“Alexia was great with communication and kindly followed the instructions we left. It was nice to see pics while we were away to know our babies were safe, and it seems like they liked her! Would definitely recommend :)”
“Annie was lovely, helpful, inquisitive, and super communicative! She made me feel at ease despite some anxiety around my older cat Patty - who needed medication - and helpfully took the time to come meet the cats before our booking. I would and will definitely user her services again :)”
About: I love dogs! I have been taking care of dogs with Rover for a year and a half so I am familiar with how to respond to different personalities and ensure they're happy and taken care of. I have experience administering oral medication and looking after high-energy puppies. I have also completed canine training with the Toronto Humane Society which covered animal behaviour and positive reinforcement learning. I am currently a Master's student at McGill so I can spend time with a pet for dog walking, house sitting, and drop-in visits during the week! :) I can offer dog walking services and play sessions in the large outdoor parks in the city. I enjoy long walks so distance is not a problem ☺️
“The best pet sitter I’ve ever had. My pups loved him and the pictures and videos he sent were so nice! My dogs looked so happy. I was nervous about using rover but after my experience with Iván I recommend it to everyone !!! Thank you ivan!!!”
“Marilyn was really responsible gentleman and communicated perfectly. If you are looking for a sitter but it's hard for you to find someone you can trust she is the perfect person for it. From now on she would be my go to sitter!”
“Eve was amazing in taking care of our two cats for the 10 days we were away!! She went above and beyond to make sure even some minor tasks at my home were taken care of. I couldn’t be happier, honestly. I definitely recommend her!”
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: 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.
About: Passionnée par les chiens depuis l’adoption de mon petit cocker anglais, j’ai suivi pendant 1 an et demi des cours d’éducation canine, ce qui a contribué à mon amour pour les chiens. Pour le moment je n’ai pas d’emploi fixe sur Montréal je suis donc disponible à tout moment pour nos compagnons à quatre pattes pour sortie ou visite à domicile Je m’occupe des animaux en privilégiant les sorties et les jeux avec leurs jouets. L’amusement est important pour nos compagnons et aussi découvrir la multitude d’odeurs à l’extérieur.
About: I have taken care of my chocolate lab Louie for 6 years and along the way I have also house sat for cat owners, dog sat, and cat sat. I have taken care of younger more difficult cats as well so I am well versed in the field! I am generally always available and ready to be of service. I wake up every morning to walk my chocolate lab Louie. My day practically revolves around my dog! I am a very patient care giver who is understanding and accommodating to animals who may have difficult health issues. I am a very respectful person and always make sure that the space is kept the exact same as before I got there.
“Having Ilya take care of our cat Chickpea for a few days was absolutely worth it. The experience from start to finish was top notch - Ilya is very responsive, accommodating, and clearly attuned to your pet’s care needs. Booking and reviewing Chickpea’s routine was super smooth, we received updates and pictures while we were gone, and we came back to a very happy little garbanzo bean. What more can you ask for? We would definitely trust Ilya with Chickpea’s care again in the future.”
About: I've been taking care of pets since childhood and love all animals! My family currently has one dog and two cats that I take care of whenever I am home. For my adorable dog: I take him on walks every day, feed him dry and raw dog food, refill his water bowl, pick up poop, clean up indoor messes, and spend time cuddling him, playing games and teaching him new tricks. For my wonderful cats: I feed them dry food and cat pate every day, clean their litter box and deep clean it regularly, put their harnesses on so they can go outside, brush their fur and cut their claws regularly, and play and cuddle with them all the time. I'm available to care for your pets every day of the week, just at different times. Mondays, Fridays, and on the weekend I am free almost all day (some exceptions on specific days). Tuesdays and Thursdays after 1pm, and Wednesdays until 4pm. I am very flexible and am sure we can work out a good schedule for your pets! I am very reliable and trustworthy, and will make sure your dog or cat feels comfortable while I am in their space. When meeting a new animal, I always start off slowly, letting them sniff me and get used to my presence around them. I am happy to meet all of your pets needs: administering medications, a specific feeding schedule, or anything else!
About: I have grown up around animals all my life and approach my care with warmth, patience, and affection. I currently have a rescue lab retriever mix (heavy on the mix) and grew up with cats. I believe we can learn so much from animals and deeply appreciate taking the time to get to know each personality. I'm detail oriented and a reliable communicator, approaching each new pet with compassion and curiosity. I am a contract worker in the performing arts and so my schedule is very flexible. Currently I am typically am available each day between the hours of 7am and 9pm. I value safety and emotional well-being above all and so sticking to their regular routine is my is priority. Because of my flexible schedule, I am able to adapt my routine with each of the pets I care for. I love playtime and cuddles and also understand that each pet has their boundaries and respect those always.
“Celeste is definitely a cat lover! She took great care of my cat and was wonderful to work with! She sent daily updates, and shared lots of photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I would definitely book with her again!”
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Kinneret! From September 7th until now, she has been absolutely amazing with Benji. She was always punctual, responsible, dependable, and incredibly caring. It was clear from the very beginning that Benji was in such good hands.Kinneret treated him with so much warmth, love, and attention, and I always felt completely comfortable knowing she was taking care of him. She went above and beyond to make sure he was happy, comfortable, and well looked after. It is such a gift to find someone you can truly trust with your dog, and Kinneret is exactly that person. Benji was so lucky to have her, and I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and wonderful dog sitter. We are so grateful for everything she did for Benji! ❤️🐾”
About: Pour moi, prendre soin d’un chien, ce n’est pas simplement le promener ou lui tenir compagnie, c’est avant tout veiller à son bonheur, à sa sécurité et à son bien-être. 🐾 Ayant déjà eu l’occasion de m’occuper de chiens, je comprends l’importance de respecter leurs habitudes, leur personnalité et leurs besoins individuels. Ce qui me distingue, c’est mon attention aux petits détails et mon approche personnalisée. Je prends le temps d’apprendre à connaître chaque chien : son tempérament, son niveau d’énergie, ses préférences et les consignes de son propriétaire. Lors des promenades, je privilégie la sécurité, la patience et le respect du rythme de chaque animal. Qu’il s’agisse d’un chien énergique qui aime explorer ou d’un compagnon plus calme qui préfère prendre son temps, je m’adapte à ses besoins. Je sais également à quel point il est important de confier son animal à une personne de confiance. C’est pourquoi je privilégie une communication transparente avec les propriétaires, en leur envoyant des nouvelles et des photos pendant les services. Mon objectif est simple : que chaque chien se sente bien accompagné et que son propriétaire puisse partir l’esprit tranquille. 🐶💕 Mon horaire flexible me permet de consacrer du temps aux promenades et aux visites à domicile tout au long de la semaine. 🐾 J’aime organiser mes journées afin d’offrir à chaque animal toute l’attention qu’il mérite, sans précipitation. Je privilégie les clients de Parc-Extension et des quartiers voisins pour faciliter les déplacements et assurer un service ponctuel et régulier. Je suis également ouverte aux promenades récurrentes, selon mes disponibilités, pour que votre compagnon puisse profiter d’une routine stable et rassurante. La sécurité et le bien-être de votre compagnon sont toujours mes priorités. Avant chaque première garde ou promenade, je prends le temps de discuter avec vous de ses habitudes, de son tempérament, de ses besoins particuliers et des consignes à respecter. Lors des promenades, je reste attentive à son comportement, à la circulation, aux conditions météorologiques et à son niveau d’énergie. Je garde toujours le chien en laisse dans les endroits où cela est nécessaire et j’évite les interactions avec d’autres animaux sans votre autorisation. Lors des visites à domicile, je respecte votre espace, les habitudes de votre animal et toutes vos instructions concernant son alimentation, son confort et sa sécurité. Je peux également vous envoyer des photos et des nouvelles pour vous permettre de suivre ses activités en toute tranquillité. 🐶
About: J’ai eu deux chiens pendants 14 ans. J’ai toujours adoré les chiens. comme je sais mon emploi du temps à l’avance , je sais que les jours que j’offre de disponible je serais présent complètement pour m’occuper des animaux. J’habite dans le quartier du mile-end / plateau Mont-Royal et au besoin je peux offrir un service de transport également. J’ai un petit chiot teckel miniature Je travaille a temps partiel. Les journées que j’offre disponible je ne travaille pas et je suis disponible pour m’occuper de votre animal à 100%. J’adore marcher ou même courir si le propriétaire est d’accord. Je vis à 2 minutes du parc du Mont-Royal et j’adorerais marcher mes chiens au haut de la montagne. Endroit idéal pour croiser d’autres chiens. De plus, il y a plusieurs parcs a chiens à proximité. Je suis très flexible selon le besoin des propriétaires; je peux me déplacer chez eux ou les accueillir chez moi. Je priorise les sorties à l’extérieur , les marches etc.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Montréal
Magali was amazing our two cats ! We had difficulty our feeder the first day on our trip and Magali called us on her visit to help us reconnect it ! She made sure the kitties were well fed and loved during our absence and it gave us so much peace of mind. She was thorough with her updates and took amazing pictures of the kitties ! Thank you so much for the care to our fur babies. If you are searching for a pet sitter, contact Magali !
Omg Chloe was amazing! I’m so grateful she accepted such a last minute booking and was so responsive and professional. My little benson has separation anxiety and doesn’t usually adjust to new people so easily but clearly Chloe has a calm and warm presence that she couldn’t resist. Chloe had no problem getting her to play and administering her medication. Will definitely book again!!!!
Came through for us and Tigger (our 14.5 year old senior Beagle who at this point needs a human around when we have to leave the house) on short notice. Tigger seemed to get along very well with Mason, and you could tell Mason has plenty of experience with senior dogs. We will definitely be booking Mason again in the future!
I had a wonderful experience with Isra! She took Oreo for a full one-hour walk and then spent another half hour at home keeping him and my two cats company. She was very kind, caring, and helpful throughout the entire visit. She kept me updated and sent me pictures, which gave me great peace of mind knowing my fur babies were in good hands. Isra is reliable, thoughtful, and clearly loves animals. I truly appreciate her care and attention, and I will definitely be booking her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Montréal is $23 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $35 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 1,819 sitters on Rover for Pet 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.
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.
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 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.
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 tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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.
Payment is handled securely through Rover. For a one-time booking, your payment method is charged at the time of checkout when you submit your booking request. This charge will include fees payable to Rover. Your booking is confirmed once the sitter accepts it.
If the request is not accepted, the pending charge is released in 1-7 days. How long it takes to disappear from your account depends on your payment provider.
For eligible recurring weekly services, you are charged for the first week when you book and then each Monday for the upcoming week. You’ll see the full price before you confirm. Always pay through Rover so your booking remains eligible for the Rover Guarantee and support.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 82% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 86% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 92% 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.
