About: I’ve been taking care of cats, both my own and for friends, since I was 13. I grew up owning a total of three cats, and I’m currently the proud owner of a female cat named Zelda. I’m friendly, gentle and warm with all felines. I know how to read them, respect their boundaries, and be a safely predictable presence for them. I grew up in a town where lots of strays lived, and I more-or-less befriended them all. I can’t wait to befriend yours too! I volunteer part-time, so I’m very fairly flexible! My most consistent schedule is: Monday to Wednesday : 8am-8pm Thursdays : 8am-4pm Occasionally, I am available on weekends. Contact me to request other days and times. Please also keep in mind that my main motive transportation is on foot or by bus, though I can carry a bag of supplies with me. Drop ins: (both cats and small dogs) I’m a calm person, so I am predictable to be around. I enjoy giving attention and affections of all kinds to your pets, though if they preferred to avoid me, I will always respect their boundaries! If I am walking your dog, I will only walk the route you give me. Boarding Stays: (Cats only!) I live with my friendly husband in a medium-large sized house. We are quiet people, so we will not be a nuisance to your cat. We own a small, spayed female cat, but she is very non-confrontational and we always keep her in a separate, closed off room when there are other pets or people around. I own a decently sized hooded litter box and scratching post that your cat can use. It’s strongly preferred that you bring your own food and toys. However, if it’s required, I can provide both dry and wet food, toys, and treats (Catit Creamy tubes and Temptations).

About: I’ve grown up with dogs ever since I was 5 years old! I absolutely adore all dogs— all shapes, breeds and sizes🐾 My grandfather has taught me a lot about dogs, he went to dog training and dog school for years. My mom followed along in his footsteps… owning dogs for most of her life. I have a 13lbs Cotton de Tulear that I love with all my heart. She is my everything, my world, my universe… (I’m sure you can understand my craziness here lol). I have thought my dog to walk off leash everywhere (streets, parks, with other dogs, etc). I trust her with my life and I know she trusts me equally as much. I will take care of your precious doggies as my very own little baby🥹 I’m currently working part time as a licensed hairdresser so I have lots of free time to give to your lovely fur babies! My availabilities are pretty flexible, just message me, we can work something out😁 I currently have 3 babies at home— a dog, a cat and a bird! I always ensure my home environment is safe and cozy for them🫶🏻 Before leaving for work, I fluff up their blankies and put on some relaxing meditation music so they feel safe and comforted once I leave the house. I have many coats/sweaters/boots of different variations for multiple weather temperatures to accommodate my baby so she can walk rain, snow or shine (even though she rather not get her feet wet in the rain🤣🥲) If your dog has any sensitivities, health conditions or allergies please let me know! I take your dogs health and wellbeing as an absolute priority🚨

About: I have volunteered at a veterinary clinic and worked at a doggy daycare where I have learned and had experience handling many different breeds and types of dogs. I am confident in my skills and love being around dogs. I currently own a beagle mix who is about 9 years old and full of energy. He needs lots of exercise, as I'm sure your little one may need as well. So, if your dog needs a little more than a 30-minute walk just let me know. If there is a date or dates that are not available on the calendar but you need someone, please send me a message. I am happy to provide any pictures and/or videos of the walk. If you have any questions please do no hesitate to ask me about anything that may be on your mind. I am taking pets on a case-by-case basis. I am looking for a full-time job but will continue to do this as long as I can. I respect everyone’s home as much as my own. I believe in a clean and safe environment. If you need me to get something from inside I will, if not I will not go past the door (provided that all the pet’s items are nearby).

About: Growing up in a pet-loving home, I found joy in caring for various animals. My family has 2 dogs, 3 cats and 2 bunnies. I am the number 1 babysitter for all of my family. I always stay in communication with the dogs owner by sending updates with pictures and videos. Pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily routine, as I prioritize their well-being. When I visit my family, I happily bring my dog for walks or to the dog park. Afterwards, I indulge in delightful moments with the cats, showering them with affection through gentle scratches. I provide pet care at home or in my client's home by ensuring their well-being. From feeding to playtime and exercise, I prioritize their happiness and health, fostering a loving environment for these cherished companions.

About: I have had cats, dogs and birds since childhood and then raised my children with dogs, cats, Iguanas and hamsters. We all love animals. I am also a certified senior caregiver, recently retired and have references which I am willing to share. Cats and dogs and other pets are truly innocent babies and deserve all the love and care we give to our own children ❤️ I take care of my families pets while they are away and vice versa. I am very recently retired from Senior care and am looking for some fun part time work with some darling little, or big, pet clients! ❤️ I live in a condo and have a small dog, a Boston Terrier mix, that I take for walks on the grounds and in the park. For my client’s larger dogs I would prefer to care for them in their own home.

About: With eight years of experience caring for friends' and family's dogs, along with a lifetime of having my own dogs, I bring a deep understanding and love for pets. I've also fostered cats and other animals, providing a well-rounded approach to animal care. I ensure pets of all ages receive the best attention and offer personalized care, tailoring activities to each pet's needs. I am known for my reliability and trustworthiness. Plus, my flexible scheduling accommodates both short-notice and regular appointments. During the summers, when I have full-time availability, pet care becomes my primary focus. I dedicate my days to ensuring pets receive the attention, exercise, and care they need to thrive. With flexible scheduling and ample time on my hands, I can accommodate various needs and preferences, from extended walks to extra playtime sessions. As a full-time student during the fall and winter, my availability changes. Despite academic commitments, I prioritize pet care during these times, ensuring that pets continue to receive the same level of attention and affection. Evenings are perfect for leisurely walks and quality bonding time, while weekends allow for more extended adventures and outings. Rest assured, my dedication to reliable and trustworthy pet care remains unwavering throughout the year, adapting seamlessly to accommodate both academic and pet care responsibilities. When caring for pets in clients' homes, I prioritize creating a comfortable and familiar environment for their beloved companions. I begin by familiarizing myself with the pet's routine, preferences, and any specific instructions provided by the owner. This ensures a seamless transition and minimizes stress for the pet. Throughout my time in the client's home, I maintain open communication with the owner, providing regular updates and photos to keep them informed and reassured. I adhere closely to the pet's feeding schedule, ensuring they receive proper nutrition and any necessary medications as instructed. Daily exercise and playtime are integral parts of my care routine, tailored to the pet's age, breed, and energy level. Whether it's a leisurely stroll around the neighborhood or an energetic game of fetch in the backyard, I ensure pets receive the physical activity they need to stay happy and healthy. In addition to physical care, I offer companionship and emotional support, spending quality time bonding with the pet through cuddles, grooming, and positive reinforcement. I respect the client's home and property, maintaining cleanliness and security throughout my stay. Ultimately, my goal is to provide reliable, compassionate, and personalized care that meets the unique needs of each pet and gives owners peace of mind knowing their furry family members are in good hands while they're away.

About: As a 27-year-old full-time employee downtown, life can get a bit boring! One of my favourite things to do is bonding with animals. Every animal's specific personality leaves its mark on my heart. My services include dog walking, dog/cat/fish pet sitting, and overnight care. If your pet is shy, a cuddler, or thinks humans are beneath them, I am there to fit into their life and make sure you get updates to ensure your mind is at ease. I'm very comfortable with reactive dogs, making sure they don't chomp on anything they are not supposed to while on their walks, keeping them safe, and also sometimes sprinting with them when the weather permits! :) I'm happy to provide references, and very excited to meet your fur babies! I have a very relaxed job and so work from home most of the time, with a flexible work schedule that I mostly set myself (the rest of it is set by deadlines!) I enjoy being given a purpose to change my routine, so regardless of early riser/late sleeper, your pet and I can hang out when it is comfortable for them. My biggest rule is that I never want to stress your pets out more than they are already stressed out - they miss you already, why would we relocate them! I ask that you provide me with their usual routine and keep to it to ensure that your pet is comfortable. With cats and dogs, I make sure to keep a comfortable distance and let them smell and see me exist around them for a while before I attempt any contact. All we need is safety with animals, and it is my utmost priority :)

About: I have grown up my entire life with several different kinds of animals and breeds. I’ve had cats, fish, dogs (big and small), and even a hermit crab. I have also taken horseback riding lessons and still ride leisurely when I have the time. I have friends and family who own farms and have asked me to help them around while they have been on vacation, therefore I have been with many different kinds of animals. I am a full time dental hygiene student who would love to find a flexible schedule to work and spend my free time with animals on a regular basis. Feeding my pets, cleaning the cat litter. I’ve had dogs in the past- big and small including a Labrador, Border Collie and a Yorkshire Terrier which I would walk. I’ve also taken care of my family’s two Saint Bernard Dogs while they have gone on vacation.

Jess and Erik were absolutely amazing caregivers to our cat. They were extremely communicative, sent updates with photos and left a thorough report for us after each visit. Before booking, they asked all pertinent questions to make sure to provide the best care and attention for our cat. You can really tell they love animals and go above and beyond to ensure we (the owners) are comfortable and the animal feels secure and happy. Thank you so much, would definitely recommend this couple to care for your pets while you are away!

I am responsible, fluent in both French and English and reliable! I’ve babysat and walked dogs for friends in the past, as well as done babysitting with children in the past. All I want to do is walk dogs and help care for them as a hobby and part time gig. I am myself a cat owner of a geriatric cat of 20 years old and a younger cat of 2 years old!

I am currently working full time, so I am free for all pets everyday after work (except for Wednesdays) and all day Friday and Saturday! I always make sure first and foremost that the pets look healthy and are not ill in any way. I make sure they are feed and then make sure to keep them company/ and play with them !

About: Bonjour! Je m’appelle Roxanne et je suis entourée de chiens depuis plusieurs années. Mon propre chien, Loki, a maintenant 3 ans et, disons-le, il m’a obligée à en apprendre beaucoup sur les soins, l’éducation et la gestion des cocos à quatre pattes! Même s’il n’est pas toujours le plus brillant, j’ai réussi à lui enseigner les commandes de base ainsi que quelques tours supplémentaires. Je le promène deux fois par jour : une fois en après-midi et une autre en soirée avant le coucher. Je travaille à temps partiel de 7 h à 15 h 30, ce qui me permet d’offrir mes services aux propriétaires qui travaillent de soir ou de nuit. Que ce soit pour une promenade occasionnelle ou un besoin régulier, n’hésitez pas à me contacter. I also speak English if needed! Just send me a message :) **My schedule changes each week, I’ll do my best to accommodate you. Mon horaire chaque chaque semaine, je vais faire de mon mieux pour vous accommoder.** Mes disponibilités varient selon les semaines! Je travaille une fin de semaine sur deux ainsi que certains jours de semaine. J’adore marcher, peu importe la météo : soleil, pluie ou neige, ça ne me fait pas peur! Je peux m’occuper de certaines médications, brossage, pratiques de “tricks” ainsi que simplement brûler leur énergie. J’ai aussi une voiture ainsi que des ceintures de sécurité pour chien!

Ashley took such amazing care of our 2 cats over 2 weeks! It was our first time on Rover and we are so happy with her service. It really took a weight off during our trip knowing they were so well taken care of. She really paid attention to the little things and you can tell she loves animals so it all comes naturally. Would definitely recommend her service to anyone :)

You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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 Dollard-Des Ormeaux 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.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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:

  • 89% 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.
