About: Hi, I'm Leanne and I would love to take care of your pet(s) while you're away! I'm an animal lover who understands that pets are no less than family. Whether they need a walk, playtime or just some love and affection, I'll make sure to treat them as if they were my own! I'm patient, reliable and with many years of experience caring for dogs, cats and reptiles, you can be assured that my priority is always making your pet feel safe, happy and comfortable while you're away. Rest assured that no matter the length of my visit, I stay with your pet the entire time. I had a wonderful cat, Archie, who taught me how to properly and carefully administer medication and become very attuned to animals needs through body language and non-verbal communication. My family has always had bull breed dogs that I loved and cared for. I also had a frog, Fern, who lived a long and healthy life and reached 24 years old! I'll keep you updated with messages and photos, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and safe. I'm always a phone call or text away. I look forward to meeting you and your pet(s)! HOUSE SITTING HOURS - (starting after 7pm and ending before 9am) 12 hours, over night at your home * additional $50 for 24h sits DROP IN VISITS - 30-45 mins WALKS - 60 mins (or depending on your dog's needs) I currently work remotely, so have plenty of time to work my schedule around your pets. I am available 7 days week, day and night. I do not currently offer boarding in my home, however safety is my top priority when caring for your animals at your house. I make sure to follow your rules and keep your animals schedule as close to what they are accustomed to.

About: Growing up in a pet-loving home, I found joy in caring for various animals. My family has 2 dogs, 3 cats and 2 bunnies. I am the number 1 babysitter for all of my family. I always stay in communication with the dogs owner by sending updates with pictures and videos. Pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily routine, as I prioritize their well-being. When I visit my family, I happily bring my dog for walks or to the dog park. Afterwards, I indulge in delightful moments with the cats, showering them with affection through gentle scratches. I provide pet care at home or in my client's home by ensuring their well-being. From feeding to playtime and exercise, I prioritize their happiness and health, fostering a loving environment for these cherished companions.

About: I grew up with dogs (I currently have two large breed dogs) and I’ve also been a volunteer at a dog adoption center for most of my life. I have lots of experience with dogs of various ages, temperaments, and breeds. I have also volunteered at an animal hospital and have assisted with shelter vet visits. I am currently a Cegep student studying to be a veterinary technician so I have lots of availability to walk and play with your dogs ! Since dogs all have different needs and behaviours I will do my best to adapt to whatever will make your dog happy ! I will follow usual schedules in order to keep your dog comfortable and will provide lots of love and care as if they were my own :)!

About: By Sabrina & Karim 👫🏻 With over 10 years of experience in pet sitting, we offer a warm, loving environment dedicated to your pet’s well-being, where they will truly feel at home! We have no pets or kids and work from home, so they won't be left alone. What sets us apart? ✅ Peace of mind while you are away : Every pet is unique, and I adapt my care to their habits, temperament, and specific needs. I also provide updates and pictures. ✅ Our love for pets: We grew up around all kinds of pets (dogs, cats, rabbits, parrots). We understand pets and make sure they feel their best. ✅ All the attention they need: I work mostly from home, and my husband is also very often at home. He loves pets as much as I do —and pets love us! ✅ Light medical care: Administration of medication, light post-operative care, or special monitoring when needed. ✅ A kind and reassuring approach: Patience, gentleness, and respect for each pet’s pace so they feel safe and relaxed. In our home, your companion enjoys a warm environment, attentive presence, and moments of bonding for a calm and stress-free stay. You can leave with peace of mind, knowing your pet is in very good hands! 🐾 I work from home and tend to be more of a homebody in the evenings and on weekends.My husband is also often home. We enjoy going for walks and we are generally quite active. In our home: 🏡 A safe and comfortable space: Our home offers a calm and welcoming environment, with dedicated areas for rest and play. The surrounding gardens allow dogs to exercise safely. 🐾 Personalized care: We take into account each pet’s habits (feeding schedule, walks, specific needs) so they feel right at home. ❤️ Attentive and caring presence: Constant supervision, cuddles for those who enjoy them, and respect for each companion’s personality.

About: As a 27-year-old full-time employee downtown, life can get a bit boring! One of my favourite things to do is bonding with animals. Every animal's specific personality leaves its mark on my heart. My services include dog walking, dog/cat/fish pet sitting, and overnight care. If your pet is shy, a cuddler, or thinks humans are beneath them, I am there to fit into their life and make sure you get updates to ensure your mind is at ease. I'm very comfortable with reactive dogs, making sure they don't chomp on anything they are not supposed to while on their walks, keeping them safe, and also sometimes sprinting with them when the weather permits! :) I'm happy to provide references, and very excited to meet your fur babies! I have a very relaxed job and so work from home most of the time, with a flexible work schedule that I mostly set myself (the rest of it is set by deadlines!) I enjoy being given a purpose to change my routine, so regardless of early riser/late sleeper, your pet and I can hang out when it is comfortable for them. My biggest rule is that I never want to stress your pets out more than they are already stressed out - they miss you already, why would we relocate them! I ask that you provide me with their usual routine and keep to it to ensure that your pet is comfortable. With cats and dogs, I make sure to keep a comfortable distance and let them smell and see me exist around them for a while before I attempt any contact. All we need is safety with animals, and it is my utmost priority :)

About: Bonjour! Je m’appelle Roxanne et je suis entourée de chiens depuis plusieurs années. Mon propre chien, Loki, a maintenant 3 ans et, disons-le, il m’a obligée à en apprendre beaucoup sur les soins, l’éducation et la gestion des cocos à quatre pattes! Même s’il n’est pas toujours le plus brillant, j’ai réussi à lui enseigner les commandes de base ainsi que quelques tours supplémentaires. Je le promène deux fois par jour : une fois en après-midi et une autre en soirée avant le coucher. Je travaille à temps partiel de 7 h à 15 h 30, ce qui me permet d’offrir mes services aux propriétaires qui travaillent de soir ou de nuit. Que ce soit pour une promenade occasionnelle ou un besoin régulier, n’hésitez pas à me contacter. I also speak English if needed! Just send me a message :) **My schedule changes each week, I’ll do my best to accommodate you. Mon horaire chaque chaque semaine, je vais faire de mon mieux pour vous accommoder.** Mes disponibilités varient selon les semaines! Je travaille une fin de semaine sur deux ainsi que certains jours de semaine. J’adore marcher, peu importe la météo : soleil, pluie ou neige, ça ne me fait pas peur! Je peux m’occuper de certaines médications, brossage, pratiques de “tricks” ainsi que simplement brûler leur énergie. J’ai aussi une voiture ainsi que des ceintures de sécurité pour chien!

About: I have owned and fostered dogs. I currently own a one year old Labernese (Lab and Bernese Mountain Dog mix) who has the look of a lab but the gentle and chill nature of a Bernese. She is anxious with humans but loves other dogs and plays well with little and big dogs alike. I also own a puppy named Sandy. She is 5 months now (July 2026) and is used to all kinds of dogs. Sandy is a sweetheart and loves to play. She has been socialized with dogs and humans since we got her so she gets along with everyone. I love to pack walk and I provide a lot of structure for dog guests to feel comfortable and secure. I work from home and my husband is a stay at home dad. With our kids in school all week we have tons of time to snuggle and play with doggies throughout the day. I have a huge fenced in yard. I live in a large bungalow with lots of room for dogs to hangout and play. We also have a well divided home that allows us to section areas for dogs that are more shy or prefer to be alone then to be around other pups. I work from home as a Strategy Manager with a very flexible schedule. Doggies are welcome in my office and I have set up a spot right by my desk. When we need a break I live in a lovely suburban area close to the Lakeshore and great walking paths. I ask all my clients for their current pet routines in order to stick to that as closely as possible. I believe in trust and consistency and of course....so much love!

About: With eight years of experience caring for friends' and family's dogs, along with a lifetime of having my own dogs, I bring a deep understanding and love for pets. I've also fostered cats and other animals, providing a well-rounded approach to animal care. I ensure pets of all ages receive the best attention and offer personalized care, tailoring activities to each pet's needs. I am known for my reliability and trustworthiness. Plus, my flexible scheduling accommodates both short-notice and regular appointments. During the summers, when I have full-time availability, pet care becomes my primary focus. I dedicate my days to ensuring pets receive the attention, exercise, and care they need to thrive. With flexible scheduling and ample time on my hands, I can accommodate various needs and preferences, from extended walks to extra playtime sessions. As a full-time student during the fall and winter, my availability changes. Despite academic commitments, I prioritize pet care during these times, ensuring that pets continue to receive the same level of attention and affection. Evenings are perfect for leisurely walks and quality bonding time, while weekends allow for more extended adventures and outings. Rest assured, my dedication to reliable and trustworthy pet care remains unwavering throughout the year, adapting seamlessly to accommodate both academic and pet care responsibilities. When caring for pets in clients' homes, I prioritize creating a comfortable and familiar environment for their beloved companions. I begin by familiarizing myself with the pet's routine, preferences, and any specific instructions provided by the owner. This ensures a seamless transition and minimizes stress for the pet. Throughout my time in the client's home, I maintain open communication with the owner, providing regular updates and photos to keep them informed and reassured. I adhere closely to the pet's feeding schedule, ensuring they receive proper nutrition and any necessary medications as instructed. Daily exercise and playtime are integral parts of my care routine, tailored to the pet's age, breed, and energy level. Whether it's a leisurely stroll around the neighborhood or an energetic game of fetch in the backyard, I ensure pets receive the physical activity they need to stay happy and healthy. In addition to physical care, I offer companionship and emotional support, spending quality time bonding with the pet through cuddles, grooming, and positive reinforcement. I respect the client's home and property, maintaining cleanliness and security throughout my stay. Ultimately, my goal is to provide reliable, compassionate, and personalized care that meets the unique needs of each pet and gives owners peace of mind knowing their furry family members are in good hands while they're away.

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: I have always grown up around dogs. I frequently dog sat, and trained neighbors dogs from a young age. My approach is calm and direct while giving dogs the time and space to process, learn, and make their own decisions. I continue to educate myself and I've recently completed an Animal Welfare and Behaviour course. I currently work a M-F, 9-5, job but am available for early morning or evening visits during the week. I like to go for walks daily and when I'm home, I spend lots of time with my cat Chloe. I am very respectful of others belongings. With pets, I ensure that we vary between periods of calm and periods of high energy. I will ask to understand what behaviors are tolerated in your household, and will respect and maintain your boundaries with your pets.

About: I have grown up my entire life with several different kinds of animals and breeds. I’ve had cats, fish, dogs (big and small), and even a hermit crab. I have also taken horseback riding lessons and still ride leisurely when I have the time. I have friends and family who own farms and have asked me to help them around while they have been on vacation, therefore I have been with many different kinds of animals. I am a full time dental hygiene student who would love to find a flexible schedule to work and spend my free time with animals on a regular basis. Feeding my pets, cleaning the cat litter. I’ve had dogs in the past- big and small including a Labrador, Border Collie and a Yorkshire Terrier which I would walk. I’ve also taken care of my family’s two Saint Bernard Dogs while they have gone on vacation.

About: I have volunteered at a veterinary clinic and worked at a doggy daycare where I have learned and had experience handling many different breeds and types of dogs. I am confident in my skills and love being around dogs. I currently own a beagle mix who is about 9 years old and full of energy. He needs lots of exercise, as I'm sure your little one may need as well. So, if your dog needs a little more than a 30-minute walk just let me know. If there is a date or dates that are not available on the calendar but you need someone, please send me a message. I am happy to provide any pictures and/or videos of the walk. If you have any questions please do no hesitate to ask me about anything that may be on your mind. I am taking pets on a case-by-case basis. I am looking for a full-time job but will continue to do this as long as I can. I respect everyone’s home as much as my own. I believe in a clean and safe environment. If you need me to get something from inside I will, if not I will not go past the door (provided that all the pet’s items are nearby).

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Pointe-Claire on Rover is $26.64 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

There are 798 sitters on Rover for Cat Sitting in Pointe-Claire. About 88% of Pointe-Claire 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.

Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 798 sitters in Pointe-Claire, 88% respond to messages in under an hour.

You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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 Pointe-Claire 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.

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 sitter.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 87% 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.
