About: I love dogs and I love walking! I currently have an adorable 3 years old golden retriever, who can accompany me on walks as well as keep company to any dog while boarding. I am currently available early morning and after 4:30pm on weekdays and anytime during the weekend. If required, I can do very early walks (5am) as well as very late (11pm). I make sure to follow the owner’s rules and advices. I also make sure the dog is having fun in a safe space while being comfortable and happy.

About: I have always been a dog lover and have had poodles, labs and golden retrievers. I know how to care for your pup so you won't have to worry about a thing. I work from home with a flexible schedule so I can walk your pet 3 times a day, feed them adjusting to their regular schedule, and make sure they get the potty breaks they need. I have a fenced backyard where your pet is free to play anytime they feel like being outside. My own chocolate lab, Mia, will be a constant playmate!

About: Hi! I am a lifelong animal lover and have been entrusted with many animals of all types over the years! Whether it was a collection of cats, an energetic dog, or even less common pets like geckos, I love getting to know new animals! I’m comfortable providing medication if needed, and I’ve got lots of energy for walks and playing! I will do my best to care for your pet the way you would care for your own pet: with care, love, kindness, gentility, and patience. Let me make sure your furriest family member is safe and loved when you are away. Currently my schedule is very open and I am available full time to care for your furry friends. I have a family of my own, so as much notice as possible is always appreciated, but I’ll always do my best to be available for you. I’m familiar with sneaky animals who like to escape. My goal is to ensure that your animals are safe when they are in my care. If your animals have any special tricks, just let me know so that I can ensure to be prepared!

“Mckenzie and Sami took care of my two cats for three weeks while I was on vacation. They were amazing!! They sent photos after every visit! My cats, who are usually very shy, went right up to them. I came home to two cats in great shape, and I didn’t get the impression they’d missed me at all 🤣 Finally, when we got back, we found a nice note from them and photos of my cats 🥰, and they had cleaned up the areas where the cats spend their time. I highly recommend them, they’re really great!”

About: I have been caring for dogs since a very young age, and over the years I have gained valuable experience understanding their needs and personalities. I always strive to provide the best care possible, ensuring that every dog feels safe, comfortable, and happy. Along with meeting their daily needs, I make sure to give them plenty of attention, affection, love, and cuddles so they feel right at home. 🐾 I currently work part-time and attend school, which gives me flexibility to drop in, check on your pup, take them for a walk, or simply spend some quality time with them. I'm available during mornings (including early mornings), afternoons, and evenings. During the summer, I have even greater availability since I'm off school and can dedicate more time to caring for your furry friend! I have a yard and am fortunate to have both a forest and a dog park nearby, which are perfect for long walks and games of fetch. I enjoy keeping dogs active through fun activities such as running, playtime, and enrichment exercises. Every dog is different, some love to run and play, while others prefer leisurely walks and plenty of time to sniff and explore. I always adapt to each dog's pace and needs, allowing them to enjoy their walks and get their daily "news" from all the interesting scents along the way.

About: Cats are more my specialty as I've had them in my life since I was 8 years old, but I also have experience with dogs through dog sitting and walking services. My current availability is quite free and open to petsit, homesit, walk, and play with your beloved cat or dog weekly on an as needed basis! I have 2 cats that are not the mostly friendly to cats or dogs, so I do not offer boarding or daycare services at this time. I'm open to home sitting services to care for your pets needs in the comfort of their own homes.

“Our kitties get the best care with Jay. From the photos, I see they get plenty of love and affection. The best photos we have of our cats, she took. I can also tell when we get home that the cats are relaxed and comfortable as well. The days of them being angry that we left them in someone else’s care are over, thank goodness. I’m so grateful for this service and especially for the love special attention Jay gives on every single visit! 🙏💕✨”

About: I worked in a pet hotel for over 10 years. I've been called a dog whisperer as I'm able to help shy and scared dogs come out of their shells. I have loved dogs for as long as I can remember, I would bring strays home when I was very young and work in dog rescue. I'm currently from home so I have a very flexible schedule and can work around what my client needs at the time they need catsitting. I have a fenced in yard and my own fur child to keep your pet company. I have crates and seperate spaces your dog can feel comfortable in if they would not like to sleep in the master bedroom with me and my dog. I can set up a playpen area anywhere they're comfortable and put their bed/crate in a number of different locations depending on what they're used to/more comfortable with.

About: From Chihuahuas and Coton de Tuléars to powerful Boerboels, I’ve cared for nearly 10 dogs throughout my life. Trainer-guided experience, dependable care, and plenty of tail wags guaranteed! My schedule is flexible enough that I can usually fit in a walk, some playtime, or a visit with your furry family member. Spending time with dogs is honestly one of the best parts of my day! Having cared for dogs ranging from tiny Chihuahuas and Coton de Tuléars to German Shepherd to giant Boerboels, I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. Expect plenty of walks, belly rubs, playtime (and treats if approved 😄)! I’ll follow your routine closely, respect your home, and make sure your dog gets lots of love while you’re away. Your pup’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities, and I’ll keep you updated with photos so you can relax knowing they’re in great hands.

About: I have taken care of dogs, bunnies, cats, for 10+ years. My strength has been in caring for animals with anxiety, nervousness, or shyness, and bringing them comfort and a positive environment. I am very good at reinforcing training for the young ones to provide them consistency and stability in their routine. I am gifted in reading animals and having a lot of patience, and a great passion for them. This allows me to connect with them really effectively and be able to create a safe and loving experience for your fur babies! Pet care fits really naturally into my routine. I work full‑time as an operations manager from home, which gives me a lot of flexibility during the day for walks, check‑ins, playtime, and just being present. I’m not rushing in and out between commitments—your pet gets real attention worked into my day, not squeezed in as an afterthought. I used to dog sit in my own home and absolutely loved it, but after moving, my landlord no longer allows pets. Continuing to care for animals in clients’ homes is my way of keeping that connection I genuinely miss. Spending time with pets is something I want to do, not just something I’m fitting in. Because my schedule is flexible, I can adapt to your pet’s needs—whether that’s midday walks, medication timing, extra companionship during the workday, or sticking closely to an established routine. It ends up feeling very natural and consistent for them, which I know makes a big difference. For me, pet care is a grounding, enjoyable part of my week—and for your pet, it means calm, reliable care from someone who truly enjoys being there! When I care for pets in your home, I treat it like it’s their space and their routine, not just a place I’m visiting. I stick closely to your instructions—feeding schedules, walk times, meds, house rules—so everything feels as normal as possible for them. I make sure they get plenty of attention, play, and comfort, whether that means active time or just being a calm, reassuring presence nearby. I’m respectful of your home, keep things clean and tidy, and always prioritize safety (doors secure, leashes on, food stored properly). I also love sending updates and photos so you can see how your pet is doing and feel totally at ease while you’re away. My goal is simple: your pet feels relaxed and well cared for, and you come home to a happy animal and a home just the way you left it.

About: (French version at the end) Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember, African Grey parrots, iguanas, cats, dogs, rabbits, rats, and so many more. Caring for them isn’t just something I do; it’s who I am. I’m a certified veterinary technician and a future veterinarian, and I’ve had the privilege of helping pets through every stage of life. I’m experienced with senior pets, giving injectables, administering medications, and supporting animals with chronic illnesses like renal failure. I’ve also been by many families sides during end-of-life care, always offering gentleness, patience, and respect. Your pet will be cherished, comforted, and treated with the same love and devotion I give to my own. ❤️ * Please note that I currently work Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays 9:00 AM to 8:00 PM, so kindly keep this schedule in mind when making a booking. — Les animaux font partie de ma vie depuis aussi longtemps que je me souvienne : perroquets gris d’Afrique, iguanes, chats, chiens, lapins, rats et bien d’autres encore. Prendre soin d’eux n’est pas seulement quelque chose que je fais, c’est une partie intégrante de qui je suis. Je suis technicienne en santé animale certifiée et future vétérinaire, et j’ai eu le privilège d’accompagner des animaux à chaque étape de leur vie. J’ai de l’expérience avec les animaux seniors, l’administration d’injections, les traitements médicamenteux, ainsi que le soutien des animaux atteints de maladies chroniques comme l’insuffisance rénale. J’ai aussi été présente auprès de nombreuses familles durant les soins de fin de vie, toujours avec douceur, patience et respect. Votre compagnon sera chéri, réconforté et traité avec la même affection et la même attention que j’offre aux miens. ❤️ Pet care fits naturally into my routine. As a veterinary technician, caring for animals is part of my everyday life, both at work and at home with my own pets. I work only three days a week during daytime hours, which leaves me fully available on evenings and weekends for house sitting, drop-ins, and additional care. This balance allows me to provide consistent, reliable, and attentive care to every animal I look after. I also offer flexible house sitting. Because I have pets of my own, I may not stay overnight for long consecutive periods, but I’m happy to provide a mix of drop-in visits and a few overnight stays to best suit your pet’s needs. — Les soins aux animaux s’intègrent naturellement à ma routine. En tant que technicienne en santé animale, prendre soin des animaux fait partie de mon quotidien, autant au travail qu’à la maison avec mes propres compagnons. Je travaille seulement quatre jours par semaine, durant les heures de jour, ce qui me laisse entièrement disponible en soirée et les week-ends pour le gardiennage, les visites et les soins supplémentaires. Cet équilibre me permet d’offrir des soins constants, fiables et attentifs à chaque animal dont je m’occupe. J’offre également un service de garde à domicile flexible. Ayant moi-même des animaux, je ne peux pas toujours rester plusieurs nuits consécutives, mais je peux proposer une combinaison de visites à domicile et de quelques nuitées selon les besoins de votre animal. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I follow a calm, structured, and safety-focused routine shaped by my experience. In a client’s home, I maintain your pet’s normal schedule as closely as possible, feeding times, walks, litter box care, enrichment, medications, and quiet companionship. I stay attentive to behaviour, appetite, hydration, and overall comfort, and I always keep the home tidy and respectful. If your pet requires medications or injectables, I administer them safely and confidently. Most importantly, I care for every animal with the same attention, patience, and love that I give to my own pets. My goal is to ensure your pet feels safe, understood, and genuinely cared for while giving you complete peace of mind. — Que je prenne soin des animaux chez moi ou au domicile d’un client, je suis une routine calme, structurée et axée sur la sécurité, guidée par mon expérience professionnelle. Dans la maison du client, je respecte autant que possible l’horaire habituel de votre animal : heures de repas, promenades, entretien de la litière, jeux d’enrichissement, médication et moments de compagnie tranquille. Je reste attentive à son comportement, son appétit, son hydratation et son confort général, tout en gardant la maison propre et respectée. Si votre animal a besoin de médicaments ou d’injections, je les administre de façon sécuritaire et confiante. Surtout, je traite chaque animal avec la même attention, patience et affection que j’offre aux miens. Mon objectif est qu’il se sente en sécurité, compris et véritablement choyé, tout en vous offrant une tranquillité d’esprit totale.

We couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of our beloved cat (Shazdeh)! ❤️ Sabrina was absolutely wonderful from start to finish. She is incredibly kind, caring, trustworthy, and genuinely loves animals. She went above and beyond to make sure Shazdeh was happy, comfortable, and well cared for while we were away. Her regular updates, adorable photos, and videos gave us complete peace of mind throughout our trip. It was heartwarming to see the special bond she developed with Shazdeh. Sabrina truly exceeded our expectations, and we are so grateful for her kindness and dedication. We would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pet like family. We will definitely book with her again! Thank you so much, Sabrina! ❤️🐾

Sabrina was excellent with my dog. My dog is anxious and takes medication for epilepsy. Sabrina was punctual, took her time to bond with my dog and make her feel comfortable. She came 3 times for me over a span of 2 days and my dog is very happy and comfortable with her. Her reports are thorough, detailed and she provided lots of pictites of my happy pup! Highly recommend.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Pincourt

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Pincourt is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $45 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 1,787 sitters on Rover for Pet Sitting in Pincourt. About 84% of Pincourt 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 Pincourt 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:

  • 83% 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.
