“Candace was great with Remy and gave us peace of mind while we were out for the evening. She was friendly, reliable, and communicated well throughout the visit. It was clear that she genuinely cared about Remy and made sure he was comfortable and well taken care of. We came home to a happy pup, and everything was exactly as expected. We'd definitely book with Candace again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter.”
“Kirsten was great with our senior dog Andy. He has a few medical issues and Kirsten was caring and empathetic with him. He was happy and content with her and after we came home. I highly recommend Kirsten and will book with her again. She is booked to watch our pups in August.”
“We are so grateful Kaeley was able to stop by for drop-in visits for our time away from home, especially as we had to book last-minute. She came and did a quick meet and greet and was wonderful with our dog, Nala. Kaeley communicated consistently, sent lots of pics and even a video of a new trick she taught Nala. We highly recommend her!”
“Adriana was a huge help to me in a last minute request. She was great with the pets and it was clear they were comfortable with her from the pics she sent me. Thanks so much!”
“Anne has taken care of our two cats multiple times and will continue to long into the future, I hope! We never have to worry about our two cats (or our house) while we are gone. Anne is dependable and cares for our baby girls as if they were her own!”
“Crystal went above and beyond with our cat Misty! She even trimmed her claws without me even asking. Most importantly, she played and talked to her and didn’t just spend time on a phone. I’m DEFINITELY calling her again!”
“Jen was wonderful attending to my dog's needs twice a day while I was on vacation. She sent me pictures and gave me updates with every visit! I'll definitely rebook her again, if she's available!”

“Baxter needs a lot of special care and is very shy but he warmed right up to Meghanne which says a lot! I was very comfortable knowing he was being well looked after while I had to be away.”
“Alison and Robert did a wonderful job pet sitting my five kitties. They are definitely pet people- my kitties felt comfortable around them right away. They were incredibly thorough, followed all of our specific instructions, and were able to successfully give my cat her heart failure medication too. I highly recommend Alison and Robert and will definitely use their services again in the future!”
“This was our second time booking Kilie for our two finicky cats. She was totally on top of things, and everything went perfectly smoothly. Having someone we can trust, and who’s so easy to work with, makes us feel much more comfortable traveling away from home, even just for a day or two. Thanks again, Kilie! We’ll be booking again soon!”
“Amanda is an amazing person who loves animals and works hard to exceed the needs of her customers. She is very resonsive, communicates very well and leaves nothing to chance. She took wonderful care of my goldendoodle. I highly recommend Amanda to sit your pet.”

Jenny did a wonderful job watching our cat while we were away. Jenny was patient, hard working, and went above and beyond to provide updates and keep Boots comfortable while we were away. We would highly recommend her and she will be the first person we contact for this service!
Kirsten was amazing. She was professional and very caring toward Monkie. Kirsten was an excellent communicator and kept me informed on a daily basis of how Monkie was doing along with many visuals. I am so happy I found her via Rover. I did not worry at all about Monkie knowing he was in good hands. I would not hesitate to hire her again to look after our very much loved kitty cat. I highly recommend her for others who are looking for pet services. She is outstanding!
Just finished another booking with Jen, and she continues to be fantastic. She's helped us on multiple occasions, this time on short notice, and has always been reliable, professional, and polite. It's such a relief knowing our pup in good hands whenever we're away. At this point, she's become our go-to sitter whenever she's available. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable, caring, and easy to work with. Thanks again, Jen!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Cicero on Rover is $22.2 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 592 sitters on Rover offering Pet 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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Cicero. On Rover:
- 97% 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.
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.
