“Michael is a very friendly and happy go lucky gentleman. He genuinely enjoys spending time with the pups and ensures they are having the best times as well. I highly recommend Michael to care for you animals.”
“Jenna was so accommodating and let me know she was able to walk Levi last minute. She was a huge help for us! We got pictures and a note on how he did during the walk, it was great. He seemed very happy and tired out when done with his long walk, just what he needed. Will definitely book with Jenna again!”
“Maria was great! Millie took to her right away and I have no doubt they will be fast friends. She was kind, punctual and professional. I would recommend her to anyone needing a Rover!”
“Dylan C was excellent , my dogs liked Dylan when they had a meet and greet in the afternoon. On the 3rd booking day we were home early and Dylan came over and briskly walked Harley anyway, even though we were home. We appreciated that because we were tired from the long drive we had. Thank You Dylan, when we need to book a dog walker again we will be hiring Dylan.”
“We have been looking for a "baby" sitter for a while now, interviewed a couple off of Rovee app, but as SOON as Alana walked in, we both knew she was it. She was so chill, the dogs didn't bark when she came in. She spent over an hour with us, having coffee and getting to know the dogs at our meet n' greet. We primarily reached out to her to dog sit for us to go away. To be sure it was a good fit, I booked a couple of drop in visits and the dogs happily greeted her and went with her on a walk. Both of our dogs have dog aggression, one because of fear and one because of play. She took pictures the whole way through and handled them so well, which was really awesome. Alana is our girl!”
About: Hello, I’m Ren! I’ve had a soft spot for animals since I was little, and I absolutely love taking care of them! I have personally owned 4 large breed dogs, 3 small breed dogs, and 6 cats (at once!). I’ve had experience with senior animals, puppies/kittens, diabetic animals, and animals with epilepsy. I am fully comfortable administering injectable and oral medications! I believe animals are one of life’s greatest treasures, and I’m delighted to meet new furry friends! For over-night house sitting more than 2 days I need; -a bed/couch to sleep on -access to a shower (I will bring my own hygiene supplies) -I can supply my own food 🍜but I will need access to a kettle & microwave. All dishes used will be washed afterwards😸 -wifi passcode I’m currently out of school and have a lot of free time on my hands! What better way to fill the week then spending time with dogs & cats😸 I treat animals with respect, love, and proper care. Any pet I watch will be treated with lots of affection and enthusiasm! I enjoy going for walks greatly and find it more enjoyable when I have a pal to go with.
About: Dogs in my home are like family so if you trust me with your best friend I promise to offer your dog genuine love and years of hands-on experience caring for dogs - big and small. Your dog will get plenty of exercise and personalized attention in a loving, safe, happy environment. I will respect and adhere to all specific dietary and any other need of your dog. I like to walk and be outdoors with animals. I registered with Rover in 2024 but didn't accept dog sitting duties at the time due to work commitments. I am now retired so my schedule is fairly flexible and I can typically adapt to meet your needs. I have a fenced backyard, plenty of nearby walking trails, and a dog park. Pets are encouraged to feel at home and sit on the furniture with a big cozy blanket. I understand every dog has different needs so I'll listen carefully about your dog's needs to help you and your pet feel comfortable. I'll be happy to connect with you digitally as required.
“Excellent- felt super comfortable with her walking my fur baby. My dog is 80lbs, a strong puller, and dog reactive, and my dog came back happy and calm and had a good nap after.”
“Emily is an awesome dog walker! I fully trust her to pick up Zeus and drop him back home safe and sound while I'm at work. When I get home , Zeus is happy and tired, yay!!”
“Sarah has been so great handling our 3 big dogs and accommodating last minute requests. It’s such a relief having someone trustworthy to get our dogs out of the house on busy days.”

About: I have taken care of several peoples dogs over the years as well as had 3 adorable dogs of my own. I am very used to both chill dogs and high energy dogs. I currently work part time, usually quite early in the mornings so I am easily able to walk/check on pets during the morning, afternoons and evenings. I have done some pet sitting gigs for neighbours that were occasionally a full month at a time. I am able to think on my feet and provide good care to the pets.
About: I have grown up with large dogs my entire life and I have experienced with dogs as young as a few months old to seniors. I’m looking to walk and look after dogs in the Dovercourt area. I am a college student therefore my schedule is flexible and I am available during the day and weekends. At home I give my dog lots of love and attention and take him on at least two walks a day and provide whatever else he needs and requires.
About: I’ve taken care of pets my whole life from kittens and puppies to senior cats and senior dogs. I currently even have my own 3 year old German shepherd and trained him myself. I’m currently only working part time during the week and available all day on weekends so have plenty of time to care for your pets! I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment for every pet while caring for them in their own home. I follow all routines carefully, keep spaces clean and secure, give regular updates, and make sure pets feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away.

About: Friends and family have trusted me to pet sit their animals in their homes for many years. I have owned both cats and dogs since I was born and am an experienced animal lover. I have been trusted to give medications, feed, play, and walk dogs of all shapes and sizes. I worked as a Veterinary Assistant for several months, and am comfortable handling all types of cats and dogs. I used to volunteer at the SPCA and l love to be a safe space for all animals. I also am a foster for GEARS when I have the time and space. I am currently working full-time, but I am available for house sitting. On weekdays, your dog(s) would need to be comfortable being left alone for 4-8 hours. However, on weekends, I am fully available to spend time with your pets. I can also do drop-in visits in the mornings or evenings during the week and anytime on weekends, including dog walking. I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and engaging environment for pets, whether in my home or my client's home. For indoor activities, I provide toys and engage pets in playtime to keep them mentally stimulated. I also make sure they have cozy spaces to rest. I always maintain open communication with pet owners regarding your pet's well-being. When caring for pets in a client's home, I will adhere to their established routines to minimize stress. I ensure that feeding, exercise, and playtime are consistent with what they are used to. I respect the pet owner's house rules and preferences, and I will always leave your home clean and secure. I understand that every pet is unique, so I tailor my care to meet their individual needs, whether it's specific dietary requirements, medical needs, or just extra cuddles and attention. My goal is to provide a loving and attentive environment where pets feel happy and safe.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in St. Albert on Rover is $21.09 per walk (as of August 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 1,132 sitters on Rover for Dog Walking in St. Albert. About 85% of St. Albert 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 St. Albert. 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 St. Albert.
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 St. Albert 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 St. Albert 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:
- 98% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
