“Tara is outstanding! She goes above & beyond. Tara is very kind to my dogs & treats them like her own babies. I can tell they were so happy and well taken care of. My dogs love her & we appreciate the comfort & walks she provided to them.”
“Karen is ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC! She took care of our cats while we were away for about 2 weeks. Our cats are elderly and are not the easiest to deal with, Karen was attentive to their special needs and just went out of her way to ensure they were comfortable and well taken care of. I would highly recommend her for your pet care needs. We travel often and will use her again and again”
About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up surrounded by dogs of all sizes and breeds, from a beloved Cocker Spaniel to two Giant Schnauzers and later a Pit Bull. Each one helped shape my love and understanding of animals and taught me how unique every pet’s personality can be. Today, I’m the proud owner of a French Bulldog who keeps me on my toes and a pet snake, giving me experience caring for both traditional and exotic pets. I’ve also spent time around cats through friends and family and am comfortable caring for feline companions as well. While attending Ball State University, I volunteered at local animal shelters, helping care for animals and supporting their daily needs. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, playful, or senior, I understand the importance of providing patience, attention, and loving care. I treat every animal as if they were my own and strive to make them feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Pet care is already a part of my daily routine, as I currently care for my own pets and understand the importance of consistency, attention, and reliability. I work as a State Farm agent in Chicago’s West Loop, and because it is a family-owned business that my family manages and operates daily, I have some flexibility within my schedule when needed. During the week, I am available for pet care before work, after work, and during my lunch break. Depending on the day and my workload, I may also have additional flexibility to accommodate specific care needs. On weekends, I typically have more availability and can provide extra time and attention for walks, drop-in visits, overnight care, and companionship. I am careful not to overbook myself because I believe every pet deserves quality care and attention. When I accept a booking, you can trust that I have the time and availability to provide dependable, attentive care and ensure your pet remains safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. At this time, I’m unable to offer boarding services in my home due to my own pets. However, I am happy to provide a variety of other services, including drop-in visits, dog walking, overnight stays, and personalized in-home pet care. My goal is to ensure your pets remain comfortable in their familiar environment while receiving the attention, companionship, and care they deserve. Whether your pet needs playtime, feeding, medication administration, exercise, or simply a reassuring presence while you’re away, I am committed to providing safe, reliable, and compassionate care tailored to their needs.
“Jayden is an excellent pet sitter and communicator. I loved the updates, photos and videos. They stayed overnight and took care of 4 needy cats. I highly recommend!”
“Kathryn was so wonderful! She took great care of our senior cat with special needs, and our rowdy, energetic young beagle mix. She kept in touch every day, and sent lots of photos. Our house can get a little messy with my cats litter boxes, plus he's a bit incontinent. But we returned home to an immaculate house, with very happy fur babies. We're so grateful, and will definately book Kathryn again! 100%”
About: I have owned dogs and cats since I was a small child. I have two kids of my own ages 10 and 13, who are also animal lovers! We are a busy family that can’t commit to having a pet full time at this moment but would love to have cats and dogs in the home when we can! I currently work part time, so I have 2 full days off during the week and weekends to help out with dog walking and pet sitting/boarding. I can come to you or you can choose to bring your pets to me if that works out. I can also drop in after work days at night if needed after 430pm. I can offer dog walking and companionship as well as car rides if your pup likes those! Really just depends on what you and your pet need and I can make it happen. I have a safe home with a nice Fenced in yard and we live across the street from a large park where they can play!
About: I have cared for my dog, Comet for the past 8 years. In addition, I have also cared for about 5 families of pets for a total of 6 dogs, 2 cats, 2 guinea pigs, 1 turtle and 1 axolotl. I am willing to put as much dedication to those I watch after or walk as is requested and am very good, thorough and thoughtful at following directions and taking care of all animals. I do have a part time job in Naperville, so I am available on the days I work before 7 and after 6. Whichever times work the best for the client is what I will abide to. I will treat your home and pets with the utmost care and consideration. I will follow your pets care instructions exactly as you would like.
About: I’ve been caring for animals since grammar school and have always had a deep appreciation for the role pets play in a family. Over the years I’ve lived in multi-pet households — at one point sharing a home with three dogs and four cats — and I’ve personally had three cats of my own. Our family Doberman passed a few years ago, and while we currently don’t have pets of our own, that has opened the door for us to provide a loving space for yours. For the past two years, I’ve proudly been a Rover sitter and have maintained a 5-star rating by treating every pet like part of the family. Our home offers a calm, family-style environment where dogs are included in daily life — not isolated or treated like they’re in a facility. Because of this, we focus on caring for well-behaved dogs who are comfortable in a home setting and respectful of their surroundings. Dogs that require constant separation due to behavioral issues are often better suited for kennel-style care. Our goal is to create a safe, relaxed environment where dogs who thrive in a family atmosphere can feel at home. If your dog enjoys being part of the pack and settling into a warm, structured household — we’d love to welcome them. I currently work part time in the music industry and real-estate. I have flexible days to offer for your pets. My wife and daughter are also very good with pets. In a way, you get 3 care givers for the price of one! I have a spacious backyard that has a secure 6 foot wooden fence all the way around the property. My family and I currently do not have pets besides our fish, Blueberry, so all our attention can be focused on your loved one.

“Alexa did a wonderful job taking care of our dog in our home over a long holiday weekend. She was communicative, made sure Beau got his walks and play time, left our home clean and our dog happy. She followed our instructions on everything and asked questions when she wasn’t sure about something. We hope our dog wasn’t too crazy for her, but we would gladly welcome her back! So grateful we found Alexa.”
About: I’ve grown up around animals and truly love spending time with them. I had a German Shepherd named Sheba and two cats, Pichu and Mitzu, and I’ve also cared for friends’ pets. Through Rover, I’ve walked and cared for pets of a wide range of ages. I’m experienced with walking, feeding, bathing, and giving pets the attention and care they need to feel comfortable and happy. I work remotely and thus have a flexible schedule when it comes to pet care. I am happy to accommodate the needs of my clients. In my client’s home I am happy to abide by any and all rules specified by the client, and ensure that their pet is happy!
About: I’ve always had a natural connection with animals, especially dogs, and finally welcomed my own pup, Leia, into my life five years ago. Since then, I’ve handled all of her training, walks, feeding schedule, etc., myself. I learned a lot from years of watching "It’s Me or the Dog," and put what I've learned into practice with my dog, Leia. What sets me apart is my mix of genuine love for dogs, hands‑on training experience, and a calm, reliable presence. I’m excited to meet your pup and give them a walk they’ll remember; one that’s safe, stimulating, and tailored to their personality. I am a college student at DePaul University, majoring in Finance and Criminology. I commute on Tuesdays and Thursdays, so I am free to walk your furry friend any day that isn't Tuesday or Thursday :) I have one energetic five-year-old Wheaton terrier whom I have trained by myself. I walk her at least once a day, feed her, play with her, and train her when time allows. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow your established rules and routines to ensure your dog feels comfortable and stress‑free. I pay close attention to safety — from securely leashing during walks to double‑checking doors, gates, and feeding instructions. My goal is to treat your pet and your home with the same care and respect I give my own.
“Alexis was an excellent dog sitter. She played with Nellie and gave her long walks every day that she watched her. She also provided regular and helpful updates with pictures and descriptions. I would trust her to watch my pets anytime!”
“Sara did a great job making my two cats and a dog feel safe and loved in our absence. She did everything we asked of her and more. Thank you, Sara, for easing our worries about leaving our animals!”
“Janet did an amazing job taking care of my dog, Max! She made sure he got plenty of long walks, kept me updated with great communication, and gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that she genuinely cared about him and treated him like her own. I highly recommend Janet to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter, and I will definitely be booking her again the next time I need someone to take care of Max!”
“Rowan was excellent with my husky! He came over to meet her and familiarize himself with her routine, and he was very great with communicating his schedule and giving me updates on my dog. Would highly recommend Rowan!”

I waited four months to meet Karen as she was out of town and I was considering booking her for an upcoming date. I am glad I waited that long, as she was well worth the wait. Besides taking care of my dog Charlie, she also fed my two parakeets and watered my flowers outside. Hundreds of them. Charlie is still looking for her and runs to the door whenever I say her name. It looks like he was glad I waited 4 months so we could meet her, too!
Excellent pet sitter. Haley took care of 4 cats with different needs and personalities. She kept me updated with messages and photos which gave me great peace of mind so I could truly relax on my vacation. We arrived home after a long trip to 4 very well cared for cats. She took meticulous care of the house as well - I think it was cleaner than we left it. Thank you again, Haley, for being such an amazing sitter and for going above and beyond.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Evergreen Park on Rover is $37.74 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 7,724 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Evergreen Park. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Evergreen Park walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Evergreen Park maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Evergreen Park 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Evergreen Park. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
