“First time using Taylor for my shy Himalayan cat. She was very patient and kind with the introduction process and following the details of food, water and clean up. Will definitely use her again with my cat and when I need dog walking in the near future!”

“Shr was amazing. My little beefy boy felt really comfortable and happy. She sent so many cute pictures and videos made my booking more comfortable and less stressful. Thank you!”

“Evelyn is a god send! She was FABULOUS with our pets. We have a sassy cat and two buns who absolutely loved her! She was prompt on timing and followed all of the directions we had. She met with us before our vacation to meet our furry friends and pick up keys. She sent hilarious updates and pictures. We never had a worry with Evelyn watching our pets. 10 out 10 would book her again.”


About: I've had a lifelong love for dogs and over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for my own three dogs. A Rescue, Stray and Husky. I enjoy running with dogs, so please let me know if you have a runner! Im currently working full time and I am missing the relationship with my pets. I am available every evening and all weekend to take care of your pets! I am extremely aware and attentive to pets as I know from experience the mischievous acts they can commit. Of course this will vary depending on your pets personality!

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.
About: We've used Rover for years for our Zoey. It has always been great to know she is safe and happy when we're away. We want to provide that same relief when you need to be away from your furry friend. We've had dogs for 20 years and that doesn't even count the pets we had growing up. We will provide your dog with all the comforts of home including a big fenced in yard. Although I normally work outside of the house, my husband James works from home and our daughter lives here while in college. That means lots of love and care for your doggies throughout the day. Safety is our top priority so you can feel confident in leaving your pet in our care. We have a large, fenced in yard. We understand anxious pets because we have one! We promise pictures and updates (if that's what you'd like!)

“Kelsey watched our cat for a week while we were out of town. She was always on time, took great photos and took excellent care of “our boy.” An issue came up with our garage door opening on its own, and Kelsey quickly got in touch with us and manually closed the door. And she made sure our house was secure. She made us feel completely secure knowing our house and our cat were being taken care of. We would definitely use Kelsey’s services again.”


About: Caring for dogs has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember! My journey in professional animal care began at just 15, when I started working in veterinary medicine and trained as a veterinary technician. Although I later ventured into nursing school and human medicine, my heart eventually led me right back to where it belongs: caring for animals! With both personal and professional experience, I understand that every dog has their own unique personality, needs, and little quirks that make them special. I have a particular love for senior pets and those with special needs, and I know how important it is to provide them with extra patience, understanding, and gentle, attentive care. I chose veterinary medicine because there is something truly special about the bond we share with animals. I fall in love a little more every day, and I believe every dog deserves to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for like family. When you trust me with your beloved companion, my goal is to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in caring, experienced hands. Whether your pup needs extra snuggles, a little extra patience, specialized attention, or simply someone to keep them company, I’m here to make sure they feel right at home. My schedule is currently very flexible, allowing me to accommodate a variety of pet-care needs. After losing my beloved dog, Yoshi, last year, I have more availability to dedicate to caring for other people’s pets. Yoshi had some special medical needs, including immune issues and a history of seizures, so caring for him taught me just how important patience, attentiveness, and compassionate care are for pets with unique needs. I would love the opportunity to provide that same level of love and attention to your furry family members. I have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs in their own homes, where they can feel safe, comfortable, and surrounded by familiar sights and smells. I began pet sitting for friends and clients at 18, and providing loving, dependable care has remained something I truly enjoy. After saying goodbye to my beloved senior dog, Yoshi, last summer, I’ve found even more meaning in spending time with and caring for other people’s pets while we wait for the right new addition to our family. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your beloved companion in someone else’s care, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. My goal is to make sure your dog feels loved, secure, and well cared for in the comfort of their own home, while giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in compassionate, experienced hands.
“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!”

“Morgan watched our elderly cat Bear in our home while we traveled. She did a great job with Bears daily syringe medication and took great care of our house while we were gone - it was very clean when we came back. She is a great pet sitter and we’d love to have her back again.”


About: Hi 👋 My name is Amber and I'm a big cat person! I've had a cat since college..20 years ago already! But I'm experienced with different types of cats. I had two but unfortunately recently had to put my tortie girl down due to cancer. I have a very sweet male tabby cat currently who is good with other cats as long as they are ok with him. I am happy to board your cat here and am open to a meet and greet first to make sure our cats will get along, or at least tolerate each other. I am open to administering medication if your cat is somewhat agreeable (we can discuss this further) as both of mine have needed medication for various reasons in the past. I have a second bedroom to put your cat in until ours get comfortable with each other. I'm happy to play and give your baby some TLC while you're away! I work mostly from home and usually only go into the office on Thursdays so I will be home majority of the time while boarding/watching your cat. I have a second bedroom that I can separate the cats if need be. Especially in the beginning when they are getting used to each other.

“Kristina was wonderful at taking care of Saga. She was kind, caring and loving. She was great at following directions related to her medication and food. Also, she was prompted answering all my questions. I appreciate your help and support when I was away from home. Thank you.”

“Ashley was an excellent sitter. She communicated frequently and gave us great updates about the cats. It was clear she really cares for animals and our cats were very well cared for.”

About: I am reliable, flexible, and energetic, and know what your pet needs to be well cared for and happy. I can even train if needed. I work full time during the day, but not far from home, so I can swing over anywhere first thing in morning, at lunch, dinner time, and bed time. I can feed, check on, let out, and walk pet breakfast, lunch, dinner, and/or bed time during the week, and on weekends, anytime day or night!
“Tania was great with my cats. She was communicative and she played with them. It's never easy to leave your pets behind, but Tania was caring and made me feel better about leaving. My cats really liked her and we will book her again!”


About: The phrase man’s (or woman’s) best friend is extremely fitting for me! I connect so well with animals, and have always been a reliable source for family, friends, neighbors, and more! I have dog walked, pet sit for cats and dogs, and taken care of pets (including my own dog) since I was 10 years old. Animals are a huge part of my life and I want to surround myself with them more! I currently am a sports photographer so I only go in at most once per week to capture photos and videos, and then I edit at home. Sometimes it gets lonely, so I would absolutely love to take care of a pet whenever I can! I have a perfect dog park in my neighborhood, a nice walking path where sometimes there are other furry friends out for walks so we can meet them if they are interested, and a cozy home that welcomes any pet!
About: Peace of Mind While You’re Away Hi, I’m Maggie! As a local, mom and business owner, as well a life long animal lover and pet owner, I bring a level of professional maturity, structural stability, and specialized experience that gives families total peace of mind. I proudly serve pet parents across Rolling Meadows, Arlington Heights, Mount Prospect, Schaumburg and surrounding areas. With a flexible daily schedule, I offer the true consistency and reliable availability your dogs need to maintain a seamless, predictable routine. My Background & Specializations: * Multi-Pet Households: Highly experienced in managing multi-pet dynamics, complex feeding routines, and individual medication schedules. * Sensitivities & Anxiety: Specialized in providing structured, calm care for dogs with environmental anxieties, sound phobias, or strict behavioral routines. My core focus is primarily on high-quality daytime drop-ins and daily walks, though I do consider overnight house-sitting selectively on a case-by-case basis for compatible homes. Service Breakdown: * DROP-INS (30 Minutes): Perfect for a mid-day refresh! Every drop-in includes a 10–15 minute neighborhood stroll or backyard playtime for physical relief and mental stimulation, alongside a fresh food/water top-off, medication administration, and indoor companionship. The Rover Report: You'll receive a detailed Rover Card showing exact arrival/departure times, photos, and a complete potty/behavior update. * WALKS (30 Minutes): Dedicated entirely to continuous, focused outdoor exercise—ideal for active dogs or homes without a yard. Includes a full, structured walk tailored to your dog's natural pace and a food/water refresh upon return. The Rover Report: The app provides a GPS map of our exact route, distance covered, timestamps, photos, and a quick potty report. Important Heat Safety Note: To keep your pups safe, when the heat index rises above 90°F, outdoor walks will be shortened to quick potty breaks to protect paws and prevent heat stroke. The remaining time booked will be spent indoors doing fun brain games, low-energy play, or getting plenty of belly rubs and fresh water! * HOUSE SITTING (Overnights): A premium, dedicated care experience designed to keep your pup's stress low in their own familiar environment. Includes complete adherence to their established routine, basic home care (watering plants, rotating trash/mail), and consistent communication with daily photos. To guarantee the highest level of safety and focused attention, I only accept ONE house-sitting client at a time and book exclusively based on household compatibility. As a self-employed professional, my schedule is flexible, allowing me to provide reliable, personalized pet care tailored to your families and their furry friend's needs. How I care for pets in your home: Because I provide care exclusively in your home and neighborhood, my top priority is maintaining a secure, predictable, and low-stress environment for your pets. I treat your home with the utmost respect and keep safety at the forefront of every single visit. In Your Home (Drop-Ins & House Sitting): Strict Routine Adherence: I follow your exact instructions regarding feeding, gating, crating, and medication windows to keep your dog's day entirely predictable. Environmental Management: For dogs with anxiety or sensitivity to storms and fireworks, I proactively manage the environment—closing blinds, playing calming background music, and utilizing precise comforting techniques to minimize stress. Home Security & Discretion: I ensure doors are securely locked, alarms are set, and gates are latched during every entry and exit. While house-sitting, I maintain a lived-in presence, bring in mail, and strictly respect your privacy and property. Out on Walks: Double-Check Gear: Before stepping outside, I always verify that collars, harnesses, and leashes are securely fitted and in good condition. Distraction-Free Handling: I maintain full situational awareness on our walks and ensure my eyes are always on your dog, the path ahead, and any oncoming distractions or stray animals. Weather Safety: I actively monitor weather. If pavements are too hot for paws or a storm rolls in, we will seamlessly pivot to structured, energetic indoor play and mental stimulation to keep your pup safe and happy.

Whether your pet loves having a friendly presence around the house, enjoys standard daily exercise, or thrives on a consistent routine, you can relax knowing they are truly cared for. Whether you need a consistent dog walker for your workweek or a dedicated sitter for an upcoming vacation, I am able to plan ahead and be there for you and your pet.

You can count on me for regular updates, quick communication, and lots of love for your furry best friend! As a college student taking online classes this summer, my schedule is incredibly flexible. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I have the freedom to manage my own time. I am a very physically active person who loves exercising and going on long walks. Since I live surrounded by beautiful green areas, I can easily incorporate energetic walks and outdoor playtime into my day, ensuring your pet gets the exercise and stimulation they need. Whether your pet needs early morning attention, midday visits, or evening companionship, my flexible schedule allows me to be there whenever they need me most. When caring for pets in a client's home, safety, trust, and strict adherence to routine are my top priorities. I am highly organized and disciplined, so I follow all feeding, medication, and cleaning instructions exactly as requested to maintain a stress-free environment. I make sure doors and windows are secure at all times, and I keep a close eye on the pet's body language to ensure they feel safe and comfortable. I love exploring the surrounding green trails for long, safe walks, always keeping dogs securely leashed. You will receive regular updates and photos, giving you total peace of mind knowing your home is respected and your pet is receiving dedicated, loving care.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Inverness
Taylor watched my two cats while on vacation and she was the most amazing, thoughtful, and caring sitter i could have ever asked for. The pictures, videos, and updates she would send had me smiling and laughing and from the moment we met i knew she would be the perfect person to watch my babies while away. She’s down to earth, had great attention to detail, made sure they were fed, fresh water, treats given, and litter boxes were cleaned. My cats can be a bit shy with new people but they warmed up to her right away and i knew she could make them comfortable. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better person and i am so thankful and appreciative for her!! I couldn’t give a higher recommendation, truly the best!!!

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Inverness is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $28 per visit.

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. 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.
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 .

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.
