About: I've taken care of animals my whole life, from dogs and cats to reptiles and amphibians, I've care for most! Being aware and responsive to your pets needs is key! I do contract work so my schedule is flexible most of the time. Generally up late so don't mind odd hours. Also available for early mornings as well, schedule can usually made to accommodate. I have reliable transportation and can travel whenever needed. I'm comfortable and experienced in giving pets medicine or injection if need be, and I'm willing to adapt to whatever needs your pets may have.
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was real little. Also, I’ve owned cats in the past. I love all animals of all types! I’m currently working full-time so taking care of pets is a part-time job for me. Mornings, afternoons, evenings and weekends are my pet sitting times I love playing with dogs and cats! Also I’m more than happy to take them on walks, bathe them, feed them and/or give them medicine
“Harley seemed to have a good visit with Hannah! It was a semi-long day for Harley in the crate, but he was still tired for bed which means he must of had a good energy release when Hannah visited.”

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and caring for pets is second nature to me. Over the years I’ve cared for dogs, cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, a rabbit, turtles, snakes, and fish. I currently have two dogs, a cat, and a snake that I’ve raised and cared for daily—my snake has been with me for 15 years, my dogs for about 8 years, and my cat for the past year. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets, and I bring patience, attentiveness, and genuine love to every animal I meet. Whether it’s energetic puppies, senior pets, or more unique companions, always providing patient, reliable, and loving care. I’m currently between jobs, which gives me lots of flexibility and free time to dedicate to caring for pets. I’m available most weekdays and weekends, and I can adjust easily to your schedule. This allows me to give your pets plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship without feeling rushed. I care for pets in their own home so they can stay comfortable in a familiar environment. I always follow your instructions carefully, whether it’s feeding, walking, administering medication, or just giving extra love and playtime. Safety and trust are my top priorities, and I’ll treat your pets with the same patience and care I give my own.

“This was my first time using Rover and Allie went above and beyond all expectations. She tended to my boy's potty/food/water needs and showered him with tons of love. If you need a sitter that will love and take care of your babies, Allie is the one! I will 100% be utilizing her services again, should I need a sitter.”

About: I have been caring of a variety fur babies since I was a kid. I have experience with working with both younger and older fur babies. I am currently working full time while coming my masters online in counseling so I do have flexibility with working overnights. If need more availability please contact me. I have a fenced area at my apartment complex for dogs if needed. I have a variety of teats and toys for cats if needed.
“I'm very pleased with Angela and taking such good care of Atticus. I would've loved more pics of him to see how he was doing Saturday night. But she was there loving on him, I'm being selfish because I just love him so much! Thank you so much Angela!”

“Ashley was awesome. I would definitely recommend her and book her again! She was super attentive and caring to our dog while we were away. She sent pics and took our dog for a walk everyday. Super kind and responsive. No issues at all. 😊”

About: I've had pets all of my life both cats and dogs and I love them they are my happiness. Ive only ever watched my families pets so far but I have taken care of animals that need medications or special diets. I currently work full time so most of my availability will be the weekend but on weekdays I can take dogs out for a walk or if you prefer I have a backyard they can play in but my fence is short. On the weekend I can babysit them and spend much more time with them as I dont have work. I do have a fenced yard but it's not super tall most larger dogs could jump it if they wanted to most likely. I would supervise your dog the whole time they are outside though and if you prefer them on a leash I can walk them in my neighborhood.
About: I've had dogs, cats, and rabbits but have also cared for guinea pigs, turtles and fish. Caring for your pet the way you do is most important. I am available most days and times. My open availability leaves you with piece of mind knowing there's someone that can help any time of the day. I have a big yard and will be spending lots of time outside. Really big on taking hikes, and playing ball. Staying hydrated will also be priority.non smoker.

“Glenn has been coming to my house for drop in visits weekly with my 3 dogs. He is reliable and takes excellent care of my beloved pets. He communicates well and is extremely flexible.. I highly recommend him.”

About: I'm not just a dog sitter/walker, I'm your dog's best friend! What makes me stand out? Well, for starters, I have a genuine passion for dogs, and I've made it my mission to provide top-notch care. I was grown up with Tibetan mastiff in the Himalayas. Very familiar with big dogs like mastiff, German Shephard, Husky, and small dogs like beagles. By paying me for dog walking, you are directly contributing to the education of childrens in Nepal. I am using all income from Roover to pay tuition and boarding of a boy and a girl from rural and remote Nepal. I work on daytime but can take a lunch break for pawfriends. Evening and morning time will be for your pups. Your pup is my guest. I have a yard that is not fenced but I live in a good neighbour where your pup can have a nice walk. I dont have any pet.
About: I've had at least four dogs as long as I can remember. As a child, they were my first companions and my second caretakers. Even as I grew into an adult, they were always there to comfort me and to brighten the darkest of days. Dogs hold a very special place in my heart and I am eager to give back what they so willingly give; love, acceptance, understanding, comfort, and joy. In the last two years, I have gone from four dogs to one, due to Cancer and Congestive Heart Failure, and I must admit that their absence has affected me deeply. I miss them so so so much!! I'm one of those people that celebrated their dog's birthdays and bought them copious presents for Christmas. While my friends were pulling out their family pics, I was always pulling out my dog pics. I share this same sentiment towards birds, rabbits, and cats; all of which I had growing up. Being surrounded by animals as a child was a great experience. It even prompted me to volunteer at the ASPCA for almost a year. As I hope you can tell, I will not only provide what your pet needs to survive, but I will also provide him/her with special attention and love. I look forward to meeting with both you and your pet! Until then, take care! I will be able to fulfill any house/pet sitting duties without any issues, as I am able to balance my obligations responsibly and with respect to myself and those that hire me. While pet/house sitting, I will abide the rules given to me. This could include when they play, where they sleep, any medications needed, when to eat, etc.
About: As far as cats go, I have experience bathing, brushing, and trimming nails. As well as bathing and brushing for dogs. I also have experience administering liquid and pill medicine for both cats and dogs. :) I am the parent of a lazy domestic short hair cat named Eddie. I’ve had him for about three years and before Mr. Eddie, I’ve helped in providing care for many cats and dogs of all different breeds for family and friends. I feed Eddie twice a day (morning and night) and refill his water fountain every morning. Litter is changed every other day. He has two cat towers and more toys than I can count. He enjoys playing with other cats and has no problem sharing his space. As for pets in others homes I follow routines exactly as instructed.
About: My name is Allie, and I’m a 28 year old ER nurse of 6 years who is also an RN (and may or may not have missed my calling as a vet haha). Don’t get me wrong, I love caring for humans, but my real passion lies in caring for animals. I’m taking a break in between travel nursing jobs, and decided what to devote my time than caring for and loving on your furry family member! I am offering all services from dog walking, house visits, house sitting at your house, and am even open to accepting cats! I have two mini golden doodles of my own that I care for, but no worries- they would not need to be brought over to your space for any reason. I have experience working in pet stores throughout college, and also grew up caring for our family’s dogs from a young age! I have experience administering medicine for epileptic animals as one of my dogs at home has seizures. Feel free to ask me for my phone number. I can’t wait to get the opportunity to help you out with your fur babies!! I am taking a couple months off of work so I have a very open schedule to fit all your animal needs! When I go back to work I only work 3 days a week, so I will still have a pretty open and flexible schedule. I respect your home environment and ensure that I leave your home in the exact condition I found it in. I will also ensure the safety of your home in terms of locking doors, enabling security cameras/alarms, etc.

About: I've been an animal lover my entire life and have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and personalities. In addition to caring for my own pets and those of friends and family, I worked as a veterinary receptionist, where I learned how to recognize signs of illness, communicate with pet owners, and help support pets with a variety of medical needs. I'm comfortable following detailed care instructions, administering many common medications, and providing updates so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands while you're away. I understand that every pet is different, and I strive to provide patient, dependable care tailored to their individual needs. Whether your pet loves playtime, quiet companionship, or simply sticking to their normal routine, my goal is to help them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy and make time for every day. My flexible schedule allows me to provide reliable care, whether that's walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, medication administration, or simply spending quality time with your pet. I work to keep pets on their normal routine and provide regular updates so owners can have peace of mind while they're away. When caring for pets in a client's home, I strive to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and household preferences. I take time to get to know each pet's personality and comfort level so they feel safe and cared for while their family is away. Safety is always my top priority. I double-check doors, gates, leashes, and feeding instructions, and I monitor pets for any signs of illness, injury, or unusual behavior. With my background working in a veterinary office, I understand the importance of attention to detail and prompt communication if concerns arise. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pets are happy, comfortable, and receiving the care they deserve.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on experience and genuine care for dogs at every stage of life. I’ve personally taken care of my own dog for over 10 years (before he moved in with my grandparents), which has given me extensive experience in both puppy care and senior dog support. I’ve also provided special care for young, energetic dogs as well as older pets who need a bit more patience and attention. On top of that, I’ve regularly helped friends and family with their pets, whether through dog sitting, walking, or assisting with specific care needs. I truly love building trust with every dog I meet and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily and weekly routine because I currently have a very flexible schedule. I’m in the process of saving up for law school, so I have the freedom to prioritize pet sitting and can easily adjust my availability to meet the needs of each pet and their owner. Whether it’s regular walks, drop-in visits, or overnight care, I love incorporating time with animals into my day—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and look forward to. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I always prioritize making sure their pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their familiar environment. I stick closely to the pet’s regular routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions. I also take extra steps to keep the home tidy and secure while I’m there. I make sure to give plenty of attention and updates to the owners, so they feel at ease while they’re away. If I’m caring for pets in my own home, I create a cozy, pet-friendly space with lots of room to play and relax. I make sure their routine is kept as consistent as possible and that they feel like part of the family while staying with me. Whether in my home or theirs, I always approach pet care with patience, responsibility, and genuine love for animals.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 135 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Monterey. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

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.
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.
