“Taylor took good care of our kitties and sent us photos! She communicates and takes instruction very well. The cats were very happy and well-kept when we got home, and they seemed to take a liking to her, which was very important to us!”

“Mya is always so fantastic with Prince! He is currently struggling with allergies and was standoff-ish and wanting to be left alone, at the beginning. However, Mya is extremely patient and understanding, and she allowed him to have his space. Of course, Prince’s mood shifted and he came around! Thank you, Mya!”

About: I have long helped family and friends with watching and checking in on their own dogs and have had a passion for interacting and helping animals since I was young! I am happy to help however I can with making sure they are comfortable and content. I currently work full time in the evenings, so I have plenty of time in the morning and afternoons to play with your pets! Since I already have a routine established with taking care of my own pet, spending time and getting to know your pet’s routine will help build trust and comfort in the process. I always try to make sure I approach them in a way that they are comfortable and taken care of without making them feel threatened or not secure. I meet them where they are at to ensure trust is first and foremost.

“Brianna took care of my cats while my fiancée and I were out of town. It’s a bit difficult to find sitters that can administer oral medicine to cats, and Brianna was able to meet the task, give love to my 2 cats and make sure their area was well kept. She responds quickly to texts as well. If you need a cat sitter, I would recommend her to any client!”

She cared for our dog while we had a weekend away with family and we felt so calm and comfortable with her from the beginning of our experience. She even stopped by to get acquainted with our pup the day before we left, and each visit she sent us photos and notes on how he was doing!”

About: Dogs are a huge part of my life. My husband and I have 3 dogs and I actively train and compete in dog sports with two of them. The other is more of a companion but I couldn't help myself and he also has a few titles. The majority of my free time is spent training my dogs, going to classes, and going to competitions. Because of that, I've gotten to know a lot of different dogs and personalities. I’m happy to follow whatever rules and routines you have at home because I know how important consistency can be. I just love dogs, understanding them, and meeting them where they are. My husband and I tag-team pet care depending on our schedules, which gives us a lot of flexibility. We’re both very attentive about making sure dogs are safe, comfortable, and cared for the way their owners would care for them. I work from home, which gives me a lot of flexibility for pet care. My husband and I tag-team depending on our schedules, making it easier for us to accommodate walks, drop-ins, and house-sitting throughout the week. Between the two of us, we have availability throughout most of the day and can accommodate a variety of schedules. I will do my best to keep their routine as normal and familiar as possible. I’m happy to follow your usual feeding schedule, walks, training cues, house rules, and any other routines your pet is used to. I pay close attention to each pet’s comfort level and personality and won’t force interaction if they need some time to warm up. Safety is really important to me, so I also appreciate knowing about any behaviors or tendencies I should watch for like whether your dog is an escape artist, likes to bolt through doors, is reactive to certain dogs or people, or has any other quirks that might not be obvious at first. The more I know about your pet, the better I can care for them and keep them safe. I’ll also treat your home with the same care and respect I’d want someone to show mine.

About: I've taken care of animals since I was a kid, owned dogs as big as Saint Bernards, 4 cats, and currently a Pitbull. I've put my dog through beginner, intermediate, and advanced obedience training, so I can put that training to work with your animal as well. :) I work as a teacher during the day, so I can visit your pets anytime after 3pm and anytime, morning or night on the weekends. Since I have grown up around animals, I know how to respect their boundaries and let them 'accept' me before I give them pets. I know their body language well enough to know when they're happy, upset, or don't like a certain thing in their environment. I know that animals need stimulation, so I like taking them for walks and giving them proper attention and playtime :)

It was clear from the get-go that she’s an organized, responsible pet sitter who loves animals and takes their personalities/routines/preferences into account. We appreciated the detailed updates and pictures from each check in, it was reassuring to know our cat was in good hands. Highly recommend Brittany and we’ll definitely work with her again!”

About: Why do I do what I do? Because there's no feeling like receiving that first tail wag, head bump, or slobbery kiss. My calling is to advocate for the ones who can't do it themselves and to care for them. Having 6 cats and some reptiles of my own and being a Veterinary Technician is what my life consists of and I love it. Being a Veterinary Technician aids me in many ways while pet sitting. Being able to read animals body language and understand their ways of communicating allow me to bond and build trust with my pet friends. I'm comfortable with all breeds, temperaments, special needs, and feline friends(spicy ones too). Building that bond with all my furry friends is what brings joy to my soul. Making sure every pet is happy, healthy, and feels safe are my main priority, always! I have the luxury of creating my own schedule so fortunately I am very flexible. Lately I have been sitting, walking, and doing drop-ins on a more regular basis. I do have a part-time job, but that schedule is made according to my business schedule. Pet care comes first! It's all about your pets safety and comfort thats my main priority. All of my services will be done in your home to make things as stress free as possible for your pets. I am more than happy to do your daily routines as you would and care for every pet as if they are my own.

About: I have loved animals since childhood, and when I was a child I had a cat. I also lived with my boyfriend's family for a year, they had a dog and I took care of Him. Now periodically my friends leave their dogs with me when they go on a trip or on a business trip. I love this expression: "Dogs talk, but only to those who can listen." I work online so I have a lot of time to play and take care of your dogs. The second part of the day is more freely , but I have a flexible schedule and can combine work and pet care. I have a large one-room apartment with plenty of space for a dog. Near the house there is a large area outside for walking, a few minutes away there is a large park with a lake. I walk the dog several times a day, feed it on schedule, and play with the cats' and dogs' favorite toys.

Maggy was wonderful with our cat, Suki! He isn’t the most people-friendly cat, but he got along really well with Maggy. She was attentive, caring, and always made sure Suki had everything he needed. We really appreciated the updates and care she provided while we were away. We would definitely book with Maggy again! :)

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Hoffman Estates on Rover is $11 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $27 per visit. 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.

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 .

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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 .

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.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
