About: J'ai découvert une passion pour la balade de chien, lors d'une activité offerte pour la SPCA qui propose la promenade de chien. J'adorerais pouvoir offrir les services pour faire d'une pierre deux coups : atteindre mon objectif de pas par jour et ce en bonne compagnie. Je débute ma retraire et m'occuper des animaux fera partie d'une bonne séance de zoothérapie. Comme, je suis nouvellement retraitrée, j'ai beaucoup de disponibilités à offrir selon vos besoins. Dans le but, de permettre à votre animal de se dégourdir les pattes. J'interviendrai selon les demandes et les besoins du propriétaire. Soit, aller me promener avec l'animal, le brosser, jouer avec lui et au besoin lui admisnistrer des médicaments.

About: ENGLISH: I have been caring for animals since I was 6 years old and have experience with a variety of pets. I am responsible, patient, and attentive to each animal’s needs. I am comfortable with feeding, walking, cleaning, and providing companionship, and I always strive to ensure pets are safe, healthy, and well cared for while in my care. FRANÇAIS: Je m’occupe d’animaux depuis l’âge de 6 ans et j’ai de l’expérience avec une variété d’animaux de compagnie. Je suis une personne responsable, patiente et attentive aux besoins de chaque animal. Je suis à l’aise avec des tâches comme nourrir, promener, nettoyer et offrir de la compagnie aux animaux. Mon objectif est toujours de m’assurer que chaque animal est en sécurité, heureux et bien pris en charge pendant qu’il est sous mes soins. ENGLISH: I have very flexible schedule and am available nearly every day, including weekdays, weekends, and holidays. I often accept bookings on short notice and will contact you if anything. FRANÇAIS: J’ai un horaire très flexible et je suis disponible presque tous les jours, y compris les jours de semaine, les fins de semaine et les jours fériés. J’accepte souvent les réservations de dernière minute et je vous contacterai si quelque chose change dans mon horaire. ENGLISH: Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to get to know each pet's routine, personality, and any special needs they may have. I always follow the owner's instructions carefully, keep a close eye on pets during walks and visits, and make sure they are in a safe, secure environment. I also believe in clear communication and will keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely spend time outside under supervision, as well as air conditioning to keep pets comfortable during warmer weather. There are no other animals in my home, creating a calm and quiet environment where your pet can receive my full attention and care. FRANÇAIS: La sécurité et le confort de votre animal sont toujours mes priorités. Je prends le temps d’apprendre à connaître la routine, la personnalité et les besoins particuliers de chaque animal. Je suis toujours attentif aux consignes des propriétaires, je surveille attentivement les animaux pendant les promenades et les visites, et je m’assure qu’ils restent dans un environnement sécuritaire et adapté. Je crois également à l’importance d’une bonne communication et je vous tiendrai au courant avec des messages et des photos afin que vous puissiez avoir l’esprit tranquille pendant votre absence. J’ai une cour entièrement clôturée où les chiens peuvent passer du temps à l’extérieur en toute sécurité sous surveillance, ainsi que la climatisation pour assurer leur confort pendant les périodes de chaleur. Il n’y a aucun autre animal dans ma maison, ce qui crée un environnement calme et paisible où votre animal pourra recevoir toute mon attention et mes soins.

About: Nous avons toujours été les personnes de notre famille et de notre cercle d’amis qu’on appelle lorsqu’il faut faire garder un animal. Ayant grandi entourés de chiens et de chats, nous avons développé une grande aisance et un réel plaisir à nous en occuper. N’ayant pas d’animaux présentement, nous adorons pouvoir en prendre soin via cette application. Nous sommes un couple d’ingénieurs travaillant tous les deux à temps plein de la maison. Cela nous permet d’être très présents et disponibles pour vos compagnons tout au long de la journée. Nous faisons régulièrement des promenades le matin, le midi et en soirée. Nous aimons tous les animaux — chiens, chats, petits, grands, timides ou enjoués — chacun reçoit toute notre attention et notre affection. Nous avons une grande cour entourée de haies de cèdre, offrant un environnement sécuritaire. Nous sommes également à l’aise d’utiliser des cages au besoin, selon vos habitudes. Comme nous n’avons pas d’animaux à la maison, le vôtre sera au centre de notre attention. We’ve always been the people our family and friends rely on when they need someone to care for their pets. Having both grown up with dogs and cats, we’re very comfortable around animals and genuinely enjoy spending time with them. Since we don’t currently have pets of our own, we love being able to care for them through this app. We are a couple of engineers working full-time from home, which allows us to be very present and attentive throughout the day. We typically go for walks in the morning, at lunch, and in the evening. We truly enjoy the company of all animals — dogs, cats, small, large, shy, or playful — each one gets our full attention and care. We have a large yard surrounded by cedar hedges, providing a safe outdoor space. We’re also comfortable using crates if needed, depending on your pet’s routine. Since we don’t have pets of our own, yours will receive our full focus and attention. Nous travaillons de la maison à temps plein, assurant une présence constante. L’un de nous étant travailleur autonome avec un horaire très flexible, nous pouvons facilement nous adapter aux besoins spécifiques de votre animal tout au long de la journée. We both work from home full-time, ensuring constant presence. One of us is self-employed with a highly flexible schedule, allowing us to easily adapt to your pet’s specific needs throughout the day. Nous envoyons régulièrement des photos et des nouvelles pour vous garder rassuré pendant votre absence. We provide regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away.

About: I’ve had animals my entire life and caring for them has always been one of my biggest passions. I previously worked at the SPCA because I strongly believe in animal welfare and rescue over supporting pet stores. Over the years I’ve cared for rats, rabbits, bunnies, geckos, hamsters, birds, squirrels, pigs, cats, and dogs. Every species has different physical and mental needs, and I take the time to learn what allows each animal to truly thrive—not just survive. I’ve never believed in keeping animals in the small cages sold in most pet stores. Instead, I build large, custom enclosures designed specifically for each individual animal’s needs, giving them plenty of room to explore, play, and live comfortably. Daily care is something I take very seriously. Every animal receives individual attention, enrichment, playtime, fresh food and water, and their living space is spot-cleaned and maintained every single day to ensure they stay healthy, happy, and stress-free. Whether I’m caring for my own animals or someone else’s, I treat every pet as if they were my own family. My goal is always to provide a safe, enriching, and loving environment where every animal receives the care, patience, and respect they deserve. Pet sitting fits well into my schedule because I have a flexible routine and can plan my days around the pets in my care. I make it a priority to stick to each pet’s normal feeding, exercise, and medication schedule, and I’m available for morning, afternoon, evening, or overnight visits depending on the owner’s needs. I only take on a manageable number of pets at a time so that every animal receives the time, attention, and care they deserve. I always follow each pet’s normal routine to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’ll make sure they have fresh food and water, a clean living space, plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection based on their personality. I pay close attention to their behavior and well-being, keep your home clean and secure, and will happily send regular photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

About: I have extensive experience caring for dogs and cats through long-term house sitting as well as throughout my personal life. Over the years, friends, family, and homeowners have trusted me to care for their pets while they traveled, including extended stays in Australia, New York, and Las Vegas. In Australia, I cared for a Poodle and a cat for one month while staying in the owners’ home. In New York, I looked after a Dogo Argentino for one month. In Las Vegas, I completed two additional long-term house sits: one for a month with a Chihuahua and a large Golden Retriever, and another for four weeks caring for two medium-sized dogs—a mixed breed and a Poodle. Beyond house sitting, I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life. I grew up with breeds of all sizes, from Weimaraner's to Poodles, and have also cared for Cocker Spaniels, Schnauzers, and many mixed breeds. Friends, family, and roommates regularly trusted me to care for their dogs while they were away, often for a week or longer. I’ve also fostered rescue dogs until they found loving permanent homes. I’m comfortable adapting to each pet’s unique personality and routine, and I always prioritize their safety, comfort, and well-being while keeping owners updated throughout their stay. I work remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide pets with plenty of attention throughout the day. I can easily adapt to your pet’s routine, whether they need walks, playtime, feeding, medication reminders, or simply companionship. I’m available on weekdays, evenings, weekends, and holidays with advance notice. I live in a spacious 5½ apartment that provides a quiet, comfortable, and pet-friendly environment. One of the bedrooms is rarely used, giving pets extra space to relax if they prefer a quieter area. The apartment has built-in air conditioning to keep pets comfortable year-round, as well as a large private back terrace where they can safely enjoy fresh air and sunshine between potty breaks. I’m just a 3-minute walk from Parc La Fontaine, making it easy to provide regular walks, exercise, and plenty of outdoors. I always follow each pet’s routine and the owner’s instructions to help them feel safe, comfortable, and at home during their stay.

About: Ayant des animaux depuis toute jeune, je comprends très bien la complexité de les faire garder ou bien d'avoir quelqu'un pour s'occuper d'eux (surtout avec la vie, le travail, les enfants etc !). Je considère avoir de très bonnes bases en comportement canin, obéissance, soins de base pour chats, chiens, oiseaux, poissons. J'ai également eu des animaux avec certaines complexités médicales alors sachez que je suis à l'aise avec vos poilus avec besoins particuliers. Mon entourage sait à quel point j'aime mes animaux et ceux de mes proches. J'ai aidé plusieurs personnes près de moi avec leurs animaux et j'ai donc décidé d'offrir ce service via Rover puisque moi-même j'ai eu besoin de ce service et j'ai adoré le fonctionnement. J'ai la chance d'avoir un emploi en mode hybride donc flexibilité, stabilité et présence (surtout pour nos amis anxieux!) c'est ce que j'offre pour la garde. Pour les visites ponctuelles, je peux organiser mon horaire afin de venir faire des visites à votre domicile selon la distance. Ici nous avons une grande cours clôturée donc les chiens peuvent également courir et s'amuser en liberté. Nous avons une superbe piste cyclable à proximité ainsi que des parcs à chiens si c'est ce dont votre animal a besoin. Pour vos chats, le chien et les chats ici sont à l'aise avec des amis et dans le cas où votre animal est plutôt réservé il y a définitivement moyen de lui donner son espace. Pour les visites ponctuelles ou les garde à votre domicile, vos règles sont les miennes ! Votre chien a besoin de se faire chanter une chanson en faisant 2 tours sur moi-même pour qu'il mange ? Je suis partante. Votre chat a besoin de son mantra quotidien pour être heureux? Je suis partante. Aucun paramètre autour du bien-être d'un animal n'est farfelu pour moi 🐕 N'hésitez pas à m'écrire pour avoir plus d'infos. Il me fera plaisir de discuter avec vous!

Florence was so good with Pancho! She asked questions about his routine, gave me really detailed updates after she left. She started to develop a nice relationship with him after just a few visits. Will definately keep contacting her for Pancho’s visits and walks. I know he is in great hands!

About: Je m’occupe de mes deux bassets à la maison, j’ai eu un élevage pendant deux ans où la femelle basset originaire de la Bretagne m’a fait une très belle portée dont les chiots étaient tous en santé. J’ai gardé le dernier chiot son nom est Rocky il est très gentil. Avec mes deux bassets, nous nous promenons deux fois par jour petite balade du matin et balade de l’après-midi on sort souvent pour des sorties d’une heure, dont le parc à chien où nous aimons vraiment beaucoup socialiser, et se défouler, nous aimons les autres amis, car nous sommes faits pour vivre en meute. Si je me déplace, j’effectue toujours une surveillance d’hygiène, nettoyage des pipis s’il y a lieu et remise en état de la pièce donner la nourriture, puis s’assurer qu’ils ont toujours de l’eau, jouer et aller dehors et faire les soins routine, lavage des oreilles, lavage des dents, lavage du poil, brosser le poil et s’assurer qu ils sont en pleine santé.

About: Je suis adjointe juridique et mon mari est militaire. Nous faisons deux jours de télétravail chacun alors une seule journée où les animaux sont seuls pendant 8h. Une marche par jour de 45 minutes la semaine et la fin de semaine on aime bien aller faire de la randonnée! J’ai eu la chance de m’occuper de plusieurs animaux au fil des ans, autant les miens que ceux de mes proches ou de clients. Je suis à l’aise avec les chiens de tous âges, y compris les chien plus agés, et je prends le temps d’apprendre à connaître leur tempérament pour m’adapter à eux. Je suis rigoureuse quand il s’agit de suivre une routine, de respecter les consignes (alimentation, médication, promenades, etc.) et d’assurer leur bien-être. Ce qui me distingue, c’est ma patience, mon écoute et ma capacité à créer un lien de confiance autant avec les animaux qu’avec leurs humains. J’ai toujours eu un lien spécial avec les animaux. Pour moi, chaque compagnon mérite d’être traité avec douceur, respect et beaucoup d’amour — comme si c’était le mien. Je suis patiente, attentionnée, et j’accorde beaucoup d’importance à suivre vos consignes, parce que je sais que chaque animal a ses petites habitudes et que chaque personne a sa propre façon de l’élever. Je suis aussi quelqu’un de calme, souriante, positive et toujours prête à créer un environnement rassurant et joyeux pour vos animaux pendant votre absence. Notre belle cour clôturée permet aux chiens de pouvoir profiter du soleil et de s'amuser dans un environnement sécuritaire et surveillé!

You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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 Sainte-Julie 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.

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 86% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
