“Kristina won Marty over, who can be a bit shy at first! She kept me up to date with pics and updates a few times a day which helped my anxiety decrease so much I could actually be present at my work thing. This was my first time letting someone I haven’t known for a while before watch him and I would trust her to watch him again.”
“Rachel was wonderful! Super responsible and really put my mind at ease while we were traveling. She kept great communication and sent daily photos and videos, which I really appreciated. She left the place spotless, and I would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone!”
About: * Long walks, happy paws, and loving care. * Where every walk feels like an adventure. * Treating your pets like they’re my own. * Making tails wag and pet parents smile. * Trusted pet care with a lifelong love of animals. After recently retiring, I now have the freedom to spend my time caring for pets. Staying active is important to me, and my daily 4-mile walks make me a great companion for dogs who enjoy exercise, adventure, and lots of attention. I specialize in drop-in visits, dog walking, and house sitting at your home so your pets can stay where they feel most at ease.
“Ava was great! We had a longer trip and she kept us updated each day! She followed all our instructions, left our place clean, and we felt confident Lucie was well taken care of!”
“Anuja was great and handled my pack responsibly and lovingly. I gave a big mastiff that requires a specific feeding regimen and she was great at understanding the requirements. I will absolutely use her again!”
“Highly recommend Donna as both a dog and house sitter. My plants did better while I was gone than when I'm at home, the house was perfectly clean, and I got lots of sweet photos during our time away. Donna responds quickly to messages, shows up on time, and was willing to put in the time to get to know our reactive pup. So grateful to have found such a great dog sitter!”
“Elizabeth did a wonderful job caring for our little dog, Coco. She connected well with Coco during our meet and greet. Coco is a bit shy and she warmed to Elizabeth immediately. While we were away, Elizabeth sent us updates of how the two of them were doing. She also took excellent care of our home — leaving things nicer than she found them! I would highly recommend her as a dog and house sitter. We are looking forward to having her back!”
“Courtney was the best! She's got great energy, the animals loved her, we got lots of pictures, and we came back to two very happy fur babies and a clean house. Thanks so much :D 10/10”
“Stephanie was great with our rescue, Molly. We had never left her before and were very nervous about it. Molly warmed up to her quickly and Stephanie was great with her. I would highly recommend her to care for any of your furry family members!!!”
“Michelle is wonderful!!! She took care of both our pups while we were gone on a family vacation. She provided optimal care, snuggling with our babies and sent pics when out on walks!! She helped soothe my anxiety with prompt texts, I would absolutely recommend her again!!”
“Tianyu was great! She was extremely responsive during her stay with our older dog, Otis, and provided great updates and photos/videos. She kept our house and backyard extra clean. We will book with her again in the future!”
“I'm extremely happy to have found Vanessa to watch my dogs. She has been a consistently great communicator, accommodated some of my schedule changes, and took great care of my Klondike and Yukon. I came home to two tired dogs and couldn't be happier!”
About: You deserve complete peace of mind while away, and it should be a vacation for your pets, too. I work from home, have no pets of my own, and only take one client at a time, so your pet is guaranteed a calm environment and my 100% undivided attention. I am the go-to pet sitter for friends and family because I am highly reliable and observant. Having cared for dogs and cats since middle school, I’m deeply passionate about animal wellness. I excel at reading a pet's body language and noticing the small things, allowing me to quickly adapt to their needs and keep them completely comfortable in my home. Since I work from home, looking after a dog fits right into our day. I have plenty of time to hang out and play with your pup, and I am used to doing morning and evening walks, with fetch breaks throughout the workday. I always stick closely to whatever instructions you leave to make sure your dog stays on their usual routine and feels right at home. I mostly care for pets in our own home, where I have a secure, fenced yard and plenty of space inside for them to relax and get comfortable. Because I work from home, they get constant supervision and plenty of potty breaks. Every pet is different, so I am super flexible and always stick strictly to whatever routine, feeding schedule, or rules you have in place to make sure they feel right at home.
“Deja was very friendly and professional. She took great care of my super senior yorkie who has bad separation anxiety and my active indoor/outdoor cat. She was patient with my yorkie when she wasn’t eating and found wants to get her to eat her dinner. Deja sent me the cutest photos and videos. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing my pets were in good hands. I will definitely book with Deja again.”
“Adam was great. Spent a week with our 2 pets. Even Loki the cat warmed quickly to him. I would highly recommend Adam. He took good care of our house and pets and I will definitely use him again.”
“We cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience with Stephanie! From the very first meeting, she made us all feel so comfortable. She is truly a dog person who goes above and beyond for every pup in her care. We have two dogs with very different needs: one is reactive, and the other has ongoing medical requirements. Finding someone we trust with both of them felt daunting but Stephanie came in with calmness, confidence, and knowledge, knowing exactly how to approach our reactive dog and handling our other pup's medical needs with skill and care. Stephanie was wonderful at keeping me in the loop and made it obvious that our dogs' comfort and wellbeing were her top priority. We feel so incredibly lucky to have found her and will asolutely be booking with her again. If you have dogs with special needs, look no further!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Monte Sereno
Ava was so amazing with our three pets. She stayed in our home to watch our dog and two cats. I had never left our dog with anyone except family, so I was nervous going in. Ava was so wonderful with all three animals, and sent frequent updates so I didn’t have to worry if they were okay. She handled our stubborn dog and picky senior cats with so much patience and flexibility. Our time away went so smoothly because of how wonderful she was. We couldn’t recommend her more and will be booking her again the next time we go out of town!
Kseniia was absolutely amazing! We couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter. From the moment we met her, we knew our Labrador, Sandy, was going to be in wonderful hands. Kseniia stayed at our home while we were away and took exceptional care of Sandy. She made sure Sandy got lots of walks, plenty of love and attention, and all the care she needed. It was so reassuring to receive updates and photos, and we could tell Sandy was happy, comfortable, and having a great time. When we came home, Sandy was relaxed, healthy, and clearly well cared for. Our house was also spotless and exactly as we left it. It gave us such peace of mind knowing both our home and our beloved dog were being looked after by someone so kind, responsible, and trustworthy. We are incredibly grateful to Kseniia and wouldn't hesitate to book her again. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, dependable, and truly outstanding pet sitter. Thank you, Kseniia, for taking such wonderful care of Sandy—we can't wait to have you watch her again!
Ben was great. He cared for Sophie, our high-energy German Shepherd mix for 10 days, in our home. He took great care of Sophie, and she liked him immediately. He did everything exactly as we asked, and took good care of our home as well. He sent photos of their walks and playtime every day, and always made us comfortable that things were going well. I would highly recommend Ben.
This is my second time booking with Cassidy to house sit my animals, and I don’t want to have to book with anyone else ever again. She is nothing but professional and responsive when communicating, attentive and loving to my animals, and proactive in cleaning up after herself and the animals and things I didn’t even think to ask for.
Sharon is the BEST!!! She provided prompt communication, several pics and videos of our pups, and took wonderful care of them!! She even vacuumed the pile of dog hair I usually come home to, took out the trash, and left the house as she found it!! She is 10/10 and I would absolutely recommend her!!
We had a great experience with Anjali! She was very trustworthy, communicative, and clearly loves animals. Our dog and two cats instantly trusted her, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We’d absolutely book her again and highly recommend her.
Jacquie is excellent! Right off the bat, our pup loved her vibe and was drawn to her. At our meet and greet, she was prompt, personable and genuine. Over the course of our trip, we received daily updates and photos, and Jacquie made sure to check-in if there was something we hadn’t explained or something came up that was off-schedule. She even brought our sweet girl to Thanksgiving with her family, so she wouldn’t be lonely. We will definitely book with Jacquie again!
I booked Sekyeong last minute and she was absolutely wonderful! So sweet, flexible, and easy to work with. My pets were well cared for and happy when I got home, and I could tell they were in great hands. I’ll definitely be using her again in the future. Highly recommend!

FAQs for House Sitting - Monte Sereno
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Monte Sereno on Rover is $69.93 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 3,873 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Monte Sereno. 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 Monte Sereno 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 Monte Sereno 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 Monte Sereno 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.

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.
