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: I have been taking care of animals every since I was very young. I have always had cats present in my home. I have been walking dogs every since I was 10. It was always the highlight of my day. I love taking care of dogs, and have been pet sitting friends dogs for years now. Very well experienced pet sitter and dog walker. I currently work a hybride full time-job. I have a lot of flexibility and can take them on a walk or care for them at any time of the day. I have a fenced yard, and currently have a very friendly cat living at my home. I love spending time with pets, playing with them or taking them on walks
About: Hi! I’m Leanne — a caring, responsible, and trusted pet sitter offering a live-in pet sitting service. I’d love the opportunity to care for your pets and home while you’re away! 💕 My service is especially well-suited for pets who: - Experience stress when left alone for extended periods - Need frequent bathroom breaks - Are very social or enjoy constant company - Have special routines or additional care needs ⏰ Your Pet’s Routine Comes First I understand how important consistency is for animals. Whether your pet has specific feeding times, exercise routines, bedtime habits, or medication schedules, I make every effort to follow their routine as closely as possible. Your instructions become my priority, so your pets can feel comfortable and settled while you’re away. 🏡 Caring for Your Home Because I’m on the property for the majority of the time, your home receives an added level of attention while you’re away. Most importantly, I treat your home with the same respect and care I would want for my own. ❤️ A Lifetime of Caring for Animals Animals have always been an important part of my life. My wonderful cat, Archie, taught me how to carefully administer medication and, more importantly, how to become highly attuned to an animal’s needs through body language and non-verbal communication. I had a beloved frog named Fern who lived an incredible 24 years as well. These experiences have given me a deep appreciation for how different every animal can be — and how important it is to understand and respect their individual personalities, needs, and routines. 📸 Communication & Peace of Mind While you’re away, I’ll keep you updated with regular photos and messages so you can see how your pets are doing. I’m also always available by phone or text if you have any questions or simply want to check in (as many times as you want!) Your pets deserve to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away — and that’s exactly what I aim to provide ❤️ I look forward to meeting you and your pet(s)! - **I’m only able to provide house-sitting services in smoke-free homes. Thank you for understanding! **large dog breeds must be able to walk well on leash - I can handle big dogs but not REACTIVE big dogs 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: With over 25 years of experience caring for cats, I understand that every cat has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. My goal is to make sure your cat feels safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away in the comfort of their own home. I’m also a lifelong cat lover and proud rescue mom to four rescue cats of my own. For the past 15 years, I’ve been actively involved in cat rescue. This includes independently doing Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) in my community, socializing feral and fearful cats, working with numerous local rescues, and helping find safe, loving placements for cats in need. I’m especially comfortable caring for senior cats and very shy or fearful cats. I understand that some cats need extra patience and time before they feel comfortable with a new person. I never force interaction. I let each cat set the pace and work to earn their trust. I’m also comfortable administering medications to cats, following your instructions carefully and making sure your cat receives the care they need while you’re away. 🐱 What Your Drop-In Visit Includes During each visit, I will make sure your cat’s needs are completely taken care of, including: ● 🥣 Fresh food and daily feeding according to your cat’s routine ● 💧 Fresh water every day ● 🧹 Daily litter box cleaning ● 💊 Medication administration, when required ● 🧼 Cleaning up after your cat and keeping their area tidy ● ❤️ Attention, affection and companionship, according to your cat’s personality ● 📸 Photos and updates from every visit, so you can see your furry family member is happy and doing well ● 👀 A general check-in on your cat, making sure they appear comfortable and that everything is as it should be Whether your cat is affectionate and social, independent, elderly, nervous, or hiding under the bed, I have experience meeting them where they are. After more than two decades of caring for cats — and 15 years of helping cats who needed someone to advocate for them — I know how important it is to leave your beloved pet with someone you can trust. You can go away knowing your cat is receiving experienced, compassionate and personalized care in the comfort of their own home. 🐾❤️ I currently work part-time, which gives me lots of availability for cat visits. I am happy to work around your schedule and your cat's routine. Your cat’s safety is my top priority! During every visit, I make sure doors and windows are secure and your cat stays safely inside the home. Even if outdoor time is part of their usual routine, I will not allow them outside while you’re away. Better safe than sorry is my motto!
About: I’ve been a pet owner for most of my life and understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets. I’ve cared for my two cats for the past nine years and also previously had a dog, so I’m comfortable with both cats and dogs and understand their different needs and personalities. What sets me apart is that I’m patient, attentive, and dependable. I take the time to follow each pet’s normal routine and their owner’s instructions rather than assuming every animal needs the same type of care. Whether that means walks, feeding, playtime, cleaning litter boxes, or simply keeping a pet company while their owner is away, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to easily fit pet care into my daily and weekly routine. I can plan my day around scheduled visits, walks, feeding times, or check-ins and make sure each pet gets the time and attention they need. I’m also available for both regular weekly care and occasional care when owners are away or need some extra help. I understand that every pet has their own routine and personality, so I make it a priority to follow the owner’s instructions carefully and keep things as familiar and comfortable as possible. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of both their space and their pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, litter box care, and any other instructions provided. Safety is always a priority. I pay close attention to doors, leashes, feeding instructions, and anything else that could affect a pet’s well-being. I also understand that some pets need time to warm up to someone new, so I’m patient and allow them to approach me at their own pace. My goal is for owners to feel comfortable knowing their pet and home are being treated with care and respect while they’re away.
“First of all, I highly recommend Srivalli as your cat sitter! She took care of our cat Vader for 18 days and we felt such at peace to see how caring she was with him. Constant pictures and videos every day, which we loved receiving and follow our cat's progress to a new environment. Her cat is wonderful and sweet and Vader and her got along so well together! We are happy to have found a cat sitter in the region that we can trust!”
“Melissa did a great job looking after Mona while I was away for a few days, looking forward to having her look after my cat again, hopefully this time Mona is not too skidish haha.”

About: EN/FR Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I've been around dogs of many different breeds, both growing up and through pet sitting, including Pit Bulls, Chihuahuas, Huskies, German Shepherds, Miniature Shih Tzus, Beagles, Dachshunds, and many more. Over the past three years, my partner and I have completed numerous house and pet sits while traveling around the world. This experience has given us the opportunity to care for dogs and cats with a wide range of personalities, routines, and individual needs in many different environments. House sitting has now become a full-time lifestyle for us. I am also comfortable administering certain medications (depending on the method of administration) and place great importance on respecting each pet's routine so they feel safe, relaxed, and loved while you're away. --------------------- Je suis entourée d'animaux depuis aussi longtemps que ma mémoire me le permet. J'ai eu des chiens de plusieurs races dans mon entourage, à la maison ainsi qu'en garde, notamment des Pitbulls, Chihuahuas, Huskys, Bergers allemands, Shih Tzus miniatures, Beagles, Teckels et beaucoup plus. Au cours des trois dernières années, mon conjoint et moi avons réalisé de nombreux gardiennages de maisons et d'animaux pendant nos voyages à travers le monde. Cette expérience nous a permis de prendre soin de chiens et de chats aux personnalités, routines et besoins très variés, dans différents environnements. Le housesitting est devenu un mode de vie pour nous maintenant qu'on le fait à temps plein. Je suis également à l'aise d'administrer certains médicaments (selon le type d'administration) et j'accorde une grande importance au respect des habitudes de chaque animal afin qu'il se sente en sécurité, détendu et aimé pendant votre absence. EN/FR We manage our own schedule, which gives us a great deal of flexibility throughout the week. Since we both work remotely and have made house and pet sitting our full-time lifestyle, our daily routine naturally revolves around the needs of the pets in our care. Born and raised in Montreal, we've been together for over 10 years. Our years of house sitting have taught us how to quickly adapt to new homes, respect each family's routines, stay organized, and handle unexpected situations with a calm approach. When we're not working, we enjoy cooking, spending time outdoors, staying active, watching movies, and continually learning new skills. This balanced lifestyle allows us to provide pets with plenty of companionship, affection, and attentive care while their families are away. --------------------- Nous gérons notre propre horaire, ce qui nous offre une grande flexibilité au quotidien. Nous travaillons tous les deux à distance et avons fait du gardiennage de maisons et d'animaux notre mode de vie à temps plein. Nos journées s'organisent donc naturellement autour des besoins des animaux dont nous prenons soin. Originaires de Montréal et en couple depuis plus de 10 ans, nous sommes habitués à nous adapter rapidement à de nouveaux environnements et à respecter les habitudes de chaque foyer. Notre expérience de plusieurs années en housesitting nous a appris à être organisés et à gérer les imprévus avec calme. Lorsque nous ne travaillons pas, nous aimons cuisiner, profiter du plein air, faire de l'activité physique, regarder des films et continuer à apprendre de nouvelles choses. Cette routine équilibrée nous permet d'offrir une présence attentionnée, beaucoup d'affection et du temps de qualité aux animaux qui nous sont confiés. EN/FR We exclusively offer pet sitting in our clients' homes. We believe pets are happiest and most relaxed when they can remain in their familiar environment, surrounded by the routines and comforts they know. Our priority is to maintain your pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication (when required), and all the little habits that help them feel safe and comfortable. We also treat your home with the same care and respect we would our own. We believe good communication is essential, so we're happy to provide regular updates, photos, and videos while you're away, giving you complete peace of mind. If you have any questions, we'd be happy to answer them and discuss your expectations so you can feel completely confident entrusting us with your home and your pets. --------------------- Nous offrons exclusivement des services de garde à votre domicile. Nous croyons que les animaux sont généralement plus heureux et détendus lorsqu'ils restent dans leur environnement familier, où leurs habitudes et leurs repères sont préservés. Notre priorité est de respecter votre routine autant que possible : heures des repas, promenades, jeux, médication (au besoin), ainsi que toutes les petites habitudes qui contribuent au bien-être de votre compagnon. Nous traitons également votre maison avec le même soin et le même respect que si c'était la nôtre. Nous aimons maintenir une bonne communication avec les propriétaires en donnant des nouvelles régulières, accompagnées de photos ou de vidéos, afin que vous puissiez profiter de votre absence en toute tranquillité. Si vous avez la moindre question, il nous fera plaisir d'y répondre et de discuter de vos attentes afin que vous puissiez faire un choix en toute confiance.
About: I’ve grown up around animals and currently have both a dog and a cat of my own, so caring for pets has always been part of my daily life. I’ve also volunteered with dogs at the SPCA and currently volunteer with cats, helping with feeding, cleaning, socialization, and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m also studying at McGill and hope to become a veterinarian one day, so animal care is something I’m truly passionate about both now and in the future. I am a student at McGill University which gives me some of flexibility for walks, drop-in visits, pet sitting, and spending quality time with your pets. Since I already care for my own dog and cat, pet care is naturally part of my routine. I’m reliable, active, and happy to adapt to your pet’s schedule, whether they need exercise, playtime, feeding, or just some company during the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide care in your home, where pets can stay in a familiar environment and maintain their normal routine. Whether that includes walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or simply keeping them company, I’ll follow your instructions carefully and make sure your pet receives the attention and care they need. I understand that every animal has a unique personality and different needs, so I take the time to get to know each pet and help them feel comfortable and secure. I’m attentive, patient, and committed to creating a safe, positive experience for both pets and their owners. I’ll also keep you updated throughout my visits so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

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.

About: I’ve provided consistent dog care for over five years, including regularly babysitting my dad’s best friend’s dog. I also have experience walking dogs and helping multiple dog parents with daily care needs. I’m comfortable following routines, providing exercise, feeding, and giving dogs plenty of attention and affection. I’m patient, reliable, and make sure every dog feels safe and well cared for. I’m currently a full-time student and usually finish school around 5:30pm on weekdays. I’m available for evening care during the week and fully available on Mondays and weekends for walks, drop-ins, or extended care. I prioritize safety and follow each pet’s routine closely, whether in my home or a client’s home. I’m attentive, respectful of boundaries, and ensure pets are always supervised, comfortable, and well cared for.
About: Pet care experience: "I've worked professionally as a dog walker and groomer at a boarding facility for several years, caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and temperaments. Over 14 years, I've handled everything from high-energy puppies to anxious seniors, including leash training, bathing, nail trims, and medication administration. I'm active, attentive, and treat every dog like my own — with plenty of exercise, playtime, and calm routines. Owners get regular photo updates and can trust their pup is in capable, caring hands I work full-time Monday–Thursday, so I'm available for evening care, overnight boarding, and weekend sitting. Fridays I'm off, and weekends I'm fully available for dogs needing active play, multiple walks, and consistent routines. I can occasionally adjust my schedule with advance notice, but my best availability is Friday–Sunday. I live 100m from a park where dogs get multiple daily walks and active playtime. My dog is extremely friendly, well-behaved, and great with other dogs and cats, she's the perfect calm companion for social pups. I'm experienced with behavioral management, crate training, and keeping anxious or high-energy dogs comfortable. All dogs are leashed outside, and I keep emergency vet info on hand. Your dog's safety, exercise, and comfort are my top priorities.

About: I've grown up around animals my whole life — German Shepherds, an English Staffy, and cats over the years. Right now I have a 10-month-old kitten of my own, so I know the energy (and mischief) young pets bring. I work from home, which means your pet is never left alone during the day. I'm in an apartment with a large grassy area and parks nearby for dog walks, and I'm fully set up for cats. My two kids (3 and 6) are gentle and great with animals. I work from home full-time, so pet care fits naturally into my day rather than around it. I'm here for feeding, walks, play, and check-ins throughout the day and evening, with flexibility on timing. Weekends are open too, and pets are never left alone for long stretches. In my home, pets stay in a calm apartment with a large grassy area and nearby parks for walks. I keep cats and dogs comfortable, watch feeding and litter or bathroom routines, and make sure everyone has their own space. Because I work from home, I can spot anything off early. In a client's home, I follow your routines closely and keep your space exactly as you left it.
About: New to rover? Book your first visit with me and get 20% off ❤️https://www.rover.com/sit/emmac37000 I had an adorable golden doodle growing up as a kid who was my best friend! Since then I’ve helped with taking care of dogs at the humane society walking them and taking them on doggie day out! I make sure every dog gets plenty of mental stimulation, attention, and safe outdoor time. I am comfortable administering medication, following specific diets, and sending adorable photos and messages so you can feel confident while you’re away!! Who doesn’t want to see pictures of their four legged family member 🐶 I am available during lunches Wednesdays and Fridays, and evenings every day of the week. On weekends my schedule is completely free! I am happy to adjust to your schedule and figure out a time that works best for you! I have a studio apartment where I can pet sit overnight but there’s lots of greenspace near me and the apartment building is very pet friendly. Lots of people have furry friends here :)

About: What sets me apart is the calm, attentive environment I provide. I grew up in a home that regularly rescued and fostered dogs, so caring for different personalities, energy levels, and behavioral needs has always been part of my life. We always had at least two dogs in the house at a time, and I’ve continued that into adulthood with my own rescues - Rose, who I’ve had since she was 1 (now 14), and Baby, who has been with me for 6 years. I’m often told I have a calm, easy energy that dogs naturally trust. I’m especially patient and understanding with anxious dogs and behavioral sensitivities, while still creating a relaxed and stable environment. I work from home, so dogs are never left unsupervised and always have consistent attention, care, and companionship throughout the day. My home is cozy, calm, and dog-focused, with a large fenced backyard for fetch, sunbathing, and safe outdoor time. I treat every dog like they’re my own and prioritize making them feel secure, comfortable, and cared for while they’re with me. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I work from home and already structure my days around caring for animals. My own dogs are a huge part of my everyday life, so walks, outdoor time, feeding schedules, play, cuddles, and supervision are already built into my routine. I’m home often throughout the day, which allows me to give pets consistent attention, companionship, and care rather than leaving them alone for long periods. I genuinely enjoy creating a calm, cozy environment where animals can relax, feel safe, and settle into a comfortable rhythm. Weekly, I prioritize keeping a clean and pet-friendly home and making sure animals get both mental stimulation and downtime depending on their personality and needs. Whether a pet is energetic and playful or more anxious and reserved, I’m attentive to helping them feel comfortable and cared for while they’re with me. Safety is always my top priority when caring for dogs in my home. I have two friendly rescue dogs who are calm, social, and well accustomed to sharing space with other animals. I always prioritize slow, respectful introductions and pay close attention to each dog’s comfort level, personality, and boundaries. I provide a calm, structured environment where dogs are supervised closely and never left unattended outdoors. My home is ground level and has a large fenced backyard for safe outdoor time, fetch, bathroom breaks, and relaxing in the sun, and all yard time is monitored. Inside the home, I use tools like baby gates when needed to create separate spaces for rest, decompression, feeding, or quieter introductions. Because I work from home, I’m present throughout the day to supervise interactions, maintain routines, and make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. My goal is always to create a cozy, low-stress environment where dogs can settle in comfortably and feel at home.
About: I’ve been taking in strays and fostering furry misfits since I was barely taller than a Labrador! From bottle-feeding kittens to winning over the grumpiest rescue dogs, caring for animals has always been second nature to me. I’m home full-time, which means your pet gets my undivided attention : walks, playtime, belly rubs, and all the love they can get! So don’t you worry! Whether it’s in my home or yours, I aim to make pets feel like they’re on a cozy vacation. At my place, they’ll get a comfy spot to snooze, plenty of playtime, and a calm, loving environment (plus treats if allowed!). In your home, I keep their routine steady—meals on time, walks as usual, and lots of cuddles to keep tails wagging and whiskers twitching. I treat every pet like they’re my own—because for a little while, they kind of are!
About: I've had my own dog for over 10 years, she's not just a pet, she's family. Trough every stage of her life, I've learned how to care for dogs with patience, love and attention to detail. I've also have experience of working in a dog shelter as a volunteer, where I learned how to handle nervous, energetic or shy dogs. I'll make sure your dog feels safe, loved and happy. I am available most days and times, including weekdays, weekends and even last-minute booking. Whether your pet needs early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening cuddle time, I'm happy to adjust to your routine I treat every pet as if they were my own, and their safety and comfort always come first. I always stay alert and I'll be happy to follow any specific instructions you provide, from feeding schedules to medications and leash preferences. You can trust that your pet will be in calm, capable and loving hands with me.
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.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Pointe-Claire
Sondos took wonderful care of my cat while I was away. She came to my house as scheduled and followed all my instructions perfectly. I really appreciated the updates and photos she sent after every visit — it was so reassuring to see my cat happy and relaxed.

Tout s’est très bien passé avec Abigail! Elle a pris bien soin de notre chatte qui a beaucoup apprécié ses visites, et avec qui elle a developpé une belle complicité. Nous avons été tout de suite en confiance. La communication a été facile. Nous recommandons avec enthousiasme les services d’Abigail. Il est certain que nous la solliciterons lors de nos prochains déplacements!
