“Meaghan was great with communication and I can tell that she gave a good amount of attention to our cats while we were away. We greatly appreciate the clean-up when we got home. I will certainly rebook with her the next time we need a sitter.”
About: I’ve worked in animal care for years now and have taken care of my own pets for years before that. I have experience with a huge variety of sizes and breeds! I’m well versed in animal behavior and temperaments. I’ve worked with puppies all the way up to senior pets who may need a little extra care or attention. I have my own pets as well and have a deep understanding how much they can mean to us. I’m currently working on my certificate for dog grooming! I have yet to start school but this is a dream I’ve had for a while now. At the moment, I’m almost completely open for sitting. I think enrichment is very important for pets. For dogs, getting outside is a must. Many breeds require a lot of stimulation throughout the day in order to stay healthy in mind and body alike. For cats, some are independent players and toys are a must. Others may like to play with a person and that’s an activity that’s very important for them. I personally feed my animals once in the morning, once at night. My dog typically gets at least one walk a day and I make sure to take him out 2-3 times a day for potty breaks. Or even more if he lets me know he has to go. My one cat is an independent player so I leave her toys in her favorite places.
About: I have 3 large dogs in my household, all of very different personalities. On top of that, friends and family have also relied on me to take care of their pets while they are away as well. Recently, I have taken interest in animal rescue, and have helped rescue and send an injured mallard to the Chicago Bird Collision Monitors. I am currently a student at west aurora highschool, and I am a member of the national honor society. I come home to my three dogs and sometimes go to Oswego to take care of my families pets over there as well. I will be able to regularly check up on your pets and keep them well hydrated and fed. As well as going on walks to stay active.
“Samantha did a great job of taking care of our almost 11 year old Zeus! We had some drop in visits and Samantha sent us notes and photos of her time with Zeus. We were very happy and highly recommend.”
About: I’ve taken care of our own, family and friends dogs since I was a kid. I previously worked with a dog walking company in college. I currently have my own, a 3-year-old Cavapoo named Berlioz who I adore. I look forward to hopefully meeting your furry friend! My schedule is pretty flexible right now. I am working part-time, so I can be available whenever needed. I prefer weekdays, but am willing to do weekends. Timing is flexible as well :) I have a fenced-in yard, and two dogs at the house. They are both under 20 pounds, but friendly. I can also keep dogs separated if needed.
About: Hi, I'm Tim! I've always loved animals and genuinely enjoy spending time with pets of all shapes, sizes, ages, and personalities. I understand that your pets are family, and when you're away, I believe they deserve the same love, attention, and care they receive from you. I'm dependable, patient, and attentive to each pet's individual needs. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddling on the couch, or simply sticking to a familiar routine, I'm committed to making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and happy while you're away. I recently cared for five dogs and two cats for an entire week, and I treated them as if they were my own. I made sure they had fresh food and water, took the dogs on regular walks, spent quality time with each animal, and kept a close eye on their overall well-being. My goal was to ensure they felt loved and secure until their owner returned home. I also believe in going above and beyond. During my stay, I completed a few small projects around the house, helped keep everything tidy, and thoroughly cleaned before the owner's return. I take pride in leaving both pets and homes in excellent condition. When you hire me, you're getting more than a pet sitter. You're getting someone who genuinely cares about animals, respects your home, communicates reliably, and will do everything possible to give you peace of mind while you're away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! Daily routine morning to evening. Specialized care with lots of Love. There will be plenty of play time for each furry baby. Individual time is the most important. They would be walked securely. It really depends on your pets needs. I will adapt my time to each animal as needed. If at any time I will reach out if I have questions.
“Valerie did a great job for us while we were out of town for five days. Our dog, cat, fish, and house were well taken care of. We enjoyed being notified via the app when Valerie started and ended her visits. Her added photos and videos of our animals provided us assurance all was well and were fun to see. We provided Valerie with detailed care directions for our dog, cat, fish, and house needs. It was great to see those directions being put into action via Valerie's photos and videos. Thank you, Valerie, for taking care of our pet family members and home while we were traveling. We greatly appreciate your efforts.”
About: 10+ years of training and taking care of dogs. Have 2 amazing dogs myself. People say me and dogs have a connection. There’s never been a dog that doesn’t like me, even the “meanest” of the bunch. Treat every dog like my own. I work completely remote from the comfort of my house. I have plenty of time to do pet care. I am available on a days notice. Ready to do as many visits and take care of as many beautiful pups as possible! I will only be doing drop in visits or walks at other peoples homes. I treat every dog as if they were my own. Making sure I abide by directions and rules given by the owner. Dogs sense a good person and I promise they will sense that with me. Me and dogs have a super connection some people can’t explain
“I just got home to the happiest kitties - Amelia was great! She’s an excellent communicator and I’m grateful that someone so caring was here for the cats while I was away. Thank you, Amelia!”
“Kari is such a rockstar! She was able to fit us in super last minute and still make sure everyone got fed and checked in. Despite our grumpy cat's best effort she was still able to check on her too. Lol you cannot go wrong booking Kari :)”
About: Caring for animals has always come naturally to me. Pet care is at my core. I have experience caring for dogs and cats with different energy levels and needs, from playful puppies to calm senior pets. I’m patient, attentive, and mindful of each pet’s routine, comfort, and safety. Whether it’s walks, feedings, playtime, or quiet companionship, I make sure every pet feels loved and secure while you’re away. Your pet’s well-being is always my top priority. On days I’m booked to watch your fur baby, that is my ultimate top priority! I will change my schedule to be there for him/her. I have a fenced in yard, and a friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. I also have three cats. I can easily create your dog if needed. I’m fully capable of giving any medication required. When I’m watching your fur baby, I will be available the entire time. Right there, with them.
About: I’ve taken care of pets my whole life, have had dogs since I was a baby. And have consistently pet sat for neighbors and friends. I’ve also volunteered at vet clinics. I am a college student home for the summer. And I’m looking for some extra work! Please reach out if you need pet care. :) All care is provided in the client’s home so pets can stay comfortable in their own environment. I follow your pet’s normal routine for feeding, walks, and playtime, and always prioritize safety, cleanliness, and respect for your home. I’m also happy to send updates and photos while you’re away!
“I was a litter nervous since I haven’t tried Rover before. I was lucky enough to have Michaela taking care of my pups. She made everything so easy and comfortable for us. My pups love her!! They enjoyed playing together when she came for drop in visit. Will definitely book again in the future! Thanks a ton !”
“Thank you Shannon for taking care of Milo and Chief this week! Your promptness and reliability really relieved worry for me on how long the dogs would be in the crates without a break. I appreciate the daily walks! Thanks again! You’re definitely recommend and I’ll reach out to you again when needed!”
“Michelle was flexible and reliable and Boomer absolutely loved her! She was considerate and thoughtful and I highly recommend Michelle and look forward to (hopefully) book her again and again and again!!!! Thanks Michelle”

Balbina was absolutely wonderful with my dogs! She is incredibly reliable, responsible, and truly cares about animals. I always felt at ease knowing my boys were in such good hands. She was patient, kind, and made sure they were well taken care of and happy. She also communicated well and was very dependable throughout the entire booking. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter. Thank you so much, Balbina!
Alyssa is such an amazing sitter and caregiver! My 6 month GSD/Malinois mix is very energetic and can be a handful as he learns his commands and works through training but that didnt mind Alyssa! She helped reinforce his trainings during her time with him and although it took a few, he became acclimated to her and listened. Alyssa must be an animal whisperer! I am so happy we have found our "go to" sitter for Jefe! I cannot thank you enough as its very difficult for me to leave my little babes. You make it easy! ❤️

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Montgomery 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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Montgomery with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
