Christine was awesome, highly recommend. She watches our pug Buddha and is on time and has great follow up. He needs extra care because he requires insulin injections and she exceeded expectations.

About: I specialize in puppy training, senior pet care, and administering medications—providing loving, patient, and reliable attention tailored to each pet’s unique needs. I’ve had all sizes of dogs growing up and love them all! I’m currently working part time, and I have enough flexibility to fit your pets need in my schedule! Your pet means a lot to me even if it’s just a walk a day. I take my dogs out at least eight times a day on a leash. I take them for a walk twice a day. My cats are fed once a day and their litter is changed every other day.

Faith was a fantastic pet sitter! She communicated really well & kept our pets very well cared for while we were away. Faith went above & beyond by cleaning out food dishes & guinea pig crates. She even got our piggies a new water bottle! We will definitely be booking with Faith again in the future. Thanks Faith!

About: I've taken care of dogs my whole life. I know every dog is unique and needs unique care. I want to make sure your dog is treated with care and understanding while you're away! I have experience giving oral medications (both pills and liquids). I currently have an open schedule for summer! Whether you need a dog walk or multiple visits for feedings while you're away, I've got you covered! I want to build a trusting relationship with you and you're pets. For home visits, I will take time to ensure your pet is eating and drinking well, make sure litter boxes and crates are clean, and each pet knows I'm there to make them feel safe and loved. Is you're pet a little shy? No worries! I'll give their privacy after making sure everything is taken care of.

About: I've taken care of dogs, cats, and even guinea pigs almost my whole life! My personal pet care background is incredibly diverse. I currently manage a lively three-cat household with my sweet cuddle bug Lillie, and my sister’s rambunctious and silly littermate brothers, Scout and Sawyer. I am also the proud owner of a childhood calico named Luna, and a Shepherd/golden mix, Osa. Because Osa is a high-energy, reactive dog, I learned a lot from her and personally worked on training her. Additionally, I have experience with senior pets. I lovingly cared for my late childhood dog, Sisi, which included managing her daily medications. I have also administered short-term medications to cats. I specialize exclusively in house sitting at your home, drop-in visits, and neighborhood dog walks. I look forward to giving your pets the absolute best care! :) My schedule is very flexible this summer, which makes it easy to stick to whatever daily routine your pets are used to. Whether they need a mid-day drop-in visit, a walk, or someone to stay overnight to keep them company, I can easily accommodate their regular timing. Since I will be caring for your pets in your home, my main priority is keeping their environment safe and consistent. I am highly attentive to details like securing doors and gates, keeping dogs properly leashed during walks, and following your specific household instructions. I always send regular photo updates and check-ins so you have full peace of mind while you are away.

Teri went over and above in so many ways! Her top priority is your pet and their comfort,which meant the world to me! We had to leave out of town and my dog wouldn’t have been comfortable in a kennel. I can’t say enough positive things about Teri! I’m very grateful for her attentiveness and the love and patience given to my older dog. Thanks Rover and Extremely grateful to you Teri! 🥰

About: So let's be realistic, we have pretty busy schedules as adults. I don't though so don't feel bad when you schedule me haha. I've been a papa to the biggest of fluffers and smallest of small dogs. I'm very familiar with the feisty kittens and old grumpy cats, and at one point even a gold fish I kept for 2 years. I am no stranger to particular schedules, care routines, or special requests of animals. You got shedders? Not a problem I have lint rollers haha. I have been in customer service for years now, and every time when making someone's day easier or allowing them to feel less stress it brings me the most joy. I've been a mix of animals owner most of my life from fostering animals in need or assisting family and friends with taking care of their animals. I also supply baggies for bathroom time and long sleeves if it's chilly outside. I go on a lot of walks!! Anytime I'm not home baking or hanging out with a friend I'm normally just out and about exploring my neighborhood. My set preference schedule is actually just for when I have to either go to the gym or when I schedule appointments because Mondays work easier. Your pets are the number one priority. If they require something and I am attending them I make sure it happens. Not only is your space respected when I watch them but also the pets space. Feeding times, walk routes, and any medical requirements and boundaries will be discussed because all situations are different. If something happens like say something fell or they went potty by accident I will clean it up no problem. A work space is better when it's clean but also when it's fun!!! I do bring things like cleaning baggies and lint rollers but I can also make sure any particular scents are avoided.

Hannah cared our kitty Edison for 21 days while we were on vacation. Hannah is such a natural with cats and Edison got comfortable with her from day one. The regular photos and videos with Edison she shared with us made our vacation more fun and less worried. We will definitely ask for her help again next time.

About: I’ve grown up with all kinds of animals, from turtles to sugar gliders to cats and dogs. I had two dogs named Sammy and Kona, but sadly Sammy passed away not too long ago. Kona is an 8-year-old multipoo with personality for days. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, and big dogs. I am able to administer oral medication as well as flea and tick treatments. With a family that loves animals, I have picked up a few skills. I can walk, feed, and play with more than one dog at a time. I love meeting new dogs and can’t wait to meet yours :) I am a student majoring in biology at college of lake county. I do attend in person classes however with my schedule I have lots of free time in between classes to play and care for your furry friends! I believe that every pet deserves a stress free, fun, and safe environment tailored to their unique personality. My goal is to provide the same level of love and attention that I would give to my own pets. When caring for pets in your home: I am incredibly respectful of your space and your pet’s comfort zone. I follow your instructions to the letter, whether that involves a strict medication schedule, specific walking routes, or house rules. I also make it a priority to keep your home clean and secure. Communication is key: Regardless of the service, I believe in keeping you updated. I love sending regular photo and video updates so you can see exactly how much fun your furry friend is having while you’re away. You can rest easy knowing your pet is in safe, capable, and loving hands!

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life! I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all shapes, sizes, and personalities — and my own dog keeps me smiling every day. I know the joy (and responsibility) that comes with caring for a furry family member. I believe every pet deserves love, consistency, and fun! Whether it’s belly rubs, playtime, or sticking to a routine, I make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and a little spoiled while you’re away. I’m currently not working, but I’m looking for a full-time job. In the meantime, I have plenty of time and flexibility to devote to caring for pets each day. My dog is my best friend and a huge part of my life. He’s very well-behaved and loved beyond measure. I will make sure he’s cared for with consistency, comfort, and affection — from regular meals and potty breaks to lots of attention and snuggles. He’s treated like family, and I’d do the same for any pet I care for.

I want to give Rachel a special thanks for doing an awesome job taking care of my two dogs. She kept us informed with everything and we were able to enjoy our vacations without any worry. She followed our instructions and took pictures of the dogs while with them. We know our dogs were in good hands. Thanks again!

Sara was amazing with our two cats. One of them is very shy, and she completely won him over. Our boys were well-loved and taken care of while we were away. We got lots of photos of them to enjoy! Upon our return they are happy and healthy. I can tell they had good company and lots of love. We look forward to working with Sara again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Grandwood Park on Rover is $18.87 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 1,677 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Grandwood 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 Grandwood Park. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% can help with daily exercise

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.
