“Tamara dropped in to check on our dog while we were out of town for a week. She came to our home twice a day and sometimes 3 to check on our dog. She was amazing and we felt our pet was well cared for while we were gone. Tamara sent us pictures and videos at every visit. We could tell how much she cared for our dog. I highly recommend her and would not hesitate to hire her again.”
“Zulema takes the best pictures! Loved all the updates and she made sure our kitties were good to go every time she left! I definitely recommend her and will definitely keep booking her for the future!”
About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Having owned and cared for both dogs and cats throughout my life, I’ve developed a deep understanding of their different personalities, routines, and needs. I genuinely enjoy building trust with each pet and creating a positive, stress-free experience for them while their owners are away. Whether your pet loves playtime, long walks, cuddles on the couch, or simply having a calm and caring companion nearby, I’m committed to providing attentive, loving care that helps them feel right at home. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I take that responsibility seriously. As a recent college graduate, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize the pets I care for throughout the day. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, and pet care has always been a natural part of my life. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, play sessions, or evening cuddles, I can provide consistent attention and care while keeping pet owners updated and giving them peace of mind while they’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to make them feel as comfortable and loved as possible by sticking to their usual routine and giving them the attention they need. Whether that means energetic playtime, long walks, lots of cuddles, or simply providing calm companionship, I adapt my care to each pet’s personality and preferences. I make safety a top priority, ensure they have plenty of fresh water, exercise, and enrichment, and keep owners informed with updates and photos throughout their stay or visit. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, and I strive to provide dependable, compassionate care every time.
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and the proud parent of Rudy, my Husky (so yes... I am fluent in 'sass,' expert-level at managing zoomies, and I don't fear a little fur!). For years, I’ve been the 'go-to' pet person for my friends and family. Whether it’s long-term house sitting, popping in for midday care, or offering a safe environment to leave their pets while they travel my inner circle has trusted me with their homes and their best friends for as long as I can remember. In fact, it was their constant encouragement and recommendations that finally led me to join Rover! Because I work from home, I offer a level of flexibility and reliability that's hard to find. I treat every drop-in and walk as the highlight of your pet’s day. I’m not just a visitor; I’m a dedicated caregiver who treats your pet with the same attention to detail and love that you do. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to easily fit pet care into my daily routine. I will be punctual for drop-ins/walks, spend quality time with each pet, and adjust based on your instructions. Trust is the most important part of this relationship. I know it’s a big deal to invite someone into your home, which is why clear communication is my priority. I am a stickler for following instructions—from making sure the door is double-locked to ensuring your pet gets their exact medication dosage. I’m punctual, respectful of your space, and I’m a firm believer that there’s no such thing as 'too many' photo updates! You’ll get detailed check-ins so you can see exactly how happy and safe your best friend is while you're away.
“Thank you, Aimee, for always taking good care of our fur babies when we’re away. We come home to calm, healthy, and happy pets. Our sweet, nervous dog does well in your care. And even though the cats are elusive, you manage to give them what they need!”
“Rebecca is an amazing sitter! She is attentive and thoughtful with my cat. I really appreciate the descriptions she leaves me after her visits. I never have any questions because she is so thorough!”
“Max was very helpful when I booked him last minute. He was on time for all of his visits, took great photos of our elderly dog and was extremely gently and kind. He definitely has a special touch for animals!”
“This is the first time I've looked outside a family member to drop in and feed my two cats while on a short trip, so I was a little nervous about how it would go. I reached out to Daniel because he had other great reviews and had volunteered at a local cat shelter. I can't say enough great things about Daniel. He is responsive, friendly and immediately reached out to make friends with my cats during our pre-trip visit. While I was away, he arrived each day and sent me pictures with updates so I knew he was taking good care of them and they were happy. I highly recommend Daniel if you are looking for someone to care for your dogs or cats and I am grateful to him for the care he gave my kitties!”
About: I volunteered at an animal shelter throughout high school and had two dogs of my own. My first dog, Daisy, was a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. I then fostered and adopted Howie, a Chiweenie, in 2020. Both have since crossed over the Rainbow Bridge, and I miss them every day. I have regularly dog sat for neighbors, friends, and even professors in college. I love all animals of all shapes and sizes and would love to take care of your furry friend! I am in the Chicago area before I move to Iowa at the end of the summer. I don’t have any other commitments and could spend all my time caring for your dogs and/or cats! I am available for a range of services from dog-walking to staying overnight! Whether you just need someone to come check in on your pet a few times a day or need someone to play with them all day long, I’m your girl.
“After having to have an emergency scheduling Stephanie was absolutely fantastic, she was quick to reply, communicative, respectful and very kind. She gave us constant updates on our cat Freyja along with photos. We would happily use her services again.”
“Nastassia did a great job by hanging out with the kitties and providing medication to our senior cat on a specific schedule. The cats were doing great when we came back and I would use her services again!”
About: I’ve had pets my whole life, dogs, cats, ferrets, rats, bearded dragons and ball pythons. I have a lot of experience and can easily take care of your pet or pets. I currently work full time in Burr Ridge from 8 AM to 4 PM. I’m available after work and on the weekends to care for your fur babies. I can easily adjust to your pet or pets schedule. I can take them for walks or hangout with them in a fenced yard. I can stick to your feeding schedule and I can also give medicine if needed.
“Jessica is amazing! She has been doing weekly visits with our high energy lab puppy and has been a life saver. She is very trustworthy, always on time and our puppy loves her!”
“Jessica has taken care of my furry angel on numerous occasions. Each time, I am completely satisfied and grateful of her consistency and attention to detail, and great communication. She is definitely my go-to sitter for my pet sitting needs”
“Estefanía took awesome care of my kitty Moji! She was always on time to the drop-in, sent plenty of photos, and very quickly converted my shy scaredy cat to her usual sweet self. Thanks Estefanía!”
About: I have ample experience dog-sitting, dog walking, and caring for animals. I love learning about dog grooming techniques in my free time. I have experience administering oral medication to dogs, driving with dogs in the vehicle, and basic grooming techniques like bathing, blow-drying, and brushing. This is my summer job, so I have lots of time during the day to care for your pup! I'm available mostly during the weekdays for walks and drop-ins, and some weekends for dog-sitting, so I am a good fit for you if you need someone to take care/check on your dog during the work day. I make sure I work with owners to determine how their dog likes to be walked, as well as what is the safest option for them (harness, prong collar, etc.), and I always uphold what the owners have decided. I am comfortable driving with pets in the car as well. I have experience crating dogs as well, if that is something your pup needs.
“This is our second time having Rebecca help us with our kitties while we’re gone. She does an amazing job with communication and lets us know promptly if anything around the house needs our attention when we get home. All of our cats are happy when we get home and it’s clear that she provided them with awesome care during her drop ins. We will absolutely go to her next time we need care!”
“Kristen has been amazing! She is kind and patient, and has been very reliable. She has been great at taking care of my little Yorkie, taking her for walks and playing with her to burn off some energy! Highly recommend!”

Lexi is amazing! I was fortunate to find her in a last-minute situation, and she enthusiastically took on three drop-in visits with less than 24 hours’ notice. My timid rescue beagle warmed up to her immediately, she followed very specific instructions perfectly, and I will definitely be using her services again!
Tamara dropped in to check on our dog while we were out of town for a week. She came to our home twice a day and sometimes 3 to check on our dog. She was amazing and we felt our pet was well cared for while we were gone. Tamara sent us pictures and videos at every visit. We could tell how much she cared for our dog. I highly recommend her and would not hesitate to hire her again.

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 Brookfield 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.
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 Brookfield 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!
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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Brookfield with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Brookfield. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
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.
