“Graeme is amazing with Cocoa! Took him for a really long walk today and played with him. Cocoa loves him and I feel really good about leaving my dog there. I know he will be happy and that he is in good hands.”

“Sondos is super chill and easy going and managed Peaches beautifully even while watching her own baby. I appreciated her easy going nature and Peaches seemed super relaxed from the get go.”

“This was a wonderful first experience for Leia. As first-time users, we really appreciated receiving photos and updates - it gave us peace of mind knowing she was in a loving home and being so well cared for. Thank you, Anh and Quang!”

“Sarah is unbelievably kind and gentle with my new puppy Joni. Sarah used to be our Montreal Sitter for our first dog May as well. We highly recommend Sarah. She has great instincts with dogs. She is also a dog groomer!!!!”


About: I’ve always loved the way dogs bring joy, personality, laughter, and comfort into everyday life. Caring for them comes naturally to me, and I put a lot of intention into making sure each dog feels safe, relaxed, and understood. I love creating a calm, comfortable space for dogs to settle in. I take the time to learn each dog’s routine, quirks, and comfort level so they can feel cared for and at ease. I’m patient, observant, and committed to following the guidelines you set so your dog feels right at home. Here’s what your dog can expect: • A peaceful, comfortable environment • Gentle attention and affection • Walks, playtime, and enrichment based on their energy level • Consistency with your rules and routines • Clear communication and regular updates My goal is for your dog to feel secure and happy — and for you to feel completely at ease while they’re with me. I work from home, so your dog will have company for most of the day. I’m around and attentive, which means plenty of companionship, playtime, and regular trips outside whenever they need a break. The only day I’m typically out of the house is Thursday, but I make sure pets in my care have everything they need before and after I’m gone. My home becomes your pet’s home while they’re here. Dogs are welcome to relax on the couch or curl up in bed—unless you prefer to keep those spaces off‑limits, in which case I’ll happily follow your rules. I also have a spacious backyard that’s mostly fenced, giving dogs room to explore and enjoy some fresh air. Plus, I live in a great area for walks, with several parks nearby and a couple of lovely dog parks for pups who enjoy social time and extra exercise.
“Melissa saved my bacon. My poor 3 month old puppy wasn't keen to be left in a new place, and she did everything to reassure her, kept in touch with me in a reassuring and helpful way. I already had confidence in her from a first shorter visit, but that confidence has been quadrupled after today! Thanks Melissa.”

“Amazing stay as always! Steven always takes good care of our Cookie and updates with photos and messages so that we're always up to date with what's happening. There's nobody better for us :) thank you!”

“J’ai eu une excellente expérience avec Audrey comme gardienne pour mon chien. Elle a fait preuve d’un grand professionnalisme, de douceur et d’attention. On sent immédiatement qu’elle aime les animaux, et mon chien s’est rapidement attaché à elle. À mon retour, mon chien était heureux, en confiance et visiblement très bien traité. Je recommande Audrey sans hésitation à toute personne qui cherche quelqu’un de fiable et attentionné pour s’occuper de son animal.”

“Carolina & Francisco B. will be by far our first choice when we need a dog sitter. It was a first time home away for our son (Ranga, a 9 months old toy poodle). He literally had a great time. He made two new friends, Cleo and Lola:) During that time, she kept sending us the text messages, pictures and videos about Ranga, eliminating the stress of leaving our dog behind for the first time. We would be happy to use the services again.”

About: Les chiens ont toujours occupé une grande place dans nos vies. On a tous les deux grandi avec eux et on a adoré chaque instant. Au fil des années, on a partagé notre maison avec un basset hound, un bouvier bernois, un toy poodle, un carlin et un berger de pologne, et on les a tous entraînés nous-mêmes. Chacun avait sa propre personnalité et son propre tempérament, et chacun nous a appris quelque chose de nouveau ! On est un couple actif et on adore vraiment emmener les chiens en course ou en longue balade. On n'a pas de chien à la maison en ce moment, alors honnêtement, ce serait un vrai plaisir de se balader et de courir avec le vôtre. Que votre chien soit du genre canapé ou débordant d'énergie, on s'adaptera à son rythme et à son style. Dogs have always been a big part of our lives. We both grew up with them and loved every moment of it. Over the years, we've shared our home with a basset hound, a bernese mountain dog, a toy poodle, a pug, and a polish lowland sheepdog, and trained them all ourselves. Each one had their own personality and temperament, and each one taught us something new! We're an active couple and genuinely love bringing dogs along for runs or long walks. We currently don't have a dog at home, so honestly, it would be such a pleasure to go on walks and runs with yours. Whether your pup is a couch potato or a bundle of energy, we will adapt and match their style. On travaille tous les deux de la maison la plupart du temps, ce qui nous donne une belle flexibilité dans nos journées. On peut facilement intégrer des visites et des promenades à notre routine, sans que ça soit fait à la va-vite. Que ce soit une balade le matin, un check-in en milieu de journée ou une visite en après-midi, on s'adapte à l'horaire de votre animal. We both work from home most days, which means our days are pretty flexible. We can easily fit drop-in visits and dog walks into our routine without it feeling rushed. Whether it's a morning walk, a midday check-in, or an afternoon visit, we're able to adapt to your pet's schedule rather than the other way around! Quand on se rend chez vous, notre priorité c'est que votre animal se sente en sécurité et à l'aise dans son propre espace. On sait que les animaux sont toujours plus détendus dans un environnement familier, alors on respecte leurs routines, leurs habitudes, et on prend le temps de laisser les animaux plus timides ou nerveux apprivoiser notre présence à leur propre rythme. Pour les promenades, on reste attentifs en tout temps. On observe le langage corporel, on reste dans des zones sécuritaires et on s'assure que chaque sortie soit une belle expérience pour votre chien. Votre maison et votre animal sont entre des mains attentionnées et bienveillantes ! When we come to your home, our priority is making sure your pet feels safe and comfortable in their own space. We know that animals are always more relaxed in a familiar environment, so we follow their routines, respect their habits, and take the time to let shy or nervous pets warm up to us at their own pace. For dog walks, we stay attentive at all times. We keep an eye on body language, stay in safe areas, and make sure every outing is a good experience for your pup. Your home and your pet are in careful, caring hands!
About: My partner and I have been caring for dogs together for years through Rover, building a strong track record of happy pets and glowing reviews on his profile. Now that we have moved to Montreal, I am starting my own account so local dog parents can book us directly. Same team, same care, same love. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted us to walk, feed, bathe, and keep their pets happy and comfortable. We also foster dogs and are actively involved with a rescue organization here in Montreal, so we are experienced with dogs of all backgrounds, temperaments, and needs. We are excited to bring that same warmth and dedication to pups here. We treat every dog like our own. We work as a team, so your dog always has someone around. We are available for boarding, drop-in visits, and walks, and we will make sure your pup gets plenty of attention, outdoor time, and love every single day. We both work from home :) We live in a pet friendly apartment with a balcony, giving your pup fresh air and a change of scenery throughout the day. Our home is calm, clean, and set up with your dog’s comfort and safety in mind. We have no pets of our own, so your dog gets our full, undivided attention. We are happy to follow any routines, dietary needs, or rules you have in place to make your pup feel right at home.
“Sarah K is truly wonderful. From the first day Sarah and family took care of our dog, it was clear how loving and attentive they are. They took such kind, thoughtful care of our dog, and we were especially touched by how quickly our very anxious pup felt comfortable in their home. Their experience as long-time dog owners, especially with dogs who have special needs, gave us complete peace of mind. We knew our dog's need to feel safe and secure would be understood and respected, and they absolutely delivered. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. 10/10 would recommend!”

“Russell is incredible, kind and patient. My dog was treated with love and patience. Russell sent me a lot of updates (pictures and videos) during the day of the walks, the naps, the play time. The place is really clean, a lot of space and a yard where Newton was able to laydown/playlike. My dog loves his family. I recommend him 100%. 🫶🏻 thank you SO much”

“Leaving Lucas with Nomida was one of the best decisions I could have made. From the very beginning, I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such a caring and loving home. She kept me updated every day with photos, videos, and messages, which meant so much while I was away. It was obvious that Lucas was happy, comfortable, and treated like part of the family. When I picked him up, he was relaxed, healthy, and clearly had an amazing time. You can truly tell that Nomida loves and cares for every dog as if they were her own. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to book with her again, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and attentive. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of Lucas—we’re so grateful!”

“Margot has been absolutely fantastic with Link. She always makes sure he’s comfortable and properly socialised with any other dogs she’s taking care of that day. Her love for dogs is clear and she has the skills to match. Margo is also very communicative and keeps us up-to-date with information and pictures throughout the day. Taking the boy on many walks and making sure he’s properly loved. It’s become a second home for Link, and we couldn’t be happier.”

Your dog’s first day care experience is a big milestone! To help your pup settle in comfortably, we recommend:
- Food and treats portioned for the day, with feeding instructions
- Your dog's leash and collar (ensure tags are up-to-date)
- Any seasonal gear, such as paw-safe wax for winter or a cooling vest for the summer
- Medication, if applicable, with clear dosage notes
- Any special care instructions or training tips to help your sitter provide the most personalized care possible
Tip: Upload this information directly through the Rover app before drop-off. The more context you provide, the better your sitter can tailor the day to your dog.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Dorval commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in QC ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines such as the DHPP or DA2PP, Rabies, and Bordetella.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
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.
