“Thank you Titana for taking such good care of my Billy for the past few weeks. He was always so excited and happy to see you and slept like a log after the walks. Rover is very lucky to have you on their team.”

About: Hi there! My name is Janis, and I am a newly graduated veterinarian. I have had a lifelong love for animals and years of practical hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I am currently offering dog walking, dog sitting, and pet care services with a very flexible schedule before I begin full time veterinary work at the end of July. Thanks to my extensive veterinary training and clinical experience, I am comfortable caring for pets with medical needs, administering medications, monitoring senior pets, and helping anxious animals feel safe and comfortable. Whether your pet loves long walks, a shorter stroll, playtime and enrichment, cuddles on the couch, or just a calm reassuring presence, I tailor my care to what makes them happiest. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your animal. I’ll always treat your pets like they’re my own, and keep you updated with plenty of photos and communication while they’re in my care! Id love to meet you and your furry family members! I start full time veterinary work at the end of July. Until then, my schedule is extremely flexible and am happy to cater to anyone’s needs. Once I start to work, we can discuss more concrete times. I always aim to make pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved as possible while you’re away. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home for drop-ins, walks, or sitting visits, I do my best to stick closely to their normal routine so they can feel relaxed and secure in their familiar environment. As a newly graduated veterinarian, your pets safety and wellbeing are always my top priorities. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages and personalities, including puppies/kittens, anxious animals, senior pets, and those with medical needs. I’m also trained to recognize subtle signs of stress or illness, which gives many owners extra peace of mind when trusting someone with their furry family member. For dogs, I priority safe walks, secure leashing/harnessing, hydration, enrichment, and lots of positive attention. For cats, I understand the importance of patience, calm energy, and respecting each cat’s individual comfort level. I know how nerve-wracking it can feel leaving your pet with someone new, so communication is huge for me. You can always expect regular updates, photos, and honesty throughout my visits. My goal is not only for your pets to be well cared for, but genuinely excited to see me again!
“Victoria really cares about the dogs she walks, and my dogs love their walks with her! She went out if her way to find out about my dogs before their first walk and made me very comfortable to leave them with her. Highly recommend Victoria.”

About: Having a Shih Tzu for 15 years taught me just how much joy comes from finding what each dog loves most. Puppies usually want to play and explore everything, so I like to keep things active with games of fetch, tug of war, or walks where they can sniff around and discover new things. For adult dogs in their routine, I try to match their energy, whether that means a good long walk or some backyard playtime. And having helped care for senior dogs, I know how much they appreciate slower walks, gentle affection, and quiet time cuddled up together. Whatever stage of life a dog is in, my goal is to give them the kind of attention and companionship that makes them feel truly at home, just like my own dog always did with me. I work from home, so pet care fits naturally into my day rather than being squeezed in around a commute. I'm available for walks, feeding, playtime, and company throughout the day, not just mornings and evenings. I care for pets both in my own home and at clients' homes, depending on the service. My home has a fully fenced yard, so dogs have safe space to play and explore off-leash. Whether I'm hosting or visiting, I follow the pet parent's routine closely — same food schedule, same walk times, same house rules — so the pet feels comfortable and nothing feels out of the ordinary while you're away.

“Jessica was incredibly helpful when I broke my hand and needed extra support with my dogs. She is very reliable and friendly, always prompt, and genuinely happy to see them. She was also very patient and accommodating with my timid dog, Phinny. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter.”

“Absolutely thrilled with the dog walking service provided by David! Our family hired him for two weeks while we were on vacation, and he has been exceptional. He’s incredibly responsible, always punctual, and, most importantly, our beloved dog Nico adores him. It’s heartwarming to see Nico so excited to spend time with him every day. David has gone above and beyond, and we couldn’t be happier with his service. We highly recommend him to anyone in need of a caring and reliable dog walker!”

About: For over three years, I’ve dedicated myself to caring for local strays, making sure they had food, clean shelter, baths, and the medications they needed to thrive. My passion for helping animals grew as I volunteered as an Adoption Process Specialist, guiding families through the joys and responsibilities of adoption, including understanding cat health, vet visits, and the cost of care. Most recently, I’ve had the privilege of working as a dog daycare handler, where I spent my days ensuring pups were happy, safe, and well-socialized. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do, it’s who I am. Pet care seamlessly fits into my daily and weekly routine, thanks to my flexible availability. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening feedings, I can adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s needs. I prioritize providing consistent, attentive care, ensuring your pet feels loved and well-cared for no matter the time or day. When caring for pets in a client's home, I make sure they feel right at home with cozy spots to nap, plenty of playtime, and a consistent routine to keep them happy and comfortable. I treat every pet like part of the family, offering lots of love and attention. When I care for pets in their own home, I stick to their usual routine to help them feel secure and relaxed. Whether it’s feeding, walks, or just cuddles, I make sure they’re well cared for and send regular updates so you can rest easy knowing they’re in good hands.
About: Hi! I’m Tugce, and animals have been my biggest passion for as long as I can remember. I grew up on a farm surrounded by animals, and that’s where my lifelong love for them began. I’m completely obsessed with cats—they truly have a special place in my heart. If animals could talk, I’d probably spend more time talking to them than people! Their personalities, little habits, and unconditional love always make me smile. Playing with dogs is one of my favorite ways to spend my day. Whether it’s going for long walks, playing fetch, giving belly rubs, or simply spending quality time together, I genuinely enjoy every moment. I work from home, which means I have plenty of time to give your furry family member the attention, supervision, and companionship they deserve. They will never be left alone for long periods and will always have someone nearby. Every pet is different, so I always take the time to learn their routine, personality, and preferences. My goal is to make them feel safe, relaxed, and loved while you’re away. Please note that, due to the size of my home, I currently offer cat boarding only. I want every pet to have enough space to feel comfortable, so I don’t board dogs in my home. However, I’m always happy to provide house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking for dogs in their own familiar environment. I’m also available for same-day and last-minute bookings whenever my schedule allows. I absolutely love taking photos, so you can expect lots of picture and video updates throughout the day. I know how reassuring it is to see your furry friend happy, relaxed, and having fun while you’re away. I’m more of a night owl, so late-evening and overnight care are never a problem for me. Since I work remotely, I have a very flexible schedule and I’m usually available on weekdays, weekends, and holidays. I truly believe pets are family. I will care for your furry friend as if they were my own—with patience, kindness, love, and respect. My goal is to give both you and your pet complete peace of mind while you’re apart. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry best friend! ❤️🐾 I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pets. Spending time with animals doesn’t feel like work to me, it’s something I genuinely enjoy. Whether it’s playing, cuddling, going for walks, or simply keeping them company, I love being around animals and making them feel happy, safe, and loved. ❤️🐾 Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priorities. From my experience, every pet has their own unique personality, routine, and preferences. That’s why I take the time to observe and understand each animal so I can provide care that suits their individual needs. I believe paying attention to a pet’s behavior is important, and I always adjust my approach based on their personality and comfort level. My goal is to create a safe, loving, and stress-free environment where they can feel relaxed and happy. I enjoy keeping pets engaged with playtime, enrichment activities, and companionship while respecting their boundaries and routines. I also understand how difficult it can be to be away from your pet, so I am happy to provide regular updates, photos, and communication to give you peace of mind. I genuinely love caring for animals and treat every pet as if they were my own, with the same level of patience, attention, and affection. ❤️🐾

“Peter is just WONDERFUL! Friendly, outgoing, considerate & the perfect companion to our golden retriever. We reached out to Peter to walk Moose every day we were on vacation, met him ahead of time (passed the Moose that with flying colours) & trusted him immediately. Moose's morning schedule meshed with Peter's; we received daily updates with the cutest pictures. Peter is open & kind, his live of dogs is obvious. We will definitely be working with Peter again & recommend him highly!”

About: I’ve taken care of my own dog since I was 10, and have also watched over friend’s dogs. I cared for him from a puppy to a senior, with different needs. I am mainly experienced with larger breeds but have also been around smaller breeds as well. I know how important it is for dogs to get exercised, and busy schedules can get in the way. I have a large forest nearby and also a large ravine backyard! Usually I would be able to drive over, or walk over if nearby. I am currently working part time remotely and am available for most of the day. Once I am back in school in September my Mondays and Wednesdays will be busy, other days available. I am away on a trip Aug 20-Sept 12. I am starting out with dog walking and looking to move to dog sitting or house sitting in the future. I have a large fenced yard and a forest just minutes away!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Vaughan
Crystal has been amazing with our dog Duncan! She’s incredibly accommodating, and we were so impressed with how quickly Duncan warmed up to her; especially since he’s usually a bit wary of strangers. Now he absolutely loves his “walkies” with her and even tried to follow her home one day! We’re so grateful to have found someone he feels so comfortable with.

The average cost for Dog Walking in Vaughan on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

There are 7,404 sitters on Rover for Dog Walking in Vaughan. About 85% of Vaughan 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 Vaughan. 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 Vaughan.
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 Vaughan 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 Vaughan 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:
- 83% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 87% 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.
