On July 28, 2021, Rose signed a two-year contract with Reading of the English FA Women's Super League. In her first game of the 2022-23 season, she ruptured her Achilles tendon, forcing her to miss significant playing time.

In August 2016, she helped Canada win their second Olympic bronze medal after scoring the game-opening goal during the third-place match against Brazil, in which Canada won 2–1. Moreover, she became the youngest female Olympic goalscorer, aged 17 years and 169 days. On May 25, 2019, she was named to the roster for the 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup.
