About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was a kid and love running, walking, and playing with animals all the time. I’ve cared for pets ranging from small dogs to large dogs of different breeds and ages. I’ve cared for puppies my dog has had and I’ve cared for a dog until it’s end of life. I’m currently a full time college student with with classes Monday through Friday and I work every other weekend. Monday I have one class from 10-10:50 am and have a completely free day other than that. I love going on walks and runs any time of day! I care for pets in clients homes by ensuring I strictly follow their rules. I would make sure to keep a constant eye on the dog and do only what I am asked to do.

About: I have had the pleasure of taking care of 9 dogs in my life, 5 of them lived with me (at different times) I have had German Shepherds, Yorkies, Havanese, PitBull/Boxer, and Maltese. I have also taken care of Labradors, Jack Russel Terriers, Pugs, and Chihuahuas. I am not scared of dogs, and I am also a teacher so I have a lot of patience. I don't get frustrated when they make mistakes (people make them too) but I am willing to work with them to correct their behavior. I am available on weekends, evenings during the week during the school year but I am flexible during the summer and other times I am on break. I am a mom to two wonderful dogs, Lola and Groot.

About: I've cared for dogs since I was 16. Having a dog of my own growing up helped with most of my experiences. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets, and I always treat each animal as if they were my own. I currently work part-time, so l have flexible availability for pet care. I'm available for walks, drop-in visits, and overnight boarding I’m always open to last minute changes if that’s what your schedule ever needs it. I take care of pets by feeding them, giving them water, taking dogs on walks, cleaning up after them, giving meds if needed, and hanging out with them to make sure they’re happy and safe. I treat as if they were my own with the love and respect they deserve.
About: What sets me apart is the level of personalized care and attention I give to every pet. I treat each animal as if they were my own—whether that means being extra gentle with senior dogs, helping reinforce training with energetic puppies, or making sure your shy or anxious pet feels safe and loved. I have experience with a wide range of breeds, ages, and temperaments, and I pay close attention to your pet’s unique needs and routine. Communication is key, so I always keep owners updated with photos and notes to give you peace of mind while you’re away. You can trust that your pet will be in a caring, responsible, and attentive environment. As a healthcare worker, I usually work three days a week, which gives me a very flexible schedule the rest of the week to focus on pet care. On my days off, I love spending time with animals—it’s honestly one of the best ways to unwind and bring joy into my routine. Whether it’s daily drop-ins or walks, I have the time, energy, and passion to give your pet the attention they deserve. My healthcare background also makes me dependable, calm under pressure, and very attentive to detail—especially when it comes to routines, medications, or special care needs. What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of genuine care and attention I give every pet. I understand that every dog has their own personality, needs, and routine—and I make it my priority to provide care that’s tailored to them. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from playful puppies who need consistency and structure to sweet senior dogs who need patience, gentleness, and extra love. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and always keep pet parents in the loop with updates and photos. Whether your pup needs a walking buddy, cuddle partner, or someone to reinforce training, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home.
“Alexa was a perfect sitter for us! She is professional, nice, and kept us updated with messages and pictures. And most importantly, our cat absolutely loved her! We will be using her services again.”

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. In my spare time I volunteer with a pitbull rescue but in the past I have volunteered with several shelters. I have an anxious dog so I understand the importance of patience and routines. I also understand the stress that leaving your animals can create, so that’s why I’m here to help you feel less stress and more confident in your animals care while you’re away! I work full time but I get home by 5:10 at the latest and have an hour lunch break. On weekends I only work occasional Saturday’s until noon. I understand the importance of feeling comfortable opening your home to a stranger but prior to booking we can schedule a meet up to ensure you are as comfortable as possible! I am happy to provide check in, feedings, refilling water, bathroom breaks, walks, and of course lots of loving if they are comfortable with that. I’m happy to help in any way!
About: Please take into consideration the quality of your pet sitter over a low rate inexperienced "pet lover" that just wants to watch animals . There's a difference. "RATES LISTED HERE ARE BASIC RATES- THEY MAY BE ADJUSTED ON A CASE BY CASE SCENARIO (UP OR DOWN) DEPENDING ON THAT ANIMALS PARTICULAR NEEDS" *******IMO- ANIMALS trump most people 😁 I Specialize in special needs animals & alternative ways to treat that aren't offered by most vets due to my life long experience , I know what works. I also am fond on taking care of any & all animals including horses and farm animals. Right down to guinea pigs n snakes of all kinds. If you need dog boarding, as long as I have notice I can make myself available & home 24/7 ** I work M-F daily, so any animal I can work into my schedule is a great fit. I cannot do daily letting out of dogs unless I have NOTICE (deposit required) I am open to ANY animal watched in my home if that is preferential. I can also "stay" in your home outside of my daily work schedule I'm in a huge farm house, large yard and except for weekly job am always home for one on one. Im extremely close to my local vet and have dealt with many different situations.
About: I have taken care of all sizes and temperaments of animals for 6 years, no one is too much to handle! I am very gentle, playful, loving, and energetic; i tailor myself to the pet's specific personality to make them feel comfortable as possible while their parents are away! As a bus driver, I am available to care for your pet(s) between 10am-1pm, then after 5pm on any given week day. All weekend I can give completely undivided attention! I also have every holiday break and all of summer vacation off. I am only open to sitting at other people's home's; i do not have the space, facilities, or amiable enough cat to take in new animals as it stands! As for clients homes, I am capable of taking care of up to 5-7 animals at one time from experience. Care can look like oral medicine administration needs, basic grooming schedules, potty training clean-up, as many walks as needed, and even weighing out food/having specific foods per animal if necessary!
About: I have had animals since I was a kid. We fostered kittens, dogs, and I have owned dogs and cats my whole life. My sister works at an animal shelter as well and has taught me many things to keep animals safe. I currently work full time so I typically am free at lunch, after work, and all weekends! I am flexible as well in the mornings. I am aware of all doors and locks. I make sure to ask specific questions regarding the needs of pets and what the owner needs such as check ins with photos, scooping cat litter, adjusting air, replenishing food and water, etc.
About: I've taken care of my family and friends pets for them since I was a kid. I have experience with larger breeds like rotties and Danes as well as small dogs. I'm currently working part time and have a pretty flexible schedule so I can watch your pets and take care of all their needs without stress. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of toys and a big area for them to run around in as well as two neighbor dogs that they can play with if they need socializing.
About: I've had multiple pets for the past 15 years. My husband and I have 3 cats and recently just adopted a 3 month old German Shepherd/Rottweiler pup that we’re absolutely in love with. I understand the importance of having play time for pets and will be more than willing to play a near endless game of fetch and anything else to help stretch their legs - and if your furbabies prefer to just snuggle for a bit and get some love, I am perfectly content with that, too! I am currently living in Green Park and have flexible availability, including both weekdays and weekends. I am able and willing to pet-sit, as well. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to message me and ask. I'm a pretty friendly, outgoing, and energetic person who just loves animals (: I currently am only working in-person on Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday so I have some flexibility to meet your pets’ needs. I can easily help on weeknights, as well. My backyard is fully fenced. If your pet does better in a crate, I am okay with doing this as well if it is what you do in your own environment. Anything I can do to keep your pet on their normal routine with you is what I strive to do. Consistency helps a lot with pets being in a different environment or just with a different person in general.
“Rebecca was an absolute lifesaver! She stepped in last minute to help with my dog . I’m so grateful for her help and care! If you’re looking for someone who is reliable, she is definitely the one! I will definitely be contacting her again.”
About: Taking care of your animal will be my number one priority. I love animals, I will be more than attentive to their needs and accommodate anything you would like. I’m available any time you need me and I will take in any animal, big, small, furry, hairless, you name it! I love them all. I’ve had animals my whole life so I know how to take care of dogs, I’ve had cats now for 5 years and kittens and it’s a handful but it has taught me so many things needed to be a perfect sitter! I love getting pets toys, and fancy food sometimes to spoil them so expect that (if it’s fone with the owner) of course. I can’t wait to meet you and your lovely pet!
About: In the past I’ve had foster dogs from the shelters and they would ask me for more help if they were needing extra help with the dogs. I’m available almost anytime after noon. I am looking for a new thing to start doing I love animals and I have experience with watching dogs and cats. If needed I can train the dogs and watch the house if my clients need me to. I can clean up messes if an accident occurs.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 620 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Grant 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 Grant 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.
