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.

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!

“Maire was an absolute dream sitter! She stopped in for visits with my anxious 2 year old cat while we were away for 6 days. She was great at communicating and sent lots of photos and updates for each visit. My shy boy instantly loved her and I felt so relieved that he didn't just hide away all week. She had him playing and snuggling. We had an unexpected vet visit just before we left for our trip and she was so great at accommodating the last minute addition to his care. I couldn't recommend her more!! If we need a sitter again I would definitely hope she'd available.”

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for a variety of pets, including cats, rabbits, and guinea pigs. I’ve also cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments, including large and reactive dogs. I love getting outside for walks and am even happy to go for a run with your dog if that’s something they enjoy! I’m comfortable adapting to each animal’s individual needs, personality, and routine, and I always aim to provide attentive, patient, and loving care. Whether your pet needs a little extra exercise, companionship, or special attention, I’ll treat them like one of my own! I work as a supervisor and assistant head coach at a rock climbing gym, alongside part-time work in a GIS research lab. Most of my shifts are in the evenings, so I’m generally available during mornings and afternoons. I have a flexible schedule and take pride in being reliable, punctual, and consistent when it comes to caring for your pets and sticking to their routines. I prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine while respecting your home and instructions. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs, including feeding, medication, and exercise. I also believe in clear communication and am happy to provide regular updates and photos for peace of mind while you’re away.

About: I take the time to learn each dog’s personality, energy level, and routine so they feel secure and understood. Whether your dog is playful and energetic or calm and cuddly, I adjust to their needs and make sure they get the right balance of exercise, affection, and companionship Pet care fits very naturally into my weekly routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. I make sure to plan my schedule around the pets I’m caring for so they receive consistent attention, walks, and playtime without feeling rushed. I care for pets the way I’d want someone to care for my own. I follow their normal routine, make sure they’re fed on time, get their walks, playtime, and lots of love and attention. In your home, I respect your space and keep things clean while making sure your pet feels comfortable and relaxed. In my home, I create a safe, calm space where they can play, rest, and feel at home. Most importantly, I give them patience, affection, and genuine care

“We can’t say enough wonderful things about Eve. She took care of our two cats, Nero and Princess Margaret, with daily visits while we were on vacation, and we felt completely at ease knowing they were in such loving, capable hands. Eve sent us photos every day, which was such a thoughtful touch and really reassured us that our kitties were happy and well cared for. Our cats are a bit shy, but they absolutely adored her which speaks volumes about her nature. It’s clear that she genuinely loves animals and treats them like her own. We would without hesitation book Eve again and plan to use her every time we travel. Highly, highly recommended!”

About: I have years of experience caring for dogs, from puppies to seniors. Growing up with dogs and cats, I developed a deep understanding of their needs. I've dog-sat for multiple families, ensuring their pets feel safe and loved. I’m attentive to each dog's unique personality, providing personalized care, walks, and playtime. If your dog needs a lot of activity, I would love to take them on a run or long walk. If they just need to relax, we can settle for a short walk and a movie day. Whether your dog needs extra attention or just a friendly companion, I am committed to giving them the best experience while you're away. I am available for weekend boarding for your pets or walks/visits after 4pm on weekdays (time may vary depending on the destination of your home). I live in a second story apartment with direct acccess to a backyard and to the street. Your pet will have plenty of room inside to play and run around.

Omg Chloe was amazing! I’m so grateful she accepted such a last minute booking and was so responsive and professional. My little benson has separation anxiety and doesn’t usually adjust to new people so easily but clearly Chloe has a calm and warm presence that she couldn’t resist. Chloe had no problem getting her to play and administering her medication. Will definitely book again!!!!

Came through for us and Tigger (our 14.5 year old senior Beagle who at this point needs a human around when we have to leave the house) on short notice.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Saint-Raymond

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Saint-Raymond is $24 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $38 per visit. 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 1,809 sitters on Rover for Pet Sitting in Saint-Raymond. About 84% 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.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

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-Raymond 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 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.

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.

Payment is handled securely through Rover. For a one-time booking, your payment method is charged at the time of checkout when you submit your booking request. This charge will include fees payable to Rover. Your booking is confirmed once the sitter accepts it.

If the request is not accepted, the pending charge is released in 1-7 days. How long it takes to disappear from your account depends on your payment provider.

For eligible recurring weekly services, you are charged for the first week when you book and then each Monday for the upcoming week. You’ll see the full price before you confirm. Always pay through Rover so your booking remains eligible for the Rover Guarantee and support.

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

  • 82% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 85% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 92% 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.
