About: With six years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and ages, I’m comfortable with a variety of needs and personalities. The majority of my experience has come from drop-in visits, including walks and playtime, but I have also home-boarded a senior dog for a week or more on many occasions, including twice-daily medication, so I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and attentive care. My full-time job does not start until 2:00pm, so I am available for any mornings and early afternoons during the week. On weekends, I have late afternoon and evening availability. I am an active person who is up for long, easy strolls or push the pace with a run. I am happy to snuggle on the couch, play fetch or tug-of-war in the yard, or continue your work on basic commands.

While I take care of your pet I hope to keep a safe and happy environment for your pet. If you let me know of any needs that your animal has.

About: I have experience with walking, house sitting, care of elderly dogs, obedience training, etc. I love dogs both large and small, from Great Danes to toy poodles and have experience with all kinds of breeds in between. Along with house sitting, I am comfortable feeding pets and visiting throughout the day to let them out/play/or walk them or stay the night to watch the house and pets. Besides dogs I am also experienced at taking care of other pets such as small critters (including chinchillas, rabbits, guinea pigs, reptiles, etc.), cats, birds, and fish. Any special treatment that your pet needs I am willing to learn their needs, such as medication, bathing, etc. I have experience working at a vet so I know how to administer insulin shots and take care of other medical needs. I will go above and beyond to make sure your pet is happy and taken care of! I am in between jobs right now but will be working remotely from home so I have lots of flexibility and plenty of time to spend with your pet. I do not care for pets in my home but will take care of pets in any type of home from houses to apartments to hotels etc. Whatever is requested such as crating, walking, or just letting outside into the backyard I am willing and able to do.

About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 10 years, starting with dog walking when I was 12. I began by walking and caring for two dogs, while also helping care for three cats. I currently have three cats that I have raised since birth, so I’m comfortable with kittens, adult cats, and the patience and attention they require. I’ve also had five dogs throughout my life, giving me plenty of experience understanding different personalities, routines, and needs. I’m dependable, caring, and treat every pet like they’re my own! I currently work as a bartender and have two part-time jobs, but my schedule is flexible and gives me plenty of time to care for pets. I’m happy to work with different schedules and make sure your cat gets the attention, care, and companionship they need while you’re away. I provide pet care in the client’s home, where pets are most comfortable and familiar with their surroundings. I treat every home with respect and make sure doors are secure, pets are safe, and their routines are followed closely. I’m responsible, trustworthy, and will provide updates so you can feel confident your pets are happy and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and cats my entire life, so caring for animals has always been something I genuinely enjoy. My family has trusted me to care for their pets over the years, whether that means feeding them, taking them for walks, giving them plenty of attention, or simply keeping them company. I also had the opportunity to regularly care for a family’s dog for over two years, which gave me valuable hands-on experience and taught me how important it is to understand each pet’s individual personality, routine, and needs. I treat every pet in my care like they’re part of my own family and strive to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy and want to make an important part of my life. I plan to make caring for pets a priority and dedicate the time and attention needed to make sure every pet feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I understand that pets are family, and I want to provide them with the same love, patience, and attention I would want someone to give my own pets. I’m excited to build a routine around pet sitting and create a dependable experience for both pets and their owners. When caring for pets in someone’s home, their safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I make sure to follow each pet’s routine and their owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, walks, playtime, and any specific needs they may have. I also pay close attention to their behavior and surroundings to help prevent accidents and make sure they feel safe and comfortable while their family is away. I treat every home with the same respect and care that I would want someone to show my own home and pets.

About: I have been an animal lover my entire life, and caring for pets has always been a true passion of mine. Over the past 20 years, I’ve had the joy of caring for a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, chinchillas, ferrets, fish, hamsters, and even axolotls! I recently lost my two senior Chihuahuas ,so I understand the extra patience, attention, and specialized care that senior pets may need throughout the day. I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, comfortable, and cared for like family. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, companionship, medication reminders, or simply some extra cuddles while you’re away, I’m committed to providing dependable, compassionate care tailored to their individual needs. I recently became a stay-at-home mom for the first time, which has given me the flexibility to dedicate more time to caring for animals. I’m currently available 7 days a week and would love the opportunity to provide your pets with the same love, attention, and care that I give my own. I believe pets are happiest when they can stay in the comfort and familiarity of their own home. I’m happy to follow each owner’s instructions and maintain their pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, medication, cuddles, or simply providing companionship, I’m willing to do whatever is needed to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll treat your home and your pets with the same care and respect I would want for my own.

I run my own pressure washing business, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for pet sitting. Being self-employed allows me to manage my time well and make sure pets receive consistent care, attention, walks, and companionship throughout the day! I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions from the owner. I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while providing plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship in both my home and my client’s home!

About: I’ve been a dedicated dog mom for 6 years and have experience caring for dogs through all kinds of situations — from energetic puppy stages to recovery days that require extra patience, comfort, and attention. I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet with someone, and I’ll care for them like family. Pet care is already a big part of my daily life. My days naturally revolve around walks, playtime, feeding schedules, outdoor time, and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, whether that’s going on walks, relaxing together, or giving extra attention when they need comfort and patience. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, medication instructions if needed, and make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and comfort. I also respect my clients’ homes by keeping things clean, secure, and providing updates so they can feel at ease while they’re away.

About: I have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, including my own dog who lived with diabetes and eventually lost her vision. During that time, I was responsible for administering daily insulin injections, managing a specialized prescription diet, monitoring her health, and ensuring she remained comfortable and happy. This experience taught me patience, attention to detail, and how to care for pets with unique medical needs. In addition to caring for my own dog, I have regularly looked after my siblings' dogs and friends' pets, providing feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and plenty of love. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work part-time and am self-employed, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be available throughout the day. I can accommodate walks, drop-in visits, feedings, playtime, and check-ins around each pet's specific needs. Because I have control over my work schedule, I can provide reliable care and give pets the attention they deserve rather than fitting them into a busy routine. I enjoy spending time with animals and make it a priority to ensure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client's home, I make it a priority to follow their established routine as closely as possible. I understand that pets feel most comfortable in their familiar environment, so I ensure they receive their regular feeding schedule, exercise, playtime, medications if needed, and plenty of attention and companionship. I treat every home with respect, keeping it clean and secure while following any instructions provided by the owner. I also provide updates and photos so pet parents can have peace of mind knowing their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while they're away.

About: I worked in an animal hospital for a couple of years. I have watched furbabies (cats and dogs) of family and friends for many years and even have office dogs at my job! I am mainly available during the weekends but can occasionally do evenings during the weekdays after my full time job. I work from home during Fridays so I am fully available then too. I would prefer to pet sit in an environment that your furbaby is already familiar with aka your home! I’d also be happy to take them (dogs) to a park or trail for them to explore as I love taking long walks.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Saint John

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Saint John is $22 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $28 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 4,985 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Saint John. 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 Saint John. 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 , 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 Saint John 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 , 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 .

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

  • 84% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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 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 .

walkers on Rover set their own , 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.
