House Sitting in Saint-Jacques-le-Mineur

“Kassandra communicated well and ensured that she was prepared to take care of my dog. It was a relief knowing my dog was in good hands.”

“We had a fantastic experience with Valentina! She took such great care of our pets—lots of playtime, attention, and love. It was clear they were comfortable and happy with her. She also went above and beyond around the house, keeping everything tidy and even helping out with our backyard plants. Valentina kept us updated throughout our trip with regular pictures and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind about both the pets and the house. Highly recommend her and would absolutely book again!”

About: I’ve had cats and kittens all the time since I was 3 years old, along with other pets, including rabbits and chicks. My parents had a house in the mountains. Whenever we visited over the summer, I used to take care of my neighbor’s dog. It was always a thrill taking her for a walk every day. If she ever runs away from home, I would go after her and make sure she was okay before taking her back to her owners. Animals warm up to me, and I am very fond of them. I hope to be a veterinarian someday. The wellbeing and happiness of animals is very important to me. Seeing them well taken care of brings me joy and comfort, and it would be an honor to provide that care. I recently graduated from dawson college, and I will start Mcgill in the fall. I should be available any day, any time, until the Fall when my schedule will change depending on my classes. I would rather take care of your pet in your home. I am very trustworthy, so you don’t need to worry about your belongings while I’m at your place. I will only be inside for the duration needed to get the job done. I will document my time with your pet so your mind is at ease <3

“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: Hi, I’m Amanda! 🌈 I’m a 29 year-old animal lover and experienced pet sitter, available FULL TIME to care for your fur babies.🐾 For the past two years, I’ve been traveling across Australia, pet sitting in both cities and remote areas. I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities—from goofy Australian Shepherds and gentle Great Pyrenees to big Mastiffs and energetic Bull Arabs. I also volunteered at a dingo rescue, where I gained hands-on experience walking, feeding, and giving medication to dingoes (wild Australian dogs) - a truly unforgettable part of my journey! **See the photos (#2,3,4) on my profile are all dingoes! 🐕 I know how much peace of mind it brings when you can trust your pets are being loved and well cared for while you’re away. My goal is always to keep them on routine, give them plenty of attention, and create a calm, safe environment that feels like home. 💛 ——— DOG BOARDING When your pup stays with me, they’re treated like part of the family: ✅ Fully fenced backyard for safe playtime & fresh air ✅ 3-story family home with plenty of cozy nap spots ✅ Steps from a 15km scenic boardwalk along the Saint Lawrence River — for long, enriching walks with endless sniffs 🐕‍🦺 ✅ Minimum 2 daily walks, GPS-tracked so you’ll always know where we’ve been 🗺️ ✅ Daily photo & video updates so you never have to wonder how they’re doing 📸 ✅ Walking routes available for reactive or shy dogs ✅ A household of fellow dog-lovers to shower your pet with cuddles, that said I will remain fully responsible for their care. ❤️ ——— Extra Peace of Mind ✨ 💊 Comfortable giving oral medications & following special diets 🦮 Experience with puppies, seniors, and anxious pets who need extra patience 🦴 Bowls, blankets, balls & poo bags always on hand 📱Always just a text away — I respond 24/7 ——— Whether you need boarding, daycare, walking, or house sitting, I’d love to care for your pets as if they were my own. They’ll be safe, loved, and spoiled with affection until you’re back home ——— TESTIMONIALS ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “We had to leave last minute for a family emergency, and Amanda was a lifesaver. She looked after our 1-year-old mastiff cross, Rainbow, for nearly two months and treated him like family. We got regular photo updates, and Rainbow was clearly happy and well cared for. When we came home, he was calm and content—just like before. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Amanda to anyone needing a reliable and caring pet sitter!” – Audrey ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “We almost had to cancel our Christmas plans when our original sitter fell through last minute, but Amanda was able to step in and help. She took such good care of our cat, Charles—sent us regular updates, watered our plants, and kept the apartment clean. It made all the difference knowing he was safe and content while we were away. We’re so grateful and would absolutely book Amanda again.” – Maddie ——— Pet care is my full-time priority, with 24/7 availability. It’s part of my daily routine, and I look forward to giving your fur-babies my full attention I am aware that it’s very nerve-racking to leave your pets with a stranger but I will be sure to be as communicative as you would like, including photos/videos of your pets during my visit. I provide a comfortable, calm and relaxed energy for your pets.

About: J’ai eu mon premier chien à 18 ans. J’ai toujours aimé les animaux et j’ai une sensibilité naturelle pour remarquer quand un animal a besoin d’espace ou envie de jouer. Cela me permet de créer des liens de confiance. Même le chat de ma copine, dont tout le monde a peur, devient affectueux avec moi Je suis passionné de psychologie et je lis beaucoup sur les habitudes et les émotions humaines. Ce savoir m’a clairement aidé à mieux comprendre les besoins des animaux, ce qui me permet de créer des liens de confiance avec eux. Je n’ai jamais rencontré un animal qui ne finisse pas par m’aimer, grâce à la façon dont je me comporte avec eux. Ma copine a un chat qui n’aime pas les gens et dont tout le monde a peur, mais elle est finalement devenue très affectueuse avec moi

About: I love all animals, I am good with special needs dogs - Reactivity, medications, extra needy, injuries. A very good trainer my soul dog new approx 16 tricks - Have a puppy who needs extra training I got you, I work remotely my job allows me to have the flexibility to take care of your pets. They can come here and work with me or I can come to your place and work with them. I respect all pet parents wishes with their animals I would have only wanted the same for mine. I live in a beautiful city with lots of safe places to walk. I also have a fenced in back yard thats bigger then my apartment. Should your pet not be able to come here I can go there . I understand what its like to not want to leave your fur babies at home all day. I currently take care of 4 dogs in my neighborhood with all different needs. One with high reactivity so we work on it . One high working dog energy so engagement, training and breaking their energy up all day. One who needs special care as she on lots of medication and needs physio therapy. Honestly I respect all owners and animals so if you need something specific with your pets I am your girl!

“I’m so glad I met Nina here! She’s truly the best—always putting your dog’s care and your peace of mind first. This was my first time leaving Toni with someone I hadn’t met before, so of course a lot of “what ifs” ran through my head. But Nina was nothing but understanding and patient. She never made me feel like my questions were a bother—in fact, she said it helped her get to know Toni better. She listens carefully, asks about your dog’s needs, and clearly understands what it means to care for someone else’s pet. Her experience really shows. For example, Toni can be reactive on leash with certain dogs, and Nina even took the time to help me understand why. When we came home from our 6-day trip, Toni was completely relaxed, and our place was spotless—just like we’d never left. She sent daily updates with cute photos of their adventures, and Toni even became best friends with her sweet dog, Mac. If you want a responsible sitter who knows how to keep your pup safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away, book Nina. Thank you again, Nina!”

“Valérie est venue garder à domicile 2 nuits. Faire garder quelqu’un qu’on ne connaît pas est toujours un peu stressant mais elle a sû nous mettre en confiance rapidement! Que de petites attentions que nous avons apprécié! Le souçis de ne pas vouloir nous déranger mais prend des photos durant la journée pour nous les envoyés lorsque nous lui demandons des nouvelles! Très belle communication et respect des consignes. Elle a chouchouter nos bébés comme nous le ferions. À son départ, tout était rangé et prêt pour notre retour. Nous referons certainement affaire avec elle!”

About: Ayant moi-même un pomsky avec beaucoup d’énergie, j’adore marcher avec elle plusieurs fois par jour. Je garde souvent les chiens de mes amis, et j’adore les chiens et la nature. J’ai un horaire flexible alors il me ferait plaisir d’aller faire marcher votre chien, avec ou sans mon chien dépendamment de ce que vous préférez :) Je peux venir à votre domicile pour venir promener votre chien, et même l’amener à la montagne si vous voulez. Nous pouvons se rencontrer au préalable pour planifier le tout :)

About: Ayant moi même deux chiens (dont un âgé avec des besoins particuliers) et deux chats à la maison. Je sais à quel point il peut être difficile de confier son animal à quelqu’un d’autre. Pour moi aussi, mes compagnons sont bien plus que des animaux, ce sont des membres de la famille. 🐶😺 C’est justement ce qui m’a donné envie d’offrir un service à la hauteur de mes propres attentes pour que vous puissiez partir l’esprit tranquille, en sachant que votre compagnon est entre de bonnes mains. J'ai l’habitude de m’adapter à différents tempéraments, de respecter des routines précises et de donner des soins quotidiens comme des médicaments oraux (gouttes pour les yeux, comprimés, etc.). Je suis travailleuse autonome à temps partiel, ce qui me permet de gérer mon horaire avec grande flexibilité. J’ai donc beaucoup de temps libre et de disponibilité à offrir pour prendre soin de vos amours. 🩷 Les soins animaliers font naturellement partie de ma routine : je planifie mes journées pour leur offrir du temps de qualité, dans le confort de leurs foyers 😺🐶 Votre confiance est précieuse, et je m’engage à offrir un service attentionné et personnalisé. Parce que vos animaux méritent le meilleur. 🐾💛 Mon horaire flexible me permet de m’adapter aux besoins de vos compagnons, selon votre routine, vos consignes et vos préférences. J’ai de l'expérience avec les animaux ayant des besoins variés : médication, anxiété, soins particuliers, comportements réactifs, etc.

About: Depuis que j’était jeune, j'ai toujours eu des animaux de compagnie. Maintenant, j'ai mon propre chat et je m'occupe souvent des animaux des autres pendant leur absence. Je suis très active, et j'adore passer mes après-midi au parc. Since I was young, I've always had pets. Now I have my own cat and often look after other people's pets while they're away. I'm very active and love spending my afternoons in the park. Je travaille à la maison, donc mon horaire peut être flexible en fonction de vos besoins. Je peux être disponible de passer toute la journée/soirée chez vous, ou simplement vous rendre visite(s) pendant la journée selon vos besoins. I work from home, so my schedule can be flexible depending on your needs. I can be available to come spend the day, or simply visit you during the day depending on your needs. J'aimerais connaître les besoins de vos animaux! Je suis comfortable avec les médicaments et autres besoins spéciaux. En plus, je suis à l'aise avec différents types de personnalité, tous les animaux sont différents! :) Comme tous les animaux de compagnie sont différents, j'aimerais savoir ce que le vôtre aime faire! On pourrait marcher au parc, jouer à rapporter, ou simplement rester dans la zone qu'ils connaissent et passer une journée calme ensemble. I would love to know your pets' needs! I am comfortable with medications and other special needs. I am also comfortable with different personality types; all pets are different! :) Since all pets are different, I’d love to hear about what yours enjoys doing! We can go for a walk in the park, play fetch, or just hangout in an area they’re familiar with and spend a calm day together.

About: J’ai toujours été en compagnie de chien ou de chats depuis l’âge de 5 ans. Lorsque que j’avais 10 ans j’ai commencé à être assez responsable pour m’occuper de mes animaux. J’ai gardé les chiens et les chats de mes amis à plusieurs reprise. Maintenant, je n’ai plus de chien , mais j’ai 4 chats qui ne demande pas autant. Je m’ennuie de prendre soins d’un chien et de le promener. J’ai un emploi à temps partiel et je suis aux études, mais je consacrerais mes temps libre à pouvoir m’occuper de vos compagnons fidèles! Je pourrais les sortir pour jouer ou marcher, les nourrir durant votre absence, les garder si vous prévoyez vous absentez plus longtemps, les laver au besoin ou simplement leur tenir compagnie et les mettre à l’aise. Pour ma part, je n’ai pas l’espace pour accueillir vos animaux dans mon chez moi mais il me fera plaisir de me déplacer chez vous pour vous accommodés.

About: I've taken care of neighbors dogs while they were away since I was 14. I enjoyed taking them on walks, feeding them and playing with them. I recently graduated college and I am in search of a job. This means currently I am available full time including weekends, days and nights. I will provide your pet with scheduled feeding, daily walks, and playtime. I will also adhere to any medication or care routines specified, and maintain their space clean and secure.

“Cristine is the one you want to hired to take care of your dog. She is amazing! She came to our house to take care of our dog and we can tell he had a good time and was well take care of. She left our house spotless and we feel she went above and beyond to take care of Roscoe. I would recommand her 110%. And for sure we Will hired her again”

“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.”
