About: Growing up, I've always had animals in the house. To me, they're my babies! Being around animals is something I genuinely enjoy, and I know how important it is to make sure your fur babies feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Being a dog mom myself, I understand the love (and sometimes anxiety!) that comes with trusting someone else to care for your babies. Having an energetic Boxer of my own has taught me how important it is to keep dogs active and entertained, while adopting a puppy who's nervous around men has taught me how important patience, trust, and letting a dog warm up at their own pace can be. Every pet has their own personality, and I love getting to know what makes each one feel happy and safe. I'm happy to help with walks, feeding, playtime, drop-in visits, overnights, and just about anything else your babies might need! My goal is to make your pets feel right at home while giving you peace of mind! I'm currently in school, but my schedule is pretty flexible! I have classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 8 AM to 11 AM, so I'm available the rest of the week for walks, drop-ins, day stays, and overnights. Having a dog of my own with lots of energy, I know that sometimes they just need a good walk, someone to throw the ball around with, or a little extra attention to keep them entertained while you're away. Every dog is different, so whatever your baby needs, please feel free to ask! Whether it's something simple or something specific to their routine, I'm happy to work with you and figure out what works best. Don't be afraid to reach out! Being a dog mom myself, I know how much love goes into caring for your fur babies and how nerve-racking it can be to leave them in someone else's care. I think it's important to keep their routine as normal as possible while you're away, from their usual feeding times and walks to potty breaks and playtime. I want them to feel comfortable in their own environment instead of feeling like everything has changed just because you're gone. I'm patient and attentive to each pet's personality and needs, and I'm always happy to send pictures and videos so you can see what your babies are up to! I miss my own even when I'm just running to the grocery store, so trust me, I get it. I'll happily send updates so you can feel connected to your babies while you're away.

About: Having grown up surrounded by dogs of all shapes and sizes, caring for pets is a lifelong passion that comes naturally to me. As a current dog owner, I deeply understand the day to day devotion, patience, and love required to keep a pet thriving. Over the years, I’ve built extensive hands on experience sitting and walking dogs for numerous families, comfortably handling everything from energetic puppies who need structured routine to gentle senior dogs who require an extra patient touch. I am fully confident working with all breeds, managing various temperaments, and safely administering medications. Whether it’s an energetic outdoor walk or a calm, attentive evening at home, I treat every dog in my care with the exact same dedication, safety, and affection I give my own. My hybrid work setup offers exceptional flexibility for pet care, allowing me to be fully present and available throughout the week. Because I only work in the office two days a week and work remotely the other three days, I can easily accommodate midday walks, drop-in visits, or house sitting. This flexible schedule ensures your dog will receive attentive, reliable care, flexible check-ins, and consistent companionship without distraction. To ensure the highest level of safety and comfort, I exclusively provide pet care in the client’s home, allowing your dog to stay happy and secure in their familiar environment. Being in their own space minimizes stress and keeps their regular routines uninterrupted. While caring for your pet, I prioritize safety above all else, ensuring doors and gates remain secure, maintaining clear feeding and exercise guidelines, and treating your home with total respect. I believe peace of mind comes from clear communication, so I provide frequent updates, photos, and notes after every visit or stay. You can rest easy knowing your dog is receiving attentive, high quality care and endless affection while you’re away.

About: I’m a lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I have two dogs of my own, one who is 12 years old and one who is 4, so I understand the different needs of both senior dogs and younger, more energetic pets. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, basic routines, and giving pets the extra patience and attention they may need. I know how important it is to feel completely comfortable with the person caring for your pet, so I treat every dog as if they were my own. I’m reliable, attentive, and happy to provide updates and photos while you’re away so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Pet care fits easily into my routine, and I have flexibility throughout the week for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal schedule and make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and companionship while you’re away. I treat every pet like I would my own. I have two dogs, including a senior dog, so I understand that every pet has different needs, routines, and comfort levels. I’m careful about doors, leashes, feeding instructions, medications, and keeping pets safe and comfortable. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow their normal routine as closely as possible.

“Katie was amazing! With Peanut recently going blind and our honeymoon coming up, we couldn't board him and needed someone to come and give him his oral meds/insulin injections. She took the time to come by to watch me do his feeding/injections and was able to do the same without any issues! Highly recommend her services!”

About: I’m a dependable dog lover with over 10 years of experience caring for dogs. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, giving them plenty of attention, and making sure they feel safe and happy. I currently work part-time, so I offer dog walks around my work schedule. I’m reliable, flexible when possible, and will always communicate if there are any scheduling changes. My goal is to make sure your dog gets a safe, fun, and enjoyable walk every time. Your dog’s safety is my top priority. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, keep your dog leashed unless you request otherwise in a secure area, provide fresh water after walks, and make sure they return home happy and safe.

About: I’ve been around dogs of all shapes and sizes essentially my entire life. I’ve dog sat for a multitude of family friends as well as caring for my own dogs at home extremely well from training them in their puppy stages all the way to caring for them in their senior lives. I genuinely love all dogs and would be more than happy to help love yours as well! I’m currently a commuting student at DePaul University in Chicago, meaning I travel in and out of the city most of the morning. However, my afternoons are almost always free and I have no classes on Friday’s or during weekends so I’m even more available during them. I help care extensively for my own dog at home as well as having experience caring for dogs in an overnight stay setting with various family friends as well, so staying overnight for a dog is no issue in anyway to me.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Homer Glen

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Homer Glen is $21 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $28 per visit. On Rover, 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 12,068 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Homer Glen. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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. 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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Homer Glen. On Rover:

  • 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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.

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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

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.
