“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 :)”
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.
“Anna took great care of our two bengals. We felt a sense of relief knowing they were being cared for by Anna who was compassionate, kind and trustworthy. Next time we need somebody to look after our cats while we are away we will definitely want Anna to be here! We enjoyed the updates and photos!!”
“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: J'ai eu l'occasion, dès mon plus jeune âge, de m'occuper de mes propres chiens et mon chat & ainsi que de ceux d'amis et de voisins, en assurant les promenades, les repas, les jeux et les soins quotidiens. Je suis une personne fiable, attentive et patiente, qui accorde une énorme importance au bien-être, au confort et à la sécurité des animaux dont je m'occupe. Malgré mes études et mon emploi à temps partiel, j'organise mon emploi du temps avec efficacité. Je suis disponible pour des marches et des visites selon les besoins des propriétaires, tout en veillant à offrir des soins de qualité et une attention personnalisée à chaque animal🐾. Lors de visites, je m'assurerais, avec beaucoup d’attention, de patience et de bienveillance, de respecter leur routine habituelle (repas, promenades, jeux, moments de repos ou autre) afin qu’ils se sentent biens et confortable.
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: J’ai toujours vécu avec des animaux et m’en suis occupée au quotidien, notamment avec mon propre chien, un berger allemand. J’ai l’habitude de comprendre leurs besoins, leur énergie et leur comportement. Je propose des promenades calmes, sécuritaires et adaptées à chaque chien.

Je suis une personne fiable, attentive et respectueuse, et je comprends l’importance de laisser son animal à quelqu’un de confiance.
About: I have experience with a wide variety of animals, I am currently raising a kitten and grew up all my life with dogs! I have experience pet sitting and walking dogs, and you can be reassured that your animals will be my #1 priority when I am taking care of them. My work (art) is freelance, so I am able to make my own hours and fit them to my schedule. This means I can commit to a reoccurring schedule as needed. I am extremely responsible and discreet, so you can relax knowing that your pet will be safely and attentively cared for. I will always keep you in the loop with everything that happens, and double check all procedures or instructions given to me.
“Hanieh was an excellent cat sitter. She took great care of Luna, playing with her and giving her a lot of affection. She clearly loves the babies. And she even stayed longer than expected on a few days.”
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.
About: I have two Labradoodles, Angie and Elliot, who I’ve loved and cared for over the past 14 years. They’re truly my babies. I treat them like my children with long walks, lots of playtime, regular baths, and constant attention. I’m very experienced and have so much extra love to give your pup 🐾💛 I’m currently fully available for the next two months, with plenty of time to dedicate. Open weekdays and weekends, offering flexible scheduling to fit your dog’s needs 🐾 I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment for every pet. I follow routines closely, provide attentive care, and ensure they feel secure at home or mine. I treat every dog with patience, love, and constant supervision. 🐾
About: Starting off with a Briard when I was 5, my family quickly introduced me to a household including pets to take care of. While I was too young/small to walk our Briard at the time alone, I developed a strong connection to pets. I helped out friends of our family and took care of their pets and worked on dog fairs. Recently, I had the opportunity to go dog sledding with a pack of wonderful Huskies. Over the years I took care of plenty of cats whenever needed. But since my family included my mother as a veterinarian, my uncle as a farrier and my cousin who’s an equestrian trainer, we always had all kinds of animals and pets around - which I enjoyed to the fullest! I am a german living in Montreal, and I love animals and to take care of them. I am working from home, so I can always be there for your pet. To make this the best environment for your pets needs, I am happy to get active and, if needed and desired, take your pets on frequent walks. I condemn any form of physical or emotional violence against animals. For me, taking care of animals is making sure they are safe and feeling well (also if that means leaving them alone ;-)). At my apartment, there is no other pets, or kids. I don’t have a garden, but the apartment is rather big and bright. I live close to greenery and pedestrian areas, which would be my first choice for walking your pet.
About: Ce qui me distingue, c'est mon attention personnalisée et mon amour sincère des animaux. Chaque chien reçoit beaucoup d'affection, de supervision et d'exercice selon ses besoins. Je respecte rigoureusement les consignes des propriétaires, je peux administrer des médicaments simples si nécessaire et je veille à ce que chaque compagnon se sente en sécurité, détendu et aimé pendant votre absence Les services pour animaux de compagnie font naturellement partie de ma routine. Chaque semaine, j'organise mon horaire en fonction des promenades, des visites à domicile et des besoins spécifiques des animaux dont je m'occupe. J'aime intégrer ces moments à mon quotidien, car ils me permettent de créer un lien avec les animaux tout en offrant aux propriétaires la tranquillité d'esprit de savoir que leur compagnon est entre bonnes mains. Cela varie selon les besoins de chaque animal et le service demandé. À mon domicile, je veille à leur offrir un environnement sécuritaire, confortable et stimulant, avec des promenades, des périodes de jeu, des repas selon leurs habitudes et beaucoup d'attention. Chez les propriétaires, je respecte la routine établie pour l'animal en m'assurant qu'il reçoit ses repas, ses promenades, ses médicaments au besoin, ainsi que de la compagnie et des soins adaptés. Mon objectif est de maintenir leurs habitudes afin de réduire leur stress et d'assurer leur bien-être

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Mont-Royal
I am so incredibly happy we found Jane! She is absolutely amazing with Opal, and I truly appreciate how communicative she is and how accommodating she was with our last-minute booking. Opal absolutely LOVES her and already misses her! I definitely recommend Jane 100% she’s just awesome. Thank you so much! ❤️
Andrea did several drop-in visits and provided great communication throughout the booking. I could tell my cat was in great hands, and I really appreciated her trying to help fix my Furbo when it stopped throwing treats. I came home to a happy cat and a perfectly kept home.
C’était la première fois que je faisais appel à un petsitter et mon expérience a été à ravir! Sarah est très attentionnée, fiable et professionnelle. Elle donne des nouvelles régulièrement, prends photos/vidéos et fais des comptes rendus sans même qu’on ait à lui demander. Je la recommande sans hésitation et je ferai de nouveau appel à ses services. Merci encore Sarah !
This was the second time that Megan conducted daily check-ins for one of my cats. On both occasions she was very communicative and great about sharing detailed updates from her visits. She's very trustworthy and I wouldn't hesitate to have her come in for visitations again in the future.
Outstandingly amazing cat sitter. On top of her being a kind and compassionate person, she treated my cat with the utmost respect and care. She is highly attentive to details and caught on to small changes in my cat's walk and her behaviour that lead us to recognize she was sick. She took extra time to visit my cat outside her normal hours, gave her her meds each day and dealt with vet visits as we were away. Without her my cat would have suffered. Instead she was loved and cared for by someone so wonderful. I could not recommend Chanel more.
We’ve now trusted ShanShan twice to take care of our cat Athena while we were away, and she’s been absolutely wonderful each time. She’s incredibly reliable and great with follow-ups, and she sends the cutest photos and updates, which is so reassuring. We have a very shy cat and honestly expected her to hide the whole time—but thanks to ShanShan, we could see that Athena was not only coming out, but being petted, loved, and well cared for. It gave us real peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. I can confidently say we’ve found our go-to person for Athena. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to recommend ShanShan to anyone looking for someone caring and trustworthy to look after their pet.
Laura looked after my 2 cats for 2 weeks, one of whom is elderly and needs special care (including insulin injections). Laura took excellent care of them, she is punctual, communicative and friendly. I wouldn't think twice about booking her again! Thank you Laura!
Lingjuan took such a good care of my Victor again 😍 She took care of him like her own and made sure that everything want smoothly while I was gone for 3 days. Victor loved when she passed by to play with him, brush him or simply give him all the love ❤️ All the instructions that I gave for my trip were followed thoroughly and her updates were the highlight of my day 🥹 Thank you for everthing !!
We had a great experience with Jeanne. She was very communicative and accommodating throughout the entire time we were away. We especially appreciated the regular updates and photos of Citra, which gave us peace of mind. Best of all, we came home to a happy, well-cared-for cat. We wouldn’t hesitate to book again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Mont-Royal on Rover is $23 per visit (as of July 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 1,807 sitters on Rover for Pet Sitting in Mont-Royal. About 84% 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.
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 Mont-Royal 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 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!
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:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 87% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
