Steven is wonderful, he took excellent care of my french bulldog for 3 days in a row, made my dog feel confortable. He's good at keeping you updated with pictures and he's quick at responding texts. Five starts.

About: Les chiens ont toujours occupé une grande place dans nos vies. On a tous les deux grandi avec eux et on a adoré chaque instant. Au fil des années, on a partagé notre maison avec un basset hound, un bouvier bernois, un toy poodle, un carlin et un berger de pologne, et on les a tous entraînés nous-mêmes. Chacun avait sa propre personnalité et son propre tempérament, et chacun nous a appris quelque chose de nouveau ! On est un couple actif et on adore vraiment emmener les chiens en course ou en longue balade. On n'a pas de chien à la maison en ce moment, alors honnêtement, ce serait un vrai plaisir de se balader et de courir avec le vôtre. Que votre chien soit du genre canapé ou débordant d'énergie, on s'adaptera à son rythme et à son style. Dogs have always been a big part of our lives. We both grew up with them and loved every moment of it. Over the years, we've shared our home with a basset hound, a bernese mountain dog, a toy poodle, a pug, and a polish lowland sheepdog, and trained them all ourselves. Each one had their own personality and temperament, and each one taught us something new! We're an active couple and genuinely love bringing dogs along for runs or long walks. We currently don't have a dog at home, so honestly, it would be such a pleasure to go on walks and runs with yours. Whether your pup is a couch potato or a bundle of energy, we will adapt and match their style. On travaille tous les deux de la maison la plupart du temps, ce qui nous donne une belle flexibilité dans nos journées. On peut facilement intégrer des visites et des promenades à notre routine, sans que ça soit fait à la va-vite. Que ce soit une balade le matin, un check-in en milieu de journée ou une visite en après-midi, on s'adapte à l'horaire de votre animal. We both work from home most days, which means our days are pretty flexible. We can easily fit drop-in visits and dog walks into our routine without it feeling rushed. Whether it's a morning walk, a midday check-in, or an afternoon visit, we're able to adapt to your pet's schedule rather than the other way around! Quand on se rend chez vous, notre priorité c'est que votre animal se sente en sécurité et à l'aise dans son propre espace. On sait que les animaux sont toujours plus détendus dans un environnement familier, alors on respecte leurs routines, leurs habitudes, et on prend le temps de laisser les animaux plus timides ou nerveux apprivoiser notre présence à leur propre rythme. Pour les promenades, on reste attentifs en tout temps. On observe le langage corporel, on reste dans des zones sécuritaires et on s'assure que chaque sortie soit une belle expérience pour votre chien. Votre maison et votre animal sont entre des mains attentionnées et bienveillantes ! When we come to your home, our priority is making sure your pet feels safe and comfortable in their own space. We know that animals are always more relaxed in a familiar environment, so we follow their routines, respect their habits, and take the time to let shy or nervous pets warm up to us at their own pace. For dog walks, we stay attentive at all times. We keep an eye on body language, stay in safe areas, and make sure every outing is a good experience for your pup. Your home and your pet are in careful, caring hands!

About: My partner and I have been caring for dogs together for years through Rover, building a strong track record of happy pets and glowing reviews on his profile. Now that we have moved to Montreal, I am starting my own account so local dog parents can book us directly. Same team, same care, same love. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted us to walk, feed, bathe, and keep their pets happy and comfortable. We also foster dogs and are actively involved with a rescue organization here in Montreal, so we are experienced with dogs of all backgrounds, temperaments, and needs. We are excited to bring that same warmth and dedication to pups here. We treat every dog like our own. We work as a team, so your dog always has someone around. We are available for boarding, drop-in visits, and walks, and we will make sure your pup gets plenty of attention, outdoor time, and love every single day. We both work from home :) We live in a pet friendly apartment with a balcony, giving your pup fresh air and a change of scenery throughout the day. Our home is calm, clean, and set up with your dog’s comfort and safety in mind. We have no pets of our own, so your dog gets our full, undivided attention. We are happy to follow any routines, dietary needs, or rules you have in place to make your pup feel right at home.

About: I worked as a professional dog groomer for almost 10 years and also have experience working at a dog daycare, so I’m comfortable handling everything from energetic puppies to senior dogs, as well as small and large breeds. I have a small Pomeranian named Brie. She is 2 years old, weighs 2.5 kg, and is full of energy! She absolutely loves playing with other dogs and is the center of my world. Because of her, I truly understand how important it is to find someone you can completely trust to care for your pet. I work from home, so your dog will have plenty of company throughout the day and will rarely be left alone. If I ever need to step out, it’s only for a short errand, and I always make sure your dog is safe and comfortable. Every dog has their own routine, and I believe it’s important to keep them as comfortable as possible while you’re away. I carefully follow all the instructions you provide, from feeding schedules and medication (if needed) to potty breaks, playtime, and walking routines. Whether your dog prefers several short walks throughout the day or longer adventures, I’m happy to adapt to their individual needs. I live just minutes from Angrignon Park, which is a wonderful place for enriching walks, fresh air, and plenty of new sights and smells for dogs who enjoy exploring. I treat every dog as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. My goal is to provide exceptional care for your dog and complete peace of mind for you. Because I work from home, dogs in my care receive plenty of attention and companionship throughout the day and are rarely left alone. I also believe in keeping each dog as comfortable as possible by following the their routine, from feeding schedules and medications (if needed) to walks, playtime, and rest. Every dog has their own routine, and I believe it’s important to keep them as comfortable as possible while you’re away. I carefully follow all the instructions you provide, from feeding schedules and medication (if needed) to potty breaks, playtime, and walking routines. Whether your dog prefers several short walks throughout the day or longer adventures, I’m happy to adapt to their individual needs.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, so being around them just feels normal to me, not like a job. I grew up with a German Shepherd, and over the years I’ve also taken care of a friend’s Labrador and a dachshund, so I’m comfortable with all kinds of sizes and personalities. I recently went through puppy training classes with my own dog Logan, so I’ve got hands-on experience with puppies as well as senior dogs. I pay attention, I’m patient, and I genuinely enjoy the company. Dogs have always just been part of my day, so fitting care into my routine isn’t really a stretch for me. I’ve got time built in for walks and hanging out, and I’m easy to reach if plans need to shift. Happy to chat about what your dog’s used to so we can keep things familiar for them. I treat every dog like I’d want my own treated, because I’ve got one at home myself, my Mini Schnauzer Logan. Water’s always out, there’s a comfortable spot to settle in, and I keep an eye on how they’re doing, especially if we’re somewhere new. I’m attentive and calm.

About: Since childhood, caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life. After recently relocating from Toronto to Montreal, I’ve continued doing what I love most — giving pets the tender, attentive, and loving care they deserve. Over the years, family and friends have trusted me with all kinds of precious pets, including tropical fish, rabbits, parrots, hamsters, kittens, mature cats, and dogs of many breeds such as German Shepherds, Pomeranians, Scottish Terriers, Dachshunds, and more! With 35+ years of hands-on pet care experience, I can confidently guarantee your furry (or feathered!) companion will be in caring and capable hands. I currently have a miniature Dachshund named Milo, whom I adopted from a Montreal rescue when he was just 7 months old — and now he’s almost 13 years younger! Milo absolutely loves making new playful friends and enjoys daily and weekly companionship. Your paw-purr baby will receive fully dedicated, attentive care including: • 15–30 minute walks every 2–3 hours • Plenty of cuddles, affection, and playtime • Careful attention to feeding routines and special needs • Frequent photo and video updates hourly and/or daily Being a true animal lover isn’t just something I do — it’s simply who I am! 🐇🐠🐕‍🦺🐢🐈🦎🐟🦜🐾 Working full-time from home allows me to offer flexible scheduling throughout the week, including weekends. I also provide optional pick-up and drop-off services for a small additional fee for added convenience. 🐾 I take pride in maintaining a very clean and well-organized home—something friends and family would happily confirm. My bright 1-bedroom unit receives plenty of natural sunlight and features hardwood floors, along with soft plush toys to ensure a safe and comfortable space for your pets to play.

Netra and Julian are amazing dog sitters. They took their time to get to know our dog. Our dog can be anxious when left alone but they were very patient with him and did their best to comfort him. They went for a long walk, played pet him when necessary! Your dog is in very good care with this lovely couple.

About: I've been dog sitting for over 4 years and genuinely love caring for dogs. I also have a dog of my own (3 year old Ollie) who is very friendly and loves the company of other dogs. I provide a safe, loving and comfortable environment and since I work from home, pets receive plenty of attention, companionship, walks and playtime throughout the day! My schedule is very flexible since I work from home full-time, which allows me to easily incorporate pet care into my daily routine. Walks, playtime, feeding, and cuddles are naturally part of my day, and your dog will be rarely left alone for long periods. My home is a safe, calm and pet friendly space. I closely supervise the dogs throughout the day and make sure they are comfortable and secure. I keep a clean and organized space, free of hazards, and I always follow your dog's routine, dietary needs, and owner instructions carefully. My dog is well-socialized and I can do introductions prior to ensure a positive experience for everyone.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Saint-Raymond

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Saint-Raymond on Rover is $33.3 per day (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Doggy Day Care 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 Doggy Day Care. For more information on service fees, click here .

There are 981 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in Saint-Raymond. About 87% of Saint-Raymond 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.

Your dog’s first day care experience is a big milestone! To help your pup settle in comfortably, we recommend:

  • Food and treats portioned for the day, with feeding instructions
  • Your dog's leash and collar (ensure tags are up-to-date)
  • Any seasonal gear, such as paw-safe wax for winter or a cooling vest for the summer
  • Medication, if applicable, with clear dosage notes
  • Any special care instructions or training tips to help your sitter provide the most personalized care possible

Tip: Upload this information directly through the Rover app before drop-off. The more context you provide, the better your sitter can tailor the day to your dog.

Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!

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-Raymond 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.

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:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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 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.
