“Yvonne was great with our pup! She was kind enough to come meet him before our booking, and establish comfort. She provided pictures during our drop in. Highly recommend!”
“Title: Pawsitively Wonderful Dog Walker! I couldn't be happier with the dog walking services provided by Arjun. Arjun is not just a dog walker; he is a dog enthusiast. His genuine love for animals shines through in every interaction, creating a positive and joyful experience for my pet. It's evident he prioritizes the well-being and happiness of the dogs in his care. Communication is seamless, and I appreciate the regular updates and cute snapshots sent during walks. It's evident that Arjun goes the extra mile to ensure not only physical exercise but also mental stimulation for Casper(our dog).”
“Laura was great, very good with communication and happy to use techniques I showed her when walking my dog since he pulls a little, she handled it with a lot of care. Will use her again in the future!”

About: Are you looking for someone who will provide quality care and love your pet as much as you do? Look no further! I've been born and raised with multiple animals varying in breeds and sizes my entire life! I am a kind, caring, hard working professional that lives independently. I currently have one small dog of my own, he is neutered and up to date on vaccinations. At your request, I am able to provide alternate arrangements for him should your pet need solo care. I would love the opportunity to spend time with your pet to fulfill your needs and my own love for animals! You are guaranteed a genuine, kind, wholehearted animal lover who will provide exceptional care, love, affection, attention, and a comfortable living environment. I currently live in a three-story two bedroom townhouse on my own. While your pet is with me, they will be my number one priority! I'm more than happy to share my bed for cuddles at night, or maintain your routine of sleeping in a dog crate or any other special requests. I am directly across the street from a park, which ensures your pet will receive quality exercise in a beautiful environment that provides flexibility for either independence or socialization along our route. My career as a social worker speaks to my kind, compassionate, attentive nature. Whether your pet needs a lap to sit on, or someone to play fetch with… I am sure you will feel confident leaving your loved one in my hands... they may love it so much they don't want to leave! I work a balance of both in office and from my home. My office is only 15 minutes from my home which allows for easy lunch walks and minimal alone time. I have a small dog as a companion for your fur baby, or if preferred, he can be housed elsewhere. Your pet will be safe and secure in my townhome and only outside on leash. I am a confident dog walker and live in a safe neighbourhood across from a park.
“Victoria was great to work with and took good care of our pup for walks and potty breaks. Her communication was great and she was reliable. I think our pup felt comfortable with her and we'll hire her again!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs for the past 8 years, so caring for them has always been a big part of my life. I started dog sitting for friends and family in high school and still regularly look after dogs today. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities, and I understand that every dog has their own routine and needs. Whether it’s going for walks, playing, feeding, or just hanging out and keeping them company, I make sure they get plenty of attention and feel comfortable while their owners are away. I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. My goal is to make sure you can leave knowing your dog is in good hands and getting the same care and attention they’re used to at home. I work as a teacher during the week, so I’m typically available after 4:00 PM Monday through Thursday and after 4:30 PM on Fridays. I’m home most Friday nights and usually have plenty of availability on weekends, which gives me lots of time for walks, playtime, and keeping your dog company. My schedule can change from time to time, so I’ll always keep my Rover availability updated so you know when I’m free! I want every dog I care for to feel comfortable and at home. I have a fully fenced backyard with lots of space to run around, play, and get some fresh air. I also have an extra dog bed, toys, and treats available to help them settle in and enjoy their stay. When caring for a dog in their own home, I’m happy to follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions you provide. I know every dog is different, so I’m always happy to adjust based on what makes them happiest and most comfortable.

I take care of your pets as family and my own with love patience, respect and kindness. I am a calm individual who has been through a lot of situations with dogs and cats.

We have a fully fenced yard for you pet to run around and beautiful areas as we are a few minutes from Bayfront park/waterfront piers. We have 2 furbabies of our own and we are both animal lovers.

About: I’ve been caring for animals for nearly 30 years and have had pets for most of my life. Over the years I’ve looked after cats and dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, and at one point my partner and I cared for seven animals at the same time. I genuinely love spending time with animals and understand that every pet has unique needs, routines, and quirks. Whether it’s playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply providing a calm and dependable presence, I treat every pet with the same care and attention I’d give my own. As a photographer, I also enjoy capturing the occasional photo of happy pets to share with their owners while they’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I have the flexibility of running my own business. This allows me to be available for walks, visits, and pet sitting throughout the week while still maintaining a dependable schedule. I enjoy spending time with animals and am happy to work with pet owners to find a schedule that keeps their animals comfortable, happy, and well cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to follow their established routines as closely as possible. I understand that pets are most comfortable when their schedule, environment, and expectations remain consistent. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, medications, or bedtime routines, I take the time to learn each pet’s individual needs and ensure they feel safe and secure while their owners are away. I have experience with crate-trained dogs and understand the importance of maintaining those routines when requested. I am also comfortable supervising pets in securely fenced yards and always prioritize safety during outdoor time and walks. Above all, I treat every pet and home with the same respect, care, and attention I would expect for my own.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life through my family for thirty-three years and cats for twenty-five. Two years ago I adopted my first dog and greatest friend in life, a Golden Retriever named Chewie! Twelve years ago I initially fostered but later adopted two Bombay cats I named Luke and Leia. Luke passed away in 2020 but Leia is still as young as ever at twelve years old! I’m currently looking to make a career change from human services into animal care and seek further knowledge of animals to further my passion for animals! I have a fenced yard for my two year old Golden Retriever so he can roam the yard and do his business as he pleases.
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Tyneside
Yvonne is great! Her communication is stellar, and always updated us with how our dogs did on the walk. One of our dogs can take a while to warm up to strangers and she handled it great with updates on how long it took for him to calm down before getting out for their walk. She always made sure to refill their water and give them time to drink before going back in their crates.

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 Tyneside. 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 Tyneside 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 Tyneside 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 Tyneside 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.
