“Jessica was truly amazing! I will definitely trust her again with my fur baby. Thank you so much for being so kind and caring. Dakota seems so happy and well taken care of. 🙂”
About: I am new to professional pet care, but I have a genuine love for animals and enjoy spending time with dogs. I am responsible, patient, and attentive to each pet’s needs. I am excited to provide safe, caring dog walks and drop-in visits and treat every pet like my own. My work schedule varies from week to week but I’m flexible and always make time for pet care. I’m usually able to fit in dog walks and drop in visits on most days, depending on timing. I enjoy being active and spending time with pets, so I will do my best to accommodate requests and keep communication clear. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, attentive presence during walks and drop-in visits, making sure each dog feels secure and cared for. I stay alert to surroundings, use safe handling practices, and always respect each pet’s individual needs and personality.
About: A lifelong animal lover with experience from puppies to parrots, I provide devoted, joyful care. Treating every pet like family and spoiling them with love and attention. I am a mother with grown children; therefore I am flexible with my schedule. I can even do last minute check ins in the event you cannot be home on time to potty your pup. As a life long pet owner of various breeds, species and personalities, I can guarantee safe and trustworthy care to your pet tailored to your needs .
About: Animals have been a huge part of my life since I was young! I’ve had 5 dogs growing up and one of my very own into adulthood. I’ve also had 11 snakes, a guinea pig, and fish. I also currently have two of the best black cats in the world named Jasmine and Ozzy. I’ve pet sat since I was a young teen for family and friends. I have experience as well giving medications including insulin shots. I also have two of my own children and have a ton of experience with care and I’m so excited to meet your fur babies! I’m currently going to school for Respiratory Therapist! I am in person Monday and Wednesday from 8-5 but besides that I am free! I customize your pets experience to their owners requests and pets needs! Your fur babies will always get the most love and care. If your dog loves outdoors then I will spend time with them outside. If they love to just be cuddled with and a good belly scratch then I can provide that! I want to make your animals feel safe and loved!
“Logan did absolutely amazing! He was super communicative and did great making sure my dogs felt safe and happy!!! He is definitely my go to any pet care it’s so clear how much he cares for dogs and they loved him. Thanks so much and i will definitely be booking again!!”
“I could not have asked for a better first experience with Rover. Mary was absolutely a dream to have come over and take care of my boys. She sent me a bunch of pictures of both of my dogs and made sure that they were loved while we were away. I would highly recommend her to anyone. I feel blessed to have found her.”
“Chloe did great with my cat, Ellie. She came over twice a day with no issues and fed, watered, and cleaned the litter area for Ellie when I was out of town for two weeks. The house looks spotless and Ellie appreciated the company. Highly recommended!”
“Taylor was absolutely fantastic! I am very nervous leaving my big German shepherd with anyone (I’m a bit of a helicopter parent) but Taylor got on with him very well! She dropped in on him during a very long day at work for me, gave him a bit of attention and a potty break, and all went smoothly! She communicated quickly when she was with him and even brought in my heavy chewy box of dog food that was delivered! I can’t say how happy I am to have someone that seems to like my big boy and will be able to take care of him when I need. Taylor is awesome!!”
About: From long walks, to extreme belly rubs, I’ve done it all. As a former dog owner of 8+ years, I know firsthand that pets are family. I’ve cared for pups of all sizes, ages, and temperaments, from high-energy adventurers to senior snugglers who just want a cozy spot and some quiet company. Whether it’s long walks, playtime in the yard, or sticking to a precise feeding and medication schedule, I treat every dog with the same level of love, patience, and attention I give my own. I’m attentive to each pet’s unique personality and needs if your dog loves fetch at sunset or needs a little extra encouragement to take their meds, I’ve got it covered. You can count on consistent communication, detailed updates, and (of course) plenty of photos during our time together. I’m here to make sure your pup feels safe, happy, and at home even when you’re away. Let me know what makes your pet special, and I’ll make sure they get the personalized care they deserve! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine whether it’s morning walks, playtime, or feeding, I always make sure pets get the attention and care they need. I thrive on creating a structured yet fun schedule that keeps dogs happy, healthy, and loved every day. I work from home and can be extremely flexible in between meetings or tasks so the pet comes first! To ensure a safe environment, I make sure windows and balconies are securely closed or have pet-proof screens. I also create a designated play area where pets can enjoy themselves without accessing unsafe spots or hazardous items. Along with providing plenty of safe, non-toxic chew toys, I keep their focus on fun, ensuring they’re entertained and not tempted to chew on furniture or anything harmful.
About: Hi there! I’m Shaifali — a lifelong animal lover and proud dog mom to two friendly pups, Lali and Phoebe. 🐾 I have over 11 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, and guinea pigs of all ages and sizes — from playful puppies to sweet senior dogs. As a full-time nurse who works nights, I’m available during the day and have a flexible schedule to give your pets the time and attention they deserve. What I offer: • Lots of love, cuddles, and playtime • Safe, fun walks (I love going on long walks and exploring nature trails!) • Experience with administering medications • Knowledge of special diets and health needs (my own dog is on a GI-friendly diet, so I understand how important it is to follow food schedules carefully) Your pet’s safety and happiness always come first. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel at ease knowing your best friend is in good hands. Let’s set up your pup’s next walk or playdate — I can’t wait to meet them! 🐶💛 I currently work full time as a nurse on night shift. I have a lot of flexibility in the day to watch dogs due to working at night! I have 2 friendly dogs Lali and Phoebe in my home. Dogs are leashed at all times when outside. If you have a special diet for your pet please let me know as well as a food schedule! I understand special dietary needs for pets. My dog Phoebe herself is on a low fat GI diet due to chronic pancreatitis.
“Tatum is wonderful with communication and is very reliable. I had some time changes and she was more than willing to shift around. I also had a last minute day drop in request that she was able to make happen. Highly recommend Tatum!”
About: I have had family dogs all my life. Currently I have two senior cats and two Belgian Malinois who are part of my family. We’re a very active family and enjoy being outdoors. I’m a stay at home mom which allows me to have a flexible schedule, unless I have appointments for the kiddos. I’m part time military so I won’t be available those weekends but I’ll let you know in advance 🫶 I’m a stay at home mom and a weekend warrior, iykyk. Availability is open unless I’m scheduled for drill and I’ll give an advanced notice or if I have appointments scheduled. I’ll follow your instructions to the T. My dogs have taught me a lot about dog behaviors and what to look out for. Either way I tend to avoid anything that may upset any dog. Cats are much more independent and they usually just need feeding and cleaning.
About: I have been a fur mama for 13 years, but have been taking care of animals since I was a kid. I love BOTH cats and dogs! I have two of each—along with a turtle, so I am not afraid of caring for aquatic animals. I have experience administering medication both orally and subdermally. So I am not afraid to do either. I would love to help take care of your baby in any way! I currently work Monday-Thursday. I am available all day Fridays and Sundays. And full days every other Saturday, because I work a half day every other. Can make some weeknights work, depending on the situation. I have a fully fenced in yard, so no need to worry about keeping your babies safe. Backyard comes with two super friendly dogs who love playtime with friends!
About: I’ve owned and lived with dogs for over 30 years. I’ve worked in the pet care business for over 10 years as a dog trainer, handler and educator; CPDT-KA certified (with the Certification Council of Professional Dog Trainers). I’ve worked and managed doggie daycares, grooming… I’ve taught group and individual classes in Los Angeles, and right here at the Petco in Algonquin! I take care of all pets like they are my own: with care, respect and love. 🐾 I truly enjoy being able to offer your dog some company, exercise, all the sniff walks and perhaps a little training to top it off! 🐕 I currently have a 65lb shepherd husky mix named Luna and a cat named Zoe (they get along!). I’ve always had large dogs and have extensive professional experience working with and caring for small and medium dogs, puppies, seniors, you name it. 🐶
“Samantha was a wonderful sitter for our two rescue cats who are very skittish. She sent numerous photos every day which really put our minds at ease while we were away. She followed the care instructions perfectly and responded quickly for every step communicated. We will defintely have Samantha back!”

Janet is such a wonderful dog sitter for our Bella. She just gets Bella. Bella is very comfortable with Janet and when we get home it’s like we never left. I will continue to ask her to help us with Bella again and again. Thanks for taking such good care of her.
I needed an emergency sitter on very short notice, and Ji was amazing. Ji was responsive, communicative, and reassuring the entire time, which meant the world to me during a really stressful day. Knowing my pups were safe, happy, and well cared for gave me so much peace of mind. I’m incredibly grateful for their help and would absolutely book with them again.
Lyssa is amazing with my puppy and working around my ever changing schedule. She is always on time and I never have to worry about my pup. The pictures she sends of my puppy during the visits, my dog looks really happy. Glad I chose Lyssa out of all of the local people on Rover.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Huntley 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 Huntley 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 Huntley 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.
