About: I have a lifetime of experience caring for animals, having grown up on a farm where I looked after dogs, cats, and larger animals from a very young age. This background taught me how to read animal behavior and handle different temperaments with patience and care My schedule is very flexible for walks, feeding, and playtime. I am typically available in the early mornings until 7h30, afternoons and on weekends, but I am always happy to discuss specific needs to see if I can make it work for your schedule! While I generally do not host pets at my home, I am open to discussing boarding options for urgent situations. I am very responsible and attentive to instructions, ensuring your pet's routine is followed exactly as you prefer. Your pet's safety and happiness are my top priorities!
“Tina was an excellent cat sitter for my two kitties! She sent thorough updates & both my cats were quick to befriend her (even the shy one!). I will definitely rebook & highly recommend!”
“Rebekah was on time, patient with my anxious doggo even offering to come back later if needed. I appreciated the communication throughout the drop-in visit and the many pet pictures. Pets were left happy.”

About: I have cared for and owned dogs since I was 10 years old. As of this past year I also cared for my senior dog giving daily medication (oral and topical). I am a mostly stay at home mom. I work 2 hours a day during the school year otherwise I am home and available to care for your pet! We currently do not have any pets in our home. We have a large fenced in yard and I can also take your pet on multiple walks during the day.
About: My love of animals allows me to create a personalized and enriching environment for every furry friend under my care. From daily walks to playtime and cuddles, I ensure that each pet receives the attention and affection they deserve. Whether it's administering medication, handling special dietary requirements, or simply providing companionship, I am committed to the well-being and happiness of your beloved pets. Trust me to provide reliable and compassionate care while you're away, giving you peace of mind knowing your furry family members are in loving hands. My kids (both human and furry) are excited to welcome your fur baby into our lives! I work from home and can give your pet the time and attention they need!

About: I live near a walking trail for those that like a nice stroll, or for those that don’t I also have a few comfy couches to relax on. As a foster pet parent, I’m familiar with providing medications if needed. I typically work from home and am able to care for your pet while you’re away. My cats are friendly and use to foster cats so they’ll either play with your cat our leave them be. No matter what, your cat will not be alone. My home has multiple floors with large litter boxes on each floor, there is plenty of space and lots to explore. We have different dietary needs for our cats so I can definitely accommodate any specific dietary needs.
About: I have been around dogs most of my life. In my life time I had 5 dogs in my house hold but not all at once. I watched my brother German shepherd on multiple occasions and walked many dogs for my neighbors. I also volunteer at the local animal shelter to help them walk and foster dogs too! Can’t wait to meet your pet!! I can walk your dog anytime during the week and weekends, but prefer mornings or afternoons. I can also dog sit for any day during the week and weekends I have dealt with multiple dogs in my life time so I know how to respond in an emergency occasion. I can crate a dog if you need me to.
About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I was around 10, ranging from cats, dogs, and even to bunnies!! I love all animals with my whole heart and soul. I was thinking about getting a regular part-time job, like at a grocery store or something but I am realizing I would much rather spend time around animals. They genuinely just make me so happy. I currently am attending my senior year of high school, and my schedule alternates each day from ending at 3 to ending at 1. The days switch weekly, please keep this in mind! Let me know if you have any questions. I have a huge cage for my bunny, more than half the size of my queen bed. He’s potty trained, free roams, and is so far the only man that has not gotten on my nerves. My family also has 5 cats!! We have toys, litter boxes, 2 of them like spending time outside, and they all get along (somewhat) well.
About: I am a dog mom of one, but have had dogs my entire life. My dog Moose is deaf and lives with MG, so I have practice with special needs dog. I have experience with dog walks, dog drop-ins, as well as long and short term experience with dog sitting. When working with dogs, I love them as much as I love my own. I know they might be a little nervous having someone new in their home, or taking them on a walk, so I take it as slowly and calmly as they need. In the end, I would want only the best for my dog, so I plan on doing the same for yours. I’m currently working a job where I have to be at work 8-4 OR 9-5 depending on the day! Depending on location, I can bop over for a lunch break to let the dog out if they need some extra love in between! I welcome dogs in so they feel at home. With my dog, we allow him on the furniture and he sleeps in our bed. We also respect if that is not the standard for your dog, and will follow whatever rules you feel most comfortable with. I live in an apartment in a gated community with 2 dog parks and lots of room to walk around and explore.
“Kenya has been visiting my two very energetic dogs for a few weeks now and it has been a great experience. She is always on time and gives a detailed report. It is comforting to know my dogs are receiving top notch care while I’m at work. I highly recommend Kenya!”
About: I have loved and cared for animals for most of my life. Growing up surrounded by pets taught me how important patience, kindness, and attention are to their well-being. I understand that every pet has its own personality and needs, and I always strive to provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment. I enjoy spending time with animals, taking walks, playing, and making sure they feel happy and cared for while their owners are away. I look forward to meeting you and giving your pet the same love and attention I would give my own. Caring for animals is something I truly enjoy and take seriously. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their families are away. I moved to another country because of the war in my homeland, and spending time with animals has become especially meaningful to me, as I deeply miss the connection I had with them before. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment. I follow each pet’s routine, make sure they get plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection, and I always prioritize their safety and well-being. 😀
About: Since I was a teen, I've always been the go-to person asked to pet sit for people when they went on vacation. I've done it for 10+ years. I recently graduated from law school in May, and I am currently studying for the BAR. I would love to make some money on the side, caring for your special guys and girls! Currently, I have full availability because my sole focus is studying for the BAR. So I can make myself available at any time day or night! I love animals, and I recognize how much they crave attention, especially when they're missing their owner. I would love to provide that necessary attention in your absence. I will make sure that your place is the same as it was when I got there. With a fresh litter box cleaning for cats.
About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was 13 years old, whether they be my own, family, friends, or friends of friends. Love them all! I have recently retired and looking to fill some of my time with helping take care of your pets. Whether it be checking in on them or watching them while you’re out of town. I have a single-family home with a good size backyard and a pet friendly home. Plenty of room to care for your pets and keep them safe.

Donna and Stephen were absolutely fantastic with Jax! From the moment I left him, I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in such caring and attentive hands. They treated Jax like he was one of their own, and I especially loved receiving pictures throughout his stay. Seeing how happy and comfortable he was gave me such peace of mind and let me know he was being well cared for and having a great time. It means so much to find people you can truly trust with your fur baby, and Donna and Stephen are definitely those people. Jax gives them five paws! 🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾 I would absolutely recommend them and will definitely be using them again. Thank you both for taking such wonderful care of Jax! ❤️
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. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Glenview is $19 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $8 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 .
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
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.
