About: I've cared for dogs for many years through my own pets, regularly caring for friends' and family members' dogs, and volunteering with animals at a shelter. During college, I frequently watched dogs/cats for classmates while they were away, including providing feeding, walks, playtime, and general supervision. I also provided extended care for an active-duty military friends dog while they were deployed. I currently have my own dog and am comfortable following individual routines and making sure pets are safe, happy, and well cared for. I’m primarily available Friday evenings through Sunday, with my weekend availability running until around 7 PM on Sunday. I can also accommodate shorter weekday visits, such as potty breaks or walks, between approximately 6–8 PM when needed (just send a message first!). I work full-time during the week, so I’m mainly a weekend sitter and am happy to provide consistent weekend care. I take pet safety and individual routines seriously and will follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications, and other care needs. For drop-in visits, I can provide potty breaks, neighborhood walks, or supervised playtime, including trips to the dog park when appropriate. I have my own friendly dog, Millie, so dogs staying in my home would need to be comfortable around other dogs. I live in an apartment, so dogs in my care get regular outdoor walks and supervised exercise.
“We had a super quick out of town trip to take and needed someone to take care of our pup on short notice. Shawn & Jacob were very easy to work with and accepted our request immediately. They were great with communication and followed our directions well.”
“Very happy with the job Rachel did taking care of my cats while I was away. Very good communication and always provided updates and photos. Will definitely rebook this sitter again. Highly recommend!”
“Yuki had a wonderful time with our pet sitter! She had so much fun playing with their pets and came home happy and well cared for. They were incredibly kind, friendly, and made us feel comfortable from the start. Communication was excellent throughout the stay, with prompt responses and updates that gave us peace of mind. Their home is also very convenient to ours, which made drop-off and pick-up easy. We couldn't be happier with the experience and will definitely be booking with them again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and trustworthy pet sitter!”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, from playful puppies to sweet senior dogs. I’m patient, reliable, and always attentive to each pet’s unique needs—whether that means sticking to a strict medication schedule, handling energetic walks, or offering extra cuddles for anxious pets. I also have experience with basic training and positive reinforcement, which helps keep pets engaged and well-behaved. What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals and my commitment to providing a safe, loving environment they can feel comfortable in while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I make sure to plan my schedule so I can give each pet the time, attention, and care they deserve—whether that means early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening cuddles. I’m flexible and happy to adjust to your pet’s routine to keep them comfortable and happy while you’re away. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in yours, their safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I create a calm, pet-friendly environment free of hazards, and I follow any specific instructions you provide to keep your pet on their regular routine. I take the time to build trust with each pet through gentle interactions and consistent care. I’m also attentive to behavior and health changes, and I always communicate openly with pet parents to ensure peace of mind.
“This was our first time using rover.com or any pet sitter, and it was a great experience. Katrina is wonderful! She came out twice prior to us leaving on our trip to meet and spend time with our 2 dogs and bad cat, and familiarize herself with our pet care instructions, etc., and our bebbies were very comfortable with her. She’s an excellent pet sitter - arriving as scheduled and sending updates and lots of photos at every visit, so we were able to go out of town without worrying about the fuzzlebutts. We highly recommend Katrina!”
About: Retired Air Force military veteran with a lot of time in their hands. A trusted friend and coworker in case they needed help with their dog. Retired military with plenty of time in their hands. Willing to discuss any type of routine to help accommodate your pets or best friends needs I am willing to meet with the pet owner / caretaker ahead of time to assess the trustworthiness of me and the owners pet before bookong.
About: I have been caring for pets for over three years and possess substantial experience in working with animals. I am genuinely enthusiastic about the opportunity collaborate with you. I am available to work a full-time schedule from 10 AM to 6 PM or 8 to 4 PM. Additionally, I can work part-time if needed; however, I have a preference for full-time hours if given the opportunity. I provide pet sitting services at clients', well as walking and house sitting for pets. Since I reside in an apartment complex, am able to house dogs if a crate is provided.
About: I have been a kennel tech in the past, I have always had a love for animals. I have always had animals in my life. I currently have 1 dogs, 1 cat, 2 rabbits. I currently have open availability to give your pets the love and attention they want. I love being around animals and surround myself with them and love them like my own. 😊 In my home we do lots of cuddle and play time. Going for walks and to play with other animals is always at the top of our list. Keep the day fun filled and crazy and then home for some long snuggles and nap times. I currently stay at home durning the day so I am available for walks and drop in visits and if you need a sitter for the day. It is very important that all the animals I watch get the love and attention they deserve. I know that my baby has certain allergies and I would want whoever was watching her to respect the rules put in place and I would do the same with someone else’s pet. They are one of the most important things in our families.
“Tara went above and beyond, she helped with our dog while we were traveling all the way from Maryland. She was very professional and great with our Roscoe. She was so helpful, even before we arrived to help us plan out how we would navigate our day. Highly recommend her services!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Montgomery
Marie was a life saver. I had just moved to Montgomery and then had to leave the next day for a work trip. Marie accepted the request on short notice and came over the next day! Pickles (who usually hides from everyone) even let Marie pet her! Marie fed and kept Pickles happy and sent me pics and detailed updates daily. I was worried about leaving Pickles so soon after a move and having Marie care for her put me at ease so I could focus on my first conference at my new job. I will use Marie every time I need someone to keep Pickles happy and fed and cares for. Marie also knew when Pickles had had enough of being nice to a new person and gave her space. Oh! And I so appreciated the pics and updates after Marie’s visits. Thank you Marie!
This was my first time using this service and I am GRATEFUL to have chosen Antonio. He was patient, kind, and fully engaged with my senior fur baby. Dutch does not typically gravitate to people easily but there was no barrier in care with Antonio. I will definitely be reaching out again!
We loved having Hannah take care of our elderly pup for us again. She took great care of him and cleaned up after him well. She followed our instructions perfectly and was on time and prompt with visits. Loved the photos and extensive comment card. Highly recommend !

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Montgomery is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $28 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 180 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Montgomery. 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.

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.
