About: I am an animal lover since birth, with both parents retired Veterinarian that can easily provide with help and advice if need be! I cared for my cat with renal issue for that last year and he sadly loss passed away from cancer. I am comfortable giving meds and providing basic medical care if needed. I will also not hesitate to bring your animal to the closest veterinarian if needed. I was always stressed to leave my cat alone and was always grateful to my friend who could stay with him when I was away. I now want to help others do the same things ! I work 12hrs shift at the hospital but I will always be home morning and night to be with your animal, and during my days off ! Je suis une grande amoureuse des animaux depuis toujours. Mes deux parents sont des vétérinaires à la retraite, donc je peux facilement faire appel à leur aide et à leurs conseils au besoin! J’ai pris soin de mon chat qui souffrait de problèmes rénaux au cours de la dernière année. Malheureusement, il nous a quittés après avoir développé un cancer. Je suis à l’aise de donner des médicaments et de prodiguer des soins de base au besoin. Je n’hésiterai également jamais à amener votre animal chez le vétérinaire le plus proche si la situation l’exige. J’ai toujours été stressée de laisser mon chat seul lorsque je devais m’absenter, et j’ai toujours été très reconnaissante envers mes amis qui pouvaient rester avec lui en mon absence. Maintenant, j’aimerais pouvoir offrir cette même tranquillité d’esprit à d’autres propriétaires d’animaux! Je travaille des quarts de 12 heures à l’hôpital, mais je serai toujours à la maison matin et soir pour m’occuper de votre animal, ainsi que pendant mes journées de congé. 🐾❤️ I work 12 hrs shift but I am often home morning, nights and on my days off ! I will definitely prioritize staying with your cat but might have to leave the apartment a few hours at a time I have everything at home to care for a cat, but I am not allowed to have dogs. Im open to keep more than one cat if they are behaving well together

About: Boutique home boarding for only 1–2 dogs at a time, so your pup receives the personalized care, attention, and love they deserve. I also offer a unique Wedding Dog Attendant service for couples who want their four-legged family member to be part of their special day. Hi! I'm Andrea—a lifelong animal lover originally from a small town in Costa Rica, where I grew up surrounded by dogs, cats, horses, cows, pigs, goats, rabbits, and parrots. Caring for animals has always been a part of who I am, and after more than 30 years of experience with pets of all kinds, I truly understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. My goal is to make your dog feel like they're on their own vacation while you're away. I follow their regular routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and plenty of cuddles. Because I only care for 1–2 dogs at a time, your pup will receive lots of individual attention in a calm, loving home—not a crowded boarding facility. Communication is important to me, so you'll receive regular photo and video updates throughout your dog's stay, giving you peace of mind while you're away. Whether your dog is staying with me for a weekend getaway, a longer vacation, or needs a trusted companion to accompany them on your wedding day, I'll treat them like one of my own. I can't wait to welcome your furry family member into my home! 🐾 My schedule during the week is tailor according to you and your pup. Please reach out and I will make sure to help you as much as possible. Your dog's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I exclusively offer boarding in my home, where your pup will enjoy a calm, loving, and secure environment with plenty of personalized attention. I keep my home clean, smoke-free, and pet-friendly, and I only board 1–2 dogs at a time so each guest receives the care, attention, and affection they deserve. I follow your dog's usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and lots of cuddles to help them feel comfortable and at home. I know how important it is to stay connected while you're away, so I'll send regular photo and video updates, along with messages about how your pup is doing, giving you complete peace of mind throughout their stay. ✨ Wedding Dog Attendant Service: I also offer a special service for couples who want their dog to be part of their wedding day. I can safely transport, supervise, and care for your dog throughout the event so they can be included in your special moments while you enjoy the celebration stress-free. This premium service is available at a separate rate. I treat every dog as if they were my own, providing a safe, loving, and stress-free experience from the moment they arrive until it's time to go home.

Iván was great! I was scared of going out of town and leaving my cat alone due to her health condition, but Iván took great care of her. He was quick to reply to messages and sent regular updates (text + photos), which made me feel at ease while away. Iván also handled a health episode related to my cat's health condition in a really effective and caring way, something that I'm very grateful for. If you are looking for someone to take good care of your pet, I definitely recommend Iván!

About: Hi 👋 I love dogs! I’ve been taking care of fur babies for the last 8 years but about 4 years on Rover! 🐾 My services include pet sitting from my home. I live alone and have no kids & no other pets. I work from home as well, so they’ll never be left alone. From neighbour's, to friends, to colleagues's dogs, from puppies and more senior. I am reliable and responsible and can ensure a happy temporary home and peace of mind while you are away! I work full-time Monday to Friday in a flexible work from home environment so I’m around 24/7 to play, walk and feed the munchkins, Weekends I am available all day. I can also bathe if necessary, and/or administer medication.

About: I am a graduate of the animal health program at Vanier college (class of 2019). I can spot things that may not be optimal in pets’ health and give their parents suggestions on how to improve :) I am also a pet mom and I treat all pets as if they were my own! I work and study part time but have afternoons and evenings off as well as 1/2 weekends. I will do my best to accommodate any schedule! I will gladly take care of your pets in their natural home environment! If it’s kitties, I can also receive them at my place. My pets are very welcoming :)

About: EN I am an animal lover to boot! In 2024, I had the privilege to start volunteering walking dogs for the elderly as a way to help seniors keep their companions. It was wonderful and by 2025, I began working as a dog walker. I am particularly fond of senior dogs. 75% of my experience has been with dogs over the age of ten. I will treat your old man/lady with the love and care I’d want for my own. Message me, let’s chat and see how I can help you! And don’t worry if I seem too far away, I’m happy to travel anywhere within the island Please note that if your pet requires specialized treatment (24/7 company, timed medications, etc), rates will be adjusted accordingly. Thank you! FR Je suis un amoureux des animaux en plus ! En 2024, j’ai eu le privilège de commencer à faire du bénévolat pour promener des chiens pour les personnes âgées afin d’aider les seniors à garder leurs compagnons. C’était merveilleux et en 2025, j’ai commencé à travailler comme promeneur de chiens. J’aime particulièrement les chiens âgés. 75% de mon expérience a été avec des chiens âgés de plus de dix ans. Je traiterai votre vieil homme/dame avec l’amour et le soin que je voudrais pour moi-même. Envoie-moi un message, discutons et voyons comment je peux t’aider ! Et ne t’inquiète pas si je semble trop loin, je suis heureux de voyager n’importe où dans l’île. Veuillez noter que si votre animal nécessite un traitement spécialisé (entreprise 24/7, médicaments programmés, etc.), les tarifs seront ajustés en conséquence. Merci ! EN I offer house sitting, so I am fully available during the week and weekends. My schedule is very flexible. Let’s chat! I can also offer sliding scale, so if something is out of your budget, please reach out, I’d love to help :) FR Je propose le gardiennage de maison, donc je suis entièrement disponible pendant la semaine et les week-ends. Mon emploi du temps est très flexible. Discutons ! Je peux aussi proposer une échelle mobile, donc si quelque chose dépasse votre budget, veuillez me contacter, j’aimerais vous aider :) EN I don’t offer boarding as unfortunately my space doesn’t allow pets, but I am happy to house sit for you or just drop in whenever necessary. I offer basic care such as home cleaning, feeding, litter cleaning, walks, brushing, and companionship, but I am happy to administer medication as well. FR Je n’offre pas de pension car malheureusement mon espace ne permet pas les animaux de compagnie, mais je suis heureux de garder la maison pour vous ou simplement de passer quand c’est nécessaire. Je propose des soins de base tels que le nettoyage de la maison, l’alimentation, le nettoyage de la litière, les promenades, le brossage et la compagnie, mais je suis également heureux d’administrer des médicaments.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Saint-Laurent on Rover is $32.19 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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

There are 799 sitters on Rover for Cat Sitting in Saint-Laurent. About 88% of Saint-Laurent 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.

Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 799 sitters in Saint-Laurent, 88% 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-Laurent 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:

  • 91% 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.
