“Susana was wonderful! She took great care of our three cats and a bunch of our little foster kittens! She even managed to administer last minute medications for all three squirmy kittens. She was great to communicate with and we definitely plan to book her again!”
“Katie visited for a meet and greet which greatly helped me decide she was a good fit for our 2 cats. Did everything that was asked for, in a fairly complicated set up, due to one of our cats being blind and deaf. Found both cats on our return happy and settled. Thank you Katie”
About: Hey there! I’ve pet sat off and on for the last decade for family and friends. I even have experience working in an animal shelter. I’ve worked with dogs and cats of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments. I work full-time and live an active lifestyle. However, as a mama of two fur babies, I understand the importance of making time to properly care and look in on them through the day. I am happy to care for your fur babies right in the comfort of their own home. I believe it is important that their time apart from you be as stress free as possible.
“Josephine was wonderful! She was kind, caring, compassionate, and quick to respond if any issues arose. She was professional and treated my cats like they were her own. I would absolutely use her services again in the future!”
About: Been around all sizes, breeds, and ages of dogs. Over the course of my childhood we rescued numerous dogs with behavioral problems. I can read dogs behavior very well and meet there needs. Sounds like a dream to make extra money walking furry friends. Also give me an excuse to get out of the house more and walk more. I have the upmost respect for my clients, their house, their rules. I will ensure I am respectful and leave the property better than I found it.
“Rose did a great job with my very shy and anxious kitty! Normally my cat hides in my bedroom the entire time I have a sitter... because Rose was patient and respectful of her majesty's boundaries, my girl felt comfortable enough to roam around the house, jump up on windowsills, and gaze out the front door - all things she normally doesn't do with a sitter. Definitely will hire Rose again!”
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was 15 years old. Most of them I have either met online or the neighborhood. I have worked with any age from 0-12 and can make your baby feel at home while their owners are not around. I currently work night shifts 4 days a week so I have tons of time to feed, walk, or bathe you’re loved ones. Whenever I am not at home I do have my boyfriend at home holding down the fort so your baby will never be alone. You can trust me with feeding, walking, bathing and/or giving them their medicines. I will show them just as much love as I show my own furries and if they are at my home, my babies will make them feel welcome.
About: I’ve taken care of cats for a long time. I’m no stranger to cats’ individual personalities and quirks when it comes to mealtimes or playtime. I will make sure litter boxes are fresh and will do Accident Patrol through the house and make sure everything is in order and comfortable for them. Looking forward to meeting them! *NE Heights and NobHill/ UNM preferred** I work at a brewery so I am available mornings, afternoons or even late at night if that’s what you need! Lunchtime weekday visits are possible depending on the day- it varies but I’m sure we can work out a good schedule! I care for pets in my home as they are my dependents. Each of my three have different needs and preferences. I empty the litter boxes in my home twice a day and change out pee pads for my elderly cat. I also take her to the vet weekly for her kidney disease treatment. She also has a special diet for this. My others are picky eaters and my boy void has to be monitored during meals or he’ll eat everyone’s food. I do their usual care- trim their nails and keep them clean and brushed and make sure they have comfortable spaces to rest or play. I’ll treat your cats and home with the same care I give mine.
“Ellie did an amazing job caring for my animals! She went above and beyond by keeping everything clean, taking care of any messes, and making sure my animals were well loved and cared for. I truly appreciate the time, effort, and love she put into caring for them. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. I highly recommend Ellie to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and attentive to their pets!”
About: I got my first dog 8 years ago and since then have realized how amazing they truly are. I’m here to help busy pet parents! I currently work as a paramedic full on 48 hour shifts, which allows me to have most of the week to take care of pets! I’m very aware and sensitive to each pets needs and will be happy to help with whatever is required for your animals comfort and safety.
About: NEW CLIENTS GET FREE PET PORTRAIT! My approach is centered around you! With every consult, I write my own notes as reference to study before and during my time with your pet. I am a part time artist so I am happy to be a homebody with your furry friend. I also do longer weekend hikes so I am happy to go on a three mile walk with your energetic pal! I am familiar with dog behaviors (whale eye, disengaging during unwanted actions, utilizing a muzzle if necessary at owners request) . I have clicker trained my kitty as well! I am currently working part time working on my children's graphic novel pitch so I have plenty of availability to spend time with your fur baby! I have availability from 9am-10pm. On hotter days I prefer to walk your pups before noon or after 5pm evening so they don't overheat. I would love to meet your pet first before we work together! That way you can let me know of any health or behavioral concerns and your furry friend isn't scared when a stranger shows up! With every consult I like to take my own notes to ensure that I am fully prepared before I see your pet again! I let your pet dictate our interactions. (Holding out my hand for them to sniff, giving space if your kitty has, "airplane ears" or if your dog has a, "whale eye,"). I am also experienced in redirection, if your dog is barking I'll get the tennis ball going.
“Bryant did a fantastic job taking care of our Milo! He was super responsive, sent us lots of pictures and videos, and really took the time to get to know Milo. It’s obvious how great Bryant is with animals and how much he cares about making his jobs a great experience for the pets and owners alike. Thank you for such great service, Bryant!”
About: I am an active individual who enjoys caring for animals! I work as a behavioral health technician so caring for beings is my thing! I would love to care for your pets and make sure they have a clean space, plenty of exercise, and company! I work Sunday-Tuesday 6:30am-7:30pm. I am happy to care for your pets before or after my shifts, but otherwise I am available all day Wednesday-Saturday! Caring for your pets is also caring for you! I believe that respect for your space and wishes comes first! I will ensure that all boundaries you set for your pets and home are honored.
About: Ever since I was little, I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, bunnies, and even a rooster at one point! Ever since I can remember, animals have always held a special place in my heart. I have two sons of my own, and my goal is to care for your fur babies the way I would want someone to care for mine! I just finished working a summer in Alaska, and currently have no winter job lined up, so your fur baby will have all of my undivided attention, and of course they will be showered in love! I have plenty of free time to hangout with your fur baby, and will treat them as if they’re my own while in my care. My goal is for both you and your fur baby to feel comfortable while you’re away. I’m very attentive when it comes to body language, and always do my best to make sure the comfort of my client and or clients fur baby comes first.
About: I have raised dogs, cats and a variety of other animals my whole life. From fostering, to baby sitting to raising pets of my own, I have always loved animals and caring for them. I currently have 3 dogs (ages 3,3 and 5) and 2 cats, one being a senior (ages 10, and 2). I’ve adopted all of my animals from shelters or friends, adopted them at a variety of ages and one of my dogs is disabled (born with only one eye). I am proud to say that I have done my absolute best to give them the proper care and love and attention they deserve, and I think they have been all very happy and well cared for! I am a mainly online university student at UNM, so my schedule is pretty free! I have a very open schedule, especially in mornings and afternoons! I have a large fenced yard that my dogs play in every day. I feed them every morning and afternoon, visit them daily and have them sleep inside every night. I can offer the same schedule to any pet in need of some extra time and love!
“Melissa did a wonderful job watching our cats while we were out of town. She played with them, fed them, brought in my packages and watered my plants 😀 so very grateful!”
“"Kat" B. provided an incredible experience when she took care of my two cats and the house. The cats loved spending time with her, and she followed all the instructions and did extra tasks without being asked. The "Kat" has the special animal magic due to her knowledge and experiences with a diverse population of animals!. I would not hesitate to contact her to take care of your pets. You will be happy with what she can provide for your most important family members. Thank you for all you did Kat, and I look forward to seeing you again.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 160 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Monticello. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
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 Meet & Greet.

- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
