“Kathryn was great to work with. Very responsive and super considerate. She even shoveled and salted our side walk, which was above and beyond. Will definitely be rebooking!”
“Gwendolyn did a fantastic job taking care of our cats while we were out of town. She responded quickly, my cats instantly liked her, and shared adorable pictures of the cats while she was here. I would definitely recommend her.”
“Brandon provided exceptional service, and I would highly recommend him. He went above and beyond to ensure our pet, Bruno, was well cared for, and we truly couldn’t have chosen a better sitter. Despite the short notice, Brandon made himself available, which allowed us to proceed with our trip when we thought it might not be possible. He checked on Bruno in our home, and we felt completely comfortable and confident having him there. We are very grateful to have found Brandon and would confidently recommend him to anyone in need of a reliable, trustworthy, and dedicated pet sitter.”
About: I have grown up with dogs and cats and have experience caring for both. I have my own pet dog who is a 10 year old mixed breed. I have administered medications and am comfortable caring for pets with special needs. I am a college student and am free for the summer. Have plenty of time to spend with your pets. I like going on walks with my dog clients and am happy to offer pets and treats to your fur baby while you are away. I can provide companionship, walks, feeding and toileting for your pets. Comfortable with both dogs and cats and can assist with any special needs they may have.
“Suzanne took such great care of our pets! She was really communicative and let us know she was concerned about one of our cats not eating (due to missing us.) It was the first time we left our pets in the hands of someone through Rover and Suzanne exceeded our expectations! We are so thankful to her.”
“Kelera was great! She played with our cats and gave great updates with photos and videos. I have an older cat that is scared of everything and she did her best to check in on her. Our younger cat was so excited for playing”
About: I offer a home-based boarding experience designed for pets who deserve thoughtful, elevated care. My home is calm, beautifully maintained, and intentionally structured—ideal for dogs who thrive on routine, comfort, and personalized attention. I share my home with a 15-year-old miniature poodle, so I selectively welcome only gentle, compatible dogs to maintain a peaceful, low-stress environment. With limited capacity, each guest receives attentive supervision, individualized care, and a nurturing, high-quality stay. I’m enjoying early retirement and have chosen to devote my time to providing full-time, attentive care for dogs. This allows me to be consistently present, unhurried, and deeply focused on each guest’s comfort, routine, and overall well-being throughout their stay. I have a beautiful and clean spacious split level home for your fur baby to freely move around in. My home features a securely fenced yard designed for safe, supervised playtime. Dogs enjoy calm outdoor breaks and gentle activity in a controlled environment, always under attentive supervision to ensure comfort, safety, and peace of mind.
“I was a bit nervous leaving my cat with someone I hadn’t met before, but I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Robin was incredibly professional from the start—communicative, punctual, and clearly experienced with pets. While I was away, Robin sent regular updates with pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. She kept the litter box clean, followed all instructions, and most importantly, took wonderful care of my cat. I came home to a well cared for kitty and a tidy space. I highly recommend Robin to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
About: While I’m newer to professional pet care, I’ve always loved animals and taken time to learn how to properly care for them. I’m patient, responsible, and very attentive to instructions. I’m comfortable following feeding schedules, giving fresh water, cleaning up after pets, taking safe walks, and providing playtime and affection. I understand how important pets are to their families, and I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for at all times. Pet care actually fits really well into my high school schedule especially since i don’t have a job yet. It’s flexible, low stress, and you can choose what works for me When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress free as possible. I carefully follow all instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and bedtime routines. I make sure your pet has fresh water, a clean space, and plenty of attention. I provide gentle play, calm companionship, and safe supervision during visits. I also send updates and photos so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is being well cared for while you’re away. I treat every home and pet with respect, patience, and responsibility, and I always put your pet’s safety and comfort first.
About: I fell in love with dogs ever since my grandma took me with her to get a husky. Bravo felt like mine and i’ve been helping her take care of him since I was 8 I am a college athlete and spend a lot of time training. I am pretty flexible with my schedule now and I believe this can be too! In a client’s home, I respect the pet’s routine and the owner’s instructions carefully. I will treat their home like it’s my own, keeping it tidy and clean. I will be communicative, giving updates and pictures. My goal is to make your fur baby feel relaxed and loved in whichever environment they are in.
About: I'm Jenni! I am a huge doggie lover and love children. I have 10+ years of experience working with dogs, including special needs and senior dogs. I also have 10+ years of working with children. I have a lot of patience. I have 2 dogs., Zoe, a Shih Tzu Maltese and Shuri a Cockapoo. I make sure that I am flexible with the needs of the fur babies I care for. I establish a routine that works well for everyone. While I do work, I am not far away and someone is usually home to give potty breaks mid day. I pride myself on working with families to make sure everyone is happy and ensure that extra snuggles and 1 on 1 is given if I am boarding multiple dogs. I have a secure fenced in backyard to allow your fur baby to get their zoomies out. I know how to properly secure your fur baby within their harness, collar and leash. If there is an animal that requires special needs or care (i.e. needing to be let out or walked alone) I practice proper safety ensuring that no one is hurt. I take the time to get to know each fur baby that comes through my doors ensuring their needs are met. On the occasion that I need to step out I will ensure they are safe in an XXL crate, or the crate you provide. I do NOT provide care to specific breeds, including but not limited to, pit bulls, bullies, Rottweiler, German shepherds, Cane Corsos, Presa Canarios, ASTs, etc. I work a FT teacher but with that comes a teacher schedule! I'm flexible and have several off days, such as holidays, which allows me the flexibility to care for your babies during peak seasons. We have a fenced in yard that is secured by 2 locked gates. I like to go off of a similar, if not the same routine that they are used to. I send lots of pictures and videos and try to have mini photoshoots of your babies if they allow! :). We treat every fur baby as our own so much they never want to leave.
“Bob has been doing weekly home visits for our dog for over year now! He has never missed a visit and is very reliable. Our pup loves when he comes to visit, I would recommend him to anyone!”
About: I’m fortunate to have experience with a wide variety of animals thanks to my cousins, who have two cats, three dogs, a turtle, and a horse. I help care for their pets regularly, so I’m comfortable meeting the unique needs of animals of all kinds and treating each one like family. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I’m currently finishing up breast cancer treatment and have intentionally chosen pet sitting as my primary work. This gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I truly enjoy spending time with animals, and being able to provide reliable, loving care while I’m in this season of life has been incredibly rewarding. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible. At my home, pets have access to a securely fenced backyard for supervised play, exercise, and potty breaks, along with plenty of attention, affection, and a comfortable place to relax. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s established schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any other care instructions. My goal is always to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away.

About: My family has had dogs since I was young. I also pet sit for friends and family while they are away on trips. I will care for your pets as if they are my own!

“Victoria has been great with Sierra. She was able to make a very shy 4 month old puppy feel comfortable and happy right away. Now Sierra gets so excited when Victoria comes to let her out, walk her and play with her. Communication has been great and she’s always on time to let Sierra out. Looking forward to Sierra having a long-term loving pet sitter.”

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 Hazel Crest 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 Hazel Crest 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 Hazel Crest 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.
