“Michael was amazing! When there were issues accessing my apartment, Michael communicated quickly and clearly with me. He was very flexible and made sure Brady was taken care of! Would definitely trust Michael to watch Brady again.”
“Kordell has taken care of my cat on countless occasions over the last couple of years and I have come to appreciate his kindness and reliability. When I'm away, I can rest easy knowing that my cat will receive quality care.”
“My family and I highly recommend Jackalyn services. We took a trip out of the country for some days and having Jackalyn visiting and taking care of our baby furs really made our trip much better, by a lot. Jackalyn was very communicative during her visits during our whole trip including sending daily pictures of our pets’ activities, among other tasks. We will definitely use Jackalyn services when we take future trips out of town and recommend her services without a doubt.”
“Natalie is the best! Both of my two furries absolutely love her, even the one that is very shy. I love knowing that they’re so well taken care of when I’m away. I highly recommend her services!”
“We just got our puppy and had to leave for a wedding so we decided to book with Rover. Savannah was great with our puppy and made sure he received love throughout the day!”
“This was our 1st experience using Rover and in a brand new city. After meeting Megan & Kirby, we knew we made the perfect choice. They were absolutely great. Even though our electronic looks and camera notified us when they came and went, they still sent us daily updates & photos. All of that was great, but my cats response to them made it such a great experience. She can be a very fussy senior (loves to growl & hiss at sitters). It was the opposite with Megan & Kirby. Obviously she knew they were “pet people”. Anytime I have to go out of town, I’ll be using them! I can’t recommend them enough!”
“Mikeala was wonderful!! Very prompt and professional, and gave me a lot of peace of mind over the holidays. My cats also loved her, and cats are the best judge of character. Would 100000% recommend her to anyone!”
About: I’m a dog dad of 3, I’ve grown up around all animals. I love my children and I want to be able to help people take care of theirs if they need it. Sometimes I like to bring my wife along to help, if you’re not okay with this please let me know and I’ll make sure it’s only me. I’m currently going to online school which leaves me with a lot of extra time for extra work such as Rover. Outside of taking care of my own babies. I am able to do stop in visits to take care of your fur babies for either a walk, to let them out, or to give them company for some time if they need it.
“Great help, Anh really helped put my mind at ease while I was away, and helping with the dogs was a big deal. She was very attentive and reliable on time and had attention to detail. I will definitely use her services again. Highly recommend”
“Lilla was great for visiting with my two pups! She was flexible and quick to respond when I needed a sitter due to unexpected trip to attend a funeral. She communicated well and provided me pictures of her visits. She even cleaned up after one of my pups when she got sick in the house. I’d recommend her and will use her again. Thank you, Lilla, and sorry about the pup mess!”
“Sharmily was a wonderful sitter for our two cats! She was extremely attentive in both her care and her daily reporting. We felt very secure that they were safe and being well cared for. We would definitely rehire Sharmily and will plan to reach out the next time we need a sitter.”

Mickela was great with my cats, and we have a lot of cats. She was able to make each of my cats feel safe and cared for while I was gone on a very long work trip. Normally I come home to a house with some kitty messes due to stress and this time I came home to a clean and happy house where I could just hop right back into our normal routine. I have already booked Mickela for my next work trip and she will 100% be my regular sitter. I highly recommend!. She was able to give my cats their medicine, handle a pretty hectic feeding time, and keep everyone happy and stress free. If you want someone to love your cat like their own Mickela is your person!
My family and I highly recommend Jackalyn services. We took a trip out of the country for some days and having Jackalyn visiting and taking care of our baby furs really made our trip much better, by a lot. Jackalyn was very communicative during her visits during our whole trip including sending daily pictures of our pets’ activities, among other tasks. We will definitely use Jackalyn services when we take future trips out of town and recommend her services without a doubt.
Reetchel is the best in the game. She is reliable, trustworthy and has saved me when I faced a difficult travel situation and had to come back home later. You can be sure that she will take care of your pets like her own. Cannot recommend her enough. Thank you Reetchel!
Natalie is truly a VIP cat sitter. She consistently goes above and beyond to make sure Pierre is not only cared for, but genuinely comfortable, happy, and loved while I’m away. She spends quality time with him, follows every instruction carefully, keeps me updated, and always makes sure he’s well fed and well taken care of. She is hands down the best cat sitter I’ve ever had, and I would strongly recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing, trustworthy, and attentive person to care for their pets.
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.

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 Fairmount Heights 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 Fairmount Heights. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 94% can help with daily exercise

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.
