About: I like to think I adapt to the cats needs rather than be impatient and try to pet or carry a pet that’s clearly not comfortable with a stranger yet I have my morning free up until 2pm so getting a head start from 6 or 7am is no big deal to me. We can work together if this schedule suits you, My home carries many cat toys and scratch posts. My cats have their water and food in an easily accessible area. No toxic chemicals or plants are in my home
About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my extensive hands-on experience with a wide variety of animals and my ability to provide specialized care. I have a 12-year-old dog that I personally trained and continue to care for through his senior years, managing complications from old age and two ACL tears With dedicated rehab and treatment. In addition to this, I rescued two kittens when they were only two days old, bottle feeding them for months after losing their mother. I’ve also worked on a horse ranch where I trained and rescued horses, and took care of a range of animals, including pigs, goats, cattle, chickens, and more. My experience with hunting dogs and my background in animal rehab rehabilitation further sets me apart, as I understand, the unique needs for each animal, and I’m committed to providing the best care possible. Whether it’s training, senior care, or helping with recovery from injury, I bring compassion, expertise, and a deep love for animals to every sitting experience.

“Sierra took great care of my 2 cats. She took plenty of pictures and kept me informed of their well being. Scribble enjoys interactions with humans and I could see he really appreciated her twice a day visits, following her everywhere and rubbing his cheeks on her. Sierra was always on schedule and the whole experience with her from meet and greet to her last visit was drama free. I'll certainly try to book her again next time I need to leave home without my precious babies! Thanks a lot Sierra.”
“Rebecca is such a sweet, caring, wonderful cat sitter! My cat is very skittish and shy, but Rebecca has put in the time and effort to befriend her and now my cat loves coming out for treats, pets and playtime with her during her visits (which is a miracle!) Rebecca is obviously very well experienced with animals and I feel very confident when my cat's care is in her hands. She also sends the cutest photos from her visits!”
“Michelle is absolutely amazing and does a great job. She has been taken care of Tyson for a very long time. I feel completely comfortable with her in and out of my home when I am not there. Tyson loves her and that is the main thing. She’s respectable of your home and she’s very on-time and professional. Out of all the Rovers I’ve used Michelle is absolutely hands-down my favorite.”

Since I am always home, I can ensure your pet will be well loved here.
“Robert did an amazing job! They sent me photos at each visit of the kitty and any updates. Asked before giving him any new treats. This is the calmest my cat has ever been when I’ve come back from a trip, like “I missed you, but you left me in good hands!” Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!”
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I have been around dogs and cats since I was little. My family currently has a sweet Toy Poodle, and we had cats before. I volunteered at a cat shelter, feeding, playing with and looking after kitties. I truly enjoy spending time with every pet. All my pet‑care services take place in your home. I cannot host pets at my place I can provide pet‑sitting after 5 p.m. from Monday to Friday, and I am available the entire day on weekends. I am flexible to work out a proper visiting schedule for you. I only offer in‑home pet care at your place. No pets are accepted at my home. I will carefully follow your care instructions and keep your pets safe and comfortable in their familiar space
“Stephanie took wonderful care of both my kitties and my home! She communicated each day with photos and notes on how they were doing. She was very attentive to a change in behavior with one of my babies - she made sure to reach out to me, and even my emergency contact just to affirm that everything was OK. I’m extremely appreciative for both the attention and communication, because one of my cats is diabetic and sometimes a small thing is a big thing. Most importantly, my cats love her! They are always happy and well cared for when I return home. Stephanie also kept my house very clean and even changed my sheets for me so I could just return home and go right to bed. Very grateful to have her as a Sitter!”
About: Ever since I was a kid, I’ve just really cherished being around animals, even the ones who aren’t super cuddly. I have a lot of patience and respect for each pet’s personality and comfort level, and I do my best to make them feel safe, happy, and cared for while their people are away. I work full time during the week and try to stay busy on the weekend, but I will absolutely work my weekend schedule around you/your pet’s needs. I have a big fenced backyard and plenty of space inside for house-trained pets to relax, whether that’s on the couch, a comfy chair, or the floor. I share my home with one dog, a terrier mix named Minnie. She’s playful and friendly, but if your dog prefers to keep to themselves, I can easily keep them separated. Older dogs sometimes find her a bit too energetic, while younger pups usually have a great time playing with her.
About: I’ve been around dogs for many years and am comfortable caring for dogs of different breeds, ages, sizes, and personalities. I’m patient, dependable, and attentive, and I always make sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m happy to follow your dog’s normal routine, including walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. I treat every pet like I would my own and make sure they get plenty of attention and affection while you’re away. I’m available for pet care around my nursing schedule, which varies from week to week. Since my workdays change, my availability can be flexible, and I’m happy to coordinate with you in advance to find days and times that work best for your pet’s routine and needs. Caring for your pet in their own home allows them to stay relaxed and stress-free. I strictly follow your instructions to maintain their routine and comfort. Safety is always my priority — I ensure doors and gates are secured and that your pet is never left unattended. I pay close attention to their needs and mood, providing gentle care and companionship. You can trust me to treat your home and pet with the utmost respect and care while you’re away.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Bolingbrook
5 stars all day long. Juliana was great to work with. Loved that she wanted to meet up before and meet the kitties and us and get the layout down before we left town. We were very comfortable letting her in our house. The updates and pictures each visit were comforting and great to know the love and care was extended to our fur babies. Would 100% use her again. I can’t say enough positive things about her. And using the service knowing when she arrived and left was comforting too. Thank you so much!!!
DAWN WAS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING !!! IT WAS SO NICE FOR ME AND MY WIFE TO KNOW THAT DAWN WAS AT OUR HOUSE EVERYDAY FOR AN HOUR WITH OUR 2 CATS, AND THAT THEY HAD COMPANY EVERYDAY ! WE JUST LOVED THE ALL PICTURES, THAT DAWN SENT US EVERDAY. IT WAS SO NICE WAKING UP EVERY MORNING ON OUR VACATION, AND LOOKING AT OUR LITTLE GUCCI AND BABY ELVIS PICTURES FROM THE DAY BEFORE ! DAWN IS VERY TRUSTWORTHY AND VERY HONEST. YOU 'ALL BE HONEST TOO WHEN BOOKING DAWN. TELL HER ALL ABOUT YOUR PETS SPECIAL NEEDS OR ISSUES BEFORE YOU BOOK HER. SHE DESERVES THAT !
Meredith was fantastic! My cat can be very shy, but from all the pictures she took, it’s clear Meredith was able to quickly get her out of her shell and enjoying herself during her visits. Meredith was very reliable and adaptable as well, helping me deal with a prolonged power outage due to heavy storms. I can’t recommend her enough!

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 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.
