“Emily has continued to be a constant and reliable caregiver for our dog Woody. She is always available and flexible to accommodate us. I feel like she loves woody like we do and she provides us with amazing feedback and suggestions on how to help Woody be the best boy possible. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with our dog. Emily is dedicated, insightful and caring. Thank you Emily !!!”


“Communication with Max was excellent. He is friendly and professional. During their first meeting, he immediately won my anxious dog over with his calm and gentle energy. It is evident that he has experience with dogs and his love for them shines. I am very satisfied with his services and will not hesitate to be a repeat customer.”

About: I come from Ecuador where having a dog as part of the family is very common - so as a dog-lover here in Port Colborne, I am happy to provide the wise loving care you want for your pup. I have a sweet female 2-year-old golden doodle who is totally part of my family. I’d welcome your dog, too - whether it’s for a walk, a day-long play date, or a sleep over. When caring for pets, I feed them, give them fresh water, walk or play with them, and clean up after them. I make sure they're comfortable and happy.
About: I've owned dogs my entire life and have pet-sat for friends, neighbours and family. I am able to accommodate puppies and senior animals. Brushing and bathing are negotiable. I do not groom. My schedule is flexible. I can normally accommodate you with a bit of notice. Usually, any time after 9:00 is fine. I'm currently on leave from home support work due to injury as my job requires heavy lifting. Unless your yard is fenced, I insist on leashing. The field behind my home is great for walks but not fenced. My big dog loves to play with dogs but she can be placed in a separate room. I have a pen for pups or small dogs. Your dog(s) will get cuddles and play. I have a quiet room for shy cats, but your cat(s) can socialize with my 2 cats. My animals are all fixed. I can take exotic pets in your enclosure. My pen will give ample room to guinea pigs or rabbits. I can't separate small pet genders so please confirm in advance or bring your own cage.

You can trust me with your furry family member providing a safe and happy time while they're under my care. I can accommodate to what suits you and your pet best.
About: I'll take your dog on a walk and I WILL take pretty pictures of your dog 😇 I've cared for not only my animals (who have lived to the ripe ages of 20+; I'm not shy with senior pets!) but have watched many friends' dogs and cats when they are out of town. DOCUMENTING Not only will I take care of your sweet dog but make sure to document it so you're there with us, every step of the way. I'm a professional photographer by trade, so some pretty pictures will most definitely be sent to you. THE SENIOR The life long care I have provided to my own pets into their senior years are some of my most treasured memories! Taking the extra time to go at a nice slow pace is no problem for me! Leave out their coziest sweater and I'll make sure those frail old bones are nice and toasty - no shivering on my watch! YOU'RE AWAY I will ensure your pet feels loved and cherished while you're away; as if it's you with them the whole time! I work from home, set my own hours and have a flexible schedule that can work around a walk or pee break! There is even time for a good ol' game of fetch! When I'm taking care of pets at my client's place, I stick to their routines and instructions as best as I can. I make sure their space is clean and safe, and I hang out with them to make sure they're happy and feel loved, even when their owners are away.

About: I’m an outdoorsy girl with a big heart for dogs and a love of adventure. Seeing them happy genuinely matters to me, and I’ll go the extra mile for a wagging tail—whether that’s a walk full of interesting sniffs, extra playtime, or quiet company. With so much nature around me, there’s plenty to explore. Sunny days or snowy ones, I’m happy to head outside when it’s safe, always keeping your dog’s comfort, routine, and energy level in mind. I treat animals like my own children. Your dog’s little quirks, favourite games, and need for reassurance matter to me, because I want them to feel loved and secure while you’re away. Spending time outdoors is already a part of my life, so walks, fresh air, and adventures fit naturally into my routine. When caring for a pet, I plan around their feeding times, bathroom breaks, exercise, and need for company. I make room for both the practical care and the little extras—playtime, cuddles, and time to settle in and feel comfortable. I care for pets like they’re my own children... with love, patience, and attention to the little things that help them feel safe. Before caring for them, I take time to learn their routines, preferences, and any special needs, so I can follow your instructions and keep things familiar. In your home, I respect your space and keep your pet’s usual routine, from meals and walks to litter care and favourite resting spots. In my home, I focus on helping them settle in comfortably, with introductions and time to explore at their own pace. Walks, playtime, and outdoor adventures are always suited to your pet and the weather, with plenty of rest and affection along the way. I’m also happy to share photos and updates so you can see how your loved one is doing.
About: Dogs have always been a part of my life. The dogs I watch, walk, and visit, become my family. I have experience with reactive dogs, dogs that have anxiety about thunder and fireworks, and dogs that have medical regimes. I am attuned to the need for dogs to be engaged through walks, play, and games, while also enjoying their rest. I am Pet First Aid Certified through St. John's Ambulance, with hands on training in dog CPR and other treatments. I look forward to introducing myself and meeting you and your dog(s) during a free meet and greet. My work allows for a flexible schedule throughout the week and weekends. I can be available for all of your pet care needs, regardless of timing. My elderly puppies need a predictable environment, so I prefer to stay at your home when caring for your pet(s). I will review your expectations regarding your home, the yard, and the immediate neighbourhood during our free meet and greet. I also offer additional services inside or outside of your home, if you are interested.
About: I have over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. Whether your dog needs an active neighborhood walk, routine feeding, or a quick potty drop-in while you are away, I prioritize their safety, comfort, and routine. I am patient with timid or senior dogs, comfortable following detailed instructions, and will always keep you updated with photos and detailed updates after every visit! I maintain a flexible weekly schedule, allowing me to easily accommodate midday dog walks and drop-in visits. I organize my availability in advance so I can provide reliable, on-time care for your pets when you need it most. I am available for morning, midday, and evening visits on select weekdays and weekends. When visiting your home, my priority is keeping your pets safe, happy, and relaxed in their familiar environment. I will follow your specific feeding, and care instructions, ensuring your home remains secure and clean after every visit. I provide detailed updates and photos so you can have total peace of mind while away.
About: I’ve spent the past few years helping care for dogs for friends, family, and people in my community. I genuinely love being around dogs and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy on their walks. I’m patient, attentive, and reliable, and I always follow each owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding routines, leash preferences, exercise needs, and any special care requests. I enjoy long walks, outdoor activity, and giving dogs plenty of attention and positive interaction. I’m comfortable with different energy levels and personalities, from playful dogs who love exercise to calmer dogs who prefer a slower pace. I also make communication a priority and can provide updates and photos during walks so owners feel confident their pets are in good hands. I currently have a flexible weekday schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting during most weekdays, including afternoons and evenings. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I make it a priority to be dependable, communicative, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs and routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, energy level, and any special instructions so they feel secure and well cared for. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and make sure pets have fresh water, attention, exercise, and a calm environment. During walks, I stay alert, use secure leashing practices, and avoid unsafe situations or overly crowded areas when needed. I’m patient, reliable, and attentive to animal behaviour, and I believe building trust with both pets and owners is important. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos for peace of mind while you’re away.
About: I’ve had animals all my life. From fish and hamsters, to cats and dogs. When I wasn’t caring for my own, I was always eager to support my friends, family, and neighbours to care for their most cherished family members. I have especially always had a soft spot for senior dogs. Most recently with my senior girl, I’ve become better versed in medical issues as well. I mainly work from home, a few odd days in office here and there, for the most part my days can be fairly flexible! I love going for walks and exploring and I love love love a companion! I have a fenced yard and I never let my dog out without me present. I also have a fairly organized home that’s free of potential hazards for dogs. My girl was mischievous and always found things I did not even know could be a hazard, over the 10 years she was here I became very aware of how to dog proof a home.

The average cost of Dog Walking in Port Colborne is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $32 per walk.

There are 397 sitters on Rover for Dog Walking in Port Colborne. About 84% of Port Colborne 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 Port Colborne. 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 Port Colborne 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 Port Colborne 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 Port Colborne 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!
