“We had Faith house sit for us and walk our very excitable golden doodle. Faith was incredibly communicative and took excellent care of our house and pets. Highly recommend!”
“Trina is such a lifesaver. We had a dog sitter lined up who had to bail on us about 12 hrs before we were supposed to leave on our first ever Disney vacation. She responded to my message immediately, was available on short notice and honestly spoiled the heck out of my dog! My dog is a senior citizen and takes 2-4 meds a day. She made sure he got all his meds, followed an intricate feeding schedule, and loved him as her own. She checked in with me daily to assure us he was doing well. She also helped feed our fish and turtle. What a lifesaver! We returned to happy animals and a very clean house. We will definitely be using Trina for all our vacations from here on out!”
“Elizabeth did a great job watching my dogs while I was away. She handled two pretty demanding dogs with ease and communicated proactively throughout to ensure all my concerns were addressed. I can tell my dogs had a great time with her and would highly recommend her to anyone.”
“I couldn’t be more grateful for the care Tanya provided our two dogs! They are two rescues who can be a bit challenging at times, but she was so patient, understanding, and handled them with so much love. It gave me a real peace of mind knowing they were in such capable hands. Highly recommend!”
“Fantastic! Scott was ann absolute lifesaver and helped me when I was In a crunch. He promptly responded to a last minute request . He toolk such good care of my pup Lily, who has separation anxiety. He walked Lily and made her feel comfortable and at ease. My pup was in great hands with Scott, who is an extremely flexible, reliable sitter. Thank you so much, Scott!!”
About: Hello! My name is Samantha, and I’m your next pet caretaker! I’m living in Gurnee, but im willing to go anywhere within 10ish miles of me :) I have a dog at home with my mom and two cats at my apartment, so I’m more than experienced with the level of care and responsibility needed to take care of your furry friends. I was also a house manager for a family in Grayslake for three years in college, which included taking care of their dogs as a part of the family when I was home on break. I can provide safe, quality walks for your furry friends, as well as timely, care filled in-home or backyard playtime, feeding, minor grooming, or quality time. I have my furry friends on the perfect schedule, so I have plenty of time to take care of yours. I’m ready to be your best friend's new best friend :) I’m currently working part time, so I have plenty of time to take care of your dogs or cats. Both walks and drop in available! I currently do not provide care in my home, but I am eager to give your dog a fun and quality walk, or even in home visits for dogs or cats! I’ll make sure they’re having tons of fun while feeling all of the love while their human is away :)
“I’ve used Josh several times now and have always been very happy with how well he takes care of my dog and my home. I have a very sweet but reactive dog and he handles him great! I have peace of mind when I’m away with Josh knowing Diesel and my home are well cared for. This past time my flights home were changing frequently due to weather so I wasn’t sure what time I was going to be home. Josh was very flexible and able to work with me which I truly appreciated. I highly recommend him!!”
About: I have always loved dogs. I've had many dogs growing up and have one of my own for 15 years now. I rescued her when she was only 9 weeks old and she means the world to me. I'm a big softie when it comes to dogs, I absolutely love them and love taking care of them. To keep myself from getting more dogs, I try to find ways to be with them in any kind of way. I've watched numerous friends' dogs in addition to dog sitting on Rover and fostered dogs and I can't get enough of it. Why I love dog sitting: I have had a dog in my life since before I can remember, growing up we always had dogs at the house. When I moved out on my own and finally got a dog of my very own, she has become like my own child. She has been there for me when I have had some of my worst days and some of my best days. I know I’m not the only one to feel this way and I want to be able to be a safe and caring place/person for those that feel the same towards their fur child. I enjoy the experience of caring for a variety of dogs and honestly to get even more cuddles!! About my yard: No back yard, I live in a townhouse. There is a large open grass area less than a 3 minute walk down the block, a dog park about a 5 minute drive away, and I’m surrounded by narrow preserves with endless trails. My experience administering medication As long as I am shown/instructed as to how to administer the medication before hand I would be comfortable with it. I work full-time during the weekdays only and I’m about 20-30 minute drive from my home so I’m close enough to come home during lunch if absolutely needed. I’d care for them as my own. I’ve got cameras throughout the house that I can access at all times during the day to keep an eye if needed. If I’m house sitting for your pet, I’d respect every boundary put in place and encourage the use of indoor cameras to keep you at ease.
About: As a lifelong dog lover, I’ve had the joy of raising two dogs from puppies, giving me firsthand experience with everything from potty training and basic training to the high energy and patience that young dogs require. I have been dog sitting for friends & family in Michigan & Illinois for 3 years now. In my professional life, I’m an Occupational Therapist who works with older adults. I regularly help residents safely care for and enjoy time with their beloved pets, so I’m experienced in recognizing changes in behavior, adapting to individual needs, and providing calm, attentive care. I’m also comfortable with senior dogs who may need a slower pace. Because I’m young and active, I love getting outside for walks, playtime, and adventures that help energetic dogs stay happy and engaged. Whether your pup wants a long walk, a game of fetch, or just lots of cuddles and companionship, I’ll tailor my care to their personality and routine. My goal is to treat every dog as if they were my own, so you can feel confident they’re safe, loved, and having a great time while you’re away! I work a normal 9-5 Monday-Friday. Therefore I prefer to do Friday afternoon-Sunday evening stays! This way I am available 24/7 for the pet. I have a fenced in yard (that is also dig proof). I currently have one very friendly dog who would be eager to any pups companion. My dog is allowed on furniture/in beds. We have a lot of sidewalks & trails within our neighborhood for walks. I have multiple security cameras.
About: I’m a retired professional firefighter. I’ve been caring for our pets, those of family and friends, and referrals for years. As a firefighter, I’m skilled and highly capable at handling any emergencies that could occur to your home in addition to providing the all important attention and care for your beloved furry family members. I retired from the fire service 5 years ago after a lengthy career and can attest to the statement that being a firefighter is the greatest job on earth. I’ve recently completed a major renovation of a unique custom home and have the time and desire to share my love of animals as well as my broad life experiences and skills in providing a special kind of care for your beloved furry friends while being able to handle any and all potential emergencies or inconveniences that could possibly arise. I believe that the best care that can be provided will always be best served in the environment that your pet calls their own home.
“Danya was absolutely amazing! Our specific situation was a bit hectic and we needed someone to watch our dogs for a long weekend and we had only a few days notice which made us uneasy at first. But meeting Danya in person quickly made us more than comfortable and our dogs gravitated to her immediately! Her communication was excellent and her enthusiasm towards the pups! HIGHLY recommend Danya! ❤️”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Beach Park
Trina was incredible with our goldendoodle. He was so well cared for and he was so happy when we got home. The updates were great while we got away for a bit. He had his own wonderful staycation. Trina took wonderful care of our dog and our home was left in perfect condition. Highly recommend
Faith took wonderful care of our dog and home while we were away for a week. She communicated well with us and sent daily pictures and updates. She asked questions to clarify how to help our puppy be more comfortable during storms. We are very happy with the care she provided! She is highly recommended!
Elizabeth was great with my dogs. She’s very attentive and seems to genuinely love caring for them. She’s a very good communicator, proactively sending messages and keeping me informed of my dogs’ activities while she watches them. She even brought them a new toy! I highly recommend her!
Ariana was THE BEST!! I was so nervous leaving my three seniors for the first time, but on initial meet with Ariana I knew I didn’t have a thing to worry about. She kept me updated throughout and sent lots of pics. I had no expectations of any housesitting tasks/cleaning but she went above and beyond having my home tidy. Can’t say it enough, she’s the best !!!

FAQs for House Sitting - Beach Park
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Beach Park on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 3,590 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Beach Park. 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 Beach Park 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 Beach Park 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 Beach Park 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.
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.
