About: Hi there! I’m Anahita Poorsaeed, a cat lover based in Montreal. I offer drop-in visits for cats only, helping care for your furry friend while you’re away or busy. With years of experience around cats, I understand their unique personalities and needs. Whether your kitty is playful, shy, or just prefers quiet companionship, I’m here to make sure they’re well cared for. During each visit, I take care of feeding, refreshing water, cleaning the litter box, and spending time with your cat—whether that means playtime, cuddles, or simply respectful space. I’m also comfortable giving medication if needed. I always send updates and photos after every visit so you can feel confident and relaxed while you’re away. I’d love to meet you and your cat and make sure they feel safe and loved in your absence. Looking forward to connecting! 🐱 Pet care fits very well into my routine, as I’m available during weekday evenings and on Saturdays. I plan my schedule carefully so I have enough time for calm, focused visits where I can give each cat the care and attention they need. I enjoy including pet care as a peaceful and meaningful part of my day. Since I only offer drop-in visits for cats, I make sure each visit is relaxed, on time, and tailored to the cat’s comfort. I’m reliable, consistent, and happy to work with pet parents to fit their needs I care for cats in their own home, where they feel most safe and comfortable. During each drop-in visit, I make sure your cat has fresh food and water, a clean litter box, and the attention they deserve—whether that means playtime, quiet company, or simply checking in from a respectful distance. I always follow any specific instructions provided by the owner and take note of each cat’s personality and preferences. I send updates and photos after every visit so you can feel connected and reassured while you’re away. My goal is to make each visit calm, respectful, and comforting for your cat
“Great one off walk with Maggie for a preliminary session for her and Laura to get to know each other, turned out someone else’s availability was better but would be confident to book Laura otherwise.”
“"I can't say enough wonderful things about Maurane! She is absolutely fantastic with my dog Joey, always going above and beyond to make sure he’s happy and well-cared for during each walk. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a caring and professional dog walker!"”
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: I regularly walked my neighbor’s dog for 3 years before becoming a foster home for a Mira Foundation dog for a year and a half, taking care of him entirely on my own. Unfortunately, my current lease does not allow pets, but I love animals dearly and would be happy to give your pet the loving care and attention they deserve. I have been living with a cat at my parents house for around 20 years. -- J’ai promené régulièrement le chien de ma voisine pendant 3 ans avant de devenir famille d’accueil pour un chien de la Fondation Mira pendant un an et demi, en m’occupant entièrement de lui moi-même. Malheureusement, mon bail actuel ne me permet pas d’avoir d’animaux, mais j’adore les animaux et je prendrai soin du vôtre avec beaucoup d’amour et d’attention. J'habitais avec un chat dans la maison de mes parents pendant environ 20 ans. As a university student with a fully open summer schedule, I have plenty of time to give your pet the attentive, loving care they deserve, and to care for your home as well if needed. -- Je suis une étudiante universitaire avec tout l’été de libre, donc beaucoup de temps pour offrir une présence attentionnée et remplie d’amour à votre animal de compagnie, ainsi qu’à votre maison si vous le souhaitez. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my priority. I provide attentive, loving care and make sure every pet feels safe, calm, and well cared for, whether in your home or during walks. Having cared for a Mira dog, I understand the importance of patience, routine, trust, and responsibility. I also never wear headphones while walking dogs so I can give them my full attention at all times, and I only walk one dog at a time to ensure safe, personalized care. -- La sécurité, le confort et le bonheur de votre animal seront toujours ma priorité. J’offre une présence attentive et bienveillante afin que chaque animal se sente en sécurité, calme et bien entouré, que ce soit à votre domicile ou pendant les promenades. Ayant été famille d’accueil pour un chien Mira, je comprends l’importance de la patience, de la routine, de la confiance et du sens des responsabilités. Je ne porte jamais d’écouteurs pendant les promenades afin d’accorder toute mon attention au chien, et je promène seulement un chien à la fois pour assurer une attention sécuritaire et personnalisée.
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.
“Vladyslava recently started walking our big, beautiful dog Maggie. She is doing a great job and I have no hesitation recommending her. Very nice, prompt, and responsible.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats which has made me learn how to walk them, take care of them, groom them and made them feel loved and spoiled. I am happy to do all these things for my pets and yours as well! I’m currently working part time and also a student which means I have many breaks during my day which I’m looking to fill up with quality time/walk with dogs and cats! I currently only have one cat, I fill her food and water bowl twice a day and take her on a walk in the morning and also before going to bed.
About: J’ai toujours aimé les animaux et j’ai plusieurs années d’expérience avec les chiens et les chats. Je suis à l’aise avec les promenades, les repas, les jeux et les soins du quotidien. Je suis une personne douce, attentive et fiable, et je prends le temps de m’adapter aux habitudes et à la personnalité de chaque animal. J’ai un horaire flexible qui me permet d’intégrer facilement les promenades et les visites dans ma routine. Je suis disponible en journée et je peux m’adapter aux besoins et aux habitudes de votre animal. Je prends toujours le temps nécessaire pour que chaque visite soit agréable et sans précipitation. La sécurité et le bien-être de votre animal sont ma priorité. Je respecte attentivement les consignes de chaque propriétaire ainsi que les habitudes et les besoins de l’animal. Je veille à créer un environnement calme, sécuritaire et rassurant, tout en vous donnant des nouvelles pendant la garde.
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: I’ve taken care of countless cats and some dogs. I’ve had 6 or so pets live with me over the years and I have a deep love for animals. I can go for walks, runs, or other type of pet care services I am fully available, as I am studying online and home for almost all of the day. With my allowed study breaks and time relaxing, this leaves essentially a flexible schedule all day to take care of animals. I care for pets with love and patience. I give lots of attention to pets in my home and make sure they are happy and well fed, with clean and fresh water and amenities 🐶🐈!
About: I have been dog walking and dog sitting since I was 15 and I have two dogs of my own as well. I love dogs so much and my spirit animal is definitely a dog because I also love walks and cheese. I am currently a student at Concordia University and I have classes Tuesdays and Thursdays so I am available for dog walking and dog sitting every other day but Tuesdays and Thursdays. I have brought my dog to dog trainers before and have learned the best ways to assert dominance and how to make sure my dogs are safe and happy. I also always try to learn the new and best ways to train dogs.
About: I've grown up around animals my whole life — German Shepherds, an English Staffy, and cats over the years. Right now I have a 10-month-old kitten of my own, so I know the energy (and mischief) young pets bring. I work from home, which means your pet is never left alone during the day. I'm in an apartment with a large grassy area and parks nearby for dog walks, and I'm fully set up for cats. My two kids (3 and 6) are gentle and great with animals. I work from home full-time, so pet care fits naturally into my day rather than around it. I'm here for feeding, walks, play, and check-ins throughout the day and evening, with flexibility on timing. Weekends are open too, and pets are never left alone for long stretches. In my home, pets stay in a calm apartment with a large grassy area and nearby parks for walks. I keep cats and dogs comfortable, watch feeding and litter or bathroom routines, and make sure everyone has their own space. Because I work from home, I can spot anything off early. In a client's home, I follow your routines closely and keep your space exactly as you left it.
About: Hi! I have many years of experience with dogs, cats and birds. Dogs: I have had two dogs in my childhood - a boxer and an Italian greyhound. I am comfortable with any size of dog and acclimated with different temperaments and energy levels. I have experience feeding, walking, playing with, grooming (brushing teeth, clipping nails, brushing), and bathing dogs. I have also administered chemo pills to a friend’s dog (golden retriever) over the course of two years. Cats: I have had 2 cats over the course of the last 8 years. I treat my animals with the highest form of care: brushing teeth daily, grooming weekly, litter box twice a day, yearly vet check-ups, and 10-15 minutes of active play a day. I have watched over friends’ dogs and cats many times and put in the same level of care every time. My passion for animals has stayed with me for life and I am eager to meet and take care of your pet! I am currently a PhD student and therefore have a lot of time and flexibility for walks and daytime visits. I am an early riser, so I am comfortable coming before 9am. I am comfortable with many forms of care for both cats and dogs. Walking, bathing, grooming (nails, fur, teeth), enrichment, feeding, and cleaning the litter box.
“Elizabeth was amazing with Leo. He was so excited to see her, clearly she takes such great care of him! Also sent some amazing photos and videos! Highly recommend her for any pet care needs.”
About: Ive had pets around me my whole life. Whether it be my own pets or my neighbours, I cannot get enough of them. I try to be around animals as much as possible. I also do horseback riding so I really love all animals. I have a lot of experience with puppies and do not scare easy! I work from home so I spend most week days on my couch with my laptop and would love the extra company! I have a dog park nearby that’s normally empty and would love to get the extra exercise. My neighbourhood is quite dog friendly so an aggressive dog may not be the best fit here I would always make sure your pet is comfortable in my home and that he/she trusts me. I would never want an uncomfortable environment for either of us, and would contact you right away if that was the case.

I can’t say enough good things about Fatemeh. She is incredibly reliable and is always there whenever I need her, even on short notice. She’s so kind, trustworthy, and absolutely amazing with my dog. It gives me such peace of mind knowing he’s in such good hands with her. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable and genuinely caring with their pets! ❤️
She was absolutely fantastic with my dog! From the moment they met, it was clear that she has a special gift with animals. She is kind, patient, and genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. My dog adored her and always came back happy and well cared for. She kept me updated and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog walker.
Emi a vraiment été super avec Duke. Elle est très sympathique et elle l’a très vite mis à l’aise alors que c’était la première fois qu’ils se rencontraient. La communication était très fluide et ouverte. J’ai reçu plein de photos et vidéos de leur balade. Je recommande vivement et je continuerai de faire appel à Emi pour promener mon Duke.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Mont-Royal is $27 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $36 per walk. On Rover, walkers 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 1,912 sitters on Rover for Dog Walking in Mont-Royal. About 83% of Mont-Royal 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.
Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in Mont-Royal. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighbourhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
<b>Tip:</b> Keep in mind that many cities in Canada require your dog walker to have a permit or licence for group walks.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Mont-Royal after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits, dog walking, and doggy day care. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find walkers in Mont-Royal with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.
Every walker 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.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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 Mont-Royal 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!
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 83% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 87% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
