“Marilyn was really responsible gentleman and communicated perfectly. If you are looking for a sitter but it's hard for you to find someone you can trust she is the perfect person for it. From now on she would be my go to sitter!”
“We had such a great experience with Maurane. She took great care of our cat and kept us updated and sent us pictures, which we really appreciated. Everything went smoothly and our kitty was happy—highly recommend and will book again!”
About: (I speak French and english) Hi! I’ve been surrounded by animals since childhood, and caring for them has always been a natural and important part of my life. I currently have three cats who mean the world to me, so I truly understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your furry family members. I have recently completed my AEP in Animal Care and have been working in a veterinary clinic, where I continue to gain valuable hands-on experience caring for animals. These experiences have helped me develop a strong understanding of animal behavior, health, and the importance of providing calm, patient, and compassionate care. I’m especially experienced with cats, but I’m also very comfortable caring for dogs. I previously worked in a pet shop for two years, where I was responsible for daily animal care and provided services such as nail trimming. Through my experience, I’ve learned how to approach animals calmly and confidently, read their body language, and adapt to each pet’s individual personality and needs. Whether your pet is playful, shy, energetic, anxious, or simply needs a little extra patience and attention, I’ll always do my best to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I take pet care very seriously and will treat your pets with the same care and attention I give my own. I would love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family member! I’m right now working part time but might take this as my primary job. I want to acquire more experience and see how this can be better for me for the future. I’m a calm and patient person who makes pets feel safe and comfortable. I respect their boundaries, pay close attention to their body language, and never force interactions. I’ll take great care of your pets and treat them like my own. 🐾
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: J'adore énormément les animaux (petits, gros, à poils, à plumes et à écailles) et j'en possède depuis plus de 17 ans. J'ai deux chats présentement à la maison, j'ai habité pendant 2 ans avec un gros chien (Zoé labrador-husky), j'ai déja eu un petit chien (Miko pomeranien) pendant 6 mois en famille d'acceuil et ma famille possède 3 chiens (Lucille labrador, Gustave berger australien et Milo doodle). J'aime beaucoup être à l'extérieur et prendre des marches même en hiver alors pourquoi ne pas combiner ces deux intérêts pour rendre service et faire le bonheur de tous. J'aime être en leur compagnie et en prendre grand soin. Je suis une personne respectueuse et soucieuse de suivre les recommandations spécifiques à chaque animal. Je suis celle qu'on appelle lorsque mon entourage à besoin de faire garder leurs chats, leurs chiens ou même leur hamster! Merci de me faire confiance! J'ai un horaire de travail flexible et je travail sur la route ce qui me permet de me libérer en matinée, au dîner, en fin de journée ou en soirée. Je suis aussi disponible la plupart des fins de semaine! Je suis très à l'aise de venir visiter vos animaux à votre domicile car c'est ce que je fais au travail (interventions à domicile avec des enfants).
About: Boutique home boarding for only 1–2 dogs at a time, so your pup receives the personalized care, attention, and love they deserve. I also offer a unique Wedding Dog Attendant service for couples who want their four-legged family member to be part of their special day. Hi! I'm Andrea—a lifelong animal lover originally from a small town in Costa Rica, where I grew up surrounded by dogs, cats, horses, cows, pigs, goats, rabbits, and parrots. Caring for animals has always been a part of who I am, and after more than 30 years of experience with pets of all kinds, I truly understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. My goal is to make your dog feel like they're on their own vacation while you're away. I follow their regular routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and plenty of cuddles. Because I only care for 1–2 dogs at a time, your pup will receive lots of individual attention in a calm, loving home—not a crowded boarding facility. Communication is important to me, so you'll receive regular photo and video updates throughout your dog's stay, giving you peace of mind while you're away. Whether your dog is staying with me for a weekend getaway, a longer vacation, or needs a trusted companion to accompany them on your wedding day, I'll treat them like one of my own. I can't wait to welcome your furry family member into my home! 🐾 My schedule during the week is tailor according to you and your pup. Please reach out and I will make sure to help you as much as possible. Your dog's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I exclusively offer boarding in my home, where your pup will enjoy a calm, loving, and secure environment with plenty of personalized attention. I keep my home clean, smoke-free, and pet-friendly, and I only board 1–2 dogs at a time so each guest receives the care, attention, and affection they deserve. I follow your dog's usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and lots of cuddles to help them feel comfortable and at home. I know how important it is to stay connected while you're away, so I'll send regular photo and video updates, along with messages about how your pup is doing, giving you complete peace of mind throughout their stay. ✨ Wedding Dog Attendant Service: I also offer a special service for couples who want their dog to be part of their wedding day. I can safely transport, supervise, and care for your dog throughout the event so they can be included in your special moments while you enjoy the celebration stress-free. This premium service is available at a separate rate. I treat every dog as if they were my own, providing a safe, loving, and stress-free experience from the moment they arrive until it's time to go home.
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
About: (French and Russian will follow) I offer playful, relaxed dog walking for your much-loved pets. I also provide drop-in visits and house-sitting services for dogs, cats, and all other animals! 🐾🐶🐈🐰🦔🐁🪶🫧 Growing up, my family had several different breeds of dogs, cats and even a parrot. So, I understand that every pet has a unique personality. They may be shy, independent, playful, or cuddly, and so I approach each one with patience and genuine care. I’m very observant of their moods, which gives me the ability to prioritize their comfort and needs. I understand the importance of maintaining a consistent routine, meeting feeding and grooming needs. My goal is for your furry family members to feel relaxed and safe while they are waiting for your return. ❤️ —— Je propose des promenades ludiques et détendues pour vos chers compagnons à quatre pattes. Je propose également des visites à domicile et des services de garde pour chiens, chats et tous les autres animaux ! 🐾🐶🐈🐰🦔🐁🪶🫧 Ayant grandi entourée de plusieurs races de chiens, de chats et même d'un perroquet, je sais que chaque animal a sa propre personnalité. Qu'ils soient timides, indépendants, joueurs ou câlins, je les aborde avec patience et bienveillance. Attentive à leurs humeurs, je peux veiller à leur confort et à leurs besoins. Je comprends l'importance d'une routine régulière et de l'entretien de leur alimentation et de leur toilettage. Mon objectif est que vos compagnons à quatre pattes se sentent détendus et en sécurité en attendant votre retour. ❤️ —— Я предлагаю игривые и спокойные прогулки с вашими любимыми питомцами. Также предоставляю услуги по присмотру за собаками, кошками и другими животными на дому! 🐾🐶🐈🐰🦔🐁🪶🫧 В детстве у моей семьи было несколько разных пород собак, кошек и даже попугай. Поэтому я понимаю, что у каждого питомца уникальный характер. Они могут быть застенчивыми, независимыми, игривыми или ласковыми, поэтому я отношусь к каждому с терпением и искренней заботой. Я очень внимательно наблюдаю за их настроением, что позволяет мне уделять первостепенное внимание их комфорту и потребностям. Я понимаю важность поддержания постоянного режима, удовлетворения потребностей в кормлении и уходе. Моя цель — чтобы ваши пушистые члены семьи чувствовали себя расслабленно и безопасно, пока ждут вашего возвращения. ❤️ On weekdays, my whole pet care routine is built around my day shift, which doesn't stop me from dropping by to take care of your furry babies early in the morning, before or after work. I'm more flexible on the weekends and will structure my schedule around your pets' routine. I will ensure that your pets feel relaxed, well-fed, and happy while I care for them. I will carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, and medication routines. Additionally, I will provide you with regular photo updates of your pets.
“Laura stepped in last minute and really saved my bacon. She was exceedingly kind and communicative throughout the process leading up to the visit and during the visit itself. I couldn't have asked for more :)”
“The best pet sitter I’ve ever had. My pups loved him and the pictures and videos he sent were so nice! My dogs looked so happy. I was nervous about using rover but after my experience with Iván I recommend it to everyone !!! Thank you ivan!!!”
“I could not have asked for a better cat sitter for Tiggy Stardust and Disco Pickles while I traveled over the holiday. From the moment I met Claude, it was clear how thoughtful, attentive, and genuinely loving she was. Claude took the time to learn each cat’s personality (and quirks!), sent regular updates and photos, and a phone call when unsure- and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. Tiggy and Disco were happy, and clearly well cared for — routines followed with care, and both cats getting plenty of affection. It’s rare to find someone you trust so fully with your pets, and I absolutely did here. Highly recommend — I will 100% book again. 🐾✨”
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 💅🏻
About: Je m’occupe des chiens depuis que j’ai environ 10 ans. Les amis, les voisins et les membres de ma famille me font confiance pour promener, nourrir et surveiller leurs animaux lorsqu’ils sont absents. J’ai aussi de l’expérience avec les petits animaux, puisque j’ai un lapin. Je suis une personne patiente, responsable et attentionnée, et je prends toujours le temps de m’adapter aux besoins de chaque animal. Mon objectif est que votre compagnon se sente en sécurité et bien entouré pendant votre absence. 🐾 Je travaille et j’étudie, mais j’organise bien mon horaire afin d’être disponible pour les animaux dont je m’occupe. Je peux effectuer des visites, des promenades et des gardes selon mes disponibilités. Je suis fiable et je prends toujours le temps nécessaire pour assurer le bien-être de votre compagnon. Lorsque je m’occupe d’un animal, je respecte toujours sa routine et les consignes du propriétaire. Je m’assure qu’il ait de l’eau, de la nourriture, de l’attention et un environnement sécuritaire. Je suis une personne responsable, calme et attentive aux besoins de chaque animal afin qu’il se sente en confiance pendant votre absence.
“Anna was perfectly punctual, attentive and considerate with her care of my cat, Ashes. She always kept me up to date, provided pictures and was quick to reach out with any questions or concerns. Your pets and your home will be safe in her hands, plain and simple.”
About: Plusieurs années d’expérience en promenade de chiens auprès de la SPCA m’ont permis de développer une grande aisance avec des chiens aux tempéraments variés. Cette expérience a renforcé mon approche douce, attentive et respectueuse du rythme de chaque animal. Fiable et à l’écoute, je porte une attention particulière au langage canin afin d’offrir des sorties sécuritaires, stimulantes et adaptées aux besoins de chaque compagnon. Que ce soit pour une promenade énergique ou plus tranquille, j’assure une présence constante, bienveillante et rassurante. Je suis présentement en réorientation de carrière et j'intègrerai le programme d'acupuncture à compter d'août 2026. Mes horaires sont donc flexibles et je suis grandement disponible. À mon domicile comme chez les propriétaires, j’accorde une grande importance à respecter la routine et les besoins spécifiques de chaque animal. Je prends le temps de créer un lien de confiance en m’adaptant à son rythme, son niveau d’énergie et son tempérament. Je veille à tous les aspects de son bien-être : repas, eau fraîche, propreté, jeux, stimulation et moments de calme. Pour les chiens, j’assure des promenades sécuritaires et adaptées. Pour les chats, je privilégie une approche douce et respectueuse, en laissant toujours l’animal venir à moi. Je porte aussi une attention particulière à leur langage et à leurs signaux afin d’assurer leur confort et leur sécurité en tout temps. Mon objectif est que chaque animal se sente en confiance, apaisé et bien entouré, même en l’absence de sa personne.
“Florence was so good with Pancho! She asked questions about his routine, gave me really detailed updates after she left. She started to develop a nice relationship with him after just a few visits. Will definately keep contacting her for Pancho’s visits and walks. I know he is in great hands!”
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.
“Laura a effectué des visites pour mon chat pendant quelques jours. Tout s'est bien passé, j'ai reçu des nouvelles régulièrement et elle a réussi à apprivoiser mon chat qui est pourtant très timide. Je recommande les services de Laura !”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Mont-Royal
Samuel was a lifesaver! 🥹 He came over on very short notice when I had a last-minute outing, and it was his first time taking care of my cat. He followed all my instructions perfectly, kept him well-fed and entertained, and took such good care of him. I’m so grateful and would absolutely recommend him!
Charlène a vraiment bien pris soin de nos plumeux! Elle n’avait pas peur de leurs morsures et a su relever le défi de les rentrer dans leurs cages après leurs exercices! Elle a un tempérament calme et communique clairement. Nous la recommandons, mon conjoint et moi.
Charlotte a visité notre chat durant 1 semaine à domicile. Elle a été très professionnelle et rassurante. Nous avons reçu des nouvelles et des photos à tous les jours. Il est évident que Charlotte adore les animaux ! Je recommande fortement ses services !
Pascal was amazing with Regine, our elderly cat, while we were out of town for the weekend. Two visits, meds given on time, lots playtime too - and great photo updates after each visit made our know she was having fun and in great hands. Communicating and booking through Rover with Pascal was super easy. They also held onto our house key as a safety net for Regine - should we have not made it back when planned, they were ready to go check on her again. Such a thoughtful touch. We found Pascal through friends’ recommendation and now totally get why. We’ll definitely be booking Pascal again!
Lucy was great doing drop-ins for my shy but energetic kitty! She was super punctual, very responsive with messages, and also let me know about a little accident my cat had right away, instead of waiting til the Rover card, which I appreciated. Everything went smoothly so I felt relaxed on my trip. Thanks Lucy!
Magalie s'est occupée de garder notre chat adoré pendant 3 semaines à notre domicile, deux fois par jour. Magalie est une formidable gardienne! Elle lui a administré son traitement médical et a été très affectueuse avec lui. À notre retour, nous avons retrouvé notre chat très serein, comme si nous n'étions jamais parti!. Magalie a communiqué avec nous tous les jours avec des nouvelles et des photos. La communication avec elle est très agréable et facile. Magalie est une personne de confiance et nous sommes très heureux de l'avoir trouvée! Je la recommande à 100%.
Sarah was amazing!! So thoughtful and kind, she really went above and beyond to make sure she knew every detail about my cat and make her feel comfortable while I was away. Not only was she a major help stepping in last minute, but she provided thoughtful updates and videos so I knew my girl was in great hands the whole time and never had to worry. Cannot recommend Sarah enough!!
Karine was absolutely wonderful with both of my cats. One of them is very shy, and she approached him with patience and gentleness. My other cat is demanding and requires medication twice a day, and she handled his routine with total confidence and care. Karine kept me updated throughout my trip with photos and videos and I felt my cats and home are in good hands. I couldn’t ask for a more responsible, caring cat sitter.
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.
