About: When I lived with my parents, I took care of my puppy with my mom, we bought food and toys, gave her bath, walk and run with her a lot, clipped nails and brushed. Prefer drop-in visits to walk a dog, which I can do everyday except Wednesday. Prefer weekends, I'm typically free on Thursday afternoons, Saturdays, and Sundays. I can give your pets walks, feed them, play with them, and update with you. I live in an apartment downtown where I don't have pets.
“Brianna was great! She communicated with me every day, sending photos and letting me know how my cat was doing. She looked after him well and meant I could be away for Christmas. Would definitely book again! She also kept in contact before the booking started, after our meet and greet, so I always had piece of mind. Thank you!”

I’m a university graduate who recently relocated, and while I no longer have pets of my own, caring for animals is something I deeply enjoy and I would be happy to look after your pets while you're away.

Feel free to contact me with any questions, I'm always happy to arrange a phone call or meet & greet. Bonjour je m’appelle Avery. (Je suis anglophone, mais je suis heureuse de communiquer en français si vous en aurez besoin) Je suis disponible pour prendre soin de chiens, chats, lapins et d’autre animaux de compagnie et les reptiles. J’ai de l’experience avec des chiens de toutes tailles et je suis capable de les gérer. J’ai aussi de l’experience avec les chiens réactifs et anxieux. J’avais beaucoup des animaux quand j’étais enfante et j’avais l’opportunité d’être gardienne pour des chiens, chats, reptiles et meme les poulets! J’étais également bénévole à la société protectrice des animaux de ma région. J’aimerais prendre soin de vos animaux pendant vos vacances. Je serais ravis de vous fournir des photos et des mis-à-jours. Laissez moi savoir si vous avez des questions! Bien à vous Avery I'm available for pet-sitting weekdays & weekends.

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.
“Yiran did an awesome job checking in on my two cats while I was out of town. I have one scaredy cat and another that is friendly but temperamental, and they both seemed happy when I got back from my trip!”

About: Dog walking was my very first job; when I was 12 years old I began walking my neighbour’s Dalmatian named Sarah. I stopped working as a dog walker after she passed away, but I’m eager to get back into it! I still have plenty of friends with dogs and am familiar with the basics of caring for them. I’m a student but my work load is light this year so I have plenty of time to care for your pet! I’m usually free on weekends and evenings, possibly mornings or mid-day between classes. I can offer dog walking and drop in care for pets of any kind. My apartment doesn’t allow animals unfortunately, so I can’t offer boarding, but I’m open to house-sitting if your pet needs overnight care.
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.
“Matan did an excellent job taking care of my three cats while I was away. He was very professional, accommodating me last minute, which was a huge relief during a stressful time. I really appreciated the pictures and updates he sent regularly, which kept me informed and reassured. When I returned home, the living room and bathroom were as clean and vacuumed. Matan went above and beyond by cleaning up and organizing everything, making my return from a long trip so much easier. I also want to commend Matan for not being afraid to take on the challenge of caring for my three cats in a small space, with just one litter box, and one of them having a terminal illness. He administered her medications with no problem, which was incredibly reassuring. I highly recommend Matan for anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter!”
About: I take the time to learn each dog’s personality, energy level, and routine so they feel secure and understood. Whether your dog is playful and energetic or calm and cuddly, I adjust to their needs and make sure they get the right balance of exercise, affection, and companionship Pet care fits very naturally into my weekly routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. I make sure to plan my schedule around the pets I’m caring for so they receive consistent attention, walks, and playtime without feeling rushed. I care for pets the way I’d want someone to care for my own. I follow their normal routine, make sure they’re fed on time, get their walks, playtime, and lots of love and attention. In your home, I respect your space and keep things clean while making sure your pet feels comfortable and relaxed. In my home, I create a safe, calm space where they can play, rest, and feel at home. Most importantly, I give them patience, affection, and genuine care
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.
“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 am in MTL for my studies and I let my baby (dog) of 7 years behind with my family. I miss him everyday and would love to take care of other dogs during my time here and give the dogs I pet-sit all of the love, care and attention I would have given to my dog if I was with him. I am a full time student at university but I have many breaks in between classes and love to walk during them. It would be amazing to enjoy walks with dogs or just spend time with them wherever. Dogs are like a happy pill to me :) When I go to a client’s home, the way I care for a dog depends on their owner’s preferences and on each pet’s specific needs.
About: Hi! I’m Kani, I am a lifelong animal lover with years of pet care experience. I have my own dog who lives with my family in Vancouver while I finish my studies here, and I definitely know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry little ones. I offer a safe, fun, and loving space filled with walks, playtime, and lots of cuddles/pets. I’ll treat your pet like my own and make sure they feel happy, comfortable, and cared for. Pet care is a top priority in my daily routine, I love going on walks and I love dog parks. I’ll make sure your baby eats at the appropriate times and is active enough to have a good sleep! I create a pet friendly environment with all the necessary amenities :) I offer a safe, clean, and comfortable space for your pets. Ill also tailor my services to their specific needs, ensuring everyone receive the care, attention, and love they deserve :)
About: I’ve been around dogs for as long as I can remember, and looking after them has always been a part of my everyday routine. From friends, family, and neighbors often count on me to help out with walks, feedings, baths, or just keeping their dogs company when they’re away. I love getting to know each dog’s personality—whether they’re playful, shy, or just want a calm cuddle—and making sure they feel safe and cared for while their people are gone. I’m a full-time student, but I keep Fridays through Sundays open for pet care. Weekday afternoons can also be flexible, so I have time to walk, play with, and look after your pups when you need an extra hand. I make sure every dog feels safe and comfortable, whether they’re staying at my place or I’m visiting yours. At home, I have a fenced yard and open space for them to roam and fun. I always supervise playtime, keep fresh water available, and can crate dogs if that’s what they’re used to. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routines so they feel secure and cared for.
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.

“Mathieu est une personne très douce et respectueuse qui s’est super bien occupé de nos chats en notre absence ! Nous avons eu des nouvelles à chaque passage avec des photos montrant qu’ils ont bien été chouchoutés (gratouilles/ jeux). L’un de nos deux chat a un caractère plus difficile que l’autre. Il a su s’y s’adapter sans aucune crainte et avec facilité ce qui nous a permis de partir en étant très sereins. Merci à lui ! Nous referont appel à ses services avec grand plaisir !”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Montréal
Dina was very professional during our Meet & Greet and put me at ease, she was clearly experienced with dogs. She was punctual and provided photos during her check-in. I was free to enjoy my evening knowing Tilly had been comfortable enough to eat her dinner and had a fun outing. I would book Dina's services again!

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

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Montréal is $28 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $40 per visit. On Rover, sitters 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 1,677 sitters on Rover for Dog Sitting in Montréal. About 83% of Montréal sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes.

Once you find the right match, you can arrange a to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
Before the first visit, give your sitter clear written instructions covering your pet’s feeding routine, medication, litter or toilet care, preferred activities, behaviour, and anything that may make them anxious. This is a good idea, even if you’ve had a Meet & Greet.
Your instructions should explain where supplies, such as food, treats, medication, leashes, litter and cleaning supplies are kept. Include your vet’s details and an emergency contact, and let your sitter know what signs could indicate that something is wrong.
For some visits, you may want to confirm how the sitter will access your home and identify any rooms or areas that are off-limits. Update these instructions whenever your pet’s routine or needs change.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 .

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 sitter 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 sitter 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 sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our .
