Thanks Sonia for the detailed report after every visit. It gives me such peace of mind leaving Panbeh alone knowing you will check in him and spend time with him. I’m sure he loves playing puzzles with you :)

Alba is an excellent cat sitter, dedicated, punctual and caring. She will immediately question anything that does not seem quite right, so that you are aware of the matter. I felt totally comfortable having her take care of Pixie for 3 weeks. She made Pixie feel very loved with each visit. I highly recommend Alba.

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’ve had dogs since I was 8 years old, and over the years, I’ve cared for a variety of breeds, each with their own unique personalities. I’ve always felt comfortable around dogs and have developed a strong understanding of their behavior and psychology. Whether it’s offering comfort, teaching simple tricks, or just sharing a peaceful walk, dogs seem to be naturally drawn to me. As someone who works from home, I have the flexibility to accommodate a range of schedules, providing your dog with the attention and care they deserve. I’m committed to giving each dog a personalized experience, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and well-cared for during our time together. Since I work from home, my schedule is quite flexible, allowing me to easily accommodate your pet’s needs. I’m available to walk dogs before 9 a.m., during lunchtime, and after work hours. Additionally, I’m happy to help on weekends during the day. Whether your dog needs a morning stroll or a weekend adventure, I can adjust my schedule to fit your pet’s routine. I take the safety and well-being of all pets in my care very seriously. While I live in a condo, I make sure to create a calm, safe environment for each pet, with plenty of space to relax and play. I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they feel comfortable and secure. Trust is built through consistency and clear communication, so I always make sure to follow any specific care instructions and keep pet parents updated regularly. Whether it’s providing a peaceful walk or a relaxing break, your pet will be treated with the utmost care and respect.

About: I adopted two kittens and a dog, and they lived harmoniously with me for 16 to 18 years. I ensured they were well-behaved by setting clear boundaries with plenty of love. My cats were primarily indoor, but once I trained them not to run, I allowed them outside in the backyard. At the sound of a clap, they would rush back to the patio door, knowing it was time to come inside. My dog, Fendi, was also well-trained from puppyhood. I always made sure they received high-quality, veterinarian-approved food, regular grooming, and plenty of exercise and affection. I gave them a happy, healthy life. My beloved dog, Fendi, passed away on December 26, 2024, after 16 wonderful years together. I miss him more than words can express. Now, I want to offer my services to pet owners, sharing my love and care with other dogs and cats, knowing they’ll be in good hands. I am home based permanently at the moment but will be retiring in a couple of months. I am an empty nester with a lot of free time. I exercise daily and love taking long walks. I give any pet my full attention and interact with them in order to stimulate them intellectually. Naturally this will depend on the dog's character, age and physical ability. I will ensure they get to enjoy the outdoors. I have a large backyard to let the pet roam around. I will carry out any instructions provided by the owners in order to have the dog maintain his routine.

About: I’ve always loved the way dogs bring joy, personality, laughter, and comfort into everyday life. Caring for them comes naturally to me, and I put a lot of intention into making sure each dog feels safe, relaxed, and understood. I love creating a calm, comfortable space for dogs to settle in. I take the time to learn each dog’s routine, quirks, and comfort level so they can feel cared for and at ease. I’m patient, observant, and committed to following the guidelines you set so your dog feels right at home. Here’s what your dog can expect: • A peaceful, comfortable environment • Gentle attention and affection • Walks, playtime, and enrichment based on their energy level • Consistency with your rules and routines • Clear communication and regular updates My goal is for your dog to feel secure and happy — and for you to feel completely at ease while they’re with me. I work from home, so your dog will have company for most of the day. I’m around and attentive, which means plenty of companionship, playtime, and regular trips outside whenever they need a break. The only day I’m typically out of the house is Thursday, but I make sure pets in my care have everything they need before and after I’m gone. My home becomes your pet’s home while they’re here. Dogs are welcome to relax on the couch or curl up in bed—unless you prefer to keep those spaces off‑limits, in which case I’ll happily follow your rules. I also have a spacious backyard that’s mostly fenced, giving dogs room to explore and enjoy some fresh air. Plus, I live in a great area for walks, with several parks nearby and a couple of lovely dog parks for pups who enjoy social time and extra exercise.

About: **Welcome to Our Dog-Loving Family!** For over a decade, we've been passionate about dogs. Since our first child was born 12 years ago, our home has been filled with canine love. Our eldest daughter adores animals and is especially fond of dogs. Our younger two children also enjoy interacting with dogs. Currently, we have Tini, our French Bulldog, born in early 2020, who is a favorite of our eldest daughter. Tini is friendly and relaxed, spending most of his time sleeping, so we love having dog friends over to keep him active and engaged. Three years ago, our daughter wanted another dog, but with the arrival of our youngest son, we decided to start dog sitting instead. This new venture has been a great success, and we’ve welcomed dozens of dogs into our home, creating lasting memories and friendships with their owners. Our beautiful detached villa is situated by the river in the heart of the West Island, close to Highway 20, with easy access to transportation. Our spacious, fenced backyard is secure and perfect for dogs to play. We ensure Tini gets two walks a day and, weather permitting, playtime in the yard. We maintain each dog’s routine for eating, exercise, and bathroom breaks, and we build a trusting relationship with every dog to support their healthy lifestyle. **About Me** I currently work part-time, and with my children at school or daycare, I have ample time to care for your dog. I am available during weekdays and weekends, so you can reach out to me anytime to discuss your dog's needs. My flexible schedule allows me to provide attentive and personalized care for your furry friend. Feel free to contact me at any time for inquiries or to arrange a meet-and-greet! Welcome to our home, where your dog will receive exceptional care and attention. Our friendly French Bulldog, Tini, will be a delightful companion for your dog, ensuring they have fun and feel at ease. Our spacious and secure home offers a beautiful, fenced backyard and a safe, comfortable indoor environment for play and relaxation. We are committed to maintaining your dog’s established routines and habits, including their diet, exercise, and rest. Your dog's well-being is our top priority, and we strive to provide a loving and safe space for them to enjoy while you're away.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over three years now. My longest stay has been with two dogs for 21 days. There’s nothing in this world that I love more than spending time with pups, so I’d love nothing more than to care for your dogs, however long you need me! I don’t have a job in the summer so I have lots of time, I usually workout in the morning at 7:30 and then usually have something early afternoon, but I’m never away for longer than 2 hours. I’m big on dog love, the more they learn that we can trust each other, the smoother we will get along. However much care your dog needs, I’m willing to provide!

About: I’ve spent my whole life surrounded by animals — from Retrievers, Shepherds, Weimaraners to Border Collies, Basset Hounds to Rottweilers , Cats, and even my horse. With years of hands-on experience across all ages and personalities, I’m comfortable caring for playful puppies, energetic younger dogs, and sweet seniors who need a slower pace. I take a calm, gentle approach with every dog, reading their cues and meeting them exactly where they are — whether they need confidence, comfort, reassurance, or a little extra patience. I’m also experienced with medication routines and special care instructions, and I always handle those with the same kindness and attentiveness your dog is used to at home. My goal is always the same: to make your dog feel safe, understood, and truly at home. I work during the week, which is why I offer boarding primarily on weekends—when I’m fully available to give your dog the attention, time, and companionship they deserve. My career is flexible, though, so depending on my schedule, I’m also able to offer drop-in visits and walks during the day or in the evenings throughout the week. I always make sure that any service I accept fits comfortably around my work so your dog receives reliable, unrushed, and consistent care. I live in a bungalow with a full basement and a mudroom, so there are very few stairs — perfect for senior dogs or pups with mobility issues. If a dog isn’t comfortable with steps or has joint concerns, I can easily block off or baby-gate the stair areas to keep them safe. My home also has a large, fully fenced yard with plenty of room to play, sniff, and explore. Whether it’s a quick potty break or a longer time outside, I always stay with the dog — I never leave them out on their own. The yard has minimal steps as well, which is great for dogs who need extra care with mobility. When it comes to sleeping arrangements, I want dogs to feel completely comfortable. They’re welcome to sleep in our room on a cozy dog bed, and if they prefer or are used to a crate, I can set that up as well. Whatever helps them feel safe and settled is what I’ll do. When I’m caring for dogs in a client’s home, I follow their routines and house rules exactly — feeding, walks, bedtime habits, comfort items, and any special instructions. My goal is for their dog to feel relaxed, secure, and cared for in their own familiar environment. No matter where I’m looking after your dog, you can expect safe supervision, attention to detail, a calm atmosphere, and lots of love.

Jess and Erik were absolutely amazing caregivers to our cat. They were extremely communicative, sent updates with photos and left a thorough report for us after each visit. Before booking, they asked all pertinent questions to make sure to provide the best care and attention for our cat. You can really tell they love animals and go above and beyond to ensure we (the owners) are comfortable and the animal feels secure and happy. Thank you so much, would definitely recommend this couple to care for your pets while you are away!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Pointe-Claire

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Pointe-Claire on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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

There are 1,805 sitters on Rover for Pet Sitting in Pointe-Claire. About 84% 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.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or travelling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer poop breaks during a Pointe-Claire stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover based on what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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 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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

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.

Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a veterinary professional or offer other resources to help.

If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means Rover Support will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.

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

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.
