“Kamron was great! My husband and I were away overnight for a friend's wedding and so we had her do check-ins every few hours. She sent pictures and was great with communicating. She was also great during the meet-n-greet with our dog, which is usually when he goes the most berzerk with meeting a new person! I would definitely book her again.”

About: I'm located in Sycamore, IL and am familiar with the surrounding area. I’ve been caring for dogs of all ages and sizes for most of my life, from puppies to senior sweethearts. Whether it’s playtime, long walks, or just plenty of cuddles, I make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and loved. I understand that each dog has their own personality and needs, and I take the time to get to know them so they feel right at home with me. Your dog will be treated like family—with patience, kindness, and lots of belly rubs. On each visit I can spend 30 minutes or a couple of hours, even overnight - whatever your fur baby needs. I'm currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to give your pets the love, care, and attention they so richly deserve. I'm happy to spend a quick 30 minutes, a few hours, or overnight - whatever your fur babies need! Some holidays are available, but do fill up quickly. I will provide your pet with the same care and consideration that you do. I'll make sure they not only have their food, water, and bathroom breaks, but plenty of playtime, walks, and love on the schedule you wish them to have. Keeping their routine as close to normal is my goal while your pets are in my care.
About: Hi! I’m Michael, and caring for dogs isn’t just something I do. It’s been a huge part of my life since 2010. For over 16 years, I worked as a professional dog walker, pet sitter, trainer, and route manager in the Chicago area. During that time, I worked with two highly respected pet care companies, Worthhee and Swooft, where I wasn’t just trusted to care for clients’ beloved pets, but also to manage walking routes, train and onboard new team members, and help maintain the high standards our clients expected. Over the years, I’ve cared for just about every breed, size, age, and personality imaginable. From energetic puppies learning good manners to gentle senior dogs needing extra patience and specialized care, I’ve truly seen it all. I’m experienced administering medications, caring for dogs with medical conditions, changing diapers for senior pets, working with reactive or anxious dogs, and making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. I’m also certified in Dog and Cat CPR, because I believe our pets deserve someone who’s prepared for the unexpected, not just the everyday. These days, I’m the Assistant Store Manager at Blain’s Farm & Fleet in Sycamore. One of my favorite parts of the job is getting to meet all the puppies and dogs that come through the store… but honestly, it’s never enough! I miss spending my days working directly with dogs, which is exactly why I’m joining Rover. A few years ago, life took me in the best possible direction. I met my amazing wife, fell in love, and she convinced me to trade Chicago’s busy streets for the quieter life in Sycamore. It turned out to be one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. We love our community, and I’d be thrilled to get to know yours, one wagging tail at a time. Whether your dog needs a long walk, an afternoon of play, medication, extra patience, or simply someone who will treat them like family while you’re away, you can count on me. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your best friend, and I take that responsibility seriously. I look forward to meeting you and, more importantly, your pup! I have wide open flexibility with my job at farm and fleet I am able to make sure your pup gets the car that they need! I unfortunately can not offer in home pet care due to the fact that my sweet pitbull is a little reactive to other dogs, but I am able to travel to you and give you dog the best care in the area guaranteed.
About: I’ve had cats my entire life, I’ve also had several rodents, mice and rats, and I’ve looked after friends dogs. I have fostered many cats and I’m also very experienced with giving animals medicine. I work remote and will have plenty of time to spend with your fur baby! I just graduated college, I’m looking for an additional source of income to add to my part time job. I’m pretty open week days and may be able to make different times work on Fridays and Sundays. My schedule can be flexible, so feel free to reach out 🙂 I will follow all of the owners instructions, send pictures and text message updates. I can have cats and cat friendly dogs spend the night. I have two cats but they will be kept seperately. Let me know if you have any special requests :)
About: I've been caring for cats and dogs for over 12 years and have experience with pets of different ages, personalities, and energy levels. As a lifelong animal lover and cat owner myself, I understand how important it is to have someone dependable caring for your pet. Friends, family, and neighbors regularly trust me with their pets because I provide attentive care, follow instructions carefully, and treat every animal like they're my own. I am available Saturdays through Mondays and have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate drop-ins, walks, and pet sitting visits throughout the day. I am based in Chicago's South Loop and generally prefer bookings nearby so I can provide reliable and timely care. I welcome both recurring clients and new pets. I pride myself on being dependable, communicative, and respectful of both pets and owners' homes I currently provide care in clients' homes rather than my own. I understand that every pet has unique routines, preferences, and needs, and I take the time to follow each owner's instructions closely. My goal is to help pets feel comfortable and safe while maintaining the routines they're familiar with.
About: I’ve cared for dogs, cats, reptiles, and fish for the last 15+ years. I am a certified Dog Star Dog Trainer. I also managed a pet store for over 2 years; responsible for multiple animals at once. My family and I have breed dogs as well for the past 10 years. I am comfortable with all breeds, temperaments, and care needs. I work as a part time mental health therapist. I set my own schedule, I’m pretty flexible in my schedule. I am also home most weekend & holidays as my family lives local as well. I have two pups, a Bernese Mountain Dog and a rescue pitbull. I spend my free time traveling with my spouse and our fur babies. I know what it’s like to worry about your pet at home, I’ll treat your baby like you would.
About: I’ve done dog walking and drop in visits in the past working with dogs, small critters, and cats. I have about 2 years of experience with dog walking and drop in visits and haven’t had any complaints that I know of from the pet owners that I was working with. I understand the body language of both dogs and cats and I’m able to respect the pets boundaries and know how to access a situation. I also used to work at the animal shelter for a bit! Currently I don’t have a job other than Rover so I have the time to take care of your pets and my schedule is pretty open. I have 2 cats and I take care of them by feeding them wet food 2 times a day and dry food throughout the day and I also scoop their litter boxes and play with them. I’m very respectful of clients homes and respect the rules they have in place for their home because everyone’s care for their pets and homes are different.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 725 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Five Points. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.

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.
