“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!”
“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!”
“Amira was absolutely fantastic. Our moody chihuahua took to her right away and she did great giving our senior boxer all the meds he needed with a last minute injury. She kept him happy even when his activity was low. Pups loved her and can’t recommend her enough. Lovers of pictures and updates throughout our trip.”
“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.”
“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.”
“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: J'ai eu l'occasion, dès mon plus jeune âge, de m'occuper de mes propres chiens et mon chat & ainsi que de ceux d'amis et de voisins, en assurant les promenades, les repas, les jeux et les soins quotidiens. Je suis une personne fiable, attentive et patiente, qui accorde une énorme importance au bien-être, au confort et à la sécurité des animaux dont je m'occupe. Malgré mes études et mon emploi à temps partiel, j'organise mon emploi du temps avec efficacité. Je suis disponible pour des marches et des visites selon les besoins des propriétaires, tout en veillant à offrir des soins de qualité et une attention personnalisée à chaque animal🐾. Lors de visites, je m'assurerais, avec beaucoup d’attention, de patience et de bienveillance, de respecter leur routine habituelle (repas, promenades, jeux, moments de repos ou autre) afin qu’ils se sentent biens et confortable.
“Avec Sofia, nous partons en toute confiance. Notre chiot reçoit beaucoup de soins, d’attention et d’affection. Nous savions que Molly était entre d’excellentes mains pendant notre absence. Sofia nous envoie régulièrement des nouvelles et des photos, ce qui nous permet d’avoir l’esprit tranquille et de profiter pleinement de nos vacances, sans nous inquiéter. Merci infiniment, Sofia, pour tous les bons soins apportés à Molly!”
“Anja (and her sweet boy Paco) have quickly become my dog, Gizmo’s favorite companions :) Anja is courteous, kind, knowledgeable and a huge animal lover making her, truly, the perfect pet sitter :)”
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!
About: Je m’occupe de mes deux bassets à la maison, j’ai eu un élevage pendant deux ans où la femelle basset originaire de la Bretagne m’a fait une très belle portée dont les chiots étaient tous en santé. J’ai gardé le dernier chiot son nom est Rocky il est très gentil. Avec mes deux bassets, nous nous promenons deux fois par jour petite balade du matin et balade de l’après-midi on sort souvent pour des sorties d’une heure, dont le parc à chien où nous aimons vraiment beaucoup socialiser, et se défouler, nous aimons les autres amis, car nous sommes faits pour vivre en meute. Si je me déplace, j’effectue toujours une surveillance d’hygiène, nettoyage des pipis s’il y a lieu et remise en état de la pièce donner la nourriture, puis s’assurer qu’ils ont toujours de l’eau, jouer et aller dehors et faire les soins routine, lavage des oreilles, lavage des dents, lavage du poil, brosser le poil et s’assurer qu ils sont en pleine santé. Cela fait partie de ma routine avec mes deux chiens.
“It was our first time leaving our puppy, and we had a phenomenal experience with Esther. She sent tons of pictures and video updates throughout the evening, and was amazing at keeping our minds at ease. Would highly recommend Esther for all your puppy needs!”
About: I’ve had a soft spot for animals since I was young and loved helping care for my friends’s pets, gaining great experience with different kinds of animals. I also grew up with a Boxer/Lab mix, so I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. For the past two years, I’ve worked as a dog groomer assistant, where I’ve learned how to keep pets safe, comfortable, and gently handle unique dog characters. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and truly at home while you’re away — belly rubs and tail wags included! 🐶🐾 I work full-time, so I’m most available on weekends and before or after work hours. However, I’m happy to be flexible and make time for your pets whenever needed. I’m really attentive and love giving your pet lots of love and care. I’ll make sure they get plenty of potty breaks and time to stretch their legs. Whether your pet is at my place or yours, I keep things safe, clean, and cozy for them.
“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!!”
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
“Lisette a été une gardienne exceptionnelle. Elle a pris soin de Jonesy avec beaucoup de douceur et générosité. Elle me donnait des nouvelles et photos. La maison était impeccable lorsque nous sommes rentrés. Je vais faire à nouveau appel à ses services avec une grande joie et confiance.”
“Emily et Nicholas ont été des gardiens absolument remarquables. Ils se sont occupés de mes animaux avec beaucoup d’attention, y compris de mon jeune chien de grande taille qui demande des sorties régulières et une bonne dose d’énergie. Tout s’est déroulé à merveille : ils ont su gérer son rythme, ses besoins et lui offrir une présence rassurante. En plus de cela, ma maison était impeccable à mon retour. Ils ont fait preuve de sérieux, de respect et d’un grand sens des responsabilités. Je me suis sentie en totale confiance du début à la fin. Je les recommande sans hésitation à quiconque cherche des gardiens fiables, attentionnés et professionnels.”

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 August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 1,110 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Candiac. Enter your postal code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
