About: Hello! Looking for a pet sitter? My daughter and I take care of your loving dogs. If you are going on vacation, work, or you just need to walk the dog, or visit the cats, contact us ❤️ I have experience more than 4 years, and many satisfied customers. I live in Wheeling, but I drive within a 15 mile radius. Near my house there is a wonderful lake, around I walk with dogs, there is also a special area for walking dogs. I Speak English, Russian and Hebrew. Pet sitting it’s my full time job, that I love so much. I’m almost all time at home with the dogs. Your dog won't be left alone for long. We don’t have our own dogs, but we always our furry friends at our house. We take only friendly dogs, so that they can play with each other and be safe.

“Warda is exceptional!!! Hands down the best cat care professional we’ve had. We’ll trust her with all of our pets in the future. She checked on our 19-year-old cat and pilled him twice per day. She played with him, groomed him, and measured his activity. She developed an intricate daily checklist, contacted us with any out of the ordinary info and observations, washed bowls and utensils, took out cat food and litter trash, vacuumed stray litter, and left things neat and organized. Wonderful, responsive communication and planning. We are in awe and were so relaxed during our week away. There aren’t enough superlatives to describe how we feel about our experience with Warda.”

About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’ve helped friends and neighbors by providing dependable pet sitting, dog walking, and daily care while they were away. I’ve also been a pet owner for over 15 years, caring for both a small Shih Tzu and a large Golden Retriever weighing over 80 pounds, so I’m comfortable handling pets of all sizes and energy levels. My experience includes feeding, walking, playtime, basic routines, and making sure pets feel safe and loved in their home environment. I also have experience caring for cats, including feeding and cleaning litter boxes. I treat every pet like my own and understand how important it is for them to feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away. I currently work part-time from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be available both during the week and on weekends. This means I can provide consistent care, regular walks, and plenty of attention throughout the day, depending on your pet’s needs. I care for pets as if they were my own, whether they are in my home or in their own familiar space. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved by sticking closely to their normal routines for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest. I enjoy spending quality time with them, giving them attention, affection, and exercise based on their needs and energy level. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all care instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, litter box cleaning, walks, and any special routines. I always make sure pets have fresh water, a clean environment, and plenty of companionship so they never feel lonely while their owners are away. My goal is to help every pet feel happy, relaxed, and well cared for.
About: I have taken care of animals for over 25 years. I work as a pet sitter with another company and have many repeat clients. For many years I also took care of my neighbor’s dogs when they traveled and had my own dog for 7 years. I currently have 2 cats. I have volunteered with Save-a-Pet, a no-kill animal shelter in Lake County. I’m currently a pet sitter part time, so have lots of time to take care of your pets! My schedule varies from week to week but I am pretty flexible when it comes to drop-in times and visits. I am not able to support boarding at this time but do offer overnight visits. I can offer drop-in and overnight visits for your pet! Please select which option works best for you. I currently have 2 cats and cannot board any pets at this time.

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!
“Scott has taken care of my cat twice now and does an excellent job. He feeds and spends time with Quinn and administers her insulin shots since she is diabetic. We are so thankful he takes such good care of our girl!”

About: Growing up, I had a couple dogs. Along with family and friends always having dogs around, I have always taken care of dogs. I love to walk them, bathe them, and play! I would take care of your fur baby like my own! I have a flexible schedule and work independently so I have plenty of flexibility for you and your baby!❤️ What works for your schedule will most likely work for mine. I look forward to spend time with and take care of your baby and I will enjoy every second! You can trust me with your pet like it’s my own! I am an honest human being with a heart full of love and compassion. I would love to take your fur baby to the park to play and have fun, as well as a jog/walk of course, and I wouldn’t mind giving your baby a bath if need be! Perhaps a trip to the pet store to spoil?! Don’t worry cats will love me too! I know just the spot they love scratched and will offer plenty of playtime.
About: I have been dog-sitting for five years now. I would say I’m a very patient person as I teach dance to young children. I am very hardworking and trustworthy person. I’m currently finishing a degree in dance and marketing! Following my college graduation, I will be available during the day until I go to teach dance. My schedule varies each day and sometimes varies week to week, but I always have my morning available. I am definitely a morning person! I keep my home and my own spaces very clean and organized. I really don’t like clutter which makes for safer environments for your animals.

About: Animals have always been an important part of my life. I understand that pets are family. I am committed to providing safe, attentive, and loving care so that pet owners can have peace of mind while they are away. What sets me apart is my patience, reliability, and ability to build trust with pets of all ages and personalities. Whether your pet is an energetic puppy who needs consistency and positive reinforcement, an adult dog who enjoys walks and playtime, or a senior pet who requires extra attention and gentle care, I will tailor my approach to meet their unique needs. I pride myself on maintaining routines, providing plenty of exercise and affection, and keeping pet parents updated with photos and messages. My goal is to ensure every pet feels comfortable, happy, and loved while in my care. I treat every animal as if they were my own and strive to create a stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. I have a flexible schedule and provide attentive, reliable care throughout the day. This flexibility enables me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs, including walks, drop-in visits, boarding, and last-minute requests. I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment for pets in my care. I have a friendly beagle, a fully fenced yard for supervised play and exercise, and accommodations to help pets feel at home. Whether in my home or a client's home, I follow each pet's routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind while they are away.

About: I've been a lifelong dog lover and currently have a Golden Retriever/Irish Setter who keeps me active with plenty of walks, playtime, and adventures. Caring for my own high energy dog has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and giving each dog the attention they deserve. Whether your pup loves long walks, belly rubs, fetch, or simply having a companion nearby, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. I treat every dog as if they were my own and strive to provide the same level of care and affection I'd want for my own pet :) I currently work part-time on some weekends in Huntley, IL (Friday–Sunday), but I’m generally very flexible and available during the week! I just ask for a few days’ notice whenever possible so I can make sure I’m able to give your pet the time and attention they deserve. 😊 I’d also love to set up a meet & greet with you and your fur baby before our first visit! It’s a great opportunity for us to get acquainted, learn about your pet’s personality and routine, and make sure they feel comfortable with me. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. While I do have a spacious corner lot with a secure tie-out area for supervised outdoor time, the majority of my services take place in your home where your pet is most comfortable and can maintain their normal routine. During walks and drop-in visits, I'll follow all care instructions closely, ensure your pet has fresh water, exercise, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I'll treat both your pet and your home with the same respect and care that I would my own, and I'll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident knowing your furry family member is in good hands.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Kildeer
Arthur was great with my girls. 2 of them a bit leary with men they don't know well but seems things went well. He locked up when done and they all seemed just fine when I got home. He has a gentle nature with the pups and that is comforting from a stranger. I highly recommend to others and will call Arthur 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.
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.
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 Kildeer 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 .
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 .
