“This was my time using Rover and David made it a great experience. He came by to meet Isabelle and see the job to make sure we were both comfortable. He answered some questions about how Rover works. I was mid-flight when he arrived and he reached out to me to let me know how Isabelle was doing. And he was very prompt in responding when I asked for updates.”
“My experience with Melody was fantastic she went above and beyond, truly the best pet sitting experience I have had. This was a super last minute booking after my previous sitter cancelled and she responded immediately and was willing to take over and show up instantly. She was super communicative and made me feel very comfortable, even going as far as giving me updates when she was leaving the house for less than 30 minutes. Not only did she send plenty of adorable photos of my cats but she cleaned up as well leaving my house in better shape than I left it. I would recommend Melody in a heartbeat she is the best.”
About: I've taken care of dogs of many sizes for quick trips and extended stays. I have experience working with puppies and elderly dogs, in addition to dogs with special needs. I'm happy to water plants or take care of a garden too! I am starting classes in late September, so until then, I'm all yours! Once my classes start, I'll still be able to check in on your pets every 2-4 hours if you're within Monmouth. I will keep your pets safe and happy in the comfort of their own home! I like to stick closely to their everyday routines as possible to keep them comfortable while you're away.
About: I have two cats at home and frequently pet-sit for friends & neighbors in the area. I have always had at least one cat in my home, and at one point lived with two miniature Australian Shepherds. I’m currently working part-time and have plenty of time in my schedule. I typically work 5 hours per day, 3-5 days per week, sometimes weekends. I am accustomed to following meal and medication schedules for pets, as well as monitoring a cat on a leash outside or walking a dog twice per day. When walking dogs, I stick to the established route and avoid other dogs.
“McKenna was amazing! This was my first time leaving my pups home for the weekend and having someone come house sit. McKenna helped put my mind at ease when we did the meet and greet. One of my pups left an unexpected surprise (my pup threw a tantrum and destroyed a furniture) for McKenna and she was so nice and cleaned it up for me. I came home to happy pups and I would recommend her. I’d have her back!”
“It was awesome meeting Leanna, and I felt totally at ease leaving my pup in her care over Labor Day weekend. If I could give 6 stars, I would. Super professional, super responsive—any time I reached out, she got back to me within minutes, which really gave me peace of mind. This was my first time using Rover, and thanks to Leanna, it was a great experience. I’d happily recommend her to friends and family. 10/10 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Molly was awesome. She is very sweet and caring and took exceptional care of our 2 dogs while we were on vacation. I will not hesitate to book her in the future. She took good care of our house and she brushed our dogs too! They looked great and happy upon our return.”
“Our second time booking Alyssa and it was just as great as the first. She’s so patient with our little rescue Chiweenie and will absolutely be our go-to sitter going forward. I’d give her 100 stars if I could. ❤️”
“Chris was an excellent pup sitter for our black lab. We were nervous to leave our boy and it was our first time having a stranger in our home to care for him. Chris was kind and patient with Cayde and gave us frequent updates on how things were going. Chris put us at ease and left the home as he found it. We'd definitely have him return for future in-home pet sitting!!”
“Elizabeth is very responsive. She took great care of my nervous pup and cat on short notice. She left the house cleaner than it was when she arrived, I think! We've already booked our next sit with Elizabeth and I look forward to having great peace of mind while we are gone.”
About: I've been taking care of my families pets as well as the pets of my friends, and neighbors since I was a kid! We never had less than three animals in the house and would always watch over our neighbors pets when they were gone. I have also worked as a pet sitter for many other families in a more professional setting. Taking care of animals isnt always clean or easy but its worth it to me to see them happy. I do my best to treat your pets like family knowing that I would want the same treatment for my cat when I rely on someone to watch her! I am not available in the mornings unless I am taking care of them across multiple days. I am available in the afternoon and evenings both during the week and weekends. I am not able to keep your pets in my home because I have a very non-friendly cat. However I am more than happy to spend an afternoon with them at the park, take them on a short walk, or just stop in to make sure they are doing ok. I am also able to stay at your home or check on your pets multiple times per day if you will be out of town.
“Rachel is amazing! Her calm nature and constant communication was our saving grace and hers, since our youngest dog had separation anxiety at first. I appreciate everything she did to help the dogs relax a trust her abilities.”
“McKenzie, was fabulous! We came home to very happy pups, and the house was spotless. We received many pictures and updates which helped us enjoy our vacation. We have already booked her again!!”
“Kelly went so above and beyond with our animals, we are so grateful we found her! She spent time with each and every one of our animals making sure they all felt comfortable. We won’t be going with any other sitter if we can help it in the future.”
About: I have fostered on and off with Hope’s Haven for years now and I am no stranger to puppies and seniors alike. I have dog sat since I was 14. I’m a college student at Chemeketa and would love to spend the time I am not studying getting my exercise in by getting out a dog’s energy. I have a cat, two rabbits, and a standard poodle at home. I know a lot about keeping peace and making sure everyone has their needs met.
“Absolutely amazing she took such great fantastic care of Macy !!! Definitely a 5 star ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ plus sitter Recommend her highly !!! NOW however...my experience using "Rover" itself was extremely disappointing and dissatisfying!!!! Trying to communicate with your company was beyond difficult!!! Besides your cancelling my reservation.. without my authorization..every time I tried to contact you all I got was the run around from very unprofessional people. Who refused to answer any of my questions or concerns. Were rude and uninformed as to how to help me. I will NEVER use your company again!!! And certainly will not recommend anyone else use you !!!”
About: I started taking care of animals when I was really young I think around 6 years old I would take care of my neighbor's dog was a little Pomeranian when they would go places. Also my neighbor had a Irish setter that I would go visit all the time and she would give me a dollar to walk her around the block or talking at least 48 years ago and I still remember it to this day it was one of the best times in my life when I was young. I think I've decided that I want to dedicate my life to this I mean what's left of it anyway lol I've been working with people most of my life and I thought I'd give this a try so daily routine and weekly routine would be up to the customer and it would be your preference after all you're the boss right? I've been a caregiver since 1998 of people I had five background checks last year for the state of Oregon I work for Oregon health Care commission and I'm a caregiver I passed five of them so you would not have to worry about me being in your home I would offer the services that you were requesting and you would also go beyond even more than what you would expect I think I would be a good fit with for anybody I'm an older lady and I've got a lot of grandchildren so I figured taking care of your for a babies and I would treat them like my grandbabies or you would say fur babies. Customer would be my boss so therefore I would do what they would ask.
About: 🐾 Lifelong Pet Lover & Trusted Caregiver 🐾 Hi! I’m Isabella — a devoted animal lover who has grown up surrounded by both dogs and cats my entire life. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do; it’s truly part of who I am. From playful puppies to senior cats with special needs, I genuinely enjoy building trust and connection with every pet I care for. I currently own three cats, so I fully understand feline personalities — from the affectionate cuddle bugs to the independent observers. I also have hands-on experience administering cat inhalers, which means I’m comfortable caring for pets who require extra patience, attentiveness, and consistency. Your pet’s health and comfort are always my top priority. In addition to my personal experience, I’m a volunteer with the Humane Society, where I’ve worked with animals of all temperaments and backgrounds. This has strengthened my ability to read body language, adapt to individual needs, and provide calm, compassionate care — especially for shy, anxious, or rescue pets. I’ve also grown up with dogs and am very comfortable with their routines, energy levels, and unique personalities. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding schedules, or simply keeping them company, I make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I pride myself on being dependable, detail-oriented, and communicative. I follow instructions carefully and love sending updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. I don’t just watch pets — I treat them like family. I’d love the opportunity to care for your furry companion and provide the same love and attention I give my own. 🐶🐱💙 I am available every week day, including weekends. I am available early morning and late nights, unless I specify otherwise. And if I do, it will be posted somewhere on my account. Whatever you need me to do with your animal, I can do. As long as me and the animal are safe and have a healthy environment, I am completely fine with taking care of the animal the way you need me to.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Monmouth is $45
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Monmouth
Leanna took great care of our house and our 3 dogs, which are busy and naughty! She also watered the outdoor plants since the weather was hot. I checked in with her a few times in case she had any questions and it sounded like all was well and no worse for the wear! We would definitely call on her again if her schedule aligns with ours.
Fiona was amazing. She is extremely professional and responsible. This was our first time leaving our dog alone with someone else in our home. He was less than stellar but Fiona kept us in the loop and understood that he had gone through a lot of recent changes and was confused why his parents were gone. She did everything she could to make him comfortable. As someone who is very particular about how watches my pets and who stays in my home, Fiona was perfect. I highly recommend her to anyone and honestly with how great she is, she should raise her prices.
Aiden and Hunter took exceptional care of our fur babies- even winning over our shy cat and socially awkward pup! When we returned home, all three pets were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. This was a last minute booking and they immediately put us at ease with excellent communication and regular updates throughout their stay. They truly went above and beyond, even washing the linens on the guest bed before they left. They genuinely care about the animals they look after- we will absolutely be reaching out to them again in the future!
Elizabeth is our go to, for last minute and planned trips. She always goes above and beyond with Fiona. Fiona loves her and looks forward to her visits. She sends pics daily and is very responsive. She was easily able to add a day when our flight was delayed overnight and was quick to add a week of walks our week with her house sitting. We are so thankful for her and can’t say enough good things about her.
Our dog instantly connected with Elizabeth and even showed his playful side we rarely see as he is older and much less active. She asked good questions, kept us updated and took amazing personalized care of our dog and our home. We would hire her again without any reservation.
Ashley, a wonderful, friendly young lady who is easy to like instantly, my 2 corgies loved her, and appear to be missing her this moment! I was away for 10 days. She stayed at my home, sent photos and updates regularly and found ways to exercise them, even on rainy days. Ashley came over to my home prior to me leaving so she could meet me and the dogs, which I very much appreciated, the dogs instantly loved her. I will certainly use Ashley’s services again

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Monmouth on Rover is $28.86 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 659 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Monmouth. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Monmouth walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Monmouth maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Monmouth 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!
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.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Monmouth. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 89% 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.
