About: I have worked in shelters so I have plenty of experience working with senior and disabled dogs. I'm very patient and enthusiastic. Dogs and I instantly click. I'm free at the moment so I have all day Monday to Thursday. I'm flexible so just tell me what you need and I'll take care of it. My apartment is too small to take care of other dogs at home and currently I only accept dog walking services. How does that sound?

About: I’ve had pets my entire life, and they’ve always been part of my heart and home. Right now, I share my days with three amazing cats, but I’ve cared for both cats and dogs since I was 12. From tiny kittens and energetic puppies to gentle senior pets, each one has taught me something about patience, kindness, and unconditional love. I think what sets me apart is how deeply I connect with animals — I truly see them as family. I take the time to learn their personalities, what comforts them, and what makes them happy. Whether it’s a cuddle, a long walk, or just sitting quietly beside them, I’m happiest when animals feel safe and loved in my care. Caring for animals has always been a natural part of my day. With three cats at home, my mornings and evenings usually start and end with feeding, playtime, and lots of cuddles. I love making time for pets, whether that means going for walks, checking in during the day, or just giving them extra love and attention. Spending time with animals is one of my favorite parts of the day, and I always make sure they get the care, comfort, and company they deserve. My schedule is quite consistent in the sense that I work from home 2 days a week and have weekends off which allow me to care for your pets during holidays, special events and even on short notice. When I care for pets, my goal is to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable, just like they would at home. I always take time to learn their routines, favorite toys, and little quirks so I can keep things familiar and stress-free. In my care, pets get plenty of attention, playtime, cuddles, and a calm space to relax. In a client’s home, I make sure to follow their usual feeding, walking, and care schedule, keeping everything tidy and consistent. Whether it’s brushing, giving treats, or just sitting quietly together, I treat every pet like they’re part of my own furry family.

About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. I have experience with horses, dogs of all sizes, cats of all ages and needs, and even rabbits. I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable caring for both young and senior pets. Whether it’s taking an energetic dog for a walk, caring for a puppy, or spending quality time with a cat, I treat every pet with patience, care, and affection. 🐾 I’m happy to accommodate different pet-care needs, whether you need a quick drop-in visit for your cat, a longer walk for your dog, or house sitting while you’re away. I’m flexible and happy to work with your schedule. Send me a message to discuss your needs, and we can arrange a routine that works well for both of us! I will ensure your dog/cat feels comfortable with me and get to know them prior for the best possible care during my visit or for their walks.

“Joseph and Maria took excellent care of our cat while we were away. She is an indoor-outdoor cat who doesn’t do well with big changes to her routine so having twice-daily drop ins to feed her and let her in and out was ideal. Joseph sent us lovely updates and pictures and took care of her with the love and affection she is used to. I would trust Joseph and Maria with any pet and will definitely be calling on them again! This was my first time using Rover and am really happy with the experience.”

Andrea looked after our cat Missy for three days. Missy doesn't greet strangers normally and won't let them pet her. In Andrea's case, it was different. When Andrea first met her, Missy allowed her to pet her. Andrea told us that she would come to the door to meet her. Andrea and Missy bonded. We strongly recommend Andrea as a cat sitter. Missy told us to engage Andrea's services again!

Shanna is reliable, great at communicating, and keeps our cat happy, healthy and balanced when we are away. Working with Shanna rather than relying on friends and family makes a big difference! Shanna patiently spends quality time with our cat every visit, so the cat isn’t nearly as lonely. Shanna will continue to be our go-to any time we travel. I highly recommend working with Shanna!

Grace was super keen, kind, and friendly. The dogs had only met her once before she did a solo drop in to feed and walk the dogs while we were out of town for the day. We have a 14 yr old little guy that can’t walk far but she happily carried him in the carrier while walking our younger Wheaton. We are very happy w grace and will definitely be booking with her again! Thanks for treating our dogs as your own, Grace ❤️

Samantha did a really outstanding job taking excellent, daily care of my cat while I was away for almost three weeks. She is a fantastic cat-sitter and I couldn't recommend her enough to anyone who wants their cat to be cared for, played with and taken care of. I really appreciated that Samantha arranged for an initial 'meet and greet' with me and my cat before I departed and it really helped to put me at ease for the entire trip. She was very easy and professional to work with and very flexible arranging dates and times for the visits. Samantha really loves and cares about cats and judging by the many photos Samantha provided in her daily reports, my (usually curmudgeonly) cat really seemed to take a shine to Samantha, undoubtably due to the time and attention she provided my cat with every visit. She was always consistent and thorough with the report cards, and always communicated promptly with any additional questions or issues she encountered during my absence. I really felt that my cat was being cared for by a very safe pair of hands! I'm so relieved and glad that I found Samantha as a cat-sitter and she will absolutely be my go-to person for cat-sitting in the future!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - le Plateau

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in le Plateau is $26 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $39 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 1,477 sitters on Rover for Pet Sitting in le Plateau. About 83% of le Plateau 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 le Plateau 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:

  • 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 92% 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.
