Quelle merveilleuse Gardienne ! Douce, gentille, patiente, ma p'tite Charlie a été traitée aux petits oignons! Il n'y a rien de mieux que d'être en confiance quand on part et qu'on laisse notre petit amour aux soins de quelqu'un d'autre. Ma p'tite Charlie, pourtant bien craintive, a adoptée Myriam sur le champs ! Merci Myriam !

About: Pet care experience: "I've worked professionally as a dog walker and groomer at a boarding facility for several years, caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and temperaments. Over 14 years, I've handled everything from high-energy puppies to anxious seniors, including leash training, bathing, nail trims, and medication administration. I'm active, attentive, and treat every dog like my own — with plenty of exercise, playtime, and calm routines. Owners get regular photo updates and can trust their pup is in capable, caring hands I work full-time Monday–Thursday, so I'm available for evening care, overnight boarding, and weekend sitting. Fridays I'm off, and weekends I'm fully available for dogs needing active play, multiple walks, and consistent routines. I can occasionally adjust my schedule with advance notice, but my best availability is Friday–Sunday. I live 100m from a park where dogs get multiple daily walks and active playtime. My dog is extremely friendly, well-behaved, and great with other dogs and cats, she's the perfect calm companion for social pups. I'm experienced with behavioral management, crate training, and keeping anxious or high-energy dogs comfortable. All dogs are leashed outside, and I keep emergency vet info on hand. Your dog's safety, exercise, and comfort are my top priorities.

About: Bonjour! Je m’appelle Roxanne et je suis entourée de chiens depuis plusieurs années. Mon propre chien, Loki, a maintenant 3 ans et, disons-le, il m’a obligée à en apprendre beaucoup sur les soins, l’éducation et la gestion des cocos à quatre pattes! Même s’il n’est pas toujours le plus brillant, j’ai réussi à lui enseigner les commandes de base ainsi que quelques tours supplémentaires. Je le promène deux fois par jour : une fois en après-midi et une autre en soirée avant le coucher. Je travaille à temps partiel de 7 h à 15 h 30, ce qui me permet d’offrir mes services aux propriétaires qui travaillent de soir ou de nuit. Que ce soit pour une promenade occasionnelle ou un besoin régulier, n’hésitez pas à me contacter. I also speak English if needed! Just send me a message :) **My schedule changes each week, I’ll do my best to accommodate you. Mon horaire chaque chaque semaine, je vais faire de mon mieux pour vous accommoder.** Mes disponibilités varient selon les semaines! Je travaille une fin de semaine sur deux ainsi que certains jours de semaine. J’adore marcher, peu importe la météo : soleil, pluie ou neige, ça ne me fait pas peur! Je peux m’occuper de certaines médications, brossage, pratiques de “tricks” ainsi que simplement brûler leur énergie. J’ai aussi une voiture ainsi que des ceintures de sécurité pour chien!

About: I've been surrounded by animals my entire life. Since I was little, pets have always been part of my family. My first adopted dog, Indy, has been with me for over 10 years and taught me the true meaning of loyalty, care, and love. I have an endless love for animals and always treat them as if they were my own. ❤️ I’m available every day and can easily adapt to your pet’s routine. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins or evening playtime, I have a flexible schedule and can fully commit to their care. Pets in my care will be treated with love, patience, and full attention. I have the possibility to welcome them into my home, which is a safe, calm, and pet-friendly environment. Whether your pet stays with me or I go to your place, I always prioritize their comfort and emotional well-being. I follow instructions carefully and adapt to each pet’s personality and needs to make them feel secure and loved. 🚗 I also offer pick-up and drop-off for pets! Rates vary depending on distance: • $5-10 within Beauharnois or nearby areas (Châteauguay, Valleyfield). •$12–20 for longer distances (e.g., Montréal or up to 40–50 km or more). Feel free to ask for an exact quote based on your location 💕

About: I have taken care of dogs, bunnies, cats, for 10+ years. My strength has been in caring for animals with anxiety, nervousness, or shyness, and bringing them comfort and a positive environment. I am very good at reinforcing training for the young ones to provide them consistency and stability in their routine. I am gifted in reading animals and having a lot of patience, and a great passion for them. This allows me to connect with them really effectively and be able to create a safe and loving experience for your fur babies! Pet care fits really naturally into my routine. I work full‑time as an operations manager from home, which gives me a lot of flexibility during the day for walks, check‑ins, playtime, and just being present. I’m not rushing in and out between commitments—your pet gets real attention worked into my day, not squeezed in as an afterthought. I used to dog sit in my own home and absolutely loved it, but after moving, my landlord no longer allows pets. Continuing to care for animals in clients’ homes is my way of keeping that connection I genuinely miss. Spending time with pets is something I want to do, not just something I’m fitting in. Because my schedule is flexible, I can adapt to your pet’s needs—whether that’s midday walks, medication timing, extra companionship during the workday, or sticking closely to an established routine. It ends up feeling very natural and consistent for them, which I know makes a big difference. For me, pet care is a grounding, enjoyable part of my week—and for your pet, it means calm, reliable care from someone who truly enjoys being there! When I care for pets in your home, I treat it like it’s their space and their routine, not just a place I’m visiting. I stick closely to your instructions—feeding schedules, walk times, meds, house rules—so everything feels as normal as possible for them. I make sure they get plenty of attention, play, and comfort, whether that means active time or just being a calm, reassuring presence nearby. I’m respectful of your home, keep things clean and tidy, and always prioritize safety (doors secure, leashes on, food stored properly). I also love sending updates and photos so you can see how your pet is doing and feel totally at ease while you’re away. My goal is simple: your pet feels relaxed and well cared for, and you come home to a happy animal and a home just the way you left it.

About: I grew up with 30+ bunnies in my backyard, and had 3 cats. My mom still has 2 rescued dogs and 4 rescued cats and 1 bird that i babysit sometimes while working from home. I currently live with my sister that has a small pugchi mix so i’m used to being the babysitter for her as well when she goes to work or on trips. I took care of 2 ex-boyfriend’s dogs that were a german shepherd and a golden retriever. I work from home 100% of the time (so I can stay for as long as needed and give your home and furry friends all the love and attention they deserve!) All i need is for you to have reliable Wi-Fi i can connect to in order to work. Im able to give your pet attention throughout the whole day and go for potty breaks when needed. Walks would be before work, during lunchbreak and after work. I speak FR and EN. I can give you updates and pictures as much as you need to feel like your baby is safe. I’m a very calm person and would be working on my computer wether it’s a weekday or weekend so your home is in good hands. I can also do a house clean for a fee if you’re interested.

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 :)

Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 796 sitters in Saint-Joseph-du-Lac, 87% respond to messages in under an hour.

You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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 Saint-Joseph-du-Lac 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.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 87% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
