“I am so grateful for this sitter! I needed to book a last-minute sitter for an event, and she replied super fast. She was incredibly nice and accommodating with Payton. Drop-off and pick-up were both a breeze, and she even sent me a picture of Payton during the stay, which gave me great peace of mind. I highly recommend her and will definitely book again!”

I received multiple updates and pictures while we were away. We’ve booked with her twice now and will continue to use her for the future.”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was around 13, from pet sitting for neighbors, friends and family to working professionally in dog daycare and boarding facilities. I have experience with dogs of all ages and sizes, including puppies and senior dogs. I’m comfortable giving medications, following prescription diets and special feeding instructions, and I also have experience giving insulin injections to diabetic dogs. My professional experience has also included bathing, daycare/boarding care and transporting pets. I have three dogs of my own, including my 11-year-old husky mix and two young dachshunds, so I’m very comfortable with everything from puppy energy to senior care. I currently have a very flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time for pet care throughout the week. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits and other pet care during weekdays and weekends. I’m happy to work with your pet’s normal routine as much as possible, whether that means early potty breaks, meal times, medications or just some extra playtime and attention. I treat every pet like I would want someone to treat my own. I pay close attention to feeding instructions, medications, potty schedules and each pet’s individual routine. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs and dogs with special care needs. I’m also very mindful of doors, gates, leashes and surroundings because I know how quickly a curious dog can decide it’s time for an adventure! I’m happy to follow whatever routine and safety rules you have in place in your home.

“Our dog Marley tends to be anxious in new situations since she was a shelter dog, but seemed comfortable in Amanda’s home the moment we walked in for drop off. It made me feel much better about leaving our newly adopted girl for over a week! She sent updates and pictures often while we were on vacation. Would not hesitate to use Amanda again for future dog sitting and will recommend her to my friends!”

“Crystal was amazing this weekend. I had complete confidence when she babysat our older dog. During our meet and greet I noticed that her home and backyard are “pet proof”, so I knew that our sweetie would be safe during his visit with her. As a bonus, Crystal is super sweet! She sent periodical updates to let me know that things were going well while she was sitting our fur baby. I am so happy to have found a trustworthy and sweet person for our overnight and daycare sitter needs.”

About: To begin my long and ongoing animal care journey, I have been working at a grooming salon for seven and half years. This was my introduction to learning key behaviors about different breeds of dogs. As well as gaining knowledge on the individual needs for each client. I was able to understand the importance of safety for the animal as well as for myself. Honestly, my favorite part was making a connection with people through taking care of who they consider to be a family member. While it was a lot of pressure caring for animals at a young age, it was instrumental in building my character and obtaining the confidence to be passionate about animals. This is my first job that ultimately led to my drive for veterinary medicine. I have been involved at a veterinary clinic for the past two summers and let me tell you it has been such an exciting journey! I started off learning animal behavior, but now I get to connect it to science! At a clinic you are given insight on how to work swiftly in doing what’s best for an animal's health while wearing your heart on your sleeve with clients. That skill has been something that I am most grateful for being in the field of veterinary science! Along with those jobs, during the semesters I work just off campus at the Aquatic Germplasm Genomic Resource Center where I have the privilege to take care of a variety of fish, frogs, and axolotls! Finally, I babysit pets for former teachers, family members, you name it! I just love being a helping hand wherever I am needed! I’m currently working only 4 to 5 hours a week, so I am most flexible Thursday through Friday! I am available for boarding on the weekends! On Thursdays I am available after 2:30 pm and Fridays after 3:30 pm! I love to provide walks as frequently as I can. It's great for the physical and mental wellbeing of the pet. With that being said I would have heavily detailed conversations with clients to ensure how their pet is around other animals as well as any leash training techniques that are in place. This way I can know what environments will be stress free for the pet when we decide to head out for some outside playing. I follow the owners’ instructions on regular feedings, exercise, cleanliness of the animal and house rules. Lastly, I am a firm believer in photo and video updates! I know how nerve wracking it can be entrusting someone with caring for our furry friends!

“We contacted Lisa the morning we needed someone to watch our sheltie and she responded promptly and gladly offered to watch her for the week. Our dog was immediately at ease with Lisa and her husband and I know she (our dog) thoroughly enjoyed her “vacation” because I don’t think she wanted to leave when we picked her up! They even offered to give her a bath which was above and beyond our expectations. We will definitely be back to see them next time we travel.”

“I felt so secure leaving Oso with JC! She communicated perfectly, always responded in a timely manner, sent photos and updates on how he was getting along with others. I will 100% be bringing Oso back to her whenever I travel. Usually Oso can’t get away quick enough from people that watch him, but he hung around and wanted her to pet him when she came to drop him off. She has such good energy, very knowledgeable about all dogs, and I could tell Oso felt like he went on vacation with her!”

He loves outside a she spent a lot of outside time with him, he looked very happy when I return from my trip. Got another coming up hope she can help me out.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Monticello

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 214 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Monticello. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.

97% of sitters in Monticello can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Monticello home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:

  • Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
  • Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
  • Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Monticello.

Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

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

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.

You and your Monticello sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.

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.

While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.

Many sitters in LA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.

Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
