About: I have had cats and dogs my entire life and have had my own cats and dogs as an adult on my own as well. I am certified in the Canadian Red Cross Pet First Aid and CPR. I am very familiar with dog and cat communication and behaviours and how to work with both animals to ensure they are cared for properly. I currently have a cat named Rosie and a dog named Annie. Annie is 2 and loves playing with other dogs. She is fully vaccinated and very friendly. She’ll help burn out the energy of other dogs at the dog park no problem! I have also had experience owning other small household pets as well. Since I have the time and experience, I am looking to assist in helping people find care for their pets while they are at work or away from home. I have full availability at the moment. I am able to discuss discounts for multiple days/nights of care if needed. I have a fully fenced backyard and a large doggy door so that your fur baby will be able to use the door if needed and go outside as they wish to play/ use the bathroom. However, I will also monitor them in case they do not use this doggy door (Annie will show them how to use it!). I am certified by the Canadian Red Cross in Pet First Aid and CPR. I will also send hourly updates from 8 am to 8 pm to send a photo or advise on how your dog is doing and what they are up to. when taking dogs out for walks, I will ensure they are kept off of busy streets and only walk them when the pavement is not too hot for their paws/ grass or trail walks only. If taking dogs to the dog park, I will ensure they are monitored closely to ensure they are in a safe and happy environment without aggressive dogs. I will monitor pets eating and pooping and advise if there are any issues. I will ensure they have enough clean drinking water (we used Brita Filtered water). In the event the dog gets muddy or dirty I can bathe them as well.
About: I have taken care of a variety of pets my whole life as well as taking care of others. I have owned two dogs, 2 hamsters, a rabbit and many fish. I am very personable with each pet and make sure they are fully taken care of. In my experience I have walked, house sat and fed dogs based on their own needs and administer medicine . I am currently only working part time and am seeking a second job to create more income. I am very flexible and would love to help! I can easily take care of any animal depending on their needs. I am very comfortable with any behaviour, or anything they may need! :)
“When I arrived home from work my baby puppies were happy.... So pleased that they picked up and gave me their toy. Ellie, that meant in my perspective... mommy made a great decision in choosing you!”

About: Hey!! My name is Chelsea, and I own a 1-year-old Labradoodle named Kali, who I absolutely adore. I’ve had her since she was 2 months old, and I honestly don’t know what I’d do without her I love her to pieces. To be honest, I don’t think you’ll ever see Kali and me apart other than when I’m at work. I can’t wait to hear from you! I work shift work that is quite flexible this is why I need at least a day notice so that I can ensure it works with my schedule. The best possible would be contacting me so I can ensure I can be there for your pup! Pets are family to me, and my Labradoodle Kali is honestly my world. The biggest thing I focus on is understanding each dog’s personality, comfort level, and needs. Every pet is different, and I think making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved is the most important part of caring for them. Kali is very strong willed and loves new adventures, so I make sure she gets lots of walks, playtime, and trips to the dog park because she loves being off leash and meeting other dogs. I also pay close attention to safety and creating an environment that works best for her personality and energy level. That’s the same care I would give your pet taking the time to understand who they are, what they enjoy, and what helps them feel happy and comfortable while you’re away.

About: I’ve always had dogs growing up ! I am excited to use my spare time to help your dogs:)! Love walking and spending time with all animals! I can do anytime! Depends on the week! I’m a shift worker so typically work 4 days on- 4 days off! Will change every week! I love walking with any type of dog! Big or small/ good walkers or tougher walkers!

About: With over 30 years of experience caring for pets of all kinds, I am passionate about providing the utmost love and care to fur babies of all shapes, sizes and personalities. I actively volunteer at a few animal sanctuaries, including a dog sanctuary where I have the pleasure of playing with, walking, and giving belly rubs to many dogs of different ages, temperaments and physical conditions. I fall in love with every one of them! I have extensive experience with senior dogs and dogs with health issues, including cancer, dementia, heart issues and arthritis. I have experience with wound care and administering medications. I am dedicated to ensuring the safety and happiness of your furry companions. With a mature and responsible approach, I provide attentive care, ensuring your pets feel loved and comfortable. Trustworthy and reliable, I prioritize the well-being of your pets, offering peace of mind while you’re away. I retired from my teaching job to help care for my terminally ill dad. When I’m not volunteering at animal sanctuaries, I’m available for pet sitting. I have had my own fur babies in my home for over 30 years. We didn’t have any pets for the last two years, but we very recently adopted a new rescue named Hana. My schedule is fairly flexible and I’m looking forward to meeting your furry companions. I am dedicated to ensuring the safety and happiness of your furry companions. With a mature and responsible approach, I provide attentive care, ensuring your pets feel loved and comfortable. I have a large unfenced yard, but I love walking and provide as few, or as many walks &/or potty breaks as your pet needs. My dog typically gets 4 walks each day, plus extra potty breaks. Exercise and couch/cuddle time will be tailored to your pet’s needs. For doggy daycare, I only care for one dog at a time (unless there are multiple dogs from one family), so your dog will have 100% of my attention at all times.
About: Hey, I got my start in dog training with my puppy, Hugo, a highly driven Australian Shepherd. I kept running into challenges, and it felt like our relationship couldn’t improve. So, I decided to take an extensive six-month dog training apprenticeship at NobleK9. After that, I worked as a kennel tech, gaining even more hands-on experience with dogs of all breeds and temperaments. I’m a balanced dog trainer, which means I use a mix of reinforcement and clear structure to help dogs become well-behaved and confident! Now, I offer private training and dog walking in Kitchener, focusing on real-world results that make life easier for both you and your dog. If you ever have any questions, I’d be more than happy to have a chat! 😊 The great thing is my schedule is very flexible, so feel free to reach out to arrange a meet and greet! Usually I’m either training dogs or walking them! I worked at a dog training facility so I am very knowledgeable in dog body language and how to keep them safe and happy on walks/visits.
About: I have had animals of all varieties my whole life. I've always been the primary care taker for my animals growing up, from birds, to lizards to dogs and more! I worked in the pet industry for several years and truly enjoy working with animals. I offer 1-on-1 walks and drop-in visits, especially for those times you’re stuck at work all day! I have experience with reactive, anxious, and high energy dogs and can ensure I provide them a safe walking experience to fit their needs. I have had cared for senior dogs and cats, as well as those with daily medications and special diets. If there are any requests for special accommodations just shoot me a message and we can chat more about how I can meet your pet care goals! I'm currently not working as I freshly graduated nursing school! Taking the summer off to study for my exam and looking to spend that time caring for clients and potentially continuing long-term if it’s a good fit! I currently only have one cat in the home who is friendly with dogs and other cats as she grew up around both. I have a fenced in yard and two story home with lots of space. If an animal has any special feeding needs I am able to feed them in separate spaces as needed.
About: I have had a pet puppers my whole life. Our dog passed away a few years ago and since have been fostering. We have fostered 2 dogs over the last two years. Both puppies, one was about 5 months and the other about 1 year. Worked with both on training, association, socialization, walks ect. Our house is not ready for a full time pup again but I still have lots of cuddles to give! I currently work from home. Which offers some flexibility when scheduling. I can also bring my laptop to work from your place as well, weather depending I am not offering in my home services, as to not stress my current animals out. Happy to care for them at your place, where you are familiar with the surrounding!
“Alice needed a male figure since she had one growing up and no longer does. When I come home, Alice is much more calm than she has been in a long time. So glad Walter was able to give her the exercise and play time she needs :) Thank you!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Woodstock
Have been using Amber’s services for our lab and retriever for quite some time now and the affection and attention she gives to the dogs is beyond what we would have expected from a dog walker. She’s also always courteous and quick to reply, even with last minute asks/schedule changes. Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a walker in the greater Woodstock area.
This was my first time using Joshua, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. He showed up right on time and communicated really well. My dog came home happy and relaxed. I appreciate his reliability and the care he provided. I’d definitely book with him again!

There are 1,154 sitters on Rover for Dog Walking in Woodstock. About 86% of Woodstock 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 Woodstock. 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 Woodstock.
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 Woodstock 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 Woodstock 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:
- 86% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
