“Marissa has been so helpful! Our puppy is so energetic, so young, and honestly a handful and Marissa has more than kept up. She makes sure our pup is cared for and she keeps us updated with everything that happens, we feel so comfortable with her around Winston. He can be a little needy, and truthfully so is his dad (lol) and she has been happy to help with all of our specific instructions. We couldn’t have had a better experience!”

“I was so nervous about using Rover for the first time but Deborah was so nice and understanding. She sent me the cutest pictures and videos of my baby to let me know exactly what was going on everyday. She also went above and beyond and got my mail for me, took beretta for walks, and even cleaned the living room for me to return home. I could not recommend her more to anyone else!!”
About: Caring for animals has been a meaningful part of my life for many years, including raising and caring for my own beloved dog, Nina, for over 16 years through every stage of her life, from energetic younger years to the extra patience and attentiveness that come with senior care. In addition to caring for my own pet, I’ve regularly looked after dogs for friends, both in my home and in theirs, and I also have experience caring for cats. I understand that every pet has its own personality, routine, and comfort level, and I believe consistency is incredibly important when caring for animals. Whether it’s maintaining feeding schedules, walk routines, medication instructions, or simply respecting the structure pets are used to, I make it a priority to follow your care instructions closely. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m dependable, organized, attentive to detail, and committed to keeping pets safe and comfortable while you’re away. I also believe communication matters, so you can expect thoughtful updates and check-ins so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is simple: to provide reliable, attentive care that gives both pets and their owners peace of mind. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable drop-in visits and dog walks throughout the week, including accommodating a variety of pet care routines and scheduling needs. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I take scheduling commitments seriously so owners can feel confident their pets are being cared for on time and according to the routines they know and trust. My goal is to provide reliable care that fits seamlessly into both your schedule and your pet’s daily routine. Having been a devoted pet owner myself, I understand firsthand how important it is to find someone you feel completely comfortable trusting with your pet’s care. I know pets are family, and I take that responsibility seriously. I believe great pet care starts with paying close attention to details and following each owner’s instructions carefully, whether that involves feeding schedules, walk preferences, medications, household rules, or recognizing changes in a pet’s behavior. I work hard to maintain the routines pets are familiar with so they feel secure, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Safety is always a priority, both during visits and on walks, and I’m attentive to ensuring pets remain safe, comfortable, and properly supervised at all times. I also believe communication matters, so you can expect regular updates and check-ins for added peace of mind. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful of your space, attentive to security, and committed to leaving your home exactly as I found it.
“Most pet parents can agree it can be challenging to find someone you can trust to take care of your pet/fur baby for you. However, Alyssa was very attentive and did an excellent job taking care of my cat while I was away for a week.”
“Genesis is very good and gentle with animals she spent extra time with my puppy and went out of her way to make sure he didn't leave a mess in the house. She was thorough, I would definitely recommend Genesis to care for your pet.”
“Kimmeth was perfect on short notice. I was out of town for a short 2 night trip when my roommate who is a flight attendant got called on a trip as well. So in a pinch, and on a holiday no less, I reached out to Kimmeth for help. She was fantastic. My cat was in great hands. She fed her extra wet food, made a pallet for her to hide and play in and got out some old toys for her to play with while we’re gone. 100% recommend and would hire again. Thanks for a great experience, Kimmeth.”
“Nicole is just awesome. She is so easy to work with and flexible. I booked Nicole services to look after my cats as I was going on a trip. She did such a wonderful job of looking after them and keeping me informed every visit. Highly recommend her.”
“Sandy was amazing! When I first contacted her, I needed a last minute sitter. I had never used a sitter or Rover before. She responded promptly and offered to do a meet & greet, working with my schedule before I left town. For each check-in, she provided detailed reports and pictures of each of our kitties. She went above and beyond when one of our cats had to be picked up from our nearby vet. I felt so much better on vacation knowing our kitties were in amazing hands. We will absolutely use her services again!”
“Kelly is so great with my puppy! She has great communication and sends the cutest pictures!! She also takes great care of my home while she is there.”
“Mara was absolutely awesome! Very communicative and friendly! My dog is shy & she was comfortable with her. I’ll definitely be booking with Mara again!”
“Kristina is the best! Always very responsive and provides lots of updates and cute pictures of my kitty Glow when she babysits her. She gives me so much peace of mind and makes me feel like I can truly enjoy my travels when I’m away and not worry.”
About: For over 10 years, I've cared for dogs of all kinds for friends and family. I've provided walks, feeding, playtime, house sitting, and in home boarding. Pets always receive dependable loving attention. Since I work from home full time, pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. My flexible schedule allows me to provide consistent attention, timely walks, and drop-ins throughout the day. I can also work on the go, making it relatively easy to adapt to each pet's needs and routine. In my home, I provide a safe and comfortable environment that’s perfect for small to medium-sized dogs. Since I work from home, I’m able to spend the whole day with them, making sure they get plenty of walks, playtime, and attention. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect I would my own while keeping pets happy, healthy, and comfortable. My goal is always to make sure your loved one enjoys the best pup-cation possible!
“Caitlin checks all the boxes. She’s so caring, compassionate, detail-oriented, punctual… truly the best pet sitter!! She goes above and beyond, and you can tell she genuinely loves animals. She treated my dog like her own, and when I got home, my dog seemed soooo happy, like she had made a new friend! My dog loves to be loved and give love, and it’s clear Caitlin made a real impact on her! My dog has allergies and Caitlin was able to give medication and massage an anti itch solution into her paws to make sure she was comfy. She did everything I asked for! Even when it came to my dog’s complicated diet haha. Really appreciate everything she did to make us feel at ease!”
“Gheraldine did a good job with my cat. Feeding daily - changing the water, cleaning the litter box and giving my cat affection. She communicated if she would be late or early. I do recommend her.”

I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! Agustina was so sweet with my cats, and you could tell from the pictures and updates that they loved having her there. She kept me updated every visit and gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My cats looked so happy in every photo. I’d absolutely trust her to watch them again!
Stephanie was kind, caring, punctual and super attentive to my 2 kittens. We hired her services for 8 1 hour drop-in visits. Sent updates every single time w photos! Grabbed mail for us everyday. She discovered a pool leak and quickly stopped it with some over the phone guidance, thankfully. We were so relieved. She is highly recommended -hope you get a chance to hire this loving human for your fur babies. 5 stars plus plus plus! Thank you Stephanie!
Alex did an amazing job with my two cats! She sent thoughtful daily updates with lots of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She kept the litter box clean, made sure they always had fresh food and water, and clearly took great care of them. I came home to happy, well cared for cats and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend!
Nicole was amazing. I’m new to the app so I kept messing up my bookings, texted her last minute and she was there for my babies with in 20 minutes! Communicated so much, sent plenty of photos, and I can see in the photos that my anxiety ridden pup felt comfy with her. Thank you Nicole!
Came home from our long trip to a happy and healthy kitty. I’ve never used Rover before but Dawn was amazing and will be our go to for any future trips. She was always on schedule and had a consistent routine that gave our cat a sense of stability while we were away. Dawn took great care to make sure everything was taken care of with detailed report cards and pics after each visit. Would highly recommend! She’s awesome!
Liraz is the best! She is 1000% reliable and responsive, communicates frequently and shares updates and pics. Our cat is always happy to see her and I have complete peace of mind knowing that our cat is truly loved and cared for. Liraz goes above and beyond in her care!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 3,216 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Franklin Park. 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Franklin Park. On Rover:

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.
