About: I have had dogs my entire life. I’ve had multiple dogs that I’ve raised from puppies into adulthood. So I have experience with every age of dog I can give medication like it’s nobody’s business. I can also handle a puppy. I’m currently working part-time at a restaurant so I either work in the morning or in the afternoon so it gives me plenty of time to be with your dog and give them lots of love I have been dog sitting since four years and have always stayed at a person‘s house. I am a bit of a neat freak so I always clean and can promise that you will come back to a clean house.

About: I have over 10 years of experience dog sitting and walking both large and small breeds. I am comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs, ensuring they receive plenty of exercise, attention, and care. My experience has helped me develop strong animal handling skills and a commitment to keeping pets safe, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away. I work part time during the summer as I am home from college, which gives me plenty of flexibility throughout the day to care for your dog’s needs. I have ample time for walks, playtime, feeding, and providing your pet with the attention and care they deserve. I care for both a large and a small dog at home every day, giving me hands on experience with different breeds, sizes, and personalities. I am responsible for feeding, walking, exercising, and making sure they are happy, healthy, and well cared for.
“John-Michael was great! We were a last minute booking and he communicated with me right away. He spent time with our old tabby cat and took great care of her! Will definitely book again!”
About: I've always had an affinity for animals, growing up I was always surrounded by cats. I loved watching nature shows and knew I wanted to do something with animals as an adult which is why I was so excited when I first got my first job at a veterinary office in 2002. I connected with many clients and their pets so I started caring for their pets and I have cared for an array of different pets which includes dogs, cats, birds, reptiles and other small mammals. In addition to caring for pets I gained many life long friendships. I currently work part-time and I am able to work from home which makes caring for dogs a bit easier as I'm able to do midday potty breaks/walks and provide company to pets at their home. I work part-time also at a veterinary urgent care on weekends which allows for continued education and experience. I care for pets in their homes. I believe it is easiest and most beneficial on the pet to be in their familiar surroundings and avoid changing routines as much as possible. It also allows me to separate my home life from the pet sitter. This allows for my undivided attention when caring for pets.
“Kassidy is a loving and friendly professional. She takes great care of my fur babies when I go out of town. She is punctual, communicative, and a great friend to my dog Teddy. I would recommend her to anyone in the Frederick area. Thank you Kassidy!!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs among friends and neighbors for years. I love getting to know each dog’s unique personality and making sure they feel comfortable, loved, and right at home while they’re in my care. Also, my schedule allows me to be home most of the day, which means frequent potty breaks, plenty of supervision, and lots of one-on-one attention! I have a flexible schedule and am home most of the day. Caring for pets is already a regular part of my life, so providing walks, playtime, feeding, medication administration, potty breaks, and plenty of attention throughout the day is easy to incorporate into my schedule. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I follow each pet’s routine carefully, maintain a clean, calm environment, and treat every dog like a member of my own family.

About: Hi there! I’m a proud cat mom to two adorable kitties — a playful 3-year-old and a wise, gentle 7-year-old. With years of hands-on experience caring for my own pets, I know just how much love, attention, and patience our furry friends need. In addition to my own cats, I’ve also cared for friends’ pets — both cats and dogs — while they were away, making sure they felt safe, happy, and at home. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, litter duty, or giving belly rubs, I treat every pet like family. I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy to look after your pets — and I’d be honored to be that person for you! I’m an HR professional working 9–5 on weekdays, so I’m available for boarding both weekdays and weekends. Pets stay on the first floor of my home and have access to a fenced backyard—perfect for small dogs to play safely. I also enjoy taking them on walks for extra fun and exercise. my backyard is fully fenced to ensure your pup is always safe, secure, and free from outside disturbances. I take safety seriously—both the front and side doors are monitored by security cameras, so I can keep a close eye on everything and give you peace of mind.
About: I am a former teacher going back to school for a career change, so I have a lot more availability to care for your pet! I have plenty of experience watching dogs in many different areas, and I’ve been so lucky to meet so many dogs/people along the way. I am flexible on the time and am available to do weekends. I am on summer break so will be available for most of the day. I have a lot of experience crating, feeding, taking dogs out, and potty training. I make sure they do not chew on unwanted things and stay off furniture.
About: I’ve dog sat for a few family friends and absolutely loved it! I love animals (especially dogs) and would be happy to care for your doggo. I currently work part time, and my hours are very flexible. I can always take a lunch break for a quick drop in/walk! I have also lots of time for pet sittings and I always let pet parents know about that upfront before any booking! I am also a college student. For the semester of 2026, I have one online class that is also flexible. I always make sure to follow their daily routines to keep them as comfortable as possible while the family is away. I love communicating as much as possible and sending updates during the stay. I always ask questions and let pet parents aware of their day.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Monrovia
We truly appreciated Alex and her careful concern for our animals. Alex went out of her way for a concern she had for one dog. She also exhibited knowledge of animals and their special needs. I felt very comfortable with her care of our senior dog. I hope she is always available when we need someone in the future.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Monrovia 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!
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 .
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking.
