About: I’ve had pets my entire life and truly love animals. Being a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m familiar with the daily care, attention, exercise, and affection that pets need. I treat every pet as if they were my own and would love the opportunity to give your furry family member the same love and care! I am soon to be unemployed as my seasonal job is almost done, so I will have plenty of time to take care of your pets. I am available almost everyday with short notice and would love the chance to get to know your pet! At my home I have trained my dogs to stay on property as we do not have fences, they like the freedom and listen very well. I do have a lot of experience with pets on leashes as I once did live in town where I had to use the leash for walks and getting around.

About: I’ve been training dogs since 2017, and along the way my clients noticed how loving and dedicated I was with their pups so they started asking me to take care of them too! I’ve done daycare, overnight stays, even cared for pups for weeks or months while families traveled, always making sure they felt safe, loved and happy. I’ve got lots of experience with puppies and senior dogs. I’m patient, attentive, and treat them like family. Friends even ask me to save a spot for their furry babies! Plus my 4-year-old daughter Mia absolutely adores them and loves helping me care for our furry guests! With us your pup won’t just be cared for, they’ll feel right at home. 🐾💛 I’m home full-time, so I’m available every day, all day! That means your furry friend will never be alone. They will have company, attention, playtime, and lots of love all day long. 😊 I make sure every pet feels part of the family while they’re here. Whether it’s cuddle time, play breaks, or just keeping them comfortable and happy, I’ve got them covered.🥰 At my place your pet will feel right at home! I live in a house with a fenced yard where they can run, play or even relax and get some fresh air (always supervised, of course!). Whether your pet stays with me or I visit your home, I always make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I adapt to their needs, routines, and energy levels.

“Amy is incredibly responsible and reliable. She kindly accepted my last-minute request and helped walk Xiaolao when I was extremely busy and overwhelmed. I’m truly grateful for her help. During the past two days of walks, Xiaolao clearly enjoyed spending time with her and looked very happy and comfortable. If I ever need help again, I will definitely reach out to Amy without hesitation. Highly recommended!”

“I can’t recommend Randy enough! When I faced an emergency and couldn’t be there for my three ESA bullies, who are my world, Randy stepped in and went above and beyond. He cared for them like they were his own, feeding them, walking them, and even taking them by the river. He adapted perfectly to my rescue, and even helped him gain confidence despite being scared of his own shadow, and made sure all three felt safe and happy. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such capable and caring hands. Truly outstanding service—thank you, Randy!”

About: **About Me – Animal Experience 🐶🐱** I am an animal lover who enjoys spending time with and caring for animals. I understand the importance of treating animals with kindness, patience, and respect. I am willing to learn about their individual needs and help provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment. I am responsible, caring, and passionate about animal welfare, and I would love the opportunity to gain more experience working with animals. I'm currently working full time that's 8 hours a day that's why I can only do Sat or Sun once a week only if possible. I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their own environment. I follow the owner's instructions for feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, and any special care needs. I provide plenty of attention, gentle playtime, and affection while respecting each cat's personality and boundaries. I also keep their space clean and watch for any changes in their behaviour or health. My goal is to make sure every pet feels happy, relaxed, and well cared for while their owner is away.

About: My name is Carla and i love animals. I have a pet myself. He's a 8 year old Siamese cat named Tommy! I love my pet with all my heart and wouldn't let anything bad to happen to him. If you trust me with your furry friend, you will get the best of the best service a pet sitter can provide, like they are my own. That includes countless hours of cuddles and play time! I'll ensure your pet is safe and well taken care off while you're away, at the same time trying to minimize the effects of your absence by keeping your pet distracted. I strive to provide quality service that includes: frequent visits, overnight staying, weekend sitting (day and night) and pet walks. If you're looking for a loving pet-sitter that really cares for your pet, don't hesitate to call. Thank you! I have a lot of free time and I would love to do more pet sitting. I feel confortable around animals and nature, so it's a natural thing for me. I will respect customer's boundaries and rules and keep the pet safe. I'll try to minimize the effect the owners absence creates on their pets, with special care when needed, lots of play and cuddles. I can't have pets at my house, because I have 2 cats.

About: I have cared for pets from friends and family and have experience working with rescue dogs who needed extra patience, understanding, and care due to behavioral challenges. I’m comfortable adapting to each pet’s unique personality and needs and always strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I am currently working part-time so I am flexible and available to meet your needs! My weekends are usually free, and so are my mornings and afternoons.

About: Hi there! thanks for checking out my profile. Happy to have you here. I will leave a brief but detailed synopsis about myself and my experience working with pets. My goal is to help you make an informed decision regarding your pet's stay while you are away. My name is Vee. I am a university student full of vibrant energy and a love for pets. I have five years of documented experience in pet sitting. I have had pets of all sorts and breed under my care. Domestic pets such as cats, dogs, birds, horses and reptiles I have attended to. I am well vexed in this field as I volunteered with an animal shelter catering to older pets. I loved it! I am certified in CPR for pets should an emergency arise. I take pride in my vigilance and accessibility. I am a student of life and love to learn as much as I can and build amazing friendships with pet owners while taking great care of their pets! I would also like to describe myself as trustworthy. I am organized and my love for pets shows in various aspects. I have excellent multitasking and communication skills. I am also really good at recalling names. Cruelty-free enthusiast. Can’t wait to meet you and start taking care of these amazing pets! Thank you for trusting me to care for your babies while you take a well-deserved break 😊 I am available all year round to accept bookings and do my best to respond to bookings in a timely manner. I am honest and transparent about my hours and will not take any more bookings than necessary. I am extremely passionate about this business. I try not to overwhelm myself as this is important to me. I aim to be the best sitter I can be and strive for perfection each stay. I do not overcharge for stays and my low prices for stays are deliberate. I do this for the company as I enjoy having pets around while I study. It's a win-win. I formulated a couple of games to occupy and tire out your pet for the entirety of their stay. I will send photos of the entirety of the stay and keep in touch so you have peace of mind. I have spare toys in my care also, but always recommend bringing your own. I have had pets with severe anxiety and having a piece of home, be it a blanket or toys that smell like home helps a ton. As far as safety, I have a fenced yard in my apartment and will never let a pet off-leash especially if your pet does not have any recall. I enjoy practicing training with pets also and have successfully conditioned some to learn commands. I offer grooming services as well at no extra cost, except showers/baths. Your pet is in safe hands and you will have nothing to worry about while they are in my care. I will make sure of that.

About: I’ve been around dogs of all sizes breeds and personalities my whole life. I am comfortable and confident caring for dogs that are small, large, shy, social young or old. For the past two years, I have volunteered as an advanced dog walker with Edmonton Humane Society, where I have received hands-on training with their expert Behaviour Team. I’m currently completing an online diploma, which gives me a very flexible schedule. This means I’m available for pet care throughout the week and on weekends morning afternoon or evening. Since my studies are self-paced I am able to easily prioritize your pets needs and give them attention time and care they deserve whenever it’s needed. While I don’t host pets in my own home, I have plenty of experience, caring for pets in their own space and staying at clients homes. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and secure in a familiar environment so I always do my best to maintain the usual routine Whether it’s drop visits or overnight stays I treat your home and your pet with the utmost care and respect

FAQs for Dog Walking - Zephyr

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Many sitters respond to requests in under an hour. Whether you are planning ahead for public holidays, need last-minute care, or same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once.

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 Zephyr. 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 bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Zephyr after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the 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 Zephyr 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.

walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

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 Zephyr 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.
