“Vanessa was the perfect fit for my two kittens! This was my first time leaving them alone and I’m thankful that they had such a good time with Vanessa! Thank you so much!”
“Caraline is amazing, we were so happy with how she took care of my two cats and are so excited to have her watch them again later this month. She is so patient, always sends photos and updates, follows every care instruction and brings so much peace of mind while traveling or being anxiously away from your pets. Her calm energy and love for animals has even made my extremely timid cat open up and initiate contact and play with her. She left areas cleaner than they were found and was eager to help outside of what was initially asked, including cleaning up cat litter/waste my cats dragged outside of their litter boxes without asking. I definitely recommend her and will be using her as a regular cat sitter!”
“Christopher did an amazing job in taking care of 3 of our pups while we were out of town. The updates during each visit made us so happy! You could tell the dogs love him, too. Very kind and caring, and I 100% recommend booking with Christopher—we sure plan to again! :)”
“Amanda is always so reliable and helpful. She took great care of our cat this trip and brought our cans back up on trash day. We definitely strongly recommend her!”
“Juliana was great! She took great care of Spoke and Pedal. They got good play time and cuddles in addition to thier food and litter scooped! Even our shy boy Spoke loved her!”
“Dawn is a very competent and dedicated pet sitter, a very pleasant person, and considerate about being in someone's home. She was great about sending updates and photos. We will continue to ask her to care for our cat when we're away.”
About: I’m a dependable dog lover with over 10 years of experience caring for dogs. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, giving them plenty of attention, and making sure they feel safe and happy. I currently work part-time, so I offer dog walks around my work schedule. I’m reliable, flexible when possible, and will always communicate if there are any scheduling changes. My goal is to make sure your dog gets a safe, fun, and enjoyable walk every time. Your dog’s safety is my top priority. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, keep your dog leashed unless you request otherwise in a secure area, provide fresh water after walks, and make sure they return home happy and safe.
“Julie did a fabulous job taking care of our two cats with drop in visits! Julie responds very quickly. She sent lots of photos and gave great rover cards with information about each drop in visit. Our cats were well taken care of! We will definitely book again!! Thank you, Julie!”
“Carlen was great! She helped ease our minds by doing meet and greets prior to the booking and was very flexible when we needed to modify plans the day before. Happy our girls were in good hands with her!”
“This was our first experience with Rover and Wade was great! Super communicative and completed the visits exactly as expected. The kids loved getting daily photos of the kittens while we were away, would definitely work with Wade again!”
About: I have a dog that is 6 and have helped raise a litter of 9 Australian shepherds! I also use to work as a delivery driver so im use to driving around. I am in school and work part time so I tend to be free during the week. I like staying in so I am also available in the weekends! I wake up around 8 to feed a special diet to my dog, she is currently in a diet. Then I walk her before I get ready for the day. I tend to walk her at least 2 times a day but I have a pretty lazy dog. If it’s sunny outside she likes to sunbathe in the back or front yard and doesn’t like walking. I do like getting 10k steps in a day so I tend to just steal my friends dogs and walk around with them.

All was in order when I returned home around 4:30. The dogs were let out around 9:30 a.m. and early afternoon. Jess texted just after 5 that she was preparing for the final check in of the day, but I replied that I’d returned home on schedule and the visit wouldn’t be necessary.
We recently moved to Northern Illinois from downstate and were nervous about leaving our older cat overnight. As soon as we met Nicole, those fears vanished. Nicole clearly has a natural gift in working with animals. Our female cat trusted her immediately. Nicole communicated with us appropriately, followed our instructions, and made a new friend in Grace. We had a wonderful weekend away. Thank you, Nicole!

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Bolingbrook on Rover is $24.42 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 12,524 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Bolingbrook. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Bolingbrook stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.

- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
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.
