About: I talk to my dog like she is an understanding human. I sometimes wonder if all owners do that too. If you dog like hugs I do too! A let is a priory like any child. They need humans for their basics needs, but also for attention, love and walking in the beautiful nature. They all love walking, don’t they. Either your pet is with me at my place or at your place: they should be safe and cozy and able to relax, and so should you. Have total peace of mind.
“Andrée was fantastic! My dog, Hugo, loved his time with her. She was easy to communicate with and provided exceptional care. Andree's inspiring personality made the experience even better. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. Thank you, Andrée!”
“My dog Scrufus was kept by Sylvie and is very knowledgeable and experienced in minding dogs. She kept me sending pics of my dog and texting me how my dog is doing. Which reassured me that I have confidence in Sylvie.”
“Kim a été extraordinaire avec Jasper 🤗 Elle a su le mettre à l’aise pour cette première rencontre. Jasper revient à la maison reposé et il a déjà hâte à sa prochaine journée avec elle. 🫶”
“Catherine was very patient and kind with our dog. We were able to set up a visit with her and her family, one day before the drop off day , which helped our dog Luna feel more comfortable. Luna was well cared for by Catherine and her 2 children, Jacob and Emma. Merci Beaucoup!”
“Loretta was incredible with our dog Isla. She made arrangements to take our pet last minute and made sure she was well taken care of. Isla got to socialize with her own two pups and she took her for several walks and made her feel comfortable. Highly recommend Loretta and will use her again when we’re in town.”
“Daniela did an amazing job watching our fur babies. Vito took to her right away and ran right to her. She’s definitely a dog person! I like that she was very responsive and flexible. I would definitely ask her to watch Vito again when we’re in town.”

About: Nous avons un Berger Blanc Suisse de 2 ans, Sirius, un gros toutou qui adore avoir de la compagnie ! 🐶🤍 Nous pouvons accueillir des chiens de toutes tailles. Avec Sirius à la maison, nous sommes déjà bien habitués aux grands chiens et à leur énergie. 😄 Votre pitou sera accueilli comme à la maison : il aura accès à toutes les pièces et pourra également profiter de notre cour pour prendre l’air, jouer et se dépenser. 🌿🐾 Nous avons aussi la chance d’avoir un bois juste à côté de la maison, où nous partons généralement faire au minimum deux belles marches par jour, une le matin et une le soir. 🌲🐕 Et pendant les belles journées d’été, nous avons également accès à un lac où les toutous peuvent aller se rafraîchir. 💦☀️ À la maison, côté jeux, il y a de quoi faire ! Nous avons une malle remplie de balles, cordes, bâtons et autres jouets. Bref, entre les balades dans le bois, les moments de jeu, les baignades et les temps tranquilles à la maison, votre pitou fera vraiment partie de notre quotidien pendant son séjour. Nous serions ravis de l’accueillir… et Sirius sera tout aussi content de se faire un nouveau copain ! 🐶🤍 Nous travaillons plusieurs jours par semaine en télétravail, ce qui nous permet d’être présents à la maison avec les chiens la majorité du temps. 🐶🤍 En général, nous avons seulement deux journées par semaine où nous devons nous absenter pour le travail. Lors de ces journées, nos horaires sont de 8 h à 16 h 30 maximum. Pour une garde en semaine, il est donc important que votre chien soit propre et habitué à pouvoir rester seul environ 8 à 9 heures, puisque nous ne pouvons pas garantir une présence à la maison tous les jours. Lors de nos journées en télétravail, nous sommes présents avec eux toute la journée. Selon la météo et la chaleur, les chiens peuvent profiter du jardin ou rester confortablement à l’intérieur de la maison. ☀️🌿 La maison ainsi que le jardin sont équipés de caméras de surveillance, ce qui nous permet également de garder un œil sur eux lorsque nécessaire. Mon conjoint Benjamin sera lui aussi présent à la maison selon ses horaires, et les week-ends, nous sommes généralement disponibles et profitons pleinement du temps avec les toutous. 🥰 Notre objectif est vraiment que votre chien s’intègre à notre quotidien et se sente comme à la maison pendant son séjour. 🐾 Nous avons la chance de vivre dans une impasse très calme, avec très peu de circulation et loin des grands axes routiers. Autour de la maison, c’est surtout la nature : un bois pour les balades et un lac à proximité où les chiens peuvent se rafraîchir pendant l’été. 🌲💦🐾 Notre cour à l’arrière de la maison est ouverte et non clôturée, avec de la verdure et des espaces ombragés. Il se peut que les chiens soient amenés à y jouer, se détendre ou simplement profiter de l’extérieur avec Sirius. 🐶 Pour cette raison, nous préférons accueillir des chiens qui écoutent bien, ont un bon rappel et n’ont pas tendance à fuguer. La sécurité des chiens que nous accueillons est vraiment importante pour nous, et nous souhaitons pouvoir leur faire profiter de notre environnement en toute tranquillité.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
There are 42 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in Barkmere. About 79% of Barkmere sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
Help your dog become familiar with the day-care environment before their first full day. Arrange a Meet & Greet so they can visit the sitter’s home, meet the sitter and any resident pets, and explore the space while you are there. This can make the environment feel more familiar and help you and the sitter confirm that the setup is right for your dog.
Pack anything you and the sitter have agreed your dog will need, such as:
- Their usual food and approved treats, with feeding instructions
- Medication, with clear dosage instructions, if needed
- Their collar or harness and other walking equipment
- Familiar comfort items, such as a blanket or favourite toy
- Any seasonal gear they may need
On the day of the booking, keep your dog’s normal routine as consistent as possible, including their usual meal, toilet break, and some light exercise. Keep drop-off calm and brief, which may help make the transition easier.
If your dog is shy, nervous, or needs more time to adjust to unfamiliar places, ask whether a shorter introductory stay is possible before their first full day.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. Every sitter on Rover has their own routine and some may offer flexible activities suited for your dog. 100% of sitters in your city can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays.
These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Barkmere commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they do not have any disqualifying offences.
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.
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.
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 sitter 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 sitter 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 sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in QC ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines such as the DHPP or DA2PP, Rabies, and Bordetella.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% 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.
sitters 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 sitter.
