“Heather was great with my cats. Even my shy cat came out to greet her! She was communicative, allowing me to enjoy my time away while knowing that my cats are in good hands.”
“Irmak was absolutely wonderful with both of our cats! She gave them so much care, love, attention, and, of course, plenty of treats. She was incredibly sweet, trustworthy, and gentle—not only with our cats, but with our home as well. She was especially capable and comfortable administering medication to our older cat, which gave us such peace of mind while we were away. At the same time, she did a fantastic job keeping up with our playful kitten’s energy and giving him plenty of attention and playtime. We felt completely comfortable having Irmak care for our cats and our home, and we came back to two very happy kitties. We would absolutely recommend her and will definitely be booking with her again! ❤️”
About: I’ve had cats since I was 7 and have over 20 years of experience caring for animals. I currently have two cats (ages 16 and 7), so I’m very comfortable with both senior and adult pet needs. I’ve also helped care for dogs through walking, feeding, and sitting for friends and family. I’m attentive, patient, and reliable, and I take time to understand each pet’s personality. Your pet will be cared for, happy, and relaxed while you’re away. I’m available every weekday after 12 PM and fully available on weekends. This allows me to offer flexible scheduling for walks, drop-in visits, or extended stays. I’m happy to accommodate your pet’s routine, whether that’s afternoon walks, evening care, or weekend coverage. I always aim to be reliable and responsive, and I can adjust my availability when needed to ensure your pet receives consistent, attentive care. I provide a calm, safe, and clean environment.I always follow the pet’s usual routine as closely as possible (feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions) to help them feel comfortable and secure. I keep everything tidy in clients' homes while giving pets plenty of attention, companionship, and care. I make sure they get enough exercise, enrichment, and affection, and I monitor their behavior closely to ensure they’re happy and healthy. I create a stress-free environment with lots of supervision, playtime, and rest. I’m especially attentive to each pet’s personality and needs, whether they’re energetic, shy, or senior. I also provide regular updates with photos so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is in good hands
“Raz did an amazing job talking care of my very stressed senior kitty. It was the first time she had been alone since we lost our other kitty. Raz sent pictures and messages daily to keep me up to date with what was happening. I 100% recommend her!”
“Amy took care of my cat, Potato, for 5 days and she was absolutely amazing. She was incredibly communicative the entire time, always keeping me updated with photos and little notes so I never had to worry. She’s very organized, reliable, and went above and beyond with everything she did. I came home to a happy, relaxed Potato and a clean, well-kept apartment, which says a lot about the care she puts into her work. I felt completely at ease knowing my cat was in such good hands. Highly recommend Amy to anyone looking for a responsible and genuinely caring sitter!”
“Rojina is the best! She won the heart of my very shy cat right away and was able to pet him every time she visited. She is super reliable, I got photos and a report at each visit so I didn’t have to worry about anything. I would hire her again for sure!”
About: I have many years of experience dealing with dogs & puppies - having had a couple of them myself. I treat dogs with love and care, always tailoring to each individual pup. I also have experience in dealing with reactive dogs and physical issues (tri-pods). I love spending time with dogs and making them feel happy and taken care of :) Just starting out on this journey - have always wanted to do this as I love spending time and playing with dogs … what better time to do this than now! I work full time but only in office Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday - I also live right next to my office so able to go home at lunch or at any time during the day! Other than that, home all the time! Lots of playing and cuddles! I live in a quiet neighbourhood, close to dog parks and green areas/parks. I can tailor to you and your dogs needs - whether your dog needs to be in a crate or not, special needs or requests, anything to make you and your furry friend comfortable!
“Yiran was fantastic with my cats! She was very mindful of their feeding schedule and was always punctual. She played with them a lot. It was great to see them get some exercise and entertainment. The next time I need a sitter I'll know who to contact. Thanks Yiran!”
“Karen made daily home visits to take care of Teddy, our cat, while we were away on holiday. She sent great updates and pictures with her Rover cards every day and took excellent care of Teddy. She brushed and played with him every day. It’s clear by the pictures that Teddy felt very comfortable with Karen. We will definitely be booking her again!”
About: English // Français: Entirely bilingual // Entièrement bilingue -- French follows below I basically grew up around animals; my mother is a vet, and when I was a kid I'd beg to go to her clinic with her and take care of all the dogs and cats. I've spent time volunteering at her clinic, helping care for animals and becoming comfortable around pets with different needs. She's taught me how to recognize that a pet may not be feeling well, how to respond appropriately, how to administer oral medications, and how to know when it would be important to contact the owner. She is also the reason I am incredibly comfortable around any and all kinds of animals. I've cared for dogs of different ages, sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I'm happy to adapt my care to each pet's individual needs. I have never met a pet I didn't immediately love, and you can expect plenty of photo updates... Finding the right angle is my favourite activity! I will make sure to keep your furry friend safe, accompanied, and happy, whether this be on walks or while house sitting! My goal as a dog sitter / walker is to make sure that you as an owner feel at ease knowing your fluff-ball is in caring and capable hands, and that your pet is happy and safe. Please don't hesitate to contact me for any information at all! I reply quickly, my schedules are very flexible, and I would love to hear about your pets and whether I'd be a good fit for them. See you soon! --- Je m'occupe des animaux depuis mon plus jeune âge; ma mère est vétérinaire et, enfant, je la suppliais de m'emmener à la clinique pour m'occuper des animaux présents. C'est grâce à elle que j'adore autant les animaux. Elle m'a également appris à reconnaître les signes indiquant qu'un animal ne se sent peut-être pas bien, à l'aider et à suivre efficacement les instructions de soins donné par un propriétaire. J'ai beaucoup expérience avec toutes sortes de chiens, et je sais m'adapter à chacun d'eux. Je n'ai jamais rencontré un chien que je n'ai pas immédiatement adoré, et je prendrai volontiers des photos de votre compagnon à quatre pattes lors de nos sorties. C'est ce que je préfère faire! Je veillerai à ce que votre animal soit en sécurité, bien entouré et heureux, que ce soit lors de promenades ou pendant une garde à domicile. Mon objectif principal en tant que "dog-sitter" ou promeneur est de vous rassurer en tant que propriétaire, et que vous savez avec certitude que votre compagnon est entre des mains expérimentées. N'hésitez surtout pas à me contacter pour toutes informations! Je réponds rapidement, mes horaires sont très flexibles et je serais ravi d'en savoir plus sur vos animaux et de voir si je leur conviendrais. À bientôt ! I own a dog myself, so I am no stranger to the feeding, walking, and cleaning routines that come with owning a pet. All I need are a few clear instructions on how you'd like me to care for your pet, and I will get right to it. For any service I offer, I make sure I properly get to know your pet as one of my own, and I can easily take to adapting to their living rhythms. I understand how stressful it can be for a pet to suddenly have a new person around, so remaining within their comfort zone stays my priority as an adaptable sitter to make sure they're as happy as possible.
“I'm so happy with the exceptional care Zhubo provided for my cat during the drop-in visit. She paid attention to the details of my cat's diet habits and stayed to play with her so she didn’t feel too lonely while I was away. Beyond that, she provided very nice photos of my cat! My cat looks very good and relaxed in the photos, which gives me great peace of mind. I will definitely book her services to take care of my cat in the future if I am away from home. Highly recommend for anyone needing reliable and caring pet care services. Thank you, Zhubo!”
“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!”
About: Bonjour ! Nous, c’est César et Mathilde, et nous vivons avec notre Beagle de 4 ans, Lewis 🐶. Nous travaillons en télétravail, ce qui nous permet d’être présent toute la journée pour s’occuper de Lewis et des chiens que nous accueillons à la maison. Le midi, on part pour une grande balade de 45 minutes à 1h dans un parc ou dans les ruelles vertes du quartier, et on refait une sortie du même genre le soir. On fait aussi quelques balades intermédiaires dans la journée pour les pauses pipi ou les petits moments de jeu. Quand Lewis était chiot, il avait beaucoup d’énergie 😅 on a donc suivi des cours d’éducation canine et appris à bien comprendre les chiens et leurs besoins. Aujourd’hui encore, il adore jouer et demande de l’attention, donc ici, les toutous ne s’ennuient jamais… et surtout, nous savons les comprendre ! Nous vivons dans un appartement avec un toit terrasse, où les chiens peuvent sortir et profiter de l’air frais. Le week-end nous sommes disponibles aussi ! Câlins garantis ! On sait à quel point c’est difficile de confier son chien ❤️ alors on prend le temps de vous donner des nouvelles et photos aussi souvent que vous le souhaitez, pour que vous soyez sereins. Avant chaque garde, on fait toujours une petite rencontre-test pour s’assurer que tout se passe bien entre votre chien et Lewis afin qu’ils deviennent les meilleurs copains du monde 🐾 Nous travaillons principalement depuis la maison, ce qui nous permet d’être disponibles tout au long de la journée pour les chiens que nous gardons 🐶. Les balades font partie intégrante de notre routine : une grande promenade de 45 min à 1h le midi au parc ou dans les ruelles vertes, une autre en soirée, et plusieurs sorties intermédiaires pour les besoins et les moments de jeu. Nous avons un chien qui a besoin de sortir donc nous sommes habitués !! À la maison, les chiens bénéficient d’un environnement sécurisé et nous veillons à ce qu’ils ne manquent jamais de surveillance. Ils sont libres de se reposer à l’intérieur, et le canapé est autorisé 🛋️. Nous adaptons les soins et les activités à chaque chien : balades régulières, pauses, jeux et câlins selon leurs besoins. Nous prenons aussi le temps de faire une rencontre-test avant la garde pour nous assurer que votre chien s’entend bien avec Lewis, notre Beagle de 4 ans. Nous envoyons photos et nouvelles aussi souvent que vous le souhaitez, pour que vous soyez rassuré.
“Jane did a phenomenal job caring for my senior cat while I was away. She provided thorough updates and photos that gave me great confidence that my girl was being well cared for. I am beyond satisfied with her services and would absolutely book with her again in the future.”
About: Hi there, please call me Nolan!!! I’ve grown up with dogs, dog sat, dog walked, and just had fun interacting with dogs pretty much my entire life. I started dog sitting and walking about 15 years ago. I love dogs and animals of all kinds. However, due to accommodating my roommates allergies I cannot do any cats, and due to apartment living no large breed dogs out of concern for them! I would love to walk, check-in, have a playdate, provide daycare or overnight (short & long term welcome) care for your pup!! Oh and I have experience with puppies and seniors, although there is a preference for no puppies under 6 months!! Thank you!! I currently don’t work and am willing and able to take care of your dog in my home! I will be home most of the time for feeding, making sure there is water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, etc. I am able to walk or do check-ins at your home, or I can provide daycare or overnight services in my home! I live in a 2 bedroom, large condo unit with plenty of room to play, a balcony, and lots of green spaces near by!!
About: My background in veterinary care allows me to provide a higher level of attention and support for every pet regardless of age, condition or temperament. I currently maintain a flexible weekly schedule, allowing me to offer reliable, attentive and consistent care for pets throughout the week. I will always have flexibility to accommodate each pet’s individual needs. I provide loving pet care by following routines, ensuring feeding, walks, playtime, clean spaces, safety, and plenty of attention every day they are with me.
“I needed someone at the last minute, and was not home to give the keys or instructions. Fiorella seamlessly received and followed instructions remotely to get access to the keys and take care of my old lady cat. I strongly recommend her!”

Sara is doing an amazing job caring for our furry babies! Sable has a blast with her and gets plenty of pets. Pebbles can be quite shy, but her willingness to come out of her hiding spot demonstrates Sara’s patience and sweet nature. She keeps us updated with pictures and news, which is fantastic. Sara’s also considerate when Sable makes a mess and is patient with both of them.
He did an amazing job taking care of my dog! He was very patient, caring, and attentive, and he followed all of my instructions perfectly. I felt completely comfortable knowing my dog was in good hands while I was away. He kept me updated and made sure everything was done exactly as requested. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for someone reliable and trustworthy to take care of their pets. I will absolutely book with him again!
Morgan was absolutely amazing with Coco. From the moment we left him with Morgan, we felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. She took such great care of him, gave him so much love and attention, and kept us updated throughout her stay. It was clear that Coco was happy, comfortable, and very well taken care of. We’re so grateful for Morgan and would 100% trust her with Coco again. Thank you so much, Morgan! 🥰 ps: Coco is insulin-dependent and Morgan did well!!
She was an amazing pet sitter! She was patient with my dogs, and I came home to everything clean and exactly as I left it. She followed all of my instructions carefully, kept me updated, and was always attentive, responsible, and kind. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my pets were in good hands. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter
Evelyne has been helping us train our dog to be calmer and more comfortable around people, and we’ve already seen such a big difference. She’s so patient, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. Every session is relaxed and positive. You can tell she genuinely cares about both the dogs and their owners, and she always makes us feel supported and encouraged. We’re so happy with how far our dog has come and are excited to keep working with her. If you’re looking for someone who makes training enjoyable, I would absolutely recommend Evelyne!

There are 1,639 sitters on Rover for Dog Sitting in Montréal. About 84% of Montréal 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.
Rover makes it easy to find sitters who are available during your working hours. To find sitters who fit your schedule, select which days of the week and the time slots you'd like a sitter to visit. The search results will populate sitters whose calendars match your needs. You can also search for sitters by location, whether that’s a sitter near your office for day care drop-off or a sitter close to your home.

Tip: Doggy day care is another option for pet supervision while you're at work. Visit our doggy day care page for more information.
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 Montréal 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 Montréal 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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
