About: I've taken care of cats and dogs for around 8 years. My experience includes tasks such as, walking, feeding, playing, and even administering insulin shots for various cats. Friends and family have trusted and relied on me to keep their pets safe, happy, and healthy while away. Currently I do not have any other employments, so all my time will be devoted to caring for your pets! This allows me schedule to be extremely flexible to fit your pet's needs. I have 1/4th an acre of fenced in yard with plenty of toys and my own dog (Libby, a Saint Bernard) to keep your dog company and entertained. Your pets would have full access to upstairs, entry, and basement levels.
About: I have had dogs as a big part of my life the last few years. I find the pets so rewarding to be around. I love caring and playing with them. Hello, I’m very flexible on scheduling. I work from home so it’s easy for breaks. I have a beautiful fenced in courtyard and a dog park within a 5 minute walk. I am completely off weekends and nights. I have a 10 year old son who loves to play with my god dog and is very gentle with him. I treat pets like anybody else, with kindness and care. I’ve been a mom for 10 years so I’m use to tending to one’s needs
About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was a kid! From walking them to house sitting for my family and parents friends, I love taking care and making pets happy! I’m currently a student athlete but I’m free everyday after 4:30 to take care and show some love and play with your little babies :) I’m free all day on the weekends starting at 10am. I live in an apartment with a big yard and a lot of open space! I’m not doing day care but I’m more than happy to drive to your place or pick up your pets to do whatever you need me to do!

“First time using a sitter for my dog Roxi. Having Dawn help me with her care allowed me to enjoy a wonderful night with my family. I’ll be using her again when the need arises! She’s great ??. Thank you Dawn”

“Our normal cat sitter had a family emergency and canceled our reservations. Meaghan was willing to help us on short notice. She did a fantastic job. We received daily updates and pictures. We had added a bunch of extra chores for her, one of the cats needing medication as such. She even kept up with vacuuming up the tiny bits of food that can tend to be thrown around when the cats eat. We came home to relaxed kitties and a clean house. We intended to contact her first if we ever have the need. Highly recommend!”

About: Caring for animals has always come naturally to me. Pet care is at my core. I have experience caring for dogs and cats with different energy levels and needs, from playful puppies to calm senior pets. I’m patient, attentive, and mindful of each pet’s routine, comfort, and safety. Whether it’s walks, feedings, playtime, or quiet companionship, I make sure every pet feels loved and secure while you’re away. Your pet’s well-being is always my top priority. On days I’m booked to watch your fur baby, that is my ultimate top priority! I will change my schedule to be there for him/her. I have a fenced in yard, and a friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. I also have three cats. I can easily create your dog if needed. I’m fully capable of giving any medication required. When I’m watching your fur baby, I will be available the entire time. Right there, with them.
About: Hello! My name is Alexandra and I've had dogs ever since I was little. I've been the primary care taker of mainly dogs, but I've had cats before. I've worked in pet stores for three years, which has prepared me for a lot of unpredictable situations. An area I am confident in is caring for reactive dogs, as I've cared for them before. I'm also familiar with caring for both puppies and senior dogs. I'd love to help take care of your pet in the best way possible! Currently, my summer is completely open. I'm preparing for law school in the fall and would be happy to continue helping while continuing my education. I take care of my own animals and visit family, but otherwise I'm usually available. I also have a car, so travel is no issue for me. I love playful and energetic dogs and cats as well as laid back ones. Whatever you pet needs, I can adjust to make them happiest. With walks, I'll be able to keep up with whatever training standards are in place to allow for consistency whether it be outside for walks or inside. Tough players or pullers aren't a problem for me, however I'm pretty short and some dogs would potentially be able to overpower me, but I'm always willing to see if it would be a good fit. Anything I can do to ensure your pet is comfortable and safe, I will do.
About: I have 3 large dogs in my household, all of very different personalities. On top of that, friends and family have also relied on me to take care of their pets while they are away as well. Recently, I have taken interest in animal rescue, and have helped rescue and send an injured mallard to the Chicago Bird Collision Monitors. I am currently a student at west aurora highschool, and I am a member of the national honor society. I come home to my three dogs and sometimes go to Oswego to take care of my families pets over there as well. I will be able to regularly check up on your pets and keep them well hydrated and fed. As well as going on walks to stay active.

About: I’ve pet been a pet sitter, babysitter, and dog walker while growing up for numerous years. I have grown up with animals all my life and have helped raised them from a puppy to a senior dog. Now I would love to do you the favor of watching yours. I am currently looking for a job for the summer but I also love animals and want to spend time with them. I’m not always going to be active but I’m going to strive to be active. I have 3 dogs that have a fence in the backyard. They are mostly left out but they are crated when they misbehave. I’m more then happy to crate your puppy if needed.
“I was a litter nervous since I haven’t tried Rover before. I was lucky enough to have Michaela taking care of my pups. She made everything so easy and comfortable for us. My pups love her!! They enjoyed playing together when she came for drop in visit. Will definitely book again in the future! Thanks a ton !”


“Elyse was amazing with our princess cat! Normally family/relatives watch our cat, so we were nervous...but after meeting Elyse, we knew our cat was in excellent hands! Elyse sent pictures & a thoroughly detailed note after each visit — next time we go out of town, I will absolutely be rebooking with Elyse!!”

About: Howdy! I am LeTisha and I am a College Station native. Whoop! For the last 11 years, I have worked at Texas A & M College of Veterinary Medicine. I have experiences and knowledge of most dogs / cats, size and breeds. I currently have a 4 year old Poodle Terrier mix who is the love of my life but I enjoy meeting new animals. I love all pets and would be super excited to care for your loved one. I have been a dog sitter / walker for the past year and really enjoy it. It is exciting getting to see all the sweet pets and helping others out at the same time. I would enjoy meeting your pet! Thank you for the opportunity.

About: Hello, I’m Ayla and I am 19! I am passionate about caring for your pets like they are my own. My whole life I have always had multiple pets. Dogs, reptiles, and fish are just a few! I currently have one dog and a bearded dragon, as my childhood dog recently passed away. He was 16 years old, so I have experience caring for senior pets! I love all pets I meet and their owners can agree with that. I have petsit for neighbors, family members, friends, coworkers, and even old teachers. If there is any situation in which help is needed I will be there. I will treat your dogs with respect and all the love I can give. Regarding my availability, I work during the week in the morning into the early afternoon. However, if your pets need mid-afternoon or evening walks + care I am definitely here to help. My weekends are completely free a majority of the time to hang out with your pups! I am super flexible and able to accommodate as long as you communicate with me:) I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time to spend with your dogs! During the week I should be available any time after 3 pm. On the weekends, I should be available at anytime. I will always keep my availability updated to ensure that I can fulfill your needs. I will not be offering boarding for your dogs in my home. However, I will be sure to be respectful to your homes when caring for your pets. I will never leave any dogs unsupervised because I know how sneaky they can be😂 I will always keep doors and gates closed to ensure your dog’s safety in my care.
About: I've grown up with dogs my entire life and can't imagine a home without them! I’m new to Rover, but because I don't currently have a pet of my own, I have plenty of love, attention, and energy to give to yours. I've been a trusted dog sitter for friends and family for years, and I'm excited to meet even more through Rover! I believe pets are family, and I treat every dog with the same care, patience, and affection I'd want for my own. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, or just some extra company while you're away, I'll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I’ve always found ways to get along with any animal! I don't currently hold a full-time job position, so I'm pretty flexible during the week for my schedule. I have other side jobs and am picking up shifts when I can, but I'm willing to move things around to suit what works best for you and your pet. I am able to host one dog at a time in my home for certain periods of time. I do not have any other animals living in my home, so there would be no interactions with any other dog while in my home. I also have a fenced in backyard so your dog is always in my view and very safe. The rest of my family members are also huge dog lovers, so while I would be the caretaker, your dog is able to experience all the love my home has to offer. I am sure to follow all directions as needed regarding your pet in my house or yours. I'm very detail-oriented and sometimes a perfectionist, so following instructions to ensure your dogs health and safety is something you don't have to worry about with me!
“Erin took such good care of my crew - we have a rabbit, tortoise, 2 cats and fish - she followed the directions I left, petted and loved on our family, and made sure to take great pictures of each pet! I will be definitely booking with her again!”

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 Aurora 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 Aurora 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.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 Aurora with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
