“Vlanie was amazing! She was very flexible and took great care of my cats. I can tell they enjoyed their time with her. I would definitely recommend hiring Vlanie, your pets will be in good hands.”
“Heather is the definition of going above and beyond. She took care of both of our very big dogs (great Dane and Cane Corso) during a house sitting of several days. She walked the dogs, gave them love, shared pictures every day and took care of the house doing things that we didn't expect her to do such as laundry of the bedroom she slept in, cleaning up the house. Heather is super respectful and has great attention to details as she took notes of everything we talked about and followed them to the letter. We will definitely ask for Heather again when we need a house and dog sitter services.”
“Angela looked after Cosmo and Neumos for the first part of our vacation. Despite her young age, she showed incredible maturity—she was polite, proactive, and always kept us in the loop with regular updates. She had no prior experience with a megaesophagus condition, but she stepped up to the challenge and managed his routine flawlessly. We highly recommend her!”
“Madeleine and Fred took to each other immediately, making me feel incredibly at ease with leaving them together for a couple of hours! Madeleine's bubbly, animated, and friendly personality is particularly endearing, and her can-do attitude makes me confident in knowing that Fred is being left in good/capable hands! Would 10/10 rebook!”
“Émilie est vraiment une super personne pour s’occuper des animaux. Je suis parie en confiance car elle était attentionnée aux soins de mon chien et comme elle est venue chez moi 3 jours, elle a respecté mon environnement. Je la recommande fortement vous ne serez pas déçu. Mon chien était d’un calme quand je suis arrivée….. c était incroyable. Merci 1000 fois Emilie, tu es la meilleure.”
“Jess took care of my dog Cedar for two weeks in my home and provided exceptional care for my dog. She followed detailed instructions and kept my dog on the schedule that she is accustomed to! My dog is a bit of a princess - lol. She sent photos and updates to keep in touch. She even tidied up the house before I came home! I whole heartedly recommend Jess for any of your pet care needs! I feel so lucky to have found someone that I trusted enough to come into my home to care for my princess-dog! Yiu can't go wrong with this pet care provider! 10/10 ??❤”
About: I've taken care of friends' and neighbors' cats and dogs since I was 13 years old. I have a huge interest (and knowledge) in animal behavior, as much as for cats as for dogs. I pride myself in befriending even the shyest of pets (no matter the species!), always on their own terms ❤️ True respect for animals, and paying attention to details are some of the biggest non-negotiables for me when it comes to pet care. I also have a huge interest in all animals and work hard to take great care of all species ❤️ Big reptile lover! (ENG/FR) I have a few shifts here and there on a few weekend evenings at my past job this summer, but otherwise have a very free schedule to relax from this past uni year that has been very intense for me, so I am very flexible for different types of pet care and eager to meet your pets! I can only offer cat boarding at my apartment, and sadly do not have cat supplies, so I will need to have yours dropped off at my house. In terms of pet sitting, I make sure to offer a good mix of stimulation with play time and social activities, and also rest time so your pets can feel as confident and relaxed as can be while in my care.
“Nous avons réservé un service de garde à domicile avec Tatiana la veille de sa visite. Elle était super compréhensible de notre besoin urgent et à l'aise avec notre chienne réactive. Au moment de leur rencontre, elle a su faire preuve de bienveillance et de patience avec Frida. J'ai pu quitter l'esprit en paix! C'est certain que nous allons la recontacter dans le futur. Je la recommande fortement! :)”
“Théo took the time to meet my dog and I the day before our booking, and really goes above and beyond to provide loving care for the animal. I recommend Théo 100% and so does my pup!”
“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 have had dogs my entire life, and have loved animals since I was a little girl! I used to want to be a vet, but then I realized there’s too much sadness in that job so I decided to be a musician instead. I am a great fit for pet sitting because I will treat your pet like my own. I will provide many cuddles and play as your pet would like, and we can go on as many walks as possible! I am a trustworthy and responsible young woman with lots of energy for fun! I am a freelancer, meaning I can honestly work around your schedule. I’m not picky about when you need me, more so just how much notice I have! I can devote my full day to taking care of your pet :) I live in a no smoking, no yelling, pet friendly environment. My house is super cozy, and my two roommates and animal lovers! I will make sure your pet has the best care possible, and you can trust I will keep them safe and loved as if they were my own.
“Maha was absolutely wonderful with my kitten, Leo. This was my first time leaving him with a sitter, so I was a little nervous, but she made the entire experience completely stress free. She sent me photos and updates throughout the day without me even having to ask, which was so reassuring. It honestly felt like I was still there with him. Every picture showed how happy, comfortable, and relaxed he was with her. She was kind, patient, reliable, and clearly genuinely cares about animals. She even stayed a little longer when I was running late getting home, which I really appreciated. I came home to a very happy and relaxed kitten, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I would trust Maha with Leo again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter!”
“Chiara looked after my greyhound dog Jolene and my apartment over a weekend. She met my dog in advance and responded to messages promptly. As my first experience with Rover it was success! I look forward to having Chiara dog sit again in the future.”
“Irmak was a wonderful petsitter and housesitter! She was wonderful with our little dog Olive. She stayed in regular communication with us, which really set our minds at ease while we were away. She provided the best care and we're so happy to have found her! Thanks again!”
About: J'adore les animaux. Je suis une personne qui a toujours eu une facilité à connecter avec eux encore plus particulièrement avec les chiens. Je suis à l'aise avec les chiens de toutes les tailles. J'ai eu mon premier chien à 10 ans, un chien de petite taille qui s'appelait Rex. Mon deuxième était un chien de large taille, Bud. Je suis conscient que les animaux sont des êtres sensibles à leur environnement c'est pour cette raison que je m'assure de leur offrir une présence calme et confiante. J'ai beaucoup d'expérience avec les chiens réactifs et je sais comment rédiger leur attention de manière positive au besoin. Je suis une personne patiente et je comprends que chaque animal peut être a un différend stade dans son apprentissage. Je suis prête a offrir des services qui font en sorte que votre animal reçoit un entraînement constant, en accord avec votre approche. Le respect est une valeur importante à mes yeux, c'est pour cette raison que je m'assure de respecter vos disponibilités et d'offrir une flexibilité pour les imprévus. I love animals. I’ve always had a natural ability to connect with them, especially dogs. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes. I got my first dog when I was 10—a small dog named Rex. My second dog was a large breed named Bud. I understand that animals are sensitive to their environment, which is why I make sure to provide them with a calm and confident presence. I have experience with reactive dogs and know how to redirect their attention in a positive way when needed. I am a patient person and understand that every animal is at a different stage in their learning process. I am ready to provide services that ensure your pet receives consistent training, in line with your approach. Respect is an important value to me, which is why I make sure to respect your schedule and offer flexibility for the unexpected. I work full time therefore I'm available after 5pm until midnight from Monday to Friday. I have a clear schedule on Saturday's and Sunday's. I'm available to do overnight house sitting from Friday to Saturday and Saturday to Sunday. Je travaille à temps plein ; je suis donc disponible du lundi au vendredi, de 17 h à minuit. Je suis libre le samedi et le dimanche. Je suis disponible pour prendre soin de votre animal chez vous pendant les nuit du vendredi au samedi et du samedi au dimanche. Je m'occuperai de votre animal en lui faisant faire de l'exercice et en le sortant pour qu'il fasse ses besoins. Je sais m'adapter aux besoins de votre animal en matière d'exercice et de stimulation mentale. Je sais bien que certaines races sont très actives, tandis que d'autres sont plus calmes. I will care for you pet by giving them exercise and letting them out to go potty. I can adapt your pets needs when it come to exercise and mental stimulations. I understand that some breeds are highly driven while other are more relaxed.
About: I'm a short and sweet professional artist with lots of time, flexibility and affection for pets. I adopted my first ever dog, a boston terrier, when I was 20 years old with my sister (we were sharing an apartment at the time). We had no idea what we were getting into and worked hard to train him and give hime everything he needed to be healthy and happy. Of course, we made mistakes along the way, but he never lacked love and attention. Years later, even after my sister moved out with our pup's full custody, I was the only one who had authority on him when he was throwing a tantrum and barking at the neighbours. Consistency and firm commands were my best allies. In the following years, many of my friends and family trusted me with their pets when going away on holidays. I've immensely enjoyed those staycations, taking care of furry friends in their own space and tending to their needs. I am now moving to a more professional setting and working on establishing the same trust with my new clients. As written above, I am a professional artist and therefore self employed. My schedule varies from project to project and I am very flexible with my time. Between the gym, the coffee shop and the studio, I can swing by your place for a long walk with the dog or sit with your cat for a few hours while I answer emails. Plus, I enjoy cycling all year round so it's a treat to get to bike to your house and back to give belly scratches. My living situation doesn't allow me to take care of pets at home for now. I am very mobile in the city and will happily visit your neck of the woods. I understand it can be peculiar to welcome a stranger into your home to care for your precious companion. I offer a meet and greet free of charge in a neutral location (park, coffee shop, library) beforehand. You can then choose to go forward with my services or not with no strings attached. I also offer house sitting services for longer periods of time.
“Sara is a great find — super responsive, punctual, and took amazing care of my dog while I was away. She went the extra mile by taking him to different places, introducing him to her pup Mondo, and making sure he was happy. She fully depleted his battery, so now both of us are enjoying our respective time off. Highly recommend Sara!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Saint-Léonard
Anna was kind, communicative and thorough while looking after our cat. She took lots of pictures, sent detailed updates, and followed instructions perfectly. She even went above and beyond changing the bedding in the guest room after she left, even though that was not requested. Would gladly book her again!
I had a great experience with Catherine and strongly recommend her to anyone wanting peace of mind that their pet is well taken care while being away. I have a super anxious & spicy cat who does not tolerate change/strangers, she usually hides and starves herself until her routine is restored. Catherine was very patient and mindful of all the instructions I left her, she became a cat whisperer to my Koko in no time! She ate normally and even started comfortably hanging out in Catherine’s vicinity. Communication was great and I received regular updates, including fun videos of Catherine sweet talking her into relaxing. Needless to say this was such a relief as a worried cat mama being all the way across the ocean. I warmly recommend Catherine’s services for any of your pet-sitting needs!
Annabelle was amazing! I had a super last minute request and she was attentive, easy to work with, and listened to all of my elaborate tips and instructions. My Sphynx has some additional supplements and also ended up being in heat during the visit, but Annabelle made me feel super comfortable that Goblin was happy and safe while I was gone ☺️ will definitely rebook in the future and would recommend her to anyone!
Alessia cared for my cats on very short notice and even came to my apartment to meet the same day. She sent pictures throughout my trip, which made me feel completely at ease knowing my cats were in such good hands. She was incredibly supportive in a challenging living situation and communicated clearly and consistently the entire time. I highly recommend Alesia she is loving and attentive with animals and professional and reliable in every way. I will definitely be reaching out to her again.
Bien sûr 🙂 Voici la version modifiée : Très bonne expérience ! Deborah a été douce et affectueuse avec mon chat, qui l’a tout de suite aimée 🐱 Elle répondait toujours rapidement lorsque je lui écrivais. La maison était propre au retour et tout s’est très bien passé. Je me suis sentie en confiance. Merci encore !
I left my dog with Tanya for a long weekend, and I couldn’t have chosen a better sitter. Instantly I knew I’d have no concerns leaving my fur baby with her. Tanya has great energy, is really reliable, and communication and logistics were flawless. I came home to a clean home and very happy puppy. I’d recommend her to anyone and look forward to booking her again!!

FAQs for House Sitting - Saint-Léonard
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Saint-Léonard on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 1,147 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Saint-Léonard. Enter your postal code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Saint-Léonard 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.
Tip: 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 Saint-Léonard 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 Saint-Léonard 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, identity 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.
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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 87% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
