“Abby is great! We’ve booked her a few times for dog walks and will continue to as our schedules align. I appreciate how well she communicates and how quickly she always responds. It’s obvious to me how much she really cares and that it’s not just a job to her.”
“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.”
“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!”
“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!”

About: I am a dog mom to my little westie Mika and I’ll assure you that I’ll provide the same attentive care and compassion that I’d give to my little one. I love interacting with pets and I currently volunteer at an animal shelter. I’ll put your pet’s safety and needs first while ensuring they have an enjoyable and comfortable experience. I’ll keep you up to date with how the drop-in visit or dog walking went. Please let me know of any special needs and allergies that your dog may have. I look forward to meeting your lovely pets! I work day shifts or evening shifts sometimes so I will update my calendar often to show my current availabilities as my work schedule/shifts are not the same every month. I have one friendly 4 year-old dog and I take my dog to multiple walks especially on my days off and provide lots of love, cuddles, and play time. I pay attention to the food I give because of my dog’s allergies. Lastly, I make sure that my dog is also well fed and hydrated especially during long walks.

I enjoy going for walks greatly and find it more enjoyable when I have a pal to go with.
About: I have been taking care of friends pet for 8 years, it kind of fell onto my lap. I did it once for a friend and after that all my teacher friends asked me to watch their fur babies, I was the go to pet sitter in Cold Lake! Now I am in Edmonton and would love to keep it going! I am currently working part time and going to school, this means I am home every night and always have time and energy to play with your fur babies I live in a town house with my Cat blueberry and dog Charlie, I live with family and they help take care of my animals so I can go dog/ house sit!

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.
About: I’ve cared for dogs across a good range of sizes and breeds — small dogs growing up, then medium and large breeds of my own as an adult, plus years of sitting for friends’ dogs along the way. That’s what made me the sitter my friends called first, and it’s the same care I bring to every walk and drop-in now. I’m especially comfortable with senior dogs, moving at their pace, but love dogs of all ages :) I currently work part time, which gives me a lot of flexibility during the week. That flexibility means I can build pet care around your dog's schedule rather than squeezing visits into a rigid routine, so you get consistent, reliable timing for whatever service you book. Since I offer walks and drop-in visits rather than boarding, all care happens at your home and in your neighborhood. During a visit, I check in on your dog, refresh water if needed, and keep them leashed and secure for the walk or bathroom break. Before I leave, I double-check that doors and gates are locked exactly as I found them. I also follow your instructions closely — whether it’s a specific routine, feeding schedule, or how to handle your dog in certain situations — so both you and your dog feel safe and comfortable with me in your home.
“Sarah-Beth is excellent and reliable. She used to walk my dog back in 2019 and we just reconnected again in 2024. My dog remembered her right away and was happy to see her! My puppy is reactive around dogs and Sarah-Beth handles if very well. He comes home happy and calm.”
About: I am an all-around animal lover who has owned and/or cared for many different animals over the years, including dogs and cats from various backgrounds and of many different breeds and sizes. I’m comfortable with animals of all different personalities and energy levels. As a runner, I can also offer higher-energy dogs a faster-paced walk/run for some extra exercise! I am a university student that attends online classes. Studying at home gives me plenty of time to keep pets company, play with them, and take them for walks. I have a flexible schedule when it comes to fitting in pet care, walks, drop-in visits, etc, into my routine. I provide care in client’s homes. I require a meet and greet beforehand to get to know your pet, learn their routine, discuss care instructions, and to make sure they feel comfortable with me.

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.
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!
Michelle was amazing! She could help us with walking our two dogs on a very short notice while being away for the weekend. She stop by beforehand for a quick meet-and-greet. I loved receiving her feedback and pics after each walk. Our dogs loved her from the moment they met! Thank you so much!!

There are 1,133 sitters on Rover for Dog Walking in St. Albert. About 84% 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

- 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.
