I care highly of each and every pet that I see each day. I am capable of medication administration of any way. I work three days a week, so I am able to fully attend to your pets on the days that I am off. I normally care for my own dogs on my days off, so i’d be honored to help those who need the extra care!

About: 👋 I’m Leah, also known as Busy Bee All Animal Sitting Services. 🐝 While you're busy, I keep your pets happy and healthy. Pet sitting is my full-time job and I’m licensed, insured and bonded, and certified with 2 pet professional associations. Check out my Facebook at Busy Bee All Animal Sitting Services for more info. I’ve worked professionally with pets of all breeds, sizes, and energy levels. I have experience with dogs, cats, and exotics - rabbits, rodents, turtles/tortoises, etc. - there is not one I do not love! All pets are awesome and deserve only the best. I'm available 24/7 and in case of emergencies. My schedule is highly flexible. I've even taken care of animals as owners went into labor. If you become a client of mine, you will be notified months in advance if I ever need to go out of town. I provide in your home visits for all animals and dog walks. I do have pets of my own but I am open to discussing overnight visits or short in my home stays for repeat clients. I practice safe handling and walking techniques. I can feed, clean, play and snuggle, and safely administer medication as requested. I provide care just as you would. The animals are what keep me going and I take my work very seriously. It is of utmost importance to me to first have a meet and greet to understand all about your pets and how I will be providing the best services I can. Safety is my number one priority. In the event of a question or a concern during visits, you will always be notified immediately. I pet sit because providing for animals is not only my passion but my lifelong profession. I am in it for the long haul and want to be there for you and your best friends.

About: Hi, I’m a lifelong cat lover and proud cat parent to my adorable Ragdoll of 7 years! Over the years, I’ve cared for cats of all personalities. I’ve also been the trusted go-to sitter for my friends’ furry companions, ensuring they’re always happy, entertained, and loved. Your fur baby will enjoy personalized care and access to my beautiful cat playground, designed with all the climbing, lounging, and scratching fun a cat could dream of! Let me help keep your kitty purring and content while you’re away. As I work from home, I can provide constant care, from keeping feeding schedules on track to engaging in playtime and giving lots of love and attention. I make time for interactive activities to keep pets happy and stimulated, whether it’s playing with toys, grooming, or relaxing in my cozy home with plenty of cat-friendly spaces. Additionally, my husband works from home two days a week, so there’s almost always someone around to ensure your cat feels secure, cared for, and never lonely. Your pet will be in great hands with plenty of affection and attention to their needs! In my home, I create an stress-free, safe, and stimulating environment for your pet. I provide a structured routine with regular feeding times, plenty of play sessions, and cozy spaces for lounging or napping. Your cat will also have access to my purr-fect cat playground, designed for climbing, scratching, and exploring, ensuring they stay happy and active. I pay close attention to their comfort, health, and preferences, so they feel right at home. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow your instructions to maintain your cat’s usual routine. I keep the space tidy, ensure food and water bowls are fresh and clean, and engage in interactive play to keep them entertained. I send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your furry friend is getting the best care possible.

Big or small, quiet or loud, friendly or shy I accept all pets and treat them as if they were my own. I have open availability to take last minute bookings and have the luxury to do this full time.This helps with my ability to work with people’s schedules. Drop in visits and walks are catered to each client. I am flexible with what is provided and have a willingness to adapt. Visits typically include feeding, enrichment activities, and walks.

About: I have been taking care of the pets of friends and family for years, ranging from dog-walking to week-long pet sitting. Experience with a wide range of breeds and ages. I am a substitute teacher with a very flexible schedule, so I can take care of animals pretty much any time during days when I am not subbing. For sitting at other’s’ home, I try and keep the pet’s schedule as close to normal as possible! I prefer sitting in other’s’ homes just to keep things simple for the furry babies.

About: I used to be a farm manager and not only took care of domestic pets, but livestock too! I know everyone says that animals love THEM the most, but pets are really drawn to me. I think it’s because I have a deep reverence for them and their ability to so easily love people unconditionally. I also respect their boundaries because I understand that they cannot communicate as easily as we do. I am currently unemployed and going to school part time so my schedule is very open right now! I enjoy nature, even when weather is inclement, and will be there rain or shine. I will follow whatever instructions you have for your pet! No matter how detailed. I would care for your pet in the same manner I care for my own, which is obsessively. As a former anxious pet owner (sometimes I still am), I will provide photos and updates whenever I am with them. I also respect your privacy, as I know allowing someone into your home can be intimidating.

“Michelle is absolutely amazing and does a great job. She has been taken care of Tyson for a very long time. I feel completely comfortable with her in and out of my home when I am not there. Tyson loves her and that is the main thing. She’s respectable of your home and she’s very on-time and professional. Out of all the Rovers I’ve used Michelle is absolutely hands-down my favorite.”

“Simply put, Anthony was great. This is my first time using a pet sitter and Anthony took the time to answer all of my questions which really put my mind at ease. My Doberman warmed up to Anthony rather quickly which was evident in the terrifuc reports and photos that Anthony provided after each visit. Thank you, Anthony!”

“No doubt about it, I’d pick Kaitlyn to catsit again in a heartbeat. I am so beyond thankful for all of Kaitlyn’s patience, kindness, warmth, and compassion. She bonded with both our cats right off the bat. Our shy male cat warmed up to her very quickly. The anxious girl kitty took a bit longer to come around, but Kaitlyn made sure to go at the pace of the kitty in question. She was able to medicate our male cat, and made sure they both felt loved and cared for while we were away for an extended period of time. She communicated as soon as anything came up, and was very flexible! It was such a relief knowing our cats were in such thoughtful & capable hands for the holidays. My girlfriend and I could not recommend her more highly! 🩵”

About: My experience with pets has been incredibly rewarding. I've taken care of various animals, each with its own personality and needs, which has helped me develop patience and empathy. I always strive to create a safe and loving environment, ensuring that pets feel happy and comfortable when their owners are away. I am available Monday through Sunday! I occasionally babysit, otherwise I am usually free to watch / walk / check up / take care of your pet(s)! When caring for pets in my home or my client's home, I prioritize safety, trust, and a nurturing environment. I ensure that the space is secure and free from hazards, provide consistent and loving care, and maintain open communication with pet owners to build trust. This way, pets feel comfortable and well-cared for in any setting.

About: I've taken care of dogs both large and small. I've owned a small dog of my own for 13 years and am able to care for senior dogs with medication requirements. I regularly sit my sisters 2 very high energy dogs and will go for multiple walks a day. I have a 2 year old shih tzu who is the friendliest pup and gets along with almost all dogs! Im currently working part time, short shifts at a salon but am able to come home to take care of dogs. I also have a camera setup to be able to check in and get alerts when there’s movement. While visiting your home, Im always respectful of the rules you have set for your dog(s), as well as those set for myself. I prefer to keep a closer eye on dogs inside if they have a tendency of getting into things not meant for them. I love to be outside as well, so many walks, trips to dog parks or just playtime in the back yard will be a priority on my list when caring for your pet(s).

About: I have been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. My whole life I have had dogs in the house, and the whole neighborhood knows to come to me when they need someone to watch their fur babies. I have a puppy of my own, he is a 7 month old long haired dachshund named pretzel. I am currently working part-time so I have lots of free time to fit pet care in. I am a former college athlete so I love to exercise, so I would love to spend my free time walking with some fur babies. I do not have a fence, but I do have a chain for the backyard. I have a dog of my own to keep your fur baby company who absolutely adores other dogs. Since my yard is not fenced I like to take my dog on lots of walks to get his exercise and enrichment in.

“This is our first time using Amie. She was AWESOME! She watched our cats, stopping by twice a day for a week. She was diligent about food and water, cleaning litter boxes, and sending photos. More importantly, she took the time to visit and play with Artie (Bert hides). She got on the floor and talked to Artie. She's got my vote. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.”

About: Hi, my name is Megan and I'm a huge dog-lover! I actually just resigned from my full-time position, so I will have pretty open availability for a while. I don't have any professional dog-sitting experience, but I am very caring and love dogs. I am also very reliable and have my own vehicle. I have volunteered a lot of hours at Animal Welfare as well, where I took care of both well and sick animals (mainly dogs). I tend to be the go-to for family and friends who need someone to watch their dogs, because they know how well I treat their animals and how much I enjoy it! Let me take your pup off your hands :)

Katharine has been great with our baby boy, Opie. Opie can be reactive and takes time to warm up to people but he loves when she comes over his walks and his treat time. I love the pictures she sends and she is so easy to communicate with!

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Crest Hill

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Crest Hill is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $37 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 3,649 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Crest Hill. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

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 Crest Hill 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 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 Meet & Greet.

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 Crest Hill 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 Crest Hill. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% 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.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
