About: I’ve lived with dogs my entire life. Everything from labs, adopted mutts, terriers, vizslas, poodles, goldendoodles, big, medium, and small. I have yet to meet a breed that I can't whisper to. While my profile on Rover is new, I have been walking and house-sitting dogs on the side for years, for neighbors in the area and a small network of family friends I've kept up since middle school. Additionally, I am a serious runner and regularly put in 20-30 miles a week. If you have a Vizsla, Greyhound, Weimaraner, or any other high-energy breed that needs a run to blow off some steam, please reach out! I’d love to take them out with me on the trails. Primarily, I serve the West Suburbs, West Loop, and North Side neighborhoods; I currently reside in the Oak Park area, and attend the UIC campus on Harrison and Halsted. Please note: To ensure the absolute best and safest care for your pup, I do require a quick Meet & Greet before accepting any first-time bookings Looking forward to hearing from you. I am currently in summer school at UIC, and will be in class from 8am to noon on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, so your dog would be alone for about 4 hours on those days. Before I leave, they will get a good walk, and when I'm back they'll spend the rest of the day with me doing homework, tutoring, or getting outside for a walk or run. I always treat every dog like my own. I make sure they are secure, comfortable, get all the pets and treats they need, and are never alone longer than necessary. You will also receive daily updates along the way, so you'll always know how they're doing.

About: I’ve had my oldest dog since I was 5 and my second since i was 7. I have been taking care of them since I was a kid and love meeting new pets! I am currently working part-time only a few days a week so I am available a lot during the week and especially during the weekends. I have a fence in my backyard and gates to block the spaces between so they don’t try to squeeze in between them. I also have a camera in my backyard to check before I take them outside.

About: I have always had animals growing up, both cats and dogs. In more recent years I have helped dog-sit for a few different types of dogs, including a few that needed extra care and needed medication. I am comfortable around all kinds of pets and so happy to help take care of yours! I am a full time freelance photographer, so my schedule is constantly changing. I do typically work odd hours so I’m more available during the typical work week to care for your pet! I have a fenced in yard and plenty of space in my home to accommodate your pet’s needs. I also am comfortable caring for pets in their home if needed.

About: My dog died few months ago. I am not ready to have another dog yet. However, I will love to help people with their dogs. I know how hard could be to coordinate job schedules and spend time with the dog. I do love dogs since I was a child and my family also do. It could be stressful for the dog and owner to be apart for so long. I could help make them feel happy while the owner is out. I am a professional musician and, it was very though for me leaving home for a week and leaving my dog “Lulu”with someone else. I know exactly how hard could be. I do get alone with dogs. I love to go out to the park, walk them around and make them feel good. In fact, I will share pictures and videos while the owner is away.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life. I feel as though lots of people want dogs but don’t care to learn how to properly take care of them so, I go above and beyond to take care of the dogs I am able to take care of within my power. I would like to have a meet and greet before I take on any assignments. I am a TA for Oak Park 97 school district. I love animals; especially dogs. I have a degree in Zoology and seek a career working with animals. I usually am free after 3:30 pm Monday through Friday and have open availability most weekends. I try to respond to messages as soon as possible and will work to accommodate your pets needs as best as I can. I make sure that my client’s pet’s feel safe as possible when they’re with me. While walking, I won’t let the client’s dog interact with other people or dogs because you never know how dogs will react with strangers or other dogs. That is unless the owner gives me permission to do so. If feeding is required I will make sure that the dog gets the appropriate amount of food for their breed or per the owner’s instructions. If need be I will also play with the dog and make sure they get the appropriate amount of exercise that they need.

About: I have a huge animal-less hole in my heart to fill!! I always grew up with a dog and a cat in our home: a German shepherd, Jasmine, then a Welsh terrier, Rex, and kitties Madeline, and Isabel. While I mostly took on the play duties with the pets, I began my pet-sitting journey in elementary school watching my neighbors' cats when they were away and, eventually dogs and cats of my high school friends. Since starting my pet-sitting journey, I have done drop-in visits, dog walking, and house-sitting. I love spending time outdoors, whether at a park, on a walk, or in your backyard! It's important for me to provide gentle love to pets while also abiding by the training they follow. I have cared for up to two animals at a time which is what I feel most comfortable and confident in! I'm not afraid to pull up my sleeves and take care of sh*t (literally!) I loooove taking pictures and will always share pics with your little babies, maybe even a little photo shoot :) I am an entrepreneur growing a Pilates and Wellness business! I have the luxury to create my own schedule and make time for your babies! When visiting someone else's home, I have very high respect for the space I am in. I leave places I have been cleaner than I found them and take care of the home I am in. It’s important to me for your four legged friends to feel safe and comfortable as if you were there all along.

About: Hi my name is Audrey Bruce I am 25 years old and live in Evergreen, CO. To tell you a little bit about myself, I currently live with my parents, they have owned dobermans since I was 6 and currently own 3 as of right now, so I am used to being around big dogs. I have owned a bunny in the past and currently own a cat who is 5 years old. I have watched and walked dogs for neighbors, family and friends many times in the past. They have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets. I am currently looking into being a Veterinary Technician and hope to save up some money so I can look further into starting school and work towards my career. I currently just moved back to Evergreen with my parents from Fort Collins and am looking to make some money in my search of finding a part-time/full-time job. So I am currently 100% free all week long. Where i like to take dogs on walks is around the neighnorhood or even on an easy hiking trail. I try to spend as much time as I can with your fur babies!

Natalia is wonderful, she is incredibly responsive and provides feedback on each visit.

We had a great experience withAaron who did a few weekday drop in visits for us! He was very thorough during the intake and took the time to do a meet-and-greet to make sure it was a good fit for everyone, which we really appreciated. During the drop-in visits, Aaron took our pup to a local dog park (with our permission of course) where she got plenty of exercise and socialization—and had a great time. It gave us a lot of peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. We’d definitely book with Aaron again!

I would give Amber 6 stars if I could! I left my dog Odin and my cat Freija with her. This was the first time either has been with a sitter or away from me for this long. They immediately felt her warm, loving energy and were completely comfortable with her. Amber is consistent and responsive whenever I would reach out for additional information. I can't say enough great things or recommend her more highly. If you're looking for a sitter and worried about finding the right one, look no further!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Cicero

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Cicero on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 12,433 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Cicero. 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 Cicero 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 Cicero 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 Cicero 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 Cicero. 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.
