“They were very kind and attentive to all of the care instructions for our three pups! All of our dogs loved them and seemed very happy and well cared for when we got home. They left our home nice and clean as well. Would definitely rebook with them :)”
“Daniel was great. Our fur babies were kept on their schedule and given lots of love. I also appreciated the pictures Daniel sent to show how they were doing. Would definitely ask Daniel to look after our dogs again.”
“If you are looking for a sitter who can handle a literal zoo with grace, look no further! We threw a lot at Barbara—dogs, cats, mini donkeys, and even a goat—and she handled them all like a pro. But the real test was our pig. To be fair, she had zero 'swine experience' going in, and our pig definitely knew it. He made it his mission to drive her absolutely bananas, but she didn’t crack! She was patient, attentive, and somehow managed to keep everyone happy and fed. It’s not every day you find someone willing to referee a pig while making sure the donkeys get their ear scratches. We came home to a very calm farm and happy animals. We’ll definitely be booking her again—if the pig hasn't scared her off for good”
“Laura was so sweet to help me out on short notice with my 17 year old dog. She did an excellent job sending videos and pictures and keeping me I formed on how he was doing. Very sweet personality and she gives attention to details to keep you pet happy while you’re away.”
“Our girls were really drawn to Rammiyah, esp the shy one. They appeared well and the house in order. I would have liked more pictures but communication was good. Definitely would rehire her!”
About: Dogs aren’t just my passion—they’ve been my way of life for as long as I can remember. Having raised and cared for breeds of all shapes and sizes, from tiny lap dogs to gentle giants, I understand that every pup has a unique personality and pace. As an active foster parent, I specialize in creating a calm, supportive, and safe environment tailored to your dog's exact needs. Whether your pup thrives on high-energy hikes, loves exploring neighborhood trails, or prefers gentle neighborhood strolls, I make sure every outing is safe, engaging, and thoroughly exhausting in the best way possible. When your dog stays with me, they get the full royal treatment. My home features a spacious, fully fenced yard for safe daily zoomies, alongside a comfortable, loving indoor setup where they can stretch out and relax like family. I’m currently building my full-time career around doing what I love most: providing top-tier care, safety, and endless belly rubs so you can have complete peace of mind while you're away. i do currently work part time monday-friday so i am available for dog walks after 1pm and i am open friday after 1pm- sunday evening for any stay the nights i do have a fully fenced back yard, tons of room for fur babies to run. 3 fur babies of our own along with a senior cat. i have 2 senior fur babies along with a 4 year old that is great with both seniors and puppies.
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all sizes, breeds, and personalities for several years. Friends, family, and neighbors trust me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m patient, dependable, and always make sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I have a flexible schedule, and can provide pet care during weekdays, evenings, and weekends. I’m happy to work with your routine for walks, drop-ins, boarding, or overnight care. I do my best to be available when you and your pet need me most. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a clean, calm, and loving environment where pets can relax and feel at home. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and routines. I also give regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease while away.
“Amanda was great with our girl! Our pup is a bit vocal and has a few quirks; like needing doors closed, a sound machine on when we’re out, and a special diet…but Amanda handled everything. Communication was easy and consistent, and we came home to a happy pup. It’s clear she really cared, and we’ve already booked her again.”
“Mateo was geear and professional to work with. He was able to come by multiple times a day to check up on Domino and provide him the care he needed! Would recommend to friends and family!”
“Lealy was an absolute pleasure to have in our home. She watched our 3 dogs and stayed at the house to watch over everything. I will not ever use anyone else. She has a permanent customer”
About: I’ve cared for dogs and other pets of different ages, sizes, and personalities. My entire life ive been a huge animal lover and ive owned all sorts of pets! I’m patient, dependable, and focused on making pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I have experience with puppies, senior pets, feeding routines, walks, playtime, and giving pets lots of attention and care. I always pay close attention to each pet’s needs and make sure they stay happy, active, and well cared for. im currently working part time as a nursing assistant, so I’ll have plenty of time to take care of your pups! (I can rearrange times for you as well ;)) Honestly I would rather hang out with pets than humans, I have a very big yard with 3 younger brothers and my own dog to keep the pets happy and playful!
“Joalice is a reliable and compassionate pet sitter! I am always at ease knowing she is looking after my pets and home while I am out of town. I will continue to use her as long as I can!”
About: I’m that friend that you know you can trust with your furry child. I love animals more than humans honestly. I have a big space of empathy for animals and love on each one as if they can feel my energy. Because they can. I’m currently free 24/7 so it won’t be difficult at all to make room for furry friends in my daily routine. My job is to make music and I create my own schedule. I always carry myself with the mentality that I leave a space better than I found it. I definitely have slight OCD so I’ll always make sure things are tidy and safe for your furry child.
“Leslie was great with my pup Bogey! She communicated often, sent pictures and kept me updated on everything during the stay. The house was probably better than I had left it when I got home! I will definitely use Leslie again!”
About: Caring for dogs has been a huge part of my everyday life. I have three dogs of my own, so I’m very familiar with daily routines like walking, feeding, playtime, and giving dogs the attention and patience they need. I’ve also dog-sat for family members, which has helped me become comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities and energy levels. What sets me apart is how much I truly love dogs — I treat every dog like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I’m reliable, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, whether that means a calm walk, playtime, or just keeping them company. My weekly routine is always the same and includes a lot of availability for me to fit pet sitting/walking into my schedule. I prioritize my time with pets!! When caring for pets in their own homes, I make it a priority to keep their routine and environment as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow all instructions carefully, respect your space, and make sure your pet feels safe, calm, and well cared for. I take my time during visits, give plenty of attention and affection, and always treat both your home and your pet with care and respect.
“Khaleigh was great! We always feel nervous leaving our pets and she helped us feel relaxed and comfortable with them in her care. She was able to follow our instructions for 6 pets (3 cats and 3 dogs) including medication administration, senior dog care, and mobility assistance. She communicated with us and we felt they were very safe and cared for.”
About: Ever since I was a little girl I have always loved animals. I have always had a family pet and I currently have a sweet puppy of my own, his name is Ollie. In high school I volunteered at local animal shelters and started dog/ farm sitting for friends and family. It is one of my lifetime dreams to open up a doggy cafe and maybe even a doggy day camp. So if you ever need anyone to dog sit, walk your pups, or even just hang out with them for a little while… I am super flexible and more than willing!! I have a very flexible and remote job, so I can always find time to escape to go play with some pups! I’m available more often than not for dog/housesitting, walks, and check ins throughout the week!! My biggest concern is that your fur baby is happy and healthy. Every family is different and every dog may require different needs, I understand that and know that all too well. I am pretty flexible and up for anything to ensure your pup is living their best life. I am a big fan of communication so I will always ask questions if any situation arises. And I will keep you updated with tons of cute photos of your sweet babies.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Monroe
She is absolutely wonderful - we have a senior dog and she spent a week with him in our home (over the 4th of July fireworks holiday, no less!). He’s particular, and she had him the absolute healthiest and happiest we’ve ever seen him when we returned. She’s super communicative, and the most respectful houseguest we’ve ever received - truly a 10/10 experience, and my only fear with letting the world know about her is having to share her 🥹! Thank you, thank you!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Monroe is $35 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $45 per night. 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.

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 Monroe 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 Monroe 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 Monroe 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 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.
sitters 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 sitter.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Monroe. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
