“Jennifer took excellent care of our dog, cats, and home while we were gone. She kept us updated with messages and pictures the whole time. We felt very comfortable leaving our fur babies in her care.”
“Thank you so much for taking care of all my animals while I was gone. They were all well taken care of and things went smoothly and I’m so happy you were able to stay at my house.”
“Claudia is great! We’ve used her a couple of times. She has been so flexible with us, which is so valuable when your schedule is a little in flux with young children. We love having Claudia stay with our pets! She always sends updates with pictures and the pets always look so comfortable and happy.”
“Gypsie and Robby are the best! They love on my pets as if they were their own and the house always looks even better than I left it when I come home. Highly recommend!”
“Kayln watched our cat, Loaf, for a week with just short notice. She came by prior to us leaving town for a meet and greet, and we got great pictures everyday and came home to a happy cat and a clean house, maybe even cleaner than we left it! I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for pet sitting.”
“Barbara was fantastic! She did an amazing job taking care of our two dogs and aquarium. One of our dogs is very nervous around new people and by the end of Barbara's stay, the dog was comfortable with her. She provide updates daily and did not hesitate when any instructions were unclear. I will definitely book with Barbara again.”
“Aeries did really good watching over my dog and 2 cats. I will definitely be bringing her back next time I leave. She was very attentive and gave me updates (pictures) daily. 💚 Really great service!”
“Nicole did a wonderful job taking care of our sweet old hound dog. She was very happy when we got home and the house was also clean and tidy. We got daily updates and videos. We’ll gladly use Nicole again for house sitting and walks!”
About: Message me and we can work something out cuz putting pricing on here can be confusing. Hello I'm stephanie I've had many types of pets of all different kinds, my whole life; from taking care of my cats with their litters, as well as "extra-curricular" animals I won't go into, unless you have an exotic pet lol, then definitely write me. I've also done in-home house sitting for cats, dogs, and various others. If you would like to talk to any of my past references, let me know if that would help you feel more comfortable. I've taken care of pregnant cats and dogs, I've also helped them birth there babies. I'm very patient and kind hearted, and I just love animals. I've also volunteered at pet rescues and have hands on training with taking care of sick, elderly, baby, wild cats and kittens. I also offer grooming such as baths and clippings for cats and small dogs. If given a list of things to do and how you want them done, I will be more than happy to fulfill those duties. Message me if you need someone to watch your "little family member" :) I have an open schedule right now and am available. For House sitting I operate from 11am till 930pm. If you just want me to check on them real quick or take them out to potty then drop ins are what you need to select. Message me and we can work out all the details. Also doggy day care I operate 10am to 11pm within that time frame only but as of right now I can only care for them 3 to 4 hours at a time just message me to work it all out I also have had dogs and cats inside when situations, or customers, require it. I can also set up multiple crates if needed or if they are trained for it.
“Zachariah goes above and beyond for our puppies! He asks all the right questions and sent us prompt updates and photos of puppies so we ALWAYS had assurance that our puppies were doing well! He is so kind and courteous, thoughtful and respectful to our furry family and his love of animals is VERY clear! We’ll be depending on Zach for our puppy’s care in the future!!!!”
“Paris took excellent care of our dog! She sent us pictures everyday which we loved and looked forward to ❤️ Our dog had an ear infection when we dropped her off, Paris administered the medication as requested, and her ears looked fantastic when we picked her up. We well definitely be calling on her again!”
“If I could leave more than five stars I would. Brandy took such good care of our foster dog Ace. Ace is reactive to other dogs but Brandy has experience with this kind of behavior, I was completely comfortable leaving him with her for neighborhood dog walks. She sent daily updates, and so many photos I felt like I was gone for two days, not a whole week! Brandy also treated our home with the utmost respect, and cleaned and remade the bed with fresh sheets before we got home late at night. I almost cried with relief! She took Ace on so many adventures, I realized I need to step up my game! I felt as if I've known Brandy forever and I was leaving my dog with a trusted friend. We will 100% call on Brandy again to watch Ace, and any future dogs we have!”
“Chloe was a wonderful pet sitter! She took amazing care of our dog and our bunny while we were out of town. She was incredibly respectful of our home & space, and left everything in perfect condition. We appreciated her communication and updates with pictures of our pets! I would absolutely recommend her!”
“From the moment I met Alona I knew she would be a perfect match for my girl Louise. I am extremely particular when it comes to finding the best care for my dog and Alona was open and receptive to my needs while my husband and I were away. She understood that I like communication often with updates and lots of very cute photos! She followed instructions and didn’t hesitate to reach out when she had a question. I had issues with our precious sitter and she was receptive to hearing my concerns and ensuring that I wouldn’t have to deal with any issues as her stay approached. She also left our place in great condition and took wonderful care! Louise is on the stubborn side while also being more aloof. She warmed up to Alona quicker than previous sitters. We will 100% be using Alona for future stays with Louise!”

We had Cameron watch our boys for the first time and she did an awesome job. She sent us pictures every day and kept us updated on how they were doing. I had no worries about her being in our house and she left everything just as it was when we left. We definitely will use her in the future.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Monroe on Rover is $43.85 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 6,764 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.
