About: I’ve grown up with 3 dogs and have been taking care of dogs and various animals around my neighborhood for years. I enjoy training puppies and also taking care of senior dogs. J'ai grandi avec 3 chiens et je m'occupe de chiens et de divers animaux dans mon quartier depuis des années. J'aime dresser les chiots et aussi m'occuper de chiens âgés. I am a student at McGill university but currently in summer break looking for extra work opportunities. Once the school year starts, part time sitting and walking will fit in perfectly with my schedule. Je suis étudiante à l'université McGill, mais je suis actuellement en vacances d'été à la recherche d'opportunités de travail supplémentaires. Une fois l'année scolaire commencée, s'asseoir et marcher à temps partiel s'intégrera parfaitement à mon emploi du temps. I treat your home and pet with the utmost respect. I stick to your instructions, maintain your pet’s routine, and keep everything tidy. Whether it’s giving meds, watering plants, or providing updates and photos, I make sure your pet feels secure and loved while you’re away. Je traite votre maison et votre animal de compagnie avec le plus grand respect. Je m'en tiens à vos instructions, je maintiens la routine de votre animal de compagnie et je garde tout en ordre. Qu'il s'agisse de donner des médicaments, d'arroser des plantes ou de fournir des mises à jour et des photos, je m'assure que votre animal de compagnie se sent en sécurité et aimé pendant votre absence.
“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: I love young dogs, old dogs, small dogs, big dogs, farm dogs, rescue dogs, shy dogs, energetic dogs, loud dogs and quiet dogs! Dogs of any kind and all walks of life :) I am a teacher that is off for the summer. I am available all day and 7 days a week. I can travel to you or you can bring pets to me! I have a small back yard and live 5 minutes from a large parc with a dog park. I live with my own cat and dog with my partner but we have another apartment that can accommodate pets who don’t like to share :) I have both dog supplies and cat supplies to entertain and comfort your pet. I have enough space to allow pets to bring their own items too :)
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.
“Sogol is a wonderful dog walker! Very trustworthy, communicative, friendly, and punctual. She was constantly sending us photos of our little Dexter boy while taking him out on nice walks. Would definitely recommend Sogol to any of our friends!”
About: I'm a lifelong animal lover, and whilst I have more experience with cats, I am also the go-to dog-sitter for my brother's two dogs whenever they need care or looking after! I have experience handling everything from feeding and walks to looking after them overnight. I treat every animal with the same love, patience, and undivided attention I would give my own pets! I have just moved to Montreal and am currently taking French classes to improve my language skills, Monday, Wednesday and Thursday afternoons between 1:30pm - 4:30pm. Otherwise, I have a lot of free time and am willing to be flexible to yours and your pet's schedule! I am currently in a sublet that has two indoor cats, so I wouldn't be able to care for pets in my own home. But I would be very happy to stay with your pet in your home and provide any care as needed! I am trustworthy and reliable, and I am truly doing this for the love of animals!
About: I've had my own dog for over 10 years, she's not just a pet, she's family. Trough every stage of her life, I've learned how to care for dogs with patience, love and attention to detail. I've also have experience of working in a dog shelter as a volunteer, where I learned how to handle nervous, energetic or shy dogs. I'll make sure your dog feels safe, loved and happy. I am available most days and times, including weekdays, weekends and even last-minute booking. Whether your pet needs early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening cuddle time, I'm happy to adjust to your routine I treat every pet as if they were my own, and their safety and comfort always come first. I always stay alert and I'll be happy to follow any specific instructions you provide, from feeding schedules to medications and leash preferences. You can trust that your pet will be in calm, capable and loving hands with me.
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and have experience caring for dogs, hamsters, and birds since I was very young. Growing up with pets taught me the importance of patience, responsibility, and understanding each animal’s unique personality and needs. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have regularly looked after dogs and cats for family members and family friends. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playing, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship, I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive care and give pet owners peace of mind knowing their furry family members are in good hands. As a student with a flexible schedule, I’m able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and overnight pet sitting, and I do my best to accommodate each pet’s routine. Whether your pet needs a midday walk, regular check-ins while you’re away, or overnight companionship, I strive to provide reliable and consistent care. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. When caring for pets in their own home, I make every effort to maintain their normal routine and keep their environment calm and familiar. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, exercise, medications, and household rules. I understand that inviting someone into your home requires trust, and I treat both your pets and your home with the utmost respect while providing attentive, loving care.
“Lynne is super special! I could tell that she was a dog person right away and my dog Poppy loved her as soon as they met! Lynne is thoughtful, considerate, responsible and so so kind to Poppy. I would highly recommend Lynne to anyone who is looking for an amazing caregiver for their pet! Thank you Lynne !”
“Eve is amazing! She spent lots of time with my girl playing and having fun. She took extra care to point out a scratch (which was already there!) just in case, which to me showed how much she cares. She shared lots of great pics too :) highly recommend!”
About: I have one super cute bunny and I have been taking loving care of her for about three years now. 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.
“Maya was awesome! She is extremely reliable and i trusted her to pick up Rhaine while i was at work. She treated my dog as if it was her own and always brightened up her day! I recommend Maya to anyone who needs help with taking care of their animals!”
About: I have two cats and frequently find myself caring for other's pets too. I love all animals as my own and will take great care of your cuties and your place. In my interactions, I take your pet's lead in the amount of energy and attention they need from me, whether that is going for long walks up the mountain or having a quiet conversation on the couch. You can expect photos and updates after each visit! 💕 I have experience caring for dogs of various breeds and sizes and providing basic training via positive reinforcement learning. Additionally, I am an avid plant keeper and would be happy to maintain your plant collection or garden while you are away. Please note: If you request boarding services, your dog needs to be socialized with cats. I have a smallish fenced-in yard that can be set up to comfortably host a pup with in-and-out access. We would need to have a meet and greet with my cats in advance to see if it's a good fit. As a school educator who is off over the summer, I have a very open schedule during the day. This allows me to provide your pet with the frequent bathroom breaks, medication, and personalized attention they may need to stay happy and comfortable while you're away. I am careful to follow your instructions fully. I myself have regimented care instructions for my cats including doing ninja moves to make sure they do not escape outside as well as weighing their food to the gram and you can expect the same amount of care toward your cuties. I am knowledgeable about potential toxins to both cats and dogs and will make sure they stay clear of them. On walks, I am actively scanning the environment to spot potential dangers or keep your dog from being a street vacuum 😉
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.
The median cost per walk for dog walking in Montréal is $20
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Montréal
She was absolutely fantastic with my dog! From the moment they met, it was clear that she has a special gift with animals. She is kind, patient, and genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. My dog adored her and always came back happy and well cared for. She kept me updated and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog walker.
Regina was amazing!! She was such a big help while one of us was travelling to walk Sadie daily. Sadie even seems to be better on walks post being with Regina. She was very attentive to the things we were currently teaching Sadie and continue that on her daily walks and there has been such an improvement. Will definitely be booking again :)
John and Pascal were EXCEPTIONAL. They took great care of Tobby, doing morning walks while I was away on a week-long business trip, thus giving some valuable time back to my wife who could then take our daughter to school without rushing and worrying about the dog. I received updates each morning, including pictures and a complete report on each walk! John was also highly empathetic and responsive to my last-minute worries and requests. I would highly recommend John and Pascal.

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 June 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 1,944 sitters on Rover for Dog Walking in Montréal. About 83% 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:
- 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 88% 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.
