About: I have been dog sitting for about a year now and i have many dogs of my own which includes 7 dogs at my home Pet care is my full time job so it very much fits into my daily and weekly schedule because it’s something i’m always doing consistently. I take care of other peoples pet like how i take care of mine and how i would want other people to take care of my own
About: I have worked and been around animals since I was born. I use to work for a reserve rehabilitator and animal shop owner. I have worked with many breeds of cats and dogs and understand each one can be uniquely different. What works for one may not always work for another. I’m retired navy so I have all day to work with your animals. I can do drop ins throughout the day to check on them to let them out or take on a walk. Pretty flexible schedule. In my home I have a 5 year old husky who has been raised around cats and puppies. He is good at helping correct puppies. He has had one litter of his own pups. I do not have a fenced yard, but can take them on leash in the yard and live in a nice neighborhood to walk your animal. If you want crate training I have a couple already here at the house

“Nicole was amazing! I contacted her last minute to walk my pup and she was completely willing to help me out. Copper seemed happy when we arrived home later. I would definitely book her again :)”
About: Hi! My name is Crissy. I’m a local Sheriff’s Deputy and Nurse with some veterinary care experience, so caring for others—two-legged and four-legged—comes naturally to me. I don’t have any little ones of my own, which means I have plenty of love, attention, and some extra time to share with yours. I’d love the opportunity to care for your fur baby when you can’t be there, whether that means frequent potty breaks, playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply keeping them company. I understand how important it is to know that your pet is safe, happy, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. When your little one is with me, they’ll be treated as if they were my own basked in love, spoiled with attention, and cared for with patience and kindness. Whether you’re working a long shift, away for the day, or simply need an extra helping hand, I’d be honored to be someone you can trust with a member of your family. I look forward to meeting you and your little one(s) soon! 🐾 My schedule allows me to build pet care naturally into my routine, and I’m happy to make time for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention. I understand that pets thrive on consistency, so I do my best to follow their normal schedule as closely as possible. Whether you need care while you’re working, away for the day, or out of town, I’ll make sure your little one gets the time, love, and attention they deserve. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. In your home, I will respect both your pet’s routine and your space, following all feeding, medication, walking, and care instructions as closely as possible. I’m attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, energy, or anything that may indicate your pet is uncomfortable or needs extra attention. My background as a Sheriff’s Deputy, EMT-I, and my veterinary care experience have taught me to stay calm, observant, dependable, and prepared when something unexpected happens. I also take the security of your home seriously. Doors, gates, leashes, and any special safety instructions will always be double-checked. I’ll keep you updated so you can feel confident knowing your little one is safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. Whether your pet wants playtime, cuddles, a quiet companion, or simply someone to keep their normal routine intact, I’ll meet them where they are and care for them with patience, kindness, and plenty of love.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats ranging from young to old, big and small, various personalities, energy levels and administrating medications. This includes rover, work, family and friends, and volunteering at a few vets/adoption organizations. I’m even great with non furry animals. I’ve had/have reptiles and mantises as pets. So I think it’s safe to say I’m a jack of all trades when it comes to taking care of your babies! Also, if you know your pet isn’t super friendly towards other cats or dogs, it’s okay! I’m currently a college student via online courses and a kennel tech with a flexible schedule. Therefore I let the owners choose the times they need or want. I love my fur babies so much. I stay on top of their health, daily exercise at the park, nightly walks and treats! I do the same for any pet because they deserve it!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for 15 years now, when I was a kid the pets were my responsibility, including loving, feeding, walking, washing, etc. Pets have always been a part of my life and always will be! I currently work rotating swing shift my schedule right now for the first full week of the month Friday - Monday 6:30 pm to 6:30 am Off Tuesday - Thursday Friday - Sunday 6:30 am to 6:30 pm Off Monday Tuesday - Thursday 6:30 pm to 6:30 am Off Friday to Sunday Monday - Thursday 6:30 am to 6:30 pm Off Friday to the following Friday During these times I can visit your pet when I get off work and as I’m going in, plus I will use my breaks to visit your pet as they are a hour long so I typically have the time to give your pets the care they need I won’t be taking any pets in my home, but to ensure your babies safety and comfort, I will feed them and water them, after they’ve eaten and are ready to go outside for a potty break I will walk them if needed or take them into your backyard and let them do their business, and will clean up after your pet. Once they’re done I will play with them enough to tire them out so they have a nice long nap before I return to visit them again :)
“DeAndre is dependable, trustworthy, and caring. He goes the extra mile to ensure our pups are well taken care of at all times. He provides photo updates and notes about his walks and visits. I highly recommend him and will continue to book with him.”

About: I am a BIG animal lover! My pets and my friends pets though out my life have always had a special place in my heart. I have been caring from friends and families dogs and cats for 5 years. I have grown up with two family dogs. One of them I had since she was a puppy and the other was a rescue that was around the age of two, but not exactly sure of his age. I am currently working part time for a promotional agency on the weekends. It is flexible and allows me to make my own schedule. Usually I work for 3 hours in the afternoon on a Thursday, Friday, or Saturday. I like to keep other people’s pets on their regularly routines (as far as feeding/medications, etc) and give them penalty of excerise as needed. My goal is to keep them safe, happy, and healthy.

About: I've taken care of a multitude of dogs, big and small, since I was a little girl. I have always loved every kind of animal and love to clean and make sure things are taken care of. I am currently working part time as an administrative assistant at Topgolf, but communication is key! As long as I am given 1-2 weeks advance notice I can make myself available for you. I can easily crate your dog if needed and I am an expert at putting cats in carriers. I read animal body language very well and know when to step in and how to meet their exact needs.
About: I have over 5 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs. I’ve also always had dogs growing up. I’ve worked with dogs for years, where I gained experience caring for dogs with a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’ve also provided pet-sitting services in dogs’ own homes, giving them the comfort of staying in their familiar environment while their owners are away. In addition, I have extensive dog-walking experience and understand the importance of keeping every walk safe, enjoyable, and suited to each dog’s individual pace and personality. What sets me apart is my combination of professional daycare experience, in-home pet sitting, and dog walking. I’m dependable, attentive, and genuinely love getting to know each dog in my care. I treat every pup like my own and strive to give both pets and their owners peace of mind. 🐾❤️ Pet care is something I’m doing part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. My significant other travels for work, and I’m fortunate enough to be able to travel with him, so I’m able to adjust my availability depending on our travel schedule. I’m looking forward to using my flexible schedule to provide reliable, loving care for dogs and giving them the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. 🐾 I understand that staying in a familiar environment can help pets feel more relaxed, especially when their owners are away. I make sure doors, gates, and other areas are secure, follow their normal feeding, walking, and medication routines, and keep a close eye on their behavior and well-being. I also respect their home and leave everything clean and just as I found it.

“My dog Kobe is a high energy breed who needs his speed walks everyday. When I am sick or away, I needed to find someone who can give him the high energy walks he needs and I found that perfect person in Darya! I have used her three times already and already booked her for three more. Kobe comes home happy, excited and tired all in one. Darya has exceeded my expectations!”

About: As a dedicated pet owner and experienced caregiver, I understand that pets are family. Choosing someone to care for them requires trust, and I strive to provide every pet and owner with reliability, professionalism, and peace of mind. I have experience caring for animals through both personal and family settings, including feeding, walking, bathing, grooming, playtime, and attending to their daily needs. I focus on creating a safe, loving, and stress-free environment where pets can feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for while you’re away.

Every pet has their own personality, routines, and comfort levels, and I tailor my care to meet their unique needs. Your pet’s safety is always a top priority. I maintain a pet-friendly environment by keeping spaces clean and free of hazards, securing off-limit areas, and ensuring potentially harmful items remain out of reach. Please let me know about any special instructions, medical needs, routines, fears, or favorite activities your pet may have. The more I know, the better I can provide the personalized care they deserve. I look forward to caring for your furry family members and giving you confidence that they’re in trustworthy, capable, and compassionate hands. Reliable. Certified. Experienced. Caring for your pets like they’re my own. I care for my Titan. We play and I walk him everyday. I am very caring, loving, and gentle with him. I also groom him. He is a also a certified ESA. We work diligently everyday to refine his behavior and I am very patient with the process. I close the doors to rooms they shouldn’t go in.

I've worked in grooming shops and even ran one for about 10 days straight which included boarding (with cat's and dog's), doggy day, care and even washing dogs. It was one of the best jobs I've ever had because I got to play with dogs and help them learn tricks and made sure they had food and fresh water and clean kennels and if meds given on time. I walked them and and played with them too and I felt better knowing there in good care as I know there is a lot of bad care.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 426 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Parksville. 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 Parksville. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
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 Parksville 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.
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 .

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 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 .
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.
