We had a great experience with Rebecca. She took wonderful care of Garou and Munchkin and kept us updated with pictures throughout the stay. What impressed us most was how she managed to connect with Munchkin — our cat is usually very shy with new people, but she warmed up to her quickly. That alone gave us huge peace of mind. Rebecca is attentive, reliable, and clearly loves animals. We’ll absolutely book her again.

Natalia s’est occupée d’Emma pendant 10 jours et elle est extraordinaire. Elle nous envoyait des photos, des mises à jour fréquemment et même des conseils que nous appliquons encore. Emma a adoré Natalia et nous n’hésiterons pas à reprendre Natalia. C’est une perle

About: Hi! I’m Leanne — a caring, responsible, and trusted pet sitter offering a premium, live-in pet sitting service. I’d love the opportunity to care for your pets and home while you’re away! My specialty is providing continuous, in-home care where your pet is happiest. I stay with them virtually 24/7 (aside from the occasional short trip to pick up groceries or food if needed.) This way your pets can enjoy the comfort of their own home while having consistent supervision, company, and keep to their familiar routine. 💕 My service is especially well-suited for pets who: - Experience separation anxiety or stress when left alone - 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 nearly around the clock, 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’ve also grown up caring for bull-breed dogs, and I had a beloved frog named Fern who lived an incredible 24 years. 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!) *Discounts available for stays longer than a week 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 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.

Amira was absolutely fantastic. Our moody chihuahua took to her right away and she did great giving our senior boxer all the meds he needed with a last minute injury. She kept him happy even when his activity was low. Pups loved her and can’t recommend her enough. Lovers of pictures and updates throughout our trip.

About: I am used to take care of dogs since I was a child. My family and friends let me in charge of them everytime they need. I have taking care of all kind of breeds in Colombia and Canada. I work from home with a flexible schedule that allows me to take them outside several times a day. I will be capable to stay next to them the whole time assuring they play and walk as they pleased or need. We don't have any pets at the moment, all our love will be just for yours. They always have a comfortable space to lay down and rest as they need. I live in a big open space that allow me to watch them with care. I am used to take care of pets and babies, always been aware of the silent and mysterious moments (lol)

Manon a pris grand soin de Boogie, elle lui a appris des nouveaux tours, a tenté d'améliorer sa réactivité et elle a joué avec lui. Manon a aussi administré les médicaments et a fait vivre des belles nouvelles expériences à Boogie. Dès qu'on la rencontre, on voit qu'elle a le tour avec les chiens et qu'elle les adore ! Nous avons reçu des nouvelles et des photos pendant notre voyage ce qui a été très apprécié. J'ai été en confiance avec Manon, elle est d'une spontanéité accueillante et déborde d'énergie. Et elle est aussi très respectueuse de la maison, à notre retour c'était impeccable! Merci Manon!

About: I have had doggies my whole life and since my last darling passed, I have been a foster Mom and boarder to many! I adore doggies and have a huge yard and heart to match! I support many online charities that save and care for refuge doggies! I was also a caregiver for my senior Mom in her latter years, so patience and love come naturally to me. I am retired so home all day and love having doggies to share the house! I also share the house with a friend so we are both available for walkings etc. I have a huge yard that is partially fenced-in to allow doggies to run and "do their business" throughout the day outside of regular walk times.

About: I have always had animals in my life. Growing up I would help our neighbour when she was away check in on her cat and spend time with her dog! I am currently working as an Early Childhood Educator. I love the adventures I have durning the day but I also enjoy coming home and spending time with my animals. I am free before or after work to go for walks or check in on your animals. I am free on weekends for overnight stays. I would also make sure the client is update on how the animal is doing. Your pets safety and trust are my top properties. When I sit for your dog, I ensure that they’re not only cared for but that they feel secure, happy, and at ease while you're away. Here's how I create a safe and trusting environment for every dog in my care: Pet-Proofed Spaces: My home is carefully prepared to be a safe haven for your dog. I remove any hazards such as chemicals, small objects, and toxic plants that could pose a risk. All gates and doors are securely locked to prevent accidental escapes. Secured Outdoor Areas: If your dog enjoys time outside, I ensure that the yard is fenced and secure, with no gaps or potential escape routes. I supervise all outdoor activities to make sure your dog is safe and secure at all times. Emergency Preparedness: I have clear instructions for handling emergencies, including contact information for your vet, the nearest animal hospital, and your personal contact details, should anything unexpected arise. I stick to your dog’s established routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest. Consistency helps minimize stress and makes your dog feel more at home in my care. Every dog is different. Some may need extra quiet time, while others thrive on play and activity. I respect their needs, ensuring that they feel secure and loved throughout the sitting experience.

About: I have spent my entire life with pets. Since I was a little girl to present day as an 24 year old strongly dedicated to her studies and a responsible young lady prepared to take on all the challenges life gives to her. I currently have 3 dogs and 3 cats, they are very friendly and love to meet new friends. I am available pretty much all the time. I can teach dog tricks, cuddle them, love them and make them feel like a member to the family within minutes. I never leave my pets alone, I make sure they are always busy unless they are tired! I highly respect animals and strongly believe they should be treated as our equals! I currently work as an airline employee and this would be a wonderful gig to do on the side as I have a lot of down time being on reserve. I am a very active and outdoorsy person, and already spend multiple hours per day doing things with my dog, this would be a wonderful addition to my current routine. I ensure they are always fed, and have water, I also am always around to entertain the dogs and/or cats. With my animals at home I take them to dog parks, to the ocean or somewhere to go swimming, I meet up with friends for doggie play dates if I do not want to go to the dog park. I also always have toys or bones for them to play with and I am really big on training, so I always have training treats with me to continuously keep that bond going.

Friendly, tidy, flexible, and responsive. Lindsay cared for our cats and dog while we were away. An unexpected issue had occurred with our return flights, which Lindsay was understanding and flexible with. She followed the instructions we left with regards to our pets, and tidied our apartment before we returned, which was very thoughtful! We recommend her, and would use her services again.

FAQs for House Sitting - Rigaud

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Rigaud on Rover is $42.8 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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

As of September 2026, there are 1,035 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Rigaud. Enter your postal code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Rigaud 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.

Tip: 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 Rigaud 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 Rigaud 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, identity 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.

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.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:

  • 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 86% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
