“Jonathan was absolutely wonderful! He watched my two cats for me while I was away for about a week and treated them so well. They warmed up to him immediately which doesn’t usually happen and he made sure to spend good time with them each day for brushing, treats, and general company. I would definitely recommend him!”

About: As a dedicated dog sitter with over 6 years of experience, I pride myself on offering personalized and attentive care that goes above and beyond the standard. My passion for animals and commitment to their well-being is evident in every aspect of my service. Pet care isn’t just a job for me; it’s an integral part of my daily routine and a true passion. Despite working from 6 AM to 3 PM, I have seamlessly integrated pet care into my schedule, ensuring each furry client receives the attention and love they deserve. My day starts early, and before I begin my workday, I make time for morning walks, ensuring each dog gets the exercise and stimulation they need to start their day off right. During my work hours, I ensure that any pet in my care is comfortable and attended to, with regular breaks to provide quick check-ins, snacks, and affection. Once my workday ends at 3 PM, I dedicate the rest of my afternoon and evening to pet care. This includes longer walks, play sessions, and any specialized attention a pet might need. Whether it’s a game of fetch, a grooming session, or some cuddle time, I ensure each pet feels happy and engaged. Balancing pet care with my work schedule has taught me the importance of organization, reliability, and, most importantly, the joy that comes from spending time with animals. My dedication to this routine ensures that every pet in my care feels loved, secure, and well-taken care of, no matter the time of day. Each walk is personalized, taking into account the dog’s temperament, energy level, and specific requirements. I prioritize safety and enjoyment, ensuring that each walk is a positive and enriching experience for your furry friend.

About: Hi! I’m Mia, a full time professional pet care provider with over five years of hands on experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds, ages, sizes, and personalities. Before starting my own pet care business, I spent five years working at a professional dog daycare and boarding facility, where I worked my way up to Assistant Manager. That experience gave me extensive hands on experience with everything from puppies and seniors to high energy dogs, shy or nervous pets, multi-pet households, and pets with individualized care needs. Today, pet care is my full time job. I love getting to know each pet individually and becoming someone they’re genuinely comfortable and excited to see. I take their routines seriously, pay attention to the little details, and tailor each visit to what that particular pet needs that day. Whether that means a good walk, backyard playtime, puppy care, a slower visit with a senior, or simply some company and attention, my goal is for your pet to feel happy, comfortable, and well cared for. And of course, you can expect plenty of photos and a detailed update after every visit! Pet care is my full time job, so my days are built around my clients! I primarily provide weekday dog walks and drop in visits, along with vacation care for dogs and cats and limited overnight care. Because I work professionally in pet care rather than fitting visits around another job, I’m able to maintain a consistent schedule while still giving each pet the time and attention they deserve. I currently care for a wonderful group of regular weekly clients throughout the Palmer and Wilbraham area, along with pets I see for occasional and vacation care. I believe great pet care should feel as normal and stress-free as possible for your pet. I’ll follow your routines and instructions closely, keep you updated, and make sure your pet gets care that actually fits them, whether they’re ready to go the second I walk through the door or need a little extra patience to warm up. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take time to learn each dog’s routine, personality, and needs so they can feel as comfortable and stress free as possible while you’re away. I also provide updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are being well cared for.

About: I've been dog sitting for a little over 8 years now for friends and family. I started dogsitting for clients at the salon I used to work for. I own 2 dogs myself one of which is 11 and the other is 5! I love cats and dogs so much and I can't wait to have my own house to adopt as many as I can! I currently don't own any cats but I can't wait to in the future! I currently am working as a full time bank teller Monday-Saturday at the Polish National Credit Union! I'd love to be available for overnights during the week for your pet and then just go to work during the day. The weekends I'm usually available full time for petsitting! I'm very flexible with what needs to be taken care of for your pet! I can take them on walks or for car rides. I can play fetch for as long as they want outside. Obviously take them out for potty and feed them give them treats. I can cuddle with them or brush them. I have taken care of a blind dog before so I can give them eyedrops or medications as well!

About: With 15+ years of experience as a certified veterinary technician and personal pets, I am an ideal candidate to care for your pets. At home, I’ve had dogs, cats, birds, and horses for my entire life. Over the last three years, I’ve cared for three senior dogs who required an array of medications. My 15 years experience as a veterinary technician has helped me to develop an eye for detail when it comes to your pets needs and health. Currently, I am taking a break from veterinary medicine. I would like to begin my own dog walking/daycare/pet and house sitting business in order to support my family. This will become a full-time job for me with an open schedule at this point. Dog walking and check in’s (to potty and play) will be Monday to Saturday 7am to 7pm. As I cultivate a client base and access the needs of those clients, my hours will develop to accommodate those needs. At my house, we have a fenced in yard that is approximately half an acre. The fence is 7 feet high in all places. There is a kiddie pool and digging area. Inside is an open concept to roam. Currently, all of my dogs are very friendly couch potatoes. If needed, they could be separated (into their favorite spot, my bedroom!) to accommodate your pets needs. As for walking, I will adhere to all rules provided by you, the owner. I’m open to walking neighborhoods or taking your dogs out on the local trails. I will work side by side on manners and behavior with the owners.

“Breighanna is very thorough & keeps in good contact which we loved-it's great to get updates on your cats while you're away. Our cats required meds in the a.m. & p.m. and she handled it seamlessly! She really went above & beyond by taking time to play and making sure each cat was engaged! Would recommend her to anyone booking, this is someone with a true passion for detail and care with animals!”

We have an outdoor camera at my house and when I looked in, I saw her playing with my dogs in the yard the entire time she was there. It lifted a huge weight off my shoulders having her there. I appreciate her so much and definitely recommend her!”

About: I have been walking and caring for my own personal animals - 2 dogs, cat, bird, hamsters since I was 5 years old. I also have been dog sitting and walking for numerous neighbors and friends in the area. I work during the day a full-time job. I am available early in the morning and after 4:00pm during the week. I am available on the weekends anytime of the day. I have a fenced in backyard that my 4 year old Brittany Spaniel, Maggie loves to run around and play ball. It is completely fenced in so she can't get out. I love to be outside playing with my dog and bring her on 3+ walks a day around town and at the local park.

About: I’ve spent plenty of time around my neighbor’s dog walking, feeding, and cleaning up after him. I’m comfortable with strong pullers and I’m not fazed by mud, rain, or a dog who needs a minute to warm up to me. After every visit you’ll get a photo and a short recap: how the walk went, whether they ate, anything that seemed off. I’m new to Rover, so I’ll be upfront: no training certifications yet. What I do have is wide open availability, a phone I actually answer, and a free meet and greet before any first booking so you can see how your dog reacts to me first. I’m available throughout the week for walks and drop-ins, plus weekend mornings — Saturdays and Sundays before noon are always open. My part-time work schedule comes out on the weekend, so once I have it I update my Rover calendar and can tell you exactly which days I’m free for the week ahead. If you need something regular, message me and we’ll lock in the days that work. I care for pets in the client’s home, so my goal is to keep your dog’s normal routine intact and leave everything exactly as I found it. For walks: I confirm the leash and harness setup with you first, stick to the route and pace your dog is used to, keep them leashed the entire time, and always clean up. I bring water on warm days and check paws before we head back in. For drop-in visits: fresh water, food or treats exactly as you’ve instructed, potty break, and some play or company depending on what your dog likes. I’ll also do the small things bringing in mail, turning a light on if you ask. Either way, you’ll get a photo and a short recap after every visit, and I’ll text you right away if anything seems off. I follow your instructions on doors, locks, and keys exactly, and I don’t have anyone else with me on a booking.

About: Hey there! I’m Melissa — professional treat-giver, squeaky-toy champion, and expert belly-rubber. I make sure your dog is living their best life while you’re out living yours! We have a 4.5 yo mini bernedoodle who loves having friends over! I work from home 2 days per week. My schedule is flexible to provide care in our home during those days, walks at your house or activities with our dog. My usual days home are Monday and Friday. I am also available during holidays, or on Saturday and Sunday. In my home, pets enjoy a calm and supervised environment with lots of love, playtime, and enrichment. While we do not have a fenced-in yard, I’m extremely careful — outdoor time is always controlled with secure leashes and full supervision for safety. Your peace of mind means everything to me, and I’ll always treat your pet like family.

About: I am an elementary physical education teacher who plays a lot of sports and loves to hang out with friends and family. I love playing and taking care of dogs. When I was younger I first started to dog sit for a few friends when they go out of town for the week/weekend, but now I enjoy giving all of my free time an attention to dogs. I love to run with dogs and play with them in the yard or at parks and see the smile on their face when they are playing with their toys! I am flexible with cancellations and any specific requests you have. Reach out if you have any questions! I would love to give your dog a mini vacation!!!! I am a very active person who likes to keep busy. I work during the week and are free in the early morning and afternoon. I am comfortable in new settings and can keep routines and rules that are had in the house. I can slowly build trust with the dog and have them find their comfort with me!

We consider ourselves so very fortunate to have found Cara through Rover.com! She is so wonderful with our little man Duncan. Her communication is consistently fabulous — quick responses to any messages and great updates with photos when she is caring for Duncan. We feel so absolutely comfortable with her. If anyone ever wants to talk to someone who has been a client of Cara’s for multiple visits, we’d be happy to give feedback.

Kage and Lauren are so great. We've used them for over a year now from drop ins, to full house sitting. They keep us updated on everything, big or small, and it's really reassuring when leaving our boys alone with people. We're 100 percent planning on booking again whenever we need them, thank you guys again!!!! Definitely recommend if you're looking for someone reliable.

Katherine is the best, I would trust her with my first born child- fur baby or real baby! She is the so nice, attentive and considerate. She is thorough and thoughtful. My animals have had their own special needs and she has catered to them and made me feel 100% confident and comfortable when we were away. She sends pictures through the trip and I can say they clearly love her as Aunty Katherine. I have never seen them so loving with anyone outside of our immediate family. She is a blessing. Thank you Katherine!!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Monson

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Monson is $18 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $24 per visit. 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.

As of October 2026, there are 1,871 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Monson. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Monson. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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.

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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
