“I really had a great experience to have my Karupin on Donafel's hand. It's my first time to let Karupin stay away from me during my 3 weeks vacation. In terms beginning I really worried how he will be.”

“The best sitters we’ve ever had on this app! Kevin and Camille were super kind, communicative, and caring to my two cats for our weeklong trip. They did a wonderful job feeding, playing, and cleaning up after them each day. They provided detailed updates and photos each day, and when I had a special request, they were always ready to accommodate. I highly recommend them for your next trip!”

About: Je vis avec des chiens depuis plus de 5 ans et je partage mon quotidien avec un berger australien. Je suis à l'aise avec les chiots, les bains, la coupe des griffes et l'administration de médicaments oraux, topiques, et aux soins des petits bobos. J'offre un environnement sécuritaire adapté à leurs besoins, avec jouets, accessoires et barrières et cage au besoin, en plus d'une cours clôturée et d'un super quartier pour se ballader! Je suis à la maison tous les jours, et j'intègre facilement les besoins des nouveaux pensionnaires à ma routine et je passe beaucoup de temps avec eux. On va marcher, s'asseoir dans un parc, et s'il ne fait pas beau on fait des jeux à l'intérieur, de l'obéissance, on apprend des nouveaux tours! Je m'adapte à leurs besoins, et non l'inverse! La sécurité et le bien-être des animaux sont toujours ma priorité. Les chats disposent d'une pièce calme qui leur est entièrement réservée afin de s'acclimater en douceur et d'avoir un espace rassurant aussi longtemps qu'ils en ont besoin. Les rencontres avec mes animaux se font graduellement, sous supervision, et uniquement lorsque le chat est prêt. Pour les chiens, je dispose de barrières de séparation, d'une cage au besoin, ainsi que de jouets et d'accessoires afin de m'adapter à différents tempéraments et habitudes de vie. Si un animal est plus à l'aise en étant séparé ou a besoin d'un environnement plus encadré, je peux facilement répondre à ce besoin. Lors des visites à domicile, je respecte les habitudes de votre compagnon afin qu'il conserve ses repères. Je peux administrer des médicaments, et offrir toute l'attention nécessaire pendant votre absence.

Her communication was amazing, and she sent me lots of photos and videos while I was away, which gave me so much peace of mind. I had very limited internet access during my trip, but she still made every effort to keep me updated, and I really appreciated coming back to all of her messages, photos, and videos. She took wonderful care of my cat and also left my home incredibly clean and tidy. It was clear that she was attentive, caring, and respectful of both my pet and my home. I felt completely comfortable having Jingyi look after everything while I was away and would absolutely book with her again. I highly recommend her!”

About: I have several years of hands-on experience working with animals in both veterinary and pet care settings. I’ve worked as a client care receptionist in animal hospitals, where I regularly interacted with pets of all temperaments, assisted with handling animals, checked pets in for surgery and wellness visits, and helped administer medications when needed. I’ve also worked at PetSmart and a grooming salon, where I cared for animals daily, assisted groomers, bathed and brushed dogs, monitored pet behavior, and ensured pets were safe, comfortable, and happy. Through these roles, I’ve learned how to recognize stress signals, handle pets calmly, and provide compassionate care—especially for nervous or senior animals. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and genuinely passionate about animal well-being. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always prioritize safety, comfort, and routine. I currently have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care. I am an assistant basketball coach and have practices for 1–2 hours on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. Outside of those times, I am available throughout the day for drop-in visits, walks, and pet care. I occasionally have games on weekends, but I still maintain availability before and after games and will always communicate clearly in advance. I’m reliable, organized, and happy to work around your pet’s routine! When caring for pets in their own home, I prioritize maintaining their normal routine to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I carefully follow all instructions provided regarding feeding, medications, walks, litter box care, and playtime. I always approach pets calmly and patiently, paying close attention to their body language and individual needs. I make sure they have fresh food and water, a clean environment, and plenty of attention and affection based on what they’re comfortable with. With my experience working in animal hospitals and pet care settings, I’m comfortable caring for pets of all temperaments, including shy, senior, or nervous animals, and administering medications when needed. I also respect your home by keeping things clean and secure, and I provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is being well cared for.

About: I have had cats in my life since I was 10. I genuinely enjoy and taking care of cats. I love to give the best possible care that they deserve! I have experience in giving medication, caring for senior cats, and following any special routines. I work seasonally in the summer, so this fall and winter I am home most days to visit and hang out with your special kitty. I love meeting new cats and I quickly learn about each cat's needs and wants. I understand some cats are more shy and reserved. I also have a spacious one bedroom apartment which can easily be turned into seperate spaces for cats before they are introduced.

About: Hi! I'm Deria, I'm happy to be your dog's trusted sitter. I know how important it is to make them feel safe and welcomed while you're away. A little bit about myself: I'm a young professional who recently moved from Ottawa to Montreal. I live in an studio apartment in downtown Montreal and I take care of dogs in my free time. I grew up around our family dog Yuta. A sweet and quirky airdaile terrier dog :) she continues to live with my parents while I'm in Montreal. What you may expect from me: When your dog is with me, you can expect plenty of attention, walks, playtime and keeping up their usual routine as much as possible. I will make sure they feel safe and comfortable while you're away. I also value communication and I will be sure to update you on how your pet is doing along the way. My goal is for your dog to have a stress-free positive experience while giving you peace of mind that they are in good care. I look forward to hosting 🐾🦋🌻 Elena is home in the afternoon and Katya is a working remotely from home during the day. We are very flexible with our routine and can adapt to anything new very easily. We offer in home care for 2-3 days and we also offer dog walking services. Our home is very quiet and located in a slow paced neighborhood. There are many dog owners around the area, thus many dog parks.

About: I grew up in a happily chaotic household with multiple cats and dogs, so being around animals has always been a big part of my life! Now that I’m away from home, I’m excited to get some extra furry companionship and give your pets all the love and attention they deserve. I’m a very active person and would love to take your dogs on nice, long walks, get outside, and make sure they have plenty of exercise and stimulation. I also spent two years working in a dog grooming environment back in Calgary, so I have some experience handling dogs and can potentially help with nail trims if needed! I’m also a cat owner myself, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your little family members. Whether your pet needs an adventure buddy, some company while you’re away, or just a little extra affection, I’d love to help! 🐾 I'm currently a university student, and the majority of my classes are online! So my availability is very flexible. I'm typically available anytime between 10:00AM-2:00PM, and 5:00PM-Late. Early mornings work as well! While I’m not currently offering boarding in my own home, I have plenty of experience caring for pets in their own homes! I understand the trust and vulnerability involved in opening your home to someone else, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m committed to respecting your space, your privacy, and your pet’s boundaries while making sure your furry family feels safe and comfortable. I'm happy to follow your pets usual routines, keep them company, and ensure they are well taken care of while you're away.

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was 8 years old, when I walked my neighbours schnauzer around the park almost every weekend until she died when I was 16. I’ve also sat all types of dogs from golden retrievers to puppy dachshunds. I am not afraid of any animals and I’ll always treat them with the best care I can give. Being far from home and away from my pets I am trying to fill the animal sized hole in my heart. I currently a student at Concordia university and don’t have a full time job rather I do freelance work where I can find it luckily most of my classes aren’t in person so I am free almost all of the time Unfortunately I wouldn’t be able to keep any animals in my student residence. But if you invite me into your home to take care of your animal(s) I will treat the area with the upmost respect and will clean up any mess me or the animal makes while I am present

About: I am an animal lover since birth, with both parents retired Veterinarian that can easily provide with help and advice if need be! I cared for my cat with renal issue for that last year and he sadly loss passed away from cancer. I am comfortable giving meds and providing basic medical care if needed. I will also not hesitate to bring your animal to the closest veterinarian if needed. I was always stressed to leave my cat alone and was always grateful to my friend who could stay with him when I was away. I now want to help others do the same things ! I work 12hrs shift at the hospital but I will always be home morning and night to be with your animal, and during my days off ! Je suis une grande amoureuse des animaux depuis toujours. Mes deux parents sont des vétérinaires à la retraite, donc je peux facilement faire appel à leur aide et à leurs conseils au besoin! J’ai pris soin de mon chat qui souffrait de problèmes rénaux au cours de la dernière année. Malheureusement, il nous a quittés après avoir développé un cancer. Je suis à l’aise de donner des médicaments et de prodiguer des soins de base au besoin. Je n’hésiterai également jamais à amener votre animal chez le vétérinaire le plus proche si la situation l’exige. J’ai toujours été stressée de laisser mon chat seul lorsque je devais m’absenter, et j’ai toujours été très reconnaissante envers mes amis qui pouvaient rester avec lui en mon absence. Maintenant, j’aimerais pouvoir offrir cette même tranquillité d’esprit à d’autres propriétaires d’animaux! Je travaille des quarts de 12 heures à l’hôpital, mais je serai toujours à la maison matin et soir pour m’occuper de votre animal, ainsi que pendant mes journées de congé. 🐾❤️ I work 12 hrs shift but I am often home morning, nights and on my days off ! I will definitely prioritize staying with your cat but might have to leave the apartment a few hours at a time I have everything at home to care for a cat, but I am not allowed to have dogs. Im open to keep more than one cat if they are behaving well together

“Maha was absolutely wonderful with my kitten, Leo. This was my first time leaving him with a sitter, so I was a little nervous, but she made the entire experience completely stress free. She sent me photos and updates throughout the day without me even having to ask, which was so reassuring. It honestly felt like I was still there with him. Every picture showed how happy, comfortable, and relaxed he was with her. She was kind, patient, reliable, and clearly genuinely cares about animals. She even stayed a little longer when I was running late getting home, which I really appreciated. I came home to a very happy and relaxed kitten, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I would trust Maha with Leo again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter!”

Pascal was amazing with Regine, our elderly cat, while we were out of town for the weekend. Two visits, meds given on time, lots playtime too - and great photo updates after each visit made our know she was having fun and in great hands. Communicating and booking through Rover with Pascal was super easy. They also held onto our house key as a safety net for Regine - should we have not made it back when planned, they were ready to go check on her again. Such a thoughtful touch. We found Pascal through friends’ recommendation and now totally get why. We’ll definitely be booking Pascal again!
