“Mariela was amazing! She dropped by to take care of our dog Kobe and did a fantastic job. She was reliable, caring, and clearly great with dogs and Kobe absolutely loved her. It gave us total peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. We’d happily book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and kind sitter. 🐾”
“Brianna took care of my cats while my fiancée and I were out of town. It’s a bit difficult to find sitters that can administer oral medicine to cats, and Brianna was able to meet the task, give love to my 2 cats and make sure their area was well kept. She responds quickly to texts as well. If you need a cat sitter, I would recommend her to any client!”
About: I bring a lifetime of hands‑on experience with animals, both personally and professionally. I have cared for my own pets and entrusted animals for decades, and I have built my entire career around responsible, observant and compassionate animal care. Available both weekdays and weekends, can do morning, mid-day and evening appointments. Open to multi-day engagements for clients who need some vacation support, as well as consistent daily appointments. I have two cats and two birds, as well as a plethora of fish at home. I give off “chill vibes” and will care for your pet as if they were my own!
“Melanie took wonderful care of Uno! She is reliable, dependable, responsible, and experienced. I felt completely at ease knowing Uno was in her care. She is trustworthy, caring, and kept me updated throughout. I highly recommend Melanie and will definitely book with her again!”
“Liz is amazing! We have a very anxious, crazy dog, and he can be tough to get used to. Liz immediately made us feel at ease working with Todd and made sure he had a friend while we were gone. Liz’s communication is also great - she keeps us updated throughout every visit and ensures we are aware of everything that happens with Todd. We have booked Liz many times before, and we will continue to!”
“Sarah is the very best!!!!!! We loved having her watch our cats and will definitely be booking with her again. She has great cat energy and our two boys love her. We have a litter robot and automatic pet feeder, so we really just wanted someone to check in every couple of days while we were out of the country with no cell service for over a week on our honeymoon. Sarah noticed that one of our cats messed with the feeder machine and it looked like it wasn't dispensing food the right way. Sarah went out of her way to do extra visits to make sure that the cats had food. 10/10, she also helped water my patio garden plants while we were away”
About: I love the quote by Mark Twain: “Find a job you enjoy doing, and you will never have to work a day in your life.” That’s exactly how I feel about pet sitting. I grew up with animals and currently have two cats, Loki and Oreo. I also have experience working with dogs, cats and volunteer with local animal welfare organizations as well as worked with companies in the past. If you’d like to learn more, feel free to reach out! 🐾
“You will not go wrong if you choose Warda. I left my young, shy kitten & came home to her being outgoing, talkative & more playful. Warda is a cat mom & treated my cat as her own. She also found ways to capitalize on the drop-in time for entertainment as it was my cat's time to be left alone without me being there. I know my cat missed me as she hasn't let me out of her sight since my coming home and that warms my heart.”

“I had a wonderful experience with Susanna. She was professional, reliable, and showed genuine care and affection towards my cats. She followed all instructions and went above and beyond to make sure my cats was comfortable and well taken care of. I highly recommend Susanna for anyone in need of a trustworthy and caring person to look after their furry friends.”
“Giselle was hands down the best pet sitter we have ever had. She gave super thorough summaries of each visit, took beautiful photos, and went above and beyond. One of our cats has recently been sick and a bit incontinent, and thus requires extra care, and being able to know she was in good hands was wonderful peace of mind. From administering medication to cleaning up messes and accidents, Giselle handled it all. If you’re looking for someone you can trust to care both for *and* about your fur babies, you absolutely should work with Giselle!”

I have a fenced in yard and 1 friendly dog to keep your pup company! Willing to accommodate to your dogs needs if they differ from how we treat our dog.
“Theresa is a very reliable help for our two large dogs. She comes on time and leaves things clean. We have one rather problematic dog that is fear aggressive (german shepherd) and doesn't get along with other dogs yet Theresa handles them very well. When she checks in on the pups she administered their pills as well, wipes their paws and locks things up. She also follows our instructions as laid out and keeps us posted with pics which we love! Definitely recommend her!”
“Yssis went above and beyond taking care of our cat with special needs. She was responsive and send us cute pictures with every visit. We would highly recommend her as a sitter.”
About: I am a college student looking to help out! I started working with dogs at a very young age. I helped my aunt out taking care of foster dogs and dog sitting. I also worked at a dog bored and play daycare facility. I have dealt with every breed of dog. I have dealt with dogs being the most shy and nervous, to some of the most “aggressive” dogs. I also am very good with puppies, and senior dogs. Dogs have helped me, so I want to help them! I want to help you with your dogs. Leaving your fur baby is hard and stressful, but I hope that I can help ease the stress just a little by assuring u they are in good hands with me! I have 2 dogs of my own and I have been taking care of them since they were puppies. I unfortunately don’t have a fenced in yard but because I don’t it allows me more walks and to be able to take them to the park to play. And I can do the same for your fur baby.
About: I love dogs! I've grown up around dogs all my life. From working dogs to lap dogs, I've dealt and cared for all types! Family in the north west has hunting dogs, while here in chicago my family and I have dog sat for friends numerous times. I've cared for Chihuahuas, collies, labs, mini schnauzers, labridoodles, mini pinchers, and a fair number of mixed breeds. I've had years of experience caring and loving dogs/pets. I've personally had dogs, cats, fish, ferrets, snakes, and rats! I am a huge animal lover. I'm available all day to care for your fur babies and take any necessary means to make sure you get the quality care you and your dog deserve. I'm do any special requirements needed, too!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Elk Grove Village on Rover is $25.59 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 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 cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Elk Grove Village. 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.
