“Megan has been great! She helped me out when I needed a sitter in a pinch and asked amazing questions when we did a meet and greet, it was clear she knew what she was doing and had my dogs’ best interests at heart. She sent me multiple photos throughout the weekend and kept me updated on how my girls were doing. Definitely would recommend her to anyone and I’ll definitely be booking her again!”
“Arabella & Dylan were very attentive to Makkachin. :) They tag teamed her care like pros, Arabella tapping in before Dylan left, and in total were with her for 5.5 hours, never leaving once! They were punctual, attentive to directions, which they followed to the letter, and gave her tons of attention and exercise, full of play, walks, and snuggles. They also fed her and kept her safe. She was happy and worn out in the best way. I would definitely use them again!”
“Izza Sofia is AMAZING!!! She took a lot of time to get to know us and everythhing we needed before ever coming, and then gave Makkachin the best day! 2 long walks, lots of playtime both indoors and outdoors, snuggles, companionship, and close supervision (good for a doggo who eats objects!) She was smiling in all her pictures, and definitely had fun, got her exercise, and had her separation anxiety cured. I can tell a difference in her demeanor when she is very engaged with and when she is not, and this was definitely a case of the former! Such a happy girl! 🥹 I also REALLY appreciated Izza Sofia’s constant updates many fantastic photos, and little comments all day long. She is the best and I can’t wait to have her watch Makka again! 10/10 recommend! 🥰”
“John is absolutely great. His calming demeanor really helped my nervous pup be comfortable. John stayed at the house with my pup and 4 cats. He gave good updates and followed instructions. He left the house clean and orderly. Thank you John for being so helpful and respectful! Will book again 😀”
“Maddy was great with our two dogs! She was very prompt and professional and provided updates/pictures. It's definitely a relief to know they are in good hands when we're away!”
About: I have six years of experience caring for dogs, including my own and pets belonging to friends and family. I’m dependable, patient, and comfortable following each dog’s individual routine. I can provide walks, feeding, playtime, bathroom breaks, and plenty of attention while keeping owners updated with photos. My background in behavior has also taught me to remain calm, observant, and consistent with every pet. I work Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., so I’m available for evening visits during the week and have more flexible availability on weekends. I’ll always confirm timing in advance to ensure your pet receives dependable, unrushed care. I will follow your cat’s normal routine and all care instructions closely. I’ll keep doors and windows secure, refresh food and water, clean the litter box, provide playtime or quiet companionship, and send regular photo updates after each visit.
“Huge shout out to Samantha (Sam)!!! She was avaliable on short notice and saved me in an emergency travel situation! She came over to meet my pups, and sat for them while I was out of town while giving me many updates and pictures to make me feel like my pups were well taken care of! I highly recommend Sam for any of your pet sitting needs!!!”
“I always worry about leaving our beagle with sitters because she is super shy and anxious, but Madison was great with her! She exceeded our expectations! Would highly recommend.”

As a teacher, I’m responsible, dependable, and attentive to routines and details. I know how important consistency is, and I bring that same level of care to every pet I look after. Whether your pet loves to play, go for walks, or just relax and cuddle, I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention and care.

In my home, pets are welcomed into a loving family environment with a secure, fenced-in yard where dogs can safely play, exercise, and explore under supervision. We are a pet-loving household with two friendly family dogs and family cats, so I understand the importance of proper introductions, monitoring interactions, and ensuring every pet feels comfortable and secure. When caring for pets in a client's home, I strive to maintain their normal routines to reduce stress and help them feel at ease while their owners are away. Whether it's feeding, walks, playtime, administering medications, cleaning litter boxes, or simply providing companionship, I give each pet personalized attention based on their individual needs. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets and home are receiving reliable, attentive care.

About: I’ve been caring for pets for most of my life and have experience dog sitting, cat sitting, and even fish sitting for friends, teachers, and family! I love taking dogs on long walks, playing with them at the park, and making sure they stay happy, safe, and hydrated at all times. I’m very attentive, caring, and always aware of my surroundings to ensure every pet is well cared for and comfortable!! I’m currently a college student working part-time, so I’m great at managing my schedule and always make time to give pets the care and attention they deserve! I’m available most weekends and am happy to help with house sitting, late-night feedings, early morning walks, and keeping pets company while their owners are away. Safety is always one of my top priorities, both for the pets in my care and for everyone around us. Whether we’re at a dog park or out on a walk, I stay attentive to my surroundings and aware of other animals to help ensure a safe and comfortable environment for everyone. I also understand that every dog has different needs, so I’m happy to choose quieter, low-stress routes for pets who prefer a calmer setting!
“Lauren was the BEST dog sitter we could ask for. She took care of our two dogs like they were hee own. She cleaned up before she left too! She definitely went above and beyond and anyone would be lucky to have her with their pups.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 182 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Monroe. 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 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 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
