We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Guadalupe was reliable, caring, and treated our pups with love!!! We got regular updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were out of town camping. Our dogs were happy, well cared for, and clearly loved all the attention. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter! We will definitely be using Guadalupe again!! We've already recommended her to neighbors!!!

Barb is a dream come true! She’s my go to walker for Josephine and she’s come to walk her last minute when we had a family emergency. You can’t go wrong with Barbara!

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!

Gwen is wonderful! She is very thorough, attentive and kind with my two shepherds. She communicates and is very reliable with bookings, which is much appreciated. I was initially nervous finding someone for drop-in visits, but I found the right person.

aww! Thank you for stopping by at the last minute. It was a huge relief to know my babies were all taken care of! Austin is the cat’s name. He’s a goof ball and loves it while we get him a Lion Hair cut ? Hope we can have you by another time.

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.

I was so glad that Stephanie was able to come over on short notice to do a Drop-In visit with Rosie. I sent her a whole lot of details all at once and she assured me that everything would be fine. she was right. She sent me several photos of Rosie looking so happy which made me feel so good. :) Thank you, Stephanie!

We had Swagata watch our puppy for multiple days while at work since she wasn’t old enough to be left alone all day. Swagata was very accommodating and helpful, she sent lots of pictures and our puppy was always happy and well cared for. We will absolutely have her care for our puppy again in the future.

About: I grew up with dogs in my house all the time. Whether they were my family's or we were petsitting for friends, I have taken care of my fair share of dogs of all different breeds and sizes. I am a college student, so my weekends are totally free as well as my afternoons on weekdays. A walk with your dog would be a great way for me to take a break from my busy school schedule. I have lots of dog walking experience with all kinds of dogs. I am a dog lover but do not currently have on of my own. I would love to be able to take your dog out for some exercise!!

About: I have been surrounded by dogs my whole life and currently have two dogs of my own that we got as puppies and trained ourselves. Additionally, I'm an animal science major at the University of Illinois, which has further fueled my passion for animals, especially dogs. What sets me apart from other sitters and walkers is my lifelong experience with dogs combined with my academic background. Your furry friends will not only get lots of love, belly rubs, and long walks but they'll also benefit from my commitment to their well-being and happiness away from their owners! I currently have an open availability with some previous dates blocked off due to prior commitments! You can always reach out even if it seems like I’m unavailable! Caring for pets in my home revolves around creating a safe, loving, and engaging environment. With two friendly dogs of my own to keep your dog company, your furry friend will always have a buddy to play with. While I don't have a fenced-in yard, I make up for it with long, enjoyable walks to ensure they get plenty of exercise and fresh air. My home is already pet-proofed with secure areas, ensuring a safe and comfortable environment. I could also accommodate other needs, whether it’s crating your dog or adhering to particular routines. Ensuring animals are fed on schedule and always have access to fresh water is also a top priority. I am always watching and being mindful of what the pets are doing, ensuring their safety and well-being at all times. My goal is to provide a trustworthy and nurturing environment where your pet feels right at home.

About: I have had Guinea pigs, cats, dogs, and fish for pets over the years. I currently have two small dogs of my own! I have experience with dog walking, overnights for dogs and cats, and am comfortable administering most medications. I love animals of all sizes and have no problem going for long walks, playing, and giving lots of pets. I am reliable and will always keep you up to date on how your pet is doing. I will always do my best to allow for schedule changes and would like to tailor things around your needs. I have a car and also have no problem taking public transportation. Please reach out if you are looking for an animal lover who will treat your animal with care, fun, and lots of love! I currently work full time from 7am-5pm M-F and am available anytime outside of those hours. I will do my best to be flexible around you! I have my own dogs, who are friendly to other animals. We don't have any restrictions, but this is pending the dog's behavior and comfort.

Extremely happy with Christine. This is the first time I've had a drop in visit for my pets in 10 years. Christine reassured me and even came to visit my fur babies before. She brought an ease and I felt complete trust that they were in good hands. I was given many updates every visit and pictures. She was thoughtful and always on time. My pets were very comfortable with her. Which made my trip less stressful. I would definitely recommend Christine and I will happily recommend her and have her back again in the future.

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!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Grandwood Park

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Grandwood Park on Rover is $18.87 per visit (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 1,706 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.
