About: Woof, Meow and Hello Pet Parents! I have wonderful extensive experience taking care of domestic animals, as well as looking after homes which include swimming pools, hot tubs and expansive gardens affording certified wildlife habitats. I am a full-time pet and housesitter currently operating with another pet and housesitting agency. I always have time for another dog or cat walk or sit! I offer a safe, clean, happy and loving environment, wherever I am. I make sure your pets' dishes are clean and full at the right times, with plenty of fresh water. I give dedicated time for walks or potty breaks, whether it is 2, 3 or even 4 a day. And of course, playtime is essential! I watch the animals as they eat and play, taking care of any potential hazards.
“Ru was so amazing! When our previous sitter unfortunately fell through, we requested Ru last minute and she responded right away and was able to help us out! She was so attentive with our little ones and really did a fantastic job with their more complex care. Wish I could give more than five stars we’re truly so grateful Ru was able to help us! We’ll definitely be booking again in the future!”
About: I’ve been dog sitting and walking dogs since I was in high school for neighbors, friends, and even a few of my teachers. I grew up around animals and have always loved spending time with them. At my childhood home we would often watch friends’ dogs while they were away, so caring for pets has been part of my life for a long time. Most of my experience is with dogs, but I’ve also cared for cats and other small pets. I even had a pet bird for a couple of years, so I’ve always enjoyed being around animals of all kinds. I work as a film editor, and Rover is something I do on the side because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and getting outside for walks. It’s a nice way to break up the day and spend time with some great pets. I’m comfortable with drop-ins, walks, feeding, playtime, and making sure pets feel safe and relaxed while their owners are away. I tend to work more with dogs, but I’m happy to help with cats as well depending on the situation. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always try to make visits calm, fun, and stress-free for them. I’m always happy to do a quick meet-and-greet beforehand so your pet can get to know me and we can make sure it’s a good match. I have a flexible schedule and can usually fit pet visits easily into my day. I work as a film editor, so I’m often working from home and can step out for drop-ins, walks, feeding, or playtime. Pet visits are something I enjoy doing to get outside and spend time with animals, so I try to make each visit relaxed and attentive for your pet. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always try to keep things calm and consistent with their usual routine. I’m attentive to instructions for feeding, walks, medications, or anything else your pet needs. I make sure pets feel comfortable while their owners are away and treat every home with respect and care.
“Tomoko was a great pet sitter for my senior cat. She is very kind, generous, and accommodating, and my cat was genuinely cared for while i was away. She sent very detailed updates and took great pictures. I felt so safe that my cat was in her capable hands and I will gladly book her services again next time.”
“Casey is AWESOME!!! She is sweet, kind, has great energy, highly communicative, bonded with the animals very quickly, and is all-around Great! Definitely will have pet-sit again.”
About: I'm a puppy raiser for a service dog agency as well as help keep my daughter's service dog in working condition. Bully breeds to mastiffs to Chihuahuas, I've worked with them all. I'm currently raising my second pup for a service dog agency. I have a soft place in my heart for senior dogs. I'm a special education teacher by trade and walking dogs afternoons/evenings/weekends is the perfect way for me to relax . Pets are my happy place. Pets are our family and should be treated as such, whether it's our energetic cousin or our elderly loved one. They all deserve our love.
“Nathan and Lisa did an excellent job with the cats and went above and beyond helping us with a potential water leak while we were away. We would definitely recommend them!”

My lifelong dedication to dogs drives my commitment to their well-being • Advanced Training Skills: Proficient in prong and e-collar techniques, I specialize in obedience and behavior training for high-drive breeds like my German Shepherd and Belgian Malinois. I use positive reinforcement alongside these tools to ensure clear communication and effective results. • Puppy Training: I’m skilled in puppy socialization, house training, and foundational commands, helping young dogs develop into confident, well-mannered adults. • High-Energy Breed Expertise: My background with working breeds ensures I can meet the physical and mental demands of active dogs through structured walks, games, and enrichment. • Personalized, Reliable Care: I tailor my approach to each dog’s needs and provide detailed updates to keep owners informed.

“Karen was great with my senior boy cat Batman. She sent pictures and updates everyday and I felt at peace knowing that he was doing fine. Karen will be my go-to person if I need a pet sitter for my next trip.”
“Barbara is such a thoughtful care giver for our dog. She always lets us know if he seems like he needs something and she really notices how he's doing when she visits.”
“Raleigh was incredibly kind, reliable and communicative. I am very happy my kitties were able to get quality care while I was on vacation, it gave me such great peace of mind”
About: I grew up with two dogs and have been surrounded by animals all of my life. I volunteer at the Humane Society by taking dogs on walks, training them, and assisting in creating engaging games for them. I am looking to apply to veterinary school in the next few years and I am currently interning at a veterinary clinic. I am constantly gaining knowledge on animal care. My love for animals has always and will always be there and I can promise you I will love your dogs as much as you do (maybe even more ;)) I am currently a college student so when I am back home for breaks: thanksgiving, winter, spring, and summer, I have a ton of availability to take care of your dogs especially during the crazy holiday times! We have a decent sized backyard for your dog to roam and there is a gate to keep them from escaping and a gated pool for safety. They are welcome anywhere in the house! Whatever rules you have, we can follow/enforce as well.
About: I've spent a lot of time around animals and truly enjoy caring for them! My brother has three very different dogs—a Bernedoodle, a Chihuahua mix, and a German Shepherd—so I’ve gotten hands-on experience with a wide range of sizes, personalities, and energy levels. Whether it’s a few hours or a few days, I’ve helped care for them with everything from walks and playtime to feedings and snuggles. I also have an orange cat at home, so I'm very comfortable with feline friends too! I'm patient, gentle, and know how to read pet behavior to make sure they're feeling safe and happy. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or a senior in need of slower care, I’ll treat them like my own. I don’t have a fixed work schedule, which gives me a lot of flexibility! My availability just depends on current bookings, so feel free to reach out—I’m often able to accommodate last-minute or custom requests. I’m happy to work around your pet’s needs and find a time that works best for both of us. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort always come first. I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and preferences so they feel secure and cared for. I’m respectful of your home and make sure your pet has everything they need—from fresh water and meals to playtime and cuddles. I keep a close eye on behavior and energy levels to make sure pets stay safe and happy, and I’m always happy to provide updates so you feel at ease while you’re away. My own orange cat has taught me how important a calm, loving environment is, and I bring that same energy to every pet I care for.
“Brittany was so amazing! She took care of our two cats for 10 days while my roommate and I were out of town. We got daily updates and lots of photos that made us feel so much better leaving the kitties alone.”
About: I’ve had 4+ years of dog walking experience in big cities such as San Francisco. Experience with dog walking, sitting, and boarding. Neighbors have relied on me for their fur baby’s needs for 10+ years! I’m a huge dog lover myself growing up with small to medium size dogs for years. All the dogs have been rescue dogs or adopted from shelters locally. I’m an active RN looking for a fun way to make more money and stay healthy. I am currently working as an RN. I work Monday thru Friday 530 to 230 pm. I know my schedule a month in advance. I am local with transport. I am good at reading body language from my years of experience. I am gentle with puppies, rescue dogs, and elderly dogs. I am able to work with all types of dogs!

Thank you so much Tomo. Losing our dog sitter right before our trip really stressed us out. Thank God we found you to step in on such short notice. Bronson & Penny have a new forever friend in you. The whole family is so grateful for your thoughtful care and positive spirit. Upon our return, Penny & Bronson were happy to see us, but were clearly loved and taken care of in our absence. And thank you for following all of our quirky instructions and being such a great communicator. You are the best!!!!
We give Ru a ten-star rating! She did a wonderful job! She worked beautifully with our 8-year-old, nervous dog. He warmed to her almost immediately knowing she was someone he could trust. Our 30-year-old parrot was well cared for too! Ru was extremely punctual with her daily visits and provided a complete summary of each visit, along with almost a dozen pictures, to calm our nerves in leaving our pets while we travel. We will be calling on Ru each and every time we travel in the future.
I was so impressed with Michelle and Liz. They played with my (very active) cat and I was never worrried for a moment. I felt like my cat was being taken care of by a friend. This was the first time I left my cat alone with ANYONE and I was very nervous about how she would do but I got pictures of her cuddling and playing with Michelle and Liz and I felt so relieved every day. I would definitely use them again. They were a godsend.
Kaylah was so gentle and great towards moomoo! She was cautious not to get too close as he gets anxious and took her time getting go know him. We had a non stressful vacation knowing we were in such great hands. Every report was detailed loaded with a bunch of photos. I would highly recommend booking Kaylah to take care of your precious fur babies!
Wow. I cannot say enough about how wonderful the experience was having Alex look after my 2 kittens. It’s always stressful to be away from pets, but all of the positive reviews I read about Alex turned out to be true. He gave detailed reports of his interactions with my little guys and sent lots of photos. This gave me so much reassurance that all was well. I recommend Alex 100% if you want the very best care for your fur babies.
Barbara is the best sitter! She takes care of my cat Lancelot every time we travel. She gives him a lot of love and affection, and will go far and beyond to take care of unexpected things that happen when you travel (like plumbing issues). Thank you, Barbara!
Ritzwi & Ben were wonderful from start to finish. They were always on time, very communicative, and incredibly kind. When heavy rains caused some minor basement flooding, they went above and beyond to help us manage it, which meant a lot and gave us real peace of mind. Most importantly, they were so sweet and attentive with our cats—clearly thinking about their comfort and happiness, not just checking a box. They made time for play, pets, and genuine care. We’d happily trust them with our home and pets again.
We’re so thankful we found Maria to care for Odin and Loki. She was on time, kept us in the loop, and the boys were clearly happy and relaxed with her. From the first meeting, it was obvious she had a natural way with dogs, and we felt comfortable. She stayed responsive to our questions and made the whole experience stress-free. Truly grateful for her help — we’d happily book with her again and highly recommend her!

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 19,233 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Montrose. 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 Montrose 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 Montrose. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
