“J’ai eu une excellente expérience avec Audrey comme gardienne pour mon chien. Elle a fait preuve d’un grand professionnalisme, de douceur et d’attention. On sent immédiatement qu’elle aime les animaux, et mon chien s’est rapidement attaché à elle. À mon retour, mon chien était heureux, en confiance et visiblement très bien traité. Je recommande Audrey sans hésitation à toute personne qui cherche quelqu’un de fiable et attentionné pour s’occuper de son animal.”
“Un service impeeccable. Les hôtes sont passés à la maison pour rencontrer Kenji puis nous sommes allés visiter à notre tour pour voir s’il allait bien s’intégrer. Tout est fait en bonne et due forme pour que tout se passe bien. Par la suite, Kenji a été se faire garder chez Russell & Iris et nous avons été enchanté. Finale et attentionné, on reçoit des photos et suivis tout au long de la journée. Notre Kenji est revenu détendu et très content de sa journée. Anecdote: le jour de notre visite, il y avait du tonnerre et Kenji avait peur. Les deux enfants de Russell et Iris sont allés le réconforter sans jamais qu’on leur demande. C’est tortue une famille qui a accuilli chaleureusement notre Kenji. On recommande grandement et on y retourne certainement!”
“Jessica et Hanna sont tellement accueillant•es et bienveillant•es. Iels se sont rendu•es disponible pour un meet up de nos chiens quelques jours avant le gardiennage pour s’assurer que tout se passerait bien puisque c’était une première fois. Iels se sont assurer qu’Arlo se sente comme à la maison lors de son passage chez eux. Honnêtement ce sont de magnifiques personnes et je les recommandes sans l’ombre d’un doute. Ce sont maintenant des personnes de confiance pour nous et notre petit Arlo !”
“We're thrilled to have found Barkha and Pranay! They met our elderly dog's every need (of which there are many) and gave him a warm and comfortable home for the day. We'll definitely be back soon!”
“Melissa was super welcoming from the start. During the course of the day she sent me great pictures of Peaches with her new friend, Macy the poodle. I felt so good knowing she was meeting and getting along with others on her first day of doggy daycare. Best of all, when Peaches tweaked her ankle Melissa graciously and without hesitation took care of the vet consultation fees. I can understand why she comes so highly recommended.”
“Amazing dog sitter! Super friendly, took great care of my 1 year old golden retriever. He had day packed with fun activities and came home very happy. Thank you so much Gabby! I will definitely book again :)”
“I was very nervous about leaving my 19 week old puppy with a stranger. Chris was very responsive and helpful. My dog went with Chris without a problem. We had a great experience and I would use Chris again. Glad I have him as a resource for when I am in Montreal!”
About: I truly love spending time with dogs and treating each one like my own. I have plenty of experience with dogs of all ages, from playful pups who need to burn off energy to sweet seniors who just want a gentle walk and extra patience. I pay close attention to your pet’s personality and routine and I’ll always keep you updated with cute photos so you know they’re happy and well cared for! My daily routine is super flexible, which makes fitting in pet care easy and natural. I’m available throughout the day for morning or evening walks, as well as boarding. Because my schedule is open and consistent, your pet will get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection right when they need it. Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I treat every dog as if they were my own and always keeping dogs safely on-leash during walks. I keep my place calm, clean, and secure so your pet feels completely safe, happy, and loved.
About: Hi there! My name is Eva and I currently work in HR within the Edtech space. Outside of work, I'm usually cuddling up with my adorable 2-year-old cat, Peanut.

I work 9-5 in a fully remote environment, so I'm usually at home and will be close by your pet. I'd love to take your dog out for walks throughout the day. I live in an apartment complex that is gated. I'm happy to work with you on any special care or requirements that may be needed so that your pet feels safe and secured at all times.
“Richard a été génial avec Nova! En plus d'être accomodant, il se soucie clairement du bien être des animaux et Nova est heureuse de le revoir lorsqu'elle va se faire garder. Je recommande!”
“Excellent daycare for Jaxon! Leah sent me updates of Jaxon throughout the day and made sure he ate all his meal. We are truly greatful for Leah's help. Hope to see her again if we travel to Ottawa.”
About: Fr: Grandir avec des chiens dès l'âge de 7 ans m'a appris la véritable signification de l'engagement envers un animal. Pour moi, un animal de compagnie est un membre de la famille à part entière. Tout au long de ma vie, je me suis occupée à 100 % de l'éducation et du bien-être général de mes chiens : de leur alimentation, leurs bains et leurs promenades quotidiennes, jusqu'aux visites chez le vétérinaire, la prise de médicaments et un accompagnement rempli d'amour durant leur vieillesse. De plus, de manière autodidacte et avec beaucoup de patience, j'ai dressé mon dernier chien pour qu'il soit très obéissant, en lui apprenant des ordres comme s'asseoir, aboyer sur commande et chercher des objets. En: Growing up with dogs since I was 7 years old taught me the true meaning of commitment to an animal. For me, a pet is a full-fledged family member. Throughout my life, I have been 100% involved in the training and overall well-being of my dogs: from their feeding, baths, and daily walks, to vet visits, medication administration, and providing loving care through their senior years. Additionally, through self-teaching and a lot of patience, I trained my last dog to be very obedient, teaching him commands like sit, bark on command, and fetch objects. Fr: Aujourd'hui au Canada, je me consacre au soin des animaux. Le matin, je vais à l'école, puis je passe tout le reste de l'après-midi et la soirée à la maison. Je vis avec ma compagne, qui aime elle aussi énormément les animaux, ce qui signifie qu'il y a presque toujours une présence attentionnée à la maison. Notre horaire est idéal pour les animaux qui ont l'habitude de passer quelques heures seuls le matin en toute tranquillité. Dès mon retour l'après-midi, je me consacre entièrement à eux pour leurs promenades, leurs jeux et toute l'attention dont ils ont besoin. Disponibilité pour les promenades, garderie de jour et visites à domicile : • Du lundi au vendredi : de 15h00 à 22h00 • Samedi et dimanche : de 11h00 à 15h00. En: Today in Canada, I am fully dedicated to caring for pets. In the morning, I attend school, and then I spend the rest of the afternoon and evening at home. I live with my partner, who also loves animals very much, which means there is almost always an attentive presence at home. Our schedule is ideal for pets that are used to spending a few quiet hours alone in the morning. As soon as I return in the afternoon, I devote myself entirely to them for their walks, playtime, and all the attention they need. Availability for walks, daycare and drop-in visits: • Monday to Friday: 3:00 PM to 10:00 PM • Saturday and Sunday: 11:00 AM to 3:00 PM. Fr: J'offre un environnement familial, sécuritaire et rempli d'affection, que ce soit chez moi ou directement chez vous. Je m'adapte toujours aux besoins particuliers de votre animal et à ses routines d'exercice, de repas et de repos. Pour votre tranquillité d'esprit, j'envoie régulièrement des nouvelles accompagnées de photos et de vidéos lors de chaque visite ou promenade. De plus, comme je me déplace à vélo ou à pied dans mon quartier (Notre-Dame-de-Grâce et les environs), je garantis une excellente ponctualité à chaque rendez-vous. En: I offer a family-friendly, safe, and loving environment, whether at my home or directly at yours. I always adapt to your pet's specific needs and their exercise, feeding, and rest routines. For your peace of mind, I send regular updates with photos and videos during every visit or walk. Additionally, since I get around by bike or on foot in my neighborhood (Notre-Dame-de-Grâce and the surrounding areas), I guarantee excellent punctuality for every appointment.
“My dog was happy to stay with Donafel for the day. She got lots of exercise and came home relaxed and ready to nap. Donafel sent photos throughout the day and was flexible about the pick-up time. I will confidently leave my little dog with her again.”
About: I have loved and cared for animals since I was a child. Growing up, I had experience caring for many different kinds of animals, including cats, dogs, chickens, ducks, geese, silkworms, butterflies, ants, and mantises. Because of this, I learned early how to observe animals carefully, understand their needs, and be patient and gentle with different personalities. What sets me apart is my lifelong love for animals and my attention to detail. I understand that every pet has its own routine, comfort level, and personality. Some pets need space, some need extra attention, and some simply need a calm, clean, and safe environment. I’m happy to follow each owner’s instructions carefully and provide feeding, fresh water, playtime, litter box cleaning, walks, companionship, and photo updates. I will care for your pet with patience, respect, and genuine love, just like I would care for my own. I’m also very attentive to animal body language and behavior. I pay close attention to their signals, habits, comfort level, and boundaries. I understand that animals communicate in subtle ways, through posture, movement, sounds, energy, and routine changes. This helps me respond gently and appropriately, whether a pet needs space, reassurance, playtime, or extra care. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I spend a lot of time at home and can provide regular attention throughout the day. I’m available for feeding, fresh water, playtime, litter box cleaning, photo updates, and gentle companionship. I’m also flexible with each pet’s routine and will follow the owner’s instructions carefully. In my home, I provide a calm, clean, and cat-friendly environment. We have experience caring for cats, and our home has litter boxes, cat toys, scratching posts, cat trees, cozy resting areas, and food and water bowls. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and respected. I understand that every pet has a different personality, so I give shy cats space and offer attention to cats who enjoy company. I keep the litter area clean, follow feeding instructions carefully, and send photo updates so owners can feel reassured while they are away. In a client’s home, I will respect their space, follow their instructions, keep everything tidy, and make sure their pet has fresh water, food, a clean litter box, and calm companionship.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Saint-Mathieu is $28 per day as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $28 per day. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
There are 1,011 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in Saint-Mathieu. About 89% of Saint-Mathieu 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.
Help your dog become familiar with the day-care environment before their first full day. Arrange a Meet & Greet so they can visit the sitter’s home, meet the sitter and any resident pets, and explore the space while you are there. This can make the environment feel more familiar and help you and the sitter confirm that the setup is right for your dog.
Pack anything you and the sitter have agreed your dog will need, such as:
- Their usual food and approved treats, with feeding instructions
- Medication, with clear dosage instructions, if needed
- Their collar or harness and other walking equipment
- Familiar comfort items, such as a blanket or favourite toy
- Any seasonal gear they may need
On the day of the booking, keep your dog’s normal routine as consistent as possible, including their usual meal, toilet break, and some light exercise. Keep drop-off calm and brief, which may help make the transition easier.
If your dog is shy, nervous, or needs more time to adjust to unfamiliar places, ask whether a shorter introductory stay is possible before their first full day.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. Every sitter on Rover has their own routine and some may offer flexible activities suited for your dog. 93% of sitters in your city can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays.
These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Saint-Mathieu commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in QC ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines such as the DHPP or DA2PP, Rabies, and Bordetella.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 88% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
