About: I have taken care of friends and family members dogs for years. Whether it be for a week or just a short walk, I’m always up for a jaunt with a friendly animal! Big or small, they all love walks and playing! I am currently looking for work with animals and have a flexible schedule. Would love to help out on a consistent basis! If checks ins, walks, play dates are needed, I'm your guy. I have my two cats at home and cannot currently take more animals in here for watching, but have a car to transport to the pets in need! I am a clean person, will tidy up after the animals and will follow whatever rules are put in place.

About: I was an animal care manager for five years. I oversaw all care for various different species, ensuring they all received the best care possible and to the company’s protocol. I have also volunteered at a local shelter for the past two years, which has led me to do lots of pet sitting outside of the shelter for fellow volunteers. I have also done lots of semi-feral cat socialization in foster homes to help aid stray cats into becoming adoptable! I love dogs as well and have always been around dogs my whole life. I enjoy pet sitting so much and I strive to make your pet as happy as possible! I have free availability at the moment which makes me very flexible in terms of pet care. I am willing to work with you for any times that you need! I can easily adapt to any routine you may have with your fur baby. I follow directions well and love the pets as if they were my own.

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and I’m well educated on them. I’ve also worked at a doggy daycare and do dog grooming now so I’ve learned lots of tips and tricks. I have my own dog named Finley who is a mini Australian shepherd. I would love to help attend and take care of your fur babies!! I’ve decided I want to switch my job and do something I love more which is to be with animals! I have lots of free time coming up and would love to spend it with more dogs! I have a big yard, and live on a bog which means lots of fun walks and adventures! My dog loves running and being outside playing fetch, and I would of course do any dogs favorite thing such as walks, swims, fetch, and more! My dog gets crated as needed, and of course if your fur baby is under my care then I will be going by your rules and how you prefer things for your dog.

About: I have extensive experience raising dogs in my home starting from my late high school years. My family has had three Cavalier King Charles Spaniels 🐶 that I’ve helped raise and care for, for almost 5 years now! This includes potty training, feeding, grooming, walking, administering medicine, and many other care tasks. This includes pets with long-lasting illnesses.

I am here for you if that is to happen! I am also able to help with recurring/routine care. Whatever you need, I can help with! Because I have pets in my own home, I will mostly be working in clients’ homes. I am a clean and respectful house guest, and I will do whatever I can to make your pet feel safe and loved with a stranger.

About: Love both cats and dogs. Love both species..I am available from Nov. 15th thru May 1st in Florida and in MA from May 15th thru October 31st.. I have a very good repour with both cats and dogs. All my neighbors have animals, mostly dogs, and they all have taken to me. People that have animals need someone to care for their pets and love their pets just as much as the owners due and it's very important to find those special type of people and I think that I am one of those persons. Love them all and care for them like their human beings and sometime they are! My daily routine depends on what the animal requires of me. Walking is very important to a dog and they like to get out and smell their surroundings. I will take dogs out if needed by the clients during the day or whenever needed by them. Two to three times a day if needed

Jay is amazing! This has been my first round with the dog walker. I am new to town in a very over sensitive helicopter dog, Mom. I cannot express enough how great the career has been for my dog Benji. Jay was more than willing to do a meet and greet with me prior to booking so that I could see if there was a good vibe. There was definitely a good vibe. Trusting and loving my dog in a situation where I can’t be at home is something that I strive for and I definitely found it in Jay! Highly recommended!

Whether it’s a quick walk, a fresh groom, or just some love and attention while you’re away, your dog will be treated like family with me. I truly love dogs with my whole heart, and it shows in everything I do.💕🐶🐾 I am currently doing dog grooming from out of my house so I am free really any time of the day during the week and same going with the weekend i update my calendar every week so it is always up to date !

About: I grew up with two German Shepherds, Duke and Thor. Eventually after Duke passed away we got Brie who was a "K9 drop out". My brother has a German Shepherd named Kai, my dad has a 3 legged chocolate lab, Bixby, and two cats, Socks and Olaf, that I frequently care for. I am familiar with small, medium, and large breeds. Dogs with behavioral issues, food aggression or dogs that require specific instructions. I am an early riser, I go to the gym and run before work. If you have a high energy dog, I am a good fit for you. I will make sure your pup is tired by the end of our visit. I will make sure your pet is safe by making sure there are no hazards and if we go for a walk I will keep your pet on a leash and protected against any threat. I have had many dogs off leash run up to myself and a clients dog and I always put myself in-between my clients dog and the others.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Halifax

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Halifax on Rover is $14.27 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 .

As of July 2026, there are 9,188 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Halifax. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 your Halifax. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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 traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Halifax.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s walk begins.

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.

Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

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 .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Halifax. On Rover:

  • 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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.

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.

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.
