About: (I speak French and english) Hi! I’ve been surrounded by animals since childhood, and caring for them has always been a natural and important part of my life. I currently have three cats who mean the world to me, so I truly understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your furry family members. I have recently completed my AEP in Animal Care and have been working in a veterinary clinic, where I continue to gain valuable hands-on experience caring for animals. These experiences have helped me develop a strong understanding of animal behavior, health, and the importance of providing calm, patient, and compassionate care. I’m especially experienced with cats, but I’m also very comfortable caring for dogs. I previously worked in a pet shop for two years, where I was responsible for daily animal care and provided services such as nail trimming. Through my experience, I’ve learned how to approach animals calmly and confidently, read their body language, and adapt to each pet’s individual personality and needs. Whether your pet is playful, shy, energetic, anxious, or simply needs a little extra patience and attention, I’ll always do my best to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I take pet care very seriously and will treat your pets with the same care and attention I give my own. I would love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family member! I’m right now working part time but might take this as my primary job. I want to acquire more experience and see how this can be better for me for the future. I’m a calm and patient person who makes pets feel safe and comfortable. I respect their boundaries, pay close attention to their body language, and never force interactions. I’ll take great care of your pets and treat them like my own. 🐾

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

Available on hourly or daily basis including weekends/overnight stay. I am a graduate student and I can provide care after 4 pm or before 9 am. I can feed, walk or play with your dog/cat. I can also do light grooming, cleaning their food bowls and clean the litter. I first let them get used to me.

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.

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’ve taken care of my family while growing up. Recently, I’ve fostered 2 female dogs so far and I really loved my experience. I cared for one dogs after she got spayed and my other girl was abused and not fixed. I know some of them just need a touch of gentleness and loads of love and care. I’m currently working full-time (8-5pm) but I have rotational schedule so I have a lot of downtime to care and play with your pets. Also, my roommates work from home and they love dogs as much as me since we cared for our fosters together so someone is always home and supervising. I have a fenced front and back yard and 2 lovely human roommates who loves dogs as much as me. My neighbours have 2 dogs as well so they can keep them entertained if your pet would enjoy!

About: Plusieurs années d’expérience en promenade de chiens auprès de la SPCA m’ont permis de développer une grande aisance avec des chiens aux tempéraments variés. Cette expérience a renforcé mon approche douce, attentive et respectueuse du rythme de chaque animal. Fiable et à l’écoute, je porte une attention particulière au langage canin afin d’offrir des sorties sécuritaires, stimulantes et adaptées aux besoins de chaque compagnon. Que ce soit pour une promenade énergique ou plus tranquille, j’assure une présence constante, bienveillante et rassurante. Je suis présentement en réorientation de carrière et j'intègrerai le programme d'acupuncture à compter d'août 2026. Mes horaires sont donc flexibles et je suis grandement disponible. À mon domicile comme chez les propriétaires, j’accorde une grande importance à respecter la routine et les besoins spécifiques de chaque animal. Je prends le temps de créer un lien de confiance en m’adaptant à son rythme, son niveau d’énergie et son tempérament. Je veille à tous les aspects de son bien-être : repas, eau fraîche, propreté, jeux, stimulation et moments de calme. Pour les chiens, j’assure des promenades sécuritaires et adaptées. Pour les chats, je privilégie une approche douce et respectueuse, en laissant toujours l’animal venir à moi. Je porte aussi une attention particulière à leur langage et à leurs signaux afin d’assurer leur confort et leur sécurité en tout temps. Mon objectif est que chaque animal se sente en confiance, apaisé et bien entouré, même en l’absence de sa personne.

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 :)

Samuel was a lifesaver! 🥹 He came over on very short notice when I had a last-minute outing, and it was his first time taking care of my cat. He followed all my instructions perfectly, kept him well-fed and entertained, and took such good care of him. I’m so grateful and would absolutely recommend him!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Saint-Laurent

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Saint-Laurent on Rover is $29.97 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 Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

There are 1,771 sitters on Rover for Pet Sitting in Saint-Laurent. About 85% 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.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or travelling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer poop breaks during a Saint-Laurent stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover based on what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

You can coordinate how much supervision you want directly with your sitter. While every sitter’s schedule varies, here are some examples of supervision by pet care service:

  • Boarding or doggy day care: Many sitters can provide frequent companionship because they design their day specifically around the pets in their care or work from home.
  • House sitting: Your sitter generally stays in your home for the requested duration, which may include overnight care. They may step out briefly to visit other pet clients, but your home remains their primary base.
  • Drop-in visits or dog walking: These can be scheduled in 30- or 60-minute windows (and can be shorter or longer at your request) to help your pet receive dedicated attention and care during those specific times.

Interested in constant or 24/7 care? This service often incurs an additional fee but many sitters are happy to discuss this option with you.

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.

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.

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.

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.

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

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 87% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
