About: I've had dogs and cats my whole life and have 10 years of experience caring for pets of all breeds and sizes, from puppies to seniors, kittens to older cats. I'm comfortable with small, medium, and large dogs, both purebred and mixed breed. I treat every pet like my own, with patience, individual attention, and lots of love. Your fur baby is in great hands! I'm currently working part-time doing social media for small businesses, so I have plenty of flexibility throughout the day! Getting outside to spend time with your fur babies is the perfect complement to my work-from-home routine. I'm available for drop-ins and walks on weekdays before 3pm and I'm happy to work around your schedule! I treat every pet's home like my own, with respect, care, and lots of love. I have 10 years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and breeds from small pups to large dogs, purebreds and mutts alike as well as cats of all ages. I am comfortable following your pet's established routine and home rules to keep them feeling safe and comfortable in their own environment. I have my own dog, Arnie, and cat, Frankie, so I truly understand how much your pets mean to you and I will treat them like family. There are trusted veterinary clinics nearby, and I will always contact you immediately if any concerns arise. Your pet's safety and happiness is my top priority!
“Erin was amazing! She was super responsive, bonded immediately with our two cats, and also kept an eye on our home... even shoveling our driveway while we were away. Would definitely recommend!”
“Madison did an excellent job with my dog, Simon. Her communication was fantastic and she did a great job sticking to Simon’s schedule. To top it off, I could tell Simon was well taken care of as he was a happy puppy when I got home. I highly reccomend Madison for any pet care needs!”
“Great communication - wonderful about picture taking! Would have Mary back again any time!! She was even great about getting the boys to go potty in the rain - and that is not an easy task.”
“Kacey is fabulous! She is so attentive to my overly needy two dogs. She definitely goes above and beyond. Kacey is excellent about communicating with me during the stay. This is my second time booking with her and I will book with her again. I also always appreciate the pictures that she sends me during the stay.”
About: I have 3 golden doodles the oldest being 10 and the youngest being 2. I have taken care of dogs since the age of 8. I have potty trained and also taught my dogs the basic skills and some tricks. I have cared for friends/family dogs and cats when they are away and need someone to watch them. I love all animals and will treat your pet like my own. I’m currently working part time, so I have time throughout the week but my schedule changes so I will keep things updated and only accept cares when I can give your pet the time they need. I always try and stick to the pets routine as much as possible so it is as stress free as possible for them. I have 3 dogs that would be able to give your pet some company if that is what you would like and if your dog is comfortable with other dogs.
“Morgan was fantastic! I was out of town and the person I had to watch my dog fell through and she went over and took care of Zoie. She took pictures and let me know everything went great. I will definitely be asking Morgan to help out again.”
About: I have grown up with pets all my life, and even went to Vet Tech school for 1 year. I had a diabetic cat so I am familiar with giving medicine and injections. I work full time from home during the day. I take breaks every hour or so. We are typically home in the evening and weekends to love and play with your animals as well as our own. I have a fenced in back yard and a playful dog to keep your fur baby company while you are away. My dog no longer needs to be kenneled when I am away or at night. I can accommodate whatever you are most comfortable with.
About: I’ve been a dog owner since the age of 8. I love taking dogs on walks, pet sitting and especially taking my dog to the off the leash dog park where she is happiest. I’m very good with all types of dogs and very patient. My wife calls me the dog whisperer. My weeknights are free and weekends are free. My wife works the opposite schedule as me so she is available during the day. It works for both dog walking and pet sitting. I have a very sweet Alaskan Husky who loves going to the dog park and is very sweet and very good with all types of dogs. We have a fenced in backyard and a pet friendly home. We have three kids who love dogs and 1 dog of our own. We love caring for dogs and getting them (and me) plenty of exercise.
“Amanda was amazing! She came to meet us and our pups, asked questions to ensure she had information needed to care for our dogs and was very timely for all check ins. There was even some issues with our pups and she sought to arrange a solution that worked great!”
About: Though I’m new to Rover, I've watched animals for friends, family, and employers for the past 10 years and would love to chat with you to see if I can help you with yours. As a former receptionist at an emergency vet clinic and with extensive experience with my own fur babies, I'm very aware of the health risks to both cats and dogs and have training in recognizing signs of distress. I will work with you to establish an emergency plan beforehand if you are going on extended trips. I also have experience with several vets in the area and even bringing animals to the animal chiropractor. I know that every animal's personality is unique, and routines are important for managing stress. My goal is to be that trustworthy, consistent, and dependable addition to your animal's care team. We always had multiple cats and dogs at one time in my family home growing up. They were more than my animals; they were my brothers and sisters and beloved friends. I've loved and cared for 3 of my cats and 2 of my dogs into their senior years and through medical complications. I have experience with administering medications, including insulin to cats, animals with arthritis, and care after major procedures. I currently have open availability during weekdays M-F. I'm here to provide weekday support via check-ins and walks for busy families, as well as support with home visits if you are on vacation. I do work weekends, so my availability over weekends is limited. I respect all house rules and work with you to get every detail of care, big or small. You set how many updates you’d like to receive when away, but it’s standard for me to write a document of all activity and behavior after each of my visits for you and your vet to reference at any time. I’m happy to do initial home visits to make sure care works for us both.
About: I’ve been around animals all my life. I have three goldendoodles, Sullie who’s 10, Allie who’s 5, and Marlie who’s 2. I have helped potty train them all and have taught them basic tricks. I have also cared for friends/families pets when in need. I love all animals and enjoy making them feel safe and comfortable. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, medications, or extra cuddles, I’m happy to help. I’m currently a full-time nursing student and have a summer nurse internship working 12 hour shifts, but I have multiple days off throughout the week that allow me to spend quality time caring for pets. My schedule varies, so I keep my availability updated. When I’m caring for your pet, they’ll get lots of attention, love, and dependable care! I always try to stick to each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and stress free. In your home, I will provide feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, litter box cleanup, potty breaks, and lots of attention and affection. I also make sure the home is left clean and secure. I’ll also keep owners updated with photos and messages so they know their pet is doing well!
About: I’ve had various of animals my whole life. I’ve had animals of all scales, from cows & horses, to lizards & ferrets. As well as training various of dogs from all different breeds, I understand your “scary” dog, as well as your sweet little lap dog! Between my previous employment at a boarding facility and my current employment at the animal shelter, i’ve worked and handled many different personality’s and breeds of dogs and cats. Hey! I have a full time job at an animal boarding facility, but I typically only work 4 days a week and it’s usually morning shifts. I’m willing to get up a little earlier or stay up a little later to give your pet some attention. Shoot me a message and I can let you know my hours and we can see if I would be a good fit! I unfortunately can’t have fur babies come to my house, but i’m more than happy to come to you! I will keep your dogs on leash if you don’t have a fenced backyard, unless informed otherwise. I will also bring your pups on walks, I will keep them on leash, and use an extra leash if needed.
“Osha did a great job taking care of my Surlee while I was away on holiday. He followed all my instructions, relieving me of any concern. I will gladly call upon him when needed. Book with confidence!”
About: I have grown up with dogs and cats my whole life. I have worked with training puppies, caring for senior dogs, to all ages in between. I have taken care of my parents senior dog who had a horrible heart murmur and needed constant attention. Working with animals is my absolute and favorite thing to do. I will care for neutered males, un-neutered puppies under a year. I will care for females that are or aren’t spayed along with female puppies. If a senior dog needs medications, constant reassurance and has to be calm I am more than willing to care for them. I start working Monday through Friday from 3:30pm to 12am so anytime during the week for overnights won’t work out. I will be able to do drop in visits or a doggy daycare in the morning up until 1pm.

I do have cats but the female hides all the time and my male will be best friends with dogs since he thinks he is a dog.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Monticello stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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 Monticello 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. 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 .

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.

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.
