“This was my first time hiring a dog walker - and Sarah was extremely professional and detail oriented! She setup a meet and greet prior to scheduled walks, asked lots of questions and took notes. Her updates were thorough, and Oakley was happily tired out after their excursions. Highly recommend.”

About: (Please dont judge me by my stats - I'm new here :) I am a mature woman with a youthful spirit. Dogs and cats are like people to me. I have owned cats or dogs most of my life. As pet owners, we want someone to care for them as much as we do. I go above and beyond to give your animal the specialized care he or she needs and deserves. I look forward to meeting them and seeing them happy! 🐶 I just moved back to Sudbury and located in The Valley. My schedule is flexible at the moment as I am establishing myself. I can't wait to fill my schedule with critters! I own a small dog and may bring her along to socialize with your pet if that works for you. I am flexible and intuitive according to everyone's needs. If it's walking or sitting, I give lots of playtime and attention to your pet. It's not just about food, water and exercise.
About: I'm a lifelong animal lover with years of experience of caring for a variety of pets of all different sizes and personalities! I've cared for dogs, cats, birds and bunnies for 30+ years. Growing up I've always lived with several pets and have always had the passion for taking care of animals. Whether it's a walk or drop in visit, I will treat every pet like my own - with lots of patience, attention, care, cuddles and love. I'm dependable, reliable, experienced, detail-oriented and always happy to follow your pet's unique routines. I will not only take care of your pets but your home as if it was my own. You can rely on me to keep your fur baby safe, happy and well cared for while you're away! I'm about to head back to school in September but my availability is currently pretty flexible. But I'm always willing to try and work with clients to find time that works for both of our schedules I love spending time with animals! For dogs I'll take them for nature walks, play fetch and give them all the snuggles. For cats they'll enjoy playtime, cuddles and attention. Photo and video updates can also be provided!!
About: I’ve had my dog Billy since I was 16! I put in a lot of training and work with him and he became my service dog. Now I’ve been around lots of other dogs and can’t wait to meet even more! I’m home every day, all day so I have plenty of time to spend with any new friends spending time here! We always spend time outside morning, afternoon and night, with lots of needed in between potty breaks. Walks around the neighbourhood are a fun time! Let me know if you don’t want that and thats no problem. I have a yard but it isn’t fenced in. Long lines or leashes are used. I have two dogs who love spending time with new friends! Crates are welcome and have their own area. Enrichment activities are our favourite way to pass time and we can’t wait to learn about your pups

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 Val Caron. 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 Val Caron 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 Val Caron 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 Val Caron 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.
