“Julia was literally a lifesaver! Our original dog sitter had to cancel last minute, which meant we suddenly had to find a new sitter… let’s just say the stress was HIGH!!! 😫 We hopped on Rover and started scrolling through our options, and Julia was one of our top choices. I clicked on her profile, really liked what I saw, and the reviews she had were definitely a plus. I figured it was worth a shot to reach out and see if she happened to be available on such short notice. Within seconds, she responded and said she was available! Instant relief! 🙌🏼 Julia was absolutely wonderful from start to finish. She was very communicative while we were gone, sent us pictures of Luna, and was always quick to respond whenever we reached out. And as an added bonus, we came home to a house that looked exactly the way we left it and a very happy, well-cared-for pup. 🐶❤️ I highly recommend Julia to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their fur babies! We will definitely be booking her again! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Ella was amazing. She took my booking last minute and responded quickly. Ella showed up on time and seemed eager to meet our boys. You can tell Ella genuinely loves animals. Ella made us feel comfortable leaving the boys behind in her care. We came home to happy kids and the house just the way we left it. Ella kept in contact during her stay and sent us pictures and updates often. I would definitely book Ella again! Highly recommended!”

“Polly was absolutely fantastic. She sent us photos and notes everyday which really helped our anxiety leaving him. When we came home we new right away that Chester loved her. She played with him, gave him his medicine, and even bought him a few toys. Exceptional care. This is the first time we used Rover and wish I had found out about it before! We hate leaving him behind when we travel, but knowing that we now have Polly to rely on, it makes is so much better. My only concern is now everyone will want to book her and then she is not available for us. We could not have asked for better care for our gentle giant.”

“Amie is absolutely wonderful. She took great care of our pets. I got regular updates, and I was never worried about them. We were on a long trip overseas so this was a huge relief. Amie treated us, our pets, and our home with respect and left the house clean for us to come home to. Our pets loved her too. I highly recommend, and we will definitely book with Amie again!”

“Morgan is awesome! For a second time she took great care of our pups so we could enjoy the wedding of our other son. Morgan provided regular updates with pictures, took the best care of our pups and even did some light housekeeping for us. Her personality, her obvious love for animals is genuine and we were blessed to be able to book her again, and she will always be our choice.”

About: I have experience taking care of senior dogs, large breed dogs, breeds that have been “deemed aggressive,” small dogs and so on! I currently am mom to a 4 year old boxer pit mix who I rescued from the shelter 2 years ago when he was going to be euthanized for “being too large and taking up space.” It’s safe to say that your large dogs will be safe with me, as they have a special place in my heart! I enjoy the time I spend with every dog I take care of, and I promise to take your furry friend on adventures and I promise to keep them enriched during their time with me! I understand how hard it is to be away from your pet, and knowing they are in good hands and adventuring makes the time away easier. I also have experience with dogs that are more active than others and who need more enrichment than other dogs. I’m a pro at making a frozen Kong, frozen lick mat, or a treat puzzle! I work full-time but maintain a highly structured daily routine centered around my two dogs. I am fully available for walks and drop-in visits during early mornings, evenings, and all day on weekends, ensuring your pet gets dedicated, reliable care. I do not care for pets in my home but I am willing to do drop in visits, walks or even extended stays with my clients pets. I care for every dog as I do my own, and I will strictly follow the rules that the client has laid out for me (for example, if your pet needs to be crated at a certain time, I will ensure that they are crated at that time!)

“Troy did a fantastic job sitting for our Golden Retriever, Dory, while we were away for the weekend. He also took care of feeding the fish in our aquarium and attending to a few household items that went above and beyond what we expected him to do. So glad to have Troy on call through Rover to help with our pet sitting needs.”

About: I pay close attention to each dog’s unique personality and needs — from high-energy adventurers who love long walks to gentle souls who just want cuddles and calm company. You can count on me for dependable communication, updates, and plenty of photos so you always feel connected and at ease. I’m currently working part time as a babysitter so my schedule is quite flexible. Tuesdays are taken up but outside of that I’m very flexible! I have a dog friendly home with an open back yard. All dogs will be leashed at all times whether in your home or mine. Dogs in my home are dog friendly as well!

About: I’ve always believed that pets deserve to feel safe, loved, and comfortable, especially when their people are away. I have years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality and routine. I’m attentive to the little things, whether that’s making sure they get their medication, sticking to their normal schedule, giving them plenty of love and attention, or noticing when something just seems a little off. For me, pet sitting isn’t just a job—it’s making sure you can be away knowing your pets are happy, cared for, and in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly schedule because animals are already a big part of my everyday life. I’m comfortable working around different routines and making sure each pet gets the attention, exercise, and care they need. I plan my schedule ahead of time so I can give the pets I’m caring for the time and attention they deserve rather than making them feel like they’re being squeezed into a busy day. My goal is to make their care feel consistent, calm, and as close to their normal routine as possible. Your pets deserve more than just someone stopping by—they deserve someone who genuinely cares about them. I provide loving, dependable in-home pet care tailored to your pet’s normal routine and individual needs. I’m comfortable caring for dogs and cats of different ages, personalities, and needs, including providing medications and keeping a close eye on their behavior and well-being. During visits, I’ll make sure your pets are fed, have fresh water, get potty breaks and exercise, and receive plenty of attention and affection. I’ll also keep their space clean and give you updates so you can relax knowing they’re happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐾❤️

“Lydia did a really great job watching my dogs! They aren’t easy since one is in his senior years and the other is much younger. She got my old boy his meds and got him fed which isn’t always easy. She walked my dogs daily which I really appreciate! Plenty of pics to check in and she asked questions because I always leave out some detail here or there lol.”

About: I've had dogs for as long as I can remember. My dad used to help help run a rescue for several years, and we had many dogs of varying breeds and ages in our home. I currently have one dog named Alvin who was born in 2022. He is a yellow lab with a lot of energy! I am venturing into the working world, and this is my only role. My availability is wide open and I'm willing to help when needed! I have a small fenced in area under our deck where my dog relieves himself. I go for walks and there is a dog park very close to the house. My dog has extreme crate anxiety, so he isn't created. I am comfortable helping to ensure your pet is created as necessary.

About: I have been a lifelong pet owner and love dogs. I have taken care of lots of dogs. Walking them, feeding them, brushing them, and most of all giving attention and love to them so they do not feel anxious or sad when their family is away. I am currently working very part time and would be available weekends or weekdays and also overnights. To give your dogs the best love and support I have a big yard but it is not fenced in so best to be on a leash at my house. I am also able to crate if need be.

FAQs for House Sitting - Bloomingdale

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 422 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.

<b>Tip:</b> 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 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 Meet & Greet .

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Bloomingdale. On Rover:

  • 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
