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 working part time so I can dedicate the majority of my week 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.
About: Hi! I’m Leanne — a caring, responsible, and trusted pet sitter offering a live-in pet sitting service. I’d love the opportunity to care for your pets and home while you’re away! ── 💕 MY SERVICE IS ESPECIALLY WELL-SUITED FOR PETS WHO: - Experience stress when left alone for extended periods - Need frequent bathroom breaks - Are very social or enjoy company - Have special routines or additional care needs ── ⏰ YOUR PET’S ROUTINE COMES FIRST: I understand how important consistency is for animals.

Your instructions become my priority, so your pets can feel comfortable and settled while you’re away. ── 🏡 CARING FOR YOUR HOME: Because I’m on the property for the majority of the time, your home receives an added level of attention while you’re away. Most importantly, I treat your home with the same respect and care I would want for my own. ── ❤️ A LIFETIME OF CARING FOR ANIMALS Animals have always been an important part of my life. My wonderful cat, Archie, taught me how to carefully administer medication and, more importantly, how to become highly attuned to an animal’s needs through body language and non-verbal communication. I had a beloved frog named Fern who lived an incredible 24 years as well. These experiences have given me a deep appreciation for how different every animal can be — and how important it is to understand and respect their individual personalities, needs, and routines. ── 📸 COMMUNICATION & PEACE OF MIND: While you’re away, I’ll keep you updated with regular photos and messages so you can see how your pets are doing.

Thank you for understanding! - Large dog breeds must be able to walk well on a leash — I can handle big dogs, but not REACTIVE big dogs. I currently work remotely, so have plenty of time to work my schedule around your pets. I am available 7 days week, day and night. I do not currently offer boarding in my home, however safety is my top priority when caring for your animals at your house. I make sure to follow your rules and keep your animals schedule as close to what they are accustomed to.
About: I am an animal lover since birth, with both parents retired Veterinarian that can easily provide with help and advice if need be! I cared for my cat with renal issue for that last year and he sadly loss passed away from cancer. I am comfortable giving meds and providing basic medical care if needed. I will also not hesitate to bring your animal to the closest veterinarian if needed. I was always stressed to leave my cat alone and was always grateful to my friend who could stay with him when I was away. I now want to help others do the same things ! I work 12hrs shift at the hospital but I will always be home morning and night to be with your animal, and during my days off ! Je suis une grande amoureuse des animaux depuis toujours. Mes deux parents sont des vétérinaires à la retraite, donc je peux facilement faire appel à leur aide et à leurs conseils au besoin! J’ai pris soin de mon chat qui souffrait de problèmes rénaux au cours de la dernière année. Malheureusement, il nous a quittés après avoir développé un cancer. Je suis à l’aise de donner des médicaments et de prodiguer des soins de base au besoin. Je n’hésiterai également jamais à amener votre animal chez le vétérinaire le plus proche si la situation l’exige. J’ai toujours été stressée de laisser mon chat seul lorsque je devais m’absenter, et j’ai toujours été très reconnaissante envers mes amis qui pouvaient rester avec lui en mon absence. Maintenant, j’aimerais pouvoir offrir cette même tranquillité d’esprit à d’autres propriétaires d’animaux! Je travaille des quarts de 12 heures à l’hôpital, mais je serai toujours à la maison matin et soir pour m’occuper de votre animal, ainsi que pendant mes journées de congé. 🐾❤️ I work 12 hrs shift but I am often home morning, nights and on my days off ! I will definitely prioritize staying with your cat but might have to leave the apartment a few hours at a time I have everything at home to care for a cat, but I am not allowed to have dogs. Im open to keep more than one cat if they are behaving well together

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Dorval is $33 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $36 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
There are 1,832 sitters on Rover for Pet Sitting in Dorval. About 84% of Dorval sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
You can coordinate how much supervision you want directly with your sitter. While every sitter’s schedule varies, here are some examples of supervision by pet care service:
- Boarding or doggy day care: Many sitters can provide frequent companionship because they design their day specifically around the pets in their care or work from home.
- House sitting: Your sitter generally stays in your home for the requested duration, which may include overnight care. They may step out briefly to visit other pet clients, but your home remains their primary base.
- Drop-in visits or dog walking: These can be scheduled in 30- or 60-minute windows (and can be shorter or longer at your request) to help your pet receive dedicated attention and care during those specific times.
Interested in constant or 24/7 care? This service often incurs an additional fee but many sitters are happy to discuss this option with you.
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!
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 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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
