Excellent service!! I was worried about leaving my cats initially but after the first day of seeing how caring she was with them, I would gladly leave both my cats in her care again! You can tell she has a genuine love for animals by the way she acts with them and kept me posted on their situation.

Ékaterina est formidable ! Mon chien s’est tout de suite senti à l’aise avec elle. Elle ne s’occupe pas seulement très bien des chiens, mais en plus, en tant que spécialiste du comportement canin, elle m’a donné d’excellents conseils d’éducation. On sent qu’elle aime vraiment les animaux et qu’elle les comprend. Un grand merci !

Anja was amazing with our two cats! They are not used to us leaving and Anja really took her time to get them to feel comfortable around her. She went above and beyond, and we couldn’t have been happier!

About: I have been surrounded by animals my entire life, especially dogs of all breeds and sizes. I grew up with dogs, and my family was also involved in dog breeding, which gave me a deep understanding of their care and behavior from an early age. I have volunteered with the SPCA and have extensive hands-on experience caring for both adult dogs and puppies. I truly love animals and treat each one as if they were my own. I would be happy to provide loving and responsible care for your furry family member! I work full-time but have a flexible schedule and can adjust to meet your needs. Whether it’s for walks, drop-ins, or overnight care, feel free to reach out—I’d be happy to work something out with you! You can relax knowing your pup is in safe, loving hands. With years of experience caring for dogs and puppies, I understand how to create a safe, calm, and happy environment. Your furry friend will be treated like family!

Pamela is such a sweetheart. She's done doggy daycare for me in the past, but this time she stopped by to check in on my cat while I was out of town with the dog. She took photos to let me know my request for litter cleaning was complete and that my cat was doing well. She also left a very nice note for me for when I got home. Will definitely be booking her again for both my dog and cat!

About: I've been pet sitting for friends for multiple years now, they know how much I love and care for our little furry friends. I've also done some pet sitting during my travels in Australia. In the past few years, I have fostered 14 cats of different ages, from energetic kittens to slower-paced seniors. I am experienced in administering medication if needed. I have hybrid work that is quite flexible. I'm available for pet care during weekends, the days I work remotely and evenings. Just let me know what your needs are and we can figure something out! Your pet's safety is always my #1 concern. I want to make sure that this is a comfortable experience, both for you and me, but also for your little furry friend. I'm extremely tidy and clean, so you'll always return to a clean home. I make sure to stay communicative and will send daily pictures as often as you want!

I am so happy I trusted my instincts with Rojina and chose her to take care or our cat Hedwyg, who is a rescue. He is normally very shy and hides when someone unknown comes to the house. But with Rojina, he came out on day one! She clearly has a gift for taking care of animals and really respect them. I would recommend her in a heartbeat. She updated us with pictures and comments and adhere to all our specific needs. She is a true professional and profoundly cares. Thank you for everything Rojina?

Heather did a great job looking after my cats! She was very conscientious and checked in when she noticed my fridge had accidentally been left open, and made sure not to feed Minnow any food that might have been spoiled. I felt really comfortable knowing Minnow was in her care.😊 Heather was also super friendly and easy to communicate with. I’d happily hire her again!

About: We've had 25 years of fun with our own dogs. I grew up around them as a kid, and I can't think of a time I have not been around them. We've raised them from puppies, and we've had some that have been rescued, but one thing is for sure is that we love them no matter where they're coming from. We would love to watch your pup, and have them hang out with our boy Hobbes. We have multiple parks around us, plenty of places to explore, and a great home to house them in. Let us know how we can be of service to you, and take care of your furry friend. We both work from home (Jonathan & Ashleigh) and our daughter (Kodee), have tons of flexibility, which gives us all plenty of opportunities to get out into the fresh air and explore. \\jonathan, ashleigh, et kodee Nous avons eu 25 ans de plaisir avec nos propres chiens. J'ai grandi avec eux quand j'étais enfant, et je ne peux pas penser à une époque où je n'ai pas été avec eux. Nous les avons élevés à partir de chiots, et certains d'entre eux ont été sauvés, mais une chose est sûre, c'est que nous les aimons peu importe d'où ils viennent. Nous serions ravis de regarder votre chiot et de le faire passer du temps avec notre pitou Hobbes. Nous avons plusieurs parcs autour de nous, de nombreux endroits à explorer et une belle maison pour les héberger. Faites-nous savoir comment nous pouvons vous être utiles et prendre soin de votre compagnon à quatre pattes. Nous travaillons tous les deux (Jonathan et Ashleigh) à domicile puis notre fille aussi (Kodee), avons une grande flexibilité, ce qui nous donne de nombreuses opportunités de sortir à l'air frais et d'explorer. Pet care fits naturally into our daily rhythm. Since we both work from home, we're able to give plenty of attention throughout the day...whether it’s a morning walk by the river, playtime in the afternoon, or a quiet cuddle in the evening. Our three teenagers are also involved and love spending time with animals, so there’s always someone ready for a walk, a game of fetch, or just to hang out and offer some affection. Caring for pets isn’t something we have to “make time” for it’s something we genuinely enjoy and have built into how our family lives day to day. Prendre soin des animaux fait naturellement partie de notre quotidien. Comme nous travaillons tous les deux de la maison, nous avons la chance d’être présents et disponibles tout au long de la journée. Que ce soit pour une marche matinale au bord du fleuve, un moment de jeu en après-midi, ou une séance de câlins tranquille en soirée, il y a toujours un moment pour leur accorder de l’attention. Nos trois ados participent aussi avec joie aux soins. Ils adorent passer du temps avec les animaux, donc il y a toujours quelqu’un prêt pour une balade, une partie de lancer de balle, ou juste pour donner un peu d’affection. Ce n’est pas quelque chose qu’on doit "planifier", c’est une partie naturelle et précieuse de notre mode de vie familial. Chez nous, on prend soin des chiens comme s’ils faisaient partie de la famille, parce que pendant qu’ils sont ici, c’est exactement ce qu’ils sont. À la maison, cela veut dire beaucoup d’amour, d’attention, et un environnement calme où votre chien peut se sentir en sécurité et pleinement accueilli. Les promenades, les jeux et les câlins font partie de notre routine. On fait aussi attention aux besoins particuliers de chaque animal, que ce soit pour des médicaments, un horaire de repas spécifique ou tout simplement un peu plus de douceur et de patience. Avec Hobbes, qui pesait 115 livres, c’était important pour nous qu’il soit bien éduqué, confiant et à l’aise dans différents environnements. Il devait pouvoir interagir doucement avec un tout-petit autant que marcher calmement à mes côtés. Cela fait longtemps que nous vivons aux côtés de ces compagnons à quatre pattes. Avec les années, on a appris à comprendre leur langage, à les observer, à bâtir une relation basée sur la confiance. Savoir comment les entraîner, comment bien communiquer avec eux, ça a changé et enrichi notre manière de vivre avec nos chiens. On croit beaucoup au renforcement positif, à la structure et à la douceur. Chaque chien est unique, et on prend le temps de s’adapter à ses besoins, pour qu’il se sente aimé, respecté et à sa place avec nous. Quand on prend soin d’un animal dans sa propre maison, on fait tout pour garder ses repères. On suit vos consignes avec attention, pour que votre chien se sente aussi bien que possible, dans un environnement familier, avec une présence calme et bienveillante. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> We care for pets like they’re part of the family, because while they’re with us, they are. In our home, that means lots of love, attention, and a calm environment where your dog can feel safe and included. Walks, playtime, and snuggles are all part of the routine. We’re mindful of each pet’s specific needs, whether it's medication, a certain feeding schedule, or just extra patience and space. With Hobbes, who was 115 pounds, it was important to make sure he could be out in the world and feel confident, calm, and well-behaved. He needed to be able to love on a toddler just as gently as he walked beside someone my size. We've been partnering with these four-legged companions for a long time. Over the years, we’ve learned how to read their behavior and respond in ways that build trust. Understanding how to train and communicate with them has helped us build deeper, healthier relationships with our pups. We believe in positive reinforcement, structure, and kindness. Every dog is different, and we take time to learn what works best for each one so they feel secure, loved, and at home with us. If we're caring for your pet in their own home, we work to keep their routine as familiar as possible. We follow your instructions closely and make sure your pup feels safe, respected, and cared for, wherever we are.

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.

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.

About: I have taken care of dogs, bunnies, cats, for 10+ years. My strength has been in caring for animals with anxiety, nervousness, or shyness, and bringing them comfort and a positive environment. I am very good at reinforcing training for the young ones to provide them consistency and stability in their routine. I am gifted in reading animals and having a lot of patience, and a great passion for them. This allows me to connect with them really effectively and be able to create a safe and loving experience for your fur babies! Pet care fits really naturally into my routine. I work full‑time as an operations manager from home, which gives me a lot of flexibility during the day for walks, check‑ins, playtime, and just being present. I’m not rushing in and out between commitments—your pet gets real attention worked into my day, not squeezed in as an afterthought. I used to dog sit in my own home and absolutely loved it, but after moving, my landlord no longer allows pets. Continuing to care for animals in clients’ homes is my way of keeping that connection I genuinely miss. Spending time with pets is something I want to do, not just something I’m fitting in. Because my schedule is flexible, I can adapt to your pet’s needs—whether that’s midday walks, medication timing, extra companionship during the workday, or sticking closely to an established routine. It ends up feeling very natural and consistent for them, which I know makes a big difference. For me, pet care is a grounding, enjoyable part of my week—and for your pet, it means calm, reliable care from someone who truly enjoys being there! When I care for pets in your home, I treat it like it’s their space and their routine, not just a place I’m visiting. I stick closely to your instructions—feeding schedules, walk times, meds, house rules—so everything feels as normal as possible for them. I make sure they get plenty of attention, play, and comfort, whether that means active time or just being a calm, reassuring presence nearby. I’m respectful of your home, keep things clean and tidy, and always prioritize safety (doors secure, leashes on, food stored properly). I also love sending updates and photos so you can see how your pet is doing and feel totally at ease while you’re away. My goal is simple: your pet feels relaxed and well cared for, and you come home to a happy animal and a home just the way you left it.

About: I grew up with 30+ bunnies in my backyard, and had 3 cats. My mom still has 2 rescued dogs and 4 rescued cats and 1 bird that i babysit sometimes while working from home. I currently live with my sister that has a small pugchi mix so i’m used to being the babysitter for her as well when she goes to work or on trips. I took care of 2 ex-boyfriend’s dogs that were a german shepherd and a golden retriever. I work from home 100% of the time (so I can stay for as long as needed and give your home and furry friends all the love and attention they deserve!) All i need is for you to have reliable Wi-Fi i can connect to in order to work. Im able to give your pet attention throughout the whole day and go for potty breaks when needed. Walks would be before work, during lunchbreak and after work. I speak FR and EN. I can give you updates and pictures as much as you need to feel like your baby is safe. I’m a very calm person and would be working on my computer wether it’s a weekday or weekend so your home is in good hands. I can also do a house clean for a fee if you’re interested.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Candiac

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Candiac on Rover is $28.86 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

There are 1,798 sitters on Rover for Pet Sitting in Candiac. About 83% of Candiac 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.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or travelling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer poop breaks during a Candiac stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover based on what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

You can coordinate how much supervision you want directly with your sitter. While every sitter’s schedule varies, here are some examples of supervision by pet care service:

  • Boarding or doggy day care: Many sitters can provide frequent companionship because they design their day specifically around the pets in their care or work from home.
  • House sitting: Your sitter generally stays in your home for the requested duration, which may include overnight care. They may step out briefly to visit other pet clients, but your home remains their primary base.
  • Drop-in visits or dog walking: These can be scheduled in 30- or 60-minute windows (and can be shorter or longer at your request) to help your pet receive dedicated attention and care during those specific times.

Interested in constant or 24/7 care? This service often incurs an additional fee but many sitters are happy to discuss this option with you.

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!

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 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.

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 87% 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.
