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.

My goodness, Maire is truly exceptional. I have a very energetic Bernedoodle puppy, and she handles her with such patience, and ease. Ru absolutely adores her, and so do I. I recently had an unexpected emergency, and Maire stepped in without hesitation to care for Ru in my absence. That kind of reliability and heart means everything. She has the calmest, sweetest spirit, and you can genuinely feel how much she loves animals. I cannot recommend Maire highly enough. She is a gift. 🐶✨

About: Since the age of 8 years old our household always had a pet. I had guinea pigs growing up, birds, fish and then we got our dog that we had for 14 years. I currently have a guinea pig that I rescued from the SPCA. I'm self employed and I am a super active person. I'm always walking on the canal during breaks to stay moving. In addition, my office is also my home base so I'm always around! I always approach animals softly, making sure they feel trusted by me. I know some dogs can be nervous and don't love meeting new people, so I always try to approach calmly until they know me!

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.

About: I've had the joy of caring for many pets over the years! My personal highlights definitely include a family friend's rambunctious little puppy and my own lovely two dogs and two cats as they've grown into old age. Now away at university, I've been missing long walks and playtime, and I'd love to get to know your pets! I'm available at all hours of the day to help care for your beloved pets! University will reclaim all my waking hours during finals season in a few months, but for now I'm free as a bird. I can comfortably administer medication at regular intervals, care for senior animals with special needs, give baths, and work with puppies on basic training. I don't shy away from messes or fur. I'll ensure your pet receives all the love and careful attention they need!

About: I’ve lived with, and enjoyed the companion of dogs and cats my entire life. My very first job was dog walking where I became acquainted with all different breeds. Since then, I’ve gained further experience with training and have pet-sat many a four legged friend. I have experience administrating medication, and am happy to accommodate your pup’s specific needs. In addition, I also welcome any four-legged clients who struggle with reactivity on walks. I work remotely, and am thus able to accommodate most needs and schedules. This includes (but is not limited) to those midday potty breaks, or extra snuggles. Contact me any time of the week for pet care. I am available to pet-sit in your home or mine. I live in close proximity to Mont-Royal where I will walk your pup. No other pets reside in my home, so your fur-baby will be my only priority.

I have taken care of my neighbours’ and my friends’ cats and dogs over the past few years as well. Currently I am not taking any summer courses at McGill University, and therefore, I am free everyday. :) I can work anytime from Monday to Sunday. I am a very careful person and I will watch your pets with full attention. I am patient and I know some strategies to calm pets down.

About: Hi 👋 I’m Jingyi — pet sitter, dog walker, and animal lover based in Montreal 🐾 I’ve always loved the calm, joyful energy animals bring, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. My goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while giving owners peace of mind through attentive communication and regular updates. ✨ Why pet parents choose Joyful Paws 🧘 Calm & Attentive Care I keep my bookings limited so every pet receives personalized attention, patience, and a low-stress environment tailored to their needs and energy level. 💬 Frequent Updates & Trustworthy Communication One thing my clients consistently appreciate is how attentive and communicative I am. I send regular updates and photos so you always know your pet is safe, happy, and cared for. 📸 Thoughtful Pet Photos Included I love capturing natural little moments during walks, playtime, or cozy rest breaks — simple memories you can look back on while you’re away. ✅ Reliable & Detail-Oriented With my background in business analysis, I’m organized, dependable, and attentive to routines, feeding instructions, medications, and small details that matter to your pet’s comfort. 🏡 My Care Style I work from home most of the week, allowing me to provide flexible and consistent companionship throughout the day. I live in a clean, calm, child-free apartment and currently do not have pets of my own, creating a quiet and dedicated environment for your pet to feel relaxed and secure 💛 I work from home most of the week, which allows me to be present and flexible. I’m typically home during the day and able to provide consistent attention, playtime, and companionship. I live in a clean, calm, child-free apartment. I don’t currently have pets of my own, so your pet will have a quiet and dedicated space. I always make sure dogs are safely leashed and walked in familiar, pet-friendly areas. I’m attentive to their behavior and comfort, and I treat each dog like my own.

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. Veuillez noter que si votre animal nécessite un traitement spécialisé (entreprise 24/7, médicaments programmés, etc.), les tarifs seront ajustés en conséquence. Merci ! EN I offer house sitting, so I am fully available during the week and weekends. My schedule is very flexible. Let’s chat! I can also offer sliding scale, so if something is out of your budget, please reach out, I’d love to help :) FR Je propose le gardiennage de maison, donc je suis entièrement disponible pendant la semaine et les week-ends. 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.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Montréal

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Montréal on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking 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 Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

There are 1,871 sitters on Rover for Dog Walking in Montréal. About 81% 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.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in Montréal. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighbourhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

Tip: Keep in mind that many cities in Canada require your dog walker to have a permit or licence for group walks.

For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance travelled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Montréal.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s walk begins.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits, dog walking, and doggy day care. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find walkers in Montréal with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they do not have any disqualifying offences.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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 walker.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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.

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!

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:

  • 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 86% 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.
