Due to life changes, we recently had to find someone to walk our dog, Altaïr four times a week. Umut was very responsive and proactive from the beginning. He won Altaïr over in two days. Now, when Altaïr sees him, he gets super excited for his walk. They go on 1 hr long walks, and Altaïr comes back calm and happy. Altaïr is trained but he can be a little reactive sometimes, yet Umut has managed this very well. We (and Altaïr) definitely recommend Umut, be it for a one time walk, or recurring ones!!

I can’t say enough good things about Fatemeh. She is incredibly reliable and is always there whenever I need her, even on short notice. She’s so kind, trustworthy, and absolutely amazing with my dog. It gives me such peace of mind knowing he’s in such good hands with her. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable and genuinely caring with their pets! ❤️

I normally don’t write reviews but Heather was wonderful when it came to everything. From the start she was very quick to respond, willing to communicate happily, extremely flexible to all the obstacles I threw her way, and went above and beyond when it came to walking my Husky and it showed by his excitement towards her. You will not be disappointed with Heather :)

About: I genuinely love animals and understand how important it is to find someone patient, attentive and trustworthy. I provide a calm, clean and caring environment, follow each pet’s established routine carefully, and make sure they receive affection, playtime, regular walks and plenty of attention. I will also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel comfortable while you are away. My schedule allows me to provide regular potty breaks, walks, playtime and companionship throughout the day. I can adapt to each pet’s usual feeding and exercise routine, and I am also available for overnight and weekend care. I keep my calendar updated so I only accept bookings when I can give each pet the attention they deserve. I provide a clean, calm and comfortable home where pets receive plenty of care and attention. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, routines and any special needs. Dogs remain securely leashed outdoors, and I take time to help every pet feel safe, relaxed and at home.

My goodness, Maire is truly exceptional. I have a very energetic Bernedoodle puppy, and she handles her with such patience, and ease. Ru absolutely adores her, and so do I. I recently had an unexpected emergency, and Maire stepped in without hesitation to care for Ru in my absence. That kind of reliability and heart means everything. She has the calmest, sweetest spirit, and you can genuinely feel how much she loves animals. I cannot recommend Maire highly enough. She is a gift. 🐶✨

About: We are former dog foster parents and this experience has shaped our love for animals and our desire to give them a safe place to stay where they will be loved while you are away. What you (& your pup) can look forward to: - Two dedicated dog lovers who work from home and are excited to give your pup lots of love in the form of cuddles, play time and many walks. For the time they are with us they are a member of our family 😊 - I'll send daily photos & updates about your pup - We're happy to do a meet & greet with your dog to see if it's a good fit - We will take loving care of your dog based on the feeding, walking & medical instructions you give us - If your dog needs to take medication we have experience providing it - Long term stays welcome! - Our home has air conditioning For dogs with separation anxiety: right now we're doing doggy day care but not overnight boarding for dogs who can't be left alone. We like to go out on date nights ❤️ Dogs who do best solo: If your dog does not get along with other dogs I will make sure they are the only dog in the house. If your dog does well with other (well-behaved) dogs I occasionally host dogs from other families together so there is lots of playtime & socialization. I will always get your permission in advance before hosting any other dog in my home & will of course be prepared to separate them if they're not doing well together. But of course they usually have tons of fun. Parents of American bullies, pitbulls, bulldogs, pugs, and Boston Terriers: we love your dogs but unfortunately have had negative experiences with others that would make us non-ideal caregivers for them. We know every dog is different and we're sad that unfortunately have to decline these breeds. Thank you for trusting us with your animal best friend, when they are in our home we they're our animal best friend too! I know how important it is for you to find the right sitter for your dog, please feel free to ask questions and book a meet & greet to see if we're a fit. Thank you for reading 😊 Amy My partner and I both work fully remotely, me as a life & authenticity coach and him as a software engineer. As such, we have plenty of time to care for your fur babies! We are quite protective of the dogs in our care. They will only be let off leash in a closed & designated off-leash dog park (with your permission) or if you've indicated they're allowed off leash and we are careful when cooking not to leave something toxic to dogs (chocolate, onions etc.) in reach. You can even read about an incident in my reviews about a dog who we had to protect from an angry spontaneous physical attack from a stranger. We take the welfare of your dog very seriously.

About: Hi! I am Maria and I’ve always had a huge soft spot for animals. I’ve been surrounded by them my whole life. Ive had two dogs (bichon frise, German shepherd), my uncle has a farm in which he raised all kind of animals. I’ve been far from home and far from my dogs for far too long, and I’ve been missing the feeling of taking care of them🥹 I’m currently a part time student during summer, but I’m pretty flexible any day of the week, especially during afternoons and early mornings, and anytime during the weekends! I live in an apartment, and I’ve always been surrounded by pets! I live next to a really nice walking area, where everywhere I go I find myself surrounded by pups and all kinds of cuties! So your pets will be in really good hands!💕

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and have experience caring for dogs, hamsters, and birds since I was very young. Growing up with pets taught me the importance of patience, responsibility, and understanding each animal’s unique personality and needs. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have regularly looked after dogs and cats for family members and family friends. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playing, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship, I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive care and give pet owners peace of mind knowing their furry family members are in good hands. As a student with a flexible schedule, I’m able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and overnight pet sitting, and I do my best to accommodate each pet’s routine. Whether your pet needs a midday walk, regular check-ins while you’re away, or overnight companionship, I strive to provide reliable and consistent care. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. When caring for pets in their own home, I make every effort to maintain their normal routine and keep their environment calm and familiar. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, exercise, medications, and household rules. I understand that inviting someone into your home requires trust, and I treat both your pets and your home with the utmost respect while providing attentive, loving care.

About: Hi 👋 I’m Jingyi — pet sitter, dog walker, and animal lover based in Montreal 🐾 I’ve always loved the calm, joyful energy animals bring, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. My goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while giving owners peace of mind through attentive communication and regular updates. ✨ Why choose me 🧘 Calm & Attentive Care I keep my bookings limited so every pet receives personalized attention, patience, and a low-stress environment tailored to their needs and energy level. 💬 Frequent Updates & Trustworthy Communication One thing my clients consistently appreciate is how attentive and communicative I am. I send regular updates and photos so you always know your pet is safe, happy, and cared for. 📸 Thoughtful Pet Photos Included I love capturing natural little moments during walks, playtime, or cozy rest breaks — simple memories you can look back on while you’re away. ✅ Reliable & Detail-Oriented With my background in business analysis, I’m organized, dependable, and attentive to routines, feeding instructions, medications, and small details that matter to your pet’s comfort. 🏡 My Care Style I work from home most of the week, allowing me to provide flexible and consistent companionship throughout the day. I live in a clean, calm, child-free apartment and currently do not have pets of my own, creating a quiet and dedicated environment for your pet to feel relaxed and secure 💛 I work from home most of the week, which allows me to be present and flexible. I’m typically home during the day and able to provide consistent attention, playtime, and companionship. I live in a clean, calm, child-free apartment. I don’t currently have pets of my own, so your pet will have a quiet and dedicated space. I always make sure dogs are safely leashed and walked in familiar, pet-friendly areas. I’m attentive to their behavior and comfort, and I treat each dog like my own.

About: I’ve been taking care of pets for longer than I can remember! Working at the Canine Club brought me great experience with caring for over 30 dogs at once, which included feed time, play time, and care. I worked overnights to insure the safety for each and every dog. Caring for animals brings me a new perspective on life, it feels me with so much joy and love! I nanny during the day for two hours 2-3 times a week so besides that I am completely free for any of your pet friendly needs! I insure your animals get the loving and care they need while you’re away. I make sure they get to the walks they deserve and every ounce of my attention.

Amazing dog walker! Myriam came a previous day just to meet Addie and make sure she recognized her on the actual dog walk day. She is really good with dogs and you can tell with how she approached and managed Addie. She knows what she is doing! She was also very flexible on timing and even came early to both the pre-sit and the actual first dog walk! She sent pictures and a video of her playing with Addie and did everything we asked for (she is a very good listener!). You cannot go wrong with, Myriam!

We recently hired Kendra to walk our dog a couple times on a day we knew we would be gone from early morning to late night. She was awesome, trustworthy, a great communicator, sent lots of pictures - our dog looked so happy on her walks. We had run out of doggy poop bags and she even walked our dog to the pet store to buy more. We would definitely hire Kendra again. Thank you Kendra!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Westmount

Frequently asked questions about Rover

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

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 1,865 sitters on Rover for Dog Walking in Westmount. About 83% of Westmount 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 Westmount. 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 Westmount.

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 Westmount 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 Westmount 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:

  • 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 86% 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.
