“Hayley was absolutely fantastic! I can’t say enough good things. She was thoughtful, accommodating and professional. She was also very prompt for her all her visits and sent so many great photos. You can tell Hayley loves animals and is a caring soul. I didn’t have to worry about my dog and cat at all because I knew they were being taken care of and loved on. Thank you for the peace of mind Hayley!”
“Rachel was just great!! She followed all of our pet care requests with no issue and was very responsive! She sent pictures of our cats and gave a reassuring update that they are doing well!! We will totally book her again!”
“This is our second time having Katie watch our cats. I am a nervous wreck about leaving them but both times we have used Katie she has made me feel so comfortable and at ease. I have one cat who has been through cancer treatment so I particularly worry about him but Katie made me feel confident that she would be able to recognize if he needed anything and sent me pictures and updates every day. We will absolutely be calling Katie for our next trip.”
About: From my first family dog at 5 to taking care of my grandparents dogs growing up, I have taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. I have easily spent more time with them, than without. I was a friends go to for taking care of their Boston Terrier when they went on vacation in my teenage years, and more recently I have been the same for a carefree Husky and loving Rottie mix during longer family vacations, and soon a pair of awesome sibling Samoyeds. I am currently in an off year for school, so I have the privilege of having open availability. I used to work overnights so I tend to be awake late in the evening, but am not against pet care earlier in the day. I am a very patient and caring person and I understand your relationship with your dog is important. With that said I am willing to accommodate the needs of your pet and you. Whether they need plenty of playtime, affection, or guidance, I am more than excited to provide.
“Ashely came by to do a meet and greet a few days before taking care of Kali which was so helpful for me to show her around the house. She followed all of my instructions and Kali was very happy with her! Will definitely be going back to her as needed☺️🥰”

“Bradlei has been amazing! My dog takes a while to warm up to new people and she’s not only been kind, but patient and understanding to his needs. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking to have their fur babies taken care of without having to worry!”
“I will definitely be using Sylvie for my future needs! Everything went smooth from meet and greet up until the final day. In my past there he always been some issue with dog sitters. Sylvie was quick to respond to request. The next day she came for a meet and greet which my dogs took well to her! I always get nervous with my 150+ lb mastiff but she had no fear of her! Sylvie sent many pictures during each visit to show me they were in good hands! She also went above and beyond for my older dog who sometimes can't hold her potty on the blanket! I HIGHLY recommend Sylvie for your pet needs!!!!”

“Kisha was very attentive and caring for my teenage cat and actively updated me while I was out which was appreciated! She was kind enough to care for my cat on very short notice and was very easy to work with! My cat is usually very jumpy around people, but upon meeting Kisha he was instantly drawn to her. She also gave great advice when I asked about recommendations to make him more comfortable.”
“Samantha watched our 2 cats for a week, this was our first time leaving them this long and she was great with them. She was very communicative with us and active with our cats, sending great pictures. Should we need another sitter, we will definitely rebook.”

I’m attentive, dependable, and willing to go the extra mile to make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for. I’m currently home from college, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to caring for pets. I’m available throughout the week and can be flexible with different schedules and routines.

About: I offer peace of mind through professional experience. Your pets are family. They deserve an expert who understands behavior, medical needs, and safety. I bring over 13 years of professional animal handling to every sit. I will treat your home and pets with ultimate respect. Why Choose Me: 13 Years as an Animal Control Officer: Trained in animal behavior, safety, and emergencies. Senior Dog Specialist: Expert in administering medications, managing mobility issues, and cognitive care. Multi-Species Experience: Extensive background with dogs, cats, and rabbits. Safety First: Certified in emergency handling and reading subtle animal body language. Reliable Updates: Frequent photo, video, and text check-ins during every visit. I am currently at home most of the day, which means your beloved pet will receive constant supervision, love, and attention! Because of my open schedule, I can offer ultimate flexibility—whether that means hosting a fun staycation in my home, coming to yours for multiple daily visits, or doing quick midday 'let outs' while you are at work. I am proud to have a very welcoming pack of my own, including two sweet female miniature dachshunds and a friendly, medium-sized female terrier mix. All three of my girls absolutely love making new friends and are incredibly well-behaved with other dogs. Your pup will instantly feel like part of our family, enjoying non-stop companionship and a safe, joyful environment tailored completely to their daily routine! Your pup will enjoy the ultimate freedom and safety during their stay with me! I have a massive, 6-foot fenced-in yard that offers plenty of room for high-energy zoomies, fetch, and outdoor exploration.

When we are indoors, your dog will enjoy full access to the entire house, meaning they can lounge on the couch, follow me around, and truly treat my home as their own. They will never be restricted to a single room, ensuring they feel relaxed, comfortable, and fully part of the family.
About: I am a huge animal lover and dog lover. I have a 1 year old mini dachshund and I love meeting and spending time with new animal friends. I also previously had a rescue dog for 10 years (RIP Lyla 💔) that had severe anxiety, so I am comfortable interacting with dogs who may be shy or unsure of strangers. I have a velcro dog, so I am used to cuddling and keeping a close eye on fur babies. I am comfortable giving medications if needed and I will give all the hugs and kisses and playtime if that is what they want! Due to my other job I am usually only available on weekends. I may have a weekday available here and there, just keep an eye on my calendar for last minute availability! I do have my own dog at home so I can't do overnight stays or house sitting. I prefer to walk dogs with a harness, as they are more secure and safer for everyone. I also keep a close eye and make sure they don't get into anything they're not supposed to. I practice crate training with my own dog, so if your pup needs to go back into a crate after a visit I can definitely handle that.
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Crest Hill is $20

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 .

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 Crest Hill 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 Crest Hill. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
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.
