About: I am a natural with dogs. Some people have a maternal instincts with their kids, I have it with dogs. I still don't have a dog of my own but I still want to spend every time possible near one. If you leave your dog with me, you will get a dog sitter that is very attentive and that will give it all. I took care of some dogs of friends and family but it's the first time trying it on a platform like this. I'm currently between the end of university and the start of my career so I have all the time of the world to be with your dog. I am someone that spends a lot of time outside so I can care easily for a dog that needs to be active a lot
“Junya did an excellent job taking care of my 3 year old border collie, while I was on vacation. She spent 11 days dog and house sitting. I came back home with my dog happy and healthy. As well as with my house being well maintained and respected. Thank you so much!!”
“Friendly, tidy, flexible, and responsive. Lindsay cared for our cats and dog while we were away. An unexpected issue had occurred with our return flights, which Lindsay was understanding and flexible with. She followed the instructions we left with regards to our pets, and tidied our apartment before we returned, which was very thoughtful! We recommend her, and would use her services again.”
About: I’ve always loved animals, they truly feel like family to me. I was a devoted cat mom to my Bengal for over 11 years, and caring for him shaped how attentive and patient I am with pets. Losing him was very hard, and offering pet care now feels like a meaningful way to continue sharing that love. Over the years, I’ve cared for both cats and large dogs, including a 130-lb Rottweiler/Bernese mix. I’m comfortable handling strong breeds, structured walks, and different energy levels. What sets me apart is my calm and responsible nature. As a flight attendant, safety, routine, and clear communication are part of my everyday life. I pay attention to details, follow instructions carefully, and respect both your pet’s routine and your home. I’m comfortable with: • Oral medication • Senior pets • High-energy personalities • Maintaining feeding and walk schedules • Sending regular photo updates I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone. My goal is always to make them feel safe, cared for, and relaxed while you’re away.
“Service exceptionnel du début à la fin ! 😊 Mes chiens ont été traités aux petits soins tout au long du week-end, et j'ai pu partir l'esprit complètement tranquille. On sent immédiatement son amour des animaux, son professionnalisme et son grand souci du détail. En plus d'avoir pris merveilleusement soin de mes chiens, elle a même pris le temps de faire un peu de ménage et de ranger avant son départ, une attention vraiment appréciée. Je suis plus que satisfait de son service et je referai affaire avec elle sans aucune hésitation. Je la recommande à 100 % à tous ceux qui recherchent une personne de confiance pour leurs compagnons à quatre pattes !”

“Emy s’est occupée de mes «deux petites filles poilues» durant 10 jours à la maison chez moi. Deux teckels anxieuses et pas facile à garder. Elle a été super, j’ai reçu des photos et vidéo régulièrement ça m’a permis de passer des vacances sans inquiétude. Je la recommande sans hésitation.”
“We had a fantastic experience with Valentina! She took such great care of our pets—lots of playtime, attention, and love. It was clear they were comfortable and happy with her. She also went above and beyond around the house, keeping everything tidy and even helping out with our backyard plants. Valentina kept us updated throughout our trip with regular pictures and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind about both the pets and the house. Highly recommend her and would absolutely book again!”
About: Depuis mon enfance, j'ai grandi entouré d'animaux, créant ainsi des liens forts avec toutes sorte de petits compagnons. Ma passion m'a dirigé vers un stage en tant qu'assistante vétérinaire pour ensuite travailler dans un refuge pour chats, où je jonglais entre les miaulements, les séances de toilettage canin, et l'effervescence d'une animalerie. J'ai maintenant plus de 15 ans d'expérience avec des animaux de toutes sortes. Je reviens chez moi après avoir passé un an en France et étant en ce moment étudiante avec des cours en ligne, je suis disponible 24h/24 à la maison pour offrir une présence constante à vos animaux. De plus, je vais souvent marcher, j'aime explorer. Ce serait un plaisir d'avoir vos petits compagnons avec moi! Je vis dans un quartier très paisible, entouré de plusieurs parcs et d’un sentier à proximité. Mon jardin est également sécurisé, offrant un environnement sûr et tranquille.
About: I've always taken care of friends or family dogs. They seem to like me very much and I am always happy around them. So are they! I'm currently working part-time so I have plenty of time for dog care, walks and leisure. I'm available most of the day, morning or afternoon. I have a fenced backyard and a little girl that loves to play with dogs. She also has friends over who enjoy dogs as well.
About: I have extensive experience caring for dogs and cats through long-term house sitting as well as throughout my personal life. Over the years, friends, family, and homeowners have trusted me to care for their pets while they traveled, including extended stays in Australia, New York, and Las Vegas. In Australia, I cared for a Poodle and a cat for one month while staying in the owners’ home. In New York, I looked after a Dogo Argentino for one month. In Las Vegas, I completed two additional long-term house sits: one for a month with a Chihuahua and a large Golden Retriever, and another for four weeks caring for two medium-sized dogs—a mixed breed and a Poodle. Beyond house sitting, I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life. I grew up with breeds of all sizes, from Weimaraner's to Poodles, and have also cared for Cocker Spaniels, Schnauzers, and many mixed breeds. Friends, family, and roommates regularly trusted me to care for their dogs while they were away, often for a week or longer. I’ve also fostered rescue dogs until they found loving permanent homes. I’m comfortable adapting to each pet’s unique personality and routine, and I always prioritize their safety, comfort, and well-being while keeping owners updated throughout their stay. I work remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide pets with plenty of attention throughout the day. I can easily adapt to your pet’s routine, whether they need walks, playtime, feeding, medication reminders, or simply companionship. I’m available on weekdays, evenings, weekends, and holidays with advance notice. I live in a spacious 5½ apartment that provides a quiet, comfortable, and pet-friendly environment. One of the bedrooms is rarely used, giving pets extra space to relax if they prefer a quieter area. The apartment has built-in air conditioning to keep pets comfortable year-round, as well as a large private back terrace where they can safely enjoy fresh air and sunshine between potty breaks. I’m just a 3-minute walk from Parc La Fontaine, making it easy to provide regular walks, exercise, and plenty of outdoors. I always follow each pet’s routine and the owner’s instructions to help them feel safe, comfortable, and at home during their stay.
About: I grew up with pets, dogs cats turtles chicks rabbit Guinée pigs ect….i Raised a few puppies and i don’t believe they should be caged so it’s a condition for me they need to learn to behave like a child No cages. I’m newly retired and I have a Little Dashun 4 years old who follows me everywhere I go. We are very socialised and love to play. I’m very protective of my animal compagnon I care for their safety and well being . Like to give them freedom as long as it is safe. Alimentation is the key and excercise off course is crucial for their health.
“Viktoria was great! Our dog has separation anxiety, and being away from me is hard for him. Viktoria was patient and very understanding. Overall, really trustworthy experience, especially as it was our first time doing an in-home stay. Thanks again!”
“Karolina did a FANTASTIC job looking after our puppy Maple for the week. She’s excellent and provided updates, photos and we love having her puppy-sit Maple 🍁 thank you! ☺️”
About: I've worked with many puppies and dogs including my own. I love working with puppies and helping them learn new tricks, as well as older fur babies that like a slower pace. I currently work from home with a flexible schedule which means your pets can get lots of undivided attention, playtime and walks, and will never be unattended. I recently moved from Toronto to the Montreal region. I'm happy and excited to bring my services to a new community of pet lovers! I only offer house sitting and dog walking at the moment since I no longer have my own space, however I’m certain your pets will greatly appreciate being in an environment they are comfortable in and familiar with while you take a break! Looking forward to meeting you and your fur baby! 🤗 I promise you will get all the best pictures to send to friends and family!
“Lorenço is the sitter you're looking for! He's been caring for my energetic 4-month-old terrier several days a week and has consistently been reliable, patient and understanding (especially during the ongoing puppy biting phase!) He adapts to Watson's needs and treats him like his own. I always know Watson is in great hands while I'm at work. I trust Lorenço completely and highly recommend him. 15/10!”
About: When I was in Greece this past summer as a Destination Makeup Artist, I helped raise 5 Dogo Argentinos since birth until they were given away. I helped feed the puppies Barf, and clean them and eventually walked them to train them how to follow basic commands like sit, stay, give me your paw, lay down, jump etc… I work part-time as a makeup artist so I can easily babysit or walk your dog in the evenings and weekends. Available from 6pm from Monday to Thursday and available all day Friday. I have a yard where I would let the dog run in the backyard but the dog has to be well trained in order not to pee or runaway.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Candiac is $50
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Candiac
It was our first experience with dog sitting, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better person than Ekaterina. She is truly an angel! 🤍 From the moment Mylo met her, we immediately felt comfortable and reassured. Mylo can be a little anxious, and Ekaterina knew exactly how to approach him, make him feel comfortable, and help him stay calm. She is incredibly organized, caring, and attentive. Throughout our entire vacation, she kept us updated with pictures, videos, and little updates about Mylo. Since it was our first time leaving him with someone, this made such a huge difference for us. We felt completely safe and reassured knowing that he was happy and in good hands. What surprised me the most was actually seeing a difference in Mylo when we came back from vacation. He seemed calmer and more relaxed, which really showed me how comfortable and well taken care of he had been with Ekaterina. It was an amazing experience from beginning to end, and we are so grateful to have found her. I would 100% recommend Ekaterina to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, patient, and genuinely caring to look after their dog. Thank you so much for taking such amazing care of Mylo! 🐾🤍
Ekaterina has been the best sitter I’ve ever had! She communicated before the stay with plenty of questions to make sure she was going to meet my cat’s needs the same way I would. She sent many pictures and videos throughout the stay and when I came back the house was spotless! Will definitely hire again <3
Anja is truly an animal lover. She took looked after our senior dog with care and compassion. He needs a fairly structured routine, as well as requiring supplements with his twice daily meals and drops in his eyes. This can be overwhelming to some but Anja handled it like a professional. The minute we returned home, we knew it had gone well. We found our boy in the same health and mindset that he had when we untrusted him to this wonderful person. Anja left our house clean and tidy, none of our personal belongings were disturbed or damaged. She took such good care of our boy, that he spent the evening looking out the window for her to come back. In all a wonderful experience, we will definitely be booking her again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Candiac on Rover is $69.93 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Candiac maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Garbage & recycling: Taking garbage bins to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Candiac walking routes, the location of your favourite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Candiac choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
You can find what you need to review a sitter on their profile before booking with them. Each sitters’s profile on Rover shows verified reviews, identity check, and ratings to give a glimpse of how their previous visits went. You can also use the Meet & Greet to walk through your home, identifying which areas, like your bedroom, are off-limits or not. Requesting details of your home security through the app can also be a good way to have your sitter keep you updated about your home.
If you have security cameras or doorbells, Rover asks that you disclose them to sitters before you book.
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.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a veterinary professional or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means Rover Support will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 88% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
