Cat Sitting in Val-des-Monts

“Isabelle took amazing care of our cat Layla while we were on vacation. It was nice to have picture updates while we were gone and see Layla was being well-fed and looked after. Isabelle will be the first person we call when we go away in the future :) Merci Isabelle!”

“Un de nos chiens est très vieux et j’avais quelques craintes de partir de la maison. Alys-Mia a été formidable! Elle nous a tenu au courant lors de ses visites (photos/messages) et a pris en considération les différents besoins de Théo et de Gustave. Nous ne pouvions demander mieux et nous avons pu profiter de notre escapade l’esprit en paix. Merci Alys-Mia!”

“Jonny came to watch my 2 dogs and 3 cats while I was out of town for the evening and it went perfectly. I don't go out often because of the stress of a pet sitter, but Jonny did such a good job of making me comfortable and providing amazing care to my pets. My pets love him, even my shy cat that doesn't really like anyone. I will be booking with Jonny again!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs through every stage of life, from puppies to seniors, and understand how their needs change over time. I’m patient with puppies, consistent with adult dogs’ routines, and gentle and attentive with senior dogs who may need extra care. I’m comfortable administering medications, including oral meds and injections, and I carefully follow all care and health instructions. I also have knowledge of canine CPR and stay calm and focused in emergency situations. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priority. I treat every dog as if they were my own, and I promise to give them love, attention, and care while you’re away. I have a very open schedule as I do make my own. I have a vehicle so this also makes it easy to commute to and from your home. I provide personalized care for your pets in the comfort of their own home. I follow their routines for feeding, walks, playtime, and quiet companionship, and I’m comfortable administering medications or injections if needed. I make sure your pets feel safe, happy, and loved, while keeping their home tidy and giving you peace of mind.

About: I’ve cared for dogs and pets for over 15 years and have experience with puppies, senior dogs, anxious pets, and different breeds and personalities. I currently have dogs of my own and understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone trustworthy, patient, and caring. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment with plenty of walks, playtime, attention, and cuddles. I’m comfortable following feeding schedules, administering basic medications if needed, and keeping owners updated with photos and messages for peace of mind. Your pet will be treated like family while in my care 🐾 Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and loving environment where pets are treated like family.

About: ROVER is my favourite way to enjoy pets and new areas. I work as an education assistant. I work short days on a full time basis. I am able to take weekdays within Ottawa if your pets can be left alone during the day. Weekends, holidays and summers I can go anywhere for my Rover clients. I am currently also in business for myself as a BreathWork & Transformation coach, and have workshops both online and in person. I am certified as a Spiritual coach, Meditation coach, and Manifestation coach. I have both a SSW and Business Management Diploma. I believe in continuous learning. Since I was born, I have always had a pet in my life. The dogs I have loved included a German Shepherd, a Shepherd mix, a Husky mix, a Shih Tzu, a Rottweiler /Boxer mix and a Boxer /French Pin mix. The cats in my life included a Calico mix, a Tiger mix, and a Manx. As my life goals are coming to fruition, I know that this is not the right time for me to personally home, love, and care for an animal of my own. My children are all grown, and I am currently more interested in traveling, whether in my own backyard or halfway around the world, I want to see all that I can!! I LOVE to have new adventures, I am simply here to provide the love I have for my own pets to your precious furry family member while enjoying your city, town or neighbourhood. My home is currently in Ottawa, and as I have been recently hired as an education, assistant, I am able to take Rover clients on weekdays within the Ottawa area, if you are close to Orleans. Most weekdays, I may be at work for 7 hours. On weekends, holidays and summers, I am able to travel further for my Rover clients. Much of my family lives in Cornwall, so I love the opportunity to take clients there. I am also willing to drive to Montreal, Pembroke/Petawawa, Kingston, Toronto or Niagara Falls areas if you need me for 1 week or longer. I am able to take your dogs out for short walks, weather permitting, if they are not pullers. As I don’t drink, smoke cigarettes, or use drugs, that will never be happening in your home. I have great energy that animals can feel. Most timid or shy dogs warm up to me faster than you would except. My reviews showcase the results. I have a clear criminal record as well as a clear vulnerable police record.

About: For as long as I can remember, I have always loved all pets and animals. Growing up in Italy, my family always loved to have a non-human family member to take care of. My fondest childhood memories were playing with our labrador retriever, Lola, and later adopting another dog named Spenk (named after a popular anime cartoon charater in Italy at the time) in my adolescence. We also had pet chipmunks at one time! I continued living with and taking care of dogs while I lived with host families in Austrailia and New Zealand in my 20s. When I moved to Canada and later met my now-wife, she was a dogsitter through Rover. It was through her that I was able to discover this opportunity and help her with the various responsibilities that came with petsitting. I find taking care of pets in this way to be so rewarding - it boosted my mood, and helped get me moving! Unfortunately, my wife is no longer able to continue being a petsitter due to the committments of her current full-time job. However, since moving to the National Capital Region, we have regularly watched our friends' pets, both at our house and theirs. We both agree, that we really hope to have a pet of our own one day, but for now the best way to fill that void is for me to continue petsitting. I always find it so exciting to have a new "friend" be apart of my day that I can't help but give them my undivided attention. No matter this age, size, or energy level of your pet, I will always stive to give them the exact amount of play, walks, bathroom breaks, treats, and overall attention they may need. We're very lucky to live in a very walk-able neighbourhood near the Gatineau River and Lac Leamy, so regular walks are doable. Pet owners need to have a great deal of trust in their petsitters. Whenever I watch pets, I love to have constant communication with the owner - sending them regular updates and photos throughout the day. Even if their pet is having no problems and seemingly a very happy time, it's still important that the owners know that so they feel more at ease. We thankfully have a very large backyard which would make bathroom breaks very easy, however, at the moment our yard is not fenced, so I would only feel comfortable taking them on bathroom breaks both on-leash and supervised. We're very lucky to live in a very walk-able neighbourhood near the Gatineau River and Lac Leamy, so regular walks are doable. Additionally, we live in a bungalow with a door that closes, so we can block off stairs if that is also a concern for you.

About: I’m an animal lover to the core. Growing up, we always had both cats and dogs. I have experience taking care of pets, whether it’s taking dogs on long walks or tending to indoor cats with various temperaments. I have over 20 years of experience dog walking and pet sitting for friends, family and neighbours. I also enjoy teaching pets new tricks and commands, and making my own homemade cat and dog treats. I have a chatty, cuddly cat named Mowgli and have a deep understanding of the roles our pets play in our lives. Our pets become members of our family, with their unique personalities, quirks, and unconditional love. I have plenty of time to dedicate to play with your pets while you’re away! I currently work from home 4 days a week from Mon-Fri and am free on weekends. I’m available for boarding anytime, and for house drop-ins anytime. It would be my pleasure to create meow-gnificant experiences for your pet. I have a large home for your pets to roam around in, and a dedicated room for fur babies who might require their own room to sleep in at night. In addition, I have a backyard and live in a neighbourhood with many walking trails and parks outside my door. My friendly, affectionate cat likes to play with other cats and dogs of all shapes and sizes. You’re barking up the right tree; your four-legged friend will be in safe care while you’re out of town.

About: I live in the Orleans area which means there is so much neighborhood to go for walks and runs! I am available fulltime Monday to Sunday. I have had animals all my life! As of now I have 2 dogs, a german shepherd mix and a husky mix. I current walk dogs for a living with a company but would love to try this out on my own. I am a huge animal lover and I treat them like they are my own, with love. I am very flexible with whatever needs you and your dogs may have, i can do last minute calls and more than happy to be with your animal.I hope to meet you and your little one soon ! ! Thanks. I currently walk dogs everyday with a company that I absolutely love! But i’m very flexible with times and can always make time for your pets. i pay very much attention to pet care instructions and i always make sure your animals are happy. they will be in good hands!! :)

About: Je m'occupe de chiens depuis mes 11 ans, je vis en ce moment avec un chiwawa de 11 ans et un chiot Pitsky (mix de pitbull et de husky) de 13 semaines. Je travaille en ce moment a temps partiel et en vu des vacances, j'ai beaucoup de temps libre pour garder vos animaux. De plus, je suis étudiant au cégep donc j'ai des vacances plus longues. Je vais garder vos animaux selon vos critères et vos demandes. Par exemple le nombre de marches voulu, les besoins de nourriture, le type d'environnement, etc.

“Super service, très présente et attentionnée envers nos 3 petits chats.”

About: I’ve been watching dogs for 7 years now. I love all types of dogs. But the first dog I ever got close to was a pitbull. He was the first over night dog sit/house sit. I ever did, the couple would travel often due to work. So I would dog sit about 2/3 times a week. I did that for about two years and gained a lot of experience with dogs due to that job. I also find dog walking a great way to stay healthy and active with out it feeling like a work out. I’ve enjoyed dogging sitting ever since I started and don’t plan to stop. So for now that I can’t get a dog of my own. I’ll just watch yours ! Just send me a message and ill send you my number so we can set up a meeting. Price is negotiable. I’m currently a full time student online so I’m looking to make cash while staying active and happy and what a better way than to pet sit. I’ve loved animal since I was a little girl so being around them always brings me joy and as you’ll see they take a liking to me as well. Even the pups you think won’t, always end up loving me as well. I live in a very spacious one bedroom apartment with a balcony alone so they always feel free and nice fresh air. There is a courtyard in my building that is dog friendly and three dog parks near my building as well. So they will always have room to run and be themselves. I am a full time online student so I would be spending my whole day with your pups. They would always be in great care with love and attention. I have a nice courtyard in my building that’s pet friendly and they can play and I also have three dog parks in my area. Where they can run around and meet new pups if allowed I am currently an full time online student so I would be with your pup the whole day. If you’d like to hear my specific daily routine let me know 😊 I usually stick to the routine a parent gives me so they can feel as comfortable as possible while staying with me or if I’m staying in their home.

About: Hello! My name is Nina and I am a university student who's loved animals for all of my life. I am more than happy to help with your pet(s)'s diverse care and needs. Over the past few years I have had the privilege of house sitting and taking care of the furry loved-ones including the large dogs, puppies, and cats of my family friends. I've had experience with a diverse set of pet-needs (even a cat who needed to go on daily walks to keep his stress at bay to avoid bladder infections!). Each experience taking care of pets has always been the part of my day I most looked forward to and hardly has it ever felt like a chore. As long as I'm given specific instructions, taking care of your non-human family members is something I will go beyond the call of duty for. And my promise as the stand-in for you, their owner, is to take care and discipline as you would. I can handle any size of pet. In the cases of pets with behavioral needs, I kindly ask for specific instructions and being open to as many questions as I could possibly have. I'm willing to negotiate schedule needs if my profile doesn't match the needs your schedule. I look forward to hearing from you and I hope I can be of great help!

About: Dogs have completely stolen my heart for as long as I can remember and caring for them is truly my happy place. I grew up in a loving home surrounded by dogs since the day I was born, always with two large breeds in the house at once. As an adult I have raised two sweet bully breeds of my own, one of them being a rescue. Along with that lifelong experience, I spent several years working at a busy dog daycare where I professionally cared for dogs of every age, size, and temperament. I’m skilled in positive reinforcement training, teaching new tricks, managing group play, and creating safe, calm environments tailored to each dog’s needs. I am also certified in dog CPR and first aid. This background gives me the confidence to care for pups at every stage of life! From energetic puppies full of zoomies to senior dogs who need extra patience, gentle care, and understanding. I bring both heart and real knowledge to every visit so your dog feels safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. I work from home Monday - Friday, which allows me to provide consistent care and attention throughout the day. Dogs in my care are treated like part of the family, with regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of love and cuddles. Because I’m home during the day, I’m able to monitor their needs closely, notice any changes in behavior, and give them attention whenever they need it. I structure my day to include interactive play, calm cuddle time, and short walks to keep dogs happy, comfortable, and stimulated. Your pet will always have a safe, loving environment where they feel cared for and part of the household! I offer care both in my home and in your home, depending on what you and your dog are most comfortable with. No matter where they stay, every dog is treated with the same love, attention, and care. I understand that every dog and every situation is different, which is why I tailor my approach to meet their individual needs. Whether it’s in my home or yours, I make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and part of the family. I provide supervision, affection, playtime, and structure to create a happy and secure environment for every dog in my care.

About: Hello dog and cat owners! I am a fellow animal lover looking to spend more time doing what makes me happy. I have vast experience caring for many different dog breeds and haven’t met one that I don’t adore. I love the outdoors and exploring the city, and would enjoy bringing your dog along with me! Whether to the dog park or a long walk by the beach, I can guarantee your pooch will have fun and get a good amount of exercise. If they respond better to a firm tone or lots of positive reinforcement I can easily accommodate to ensure your dog is getting the best care they deserve. I think we could all use some more fresh air and a little attention right now so this seems like the perfect arrangement to me. Caring for animals is somewhat of a dream job for me so please don’t hesitate to reach out! Please note: If you would like me to do a home stay during the week I would please ask you to provide your wifi. I work remotely full-time Monday-Friday. Available most days and weekends for walks or pet sitting. Early mornings and evenings are best for walks. House-sitting I’m flexible but might need to leave for few hours at a time. Happy to come to your home and follow all care steps that your pet may need. I also have a car if your pooch like to play at the dog park.

About: I always grew up with dogs and cats in my home and have taken a keen interest in making sure that my pets always recieved the care and attention they need to live happy, fulfilling lives. I've walked, fed, and bathed animals of all kinds. I'm currently working full-time however I am an incredibly motivated individual and am generally working after my full time job until sundown as well as on the weekends. I am ideally looking to fill my evenings and weekends with this type of work as I find caring for animals an incredibly fulfilling task. In taking care of my own pet (5 year old black cat) I ensure that feeding times are consistent and that the litter is cleaned each day. I make sure I take time to play with my pet to ensure they are getting proper and regular exercise. In taking care of client's pets I will bring the same care and attention I give my own pet while adhering to any instructions provided.

“Great communication, sent lots of pictures and the cats loved her !”

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life, having cats since I was a kid, constantly being around dogs & finally having my own for the last 6 years, & 15 years of riding and training horses. I’m confident, attentive, and used to picking up on what animals need, when they need it. I work a shift schedule, so my availability isn’t the same every week, but I’m reliable, communicate early, and only take bookings I can fully commit to. I provide house sitting, walks, and drop-in visits depending on what your pet needs. I keep their routine as close to normal as possible with regular walks, feeding, play, and downtime, and make sure they’re comfortable and settled while you’re away.

About: I’ve loved animals my whole life and cared for pets for many years. Since moving here two years ago, I’ve missed having pets of my own, so caring for yours is the next best thing! Back in the Philippines, I did independent rescues and fed strays daily, so I’m patient, compassionate, and experienced with pets of all temperaments. I work full-time at Mercedes-Benz, 11–7, five days a week, which means I have plenty of free time outside of work to dedicate to caring for your pets. Currently, I’m not offering in-home pet care at my place, as I don’t have the space for pets right now. I focus on providing love, attention, and care while visiting your home, ensuring your pets feel comfortable, safe, and happy in their own environment
