“Shania is fantastic. She always takes great care of my two fur kids! We have now hired her twice to come to our home and houses it! We are going away another 3 times this year and she is my go to!”
“Barbara did an amazing job watching our dog while we were away. We have a senior dog that does not take well with strangers, however she was friendly with Barbara right from the start, and that says alot. I will not hesitate to use Barbara's services again in the future, and recommend her for any of your pet needs. Thanks again Barbara!”
“Ekaterina was an absolutely wonderful house sitter! She was kind, communicative, and clearly cared about taking good care of my fur baby. I wouldn’t ever hesitate to book her again. Thank you so much for taking away all stress about caring for my little girl while I was travelling!”
“Chantal was amazing with my dog. She had a hard time with new people but Chantal was calm and great and my dog warmed up very nicely. The house was left clean which was a huge relief 😅”
About: Hi, I'm Leanne and I would love to take care of your pet(s) while you're away! I'm an animal lover who understands that pets are no less than family. Whether they need a walk, playtime or just some love and affection, I'll make sure to treat them as if they were my own! I'm patient, reliable and with many years of experience caring for dogs, cats and reptiles, you can be assured that my priority is always making your pet feel safe, happy and comfortable while you're away. I had a wonderful cat, Archie, who taught me how to properly and carefully administer medication and become very attuned to animals needs through body language and non-verbal communication. I also had a frog, Fern, who lived well beyond her years! I'll keep you updated with messages and photos, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and safe. I look forward to meeting you and your pet(s)!

“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!”
“Lisette is a very vibrant and passionate sitter, and it really shows that she cares about what she does. Missy can be anxious when I leave and Lisette was gentle, attentive and affectionate with her, clearly took the time to make Missy feel comfortable and secure. I returned home to a calm and relaxed cat and a happy dog. I really appreciated the kindness she showed my pets and would gladly book with her again.”
About: I’ve taken care of personal dogs, friends dogs and cats for years fully appreciate their company and treat them with respect. My family and I love nature and enjoy sharing moments with animals I’am currently working from home part time so I have lots of time free to share with your pet, I enjoy walks as are part of my routine. I have a fence yard so they can enjoy fresh air more often, will allow your pet to freely move around the house while inside and will have walks according to their needs
About: Hello Everyone: My name is Meagan and I have owned animals for a majority of my life. I have owned several different breeds of dogs and have had cats all of my life. I have personally trained all of my dogs and know what it takes to ensure your fur baby is happy and healthy. I am also a registered early childhood educator; families trust me with their children, so you can trust me with your furry friends. I currently have two dogs and one cat. Jewels is my 10 year old spaniel mix; Pëpé is my 11 year old chihuahua, and Verne is my 3 year old cat. Since I have a child, two dogs and cat, meet and greets are mandatory. The reason I want to take up walking/care taking dogs and cats is to be more active, and give some freedom and relaxation to other dog owners who need it. I have a fenced yard, and animals are free to roam the upper level of my house. The cat has the basement to himself . Your dog's must be leash trained and don't pull. I am unable to watch dogs that have seperation anxiety. I am at home full time right now. The longest I am away from the house is 2.5 hours. My goal is to open a huge pet sitting location so that I can offer more services to those in need. My service prices depend on your needs. Base prices are yard outings only. If your dog needs long walks, my prices will go up to include 30 minutes or 60 minute walks. I let them have access to water at all times and will play with them. There is a baby here, so the dogs can stay around her if they are good with babies.
About: I grew up with pets, dogs cats turtles chicks rabbit Guinée pigs ect….i Raised a few puppies and i don’t beleive 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 projective of my animal compagnon I care for their safety and well being . Alimentation is the key and excercise off course is so important
About: I have owned and fostered dogs. I currently own a one year old Labernese (Lab and Bernese Mountain Dog mix) who has the look of a lab but the gentle and chill nature of a Bernese. She is anxious with humans but loves other dogs and plays well with little and big dogs alike. I also own a puppy named Sandy. She is 5 months now (July 2026) and is used to all kinds of dogs. Sandy is a sweetheart and loves to play. She has been socialized with dogs and humans since we got her so she gets along with everyone. I love to pack walk and I provide a lot of structure for dog guests to feel comfortable and secure. I work from home and my husband is a stay at home dad. With our kids in school all week we have tons of time to snuggle and play with doggies throughout the day. I have a huge fenced in yard. I live in a large bungalow with lots of room for dogs to hangout and play. We also have a well divided home that allows us to section areas for dogs that are more shy or prefer to be alone then to be around other pups. I work from home as a Strategy Manager with a very flexible schedule. Doggies are welcome in my office and I have set up a spot right by my desk. When we need a break I live in a lovely suburban area close to the Lakeshore and great walking paths. I ask all my clients for their current pet routines in order to stick to that as closely as possible. I believe in trust and consistency and of course....so much love!
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have watched after family and friends pets. It brings me such joy and I would love to care for yours as well I have flexible hours and my adult daughter lives with me. She helps me with my dog and cat and so there is always someone here to take care of your furry friends I have a single-family home on the West Island. We are corner house with lots of green space. I do not have fully fancy yard, but live next to a park and love to go for a long walks
“We cannot say enough good things about Amanda and Kerri. The most kind and caring dog sitters. Our dog absolutely adored them. They were communicative and took such amazing care of our girl. Would 100% recommend to anyone. We will definitely be booking again! Thank you Amanda and Kerri!!”
About: I am a 24 year old college student who doesn't have time for the average 9-5 job. I am a huge animal lover that has two dogs (and one cat, can't forget Lucas!) of her own and will provide the best, most attentive service to meet all your dogs/cats needs and yours! My main concern is making sure that they are completely drained (and content) from all the activities and love I provided for them throughout the day. I have experience in this line of work which sets me apart from other sitters/walkers as I understand that all animals have their own personality and likes/dislikes which makes each and every one of them more loveable and unique. I hope to hear from you all soon and wish you all a great day!
About: J’ai toujours eu un grand amour pour les animaux, particulièrement les chiens. J’ai l’habitude de m’occuper d’eux au quotidien : promenades, jeux, alimentation et m’assurer qu’ils se sentent en sécurité et bien entourés. Je suis une personne responsable, attentive et patiente, et je comprends l’importance de respecter les habitudes et les besoins de chaque animal. Avec moi, votre chien recevra toute l’attention, l’affection et les soins nécessaires pendant votre absence. Je suis disponible pour m’occuper de vos animaux tous les jours de la semaine, avec des plages horaires flexibles selon vos besoins. Je peux faire des promenades matin, midi ou soir, ainsi que des visites à domicile pour nourrir, jouer et veiller au bien-être de vos compagnons. Pour toute demande particulière ou horaire personnalisé, n’hésitez pas à me contacter, je m’adapte volontiers pour le confort de votre animal. Chez nous, les animaux sont notre priorité. Nous avons une cour arrière sécurisée où ils peuvent jouer librement, et mes grandes filles adorent les animaux et participent aux soins et aux jeux. Chaque compagnon reçoit toute notre attention, notre affection et un environnement sûr et joyeux où il se sentira comme à la maison.
“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!”
“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.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Châteauguay on Rover is $48.84 per night (as of July 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 Châteauguay 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 Châteauguay 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 Châteauguay 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:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 87% 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.
