“Eric and Morgan were super responsive and friendly. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a pet sitter! They also accepted my booking request right after I made it even though it was short-notice”


“Christina did a very good job watching my dog Bernie. She did a great job keeping me updated on how he was doing throughout the stay. She was good with communication too and very flexible to my schedule. She had a great yard for him to release all that energy. I would recommend her for your pet sitting needs!”

“Jade was so amazing with our 3 dogs! She is very attentive, and they loved playing with her for the week! Upon meeting her, I knew that she would be a great fit for our fur babies. Thank you so much!”

“I was happy to find someone who would only take one dog at a time and also works remotely! That is his norm and he can get stressed when he's with too many new dogs and not enough time to chill. I felt like he got great care with Julia and I'm grateful to have found her through Rover! She sent us updates which my whole family loved to hear and see. We will definitely book with her again.”

“Great service! My dog Pompeii was well taken care of. He had loads of fun and was very active while being taken care of while I was out of town for my daughter's wedding. Great communication along with photo updates during his stay. Highly recommended!”

“Michael was very respectful and nice when dropping off my cat for a in house sit. He updated me regularly which made me feel comfortable and safe with how everything was going. Definitely happy and recommend Michael!”

“Great match for my little guy with their dogs. Captain slept for 2 days after this visit. Yay!! Beth and her family are great sitters and are familiar with dog behavior and needs. I will definitely use her again.”

“Misty was so awesome with our pup and very friendly, too. We felt great knowing our dog was in amazing hands and loved the photo updates. We will definitely ask Misty to dog sit again!”

“Highly recommend! Our shih tzu is adopted from a puppy mill and is a little quirky. He loved Mary and we could tell she took the time to get to know him and make him comfortable! Charlie had a great vacation at Mary’s!”

“Tammy was great! She kept in contact with me and sent photos. I felt at ease with her watching Jasper. When I got there to puck him up, he was happy and relaxed. I can tell he was well taken care of!”

“This was our second time staying with Amy and Peter. It truly makes me feel good leaving our fur babies with them. When I drop them off I know that they’re going to receive an abundance of love, playtime and socialization. Amy and Peter will be our go-to as long as they’re available.”

“Ben has watched our 12 lb rescue chihuahua mix 3 times now, and we already have the 4th scheduled. His communication is great, he send photos throughout the stay, and Lana seems to love it there.”

“John and his family were amazing with our puppy. Communication was excellent and we enjoyed the pictures and videos they sent during our trip. They took him in like a member of their family and our little dude was kept healthy and happy. We will definitely be rebooking with this wonderful family!”


“Repeat customer here! My baby and I absolutely LOVE Emily and her babies so much. Emily is truly in a league of her own. Her love for dogs is unmistakable. You can tell she isn’t doing this just for the money. She genuinely enjoys caring for them, making them feel at home, and giving them the attention, affection, and fun they deserve. Emily gives me complete peace of mind. She treats Soup like one of her own, keeps me consistently updated, and goes above and beyond to make his stay special with fun experiences and little adventures. She was also incredibly flexible and did her best to accommodate my short-notice request, which I truly appreciated. Every update shows him happy, relaxed, and clearly living his best life. At this point, I honestly feel like he has found his second home. And please don’t let Emily’s big babies intimidate you! They are incredibly sweet, gentle, friendly, and well trained. It’s obvious how much love, time, and care Emily pours into her own dogs, and she extends that same warmth and attention to every dog in her care. I truly couldn’t recommend Emily more highly. Knowing Soup is with her means I can relax and enjoy my time away without worrying, because I know he is safe, loved, and having an amazing time. The only con? Your baby might not want to come home. 😂 Soup certainly doesn’t seem to!”

“Amelia was great! My dog was totally comfortable at her home. She sent pictures each day and kept us posted on how he was doing. She also took him on big walks through the parks. Would definitely recommend and will use again!”

“We previously depended on family, neighbors and occasionally a kennel for our dog when we were out of town or had long work days. We checked out Rover.com and pretty quickly found Jennifer just 5 days before a week long trip. She was very friendly and responsive and we had a good meet-and-greet at her house soon after. Our dog immediately liked Jenn and her dogs and her large fenced yard where he had a blast running off leash. During our trip Jenn took our dog on several outings to local parks and sent pictures and texts daily to let us know how well he was doing which was much appreciated. Our plans changed and we had to extend our visit by a couple days. Jenn was very flexible with the schedule change and with drop-off and pick-up times. When we picked him up, we could tell that our dog had been well cared for and that he liked it much better than staying at a kennel! Jenn was great and we will definitely contact her again!”

“Our pup absolutely loved every minute staying with Shaina! Each photo update was adorable and she was incredibly kind and flexible when our travel plans shifted which was an added bonus. We can’t wait to book with her again!!”

“Grant and his wife were fantastic! Daisy immediately was happy to be in their space and meet their sweet dog, Tuff. They provided us picture/video updates and were flexible with an earlier drop off time than originally planned on. Upon picking Daisy up we could see how well they cared for and loved her. (: We will absolutely use Grant again in the future!!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Monroe City home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Monroe City.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Monroe City sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in IL ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
