“Same as last time, Jayme went above and beyond to make sure my cat, Cheddar, was taken care of and loved on! I appreciate so much that Jayme is super communicative and extremely thoughtful. Does a great job giving Cheddar his medicine, and I feel so comfortable knowing my boy is in safe hands.”
“Melanie was wonderful! She made sure our cats were fed and played with while we were out of town for the holidays. We really appreciated how attentive she was to our fur babies! Thank you so much”
“Great drop-in visit! Our pup was well cared for, and it was such a relief knowing she was in good hands while we were away. We loved receiving the updates and photos. Thank you for taking such great care of her—we’d definitely book again!”
About: I have always been a cat lover ever since I was little. I have 7+ years of experience personally taking care of cats of all breeds, personalities, and ages. I previously volunteered at the Bolingbrook Animal Shelter, where I provided personalized care and followed the individual routines of cats and kittens. I respect every cat’s boundaries, personality, and comfort level while giving them plenty of love and attention. I can follow your pet’s specific routine, feeding schedule, medications, and care instructions. I also have a pet-friendly space where your furry baby can relax, feel safe, and get comfortable while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally in my routine, and I enjoy making time for animals. I am available of Fridays, Saturday and Sunday for pet sitting and my schedule allows me to provide consistent care, playtime, feeding and attention based of each cats needs. I'm happy to work around their routine and make sure they receive plenty of love and companionship while their owners are away. Since I provide care in my home, I focus on creating a safe clean, and comfortable environment where you cat can feel at home. I thoroughly sanitize food, water bowls, and litter boxes between stays and follow feeding, treat, medication, and care instructions that you provide. I don't have pets of my own so your cat won't have to adjust to other animals or compete for attention. Your cat will be welcome to explore the house and if they prefer privacy, I can provide a separate, comfortable space for them to relax. Safety is my top priority. Doors and windows will remain securely closed and all windows have screens. I'll also need an emergency veterinarians contact information on hand in case it is ever needed. I'll provide toys and plenty of attention while respecting your cats' personality and boundaries. I will also share pictures and moments of their stay with you while you are away. I'm happy to maintain their usual routine and provide the food and treats you provide so that they can stick to what they're already comfortable with. My goal is for your cat to feel safe, relaxed, and loved while you are away
“Amanda was excellent once again. We had to travel rather suddenly and were able to schedule a last-minute set of visits with Amanda. She takes great care of our boys and our home and always keeps us up to date on everything including packages that have arrived. It's such a delight to not have to worry about our cats while we're away. We will continue to book Amanda for all our future trips.”
“Jess always leaves plenty of photos and writes up plenty of detail of how the kitties are doing, how a picky eater did, etc. the girls genuinely seem to like her and interact with her. A real gem of a find”
About: I recently graduated from Northern Michigan University this past spring with a bachelors degree in Education. Before pursuing my career, I am taking time off to work and spend time with family. I am a lover of all animals, though I have the most experience with cats and dogs of all ages and sizes. Over the past 8 years, I have worked with several families for drop by visits and extended stays while they travel. I have a fur baby of my own, my cat Ringo, who I love very much. I have several references available for back ground check and to hear from prior families I have worked with for feedback if desired! I would love to work with you and your pets! I have a pretty open schedule! I work 1-2 shifts a week of retail for roughly 4 hours per shift. I can do overnights, extended stays, multiple visits per day, and so on. I’m flexible to your needs! When caretaking for you animal, I’ll be more than ready to follow your expectations. I have a list of references available from prior families I’ve worked with in the past that I am more than welcome to share with you. At any point, feel free to contact me via call or text if you have questions or concerns about the wellbeing of your animal.
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 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: I’ve cared for dogs for over 10 years, helping friends, family, and neighbors with their pets. I’m choosing to offer pet sitting as a source of income, but it’s also something I genuinely love doing. I travel fairly often, so having a dog of my own isn’t the right fit for me right now. Spending time with other people’s dogs brings me a lot of joy, and I’ll give yours the affection, attention, and care they deserve.❤️ My schedule is flexible, so I can make time for walks, playtime, and keeping your pet company. I do travel occasionally, but I keep my availability up to date and only accept bookings when I can give your pet the attention they need. I’ll follow your pet’s usual routine and any instructions you leave for feeding, walks, and care. In your home, I’ll respect your space, keep doors and gates secure, and send updates so you know how your pet is doing.
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.
About: I have been caring for dogs since I was young, though never as an official job, mostly for family and friends. I grew up surrounded by animals, including many dogs, cats, and even farm animals. Currently, I have an older Border Collie and a Chihuahua, and they make my days so much better! I love going on daily walks with dogs and playing fetch with them in the backyard. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel loved, happy, and well cared for. I’m currently not working, so I spend a lot of time at home and have plenty of flexibility to care for your dog. I’m happy to adapt to your pet’s usual routine and make sure they feel comfortable and at home. Typically, the first thing I do in the morning is let the dogs outside to go potty, followed by breakfast. I also enjoy going for walks during the morning and again in the afternoon, so your dog can get plenty of exercise, fresh air, and attention throughout the day. i have a fenced yard and 2 trained dogs to keep your baby with company. I have a large crate at home, which I normally only use for my Border Collie during thunderstorms, as it helps him feel safe. However, if you feel that it would be best to separate the dogs at any point, I have the space and can safely accommodate one of them in the crate if needed.
“Gina was such an awesome care taker to my shy little guy. She updated throughout the day and was super punctual. I would definitely recommend! Thank you Gina 🐈🫶🏾”
About: I have loved animals since childhood, and when I was a child I had a cat. I also lived with my boyfriend's family for a year, they had a dog and I took care of Him. Now periodically my friends leave their dogs with me when they go on a trip or on a business trip. I love this expression: "Dogs talk, but only to those who can listen." I work online so I have a lot of time to play and take care of your dogs. The second part of the day is more freely , but I have a flexible schedule and can combine work and pet care. I have a large one-room apartment with plenty of space for a dog. Near the house there is a large area outside for walking, a few minutes away there is a large park with a lake. I walk the dog several times a day, feed it on schedule, and play with the cats' and dogs' favorite toys.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Clarendon Hills
Sam helped me out when I went out of town for 5 days and watched my two bunnies for me! She was great very friendly, had no issues and she listened to my request and sent me updates of how my bunnies were doing, she gave me reassurance and she gained my trust and would definitely be booking her again in the future!
It was my first time using Rover and it definitely will not be the last. My pet sitter Jayme was absolutely amazing. She was incredibly organized, punctual, and showed such care and love to Sterling and Silver. Jayme always had a thoughtful recap message, took great pictures, and made my cats feel special and comfortable despite my absence. I am a big fan of Rover because of JAYME! Scott Young
Megan is the best! She has watched our two dogs, two cats and leopard gecko multiple times. She is super reliable, very communicative, and just a delight with the animals. My only hesitation in writing this review is that she will book up and won’t be available for our numerous last minute requests!

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 .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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 .
