“Chayse took very good care of my cat Mouchou. She was also Housesitting and kept my place very clean. When I returned, Mouchou was in good spirits which tell me that she was well cared for! I would highly recommend Chayse as a pet/house sitter.”
“Nous ferons certainement appel à Catherine de nouveau. On pouvait facilement constater à notre retour que notre chien l'aimait beaucoup et qu'elle avait été très attentionné avec lui.”
“Viktoria was great! Our dog has separation anxiety, and being away from me is hard for him. Viktoria was patient and very understanding. Overall, really trustworthy experience, especially as it was our first time doing an in-home stay. Thanks again!”
“This was my first time leaving Daisy with a dog sitter, and Harrison surpassed all expectations! He sent photos and communicated throughout the evening to ensure that I felt comfortable and knew my pup was having a great night! Will definitely continue to use his services for all future walks and dog sitting!”
“Exceptional. Heather is detailed, reliable, and completely responsible. I was away for five days without a single worry; she perfectly managed my cats' outdoor routine, making sure they were safe inside each night and getting plenty of attention. I came home to a spotless house and very happy cats. I can’t speak highly enough of her.”
About: I’ve been taking care of pets for longer than I can remember! Working at the Canine Club brought me great experience with caring for over 30 dogs at once, which included feed time, play time, and care. I worked overnights to insure the safety for each and every dog. Caring for animals brings me a new perspective on life, it feels me with so much joy and love! At the moment I work nights on the weekends and I’m not in school currently so I’m free for any of your pet friendly needs! I insure your animals get the loving and care they need while you’re away. I make sure they get to the walks they deserve and every ounce of my attention.
“Lisette is a very vibrant and passionate sitter, and it really shows that she cares about what she does. Missy can be anxious when I leave and Lisette was gentle, attentive and affectionate with her, clearly took the time to make Missy feel comfortable and secure. I returned home to a calm and relaxed cat and a happy dog. I really appreciated the kindness she showed my pets and would gladly book with her again.”
“Madeleine and Fred took to each other immediately, making me feel incredibly at ease with leaving them together for a couple of hours! Madeleine's bubbly, animated, and friendly personality is particularly endearing, and her can-do attitude makes me confident in knowing that Fred is being left in good/capable hands! Would 10/10 rebook!”
“Chantal was wonderful. My pups were well cared for and my home was spotless when I returned. Chantal took the time to set the routine with the dogs and I could tell she understood their needs and quirks and made sure they were comfortable. I would absolutely have Chantal back again!”
About: I offer calm, patient care and take the time to understand each pet's unique personality. I focus on routines, cleanliness, and a safe, low-stress environment so your pet feels comfortable and at home. I’m currently flexible with my schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time, attention, and care to your pet. I’m happy to adapt to your pet’s routine, feeding times, and play needs. My clean, quiet studio apartment is situated near dog parks and is equipped with a cat tree, litter boxes, and safe spaces for your pet to relax I prioritize cleanliness, supervision, and a calm environment to ensure pets feel secure and comfortable.
“Lorenço is the sitter you're looking for! He's been caring for my energetic 4-month-old terrier several days a week and has consistently been reliable, patient and understanding (especially during the ongoing puppy biting phase!) He adapts to Watson's needs and treats him like his own. I always know Watson is in great hands while I'm at work. I trust Lorenço completely and highly recommend him. 15/10!”
About: I have been around dogs my whole life, family, friends and had three growing up. I am used to being around rambunctious dogs of all kinds including puppies and seniors. Looking forward to meeting your fur buddies! I currently work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I am available nights, weekends and holidays. I will not be travelling this summer so I have ample time to look after your pets. I have two cats who I look after as if they were my children. I love and care for them in a calm and warm environment.
“Kristy was an absolute delight to connect with. She is reliable and communicative, and she made me feel right at ease with leaving my elderly kitty in her care. I would absolutely recommend her as a cat and house sitter!”
About: I grew up with pets, dogs cats turtles chicks rabbit Guinée pigs ect….i Raised a few puppies and i don’t beleive they should be caged so it’s a condition for me they need to learn to behave like a child No cages. I’m newly retired and I have a Little Dashun 4 years old who follows me everywhere I go. We are very socialised and love to play. I’m very projective of my animal compagnon I care for their safety and well being . Alimentation is the key and excercise off course is so important
“Our lab Jack loved Claudia right from the start and so did we. Her professionalism, punctuality, care and attention are exactly what Jack needed right after a major surgery. Claudia's calm and reassuring demeanor greatly helped our dog who is reactive and needed reassurance and positive vibes. Thank you again!”

Mehak was wonderful dogsitter for our 17 year old Heidi! Mehak was great with her, taking her for several walks each day, as well as playing and just chilling with her. She sent us daily updates with photos over the 10 days she took care of Heidi. Mehak was also very respectful of our home, bringing her own food, cleaning up, and leaving the house spotless. Wish she wasn't moving, otherwise we would have zero reservation about using Meehak again!
Lisette is a very vibrant and passionate sitter, and it really shows that she cares about what she does. Missy can be anxious when I leave and Lisette was gentle, attentive and affectionate with her, clearly took the time to make Missy feel comfortable and secure. I returned home to a calm and relaxed cat and a happy dog. I really appreciated the kindness she showed my pets and would gladly book with her again.
I highly recommend him as a pet sitter! He stayed with our dog and two cats for 3 days and took excellent care of them. Our dog has separation anxiety, so we were nervous about leaving him, but he quickly made him feel comfortable and well cared for. He kept us updated throughout the stay, gave all of our pets plenty of attention and love, and made us feel at ease while we were away. We’re very grateful for the care he provided and would happily recommend him to others.
Vladyslava was amazing! She stayed at our home for a week to watch our dog and cat. Our dog, Boba, is a very anxious pup, so it did take some time for her to adjust, but Vladyslava took the time to work with Boba and had many options to work with her. Boba did come around and had a great time going for walks and hanging out in the sunshine. Vladyslava left the home very clean and clearly respected our space. We will definitely have Vladyslava back again to watch our furbabies.
Marie était une superbe gardienne de ma chatte Mouchou! Elle a prit bien soin de mon appartement car elle faisait également du «housesitting» pour moi c’était super propre à mon retour! J’ai reçu des messages régulièrement de la part de Marie durant mon voyage ce qui me rassurait beaucoup. Je n’hésiterai pas de la contacter pour mon prochain voyage. :)
Megan is absolutely wonderful. We left our rescue who is not the easiest to care for with her over the holidays and felt completely at ease knowing she was experienced with reactive dogs. She sent us tons of photos every day, and left our apartment spotless. Would recommend her to anyone, she is a true gem. She was also flexible and able to stay longer when our flight home got canceled. So happy to have found her and will be booking her again without hesitation!
Sarah is a responsive and responsible sitter. We had flight cancellations that prevented us from making it home on time, and she graciously offered to extend the duration of her visits so we could rest assure our cats were OK. THANK YOU Sarah for making a stressful situation much less stressful! Our cats were happy and the apartment was as we left it!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Montréal-Ouest on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 1,140 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Montréal-Ouest. Enter your postal code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Montréal-Ouest maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Garbage & recycling: Taking garbage bins to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Montréal-Ouest walking routes, the location of your favourite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
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-Ouest 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!
You can find what you need to review a sitter on their profile before booking with them. Each sitters’s profile on Rover shows verified reviews, identity check, and ratings to give a glimpse of how their previous visits went. You can also use the Meet & Greet to walk through your home, identifying which areas, like your bedroom, are off-limits or not. Requesting details of your home security through the app can also be a good way to have your sitter keep you updated about your home.
If you have security cameras or doorbells, Rover asks that you disclose them to sitters before you book.
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.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a veterinary professional or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means Rover Support will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 87% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
