“Sandy was so great for our drop in visits for our cat! Our house was currently in disarray with replacing our flooring, so she brought toys for our cat to play with during their visits! Definitely will book again :)”
“Karlee was awesome with our dogs! They seemed to be very comfortable with her. We loved that she sent several photos to keep us updated while we were away. We will definitely be using her in the future!”
“I two little dogs gave Amy 4 paws up on her daily visits with them. I reached out to 5 different sitters on the same day and Amy was the first reply and very professional with our transaction. The entire process was seamless and Amy made me and my dogs feel like we were her top priority.”
“Erika is a wonderful cat sitter! She is very responsive, dependable and took great care of our cat. In addition to giving her love, food and cuddles, she also brushed her and scooper her litter. I will be booking with Erika again!”
“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!”
“Above and beyond is an understatement for how well Kelsey cared for my cats and my home while I was away. She was patient with them, adapted to their needs/personalities, and sent regular updates assuring me that they were doing well. I felt so much more relaxed when I was away knowing they were in her care. I’ll absolutely be booking her again, you couldn’t ask for a better, more trustworthy and caring person to watch your pets!”
“Megan did a couple drop-ins for my dog Milo and I have no complaints! She was willing to swing by over the weekend to meet him before she dropped in which was much appreciated. She is friendly and provides photos and great reports of how Milo is doing when she drops in. I hate to leave him home for so long but it gives me some peace of mind knowing that he has a new buddy to come visit him during the day. :)”
“Mirabel always has a blast when Paige takes care of her! Paige was available for a last minute drop in due to a schedule change. We appreciate how Paige updates us during the visit and how happy Mirabel during their time together! We highly recommend Paige to care for your dogs!”
About: Have taken care of all dog size. For as long as I can remember. I’ve taken care of multiple dogs at the same time for multiple dog families. I’m working part time so very flexible on schedule. Very open to times on when your animal needs to use the bathroom or needs company. I have a very large yard where your animal can run around. And I’m near a dog park if needed. Very patient with your pet that may be more scared.
About: I've taken care of animals of all kinds since I was 10. I am currently accepting to take of dogs in my home whether they doggy daycare, overnight stay, extended overnights, and dog walking/feeding. I love to give dogs all kinds of cuddles and love. I understand that dogs speak to us though actions in which I am very empathetic with. I will be patient, kind amd caring showing your dog(s) lots of attention and love. I have excellent references. I'm currently working part time, so while I'm gone I can crate your dog but will be back within 4 hours for a potty break! Im available between 5pm- 7pm for drop offs and pick ups Monday through Friday. Saturday and Sunday from 9am -5pm I have a home where your dog can roam or I can crate them if need be. I will keep them on a leash if when we go outside and I don't live far from a very large dog park where I can take your dog to play catch if you are comfortable with that of course.
“Regan always goes above and beyond for my babies!! Checks in on time, gives frequent updates and pics galore!! My girls adore her too! We are so blessed to someone of her caliber to care for our critters.”
About: I absolutely love dogs and treat every pet like family. I’ve been around dogs my entire life — growing up with them and always having them as part of my family. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing extra patience and attention. I have personally raised two puppies (including one currently) and helped care for several others, so I understand the consistency, training, and care young dogs need. I also had my own dog live to 15 years old, which gave me experience caring for a dog through every stage of life, including senior care. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I will make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Whether your pup loves walks, playtime, cuddles, or just companionship, I’m happy to provide the care and attention they deserve. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine, and I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention and consistent care. I work from home on Mondays and Fridays, which allows me to provide care throughout the day and stop by in the morning, during lunch, and at night as needed. On Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, I am available for morning and evening visits/check-ins. When I’m in town on weekends, my schedule is very flexible, so I’m often available for additional visits, walks, or extended care. Because of my schedule, I’m able to provide reliable care, maintain routines, and make sure pets get the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. I make sure pets have plenty of attention, exercise, potty breaks, fresh water, meals on schedule, and of course lots of affection and playtime. I understand that every dog has different needs and personalities, so I adjust my care based on their energy level, age, and routine. I have experience with puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs, so I’m comfortable providing patient and attentive care for all stages of life. In a client’s home, I always respect their space and follow any instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications, crate routines, walks, and any special care requests. I also like to provide updates and photos so owners can feel comfortable knowing their pet is happy and well cared for.
About: I’ve owned and cared for pets my whole life. I used to care for my neighbors cats, dogs and children! I have a masters degree in early childhood so I have an immense amount of patience. I am an elementary school teacher, so on the week days I am available after 5pm. My weekends are more open- let me know what you and your pet need and we can work something out! My boyfriend and I have two cats; Flash Gordon and Stevie Louise. They are the most spoiled kitties and I offer the same treatment and love to any other animals I meet.
“Thank you, Nathan, for taking such good care of Smokey and Sparky! Your daily visits and reports made me feel comfortable that the cats were well taken care of. Whenever I'm gone in the future I'll certainly call upon Nathan and recommend him to my friends! Thanks again ...Fr. Mike”

My first booking with Amy and it was wonderful. She was a great communicating with me as I had quite a few instructions for her in taking care of my puppy. She was so good with him and he seemed very happy when I got home. I will hire Amy again, no question! I highly recommend her!
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Monticello on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 1,597 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Monticello. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
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.
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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Monticello. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
