“Carol was extremely helpful in caring for Dante while we were out. She did a great job and gave Dante an excellent level of care that went beyond our expectations!”
“Happy repeat customer! Kassandra is amazing, incredibly responsible, and goes out of her way to do extra tasks that are not required but very much appreciated. My skittish kitties now recognize her, which is a huge relief for my family. We already have her booked for our next trip. Thank you again, Kassandra!”
“Mary has been awesome with my high maintenance kitties. Both get daily medication and sometimes they can be difficult, but she is able to give it to them. Will definitely use again.”
“This was my first time using “Rover” and chose Chelsie after reading her numerous positive reviews. This was a last minute decision and I had Chelsie meet with our daughter at our house since my wife and I were out of state. Chelsie was local and met with our daughter to meet our dogs. Chelsie came over to house for three separate days for 30 mins each day. Chelsie would upload photos and give daily progress reports and upload to the “Rover” for our review. This brought comfort to us and had complete confidence our dogs were in great hands. Chelsie went above and beyond.. We definitely will use Chelsie’s service again in the future. Highly recommend!!”
“So happy Jessica was available to drop in for my Golden Retriever on short notice. She fed and walked her and provided lots of photos throughout. Thanks for caring for Samantha!”
“She did a great job with my dogs Sutton and Chaz for weekend drop-ins! I honestly don’t know how she managed to walk both of them together, because Sutton can be a terrible walker, but I came home to two very happy dogs. Everything was taken care of, and it was such a relief knowing they were in good hands. I’d definitely recommend her!”
“Jodi was the best pet sitter I’ve ever had. She understands dogs incredibly well and went above and beyond, loving my dogs as if they were her own. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in her care. I’ll absolutely be booking Jodi again the next time we’re out of town.”
“Melanie was excellent! She was reliable and kept me up to date on when she was planning to arrive and after she completed her visit. I will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Cristal went above and beyond to care for our 6 cats and help us feel at ease while we were away on a trip. She was immediately in contact with any issues that arose and took care of everything needed and then some. If we could give more than 5 stars we would.”
“Cristina took excellent care of our dog and two cats over a weekend. She communicated after every visit and gave our pets lots of love. I highly recommend Christina as a pet sitter!”
About: Every animal I meet becomes family and will always be treated and loved that way. Volunteered at many shelters to help train and socialize dogs. I am even more familiar with cats and how to care for them! I am a stay at home mom and have open availability if your pet and you are comfortable with your pet around a child. I understand completely the importance of security with animals so if you are unsure or prefer not, I will be fully available fridays- mondays all day, then can workout a schedule on Tuesday - Thursday! I have 4 cats and 2 dogs at home that I have personally and trained and care for daily. Also a 75 gallon fish tank with fish and snails! I have a fenced in yard and all my rooms have baby gates so pets can’t get out of sight! I am reliable and will show up for your pet and their schedule. I have knowledge and daily experience with animals that need medicine or special care.
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: As a firefighter, my entire career is built on safety, reliability, and handling high-stress situations with a calm, focused mind. I bring that exact same dedication to pet care. Whether your dog needs a high-energy workout, your cat prefers a quiet companion, or your pet requires strict medication schedules, you can rest easy knowing they are in highly capable hands. I have experience with our furry friends ranging from puppies with enough energy to power our houses to our senior dogs that need very specific special care instructions throughout the day. Whatever is needed to be provided throughout the day to your family, it will be delivered as if they were my own. Due to my firefighter shift schedule I typically have entire, unbroken days where I am 100% available to dedicate my time and energy to your furry family members. When not on shift there is nothing more I look forward to then spending time with animals. My profession requires a clean background, absolute integrity, and a high level of public trust. You can feel completely secure letting me into your home to care for your furry family members. I treat every member as if they were my own family, ensuring they get plenty of affection, exercise, and routine care no matter how meticulous. Being a professionally trained emergency responder any unexpected situation that arises you can have confidence will be handled in a calm and efficient manner.
“Elena was fantastic! Elena watched our two pets (Guinea Pigs) while we were out of town. Both pets are recent rescues and they both warmed up to Elena right away. We are very pleased. Elena is very friendly, respectful, great communication, and knowledgeable. We had peace of mind knowing out pets where in great hands.”
About: I’ve taken care of my family dog until he passed. He was 16yrs old. I also take care of my sisters dog. He is a Husky/ German Shepard mix. My dog recently passed and I miss walking him. His daily walks were 7am and 6:30pm. I’m also opened to walking your dog on weekends. I have a huge fenced yard and a one floor home to reduce stair climbing for senior dogs. I have a car seat for small dogs and do enjoy taking them on DQ runs with the owners permission.
“Sheila did a fabulous job taking care of my four rather needy cats. She even had to give one of them eyedrop’s and was able to do this. I appreciated her photos and her updates as well as her excellent questions.”
“Oh my goodness, we are so grateful for Grace! We had an out-of-town family emergency, and Grace responded right away, helped us with our first-ever Rover booking, and made us feel that our sweet pup was in great hands. Grace took great care of Lady and took extra time to play and visit with her. We came home to one happy dog!”

Sabrina is absolutely amazing! We've had her watch our 2 dogs and 2 cats twice now and she is so open and easy going. We were worried about our one dog being aggressive toward strangers and she reassured us that she would take things at our pups pace. She is very attentive to our fur babies and understands all of their different personalities and needs.
Cristal took amazing care of our Great Dane. Even on short notice and unconfirmed times leading up to our care dates Cristal provided understanding and great communication. She took some fun photos of our dog when playing. I would highly recommend Cristal for your pet sitting needs!

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

- 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.
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.
