“We’ve had an great experience with our Jennifer. She is reliable and clearly love what they do. Aspen is happy and well-exercised after every walk. Communication is great, with helpful updates and photos that give peace of mind. It’s such a relief knowing our dog is in caring and capable hands—highly recommend!”
“Ali took our 16mo Labradoodle out for daily walks while she was staying with my parents while we were on holiday. Ali was very patient with Noodle, who is sometimes shy around new people. In no time, Noodle was waiting at the window for Ali to arrive, and she loved her daily adventures. Ali was very punctual and provided great updates to me via the app, including photos. Noodle is already looking forward to spending time with Ali at her house for doggy daycare and boarding!”
“Bonnie has been wonderful, I highly recommend her. She is great with our puppy, always timely and sends us full reports and pictures after every walk. Easy 5 stars ⭐️”
About: I have owned many dogs and cats throughout my entire life. I have helped friends, family, and neighbours with caring for their pets, including walking, feeding, bathing and grooming. I am available all day to care for any animals. I welcome any pets that want to stay overnight and spend time with my lovely corgi, Fergus! I live in a very walkable neighbourhood with many trails and paths, and have a very friendly fur baby to entertain and be great company for your pet! Fergus loves dogs and cats. I have lots of open space within the house for play and rest.
About: Dogs have been a big part of my life for the past 4–5 years, both personally and professionally. Working in the pet care industry has given me hands-on experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I understand the importance of maintaining routines, providing plenty of exercise and enrichment, and making sure each dog feels safe and loved while their family is away. Whether your pup enjoys long walks, playtime, or relaxing on the couch, I’ll provide attentive care tailored to their individual needs. I treat every dog as if they were my own and strive to make their time with me fun, comfortable, and stress-free. Pet care naturally fits into our daily routine, and your pet will receive plenty of love and attention throughout the day. I work outside the home during the day, while my husband works full-time from home, meaning there is almost always someone at the house to provide companionship, potty breaks, playtime, and supervision. We are available mornings, evenings, weekends, and holidays, and we are committed to maintaining your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and at ease. Providing a safe, loving, and stress-free environment is my top priority. My husband and I are both lifelong animal lovers, and together we have years of experience caring for dogs and cats. My husband has owned dogs his entire life and works from home full-time, so pets are rarely left alone and receive plenty of attention and companionship. We understand that every pet has unique needs and routines, and we will work closely with you to ensure those needs are met. Whether in our home or yours, we strive to create a calm, comfortable environment where your pet is treated like family.
“Norma was so good with Stevie. She built a really great rapprt with Stevie and encouraged her to sniff, roll, and socialize while they walked so Stevie came home happy and tired. Norma was also really patient with technical issues in the building and went above and beyond anything I could have hoped for. Thank you so much Norma ~ Stevie can't wait for your next visit! 😊”
About: With over 4 years of hands-on pet care experience, I’ve worked in both home and clinical environments—ranging from pet sitting through Rover to assisting veterinarians. My blend of professional and compassionate care ensures your pet feels safe, loved, and well looked after. Pet care is a core part of my weekly routine—I’ve been sitting through Rover since 2020 and actively make time for it alongside my other commitments. I’m highly organized and flexible, which allows me to reliably accommodate walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays. Whether it’s early mornings, evenings, or weekends, I’m committed to making sure every pet in my care gets the attention and consistency they need. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for pets in my client’s home or during walks, I stick to their established routines and make sure they’re comfortable and secure at all times. I treat every pet like family—with patience, attention, and lots of love.
About: I've had pets in my life for many years. I raised my Schnauzer from a puppy and had him for over 13 years. Now I have a 9-year-old American Shorthair cat, and I've had him since he was a kitten. So I've been there through different stages of their lives, and I understand that what they need can change as they get older. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I'm more than happy to play with them, keep them company, and give them lots of attention. If your dog loves being active, I'd also be happy to go for a run with them! As a pet owner myself, I know how much we worry about our pets when we're away. I'll follow their usual routine and your instructions, pay attention to how they're doing, and send you photos or videos so you know they're happy and doing well. My schedule is pretty flexible right now, so I have plenty of time for drop-in visits throughout the week and on weekends. I'm usually available from late morning through the evening, and I'm also happy to provide regular weekly care if your pet needs a familiar face around! I want every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. I'll follow their normal routine and your instructions, keep an eye on how they're doing, and always double-check doors and gates. I'll also respect their personality and give them all the time, space, play, or cuddles they need to feel at ease with me. And of course, I'll always respect your home and your privacy.
About: Lifetime dog Mom. We have boarded dogs from 1 night to 20 nights so far. We have had Mini and teacup poodles, Dachshunds, Goldens, Labs, Labradoodles, Bichons, Schnauzers and other mixed breeds. We have great relationships with all of our pet families. We are a family of four, my husband and I have been in Richmond for 27 years in the same home. We live in a bungalow with a fenced yard. Many furry guests have enjoyed lazing in the sun in our front window, on our backyard deck and have enjoyed going for long walks in our dog friendly, and walking through the conservation area alongside the Jock River. We have two grown sons - 21 and 25. We all work full time, and there’s always somebody home. We are all animal lovers. I grew up with a shepherd and a lab. Our family has had the love of Ruby, a beagle and the most fun with Freddie, our beloved Bichon-Poodle. We laid Freddie to rest in Sept 2021. Our home is open to doggie silliness and company. I’ve done pet and house sitting for friends and family for years. Our primary interest is in hosting low or non-shedding dogs. Doodles, poodles, schnauzers, dachshunds, GMD, you get the idea. We love small to medium breeds. But check with me because I do love them all and would be willing to try any breed. I like to arrange a meet and greet and have a trial stay before committing to a long term 1-2 week stay. Our family has taken many roads trips and brought our own dogs with us over many years, now we are avid campers/glampers (travel trailer) and, when our customers approve, we have taken some of our furry guests with us. We understand both your concerns and your needs for a worry free time away. We are ready to care for your pet and give you peace of mind while away. Please note that we may take dogs from 2 families at one time during busy seasons and are well set up to manage this. Our home is a relaxed space and we always make sure the furry guests are kept stress free. I work full-time (mostly remotely) - when I have to be in the office I make arrangements with my sons to help out with dog walking and check-ins. My days ebb and flow. I can take the time necessary to get up early with your dog and get them walked, fed and settled before I start my day. I often have breaks during the day and can take them out a couple of times per day as necessary. We also have a fenced yard and a dog door to our large deck and yard. My pet sitting style is to give dogs lots of play, attention, snuggly places to nap and enough love so they don’t miss you too much while you’re away - hoping you and your pet will be comfortable never stressed. I can care for your furry family members in my home or in yours. I know it helps dogs and cats feel less stressed when they can stay home, follow their routines and be in safe and familiar surroundings.
About: Dogs, cats, rabbits … I’ve cared for a variety of animals since I was young child. Mom of two kids who loves cuddles and going for walks. I have always had dogs and pets in my home, currently mom to two kids and one 11 year old cattle dog (think Bluey). Experience with puppies also! I am certified in first aid and CPR for your pets and have experience giving oral medication. Let me know if you have certain expectations for updates or pictures you would like to receive as I want to do whatever I can to help ease your mind while caring for your pet. I can help give your pet social interactions, walking for exercise or just extra cuddles while you're away. My schedule is flexible, if something you need isn’t listed (or availability) please message me as I can usually work something out. Daytime is my most available. As a mom of two kids, I always ensure safety is top priority for everyone. I will only walk animals on a leash to be safe and always check for ticks after coming back from walks. I have experience with medication for animals and CPR for animals.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life! I have four golden doodles in my family (from mini to large) and know the requirements and care dogs of all sizes need, especially a good long walk for them to explore and let their energy out so they can be more restful when you get home and have a great sleep. You can see my large doodle, Lincoln, in my profile photo 🐶. I love dogs, and I consider mine my best friends and would love the opportunity to help you out! Hi, I’m Alex 👋🏼 I’m a recent university graduate from Carleton University with a Bachelor of Computer Science. I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life! I have four golden doodles in my family (from mini to large) and know the requirements and care dogs of all sizes need, especially a good long walk for them to explore and let their energy out so they can be more restful when you get home and have a great sleep. You can see my large doodle, Lincoln, in my profile photo 🐶. I love dogs, and I consider mine my best friends and would love the opportunity to help you out! I have lots of time off at the moment so I’m generally available to help you out at any time! I’m super flexible with accommodating to your schedule, location and needs. I love taking my dogs on big long walks so they can explore during the day, as that’s their favourite thing to do. I know that dogs have lots of energy and if they just stay inside or go on very short walks, they can feel very hyper and needy, especially when you come home after work!
About: I love animals and they love me! It's been this way since I was 5 years old. Hamsters, budgies, kittens, fish, dogs... Have had it all! Your babies will have everything they need with me! I had a long career in law enforcement. Retired early and now I get to do the things that I truly love and that really brings joy to my days.. all while helping you! I value reliability, communication and trust. I have many key codes to friends' homes as they trust me implicitly. People I've known over 30 years. I volunteered in the puppy room for 4 years at an animal shelter until 2018. That taught me a lot regarding hands on care. I also took some classes offered at the shelter regarding breed types, behaviours and what to be cautious of. I became a trusted socialization coach where I would walk the larger dogs, play with them in the yard and do write ups for their new potential owners for their kennel window! I would be happy to care for your pet and send you updates and photos daily. It's hard to be away from our furry family members and your peace of mind is paramount when you cannot be with them. I feel the same way about my brood! I'm semi-retired and study from home. My availability is usually wide open and can at times, accept last minute requests. No children here. I own 1 dog. 2 indoor only cats. Clean, quiet home. Non smoking. I have a vehicle and I usually have my pup with me on daily errands! Daily hikes are a must. My cats... never go outdoors. They have their own room with a cat tree and a zillion toys! A big window to look out. I take my own dog out every few hours and we hike in Stittsville in the woods at least once a day, off leash. If you prefer on leash, no problem! No one is ever unsupervised as I care too much for their well being. Every furry friend here has had their shots and is spayed/neutered.
“I’m so grateful for Jocelyn’s flexibility and willingness to accommodate us on short notice. Timon had a wonderful time on his walk and came back happy and well-exercised.”
About: I've had the joy of raising and caring for my German Shepherd, Toby, since he was a puppy. He's now living with my parents, but the years I spent training, socializing, and loving him taught me so much about responsible and compassionate pet care. What sets me apart as a sitter is my real-life, hands-on experience with a smart, high-energy breed. I understand how important structure, exercise, and positive reinforcement are for a happy, well-behaved dog. I’ve also cared for senior dogs and puppies, so I’m comfortable adjusting my approach based on age, energy level, or special needs. Whether your pet loves playtime, slow walks, or just company while you're away, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home. I am currently working full-time and it’s work from home therefore I would be having plenty of time to take care of them and typically leave my afternoons to my rover clients! I live in a 4 bedroom house with a backyard and it’s fenced with plenty of space for them to romp and play! We can't wait to meet you and your pets :)
“Kyla was wonderful in accommodating our last minute request for dog walking. She went above and beyond with her walks and I can tell that our pup was very happy with her. Thank you for the wonderful attention to our Charlie girl, Kyla!”
About: Hi there! I’m Tam, a lifelong animal lover based in Stittsville. Whether it’s an energetic pup or a shy feline, I treat every pet as if they’re my own. I know how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member with someone new, and I’m here to give you total peace of mind. I currently work during the day Monday to Thursday so I have some spare time in the evening and Friday-Sundays. When I’m not walking my own pups I would love to lend a hand! I don’t currently offer care in my home but I will happily respect your wishes while caring for you pets in your home. The more details you give me the better!
“My dog took an instant liking to Erica. She is clearly very comfortable with big dogs who love to be loved (and might be a bit over exuberant). Erica quickly responded and was a pleasure to meet. I have no hesitation in recommending Erica’s dog walking services.”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Stanley Corners
Ali has been amazing with our two pups! We have never left them before to go on holiday so I was very nervous. Ali made me realise very quickly that they were in good hands, even tolerating their crazy greetings with ease. I can’t thank Ali enough for caring for them.
Zoe was absolutely amazing with my sweet boy Oscar! 🐾🩷 he was so happy with her and loved her immediately, which made me feel so comfortable and reassured. Zoe was incredibly clear and communicative throughout her walks and doggy daycare, keeping me updated with lovely photos and messages. I’m so grateful to have found someone so lovely, kind, and caring to look after Oscar. I couldn’t recommend Zoe highly enough and would 100% book with her again! Thanks again Zoe! 🩷
We’ve had an great experience with our Jennifer. She is reliable and clearly love what they do. Aspen is happy and well-exercised after every walk. Communication is great, with helpful updates and photos that give peace of mind. It’s such a relief knowing our dog is in caring and capable hands—highly recommend!
Kaori is wonderful! We have booked twice with her now for walks and feeding while we have been out of town for the weekend, and Bella is always happy. We get photo updates and check-ins, which I always appreciate, and I love the smile I see on Bella's face when Kaori brings over puzzles and games. Bella is a bit of a nervous gal, and Kaori has been so patient with her, keeping her distanced from other dogs and humans, keeping everyone safe. I appreciate her instincts, skill and kindness. Would hightly recommend her.

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 Stanley Corners. 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 Stanley Corners 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 Stanley Corners 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 Stanley Corners 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.
