About: I have taken care of my own pets since I was 13 and have trained them myself, and if you ask any body in my family they would probably tell you that they are spoiled. I have also helped family members take care of puppies and kittens; helping with feedings, cleaning, potty training, etc. So, that they could find forever homes. I am currently a freshman in college and my class load is fairly easy and flexible giving me ample time to focus on your pet. I am a stickler for rules and following instructions, so however you want me to look after your pet and the boundaries set; I will follow exactly how you want as the pet owner.
About: I have owned and taken care of dogs since 2018. I have a friendly Double Doodle pup who can help socialize your dog and be a walking pal for him/her/them. We’re looking forward to meeting you! I work remotely with a flexible schedule. I walk my own dog through the neighborhood daily and would love to help nearby dog parents get their pup out the house during the day with a pal. I pick up your dog and allow your pup to get acquainted with my dog before we take a nice long walk, up to an hour. In the front door or yard and out, quickly!
“Tandy is AMAZING!! Organized, considerate, responsible - everything a person could want in a sitter watching over their beloved fur babies. With Tandy cat-sitting I was confident they were safe and well-cared for.”
“Aliyah was Great! Super responsive went the extra mile beyond just what I asked her to do. Sent pictures and definitely seems like she has a great love for animals. Will definitely book her in the future.”
“Mikaela is such a find! We were in a bit of an emergency situation with the dogs and she was able to save the day with her responsiveness, availability, and kindness. She gave super detailed reports on the dogs with every visit and it's clear how much she loves animals. Two massive thumbs up!”
“Naomi was perfect! I have two cats. One that is really skittish who doesn't like most people and one that loves people. Within a day or two of cat sitting she got the skittish one to warm up to her! She gave me timely updates, spent time with them, and made sure they actually at the food put down for them. For a few days after my trip the cats would look for her and sit by the door waiting! I'll definitely book her again!”
“Thank you, thank you! Bex was amazing to my cats Simba and Cookie. They took excellent care of my cats and provided a report card (and pictures) after every visit. They were on time and kept the pet areas in clean order. Thank you so much, Bex. When I travel again, I will definitely send you a request.”
“Chanell was a wonderful sitter for our dog. Our dog took to her right away (which was a relief as he can be choosy about his friends) and she let him warm up and get to know her. She sent photos during her drop in and updates on her arrival before the stop over as well. We will definitely book with Chanell again in the future.”
“Mya did a great job checking in on my cats! She made sure they were well fed and sent me pictures of them (when they would actually come out lol). I would definitely hire her again and would recommend her to anyone in the area that needs a good pet sitter.”

About: Clients should pick me because not only do i have experience but i have 2 dogs of my own in my house as well that i've been taking care of since i was about 10. i have a presa canario mixed with a can corso and i have a pit-bull mixed with akita. they are very smart intelligent dogs. one is 7 and one in 4. Everyday i wake up i also fed them and then 2 hours later i walk them for 30 minutes because a dog is kind of like human when it wakes up its hungry just like you in the morning or afternoon however long you sleep.

“Our meet and greet with Amber went perfectly. They knew just what to do to put our nervous dog at ease And clearly have great judgement and experience. We're looking forward to working with Amber in the future.”
“Jules was so great with our cat! She gave him so much love and even stayed for extra time just to hang out with him. She also cleaned up when he had an accident! I would definitely recommend Jules for your pet!”
About: I had a black lab growing up and now I have a 7lb chihuahua named Chloe who is super chill, harmless who keeps to herself. She acts more like a cat. I've dog sat for friends in the past as well as been a dog walker for neighbors. I work from home and have been for years so I'm pretty flexible. I may only leave to run errands but I am usually not gone for long periods of time. I walk my dog 3X a day, we take actual walks. She is getting old and doesn't like to be out much, but I really do enjoy the outdoors. My dog roams free when I'm home. I usually crate her and will crate your dog as well if I step out. I live in a large community with plenty of walking space. I have two kids, 10 and 14 who love dogs as well, but I'm responsible for walking and taking care of the dogs. My son is the one who really likes to play with other dogs because Chloe is not a playful, fetching type of dog. I've used Rover myself a couple of times when I was out of town.
The median cost per visit for dog sitting in Fairmount Heights is $20
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Fairmount Heights
Natalie was absolutely wonderful! She came through for me at the last minute when I needed a dog walker, and I couldn’t have been more grateful. She took excellent care of my French Bulldog, providing updates during every visit, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. Not only did she make sure he was fed and walked, but she also spent quality time with him, giving him attention, affection, and plenty of belly rubs. It was clear that she genuinely cared about his well being and comfort. Knowing Pablo was in such good hands allowed me to relax and enjoy my time away without worry. I highly recommend Natalie to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter or dog walker. I will definitely be using her services again!
Mocha warmed up to Lindsay very quickly on our meet and greet today! Lindsay was right on time and was very attentive to my instructions for Mocha throughout the visit we also went on walk together which turned out great as well. Mocha and I look forward to having Lindsay drop in again!
Alexis was absolutely amazing while we were out of town! She took such great care of Uno and gave me complete peace of mind while we were away. She was reliable, attentive, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. Uno was happy, well cared for, and in great hands the entire time. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog walker!
Anh was wonderful! My dog has separation anxiety, and Anh truly went above and beyond to help her feel safe and comfortable. Communication was excellent throughout, and as a first-time Rover user, she made the whole experience easy and stress-free. I felt confident leaving my dog in her care and would absolutely book with her again. I highly recommend Anh.
Stephanne is great with my 3 dogs. She can handle taking all 3 of my dogs on walks together, has so much experience with dog behavior, and she’s very attentive to their health and well being. She is incredibly reliable; I have such peace of mind knowing she’s taking care of my dogs.
Ehuniz did an amazing job sitting for my dog Asja! I can pretty much fill out a potential sitter during the Meet and Greet. Ehuniz was very warm and calm which made me quite comfortable (my dog feeds off energy). Ehuniz was very responsive when I made initial contact with here to sit for my dog which was a pretty quick turnaround due to a last minute issues with the person originally scheduled to sit for her. I highly recommend Ehuniz if you are looking for a reliable sitter!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Fairmount Heights stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

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.
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 Fairmount Heights 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 .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
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 Fairmount Heights with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
