possible whether that's a long walk or just taking them for a quick rest stop outside :) I am offering dog walking services. I currently live in a condo right beside the Humber arboretum so your pup will get a beautiful walk/sniffs through the long path depending on their activity level. I always make sure to be respectful of the owners house and leave it as I came in. I will always take photos mid walk to send to you just for reassurance. My priority is to make sure the dog feels safe/comfortable and happy at all times. It makes me happy to know I am helping owners make sure their pup gets in daily exercise and is as happy as they can be!
About: Apart from having pets all my life, I’ve spent years rescuing animals in need. From cats to dogs to birds, you name it. Rest assured, your pet will be treated with the same love and patience I have for my own. I'm currently in between switching jobs hence timing will not be much of a problem. I'm available for pet sitting from 10 am to 8 pm throughout the week. My pet Freya, is mainly an indoor cat but is also leash trained for walks in the park she sometimes accompanies me on.

About: Ive lived with and cared for cats for over five years, and I currently have three of my own. I'm used to feeding schedules, special diets, litter care, and noticing when a pet is acting off. I've also looked after friends' pets, including overnight care for a cat and dog that needed extra patience at night. I'm calm, reliable, and good at following an owner's routine exactly. I treat your pet like my own. You'll get photo and text updates on every visit, so you're never wondering how they're doing. I follow your instructions closely, whether that's a special diet, a specific walk route, or a certain way of doing things. I'm also flexible with scheduling and easy to reach if plans change. I've set aside time for pet care around my work, so I can usually do walks and drop-ins during the day, plus evenings and weekends. Overnight stays work for me too. I'm a big believer in showing up when I say I will, and if anything changes, I'll tell you right away. Last-minute request? Message me, and I'll do my best to make it work. I come to you, so your pet gets to stay in their own space with their own bed, toys, and routine. That's usually the least stressful for them. I'll follow your instructions for food, walks, and little quirks, and I'll send you photos and updates so you can relax while you're away. I'm also happy to do a quick meet-and-greet first so we can all get comfortable
“Manuel was very professional. He arrived on time, even on short notice. We wanted to try and see if there was hope for our anxious dog to get comfortable being walked by someone other than us, and Manuel did a wonderful job! I will definitely book him again for more trial walks until our dog gets excited to see him. Thank you for your service!”
About: I've cared for animals since I was a kid. From early morning walks to baths and meals, I have pet-sat for neighbours, friends and family for many years. Most recently I boarded a pet pig. I'm currently working as a freelancer remotely from my home. I am available any day or time of the week and can give your pet the care and attention it deserves. I have a spacious house and tree-lined yard - so location and timing are flexible. I have a car and will come to your residence if needed.
About: Growing up we constantly had many different pets. May it be cats, dogs, birds or even fish. I love animals and the joy they bring, so as soon as I got my license I started a successful pet sitting business back home. Now that I have moved to Port Hope, I am looking to start back providing care and assistance to my fellow neighbors and their beloved animals. I am extremely patient and kind. I love all animals and if I am not familiar with a particular care process, I am happy to learn. I look forward to being able to provide my services to anyone who needs it. I do currently work 8.30 to 4.30 Monday to Friday but my work is on a hybrid model and I live close to work. I am willing to come and help before work, after work and even on my lunch breaks if needed. My weekends are very open and flexible as well. I currently rent and have 2 cats, so taking care of your pet in my home is possible but restricted. While taking care of pets in their home. I will abide by all house rules. I will visit your home and provide a minimum of 3 walks a day for drop ins, if I am housesitting then more care will be provided. I will also brush your pets and if you wish more grooming services, this can always be discussed.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Many sitters respond to requests in under an hour. Whether you are planning ahead for public holidays, need last-minute care, or same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once.
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 Palgrave. 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 Palgrave 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 Palgrave 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 Palgrave 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.
