About: I've care for my childhood dog since he was a puppy and all the way till his passing of old age. I have two sister's who all have doggies and they rely on me to care for them when needed. I know the importance of maintaining routine, identifying any triggers they might have, and being alert for any situation. I have a dog of my own, and through training him. i have learned a lot more then i knew before. But of course , you never truly stop learning. I'm excited to get to know each and every pet that i get the chance to meet. I work part time. I'm available 6 am to 10:30 am all days. Weekdays it varies. Some days I'm free until 4 pm. Other days I'm free 5pm till 10 pm. That is why i need a day in advance to know. I live alone with my dog, Zeus. he is super friendly with all dogs but i also have an extra bed room that is not used. whatever it is that you need me to do, i will do it.

Felisha is an absolute GEM 💎 she took such great care of our baby boy Maverick while my Aunt was watching him for us! I believe Maverick even walked better for Felisha then he does for my husband and I 😂 My Aunt couldn’t say enough great things about Felisha and stated ANYONE in the area that needed some help with their pup 🐶 should use her! Thank you so much Felisha we will definitely use you again!

Mackenzie is so good with our elderly dog. She patiently walks him at his pace and let him sniff all his favorite spots. We are very happy to have found a compassionate caring person to care for our dog when we can’t be there. We have also had an excellent experience with her watching him for a week at our home and are repeat customers.

Misty was great! She cared for my two dogs for an evening at her house which has a fenced yard so they could be outside much of the time, which they love. She was very loving and caring, and took great care of them. Highly recommended!

Couldn’t have asked for a better walker. He fit Logan into his busy schedule which meant a lot to me. I have tendinitis so I can’t walk my dog right now so trying to find someone to walk him in such short notice wasn’t easy. Definitely a life saver!

About: I have been surrounded by the love of four paws my entire life between friends or family and my own sweet fur babies (and cute gecko). I have been trusted to care for others’ fur babies from dog walking to pet check-ins over the last 5 years. My love for all animals guarantees exceptional care (and lovings) for your pets! My flexible career schedule gives me plenty of opportunities throughout the week to provide mindful walks, attentive care, and lots of love for your fur baby! I am mindful of my surroundings at all times to ensure there is safety, which applies for your four legged friend as well with my attentiveness for their care.

About: I got my first dog when I was 6 years old and have taken care of them ever since. On multiple occasions I’ve cared for and walked my neighbors and friend’s dogs as well. I’m a student at Michigan state university but I often come home to my family. I’m available most days in the week, depending on my academic schedule. I live in a condo with my family and thus, will be going to clients houses rather than keeping their dogs in my house. I will also be available to walk their dogs as well.

About: I have skills caring for animals and pet sitting from several years working on farms, as well as three years of experience with Trusted Housesitter. I love animals generally speaking, and have previously cared for dogs, cats, birds, horses, goats, pigs, llamas. I feel well equipped to give lots of love, keep on your feeding schedules, get everybody the exercise they need, attend to milking, and to take care of medication’s as needed. I’m glad to work with repeat-care as well as new pets. I work a job with some fluidity for scheduling based on your pet and home needs. Generally, my schedule has flexibility, and I love getting out for walks and movement frequently in the day! My friendly aussi shepherd may join in walks. If your pup is accustomed to one of the area off-leash spots, I’m glad to discuss the notion of taking them there. I’m always caring and affectionate with animals, and ready to help them maintain their routine while you’re away. I have plenty of time in the mornings, evenings, and weekends for morning-depth connection, and can guarantee potty breaks or time outside every 2-4 hours during my working hours. If in your home, I’m glad to grab mail, packages, attend to watering, or other such things as needed. I also have previous experience caring for farms/farm animals, and am glad to discuss such needs.

About: I grew up with pets since I was brought home as a baby! Along with that, I’ve cat and dog sat for family members and I guess I’m just willing to expand! I’m working part time this summer so that means I still have a lot of free time! I am available to help out routinely until I go back to school or one time jobs too! My cats are indoor cats and I guess the fact that they never try to get outside is a reflection for how well they are cared for! I also had a dog growing up and a lot of my friends do so I have been surrounded by cats and dogs for a long time.

I plan my schedule around their feeding times, exercise and companionship, ensuring they feel loved, safe and cared for every moment you’re away. Whether it’s a single visit or multiple days in a row, I treat their routing as my priority. When pets stay with me, I make sure they feel like part of my family from the moment they arrive. I create a safe, cozy space with their favorite toys, comfy bedding and plenty of love. I stick to their usual feeding schedule, give them daily walks and playtime. And keep them engaged with cuddles enrichment activities and gentle companionship. my home is pet friendly, secure and full of warmth so they feel right at home.

About: Hi, I'm Lucy! I'm a lover of all things small, cute, and fluffy. I've grown up around yorkies, pomeraninans, and other small breeds so I know them best - their unique, sweet, loving, and sometimes yappy souls hold a special place in my heart. ;) I love and respect these kind creatures with everything in me! My rescue dog ended up being pregnant! So I learned how to care for 4 pom ups from birth. I love to connect and care for animals with the same attention, warmth, and kindness I would want for my own. I know how difficult it can be to leave your pets for vacation, so I want to create a safe space in my care that you and your dogs feel comfortable with! I send lots of detailed updates and photos of your furbaby :) My profile is new! So I would be honored to earn your trust to be your sitter - i'm happy to set up a meet and greet before we lock in the real dates to make you more comfortable if you prefer! I work full time remotely, so I have flexibility to pop in as needed. I have full weekend availability and can usually do mornings and evenings on weekdays, or afternoons if you are nearby. When in a clients home, I treat it with extreme respect. I tread lightly and only come in to care for your pets and take boundaries seriously as this is your personal space, your comfort is my priority!

Samantha is Amazing. Drake suffer from anxiety & fear. Instantly Drake took to Samantha, which lets me know that Drake feels safe with her!! I mentioned to Samantha that I would like to someday take Drake for a walk on a trail or to a park. She told me about a trail she knew & asked if she could take Drake there for his walk today and I said that would be awesome. After their time walking on the trail, Samantha sent me photos of the walk and let me know that Drake had a great time exploring new things and that he was a good boy. Over the last 6 months, Drake has been in training to develop skills to help cope with his anxiety & fear. Thank you so much Samantha for the patience and love you showed Drake today!! Taking him on trail walk with good behavior lets me know that his trainings working!! You will definitely be the 1st person I contact to care for Drake in the future!!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Sylvan Lake

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Sylvan Lake on Rover is $27.75 per walk (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 3,942 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Sylvan Lake. 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 Sylvan Lake. 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 Sylvan Lake.

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 Sylvan Lake. On Rover:

  • 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
