About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 12, I currently have 3 of my own. I have been doing animal behavior and training courses for eight years, and understand the best ways to make a dog feel comfortable and confident. I have worked with puppies all the way to senior dogs. I am also comfortable working with reactive dogs (to an extent). My own dog is reactive, and I know the best methods to keep a dog focused and safe during a high stress event. I will always do my best to keep the routine your animals have, as change can be stressful to them. I am a hybrid student so I am extremely flexible and able to come spend as much time as needed with your pet(s). I can accommodate almost any needs! Making sure a dog is safe is the number one priority. I will always ask your dogs comfort level around strangers, new dogs, cars, squirrels… and so on. This will allow me to tailor my care to ensure your dog gets the best experience possible and you don’t have to worry about anything happening.
“Rebecca was absolutely wonderful! Her communication was clear and precise. He punctuality was awesome. She even altered her visit time to better facilitate our fur babies. Plenty of pictures and awesomely detailed updates. I cannot recommend her enough for your pet sitter needs.”
“Kaitlyn was great, my cats loved her for sure! Would definitively recommend and will book with her in the future if possible! Thank you so much for all your help!!”
About: I have provided consistent dog sitting services throughout 2023, working with repeat clients and building reliable routines with the pets in my care. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, including puppies under one year old and senior dogs, as well as both large and small breeds. I have experience caring for cats. I also have experience caring for: hedgehogs, reptiles, horses, chickens, and ducks. In addition to pet care, I regularly handle house sitting responsibilities such as watering plants, bringing in mail, and maintaining a clean, secure home. I focus on being dependable, attentive, and respectful of both your pets’ needs and your home. I am currently working part time, but my hours at my job are flexible, and can tailor them to fit around my clients’ needs and expectations. I care for pets in their home by following their normal routines, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions provided. I adjust care based on each pet’s age, energy level, and needs. I also keep the home tidy and secure, and can provide updates as requested.
“Amanda was super great! Highly recommend! They came over every day at the scheduled time and made sure Wheezy Cats food and water were topped off and gave him treats and lots of pets. He is super slow to warm up to other people but they got lap cuddles on day 2! Which is an accomplishment, you can tell they are big animal lovers. I was able to add a day on last minute and they also refilled the house humidifiers for me which was really nice of them! I’ll be using them again when I have to be out of town. Thank you for taking such good care of my Cat BFF and my little Betta Fish !!”
“Samantha did an excellent job with my two cats while I was away. She spent a good amount of time playing with them, promptly updated me on any kitty problems that arose, and sent plenty of well taken photos to keep me in the loop. It was very reassuring knowing that my cats were being well taken care of, and the notes left were very insightful. I would most definitely book again! Thank you!”
About: I am a seasoned, responsible, gregarious, fun-loving cat/dog lady with full day availability and weekends to take care of your pet needs like they were my own. I get up with my puppy everyday feed and play a game with then take him on a morning walk. If I run some errands, he is crate trained (by me) and has some quiet time but when I get home, we normally take another walk and play a game in the backyard that requires him to run around. I also take him out multiple times a day for potty breaks. I live on a one-acre property with a fenced in yard. I have a 3 year old Labradoodle (Lincoln) with all his shots and he is very good and well socialized with other animals.

About: I pride myself on being dependable, patient, and attentive to each dog's individual needs. I understand that every dog has a different personality, energy level, and routine, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable and cared for. Whether your dog is energetic and loves long walks or prefers a slower pace and extra reassurance, I'll adapt my care to what works best for them. I've cared for dogs with different temperaments, including one with height anxiety, so I'm comfortable staying calm and adjusting my approach to help dogs feel safe and secure. My time at military college and volunteer work ant Zoos also strengthened my discipline, responsibility, and attention to detail—qualities I bring to every visit. You can count on me to follow your instructions carefully, communicate with you, and treat your pet with the same kindness and respect I'd want for my own. Pet care is already a big part of my daily life. I have three dogs of my own, including two puppies I'm currently raising and training, so I'm used to planning my day around walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and giving them the attention they need. Caring for dogs is something I genuinely enjoy, not just something I fit into my schedule. I'm also a part-time college student, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate quality time to pet care. I make it a priority to be dependable, communicate with owners, and ensure every pet receives the same level of care and attention I'd want for my own dogs. I care for every pet with patience, consistency, and kindness. I know that every dog has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, so I take the time to understand what makes them feel safe and happy. Whether it's going for a walk, playing their favorite game, providing fresh food and water, or simply keeping them company, I make sure they're getting the attention and care they deserve. I follow each owner's instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications (if needed), exercise routines, and any special requests. I also pay close attention to a dog's body language and behavior so I can respond to their needs and help them feel comfortable. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel confident, relaxed, and cared for while you're apart.
“Kyla did a great job with my pups!! When we initially met she was very observant and took notes to ensure the best care for my pups! I was very impressed! She was on time if not early. She stayed in good communication and responded quickly! I loved the pics she took!! Very happy and will be using her again! Thanks so much Kyla!”
About: “Dog fever” doesn’t even begin to cover it — my girlfriend and I are counting down the days until we can bring home a new puppy. I’m the kind of person who can’t pass a dog on the street without stopping to say hello, so you can imagine how excited I get around animals. I’m a private contractor working remotely with a very flexible schedule. I can shift my day to day schedule and adapt to most needs you may have. I am a very attentive person with patience and much affection. I hope to keep your pets routine consistent & stress-free with exercise, playtime, or just extra attention.
“Kelsey was so amazing! It was my first time going on a trip and leaving the kitties with a sitter, she sent so many wonderful pictures and made my anxiety about leaving them go away. I would highly recommend herand will definitely book with her in the future.”
“We are so happy Lenley was available to watch our dogs while we traveled! She took good care of them and sent us pics so we could see how happy they were! We will definitely request her again!”
“Absolutely fantastic! Stefanie kept us updated and sent plenty of pictures. The zoo loved her- she even got our shy kitty to come out for her! Will definitely use again and HIGHLY recommend!!”
About: I've been taking care of dogs for many years and have seen all kinds of breeds and sizes from neighbor's dogs to my own all are welcome! I'm available most weekends all day, and most weekdays mornings and evenings. I have reliable transportation. In addition, I'm very punctual and respectful to your home and pets. I will care for your pets in your home /in your neighborhood. My car is small so I can fit into most parking spaces and can transport small animals in my car if you don't have a dog park nearby.
“Shelby C did a great job, engaging my dog in play and making sure all his needs were met on the drop in visits. Happy my boy was so well taken care of when I couldn't be there”

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 Monument 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 Monument 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 .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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.
To find sitters in Monument with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.

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.
