About: Fr: Grandir avec des chiens dès l'âge de 7 ans m'a appris la véritable signification de l'engagement envers un animal. Pour moi, un animal de compagnie est un membre de la famille à part entière. Tout au long de ma vie, je me suis occupée à 100 % de l'éducation et du bien-être général de mes chiens : de leur alimentation, leurs bains et leurs promenades quotidiennes, jusqu'aux visites chez le vétérinaire, la prise de médicaments et un accompagnement rempli d'amour durant leur vieillesse. De plus, de manière autodidacte et avec beaucoup de patience, j'ai dressé mon dernier chien pour qu'il soit très obéissant, en lui apprenant des ordres comme s'asseoir, aboyer sur commande et chercher des objets. En: Growing up with dogs since I was 7 years old taught me the true meaning of commitment to an animal. For me, a pet is a full-fledged family member. Throughout my life, I have been 100% involved in the training and overall well-being of my dogs: from their feeding, baths, and daily walks, to vet visits, medication administration, and providing loving care through their senior years. Additionally, through self-teaching and a lot of patience, I trained my last dog to be very obedient, teaching him commands like sit, bark on command, and fetch objects. Fr: Aujourd'hui au Canada, je me consacre au soin des animaux. Le matin, je vais à l'école, puis je passe tout le reste de l'après-midi et la soirée à la maison. Je vis avec ma compagne, qui aime elle aussi énormément les animaux, ce qui signifie qu'il y a presque toujours une présence attentionnée à la maison. Notre horaire est idéal pour les animaux qui ont l'habitude de passer quelques heures seuls le matin en toute tranquillité. Dès mon retour l'après-midi, je me consacre entièrement à eux pour leurs promenades, leurs jeux et toute l'attention dont ils ont besoin. Disponibilité pour les promenades, garderie de jour et visites à domicile : • Du lundi au vendredi : de 15h00 à 22h00 • Samedi et dimanche : de 11h00 à 15h00. En: Today in Canada, I am fully dedicated to caring for pets. In the morning, I attend school, and then I spend the rest of the afternoon and evening at home. I live with my partner, who also loves animals very much, which means there is almost always an attentive presence at home. Our schedule is ideal for pets that are used to spending a few quiet hours alone in the morning. As soon as I return in the afternoon, I devote myself entirely to them for their walks, playtime, and all the attention they need. Availability for walks, daycare and drop-in visits: • Monday to Friday: 3:00 PM to 10:00 PM • Saturday and Sunday: 11:00 AM to 3:00 PM. Fr: J'offre un environnement familial, sécuritaire et rempli d'affection, que ce soit chez moi ou directement chez vous. Je m'adapte toujours aux besoins particuliers de votre animal et à ses routines d'exercice, de repas et de repos. Pour votre tranquillité d'esprit, j'envoie régulièrement des nouvelles accompagnées de photos et de vidéos lors de chaque visite ou promenade. De plus, comme je me déplace à vélo ou à pied dans mon quartier (Notre-Dame-de-Grâce et les environs), je garantis une excellente ponctualité à chaque rendez-vous. En: I offer a family-friendly, safe, and loving environment, whether at my home or directly at yours. I always adapt to your pet's specific needs and their exercise, feeding, and rest routines. For your peace of mind, I send regular updates with photos and videos during every visit or walk. Additionally, since I get around by bike or on foot in my neighborhood (Notre-Dame-de-Grâce and the surrounding areas), I guarantee excellent punctuality for every appointment.
“Marianne a passé la journée chez nous avec nos animaux!!! Je n’ai que de bons mots pour elle. Elle nous a rapidement mit en confiance. Elle est arrivée à l’heure! Elle s’est occupé un peu plus de notre chien qui avait eu une opération quelques jours plus tôt! Je recommande Marianne et je n’hésiterai pas à utiliser ses services à nouveaux!”
About: I have lot of practice caring for all types of animals, as well as animal training experience. Comfortable working with small and large dogs and cats. My schedule is very flexible. I will be able to accommodate any times that meet you're needs. I am available monday to sunday and most holidays. I live in a home with a large yard that is fenced in perfect for fetch and other outdoor activites. I have plently of space for a crate indoors if needed pets are welcomed to roam free as well.
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.
About: I’ve been sitting privately with loyal clients that have grown because of their referrals. I’ve sat a diverse group of clients from 3 furry friends under one roof to 1 with an asthma pump. Pet sitting is a great fit into my routine! As a masters student who lives far from school, house sitting simplifies the trips. A greater benefit is in having to take care of a pet, I remember to take care of myself. So the walks and set times to eat go a long way I am used to having a personalized care plans for all clients. Dogsitting is a time for me to be alone as I work with people all day (no parties)
“Absolutely amazing. She was so amazing with my puppy and super communicative! Received updates every morning afternoon and night along with images and videos. I felt so reassured and calm leaving my puppy with her after seeing how amazing she was with him and with all the updates I received. STRONGLY recommend! I will be using her again!”
About: Not only I dog sit 4 dogs at same time, I take care of my two baby cats in daily life too( sometimes I hangout with my friend’s dog) . I consider myself a good photographer for pets aha My schedule is flexible and most of my weekdays are free but some days I work till 5pm, please be sure to reserve a day before:) I love walking dogs and playing with cats, I try my best to keep pets busy and accompanied. I always make sure to take as many pix/videos as I can to send them to the owners, and keep them updated for their fur babies
“Our pets were clearly very cared for and received lots of attention. They felt comfortable from the first meet & greet and enjoyed the weekend. Thanks again for everything”
About: Bon matin ! Je m’appelle Keyliah, je suis une expatriée française venue à Montréal pour faire des études en biologie, et je vous propose mes services de petsitting ! Cela fait déjà 2 ans que je fais du petsitting en France. J’ai gardé des chiens, des chats et un hamster. Je suis tout à fait à l’aise avec le fait de garder plusieurs animaux à la fois (mon record était de 5 chats en simultané !) et j’ai déjà administré des médicaments oraux à des chats et à des NACs (gélules et Ventoline). Comme vous avez pu le deviner, je suis passionnée d’animaux. J’ai moi-même eu un chien (dogue argentin), un hamster russe et 6 rats ! Je suis donc ouverte à toutes les espèces d’animaux. En tant qu’étudiante, j’ai beaucoup de temps libre notamment en après midi et en fin de journée. Je vis avec mon partenaire étudiant aussi qui a des horaires différentes des miennes, il y a donc souvent quelqu’un à mon domicile Si vous avez besoin d’une garde à mon domicile, je vis en appartement au rez-de-chaussée. Il n’y a pas de jardin, mais il y a un superbe parc proche de mon domicile pour les promenades ! En faisant appel à mes services, vous aurez des nouvelles quotidiennes de vos animaux, avec de magnifiques photos prises par mes soins. Si votre animal a un besoin spécifique, tel qu’une administration de médicament oral ou une approche particulière dû à son vécu, etc., je n’hésiterai pas à m’adapter à lui pour qu’il ait une expérience de garde sécuritaire et sereine, pour lui comme pour vous, les propriétaires !
“Hiba was very attentive and caring for Boozer while we were out. She was so accommodating and was understanding about some concerns we had (a very scary experience with another Rover care giver). She put us at ease, and was a pleasure to work with, we would highly recommend her services! Thank you Hiba!”
“Yiran was wonderful! She took a great care of our cat and sent us several pictures each day while we were away. Our cat is very energetic and Yiran spent a lot of time playing with him. We came back to a very happy and content cat and I thank Yiran for that! I will definitely go to her again the next time we are out of town.”
About: Hi! I've been an animal lover my whole life with a particular love for dogs. I've been caring for my friends' pets for years and then started getting requests from some of their friends, and since I love it and found myself in a position where I need to find some more work, I figured I'd make myself available to more fur babies! I'm really only interested in caring for dogs, though I do love cats too, but there are allergies to contend with. I'm without any animals living here, so your dog can get undivided and attention. I'm happy to have them stay here, take them on frequent walks, and I can offer to work on some basic training skills if you like. I'm also available to walk from your place or just do drop-ins to give them some love! If you need someone to care for and spend some time with your pup, let me know! I'm working on a flexible schedule and often work from home, so I can dedicate my time around the needs of your fur baby. We can discuss your specific needs and make sure it all works. I have no other pets to worry about. I don't have a fenced in yard, but I live in a quiet neighborhood with time for frequent walks. I'm happy to bring your pup to the dog park if you prefer but I typically prefer to take on frequent long walks (if they are able). And for socialization, I have friends with well socialized neutral non-reactive dogs in fenced in yards for playtime (if you like).
“Lorenço is the sitter you're looking for! He's been caring for my energetic 4-month-old terrier several days a week and has consistently been reliable, patient and understanding (especially during the ongoing puppy biting phase!) He adapts to Watson's needs and treats him like his own. I always know Watson is in great hands while I'm at work. I trust Lorenço completely and highly recommend him. 15/10!”
About: I have loads of experience with dogs of any size and needs as well as cats! I have been around animals and sitting for them since I was 10 for neighbours, friends and family and have a soft spot for any animal! I currently am going to school and working part-time. During the afternoons and on the weekends, I am available to help you take care of any needs your pet requires! I have 2 cats at home as well as a family dog. I know first hand that things can get disorganized. I assure you that I’ll take care of your pet and home as if it was my own to ensure a happy and safe service for you, your pets and your home :)
“Sonia did a great job sitting our two dogs for four days! One of our dogs, Flynn, is not really social and is afraid of strangers. However, Sonia was able to handle it really good! She was very patient and lovely with him. My two dogs enjoyed their time with her. She followed our instructions and followed very well the schedule that we established for our dogs. We definitely will request services from her in the future.”
About: I have been around and taken care of many family and friends pets, on occasion, throughout my life. I just recently officially introduced myself to the pet owner life. No matter the personality or energy level of your pet I am ready to be there and take care. I mainly work as an actor. This means that most of the time I have off unless I have a role. Due to the fact that my availability is completely open most of time and I am not fixed to a weekly schedule, I am able to offer my services any time. Even last minute. The owner would be fully aware of anything I can/will do. I am there to not only take care of your pet but also your home.
About: Je suis né entourée d’animaux. J’ai vu mes chiens passer de petits bébés à de grands chiens et mes petits chats grandir. Je me suis occupée d’eux bébé, adultes et parfois plus âgés. Je pense que cela me rends apte à m’occuper de n’importe lequel de vos amis à poil et de m’adapter à leur besoins spécifiques. Je suis actuellement étudiante à l’ÉTS, je suis donc disponible lors des pauses dîners et des demis journées où je n’ai pas cours ainsi que les week end pour m’occuper de vos animaux. Je ne garde que les chats dans mon appartement si ceux là sont habitué à une vie en intérieur. Chez vous je m’adapte à vos règles et aux besoins de vos animaux pour m’assurer que le changement les impactent le moins possible.
About: I grew up surrounded by dogs, so caring for them has always been a natural part of my life. I’m now a Shiba Inu dog mom and I’ve raised since he was a puppy so I understand how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your pet. Having him has taught me a lot about patience, routines, and how different every dog’s personality can be. I also have experience caring for cats and really enjoy getting to know each pet and what makes them feel comfortable. Whether that means going for walks, playing, keeping them company, or simply sticking to their usual routine, I try to make things feel as normal as possible while their family is away. I’m also a certified dog groomer, which has given me even more hands-on experience working with dogs of different breeds, ages, and temperaments. I currently offer house sitting and pet sitting in your home, so I can keep your pets comfortable in their own familiar environment and maintain their normal routine as closely as possible. My schedule can be flexible depending on your pet’s needs. I’m happy to follow their usual feeding, walking, playtime, sleep, and care schedule while you’re away. When I’m caring for pets in their own home, I make it a priority to follow the routine and instructions their family provides. I pay close attention to doors, gates, leashes, feeding instructions, and anything else related to their safety. I also respect your home and will make sure your pet receives plenty of supervision, affection, playtime, walks, and quiet time depending on their personality and needs. I’m happy to send regular photo and video updates so you know how they’re doing.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Hampstead is $50
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Hampstead
Sarah was a godsend for me and my cat. She's well versed in cat behavior, and my shy cat came out of her shell and relaxed in Sarah's company. I was able to relax on my holiday knowing my cat is in good company. Sarah sent regular updates, took care of all of my cats needs and also went the extra mile to take care of my home in my absence. I would highly recommend Sarah, her energy is complimentary to cats' energies and she's a gentle and loving caregiver to cats. Would definitely rebook.
Absolutely amazing. She was so amazing with my puppy and super communicative! Received updates every morning afternoon and night along with images and videos. I felt so reassured and calm leaving my puppy with her after seeing how amazing she was with him and with all the updates I received. STRONGLY recommend! I will be using her again!
Merci Mélanie! Mon chien, qui n’est pas toujours facile, a apprivoisé Mélanie rapidement! Elle est calme et à l’aise avec les animaux, et ça se sent :) Je n’avais aucun stress à partir pour la nuit. J’ai eu des nouvelles, et tout était rassurant. Encore merci ☀️
Vladyslava was amazing! She stayed at our home for a week to watch our dog and cat. Our dog, Boba, is a very anxious pup, so it did take some time for her to adjust, but Vladyslava took the time to work with Boba and had many options to work with her. Boba did come around and had a great time going for walks and hanging out in the sunshine. Vladyslava left the home very clean and clearly respected our space. We will definitely have Vladyslava back again to watch our furbabies.
It was my first time using the app. Presley arrived on time and took care of my dog Tobby while I was away. I was very pleased to see that he was calm and didn’t seem anxious with her at our home. She kept me updated while I was away which I greatly appreciated. I look forward to having her come back in the near future:)
We were very happy that Nathalie was free to housesit our two dogs again. She is always responsible, reliable, and treats our space with respect. Our dogs love her! It makes our travel a lot more stress free knowing they’re in good hands. Would highly recommend her services!
Megan is absolutely wonderful. We left our rescue who is not the easiest to care for with her over the holidays and felt completely at ease knowing she was experienced with reactive dogs. She sent us tons of photos every day, and left our apartment spotless. Would recommend her to anyone, she is a true gem. She was also flexible and able to stay longer when our flight home got canceled. So happy to have found her and will be booking her again without hesitation!

Enter your address and booking dates to see which sitters are available near you. You can also message multiple sitters to improve your chances of finding the right care.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Hampstead 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 Hampstead 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 Hampstead 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 .
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Payment is handled securely through Rover. For a one-time booking, 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 .
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 87% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
