About: I have experience with pets of all sizes, ages, and temperaments, including those with special needs or medication requirements. My goal is to provide personalized care that fits your pet’s routine, so they feel comfortable even when you’re not home. As a nursing student, my schedule can be variable, but I have availability early morning, evening, and weekend bookings. I offer pet sitting, drop in visits, walking, and overnight stays, whatever best suits your needs. I’m a dedicated pet lover with 12 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and other furry friends! Whether your pet needs a walk, cuddles, playtime, or just a reliable companion while you’re away, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved.
“I highly recommend Olivia! She is incredibly friendly, reliable, and easy to work with. Communication was excellent from start to finish; she kept me updated regularly and was always quick to respond to any questions or concerns. Most importantly, she was loving, attentive, and genuinely cared for my dogs as if they were her own. It gave great peace of mind knowing they were receiving so much affection, attention, and care while I was away. My dogs were happy, comfortable, and well cared for when I returned. Again I would recommend Olivia to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.”
“Abigail was a blessing while watching our three pups! We have a 14 year old who has some daily medicine and a puppy with separation anxiety and they can be quite the handful. She kept us informed with what was going on daily; it allowed us to enjoy our time away from home while knowing they were in good hands. Cannot thank you enough!”
“Rashel was incredible with my dog and provided timely updates and was quick to response! My dog instantly warmed up to her, which was so wonderful to see! I will definitely use Rashel in the future when I need someone to watch my dog!”
About: I grew up with dogs, cats, and other pets my whole life, so caring for animals comes naturally to me. I have two cats of my own. Ultimately, I’m a passionate animal lover and will treat your fur-baby with all the love and respect they deserve :) I’m currently doing an externship, so I’ll mainly be available Monday-Thursday after 6pm, Fridays, and weekends. I’m also happy to get a quick play session or walk in before my externship if needed! I treat every client's home and pet with the same care and respect I would my own. I follow your pet's routine closely with feeding, walks, litter care, and playtime while making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I'm also mindful of keeping your home tidy and sending updates while you're away. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience so both pets and their owners feel at ease.
About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give each pet. I know pets are family, and I want them to feel comfortable, loved, and cared for when their owners are away. I’m active, responsible, and enjoy keeping pets entertained through walks, play, and enrichment. I’m patient with puppies and new pets who are learning, and I’m gentle with senior pets who need a little extra support. I also prioritize communication and love sending updates so owners can have peace of mind. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities, and I’m comfortable following specific care routines, including administering medications when needed. I’m currently in between jobs, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pups lots of love and attention! I'm available any time on weekdays and some weekends. I am unable to provide care in my own home, however I am happy to provide care in your home where your pet is most comfortable. I understand that pets thrive on consistency, so I will follow their normal routines for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and any special instructions you provide. I will make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while you’re away, and I’ll provide regular updates so you can feel confident they are happy and well cared for.
“Nicholas was great with our dog cooper! He did a meet and greet with us before booking which made me feel a-lot more comfortable about leaving our boy with him for the weekend. Nicholas kept us updated the whole time with pictures and videos! Cooper instantly bonded with Nicholas and well def be booking with him for our next trip.”
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life and have taken care of family and friends’ dogs for over 10 years. I have experience with oral medications. I also speak English and Spanish fluently. I’m a teacher so I work Monday-Friday from 7:00 to 3:00. I can house-sit any day of the week including weekends and I’m completely free in the summer. I like to take care of the dogs before I leave for work by giving them some attention (i.e. cuddles) and taking care of their needs. For exercise, if there’s a fenced yard, I like to play with them outside before feeding them. I try to take them for walks as often as possible.
“Toneshea did such an incredible job taking care of both our baby girl & our home. She stayed in our home for 10 days and sent us the best photos of our girl while we were gone. She went out of her way to ask us if there was anything else that needed to be done around the house while we were gone & left the place clean & tidy for us to come home to. Doodle was well taken care of & received all the pets/cuddles. We are so glad we found Toneshea and will definitely book with her again!”
About: Hi! I’ve taken care of my family and friends dogs for several years! I love cats and dogs and the joy they bring to us humans. I’m currently working from the months of August to May (full-time). I usually have most holidays off. My schedule when I am working is from 5am-4pm. I usually like to go to my clients house and watch animals there. I’m pretty much comfortable as long as there is open communication between us.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Bloomingdale
Lauren is the absolute best! I’ve used her services multiple times for my two pups and she has exceeded my expectations every time. She goes so far out of her way to make sure that my dogs are not just comfortable but that they also get their energy out, get tons of pets and attention, and that they are safe at all times! My dogs can be complicated and reactive, and she is excellent at navigating their reactivity with other dogs! She sends ample updates, photos and communication to give my boyfriend and I peace of mind while away and is extremely responsive. I also have a dog with a finicky tummy and she handles her occasional accidents with such patience and care! I always come home to a house that’s clean and puppies that are happier than ever! (: I’ll continue to book with Lauren for as long as I can, and would highly recommend her to anyone!
We hired Ella to watch our dog Whiskey while we were away on a 7 night cruise, and she truly exceeded every expectation. From the very first meeting, it was clear that Ella has a genuine love for dogs. She immediately connected with Whiskey, who can be a bit reserved with new people, but warmed up to her instantly. Ella was incredibly attentive throughout the entire stay. She made sure Whiskey got plenty of playtime, and cuddles, and even sent us regular updates so we never felt out of the loop. The daily check-ins were such a comfort—every morning and evening we’d receive sweet messages along with adorable photos of Whiskey lounging in the sun, playing with toys, or laying snuggled by her side. It was obvious she was treating him like her own, giving him the love and care we provide at home. We came back to a happy and healthy Whiskey who clearly had a great time. Ella went above and beyond, and we can’t recommend her highly enough. If you’re looking for a trustworthy, loving, and communicative dog sitter in the area, look no further—Ella is the real deal! We’ll definitely be booking her again. ❤️ Thank you, Ella!
Loretta is amazing!!! I was worried how our dogs would do having someone other than family care for them. They warmed up to Loretta immediately and I was able to leave town knowing our dogs were in good hands. Loretta was very friendly, knowledgeable, and patient. I would definitely recommend her.
Emily stayed with our two puppies for five days and four nights. She cared for them almost as much as me and their daddy did. I say almost because no one can give them the same love a pet parent does, lol. She stayed in constant contact with us so we were aware of what was happening throughout the day. We will definitely be requesting Emily's services again! Thank you!!
Abby was amazing! She took care of our two dogs, Archie and Odie, for three nights and gave us daily updates with the cutest photos. Odie is terrified of thunder, and Abby was so kind and patient—she was able to put him at ease, which means the world to us. Highly recommend her and will definitely book again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Bloomingdale
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Bloomingdale on Rover is $42.8 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 4,196 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Bloomingdale. 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 Bloomingdale 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 Bloomingdale 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 Bloomingdale 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.

- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
