About: My wife and I both grew up in homes with dogs, so caring for pets has always been a natural part of our lives. We understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and little quirks and we genuinely enjoy getting to know them. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, or simply keeping your pet comfortable while you’re away, we’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention and care. We’re also comfortable with dogs of different ages and needs, from energetic pups to seniors who need a little extra patience. Most importantly, we know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. We’re dependable, attentive, and will treat your pets with the same kindness and respect we give our own. I work from home, which makes it easy to fit pet care into my day. I’m already active with walks and workouts, so including dogs or cats in my routine feels natural. Whether it’s morning, evening, or weekends, I can give pets the consistency and attention they need. I work from home, so pets are never left alone for long. I’m active and make sure dogs get plenty of walks, play, and attention. In your home, I follow routines exactly as you lay them out, keeping pets comfortable in their own space. I create a safe, calm environment where they feel looked after like family.
“We honestly couldn’t have asked for two better people to watch our dogs! Sami and Mackenzie were absolutely amazing from start to finish. Their communication was top-notch, keeping us updated regularly and sending tons of photos throughout our vacation, which gave us complete peace of mind. They followed all of our instructions to a tee and genuinely went above and beyond. It’s clear they’re both wonderful, caring people who truly love animals. They were an absolute pleasure to work with and left our house absolutely impeccable! We can’t recommend Sami and Mackenzie enough. If you’re looking for trustworthy, loving, and reliable pet sitters with fantastic communication, look no further. We would 100% hire them again and absolutely plan to for our next vacation. Thank you both for taking such amazing care of our boys!”


About: Hi, I'm Tristan! I've shared my life with cats, dogs, and hamsters, from playful puppies and kittens to calm senior pets, so I know how to care for animals at every stage of life. I have a natural bond with animals, and I pay close attention to their body language, so I can tell when a pet is nervous, excited, or just needs some quiet time. I treat every pet like my own and keep their routine as familiar as possible. The dog in my profile picture is a rescue from my volunteer work in Portugal last year. She escaped her yard during a thunderstorm and hid at the farm where I was working. She trusted me, and I walked her back to town until we found her home. That's the kind of patience and care your pet will get from me. I'd love to meet you and your pet. Send me a message to set up a meet-and-greet! I live in laval have my own car and work 9-5, im available on weekends and weeknights! I work full time, im available for work in the weeknights or weekends! I have my own car and will travel to you if it is possible for me to still go to my job on time I treat every pet like my own, and I start by learning their routine: feeding times, walk schedule, favorite toys, and any quirks. I keep things as familiar as possible so they feel safe and relaxed. I pay close attention to body language, so I can tell when a pet is nervous, overexcited, or needs quiet time, and I adjust accordingly. On walks, I use a secure leash or harness and stay alert to my surroundings. Inside, I keep doors and windows closed, and I never leave pets unsupervised in a way that could put them at risk. I send regular photo and video updates so owners know how their pet is doing. I'm also always happy to do a meet-and-greet beforehand, so both you and your pet feel comfortable before the first booking. If anything unexpected happens, I stay calm, contact the owner right away, and get the pet to a vet if needed.

“We had a great experience with Samuel! He looked after Pepette and Maasai for an evening, and everything went smoothly. Samuel is friendly, reliable, and caring. We were able to enjoy our evening knowing our two dogs were in good hands. We would happily book with him again and definitely recommend him!”

“Such a pleasant and easy experience with Savannah. Very impressed with her professionalism, positive quiet energy, excellent care for my dog not to mention she left the house spotless. Will hire again. Highly recommend”

About: I grew up with animals in the home and I have over 15 years of pet sitting experience! I also have the energy levels to keep up with even the highest energy dogs. Aside from a few hours during the week, I work from home. I can adjust my schedule for the most part to ensure every pets needs are met. I live in an apartment with plenty of nearby parks to take them to play. My building is very safe when it comes to other animals being well behaved. I also don't take on multiple pets so your pet will receive all the attention it needs. When I'm pet sitting in your home I like to follow a similar routine to what your pet is used to. In terms of eating, playtime, going to the bathroom etc. That way while you're away they feel more comfortable and safe.
“Megan was amazing and super responsive. She sent so many photo updates that really made us feel at ease leaving our dog and home with her! Highly recommended and will definitely have her watch Maxine again. Such a lovely experience. :)”

About: About 5 years ago, my family and I added a new member to our family. My life changed ever since that day. I never knew love for animals could grow this big but here we are. I think every dog deserves this type of love and I am here to provide that. I’m currently working part-time and am not in school so my schedule is VERY flexible and free. I am also willing to make all necessary adjustments to please my clients. ☺️ I have a pup at home, so I am very used to that fur baby lifestyle. All equipment needed is required in my service apart from collars or harnesses due to different sizing for different doggies.
About: I have a soothing and calming energy that dogs feel right away. I enjoy seeing dogs get their exercise and brings me joy to see them being happy. I am currently available during business hours, however I can be flexible as long I have 1-2 days notice to accommodate your request. Weekends can vary. I am currently provding dog walking and dog sitting at your home. Feel free to reach out to me for a meet and greet and for any questions.
“Professional.Reliable.Friendly. Olivia was the best sitter we could ask for. She left our home impeccable and our pups very happy. We could not have asked for more and hope to use her services again in the near future, thank you Olivia !”


“We had a wonderful experience with Celia! She took amazing care of our dog, Maggie, and our cat, Theo, and we felt completely comfortable having her stay in our home. She was attentive, responsible, and reliable, and bonded so well with our pets and our family. She also took great care of our house and left it spotless — honestly, probably even cleaner than we left it! It was such a relief knowing everything was in good hands while we were away. We’d happily recommend Celia to anyone looking for someone they can trust to care for their pets and home. We’ll definitely be booking her again!”

“Hiba was very attentive and caring for Boozer while we were out. She was so accommodating and was understanding about some concerns we had (a very scary experience with another Rover care giver). She put us at ease, and was a pleasure to work with, we would highly recommend her services! Thank you Hiba!”

About: I believe animals are always communicating with us, and I approach pet care by listening first and responding with patience and care. I have 12 years of experience with my own dog and have worked through reactivity, anxiety, fear of noises, and leash pulling using positive reinforcement. I have worked with multiple trainers over the years and have spent a lot of time learning about dog behaviour and psychology, which has shaped how I care for animals today. I pay close attention to body language and subtle cues like freezing, yawning, or disengaging. When a dog seems overwhelmed, I focus on helping them feel safe and settled by creating space, choosing calmer routes or environments, or redirecting them toward something grounding. With shy or nervous dogs, I always let them approach on their own terms and give them the freedom to take breaks or step away when needed. I also believe in balancing physical and mental stimulation. Along with fulfilling walks, I enjoy incorporating enrichment like sniffing games, confidence-building activities, and gentle training. These activities work well for high-energy dogs and can also help more nervous or shy dogs feel comfortable and confident. I have experience caring for large and small dogs, puppies, and senior dogs, as well as administering medication including pills, liquids, topical treatments, and ear drops. I am very comfortable following vet instructions and care routines, and I tend to be very organized and attentive to detail. Above all, I genuinely care about each animal’s wellbeing and individuality. I use patience, positive reinforcement, and observation as the foundation of my care, and I always do my best to make sure every pet feels safe, understood, and cared for. I’m currently a work-from-home professional so I am quite flexible time and space wise. I am available at virtually any time and can readily offer overnight care in your home while you’re away. With a persistent attention to detail, I frequently look out for when an animal is trying to communicate a need, such as them wanting water, to play, to eat, to be pet, etc. I always ensure they have fresh, clean water and that they are fed the appropriate amount and on time. I also like to spend quality time with them giving them belly rubs and and behind-the-ear scratches. I also look out for their safety by keeping things that might be dangerous out of reach as well as checking in on them frequently to make sure they are doing well :)
About: I've had dogs of all sizes and ages, and now fur mom to a mini golden doodle. She's the queen of the house :) From German Shepards to Mini-Pinchers, I raised them all, and even helped some of my dogs give birth to their puppies! Your puppy (because yes, all doggies are puppies for me) is in good hands when we are together! Walks, cuddles, Netflix while dog sitting, I work from home and happy to help you give a healthy and happy day to your dog when you are out and about. And for your cat if you need any house care, I am your girl! For doggy day care needs (only available for recurrent owners) - I work from home during the day, so your dog won't be alone during our time together - They will enjoy 3 walks (depending on the weather and their energy). 1 when you drop them off, 1 mid day, and 1 before you pick them up so you are not rushed to walk them. - They will have dog treats waiting for them here to enjoy their stay. - Do bring their favorite toy so that they feel right at home if it will make your dog happy. For housesitting requests: - They will have 4 walks for their time with me (morning, afternoon, early evening, and evening). - A meet & great is needed to ensure I can properly take care of your doggies. I know your pet is part of your family, so let's give them the best care possible together :) Dina xo Notes - Meet & Greet always needed for all dogs, so it would be hard to accept last minute requests from new dogs. - Please don’t forget to inform me of any allergies or preferences of your dog so that we can have an amazing day! - If your dog needs a run, I would be more than happy to take them with me during my daily jog.
About: I’ve always loved animals, and especially have a soft spot for small dogs, since that’s what I grew up with. I have experience caring for friends' and family members' pets, making sure to meet each animal’s individual needs. I have a gentle, calm, and caring nature that pets seem to respond well to, and I enjoy nature walks and spending time outdoors! I love getting to know each animal’s personality and making sure they feel happy, safe, and loved, and I look forward to providing your pets with the same care, patience, and affection I would give my own. Currently working on my Aesthetician certification, hoping to use my dedication to pet care to support me through school. Message me for details for scheduling although my time is very flexible. Since my apartment isn’t the best fit for having pets over, I’ll be focusing on dog walking and caring for pets in their own homes when it feels like a good fit. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet with someone, so I want to make sure both you and your pet feel at ease. I’ll take the time to get to know your pet, follow their usual routines, and make sure they get plenty of care, attention, and affection. Whether it’s going for a nice walk or keeping them company at home, I want them to feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away!
“Breanna stayed with Monty, my 95lbs slightly anxious Bernedoodle while I was on vacation for 10 days and it was a fabulous experience. She’s communicative, attentive and obviously loves the heck out of Monty… and the feeling’s clearly reciprocal! She also knew how to handle his anxiety, his meds and his diet perfectly well. Highly recommend :)”

About: I was a foster dog mom for long periods of time. When someone around me gets a new dog, I’m the person they call for help and advice. I have taken care of multiple dogs at a time. I used to live in a community where dogs roamed everywhere and my house was one of their favourite hang out spots. They loved visiting my dog and I, as they knew they would get treats. I would sit and talk to them. I have a lot of patience and I believe that dogs deserve to live their best life, so I try my best to give them a lot of attention and love. I currently work in insurance full time during the week. My job is mostly remote and it is flexible so I could step away from my computer and go on a walk in the middle of my shift. I also occasionally work on the weekends at a respite center for people that have intellectual disability. I treat client’s homes with respect. I make sure that there is nothing unsafe laying around and that they have all that they need. If their pet stays with me, I once again make sure that the environment is safe. My house is always quiet unless the dogs are playing with each other. I don’t have a staircase so it’s easy for the dogs to roam around. I have a big crate if necessary but most of the time the crate is unused.

About: I am experienced and comfortable with pets of all shapes and sizes. I've been been told I am the dog whisperer, and am the go to dog walker and pet sitter for my friends. I have also cared for numerous cats over the years. I take great care to introduce myself to new animals slowly and at their pace. Nothing makes me happier than making a new furry friend, so whatever that takes I am willing to do. I am experienced with dogs small, large, and everything in-between. I love dogs in all stages of life, but have an especially soft spot for senior dogs. I am very experienced with senior dog care, as my beloved Buffy spent the last 2 years of her life with reduced mobility and increased needs. I'm very happy to move at their pace, or even pull them around in Buffy's wagon. I also have experience working with reactive dogs and managing their needs to ensure they have the best experiences possible. Every dog deserves to be met where they are and have access to enriching and fun activities. My schedule is very flexible. I am located on the Plateau and have a vehicle so I am happy to travel and get to wherever you are. My current apartment unfortunately does not allow pets, so I am unable to board, but I live near Parc Lafontaine, have a vehicle, and I am happy to travel to your pets.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Pointe-Claire
Hope is a wonderful house and dog sitter. Both Archie and Mocha took to her immediately and treated her like their own 😆. They were happy and content and she followed all the schedules and instructions to make my trip as easy on them as possible. She provided continuous updates and many photos that made me smile don't feel good while I was away. She also left the house in perfect shape for my return. I already have her booked for my next long-term trip.

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Pointe-Claire 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Pointe-Claire 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 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!
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, a background 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.
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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 88% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
