About: I’ve had pets my entire life and truly understand how important they are as family. Friends, family, and neighbors trust me to walk, feed, and look after their pets. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every dog like my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for at all times. I am currently working mostly evening shifts so will be free to look after your dogs whilst you’re at work! I normally don’t start until the late afternoon/evenings, so I am free to hang out with your pups for even the whole day if needed! I provide safe, reliable care for pets in their own home and on walks. I follow your instructions closely, including feeding, routines, and any special needs. I make sure your pet feels comfortable in their familiar environment and gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care. I’m attentive, respectful of your home, and always focused on keeping your pet safe, happy, and stress free.
“Thanks for your afternoon with Max. Karen was a big help covering an afternoon walk and outing for our active pup. She was helpful with working out a schedule and getting a quick home visit in to introduce herself. We loved all the text and photo updates and will absolutely recommend and use her services again. Thanks so much. Max had a great time”
About: Hey :) I've lived in Whistler for just over 3 years, after moving from Cambridge (UK) and work for the mountain. I enjoy hiking, skiing and going to the gym on my weekend! Growing up, I have had all the pets, including a dog. I also grew up with chickens, ducks, quail and rhea (a bit like an ostrich). I am currently a Team Lead for Whistler Blackcomb so am used to responsibility :). I can be flexible with durations if needed 🐶 I am available most days after 6pm for walks and drop in visits, to look after your pet whilst you enjoy Whistler. I am available all day on Thursday, Friday and Saturday😊. I work Sunday - Wednesday during the daytime :) I treat all clients homes with respect and will treat your pet like its my own, I may also have to take a few cute photos along the way!
“Sanja very easy-going and relaxed my dog took to her immediately and enjoyed the walks; as if he were on vacation along with us and enjoying it just as much as we did. I would definitely recommend her again. If my dog likes somebody I like them too!”
“Ashley was great! She quickly accommodated a meet and greet, and took Jaxon out for two adventures with regular updates along the way including pics. I would definitely book Ashley again!”
About: I have looked after dogs and cats for many years. While I don’t have a dog at home currently (my last dog, Iggy, an Australian Kelpie passed away in March at 15 years old) I would like to welcome fur babies from time to time. I work part time from home so I have plenty of time to look after doggies. It’s just my 9 year old daughter and myself and we both adore 4 legged companions. I live on a quiet cul-de-suc with plenty of greenery and snow in winter with a dog park near by (walking distance). I offer plenty of short outdoor breaks or long walks (whatever the preference is). I can provide regular updates and plenty of pictures/videos. I am happy to look after senior dogs or puppies as I have experienced with both.
About: In my family, a real home is where there is dog hair everywhere and toys all over the house. Since I was born, I’ve always loved animals. They have a special place in my heart and they truly makes my heart happier. I have a.dog of my own, his name is Theo and he’s 10 years old. I have free time on my schedule, so why not make it fun. 🐶 I am currently working 4 days a week, I have 3 days available of pet sitting when needed. I am also flexible with schedule when needed. Safety and respect for the dog is my priority number 1. I want to give a peace of mind to the owners when they aren’t there. Also, respecting the owners advices/rules they have with their pets.
About: Everybody wonders why I don’t have a dog. In my free time I walk dogs. They bring me so much joy. And they get me out and about. For the majority of my life I have had a dog. At this point in my life it’s not ideal as I use to and hopefully will travel again for work. I was a canine massage practitioner so your pet will get lots of good pets! I am very active and love discovering all the trails the Sea to Sky has to offer. I have lived in Whistler for 20 years and I am very familiar with the area. If would like to know more please let me know. Looking forward to meeting your furry family member(s). I work for myself so I have a very flexible schedule. I like morning adventures in the woods and maybe one in the afternoon as week! Depends on what the dogs needs! I like to meet the owner and the pets a few times to make sure the pets have time to adjust and the owners feel comfortable with me in their home taking care of their pets.
About: My love for pets is what sparked me to enter the wonderful world of pet sitting. I understand the importance of trusting someone to care for your "kids". I grew up with a household of furry friends! This is currently my second job as I’m wanting to spend my time giving love to those who need it most. I’m available Mon-Sun 11am - 10pm My services are primarily going to be available for outside my own property within the adventurous outdoors and/or alongside the home comforts of the dogs own home.

I am experienced with: training dogs, young or old, Caring for dogs with disabilities, Senior dog care, Assuring a dog can be independent, Reactive dogs I am a waitress this giving me the ability to spend a wide range of time playing, training and caring for your pets.

I am very energetic, love going on walks and giving enrichment activities to stimulate your pet
About: I've grown up surrounded by animals my whole life — dogs, cats, birds — so caring for pets is second nature to me. When I was living in Australia, I got to look after some amazing dogs and made such lovely connections with their owners along the way. I've always been a huge animal lover. I even rescued a street dog from Thailand and brought her home to the UK. She needed a lot of training, love, and patience — but she's now happy, settled, and absolutely thriving. That experience taught me so much about understanding a dog's needs, building trust, and providing the kind of care that truly makes a difference. I'm now a permanent resident of Canada and settled in Whistler long-term, so you can count on me being here for your dog whenever you need. My work schedule for October is Wednesday-Sunday. I am flexible with drop ins, over nights stays and walks. I can be super flexible with my lunch breaks for mid-day walks, early morning walks or evening walks! With planning, I am able to stay at my partners home with pets! The great thing about this set up is between us, we have Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday off so your pet is unlikely to spend much time alone! I also start 9:30, and my partner finishes 3:30 so we can be really flexible with meeting animals needs. I am also able to stay at the pets home, pop in for dog walks, toilet breaks and lots of cuddles!
About: Hi! I’m an experienced animal caregiver who’s always loved being around pets of all kinds. I grew up with cats, dogs, and rabbits, and started pet sitting at 15, so caring for animals has always been part of my life. I have a Horse Specialist degree and have spent years working and living on farms and ranches, so I’m comfortable with everything from household pets to larger animals and different temperaments. I’ve also assisted vets with all kinds of treatments—from surgeries to smaller care like bandaging and injections—so I’m confident handling pets who need a bit of extra care. I truly treat every pet like my own and aim to make them feel safe, happy, and loved. I’d love to meet you and your pet! 😊 I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to adjust to your schedule and your pet’s needs. I have lots of time to play, care for, and give attention to your pet so they feel happy and comfortable. I’m based in Whistler and have my own car, making me reliable and able to travel easily. I’ll care for your pet either in your home or mine during the day, making sure they get lots of attention, play, and downtime. I’m a very active person and love being outside as much as possible, so walks and fresh air are always part of the routine. I live just a short walk from Alta Lake and have the Valley Trail right outside my door, which makes it easy to give pets plenty of fun, safe outdoor time.
About: I've trained and taken care of our family dog since she was 3 months old. I also walk, and help to look after friend's dogs when needed. Whether it's them staying overnight or either to take them out for walks during the day. I also currently volunteer at WAG Shelter (Whistler Animals Galore). I can be flexible if a dog needs to be taken for a walk in the morning or during the day if needed if given enough notice. I can be available for onboarding for 1-2nights as long as I'm given notice. I don't have a fenced yard, but there is a lot of walking trails near our house, and parks. We are allowed pets in our house and have room for a crate if needed. Please just chat to me to let me know the size of the crate to make sure it'll fit! Our landlords only come up on the weekends in Winter so we have the house mostly to ourselves. Our neighbourhood is very dog friendly!
About: I’ve been around dogs for my whole life and love getting to know them. I have experience training a very timid and aggressive rescue dog. Pet car fits easily into my daily routine since I’m currently in between jobs and have a very flexible schedule. I love spending time outdoors so taking your dogs for walks would be a great addition to my day! I currently, unfortunately, don’t have a dog. But, I’m excited to fill the empty void with your doggo! I’m happy to follow your instructions to provide your preferred care for your dog.
About: I have taken care of dogs ever since I was 10 years old. From feeding, walking and training my doggies, to family and friends relying on me to look after their pets whilst they are away! My schedule at the moment mostly consists of evening work when I am not skiing on the mountain! I am very flexible with timings around my evening work, and can make myself available for dog caring whenever is best suited to your needs I am a huge dog lover, looking to not only look after your furry friend but provide a-lot of love and affection! With 20+ years of animal care experience, 15 of which were with my own pups, I know how to care for dogs inside and outside of their home, interacting with other people and pets, and generally being aware of the care and understanding for each individual dog as every dog is different!
About: I've had pets around my house for my entire life, cats, dogs, reptiles, fish, hamsters, guinea pigs. Ever since I moved to Whistler, I haven't been able to find a place that allows pets, so I am on here to help spread my joy and love for animals, and give them back the love they all deserve. I am very responsible, live minutes from the dog park, and get along great with animals. I have been a local for 6 years so I have a good understanding of the neighborhoods in Whistler, and I also understand all the pet restrictions and policies in town. I am very understanding when it comes to cats and dogs, they all have varying personalities and each need a special kind of attention. I would love to fill my time looking after your furry little friend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Whistler on Rover is $34.41 per walk (as of July 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 253 sitters on Rover for Dog Walking in Whistler. About 78% of Whistler 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 Whistler. 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 Whistler.
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 Whistler 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 Whistler 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.
