“Maria did a wonderful job taking care of Hazel and my two cats. She sent lots of pictures and daily updates, which allowed me to enjoy my vacation and not worry about my pets. Thank you!!”
“Caroline was awesome taking care of our dogs for the first time while we were far away from home for a week! She communicated to let us know how everything was going, and managed both a small elderly, blind and deaf dog, and our young and energetic, (crazy but loving really,) and excitable bigger dog! We’d be happy to use her services again, and we are grateful that she said she would watch our dogs again too!”
“I can't recommend Jed highly enough! He truly saved the day by accepting my booking at the very last minute. He was incredibly accommodating, friendly, and professional. Most importantly, Mazi adored him. I will definitely be booking with him again!”
“Ray is amazing! Any fur baby would be lucky to have her as a sitter. Our senior pup, Ralphie, fell in love with her! She lovingly cared for him and even sent us updates and photos while we were away. She was very professional and we would never hesitate leaving our dog with her again!”

“We can't tell you how amazing Sandy was! She came to our rescue in a dire situation. She went above and beyond on every level from taking care of all of our pets to doing other things we never expected! She was providing updates and pictures for us while we were away and maintained our house as well. Anyone would be extremely lucky to have her care for your animals! She will be our go to whenever we are in need of a sitter in the future! We need more people like Sandy in this world.”
About: I am an avid pet lover and have had many dogs and cats over the past ~30 years. While raising my daughter, we had two cats and two dogs (Shitzu and Lhasa Apso), which we loved dearly. my latest dog Ralphie, passed away a couple of years ago. He unfortunately turned blind when he was just three, so I have extensive experience with senior dogs, and those with disabilities. Currently, I love to pet sit for my daughter’s dog, Scotch, in NY any chance I get. I love taking care of animals during the weekends or on my free time. I’m looking to pet-sit dogs in my home (primarily overnights and weekends). I live alone and don't currently have a pet. Feel free to ask any questions you may have. Pet care fits into my weekly routine perfectly as I work from home a couple times a week, and am available to watch dogs many weekends. I have a 2 bedroom condo with direct access to the outdoors along the golf course. Indoor space is ample for small dogs to run around inside, and my back area and neighborhood are very safe, quiet, and well separated from any main roads.
About: I love animals since I was a little kid. My uncle had a dog that I loved visiting, and my parents would bring me to the zoo to learn about animals. Ever since then, I started taking care of all sorts of pets from dogs, cats, reptiles, fish and small creatures. I work 5 days a week but can still come by early morning and after work to check up on your pets! If its onboarding, please make sure they are ok being left at home with other dogs for a few hours. I have a fenced yard that we let the dogs go out to play. I also have an area for cats if they need somewhere to have peace and quiet away from the dogs.
About: I am very easy going I love cuddling walking and playing with the animals I am constantly petting and grooming and love giving them treats when deserved Its company, its takes away stress, fun, and loving. It's like having another family member in our household. The animal is like a human and is very enjoyable. I am a very honest, friendly, person. It takes a lot for me to get upset. I would take care of the animal like it was my own child.
About: I’m a very active sitter, I love to walk, drive, waltz and run. I may also do a hand-drawn portrait of your dog, in addition to making sure they are very well taken care of. c: I love big dogs and lil angels. Afternoon walks, early and late morning strolls, dinner and late night walks are my peak times. A lot of peaks in the day. Weekends are for the birds though. If in your home, I will make sure they stay in the zone you’d like, are well fed and get plenty of outside time. I used to have a dog with allergies so I will make sure they get any medications if needed. In my home as well, we have three very loving people, big open spaces, a nice neighborhood to play.
About: I’ve had pets ever since I was 9 years old, both cats and dogs, and I’ve always taken pride in making sure that my fur babies are taken care of just as well, if not better, as anyone in my family 😁 I work from home so always have someone here to watch and make sure everyone is well taken care of while staying at my home I have 2 cats to keep your pet company during their stay with me, and I livw with my family so it’s more than just one person here to make sure your pets are safe and happy
“Diane has stayed with our dogs several times and we could not be happier. Diane communicates very well, and we know our dogs are happy and getting wonderful care. I also know they are sad when she leaves! Diane has a big heart, wonderful personality, and her care puts our minds at ease so we can relax and enjoy our time away from home, knowing the pups and home are in the right hands.”
“Liv was absolutely incredible. She stayed at our home with our dog for a full week, and after a meet and greet and a short trial run, we felt completely confident leaving him in her care. Our dog is naturally anxious and takes time to warm up to new people, but Liv was so patient, calm, and understanding with him. Within just a couple of days, he had opened up to her and was back to his normal, happy self, which speaks volumes about her kindness and experience. Throughout the week, Liv kept us consistently updated with plenty of messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We loved being able to stay connected and see how well he was doing. She also took wonderful care of our home and left everything just as clean and tidy as we left it. Liv truly went above and beyond, and we’re so grateful for the care and attention she gave both our dog and our space. We will absolutely be booking her again in the future!”
About: I am a lifelong animal lover. I had dogs as a child and cats as an adult. I will give your pet lots of love and attention. I truly believe that pets are our best friends! They give us unconditional love and great joy! I have worked for a professional dog walking/pet sitting company since 2016 and love it. I am on Rover to offer my services to clients in my neighborhood. I'm currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to keep your fur baby happy. I am available 7 days a week for overnights, dog walks, and in-house visits. When I take care of your pet in your home, I will always make sure that your pet is happy, safe, and comfortable. On overnight visits with dogs, I like to have the dog sleep with me if allowed.
“Sean was an absolute treasure to our girl, Luna. He was very responsive from the get-go and made sure that all of our accommodations were met. I’m not sure that we will ever book with anybody else as Luna adored Sean when we returned. I would give Sean 100/10 stars if I could. I highly recommend entrusting him.”

Ashley is fantastic. We have asked her several times to watch our 3 cats over the years and she is always on it. the cat areas are always clean, she send photos, grabbed a package for us and even rescued a baby bunny that fell down into a window well! As long as she is up for it we will be contacting her again :)
Gianna was reliable, considerate, caring towards our puppy! She left our house as clean as we left it. Everything went smoothly. She really spent quality time with our dog, playing and getting his exercise in. He's been sleeping a lot since we got home. She really tired him out! We feel so much more comfortable getting a weekend away knowing Gianna cared for our dog and house as her own. Highly recommend!! Hoping to book her for future trips!
I was away for 4 days and Kimberly looked after my two dogs, Jake and Daisy. From the very first message her communication was perfect – she replied quickly, asked all the right questions before I left, and sent me daily updates with photos and little notes that made being away so much easier. Seeing Jake and Daisy lounging around the yard with her honestly made my day every time. When I got home, both dogs were calm, happy, and clearly thrilled with their time with Kimberly (Daisy even gave me the cold shoulder for a few minutes because she missed her new best friend!). The house was spotless, their routines were followed to a T, and it was obvious they’d been spoiled with love the entire time.
We had the absolute best experience with Michaela and truly can’t recommend her enough. We were out of town for our wedding, and knowing our two dogs were in such caring, capable hands gave us so much peace of mind. She went above and beyond in every way—taking our dogs on runs to keep them active and happy, sending us frequent pictures and videos so we could stay connected, and even taking the time to vacuum and keep our home clean while we were away. It was such a thoughtful and unexpected touch, especially during such a busy and meaningful time in our lives. It’s clear how much she genuinely cares, not just about pets but about the people they’re helping, too. We came home to two very happy, well-exercised dogs and a spotless house. We are so grateful and would absolutely trust her again without hesitation!

The average cost of House Sitting in Bloomingdale is $37 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $56 per night.

As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 , 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 .
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
