“She has her own bedroom at our house. She’s here a lot. Funny thing is we probably wouldn’t even recognize each other at the grocery store. She would sure recognize the dogs, though. Need I say more? Lol.”

About: I have plenty of experience of taking care of dogs, cats and other types of animals we call our babies. I have three cats and a turtle of my own at home. Your pets will be loved and watched as if they were my own and more because I know the fears of leaving them alone with someone new. I currently am employed but I am looking to become a full-time sitter or make a transition into the industry working alongside animals. I have a long time dream to open my own shelter one day. I care for your pets as if they were my own babies. Mainly following all your instructions and guidelines, with a little touch of love. I will always provide photos for proof of life and keep updates if necessary.

About: Hi! I’m Kayla, a former ICU nurse and current CRNA student with a flexible schedule and a genuine love for animals. I know how stressful it can be leaving your pets behind, so my goal is to make sure they’re safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, including my own two cats, and I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions, giving oral medications, and sticking to your pet’s normal routine. Whether that’s walks, playtime, cuddles, feeding, or just keeping them company, I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own. As a healthcare professional, I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and always keep communication a priority. You’ll receive plenty of updates and photos so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pets are in good hands. As a full-time graduate student, I plan my schedule carefully and only accept bookings that I know I can fully commit to. Whether it’s drop-in visits, walks, or overnight stays, I’ll make sure your pet receives the time, attention, and care they deserve. I always prioritize clear communication and will keep you updated throughout each visit. I understand that inviting someone into your home requires trust, and I don’t take that lightly. I’ll always respect your home, carefully follow your pet’s routine and any special instructions, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands.
About: What sets me apart is how much genuine love and care I have for animals. I don’t see pet sitting as just a job—I truly enjoy getting to know each pet and making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I’m very attentive to their individual personalities and needs, and I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own. I work a part-time job with a flexible schedule that changes from week to week. This gives me plenty of time to provide your pets with the attention, love, cuddles, and companionship they deserve. I am a huge animal lover and will always make sure your pets are cared for properly and treated with kindness. I am gentle, patient, and comfortable around all types of animals. Your pet’s safety and well-being will always be my top priority, and I would never intentionally put an animal in harm’s way

“Katy is an absolute gift to the Rover community. Leaving our dog and cat with a non-family member for the first time was nerve-wracking, but Katy immediately put all our anxieties to rest. From the moment she walked in for the meet-and-greet, our pets adored her. Even my normally shy cat—who usually hides from visitors—came right out to greet her. Honestly, it felt like our pets had known her in a past life; that’s how comfortable they were! Katy is reliable, punctual, and goes above and beyond. She asked all the right questions, sent some of the best photos of our pets we’ve ever seen, and even came early and stayed late to make sure our dogs got extra potty breaks. Her detailed updates and genuine kindness made being away so much easier. I almost hesitate to leave this glowing review because I know everyone will want to book her, but she truly deserves it. If you book with Katy, you won’t regret it!”

“Lindsey took such good care of our fur babies and feathered ladies. I have 2 cats, 2 German Shepherds, and 13 chickens and she gave them lots of love and attention while we were gone. We got lots of photos and check ins which put my family at ease! Will definitely be reaching out to Lindsey in the future when we want to go on vacation. 10/10! 💕”

“Gabrielle took great care of our dog and cat while she was house sitting for us. She sent lots of updates, which we appreciated for peace of mind. When we returned home, our house was in excellent condition- probably even cleaner than how we left it! Overall, a great experience having her house sit for us while we were gone.”

About: Hi! I’m Jaelyn (aka Jae the Fur Nanny 🐾) I’m a full-time pet sitter, which means your fur baby gets 24/7 care, attention, and supervision while they’re with me. I’ve been caring for animals since I was 6 years old and have experience with dogs, cats, birds, fish, reptiles, and small animals. From energetic puppies to shy or sensitive pets, I take the time to understand each animal’s personality so they feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely at home. ✨ What you can expect with me: • Full-time care (I’m home most/all of the day) • Flexible routines based on your pet’s needs • Plenty of love, playtime, and attention • A calm, cozy environment where pets can relax • Consistent updates so you always know how your pet is doing I typically allow pets to free roam, but I also have crates available if that’s what your pet is used to or if you prefer it. My goal is to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. 💗 My approach: I treat every pet like family. When your pet stays with me, they’re not just being watched—they’re being cared for, loved, and understood. I’m very responsive and easy to reach, and I’m always happy to answer questions or provide updates. Before booking, I’d love to know about: •Your pet’s personality •Any triggers or special needs •How they do around other animals This information helps me give them the best and safest experience possible ✨ I’m so grateful for the opportunity to care for your pet and would love to meet you both! 🐶💕 I am ALWAYS AVAILABLE 💞 I do this full time so your fur baby will have my care 24/7. I always try to be flexible & I am very easy to reach for the most part. I tend to allow them free range of the apartment but it is up to you as the parent on what you feel is best. If needed I have different crate sizes available if your fur baby feels more comfortable sleeping that way. Otherwise they are allowed to sleep wherever they please.
“Gabrielle did a great job taking care of my old lab, Duke and our house while we were out of town. She contacted me regularly throughout the entire process of hiring her and while she was staying with my fur-baby. I highly recommend her and will call her back for future services if needed.”


“Lily was great! Professional communication, gave us an update and photo while we gone, and left our home tidy. I would definitely recommend and plan to book her service again.”


“Christina was amazing with our kiddos! They absolutely loved her and she sent pictures every day. She was very observant of all three of our animals and noticed when one had an ear ache and updated us on any other possible things to watch out for when we got back. She responds quickly and is not afraid to reach out for questions! We have already rebooked her for our next adventure! Thank you Christina!”
“Bobbie was amazing- dedicated, thorough, and so great with the pets! I have a senior dog and two cats and she immediately put them at ease and sent lots of pictures and updates that reassured me that my babies were in good hands. I’m so grateful for her dedication and care- it’s never easy to be away from my pets, but it’s easier when I know that the person with them truly enjoys them, and Bobbie does. She has a gift, and we’re lucky to have found her!”

“Denise was wonderful with my dogs. I have 3 small dogs who like to have company at home and that’s exactly what she provided. I was able to relax peacefully knowing my babies were safe and home, enjoying themselves. I got lots of updates throughout the weekend including videos and texts. She left the house exactly as she found it and had no issues! I will be inviting Denise back for my next trip!”

“Evie did a great job babysitting our dog! She communicated and sent pictures throughout! We came home and everything was very tidy! Super happy with her services!”

About: I have taken care of neighbors pets in the past, they relied on me to walk and feed their dogs. I have fostered a dog before and I currently own a chihuahua I rescued. I currently work full time Monday-Friday. I am usually available during the week after 3:30-4 pm. Also I usually am available on most weekends at most times. I have a dog who can keep your dogs company and I have a large grass area where I live to take your dogs out for walks or to play outside.
“Kirsten was marvelous! She was happy to meet the girls before we set up the house sitting - I wanted to make sure they weren't too rambunctious. Kirsten was great with them and my dogs were well taken care of while we were away. I will book with her again!”

“Hannah went above and beyond to make sure our fur babies and house were loved and well taken care of. She sent us pictures with updates and did a generally amazing job taking care of our dogs and home. Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for professional care taker.”

“Chelsey was absolutely amazing. We haven’t done in-home sitting before and she made us feel so comfortable and took amazing care of our dog, sending multiple updates daily. Our dog truly looked so happy. Can’t wait to have Chelsey back!!”

FAQs for House Sitting - South Monroe
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 967 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across South Monroe. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred South Monroe walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in South Monroe maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 South Monroe 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.

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.
