“I am so pleased with the care my cat, Kiwi, received from Rachael☺️. She provided not only attentive care but also lots of playtime and affection. It’s evident that Kiwi enjoyed his time with her, and he stayed healthy and happy throughout. I highly recommend Rachael for anyone looking for a reliable and caring cat sitter!”
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.
About: J’adore les animaux, et particulièrement les chiens, peu importe leur race ou leur taille! J’ai eu plusieurs chiens au cours de ma vie et, depuis quelques années, je suis devenue un peu la référence en gardiennage de chiens dans mon entourage. 😄 J’adore prendre soin d’eux, jouer avec eux, les promener et leur donner toute l’attention dont ils ont besoin. Je suis aussi une grande coureuse 🏃♀️, alors si votre chien aime courir et que ça correspond à ses capacités, je serai très heureuse de l’emmener avec moi pour une petite course! Je peux également garder des chats 🐱, que ce soit pour une visite à domicile, leur donner de l’attention, jouer avec eux ou simplement m’assurer qu’ils ne manquent de rien pendant votre absence. Que ce soit pour une promenade, une journée de daycare, une soirée, une fin de semaine ou simplement passer voir votre compagnon à la maison, je suis flexible et je peux m’adapter à vos besoins et à la routine de votre animal. Je travaille de la maison tous les jours, ce qui me permet d’être assez flexible et disponible pour m’adapter à vos besoins et à la routine de votre animal. Pour les promenades, je peux facilement me libérer pendant la journée pour aller prendre l’air avec votre chien. 🐕 Je peux aussi travailler directement de chez vous au besoin, si votre animal est plus à l’aise dans son environnement ou si vous préférez qu’il ne soit pas laissé seul. Pour les séjours de plus longue durée, votre compagnon aura donc beaucoup de présence et de compagnie! Je pourrai continuer à travailler à distance tout en m’occupant de lui, en respectant ses habitudes, ses promenades et ses besoins. 🐾 L’idée est vraiment de trouver une formule qui fonctionne autant pour vous que pour votre animal! Que ce soit chez moi ou chez vous, je m’assure que l’environnement est sécuritaire et adapté à votre animal. Je porte une attention particulière aux portes, fenêtres, balcons et objets qui pourraient être dangereux ou facilement accessibles. Je respecte aussi vos consignes et les habitudes de votre animal afin qu’il puisse être confortable, bien encadré et en sécurité pendant toute la durée de son séjour.
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: 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'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).
“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. 🐾✨”
“Iván was great! I was scared of going out of town and leaving my cat alone due to her health condition, but Iván took great care of her. He was quick to reply to messages and sent regular updates (text + photos), which made me feel at ease while away. Iván also handled a health episode related to my cat's health condition in a really effective and caring way, something that I'm very grateful for. If you are looking for someone to take good care of your pet, I definitely recommend Iván!”
“Amazing pet sitter! Clémentine was very attentive and knowledgeable, even with my somewhat uncommon pet lizard! I would highly recommend her and hope to book her again in the future!”
“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: 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: 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.
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
“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: I only accept one family per appointment, and up to 4 cats being hosted at my house. I will keep them separated from my cats, so there is no stress between them. I have cared for severely ill cats so I can administer oral medication with no problem, clip their nails, play with them, and, of course, clean their litter boxes. I have had multiple cats since 2020, I'm very confident in taking care of them, reading their body language and understanding their boundaries. Currently I have 2 cats that are neutered, and super friendly (socialized with lots of humans and other cats). I can take care of cats in the evening and early morning, up to 2 vists per day. If you have cats and dogs it is okay too, I can walk your dogs on the visit and do all the other necessary things. When hosting cats at my house I will keep them separated from my own, and I work from home 95% of the time, so I can give them medication in the right frequency (if need be). For cats, I can have them at my place, or do drop-in visits. I'm very comfortable with giving medication, clipping their nails, brushing, and understanding their basic needs by their behaviour. If the cats are to be at my home, they will be in different room than my cats, so there is no territorial stress. I only take one family per appointment, so you do not need to worry about your cats being in my home with some other people's cats, all to minimize the stress level. For dogs I can do drop-in visits and walk them, sending photos and videos to the owners everytime. I only accept one family per appointment, so if I'm dog walking, it will be just from one household at a time.
About: EN I am an animal lover to boot! In 2024, I had the privilege to start volunteering walking dogs for the elderly as a way to help seniors keep their companions. It was wonderful and by 2025, I began working as a dog walker. I am particularly fond of senior dogs. 75% of my experience has been with dogs over the age of ten. I will treat your old man/lady with the love and care I’d want for my own. Message me, let’s chat and see how I can help you! And don’t worry if I seem too far away, I’m happy to travel anywhere within the island Please note that if your pet requires specialized treatment (24/7 company, timed medications, etc), rates will be adjusted accordingly. Thank you! FR Je suis un amoureux des animaux en plus ! En 2024, j’ai eu le privilège de commencer à faire du bénévolat pour promener des chiens pour les personnes âgées afin d’aider les seniors à garder leurs compagnons. C’était merveilleux et en 2025, j’ai commencé à travailler comme promeneur de chiens. J’aime particulièrement les chiens âgés. 75% de mon expérience a été avec des chiens âgés de plus de dix ans. Je traiterai votre vieil homme/dame avec l’amour et le soin que je voudrais pour moi-même. Envoie-moi un message, discutons et voyons comment je peux t’aider ! Et ne t’inquiète pas si je semble trop loin, je suis heureux de voyager n’importe où dans l’île.

EN I offer house sitting, so I am fully available during the week and weekends. My schedule is very flexible. Let’s chat!

Mon emploi du temps est très flexible. Discutons ! Je peux aussi proposer une échelle mobile, donc si quelque chose dépasse votre budget, veuillez me contacter, j’aimerais vous aider :) EN I don’t offer boarding as unfortunately my space doesn’t allow pets, but I am happy to house sit for you or just drop in whenever necessary. I offer basic care such as home cleaning, feeding, litter cleaning, walks, brushing, and companionship, but I am happy to administer medication as well. FR Je n’offre pas de pension car malheureusement mon espace ne permet pas les animaux de compagnie, mais je suis heureux de garder la maison pour vous ou simplement de passer quand c’est nécessaire. Je propose des soins de base tels que le nettoyage de la maison, l’alimentation, le nettoyage de la litière, les promenades, le brossage et la compagnie, mais je suis également heureux d’administrer des médicaments.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Mont-Royal
I highly recommend Fatemeh! She did a fantastic job sitting my cat. I was worried because he normally hides from guests, but he felt so comfortable around her and was very sweet. She is responsible, professional, and properly took care of everything. Thank you, Fatemeh!
Magalie est une formidable gardienne. Pour notre chat elle a été parfaite, douce et attentionnée. Elle lui a fait son brossage, couper ses ongles et toutes les autres taches avec soin. Nous avions des photos et vidéos à chaque visite. Une expérience en pleine confiance. Nous la recommandons vivement.
Alessia est une excellente cat sitter. Elle a su créer un lien avec mon chat, pourtant un peu timide et anxieux, presque immédiatement, en respectant son rythme et ses habitudes et en lui accordant toute l'attention dont il avait besoin. En plus, la communication avec Alessia est simple et agréable. Je la recommande sans hésiter!
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.
Jeanne took exceptional care of Citra while we were away for two weeks. She was incredibly attentive, caring, and reliable, and consistently went above and beyond to ensure Citra’s wellbeing and comfort. It gave us great peace of mind knowing Citra was in such capable hands and we couldn’t be more grateful. We highly recommend Jeanne to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate person.
Brisa did an amazing job with my 2 cats while I was traveling for a month, providing daily check-ins and even going out of her way to buy them treats when they ran out. She took care of them as if they were her own. My cats are usually very nervous around new people, but they warmed up to her very quickly!
Madeleine was an incredible petsitter and person to us! Ponctualité, proactive, deeply caring for the well being of my little king. I can only recommend her and most definitely rebook without thinking twice. She's very patient and flexible as well. Fast replies and great communication in general. Thank you for everything!!
Mel a été formidable et bien pris soin de notre chat. Elle posait de bonnes questions pour s’assurer de donner les meilleurs soins possibles. Elle donnait des comptes rendus détaillés avec des photos. Elle a portée une attention supplémentaire car il y a eu une période de canicule et s’est assuré que mon chat ait tout ce qu’il fallait pour rester confortable et en santé. Je recommande fortement et continuerai de faire affaire avec Mel :)
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! ❤️

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Mont-Royal on Rover is $23.5 per visit (as of August 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 1,769 sitters on Rover for Pet Sitting in Mont-Royal. About 85% 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:
- 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.
