“Absolutely thrilled with the care Aijun (and Clara) provided for Haku and Kimi while we were away! This was our second time using them, and once again, they went above and beyond. They sent regular updates and adorable videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Both cats looked relaxed and content, a clear sign they were well cared for and loved. On top of that, our plants were perfectly watered, and we returned to a spotless home. Truly fantastic service all around. We’re so grateful and will absolutely be using them again. Highly recommend!”

About: My own dog was adopted at 1 year old and came with a lot of anxiety — he was nervous, easily startled, and afraid of children. With long-term training, consistency, and a lot of love, he has transformed into a calm, happy, confident boy. Because of this journey, I understand anxious dogs deeply: their triggers, their body language, their need for slow introductions, and how important gentle structure is for them to feel safe. Living with him (and two cats!) has taught me patience and how to keep a peaceful, multi-pet household where every animal has their own space and comfort. I’m very comfortable helping dogs who are shy, sensitive, or still learning how to trust. What sets me apart is my calm, detail-focused approach: • I follow your dog’s routine exactly • I know how to support anxious or rescue pups • I use positive, gentle reinforcement • I keep the environment clean, safe, and supervised • I adjust walks and playtime based on energy and comfort level • I’m comfortable with medication or special needs Your dog will get quiet spaces, predictable routines, soft encouragement, and plenty of affection (only if they want it!). And you’ll receive daily updates and photos so you always know your pup is happy and doing well. 🐾💛 My goal is simple: to give every dog the same patience and love that helped my own pup blossom. Pet care is already part of my daily life. I have two cats and a dog, so my routine includes morning/evening walks, feeding times, play sessions, and lots of supervision throughout the day. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which lets me give frequent potty breaks, calm company, and consistent care. Your pet simply joins my clean, quiet, and structured daily routine. 💛🐾 I keep a calm, clean, and supervised home where pets have their own safe spaces and slow, gentle introductions. I have a large backyard with a natural tree hedge that creates a quiet, private, and secure play area. I follow each pet’s routine exactly and monitor all interactions for comfort. If I’m in your home, I maintain the same structure and care with frequent updates. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. 💛🐾

About: J’ai toujours eu des animaux, je les adore ! J’ai un chien actif (berger australien) alors je marche tous les jours, je cours, je vais au parc à chiens quand c’est nécessaire ! Les chiens font partie de ma vie de tous les jours et j'adore passer du temps avec eux ! Comme je travaille à temps plein dans une école, les chiens que j'accueille doivent être capables de rester avec mes animaux pendant la journée. En retour, ils profitent de beaucoup d'attention le soir et les fins de semaine. J'aime être active : promenades, randonnées, course à pied et sorties au parc canin font partie de notre routine selon les besoins et le niveau d'énergie de chaque chien. Les fins de semaine, mon propre chien m'accompagne souvent dans mes activités, et j'aime offrir la même expérience aux chiens que je garde. Je traite chaque chien comme un membre de la famille et je fais tout pour qu'il se sente confortable, en confiance et bien entouré pendant son séjour. J'habite une maison de ville sur deux étages, ce qui offre suffisamment d'espace pour que chaque animal puisse trouver un endroit confortable pour se reposer et se sentir à l'aise. J'ai également une petite cour clôturée où les chiens peuvent profiter de l'extérieur en toute sécurité. Mon chat y a aussi accès, et l'aménagement est sécuritaire pour lui également. Je veille à ce que les animaux aient un environnement calme, propre et accueillant, où ils peuvent recevoir beaucoup d'attention tout en respectant leur rythme et leurs besoins. ☺️

About: I am a huge animal lover and a Dog Whisperer as some of my friends call me. I have been a dog owner as long as I remember. I already have a furry kid Bella, who is very friendly with other dogs and loves play dates with her friends. I am used to dog walking and pet sitting for my family,friends and neighbors. When we moved from US, we had to face many issues in regards to Bellas transport and stay and I know the feeling when you are unable to give your fur kid the best of best while moving or when you are on a much needed vacation. I will always keep you updated with the photos of your pet having fun. I will be right here when you need someone to take care of your pet just as part of a family! Doggy Day Care - Saturday, Sunday and Holidays Doggy Boarding - Friday Evening after 5.30 to Sunday Night 8.00 Dog Walking - Saturday and Sunday Someone would always be with your pup during his/her stay at our place. Depending on the energy of the pup and weather, we will head out for multiple walks in the park or stay inside playing. We have a fenced backyard which would be accessible for play time. In case its snowing or raining hard, we prefer to stay inside and have fun playing with toys, balls and what not? 😊

“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?”

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.

About: Ayant des animaux depuis toute jeune, je comprends très bien la complexité de les faire garder ou bien d'avoir quelqu'un pour s'occuper d'eux (surtout avec la vie, le travail, les enfants etc !). Je considère avoir de très bonnes bases en comportement canin, obéissance, soins de base pour chats, chiens, oiseaux, poissons. J'ai également eu des animaux avec certaines complexités médicales alors sachez que je suis à l'aise avec vos poilus avec besoins particuliers. Mon entourage sait à quel point j'aime mes animaux et ceux de mes proches. J'ai aidé plusieurs personnes près de moi avec leurs animaux et j'ai donc décidé d'offrir ce service via Rover puisque moi-même j'ai eu besoin de ce service et j'ai adoré le fonctionnement. J'ai la chance d'avoir un emploi en mode hybride donc flexibilité, stabilité et présence (surtout pour nos amis anxieux!) c'est ce que j'offre pour la garde. Pour les visites ponctuelles, je peux organiser mon horaire afin de venir faire des visites à votre domicile selon la distance. Ici nous avons une grande cours clôturée donc les chiens peuvent également courir et s'amuser en liberté. Nous avons une superbe piste cyclable à proximité ainsi que des parcs à chiens si c'est ce dont votre animal a besoin. Pour vos chats, le chien et les chats ici sont à l'aise avec des amis et dans le cas où votre animal est plutôt réservé il y a définitivement moyen de lui donner son espace. Pour les visites ponctuelles ou les garde à votre domicile, vos règles sont les miennes ! Votre chien a besoin de se faire chanter une chanson en faisant 2 tours sur moi-même pour qu'il mange ? Je suis partante. Votre chat a besoin de son mantra quotidien pour être heureux? Je suis partante. Aucun paramètre autour du bien-être d'un animal n'est farfelu pour moi 🐕 N'hésitez pas à m'écrire pour avoir plus d'infos. Il me fera plaisir de discuter avec vous!

About: My pet care experience comes primarily from caring for my own dog, who I was the primary caregiver and walker for throughout her 15 years. While living in Australia, our neighbour also entrusted us with caring for his 4-year-old Golden Retriever while he was at work. This included feeding her, taking her for walks, and keeping her at our home during the day. I’ve also regularly helped friends and family care for their pets while they were away, including feeding them, letting them outside, and making sure they were comfortable and well cared for. I’m responsible, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I'm currently unemployed as I am new to the area and moved here for my partners work. I am available at any time of day, any day of the week. I am very active and love to be outside rain or shine, so taking pets out on walks, to the park, or to hang out in the yard is aligned with my priorities. I am adaptable to the needs of your pet. I am active and able bodied so I would not struggle assisting a pet that is not as mobile. On the flip side, I love to be outside and active so I am happy to take long walks, spend time outside with your pet, and keep them stimulated with play such as fetch.

About: I have had cats in my life since I was 10. I genuinely enjoy and taking care of cats. I love to give the best possible care that they deserve! I have experience in giving medication, caring for senior cats, and following any special routines. I work seasonally in the summer, so this fall and winter I am home most days to visit and hang out with your special kitty. I love meeting new cats and I quickly learn about each cat's needs and wants. I understand some cats are more shy and reserved. I also have a spacious one bedroom apartment which can easily be turned into seperate spaces for cats before they are introduced.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Carignan

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Carignan is $28 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $44 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

There are 1,795 sitters on Rover for Pet Sitting in Carignan. About 84% of Carignan 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 to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

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 Carignan 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 .

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 , 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 .

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.

Payment is handled securely through Rover. For a one-time booking, at the time of checkout when you submit your booking request. This charge will include fees payable to Rover. Your booking is confirmed once the sitter accepts it.

If the request is not accepted, the pending charge is released in 1-7 days. How long it takes to disappear from your account depends on your payment provider.

For eligible recurring weekly services, you are charged for the first week when you book and then each Monday for the upcoming week. You’ll see the full price before you confirm. Always pay through Rover so your booking remains eligible for the Rover Guarantee and support.

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

  • 83% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 86% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 93% 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.
