“They are amazing! Always easy to communicate and work with. Keep you updated as they take care of your pet, and make you feel comfortable about leaving the care of your pet to them. Definitely working with them again!”
“Brittany was outstanding and took wonderful care of my boys while I was away for work. She sent very detailed reports of her visits along with lots of pics 💜 My boys took right to her and immediately cuddled and played which is a testament to her spirit and personality. I would highly recommend Brittany and will definitely be using her services again.”
“This is the second summer in a row that we've booked Hannah to care for our cat while we were away on our extended vacation. We can't thank her enough for the wonderful care she gave Edison. Her regular updates and photos gave us great peace of mind, and it was clear that Edison truly enjoyed Hannah's company. We highly recommend Hannah to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and trustworthy pet sitter. We'll definitely book her again!”

Ive had 2 of my own dogs and will care for yours as if it were mine 💜 I do work full time but am available anytime on weekends all day!! Mondays-Fridays anytime after 5pm.

“Haley and Alex were fantastic! Super reliable and responsive, and they were also incredibly friendly. Our dog is a husky and pitbill mix who gets bad separation anxiety and is also high strung around new people. He warmed up to Haley and Alex right away, and they were well equipped to deal with a more high strung dog. Highly recommend them!”
“We booked Gwen very last minute. She was more than willing to do meet and greet before our booked times. Care for our dog (who had ACL surgery that week) and communication with us throughout was phenomenal! We highly recommend Gwen and hope to book with her again. Thank you, we’re beyond grateful!”
“Declan is an extremely friendly and reliable sitter! He's great with our new kittens and has been very gracious working with us on short notice with our relatively erratic schedule. Would recommend to anyone in need of a sitter!”
“Hope took such good care of my two kitties! This was my first time leaving them alone with a sitter and any anxiety I had about it went away immediately with Hope. She was prompt with a response to any message I sent, and I came back home to two happy cats and my home as clean as I left it. She sent me adorable updates each visit (2x a day) and was consistent with her schedule for them. I would recommend Hope to anyone!”
About: Hi, I'm Macy! My family and I just recently moved to the Fox Lake area, and it sure is beautiful. I am a dog lover and dog mom of a handsome young beagle named Tom and a high energy Cattle Dog mix named Titan. I'm excited to be a part of a fun adventure in your pups life! I am always thinking about my pup when I'm away, as I'm sure you are when you're at work as well. I'd love to put your mind at ease that they are being cared for when you are away. We love to go on small walks around the neighborhood, but even more we love to explore new trails where there are lots of new smells!
About: As a retired U.S. Navy Senior Chief, I bring reliability, patience, and attention to detail to every pet I care for. I know every dog has a different personality, and I take the time to earn their trust while keeping them safe, comfortable, and happy. I'm an experienced dog owner and understand everything from energetic puppies that need structure and exercise to older dogs that benefit from a slower pace and extra patience. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, or just relaxing with company, I'll tailor my care to their needs and stick closely to your routine. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. My goal is simple: to care for your dog the same way I'd want someone to care for my own. I'm retired from the U.S. Navy, so I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets the time and attention they deserve. I build my day around their needs, whether that's morning walks, midday potty breaks, playtime, feeding, or evening visits. I enjoy being outdoors and staying active, so regular walks are something I genuinely look forward to. I also understand the importance of keeping pets on their normal routine to help them feel comfortable while you're away. My goal is to provide dependable, consistent care and make your pet feel safe, happy, and loved every visit. I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow your instructions for feeding, medications, walks, playtime, and any special needs, while making sure your pet receives plenty of attention and affection. During walks and visits, safety is always my top priority. I use secure leashing practices, pay close attention to each dog's comfort and behavior, and never rush their time outside. I clean up after pets, keep fresh water available, and make sure they get both physical exercise and mental stimulation. If I'm caring for your pet in your home, I'll treat your home with the same respect I would my own. You'll receive regular updates and photos, so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for.
“Jenny was great. She is a natural pup magnet! Everything was locked up and all instructions were followed and took the time to put her diaper back to ensure no accidents. She was so compassionate with my dog and even took the time to hand feed her cause she was anxious about me not being there. She sent a pic of my pup sleeping before she left. Love Jenny and will definitely trust her again to watch my pup anytime!!”
“I was really nervous leaving my 9 month month old kitty and 18 year old cat at home for 5 days while i was gone, but Rachel was such a wonderful sitter, and provided me with wonderful photos and thoughtful, detailed updates while i was gone that really put my mind at ease knowing they were in such good hands. Rachel really went above and beyond to make sure my cats were well taken care of, played with and happy. She even brought a few toys and treats for them to play with! And my 18 year old cat needed a topical medicine in her ear each day, which Rachel applied to her no problem… meaning my cat really trusts her. I almost think my cats were a little disappointed to see me instead of Rachel opening the door when i got home yesterday haha! Thanks so much Rachel - we will absolutely be in touch the next time we need a sitter!! I highly recommend her :)”
About: I’ve grown up with pets my whole life and have done sitting on the side for family and friends. I have raised my dogs from puppies to now they are 15 and 10 I also got a kitten about a year ago and she’s been enjoying the ride ever since! I am currently in college. I am planning on getting another part time job so I will be sure to communicate with my clients the schedule for that. I take care of my own pets everyday and would love to add yours too. I have grown up with animals my whole life so their routine is my routine. I believe that we owe it to our pets to make sure their needs are met and that they are happy.
“Delaney was great from start to finish! We were able to coordinate a meet & greet prior to the requested booking dates to ensure both parties got along well. My cat was well taken care of - and Delaney even helped out with the mail and weekly garbage/recycling pick up. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone needing their cat cared for while they’re away.”
About: I grew up in a family with many animals, and I love them immensely. I have taken care of puppies, elderly dogs and even dogs with illness.

I am looking for clients who would like dog walking, drop-in or dog sitting services in your home. Can't wait to meet your fur babies! Please message me and we can discuss your needs and my availability. :) Thank you!! My pups are my babies, and I treat them with the utmost love, kindness, respect and pampering. I promise to do the same with your pets! I have not met a dog or cat that I havent adored. I am very detailed oriented and like things to be done well, so I will make sure to follow all your instructions to a "t". I am also very reliable, flexible and friendly!
About: I've taken care of a variety of cats and dogs from young to old. I've pet sit for several friends and neighbors. I enjoy playing and walking dogs. I'm a teacher so I get home pretty early in the afternoon. I have several days off throughout the year, including holidays, and a flexible schedule. I don't have any pets so your pet will get all my love and attention. I live in a beautiful neighborhood to take walks. My house has plenty of room for your pet to run around and play.
About: I have had at least one dog in my household since elementary school. Good with all breeds & sizes! Love to go on walks and exceptionally good at cuddles! Also will take care of cats.

I have so much love to give and would take amazing care of your furry loved ones! Will provide walks and all the cuddles!! Dogs and cats allowed on furniture if that is ok with you! Smoke free/child free home. Will send photo/video updates if you’d like!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Ingleside
Diane has been absolutely wonderful with Bruce! She consistently goes above and beyond, and I feel completely comfortable knowing he is in her care. She pays close attention to him and always lets me know if she notices anything different with his behavior, health, or routine, which I truly appreciate. She is also incredibly flexible and accommodating whenever our schedule changes. Diane is dependable, thoughtful, and genuinely cares about Bruce. We feel very lucky to have found her and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and attentive to care for their dog!
We booked Gwen very last minute. She was more than willing to do meet and greet before our booked times. Care for our dog (who had ACL surgery that week) and communication with us throughout was phenomenal! We highly recommend Gwen and hope to book with her again. Thank you, we’re beyond grateful!
Stella is an instant friend with a very caring heart. Took care of my cat like he was her own family member. Stella went above and beyond by playing with him, letting him in the back yard, setting up fun snacks for him, and even bringing a delivery in the house. I highly recommend Stella to give pets the care they need!
Valerie was absolutely amazing with our dog during a very chaotic time for our family. We were in the middle of moving, and with all the stress and changes in the house, our dog had a couple of unexpected issues come up. Valerie handled everything calmly, confidently, and with so much care. She kept us updated, reassured us, and truly went above and beyond. We honestly could not have asked for a better sitter. We are so grateful for her!!

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 .

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.
