“Randona has been amazing with my dog. She writes very detailed notes about their walks and it is very obvious she genuinely loves dogs. Archie is very excited whenever he sees Randona so obvious he adores her and their walks too!”

“Deb and Mark are great! I feel at ease when they come and care for my little luv bug Oscar. This is day 2 of walks and he comes home tuckered out so I know he got his exercise and had a great time. Love that Deb and Mark are local. Thank you again :)”

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and have 4 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs. Raising my own reactive quarantine pup taught me patience, structure, and positive reinforcement. I helped her become calmer and more comfortable around people, animals, and busy environments through consistent socialization and exposure training. I’m attentive to each dog’s unique personality and committed to providing a safe, loving, and comfortable environment while you’re away. I am currently working part-time while focusing on online classes, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide attentive pet care. I prioritize keeping pets comfortable by following their normal routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any special instructions provided by owners. I always make sure pets have fresh water, a clean environment, and lots of attention while in my care.
About: I work in an animal hospital and have hands-on experience with pets of all ages, including senior and anxious animals. I’m comfortable giving medications, recognizing early signs of illness, and providing calm, gentle care. What sets me apart is my attention to detail and ability to understand each pet’s needs. I treat every pet like my own and always prioritize their safety and comfort 💛 I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos so you feel at ease while you’re away. Right now, I’m available on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays 🐾 If you let me know 1–2 weeks in advance, I’m happy to adjust my schedule and open up more days! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where they can feel relaxed and secure. I always follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible; including feeding schedules, walks, and any specific instructions. I make sure pets are never left unattended for long periods and always keep a close eye on their behavior and well-being. With my experience working in an animal hospital, I’m confident in recognizing any signs of stress or illness early and responding appropriately. I’m also comfortable administering medications if needed. In your home, I treat your space with the utmost respect and keep everything clean, safe, and exactly as you left it. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away 💛
“I had an amazing experience using Rover thanks to Shadnay! My dog Lucy isn’t the easiest, but Shadnay was absolutely incredible with her. She’s so patient, thoughtful, and clearly has a natural way with animals. I felt completely at ease knowing Lucy was in such good hands. Highly, highly recommend booking with Shadnay if you get the chance!”


“Caroline is awesome with my dogs, Dolly and Lenny who are a handful. I must say. They get so excited when they see her come to our door and really enjoy spending time with her. She is an amazing dog walker and I highly recommend using her”

About: I worked at animal emerge clinic of the Fraser Valley for almost 4 years and I love taking care of animals and giving them the love that they deserve. I can be pretty flexible but I am a dancer and this is what my schedule is like for right now Sundays 5:00pm-9:00pm, Wednesday 6:30-9:30pm, Thursdays 3:30, 5:00pm and Fridays 7:00pm-10pm. I can be pretty flexible and whatever your needs are for your pets. I will always do my best to make sure your dog is looked after.
About: What sets me apart is my calm, consistent approach with animals. I focus on making dogs feel safe, relaxed, and understood on their walks. I’m reliable with routines and pay attention to each dog’s pace and behaviour, rather than rushing or treating walks as a quick task. Pet care fits well into my schedule because I currently have flexibility on certain days of the week, especially Thursdays and some flexible hours in between. I plan my availability carefully so I can be consistent and reliable for scheduled walks. I provide pet care in the client’s home by following their routines closely and making sure their pet feels comfortable in their familiar environment. For dog walking, I focus on safe, consistent walks tailored to the dog’s energy level and needs. I respect each home and treat it with care and professionalism.
“Dominique has been fantastic with our new puppy. She's been walking our pup throughout the week for a couple weeks and gives us updates and photos every time. She is promp and is always accommodating to changes.”

About: Hi, I’m Emaan - a lifelong animal lover! I have grown up around pets and currently have four rescue cats of my own. Although I haven't owned dogs myself, I am willing to provide reliable care for your pets based on your specific house rules and routines. I am a quick learner when it comes to your pet’s feeding schedules, walking routines, giving meds, and can ensure they feels safe, loved and cared for in their own environment. 😄 As a student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me plenty of time to dedicate to your pets. I am available all days of the week for in-home check-ins or visits and can coordinate what time(s) work best for you and your pet. I provide care in the comfort of your home, ensuring your pets remain in an stress-free and familiar environment while you are away. I will follow specific schedules and set routines and provide a whole lot of love!
About: I never ask clients to leave a review. I feel like the reviews that I receive are far more genuine and authentic when owners feel inclined to leave feedback on their own. It makes the reviews that I do receive far more meaningful to me and hopefully if you are considering reaching out to me for a booking you can read for yourself about all the happy owners I have worked with over the last few years. I do my best to make sure that all the dogs and cats I have looked after feel safe, happy and content while with me. I like to try and be their home away from home ❤️. If I’ve done that, then I have had a successful booking; for the owner/family and their pet. I grew up with all kinds of pets and feel comfortable and happy around animals. Dogs in particular bring me immense joy. The love and loyalty they give unconditionally sets them apart in my opinion. Besides growing up with pets, as an adult I have raised 2 dogs from a puppy and trained them into adulthood. I have also experienced looking after senior dogs and all that this entails. Currently I have my own small to medium-sized dog at home, she will be a companion to your dog when staying with us. She is super friendly and outgoing. My son and daughter are both in their late teens and are very responsible and each has taken dog training classes. Between the 3 of us, we think we offer a loving, caring home, filled with belly rubs, several walks a day (or one long one!) and maybe a few treats here and there (if allowed). I have had many repeat customers because when a pet returns home after their stay with me they are happy and healthy and owners can see that they have been well looked after. I have enjoyed the trusted relationships I have built with the dog owners I have met and worked with as well as their furry family members! I currently work primarily from home. When I do go into the office, it's only for 1 - 2 days a week for approx. 4 - 6 hours. I have one child in university who lives at home currently and her schedule is such that she is home on the days that I may go into the office. So your pet will never be left alone. My son is also home in the evenings and on the weekends and is happy to help play, walk or support the dog/cat in any way that he can. I can pet-sit and do overnights anytime. I would prefer to have at least 3 days notice that you are wanting to book a stay though so I can plan accordingly. I am mostly a homebody and I love to go for long walks and hikes especially on the weekends when I have more time. Most days I usually take my dog for a walk in the morning for approx. 1 hour and then I usually take her out in the evening for approx. 1 hour walk. If your dog is up for it, they are more than welcome to join us. Throughout the day depending on the energy level of your dog I can also take several breaks to play with your furry friend. I have a large variety of pet toys and dog puzzles to keep your dog active and mentally stimulated. If your dog likes to just relax and snooze most of the day, there are quiet spots throughout my home that would give them the comfort and quiet they would like. There are no young kids in my home or cats that your pet might have to contend with. We live in a peaceful and quiet area with access to the outside whenever your dog might need it. I understand the need for a safe environment for your pet. I require the same from anyone looking after my dog when I have had to go away. I understand the stress and anxiety that can come from leaving your furry family member with a stranger. I am happy to send picture(s) to you of your dog during their stay with me. I have found that this brought me peace when I had to leave my dog, it was important to have a visual of her happy face and I'm happy to provide you with the same! If you want to text about how your dog is doing, I can do that too. I will provide your pet with the same care and love that I give me own dog. I will be attentive to your dogs needs and will be happy to have them in my home. Your dog is welcome on the bed and sofa along with my dog (if that's ok with you). If you are crate training I am familiar with that and I am happy to continue with that routine as well. I also feel comfortable with dogs that are older and require medication throughout their day and perhaps a slower pace and with special needs dogs that may require a little more time and attention.
“Thanks to Hayley for being so attentive and sweet with our big boy, Kaos. Any dog or cat parent would be lucky to have you as their sitter/walker. Thanks again Hayley!”

“Emma walked our dog Summer while we were on vacation. Excellent communication, reliable and trustworthy. It was a stress free experience and Summer was happy and healthy when we arrived home. Positive all round experience.”


About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and I really felt that when I had to leave my own dog, Suarez, behind for business travel. I remember how hard that felt, constantly wondering how he was doing, hoping he was actually being cared for, and wishing I had more than just a quick update. That experience is a big part of why I do this the way I do now. I recently stepped away from my corporate career to focus on working with animals and creating a space where dogs can feel comfortable, settled, and genuinely cared for while their owners are away. At home, I have a 12 year old Labrador who is calm, gentle, and incredibly intuitive with other dogs. He naturally helps create a low-pressure environment and is often the first to share his toys and help new dogs settle in. Outside of the home, I volunteer at a farm sanctuary working with rescue animals, many from difficult backgrounds. That experience has strengthened my ability to read behaviour, notice small changes, and adjust care based on what each animal needs. I’m also certified in Canadian Red Cross First Aid for Dogs & Cats and continue to study canine behaviour, communication, and nutrition so I can better understand and care for the dogs that stay with me. Experience & Certifications: • Canadian Red Cross First Aid for Dogs & Cats • Ongoing study in canine behaviour, communication, and nutrition • Volunteer experience at a farm sanctuary working with rescue animals I keep things intentionally low volume, with only a small number of dogs at a time, so each one gets the attention, structure, and environment they need to feel at ease. What matters most to me is that you can actually relax while you’re away, knowing your dog is safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. Caring for dogs is my full-time focus, so the day is built around what they need. With only two dogs here at a time, I’m able to really pay attention to how each dog is settling in and adjust based on their energy, personality, and comfort level. Most days include a mix of time outside and at home, whether that’s walks around the neighborhood or nearby trails. Some dogs love getting out and exploring, while others, especially seniors, do better with shorter, slower walks and more time to rest, so I always follow what works best for them. I’m home most of the day, and the only time I step out is a few times during the week for about an hour to an hour and a half. Before I leave, I always make sure your dog has been walked and settled so they can relax comfortably. Any time on their own is brief, and never for long. What your dog’s time here can look like: Your dog’s day is a mix of time outside, time at home, and proper rest. Depending on their personality and energy, their stay may include: - Walks around the neighborhood or nearby trails - Scent-based walks where they can explore at their own pace - Puzzle toys and simple scent games inside - Time in the kitchen making dog-safe treats together (with your approval) - Quiet rest and downtime around the home Every dog is different, so I adjust the day based on what helps them feel most comfortable and settled. The environment your dog will be in: -Only 2 dogs at a time (no overcrowding) -Dedicated entry space (fully turfed garage) for post-walk clean up, drying off, and settling in comfortably -Full access to the home, designed to feel familiar and relaxed -Dogs are welcome on the couch, ottomans, and bed (just like home) -Space set up for both play and downtime depending on what your dog enjoys -Fully fenced backyard + access to nearby walking paths Updates while you’re away: As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to know your dog is doing well. What you can expect from my end: - Daily updates with photos or short videos - Notes from every visit on how they’re settling in and anything I’m noticing Getting started: I like to keep things simple and low stress for both you and your dog. Step 1: Meet & Greet I always like to start with a meet and greet, typically around 30 minutes or less, so we have a chance to get to know each other and make sure it feels like a great fit for everyone. It also gives me a chance to learn more about your pup’s routine, personality, energy level, behaviours, and anything important I should know ahead of their stay. I have a few go to parks that I find work really well for meet and greets, otherwise we can always coordinate another location that’s comfortable and convenient. Step 2: Pre-Stay Details As we get closer to your booking, I’ll collect a few final details like feeding schedule, veterinary information, emergency contacts, medications, and anything else needed to make sure your dog is cared for properly while they’re here. Suarez and I are excited to welcome your pup into our home! 😊
“Ran was great with Hiro and gave me lots of updates and pics on their walk together! Will be booking her for future walks as she’s super responsive and flexible with our schedule. Thanks, Ran!”

This is our second time hiring Randona to walk our dogs while we’ve been on vacation. She is trustworthy, reliable, our dogs absolutely love her and we know the dogs will be well taken care of under her watch! The daily reports and pictures are very appreciated and give us peace of mind. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable dog walker! Thanks so much Randona!

This girl! Karen is mature enough to fully trust to care for two of the most important dogs in the world. The minute she walked in the door, I could see that Karen was a natural dog person. She was calm and didn't get the dogs all wound up with baby talk. Her voice with them was steady and assured. Dudley and Daisy obviously had a great time with her on their walk. They were tired and happy. Karen really is a joy!

Michelle is highly competent and truly the real deal! She has a Type-A, go-getter spirit and was ahead of things before we even mentioned them. She offered extra help with the dogs, like filling their water bowls, and even had thoughtful ideas to support one of my pups with mobility issues. She was punctual, reliable, and honest in doing exactly what she said she would. I really appreciate her initiative and care. My dogs are already starting to adore her, and I absolutely would hire her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 4,998 sitters on Rover for Dog Walking in Walnut Grove. About 85% of Walnut Grove 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 Walnut Grove. 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 Walnut Grove.
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 Walnut Grove 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 Walnut Grove 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:
- 85% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 90% 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.
