About: Ayant grandi avec un chien et géré jusqu'à 25 chiens par jour en pension canine, je suis à l'aise avec toutes les races et tous les tempéraments, du chiot plein d'énergie au chien plus posé. J'ai aussi mon propre chien à la maison, donc je sais ce que c'est de vouloir le meilleur pour son compagnon. Ce qui me distingue : l'expérience de gérer plusieurs chiens en même temps en pension m'a appris à lire rapidement le comportement canin, gérer les routines et assurer la sécurité du groupe, une compétence qu'on développe rarement en gardant un seul chien à la fois. Je travaille de la maison, donc mon horaire est très flexible et je peux m'occuper de ton chien à presque n'importe quel moment de la journée ou même de la nuit si besoin. J'habite dans le bois à Stoneham, avec une grande cour et plein de sentiers pour de belles marches en nature. Si tu préfères que ton chien reste chez toi, je peux aussi me déplacer directement à ta résidence, de jour comme de soir, selon ce qui te convient le mieux. Mon objectif, c'est de m'adapter à ta routine et à celle de ton chien, pas l'inverse. Si tu veux, je peux aussi la raccourcir un peu, dis-moi si tu préfères une version plus condensée. La sécurité et le bien-être du chien passent toujours en premier. Chez moi à Stoneham, la cour est grande et sécuritaire, entourée de bois, parfaite pour se dépenser en toute tranquillité, toujours sous supervision. Je respecte la routine de chaque chien (repas, marches, repos) pour minimiser le stress du changement d'environnement. Mon expérience en pension canine (jusqu'à 25 chiens/jour) m'a appris à repérer rapidement les signes de stress ou d'inconfort chez un chien et à adapter mon approche en conséquence, que ce soit chez moi ou chez toi. Si le service se passe à ta résidence, je m'assure de connaître les lieux, les consignes particulières et les habitudes de ton chien avant de commencer, pour que tout se passe en douceur.

About: Je m'occupe de garder les chiens de mes amis et de mes parents depuis 10 ans. Attentionnée et calineuse, je suis une gardienne qui priorise les besoins du chien dans mon horaire. Je les aime d'amour et j'adore leur compagnie. Je travaille 35h/semaine et je suis une femme célibataire active. Je marche minimum 45 min par jour. Je fais 2 jours de télétravail/semaine et les soirs de semaine ainsi que les weekends sont disponibles pour la garde de chien. Je vis seule dans un appartement de 2e étage. L'environnement est tranquille et les parcs sont tout près d'où je vis. Une grande fenêtre surplombe mon salon pour les curieux et les amoureux du soleil.
About: Calme et rigoureuse, j'offre un service de garde fiable à mon domicile ou en visites, selon votre formule idéale. J'ai l'habitude de m'occuper de différents profils d'animaux, des chats plus timides aux chiens dynamiques, et je sais administrer des soins de base si nécessaire. Votre propriété et vos compagnons seront traités avec le plus grand respect! Je suis travailleuse autonome, j’ai donc un horaire atypique ce qui permet de grandes disponibilités à différents moments de l’année. De plus, une grande partie de mon travail s’effectue de la maison, ce qui me permet d’offrir une présence quasi constante à vos protégés. Je m’assure d’au moins deux périodes de marche par jour et si votre animal est à mon domicile, j’ai une cour clôturée. De plus, tout dépendant des besoins de votre animal, je suis disponible même de semaine pour des activités plus longues, comme la randonnée en forêt ou les sorties à la plage.
“Très belle expérience avec Audrey! Elle a bien pris soin de mon chien et a su s’adapter à ses besoins particuliers. Elle communiquait avec nous régulièrement et nous envoyait plusieurs photos et vidéos. Je la recommande très fortement!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your postal code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighbourhood.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Roche-Plate 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 Roche-Plate 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 Roche-Plate 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. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
