About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life, mostly chihuahuas and rescues, so I’m very comfortable with pups who need a little extra patience, reassurance, or understanding. My hands-on experience goes far beyond casual pet care. At Miami University, I was part of Paws for a Cause, where we helped train dogs to prepare them for working with children or future companion roles. This gave me a strong foundation in obedience training, reading body language, and supporting dogs with different temperaments. More recently, I’ve been volunteering with the Evanston Animal Shelter, working with dogs who have a wide range of behaviors and needs. There, I’ve assisted with medication administration, training sessions, enrichment, and helping nervous or high-energy dogs feel more comfortable and confident. I’m also on a path toward becoming a Physician Assistant, which adds to my calm, attentive, and health-focused approach. I’m comfortable managing routines, monitoring for changes, and making sure each dog feels safe and cared for. Overall, I bring a mix of lifelong experience, formal training exposure, shelter work, and genuine love for dogs of all personalities. Your pet will be treated with patience, structure, and plenty of affection. I work full-time as a medical scribe during the day (9–5), so evenings, weekends, and holidays are when I’m most available for pet care. During those times, I’m fully focused on your pet’s needs—whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company. My schedule outside of work is very flexible, so I can reliably fit in consistent visits or longer stays. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible—feeding schedules, walk times, crate routines, and any training cues you use. I take time to get to know your pet’s personality, comfort level, and boundaries so they feel safe and relaxed. I provide plenty of attention, enrichment, and calm companionship, and I always keep water fresh, watch for behavior changes, and send regular updates so you feel connected. If I’m hosting in my home (or doing extended stays), I make sure pets have a quiet, clean space to settle in, regular potty breaks, structured playtime, and a consistent routine. Safety is a top priority, doors secured, no access to anything unsafe, and lots of supervised time. Whether I’m in your home or mine, your pet gets patient, reliable care with the goal of making them feel comfortable, understood, and well-loved.
About: I am currently a college student who loves animals. I have a dog and three cats at home, and I have volunteered at animal shelters in the past, so I’m very experienced with pets. While I am newer to house sitting, I am definitely not new to loving and caring for our furry friends! I work part time so I am available multiple times every day. I can stop by homes in the morning before work, and then after work in the afternoon and evening. I walk my dog and he loves our fenced in yard. I also am accustomed to feeding and cleaning litter boxes. And of course, care, love and attention are important every day!
“We booked Viviana for multiple drop in visits for our two cats and were very impressed. She was responsive and met with us beforehand to ask detailed questions about our cats’ needs. During each visit she sent multiple photos and made sure everything was taken care of. It gave us real peace of mind while we were away. Highly recommended!”
“Yimei was GREAT. Highly recommend. She went above and beyond taking care of Lucy, my 15 year old very needy cat! Lucy was very well taken care of. Yimei also communicated promptly after every visit.”
“Anana was brilliant. She sent goofy pics of our little orange boy. There was an issue with our door and she worked with us to work through it. She communicated well and is very reliable. Thank you so much Anana!”
About: While I’m beginning my professional pet care journey, I’ve been around animals my entire life — including cats, dogs, turtles, and more — and I’m very comfortable providing loving, compassionate, high-quality care. I’m intuitive, empathetic, detail-oriented, and a strong communicator, which I believe are all important qualities when caring for animals. I understand how important it is to place your pets in trustworthy hands, and I’ll always treat your fur babies with the same love, patience, and attention I would want for my own. I’m not just there to complete tasks — I genuinely love animals and enjoy bonding with them, making sure they feel loved, comforted, and cared for while their humans are away. Whether your pet needs a fun, active environment or a calm and relaxing space, I’m happy to accommodate their unique personality and needs to help them feel happy, safe and comfortable while in my care. Thank you for considering me! If you have any questions, feel free to reach out. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! :) I have a very flexible schedule as someone who creates my own work hours, which allows me to accommodate many different schedules and give your pet plenty of attention, care, and companionship throughout the day. I care for your pets in your home with the same love, attention, and respect that I would give my own. I greet them warmly and offer plenty of pets, cuddles, affection, and companionship based on their individual personality and comfort level. I make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, clean litter boxes, playtime, and any additional accommodations or care requested. For pets who require walks, I ensure they are safely harnessed and comfortable while allowing them time to explore and sniff at their own pace. I stay attentive to their surroundings, prioritize their safety around other animals, and make sure they remain comfortable in all weather conditions — never too hot or too cold. My goal is always to help your pets feel safe, cared for, relaxed, and loved while you’re away. :)
About: Although I am new to providing pet care to others, I have owned and cared for pets for most of my life. I have a new Bernedoodle puppy named Honey. I am also a single mom of two young boys and a full time special education teacher. I am currently a full time special education teacher and a single mom of two boys (currently ages 10 and 8). We have a new Bernedoodle puppy named Honey. I am available Monday through Friday between 3:30 and 8:30pm and Saturday and Sunday most of the day during the school year. Summers, winter breaks, and spring breaks allow me more flexibility durin the daytime hours. I have a large fenced-in back yard and lots of dog toys. We have a doggy door in the basement to allow dogs to get to the backyard in an potty emergency.
About: I love all animals and treat them with the respect they deserve. Dogs are definitely my spirit animal. I really enjoy taking care of pets and playing with them! :) I am a summer camp counselor which leaves my nights and weekends free. I wouldn't want to spend my free time doing anything else. I love spending time with animals! :) I will be gentle with your pet and firm when necessary. I adore animals and treat every one with respect and care. I will make sure everything is clean and as it should be! :)
“Paige is FANTASTIC! My dogs loved her the minute they met her. She took great care of them and communicates well. I had no worries at all going away and leaving my 2 Danes in her care! She’s definitely added to the top of our pet sitter list!”
“Parisa was an absolute angel. Our beloved pet rabbit became sick while we were out of town, and she immediately stepped in to provide emergency care without hesitation. Her compassion, attentiveness, and genuine love for animals truly saved our little one’s life. We are forever grateful for what she did. she went above and beyond in every way imaginable. It’s rare to find someone as kind and dedicated as Parisa, and we can’t recommend her enough to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. She’s simply amazing”
About: We've had dogs and cats in our family for years and miss hearing the patter of paws! We treat our pets well and enjoy playtimes and grooming dogs. Either my son or I are home to be with your pet. I work part time and my son is here when I work. He is working on his master's in business and loves to walk and play with the dogs. We do not have any pets of our own at present. This is a pet friendly home and yard on a quiet cul de sac. We dog sit other family members pets at time. Dogs are welcome in most rooms of the house.
About: I’m a real person who loves all animals and I’d say dogs happen to be number one in my book. I like to think I’m a dog whisperer, but nothing has been confirmed yet. I treat them just like a good friend. I love to get us both some exercise and have some fun while we’re at it! I’d love to help you out with any care needed for your loved ones. They deserve the best and I’d like to help provide peace of mind. I am open to all breeds and sizes. Cats are welcome, even other pets and insects you may have excluding one, those hissing roaches would have to be the only exclusion. Thanks for Your consideration. Happy dog care taker hunting :) I prefer to care for animals early morning before my other demands take over…but would love to get to know your pets and be flexible when needed. Well, at the moment, I only have plants that require my attention. I love animals of all sorts and would love to have some of my own, but I plan to travel and I know that getting one requires a lot of attention. Giving them up after a certain amount of time is not an option.
About: I've had my own dog for 4 years, as well as taking care of my neighbors' senior dog while they are out of town. I am known for being responsible and I love being active so I'm always happy to go on long walks. I also run 3-6 miles every day and am happy to bring your dog along for some extra excercise. I'm looking to get a part time job over the summer, so I'll be free for at least a part of every day to hang out with your pets :) I have a fenced yard with plenty of room to play! I also have several neighbors with friendly dogs always looking for new buddies to hang out with.
“Scott was absolutely fantastic checking in on our 2 cats. He was extremely patient and ensured the more anxious of our 2 cats was okay and eating / drinking while we were gone. Thank you Scott!”
About: Im a reliable and caring dog sitter with several years of hands-on experience. I’ve been a dog owner for 10 years, so I understand the importance of keeping pets safe, happy, and on their regular routines. I have plenty of experience with puppies as-well. I’ve dog sat multiple times for family friends and customers, taking care of dogs of different sizes, breeds, and temperaments. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playing, or just providing companionship, I make sure every dog feels comfortable and well cared for while their owner is away. I’m responsible, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with animals. I’m currently in high school but don’t have a job at the moment so i’m able to work after 3 on weekdays and anytime on weekends! I make sure to walk and feed my dog routinely and follow a schedule if the sitter has one! I am used to taking longer walks if the dog needs aswell.
“Can’t say enough good things about Camila. Quick to respond to my request, flexible to setup a meet and greet, great with the dogs, sent pictures and was very informative about how they were doing and arrived within the agreed upon appointment time. I would absolutely recommend her and use her again.”
About: I’ve grown up and taken care of dogs since I was 8 years old! Since then, I’ve taken on the responsibility of walking, feeding, and bathing dogs of my own as well as the dogs of my family and friends frequently. I love all dogs and commit myself to taking care of each pup’s needs! When I come to take care of your dog, I will dedicate my time and energy to making them feel loved and safe. I’m currently working part-time this summer, so I’ll have many afternoons free to walk your pup! I’m available most days after 3:45 and all day on Fridays. I am open and willing to accept last minute bookings as well. I have two dogs of my own! One is a small, older toy poodle and the other is a medium, younger sheepadoodle. We love to go on walks at home since these girls are full of energy!

The best pet sitter. Rosy literally just saved my cat’s life, when she noticed he was not his usual self, took him to the vet, where they identified he had a urinary blockage and likely just hours to live. How lucky for us that Rosy was caring for our animals and so observant. Thank you, forever. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

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 Glenview 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.
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 Glenview 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 .
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 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 Glenview with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
