About: About 5 years ago, my family and I added a new member to our family. My life changed ever since that day. I never knew love for animals could grow this big but here we are. I think every dog deserves this type of love and I am here to provide that. I’m currently working part-time and am not in school so my schedule is VERY flexible and free. I am also willing to make all necessary adjustments to please my clients. ☺️ I have a pup at home, so I am very used to that fur baby lifestyle. All equipment needed is required in my service apart from collars or harnesses due to different sizing for different doggies.

About: Animals have always been a passion of mine ever since I was a kid. My animal care experience begins on my uncle’s farm where I would help out with the chickens, the sheep and even the donkey. I loved taking care of animals so much that I became a camper at La Ferme d’André for 6 years. I also took part in the Youth Ambassador Program at the SPCA, where I got specialized training on dog and cat behaviour, and worked closely with special needs pets. I have been regularly petsitting since 2022. The animals I have taken care of include dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, mice, fish and rats. I have experience administering medicine, caring for seniors as well as puppies and kittens. I love getting to know each animal’s personality and needs! I’m currently self-employed so I can dedicate the majority of my time to taking care of animals. I am available on weekdays, weekends, in the mornings, afternoons, evenings and at night as need be. I am eager to honour and respect every home that I visit and will happily follow any special instructions. Most pet owners I have sat for have requested daily pet pics, which I am more than happy to provide! I can also conduct house sitting tasks such as watering plants or opening/closing blinds at certain hours if need be.
“My goodness, Maire is truly exceptional. I have a very energetic Bernedoodle puppy, and she handles her with such patience, and ease. Ru absolutely adores her, and so do I. I recently had an unexpected emergency, and Maire stepped in without hesitation to care for Ru in my absence. That kind of reliability and heart means everything. She has the calmest, sweetest spirit, and you can genuinely feel how much she loves animals. I cannot recommend Maire highly enough. She is a gift. 🐶✨”
About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember! Growing up, I was surrounded by animals, which sparked my passion and provided me with invaluable hands-on experience. My family cared for dogs (2), cats (2), rabbits (1), hamsters (3), birds (10+), and fish (10+). I even practiced horseback riding as a child, gaining experience in stable maintenance and saddling horses. Over the years, I’ve worked in various animal focused settings, including shelters, pet shops, and dog boarding centers, accumulating over 8 years of professional experience. In 2021, I founded Passion for Paws, a nonprofit organization dedicated to rehoming dogs through a foster-based system. As the Founder and CEO, I work to provide exceptional care to every dog that comes into our organization, treating them as if they were my own. Families trust me to care for their beloved pets when they can no longer do so, and I help find those pets loving forever homes. I also hold a certification in dog obedience and behavior and have intermediate knowledge of animal healthcare, particularly with dogs and cats. I have hands on experience administering medications, addressing behavioral needs, and providing specialized care for a wide range of animals. Caring for animals is my life’s passion, and I am confident I can provide your furry family member with the love and care they deserve! As the CEO of my own organization, I have the flexibility to create my own schedule and work primarily from home (about 85% of the time). This allows me to easily adapt my routine to accommodate your pet's needs. In addition to this flexibility, I am a highly structured, dedicated, and active individual, ensuring that your pet will receive the attention, care, and lifestyle they deserve. The care I provide for your pet will be tailored to their unique profile and specific needs. I will ensure they receive the appropriate amount of physical and mental stimulation based on their activity levels. My goal is to keep your pet fulfilled, relaxed, and genuinely happy while you are gone.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in Dorval. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighbourhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
<b>Tip:</b> Keep in mind that many cities in Canada require your dog walker to have a permit or licence for group walks.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Dorval after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.

To find walkers in Dorval with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.
Every walker 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.

Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
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 Dorval 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!
