About: I provide attentive, reliable, and compassionate care tailored to each pet’s unique needs. What sets me apart is my commitment to treating every pet like a member of my own family. I take the time to understand their routines, personalities, and preferences to ensure they feel comfortable, safe, and happy while you’re away. I have experience caring for pets of all ages, including energetic puppies who need consistent training and socialization, as well as senior pets who require extra patience, medication management, and gentle care. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, administering medications, daily exercise, and reinforcing basic training commands. My goal is to provide a stress-free experience for both pets and their owners through regular updates, clear communication, and dependable care you can trust. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine alongside my part-time work schedule. I have flexible availability and can provide dependable care during mornings, evenings, weekends, and many weekdays. I make sure to dedicate quality time to each pet for walks, feeding, playtime, companionship, and any special care they may need. Because I work part-time, I can maintain a balanced schedule that allows me to give pets the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. I am committed to being reliable, punctual, and responsive, ensuring your pet’s routine remains consistent and stress-free while you’re away. Safety, comfort, and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. Whether I am caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I strive to maintain their normal routine to help them feel secure and stress-free. I ensure pets always have access to fresh water, regular meals, exercise, and plenty of attention. I carefully follow all instructions provided by pet owners, including feeding schedules, medication needs, exercise requirements, and any special preferences. During walks and outdoor time, I prioritize safety by keeping pets securely leashed and supervised at all times. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and provide regular updates, photos, and communication for peace of mind. My goal is to create a safe, loving, and reliable environment where pets feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away.

About: Hey hey! My love for animals runs deep. Growing up, my family always had animals. We had rabbits, dogs, cats, and horses. Professionally, I have taken care of dogs and cats since high school. As a tree hugger through and through, your fur babies will be loved, adored, and showered with tons of attention. I would love the opportunity to walk your fur babies, stay with them while you’re away, or simply check on them during the day. I know how important our fur babies are to us, and for this reason, I promise and guarantee to treat yours as if they are my own. I will provide pictures and videos of my time with your babies! Also, please note that I do NOT require crate training or anything of that nature. I want your fur baby’s time away from you to be as close to their normal routine as possible. While I have two puppies of my own (Wren and Quill), they have the most fantastic grandma who loves to watch and snuggle them while I housesit for you! :) I am in my final semester of graduate school, which means I have ample time to spend with your animals. I prefer to housesit instead of drop-ins. Typically, with housesitting, your pets are more comfortable! I am a graduate student and work part-time; therefore, I can fit your perfect fur babies into my schedule at any time. I have open availability and would love the chance to get some animal snuggles in. Safety is my top priority! I will carefully follow your instructions and will diligently ensure your baby is safe while in my care. This is a promise!

About: I have 3 years of experience working in an animal shelter, where I was lucky enough to care for animals of all kinds. I am familiar with the necessary care needed for pets of all ages, from baby to senior. I am practiced in giving medication and basic grooming/ maintenance, as well as having worked with trainers in the past though I am not credentialed. Due to my history, I am also experienced working with animals with behavioural issues and am not intimidated by the size of a pet. I am currently between jobs and, therefore, am able to move around my schedule at will. I have a reliable form of transportation that allows me to be wherever you need me to be when you need me to be there. My apartment is not large enough, nor would the complex allow me to, house animals not already on my lease, but I am physically capable of taking dogs out multiple times per day on walks (duration depends on the heat). I play with my own animals multiple times a day for at least 20 minutes each, so rest assured your cats will also get the exercise they deserve. I will go above and beyond for your pets simply because I believe they deserve it.

About: I have owned dogs all my life, little ones to large dogs. I enjoy what dogs have to offer us humans and their own unique personalities. I will walk your dog, take them to the dog park or just come and hang out with them so they are not alone all day. I know how some dogs have issues with separation anxiety and I would like to help with that. I want their humans to feel more at ease while their away at work or vacation. Resorts can be stressful for some fur babies. I have experience working in veterinary clinics and pet resorts. I am able to give meds to the pet if needed. I'm available any time during the day and most weekends. If you have questions, please feel free to email me or call! Currently working full time but that doesn’t take away from taking care of your fur babies. I am able to drop in visits or in house sitting. I would prefer staying at the clients home. It is less stressful on the pet. I have a full house so may be uncomfortable for them.

We have met amazing dog sitters on rover that have helped our family out tremendously and we would love to do that for others as well! We have done plenty of dog sitting, walking, etc. with friends fur babies and it is always so much fun to meet other dogs and get to know their little personalities! I am currently taking a break from nursing contracts right now. I have a lot of flexibility. Please reach out as I’d love to meet your fur baby and help out in ANY way I can! My dogs and I love to go on long walks outside and after we are nice and tired come inside and cuddle or play some more!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Runaway Bay

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of September 2026, there are 310 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Runaway Bay. 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 Runaway Bay. 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 Runaway Bay.

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 Runaway Bay. On Rover:

  • 96% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
