“Sebastian is a pleasant and conscientious young man. After only a few visits Foxy was excited to see him for daily walks. We appreciate that Sebastian was able to start on short notice.”
“Danika was amazing. We couldn’t have asked for better care for our dog while we were away. It gave us peace of mind knowing she was in such caring/attentive hands. Danika made sure she was fed, taken on her regular walks. We especially enjoyed receiving the many photos and updates. We highly recommend Danika to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and caring for their pet.”
About: I’ve been in love with cats for as long as I can remember, there has always been room for a cat in my home, I grew up with three cats. I have personal experience of taking care of my cats since I was ten years old. I’ll be happy to meet some new kitty friends. I’m working part-time, so I’ll have plenty of time to visit your kitty whenever suits their schedule. I usually have weekends free, and during the weekdays, I’m free after 2 pm.

About: * please complete your pet's profile and answer the questions below before submitting a booking request* We believe a tired dog is happy dog so your dog will taken on long walks (if they are physically able) and have off leash playtime in our large fenced backyard when boarding with us. We have pet gates to provide your pet with a quiet place if they need some quiet time to settle in. We will also make sure all pets are separated during feeding times. We have a 6 year old son, 2 dogs and a cat. Our dogs interact with other dogs regularly at dog parks and off leash beaches and love to play. We specialize in puppies and young dogs. We find that they fit into our lifestyle and match our dogs' temperaments. I work from home so I can accomodate most dog's routines. I rarely leave clients alone in my home. If I do need to be out of the home for more than 45 minutes I do discuss it with clients first. I have a large fenced backyard, baby gates to separate dogs during feeding times and I do not leave dogs together unsupervised. I also do not allow my child to interact with client's dogs unsupervised.

“Lidiane did a fantastic job with our dog Gracie. Gracie has separation anxiety but Lidiane made her calm and happy. She sent a lot of updates and pictures which made us feel better as well. Lidiane was always on time and even stayed longer to spend time with Gracie. She’s a very caring sitter and I trust her in my home and with my dog.”
About: I have always had cats and dogs growing up and have had to do the maintenance necessary on each of my animals. I have also owned small animals as well as am very knowledgeable on the proper husbandry required for most animals you would find at PetSmart. I currently work full time as a Developmental Service Worker. I am looking to make a schedule that fits around my full time hours. Weekends are ideal for me. I live in an apartment building with two rabbits that can be separated off into my bedroom no problem. I unfortunately do not have a back yard, however there’s a big open grassy area right behind my apartment building that would be great for when using the washroom. I do not smoke in my apartment so that will not be an issue either. I do not have any roommates and would be a great fit for dogs who prefer quieter spaces.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since the young age of 5. Since then I’ve changed litter, trained, walked, fed and all round cared for many animals for myself, friends and family. I’m currently only working part time so have a lot of time free. While my schedule varies in hours I feel time can always be made for animals. I think caring for animals in the homes they are used to is best as they are used to the environment and it’s a space they know and feel safe in.
About: Hello my name is Andy. I have 2 wonderful children under the age of 5 who love pets. We have a husky/boarder collie mix dog that can't get enough of other pets and a cat that isn't fased by anything. We have a fenced yard and love going for walks.

We look forward to meeting you and your furry friend :) thank you.

We highly recommend Danika to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and caring for their pet.
We like to be balanced in our reviews, but we only have good things to say about Miah. She walks our dog daily and is always on time. She is very prompt with communications, both with messaging and Rover Cards. She brings enthusiasm to every visit, no matter the weather. We couldn't be more pleased.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Sarnia on Rover is $17.76 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 53 sitters on Rover for Dog Walking in Sarnia. About 88% of Sarnia 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 Sarnia. 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 Sarnia.
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 Sarnia 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 Sarnia 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.
