Daytime visits Overnight stays Weekdays, weekends, and statutory holidays Short-term and long-term bookings For stays of 6 nights or longer, I'm happy to travel up to 250 km from Gatineau/Ottawa. Client’s home: I believe pets feel safest when their routines are respected. Before each stay in your home, I take the time to learn your dog's habits, favourite words, feeding schedule, medications, exercise routine, and any special needs. I'm comfortable administering oral medications (pills and oral syringes), checking for and safely removing ticks after walks, wiping muddy or snowy paws, towel-drying after rain or swimming, cleaning food and water bowls, and handling the occasional "oopsie" with patience and good humour. I pay close attention to changes in appetite, mobility, energy, or behaviour and will let you know promptly if anything seems unusual. I'll also send regular updates and photos so you can enjoy your trip knowing your companion is safe, comfortable, and well cared for.
About: My name is David-Alexander. I am available to travel with my vehicle throughout the Gatineau and Ottawa area. I am currently available at any time, including weekdays, evenings, and weekends, to care for your pets either in your home or mine. I have a 11-year-old female dog named Kali. ALL PETS ARE WELCOME! Kali was aggressive for years I have experience with temperament Coming from a family that has always had pets, I have been passionate about animal care my entire life. I have owned dogs and cats for as long as I can remember and would be happy to care for yours as if they were my own. Why choose me? I understand how important it is to know that your furry family member is being left in a safe, caring, and trustworthy environment. I will make sure your pets are happy, comfortable, well-fed, and loved while you are away. Whether they need supervision, companionship, exercise, or simply someone to keep them company, I am happy to help. I would be happy to send you photos and updates of your pets while I am caring for them I can provide two one-hour walks each day for dogs who require lots of exercise. for temperamental dogs we must do a together session so they learn to get to know me I am also available for home visits where I can: Feed your pets Take them outside for bathroom breaks Walk and exercise them Give them affection and companionship Administer basic care according to your instructions My goal is to provide reliable, attentive, and loving care so that you can have peace of mind while you're away from your pets. I work from home and look for some companionship. hike and walk a lot. I love audiobooks, and I hate sitting still if you have a high-energy dog. Perfect. If your dog is old and slow. Awesome just means I get to the end of my book faster. I also had a rescue that needed a lot of training and an alpha male to make her feel protected and safe. It took years to get her to walk by people, dogs, and children. I still cry to this day thinking about where we started and how it ended. I think about all the times she looked up at me for reassurance. I miss her so much. Life is too short for animals; they need loving walks and belly rubs. My roommate has a mini dog. Our yard is large and fenced in. I'm always home or hiking, so your dogs would get a lot of walks and hikes in Gatineau Park. I also set goals for my dog; a newtrick a day keeps the doctor away.

“Johanne was beyond amazing with my dogs. She was always on time, kept up communication, got some fantastic photos and kept us updated about both our dogs. I was worried at first as one of my dogs is a muscular puller and thought for sure that it would be a challenge but not at all. She handled both dogs perfectly and I am pretty sure she taught them to be bilingual as well. 10/10 she will be my number one choice and the only person I will recommend to others. I can not express how happy we were with our experience. I am not sure if there are awards or 6 star status but If anyone from the Rover teams see this Johanne should be given elite status.”
About: I’ve always had a huge love for animals and would be so happy to care for your furry friend! 🐶 I’ve had my own Pit Bull since he was a puppy, and I’ve been actively involved in his training and everyday care. I’m comfortable handling a strong, energetic dog and have experience with both big and small breeds. I also regularly walk my neighbours’ and friends’ dogs. I’m patient, responsible and treat every dog with love, attention and respect. I’ll make sure your pup gets plenty of exercise, playtime, cuddles and care while you’re away! 🐾💕 I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your furry friend! I have lots of availability for dog walking, pet sitting and boarding in my home. I’m happy to work around your dog’s routine and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime and love. Whether your pup needs a quick walk or lots of activity throughout the day, I’m happy to accommodate their needs! 🐾 I live in a spacious apartment with my own friendly dog, and I can keep the dogs safely separated if your pup prefers their own space or is uncomfortable around other dogs. There is also a small dog park right next door for supervised play and exercise. The Aylmer Marina is about a 10-minute walk away, so I can also offer longer walks and plenty of outdoor time. Your dog’s comfort and safety always come first, and I’ll make sure they feel happy, comfortable and cared for while they’re with me! 🐶💕
“Elizabeth was always punctual She seemed to understand dogs and was patient with Abby when she was reluctant It took Abby a couple of walks before she relaxed but Elizabeth was patient Sorry she cannot do on a consistent On a consistent basis”
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.

The average cost of Dog Walking in Val-des-Monts is $20 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $20 per walk.

There are 1,361 sitters on Rover for Dog Walking in Val-des-Monts. About 84% of Val-des-Monts 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.
Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in Val-des-Monts. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighbourhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
<b>Tip:</b> Keep in mind that many cities in Canada require your dog walker to have a permit or licence for group walks.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Val-des-Monts after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits, dog walking, and doggy day care. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find walkers in Val-des-Monts with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.
Every walker 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.
walkers 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 walker.
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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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 Val-des-Monts 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!
