About: Fan fini des animaux de compagnie, j’ai la chance d’en côtoyer d’aussi loin que je me souvienne. J’ai beaucoup de plaisir avec eux et me sens privilégiée lorsqu’on a l’occasion de s’apprivoiser. Heureuse de partager mon environnement avec une belle Husky de 8 ans depuis septembre2026 vivant avec 2.8 pattes, je vous propose alors une attention et des soins hors pair pour vos compagnons. Marcher, socialiser, jeux et encore plus! Je travaille pour le service incendie de la MRC de D’Autray et j’ai un horaire de travail plutôt typique soit de 8h à 17h, et termine à midi le vendredi. Je suis disponible tôt le matin et en soirée pour les journées de semaine et suis SUPER disponible les week-ends. J’ai actuellement 2 chats, Tomtom 12 ans et Simon 5 ans. J’ai beaucoup de plaisir à faire en sorte que tout est harmonieux pour tous. Auparavant j’ai eu un Berger Allemand/Husky/Beauceron pour lequel j’ai suivi un cours de dressage (pour le maître… hahah). Par la suite, j’ai « rescue » toute sortes de quadrupèdes (chiens, chats et même une rate).
“Chantal was wonderful. My pups were well cared for and my home was spotless when I returned. Chantal took the time to set the routine with the dogs and I could tell she understood their needs and quirks and made sure they were comfortable. I would absolutely have Chantal back again!”

About: Les animaux font partie de ma vie depuis toujours! J’ai de l’expérience auprès des chiens et des chats, notamment ceux qui nécessitent des soins particuliers. Ayant moi-même pris soin, pendant plusieurs années, d’un sphynx ayant des besoins spécifiques, je suis familière avec les soins de peau, d’hygiène dentaire et l’attention supplémentaire que certaines races demandent. Douce, patiente et attentionnée, je m’adapte aux besoins et au rythme de chaque animal, qu’il ait besoin de médicaments, de soins particuliers ou simplement de beaucoup d’affection. Mon objectif : que votre compagnon se sente en sécurité, aimé et traité comme un vrai petit prince ou une vraie petite princesse! ❤️ Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember : dogs (small and bigger ones!), cats, and everything in between. I recently said goodbye to my beloved Sphynx, who had several special needs, and caring for him taught me so much about patience, attentiveness, and understanding each animal’s unique needs. I’m naturally gentle, affectionate, and attentive, and I truly believe animals deserve to feel safe, loved, and respected. I have hands-on experience caring for special-needs cats and dogs, and I’m comfortable with animals who need a little extra patience, medication, routine, or reassurance. ❤️ Because of health issues, I am currently unemployed. So, I have a lot of free time and my schedule is very flexible. I'm available weekdays and weekends! I would prefer to care for your pet in your own house, because I think it's the best way to reduce stress to the maximum for your animals.
“Manon a pris grand soin de Boogie, elle lui a appris des nouveaux tours, a tenté d'améliorer sa réactivité et elle a joué avec lui. Manon a aussi administré les médicaments et a fait vivre des belles nouvelles expériences à Boogie. Dès qu'on la rencontre, on voit qu'elle a le tour avec les chiens et qu'elle les adore ! Nous avons reçu des nouvelles et des photos pendant notre voyage ce qui a été très apprécié. J'ai été en confiance avec Manon, elle est d'une spontanéité accueillante et déborde d'énergie. Et elle est aussi très respectueuse de la maison, à notre retour c'était impeccable! Merci Manon!”
About: Hi! I’m a reliable and caring pet sitter who truly loves animals and treats every pet like family. I mainly speak English, but I can also understand French, so I’m comfortable communicating with bilingual pet parents but I may struggle to speak in French as I am still learning. Service details & availability: • Drop-in visits: Available within 15 km of my home for multiple visits in one day, or up to 30 km for one visit per day. • Dog walking: Offered within 15 km of my home to ensure punctual and stress-free walks. • House sitting: Bookings over 30 km from my home may require an additional travel fee, depending on distance and length of stay. • In-home boarding: I only accept one pet family at a time so your pet gets my full attention. I have a large, secure backyard for supervised outdoor time. Please note that I currently have one cat and one dog in my home who are used to being around other animals. • Pickup & drop-off: Pickup and drop-off services are available for an additional fee, depending on distance. I prioritize safety, routine, and comfort, and I’m happy to follow any specific care instructions to make sure your pet feels at ease while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! 🐾 I am always home and available. We have a large land so they would be able to get their daily exercise. All my pets are on a set routine so they will follow a similar routine. My yard is not fenced off but we have cameras all over the land. They will be put on a leash if they have a tendency to run off. If they need to be leashed, we have the tools to have them on a 10 yard leash so they can still roam freely but will not be able to leave the land.
About: Have extensive experience with raising cats and dogs, am comfortable in other peoples homes and keep it neat and tidy. I have raised a Boxer, helped train a golden doodle, cared for elderly greyhounds with hip problems, fostered a Mini Pincer with PTSD with aggression to other dogs. Among many others! I know how to speak to them in a serious tone, to correct them, and then immediately give them a way to repair. (Example, no pulling on the leash, NO! Sit down, give paw, Good dog! ) -This would obviously be tailored to each pet according to their needs and training level. I care for more than just their needs, I take an interest in their interests, and emotional wellbeing. I work from a distance, and make my own schedule therefore I am very flexible. I also have a place with a fenced in backyard for having animals visit my home as well. Consistency is everything with dogs! I am loving and firm. I get to know what is acceptable behavior of the animal according to their parents, and reinforce this training while they are away. If the dog needs cuddles, quiet and down time, then lets get some comfy blankets and cuddle up with a book! If they need to walk / run a lot we can go on urban hikes or to the dog park. If an animal is visiting my home I make sure its completely baby proofed, and owners re more than welcome to inspect my space in advance or on arrival! If they prefer to have a space to hide to feel safe I can create that under my bed or in a closet, with pleasure.
“We honestly cannot say enough good things about Cristine. The day before we left, our dog unexpectedly had to go to the vet, which meant we were leaving him with multiple medications and a lot of anxiety on our end… we were so nervous about traveling under those circumstances, but Cristine immediately put us at ease. She went above and beyond in every possible way… following medication instructions perfectly, keeping us updated, and caring for him with so much attention, patience, and genuine kindness. It was clear she truly cared about his comfort and well-being!!! We came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog and a spotless home… and most importantly, complete peace of mind while we were away. Trusting someone with your dog is one thing… trusting someone when your dog isn’t 100% is another… and Cristine exceeded every expectation. If we could give 6 stars, we absolutely would. We feel incredibly lucky to have found her and would not hesitate for a second to book with her again… highly, highly recommend!!!!!!”

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Crabtree 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Crabtree 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 Crabtree 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, a background 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.
Payment is handled securely through Rover. For a one-time booking, your payment method is charged 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.
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 tips for your first Meet & Greet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 88% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
