“Melanie was great with our dogs! She sent us lots of pictures of them having fun while we’re we’re away. They were so happy and had lots of energy when we got home. And our home was just as we left it! Thank you so much!”
“Very happy with Patrycja. She dog sat last weekend and I felt she gave my Ivy a great amount of attention and exercise. She even washed the sheets before she left, which was an unexpected bonus! Would definitely use her again.”
“Katalina was great while watching our dog and cat! She was responsive and left our home spotless! Thank you for helping us get away for a few days… not easy to do with 3 kiddos these days. It was such a relief to not have to worry about the animals. I would def recommend her!”
“Miguel was fantastic! I got tons of updates, I could see that my dog was getting the very best care. Would definitely recommend Miguel for a dog sitting and walking.”
“Karen is ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC! She took care of our cats while we were away for about 2 weeks. Our cats are elderly and are not the easiest to deal with, Karen was attentive to their special needs and just went out of her way to ensure they were comfortable and well taken care of. I would highly recommend her for your pet care needs. We travel often and will use her again and again”
About: Dogs are my favorite animal! Why? Because they are loyal, caring, fun and you already know this because you own one! :) I have a shepherd mix who I love dearly. I used to volunteer at West suburban humane society, and have dealt with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I feel comfortable around dogs and have lots of experience. I treat them like a member of the family. I love all animals, so if you have cats rabbits etc I will not be bothered. I have been around dogs since childhood and working with dogs is a dream of mine. If your dog needs medicine I have experience with that as well. I am extra gentle with senior dogs and can keep up with puppies I have a flexible schedule so I can work with your schedule. We can discuss your pets needs so I can accommodate your schedule easily. I follow owner instructions precisely and ask questions if anything seems unclear. Pet safety is always my number one priority. If I think a pet may not be safe for anyone I always reach out to the owner.
“I recommend Marisol and would give 6 stars if I could. She stayed in our home and watched our large anxious dog over July 4th when there were massive storms. I did not have to worry one bit about our dog's nerves, as she did everything possible to comfort him when he was scared (stormed for days!). She followed all of my instructions beautifully, gave detailed updates, and left my house clean and tidy. Marisol exceeded my expectations, and I will definitely use her again and refer her to my friends and family!”
“Diane continues to be our most favorite, go-to sitter! Our dog is always happy and calm when we come home, she communicates thoroughly throughout the day, and I have 100% confidence that our dog is cared for & loved!”
“Fiona was very professional. She responded quickly, checked in with instructions, showed up on time, and took great care of our dog. She also was a very nice person. I would highly recommend her to anyone.”
“Angelina was absolutely fabulous with Marshmellow and Emerson. She shared photos and updates each day, she also provided wonderful recommendations on products. I highly recommend Angelina's services to care for your pets.”
“We had to find pet care for our week long trip on short notice. From the beginning Maribel was very flexible and responsive. We met for a meet and greet and our dog Ivy, who is not usually friendly with strangers in her home, brought Maribel her favorite toy after a brief sniff. We got daily updates and pictures. Ivy always looked happy and well cared for. We will definitely trust Maribel to care for our pup in the future.”
About: Dogs are my favorite, cats come in 2nd. I've rescued 2 dogs in my 70 some years. Retired and widowed now with plenty of time on my hands. Give me a call. I'm mostly available from early am to early pm. 7 days a week. Retired and widowed with plenty of time on my hands. Give me a call. Currently no pets in my home but have had a few dogs and 1 cat in the past. Will follow your instructions. I'm honest and dependable, give me a call!
“As per usual Ann was great with our dog and cat but this trip she really went above and beyond! Our area had terrible storms and flooding while we were away and Ann took our dog out on the leash to help keep him out of the flooding in our yard. She also let us know water was coming through our front door and cleaned it up for us. She made our dogs wet food into little balls because his favorite treats are also in that shape. Ann made sure our dog got his medicine which was the first time we had someone taking care of that and it was just such a relief to know they were with someone who can keep them safe in an emergency.”
About: I have experience with 2 Boston terriers of my own, as well as dog sitting for puppies and senior dogs! I am comfortable with giving medication and am able to walk the dogs every day! I have been taking care of my dogs since I was 13! I am currently in limbo, waiting for a new job and wanted to hop on here to help with furry friends! I do plan to continue working on Rover part time! I have been pet sitting by word of mouth for friends and family for about 7 years! I think it’s important that every pet family knows that they can have a caring and trustworthy individual taking care of their pets! <3 I have two dogs at home who I love very much! Ella is almost 11 and rose is my baby from COVID who is 6. So I have also dog sat for plenty of friends and family who have dogs of all ages and sizes! So, have plenty of experience with dogs!
“Holly took such great care of our two senior dogs. She was patient, responsible and on top of everything. I came home to a clean house and two happy pups and would book her again!”
“Natalie was so sweet! She was a great and fast communicator and took such good care of our two dogs! She took them on walks, played outside and snuggled them while we were away! We had no issues at all and would gladly rebook again!!”
About: Loving and Experienced Pet & Home Care I've always had a deep love for animals of all kinds, so I'm not easily squeamish. My biggest concern is always safety, both for the pets and myself. As long as I understand what's expected of me and what your pet needs, I'm confident in my ability to provide excellent care. Most of my experience has been with cats. I've had two of my own and cared for nine kittens at once. I've also spent plenty of time around multi-cat households and looked after cats with all sorts of personalities. Dogs are close to my heart too. I grew up with two and have since cared for dogs of different ages and temperaments. More recently, I've taken on extended house sits with multiple dogs, getting to know their daily routines and making sure they have plenty of attention while their owners are away. I've cared for fish and smaller animals as well. One of my more memorable experiences was keeping a rat receiving hospice care comfortable during its final days while its owner was away. I know how much these little companions mean to the people who love them. When it comes to your home, I'm just as attentive. I grew up in a household where my parents had nearly professional standards for cleanliness, and those habits have stayed with me. I naturally keep things tidy and take pride in leaving a space in excellent condition. I'll treat your home with respect and make sure everything is just as you left it, if not a little better. I also understand how important it is to feel connected to your pets when you're away. I'm happy to send photos and updates, and I'll always reach out if something needs your attention. Ultimately, I want your pets to feel safe and loved in their own home while you enjoy your time away without worrying about them. I'm an artist and writer who works remotely, so my schedule is pretty flexible. I spend a lot of time at home working on my projects, and I really enjoy having animals around to keep me company. I actually find that looking after pets is good for my own routine too. It gives me a reason to step away from my work, get outside, and have a little structure to my day. I enjoy getting to know each pet's personality and settling into a rhythm that works for both of us. I grew up in a household where my parents had near professional standards for cleanliness, so keeping things tidy and in order comes naturally to me. I bring that same care and respect into every home I stay in. When it comes to pets, I do my best to maintain the routines they're already comfortable with. I know how important consistency can be, especially when their favorite humans are away. I take the time to learn their personalities and preferences so they can feel safe and at ease with me. I'm also happy to look after plants, bring in mail, and tend to other household needs while you're gone. My goal is for you to come home to happy pets and a home that feels just as good as you left it.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Justice
Riya stayed with our pup Kenai while we were out of town & she took AMAZING care of him. She was so attentive and was so consistent in keeping with his daily routine. Another highlight was that her communication was incredible-we got tons of text and photo updates that made being away a little easier. Cannot wait to book her again!! 🥰
Heather did a fabulous job of taking care of our three dogs, cat and turtle. She regularly sent updates and photos and all of our pets warmed up to her immediately. We could not have been more pleased with her service, communication and professionalism. Highly recommend.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Justice is $44 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $59 per night. 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 November 2026, there are 7,809 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Justice. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Justice walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Justice maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Justice 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!
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.
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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.

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.
