“Jessica did an amazing job with my puppy Sandy. We rescued Sandy from south Carolina and Jessica took very good care of her on our very first week back home from the US. Sandy LOVED spending time with her and Jessica gave us update every day on how she was doing and i really appreciated it. I would recommend her services 100% and I'm looking forward to ask for her help again in the future. 10/10”

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!

About: Hello there! my name is Amira, and I am a passionate animal lover with years of experience in dog sitting and caring for various breeds and personalities. I had dogs and cats since a very young age and displayed a profound interest in learning about the different breed's characteristics, as well as about how to interact, play and create a bond with them. Throughout the years of experience and dedication I have developed skills and ease on how to naturally establish complicity with animals, as well as how to adjust my approach and care to the dog's character. I understand that each dog is unique and has specific needs, and I am dedicated to providing personalized care tailored to your preferences and requirements and can easily establish complicity with them. I know how to train dogs to learn the basics. I also have some experience with dogs displaying behavioral issues and will gladly provide some tricks to help the dog improve, be less anxious or nervous when they see other mates. I'm flexible; I am willing to accommodate your schedule and your dog's routine to provide a stress-free experience for both you and your pet. I genuinely love dogs and will treat your pet with the same love and care as if they were my own. You can count on me to be punctual, reliable and responsible in providing care for your pet. Feel free to reach out to me to discuss your dog's needs and schedule a meet-and-greet. I can't wait to meet your furry friend and provide them with love and attention and tailored care. Thank you for considering me as your dog sitter. I look forward to the opportunity to care for your beloved pet! Amira Im currently only working from home part-time from the computer (2 hours) and will have plenty of time to look after, care and play with your pet. A typical playful day of care involves engaging in stimulating activities, providing attention and lots of love to ensure your pup is happy, well cared for and relaxed while you're away. We can agree on a Meet & Greet session before taking in your pets, which can be scheduled prior to the sit dates if you wish to make you and your pack more comfortable and ensure that care is tailored and suited to their needs.

About: My passion has now become my job. Working with animals in a vet clinic has been the best experience of my life. I deeply care for each animal I meet. I have cared for animals at clients houses and at my house. Your animals will be loved and cared for as if they were my own. I have delt with healthy animals and sick animals. I am ready to learn new things as I care for your animal and their special needs. I work a full time job. I would be available mornings, nights and weekends. My schedule can vary, so it all depends of that and the request you have. Having two cats of my own, I have always dreamn't of having a dog. I try to have contact with every animal I can, as they are my therapy. No animal is too big nor too small. When I was younger, I would always ask to go pet dogs that I crossed in the streets. This love for animals was passed down from my granparents who had many animals. They taught me how to be gentil, patient, caring, understanding and loving towards any person/animal.

About: I’ve had 2 dogs and a cat at home in the last 20 years. I’ve babysat and walked my friends dogs many times as well. I love animals, I know how important it is for you to know that you can trust who is walking and taking care of them! I’m currently a stay at home mom. I like to keep active, so dog walking and pet care is the perfect combo. We have a fenced in yard at our home for extra outdoor time for pets. Our home has a fenced in, green yard with enough space to play or chill out in shade or sun. I own a Lab mix female dog who is accepting and particularly likes smaller sized dogs in the home, often playing with them. We do have multiple levels and lots of closed off spaces are available as needed.

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: I’ve been caring for pets for over 15 years, from playful puppies to senior dogs needing extra support ☀️ I’ve also fostered cats and dogs with anxiety and trauma, gaining experience supporting animals with confidence and building trust. For the past 10 years, I’ve worked in the community as an intervention worker, developing skills like attentiveness, adaptability, and compassion — all of which I bring to the pets in my care. I have completed professional trainings through Canine Foundations, on canine communication, separation anxiety, resource guarding, and territorial behaviour. I am also beginning my certification in Animal Assisted Therapy in September which I’m super excited about! Whether it’s walks, playtime, or keeping routines consistent, I provide reliable, experienced, and loving care for every furry guest 🐱 🐶 🐰 KAYLAT65218, https://www.rover.com/sit/kaylat65218 to get 20$ off your first stay ! I have a flexible schedule, which means I can give your pets plenty of time, attention, and consistency throughout the day. I’m able to adapt to what your pet needs to feel comfortable and cared for 🥰 I welcome pets into my 5.5 apartment with a fenced backyard in a quiet neighborhood. I keep the environment calm and safe, making sure each pet gets the care, attention, and routine they need to settle in and feel at home while you’re away.

About: Ever since I was little, we've had pets in our home. From small dogs to large rescues. Cats too. I've dog-sat for many people around me, and now I'm offering my humble services to you! I'm fortunate to set my own schedule, so my availability is broad and flexible. The only days I'm unavailable are Tuesday through Thursday evenings. It'll be a pleasure to hear from you I always prioritize the owners' requests. Then I adapt to the animal's personality as best I can! Keeping a close eye on the animal and providing them with a warm and enjoyable environment.

About: Les chiens ont toujours occupé une place importante dans ma vie. La seule raison pourquoi j'ai mis 1 année d'expérience c'est parce que je n'ai pas mon propre chien, cependant j'ai toujours aimé les chiens, étant plus jeune je m'occupais aussi des chiens de mes amis. Je suis une personne calme, responsable et à l'écoute des besoins de chaque animal. Je prendrai soin de votre compagnon comme s'il était le mien, en lui offrant de l'attention, des promenades adaptées, des jeux et beaucoup d'affection. Je comprends l'importance de la confiance lorsqu'on confie son animal, et je m'engage à vous donner des nouvelles et des photos pour que vous soyez rassuré pendant votre absence. Je suis en ce moment au chômage donc j'ai beaucoup de temps pour m'occuper des chiens. Je suis disponible en tout temps, sauf le matin de 9h, midi car je vais au gym J'ai toujours une énergie calme et positive. Je m'y connais bien en comportement canin alors je saurais m'occuper et calmer votre chien au besoin. Je m'en occuperai comme si c'était le mien

About: I have grown up around animals all my life and approach my care with warmth, patience, and affection. I currently have a rescue lab retriever mix (heavy on the mix) and grew up with cats. I believe we can learn so much from animals and deeply appreciate taking the time to get to know each personality. I'm detail oriented and a reliable communicator, approaching each new pet with compassion and curiosity. I am a contract worker in the performing arts and so my schedule is very flexible. Currently I am typically am available each day between the hours of 7am and 9pm. I value safety and emotional well-being above all and so sticking to their regular routine is my is priority. Because of my flexible schedule, I am able to adapt my routine with each of the pets I care for. I love playtime and cuddles and also understand that each pet has their boundaries and respect those always.

About: My parents call me Snow White unironically. If there is an animal nearby… that is where you will find me! I have always loved animals, especially dogs and cats. In my hometown, I was my neighbor’s first choice for pet sitting their fur babies when they were away (still am with my new neighbors, hehe). I raised an American Akita and he lived 14 long, happy years. I know my way around reactive dogs and I am very serious and careful about special instructions owners give me. From the puppy stage to the senior stage, I love and care for them and adapt to their needs. I am a very active person, I run and walk ~a lot. I’m getting a little bored of doing it alone, so it would be my absolute pleasure to take your best friend with me to go play outside. 🥰 FOR THE CAT OWNERS: your fur babies would be treated like the royalty they are. I’ve had cats my whole life (I have 2 right now) and they are my flesh and blood!!!! Don’t hesitate to contact me for more info!!! I’m working full time with a flexible schedule and a lot of free time. I already integrated physical activity in my daily life (been running for two years now) so it would be easy for me to incorporate pet care and dogwalking in my routine. :) I will follow all instructions about care in your home. Because of my two cats, I can’t welcome your pet into my home. But I will happily look after your cat(s), dog(s) and do any pet care activities like clearing out the litter box, feeding, walking, and I might add that I have a special talent for cutting cats nails 💅🏻

Celsina helped us with a last minute request which was very appreciated! She kept in touch through her visit and looked after Luna very well taking her on a walk, feeding her and securing her back on her crate. I’d be happy to recommend Celsina and to have her care for Luna again.

Lingjuan did a great job caring for my cats. She kept their litter box clean, made sure they always had water, and fed them as instructed. She also sent me daily updates, which gave me a peace of mind while I was away. I really appreciated that she spent quality time with my cats and made sure they were comfortable. I would definitely request her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring petsitter.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Laval

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Laval on Rover is $25.53 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

There are 1,777 sitters on Rover for Pet Sitting in Laval. About 85% of Laval 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.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or travelling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer poop breaks during a Laval stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover based on what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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 Laval 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.

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.

Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a veterinary professional or offer other resources to help.

If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means Rover Support will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 87% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
