“We have now worked with Laura twice and she has been wonderful with our sweet boy. Fantastic communication which is greatly appreciated while we are away! Officially our go-to girl! Thank you, Laura!”

“Mary was absolutely amazing! We got prompt check ins and check outs with the app and photos of our dog everyday. She enjoyed spending time with our dog and he was so chill when we got home. We will definitely use her in the future and had a great experience.”

“Mary Ann did a great job for our first time with Rover. She was reliable, timely and did a great job with our cat, Pepe. Loved the pictures, the updates and overall, she filled all of our needs and expectations. So glad we found her!”

“Amy was absolutely incredible with Thor, Arya, and Binx while I was away. She was so sweet, responsive, attentive, and truly loved my babies like they were her own. She even took Thor to the emergency vet for me when something unexpected came up, and I genuinely cannot express how grateful I am for the care and kindness she showed throughout everything. Coming home to happy, loved, well cared for pets meant the world to me. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone without hesitation.”

About: 🐾 Labor Day bookings are still available! 🐾 We’ve been hugging dogs since we were kids, and we’d love to hug yours! Penny, Ciel, and our family enjoy hosting furry friends - we take care of them and our pups play hard with them! Please note: *We cannot currently accept bookings for unneutered/intact male pups *We host a large, rambunctious group of pups throughout the week - small pups and those who prefer quiet, calm environments may not have an enjoyable experience here, and we will happily recommend sitters who may be a better fit for your family Hosting pups is our full-time job - your pups become part of our family while they’re here! We spend our days with our guests, playing and chatting with them, and can attend to everyone’s needs regularly throughout the day. Our 24/7 dedication to giving your pups the best experience while away from your home makes us a great choice for day care and socialization opportunities! We accept bookings between 7am and 7pm; we will consider bookings outside these hours on a case by case basis, potentially for an additional cost. Our availability for picking up and dropping off is limited but we aim to be as flexible as possible. Reach out with your needs and we’ll work out an arrangement that works best for all of us! Our entire yard is fenced in - there’s room to run full speed! We can adjust feeding schedules as needed to accommodate your dog’s diet. In good weather, pups are free to go inside and outside at their leisure. We don’t require pups to use crates while we’re gone or overnight, but if you prefer your pup be crated at any time, we’re happy to do that and have multiple available. Male pups will wear a belly band for the first 24 hours of their stay, at minimum - this soft, absorbent band fits around their belly and attaches with Velcro on their back. Belly bands reduce marking behavior, especially in unneutered males. You may bring your own, but we can supply them, free of charge. Using belly bands keeps our home calmer, cleaner, and fresher by eliminating marking behavior and reduces anxiety for future pups by giving them less reason to want to mark over the scent of previous pups. We have indoor and outdoor security cameras in many locations that can be helpful to review if any safety situations arise. The safety of all of our pups is very important to us! (They’re also great for catching fun footage!)
About: I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and keep you updated with photos and messages along the way so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your pets and become someone you can trust to care for them! 🐶🐱❤️ I work during the day and get off pretty early, so I’m looking for a fun excuse to get outside, get some steps in, and fill my pet fever by loving on other people’s pets! I’ve always loved animals and genuinely enjoy spending time with them, whether that means going for a walk, getting some playtime in, or just giving them some extra attention and companionship. I do have a cat of my own, but unfortunately he has made it very clear that he does NOT want to go on walks with me. So, I’d love to help give your pup the walks, attention, and care they deserve while you’re busy! I think any animal would keep me more company than the other way around! 🐾 I absolutely love animals and miss my childhood pups so much since moving away from my parents and not getting to see them as often. I’m excited to have the opportunity to give that same love and attention to your pets! I’m happy to provide whatever care each individual animal needs, following the routines, instructions, and preferences provided by their owner. Whether they need a good walk, some playtime, extra cuddles, or simply some company, I’d love to be there for them!
“Found Jenna & Nikko last min to drop in and let my Marley out while I was working. They did a great job making sure he was taken care of. Great communication and photos. I had issue with my key code they even waited till it was resolved even tho it was past the book time and came and let him out! So greatful for them both and will book them again anytime!”


“Laura took such good care of our 3 kitties while we were gone on vacation and sent us pictures of them every time she visited them. I would definitely recommend booking with her and I would trust her to watch our kitties again any time. :D”

“Amanda was fantastic! She did so well with our older shy kitty Shelby, that Shelby was coming out to visit when Amanda was at the house. Rosabelle, our younger kitty, really took to Amanda too. It really made my time away from home less stressful knowing that the kitties were doing so well with Amanda! I will definitely be using her services again. 😻”

“She was very communicative and gave Clio lots of attention and care. I received regular updates and photos, which made me feel at ease while I was away. Clio was happy and relaxed when I got back. I would definitely have her watch Clio again.”

About: I am a dog and cat lover and always happy to take the best care of your beloved family member. I originally came from Wag! a different dog walking/sitting app with over 800 completed services with a 5 star rating. I trained puppies, taken care of senior dogs, administered insulin, and love caring for dogs of all sizes. I have done dog walking/ pet sitting full time for a few years and currently looking for new clients as I moved to this area from Nashville TN. I prefer sitting in my clients home, it makes me comfortable knowing the pet is in their space and have their familiar surroundings. And following the routine the owners have given me to ensure their pets are happy, healthy, and safe while they are away!

“Brooke did an excellent job taking care of my sweet pups while I was traveling! I got regular pics - they loved her daily walks and I felt secure that they were being well cared for! Already booked Brooke again for another visit!”

About: I have had pets my whole life! I have experience with cats, dogs, horses, chickens, fish, frogs, turtles, and small furry critters such as hamsters and rabbits. I Have cared for new born puppies and kittens when the mother was not able and elderly pets that need a little extra love. Pets that are very energetic or relaxed. Pets that are having a hard time medically and need fluids or pain medications. I have cared for wounded animals and healthy ones. I'm available most days during work hours. When your fur baby needs love and care during the day while you are away. I can be there for pets, walks, snacks, medications, a simple check in and more. Every animal is it's own self and all need different care. When pet sitting while friends or family are at work or on trips I always make sure the pet has a good long session of play, affection, walk or forms of exercise, clean and full water and food dishes. Check for any accidents that need cleaned up or litter boxes that need tending. Then always be sure to double check the yard and home locks are secure before leaving.

I’ve been around dogs my entire life as I have had a few and my mom has been on rover for 10 years dog sitting. I am a College student with primarily online classes so my schedule is flexible. I am not on campus, and am currently at home in Rolling Meadows. I care for pets in my own home as if they were my own.

Although I'm not ready to get another dog of my own, I would love to treat your best friend as my own. I work in an office full-time with a flexible schedule and walk in Washington Park over lunch every day - even in the snow!

I am experienced in giving medicine if needed. I also love to play with a puppy and help with light training! I currently work in an office by Washington Park and walk over lunch. I would love to have a buddy walk with me! I can do care visits and/or walks before work, over lunch and in the evenings. I have a flexible schedule.

About: As a dog owner, I understand how important it is to have someone dependable and attentive caring for your pet. My own dog can be anxious, so I have experience recognizing canine body language, respecting a dog’s boundaries, and helping nervous dogs feel safe without forcing interaction. As a massage therapist, I am patient, calm, observant, and comfortable following detailed care instructions. I treat every dog as an individual and will provide reliable walks, plenty of attention, and updates so you can feel confident while you’re away. I am flexible and open to different schedules. Shoot me a message to see what we can arrange for you and your family to accommodate you appropriately. I provide pet care exclusively in my clients’ homes, where pets can remain comfortable in their familiar environment. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, bathroom breaks, playtime, and the pet’s usual routine. With the owner’s permission, I am also happy to take dogs to parks or on other outings suited to their personality and activity level. I prioritize safety by keeping doors secure, using leashes as directed, and respecting each animal’s boundaries. I also keep the home tidy and provide regular photos and updates so owners know their pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

About: I welcome puppies through seniors, 4–50 lbs, and tailor each stay to your dog’s age, breed, energy level, personality, and normal routine. Your pup’s stay may include: * 🐾 One-on-one enrichment games and interactive play * 🚶🏽 Weather-permitting walks in approximately 15-minute increments, adjusted to your dog’s breed, age, stamina, and activity needs * 🌳 Supervised outdoor time in a securely fenced yard * 💧 Fresh, clean purified water available throughout the stay * 🦴 Quality treats with owner approval * 🐶 Basic puppy manners and routine reinforcement * 🛏️ Rest and quiet time whenever your dog needs it * ❤️ Plenty of one-on-one attention and affection * 📸 Several photo and video updates throughout the stay, so you can see how your baby is doing while you’re away Last-minute bookings are welcome when availability allows. My goal is to provide the convenience of daycare with the comfort and personal attention of a private sitter — no cages, no crowded playgroups, and no competing for attention. Official website started pay less fee’s NitaFurbabySitter .com I am an unemployed Army veteran looking for something to do that I love !!!! I lived here in Springfield for the past 3 years. I love outdoor walks and I am not far from Washington Park. I started Rover in Daytona Beach Florida and proud to enjoy Illinois with your furbaby!!! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’m not reckless I always check the surroundings of any potential harm in or outside of the home. I will treat your baby as if they were my own. I love to send photo bombing pictures throughout time spent so no worries on knowing how/what they have been up too!!!
About: I have grown up around all kinds of animals and had very many of my own, gaining much experience with pet care. In the last few years I have helped my mom with boarding and walking back home in particular. I also helped raise and train a puppy for 2 years so I am familiar with training and safety procedures for dogs of all ages. I also love cats—currently have one of my own—and can navigate other pets in the home if required! I am currently work 3-11:30p so I am available during the mornings and early afternoons to do any care tasks during the week and weekend! I like to be shown the home/property by the pet owner prior to first individual experience with the pet. This enables pet parents to ask any questions and provide any important information about the home or the pet. This will also reduce accidents on the property if I can be made aware of possible exits to watch for pets. These all help to familiarize the animals with me so we all feel safe and can work effectively. I also try to take the pets lead when I’m in their space, more so than when sharing a walk, for everyone’s peace of mind.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Jerome
Great job! All instructions were followed and we received daily feedback and pictures! Laura went the extra mile to make sure I got pictures because the cats hide when strangers are in the house so Laura had to hunt to find the cats so she could take and send pictures! I will definitely use her again!
Laura was seriously so sweet and amazing with my kitty! 🥹 This was my first time leaving her while I was away, so of course I was a little worried, but Laura made me feel so much better. She sent me cute pictures and updates, played with her, and I could tell my kitty was super comfortable with her. She even left out the red string they were playing with, and when I got home my kitty was STILL obsessed with it 😂❤️. I’m so glad I found someone I can trust with my little kitty. Definitely would book with Laura again!! 🐱💕
Amy did a wonderful job taking care of my four cats. She always communicated well with me and my cats loved the time they spent with her. They looked very happy playing in all the pictures. There was also a storm that moved through and caused some issues at my house and she did a great job letting me know about that too!

Derek is awesome! He took such great care of my cat Mittens. He was very communicative throughout the process, taking lots of pictures, sending updates, and checking in with questions as necessary. I felt Mittens was in good hands and I'd definitely book him again!

Jossalyn took such great care of our kitties, and communicated very well with us throughout our trip. She didn’t hesitate to reach out with any questions, and was very sweet and gentle with our cats. She even convinced our one skittish cat who normally never comes out for cat sitters to come out and eat some tube treat from her! She also sent cute pics of them for each visit. :) I would definitely book with her again!

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.

- 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.

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 Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
