Katerina was absolutely perfect! This was my first time using Rover and she made the experience very easy and nice! She did exactly what we needed which was visit our babies once a day and feed and play with them, but she went above and beyond when she sent photos and videos of them at each visit! It was so nice to get those updates while we were away! I will absolutely be using Rover again, especially Katerina! Thanks again!!!

About: I’ve cared for pets from all walks of life, including small and large dog breeds, cats, and even specialty pets such as bearded dragons and fish. No matter what kind of companion you have, your family member will be in caring and capable hands with me. I also have several years of experience caring for high-maintenance, special-needs, and senior pets, so I understand the extra attention, patience, and individualized care they may require. Having worked in healthcare for several years as well, I recognize the trust involved in entrusting a loved one to someone new and take that responsibility seriously. Thank you for taking the time to learn a little about me! Please feel free to message me if you’re interested in booking or have any questions—I’d love to see if I’d be a good fit for you and your pet. I work full time during the week, but I am available most days after 4/5pm. I am usually open most weekends without time constraints I regularly rotate walks and runs with my own large, high-energy pups to help keep them active and happy. They eat twice a day and enjoy a mixed diet. My cats require a little less hands-on attention, but they can be higher maintenance due to their asthma and picky eating habits. While this is how I care for my own furry family, I understand that every pet is unique, and I’m always happy to adjust to your pet’s individual needs, routine, and preferences

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was in my 20s. I’ve also taken care of senior dogs, so I know how to handle their special care. I’m very experienced in feeding and grooming, and I love the companionship it brings to a family! I am a stay at home mom, and my husband works from home, so there’s always someone there to watch and play with your fur baby! We always have lots of time for walking and playing throughout the day. I have an extremely safe neighborhood with a little park about a 3 minute walk away, two kids that love playing with dogs, (15 and 8) and an extremely friendly mini goldendoodle!

Nataliia was wonderful! She took the time out of her day to meet with our 3 year old dog to get acquainted. She came to the 1 hour drop in a little early and stayed a little over to ensure that our dog was well taken care of and had everything she needed before leaving. We will definitely be booking with her in the future.

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: I’ve taken care of 2 dogs that I have owned. One was pit bull and the other a mixed breed. Have experience walking dogs and taking care of them at home. Taking care of pets is one of my passions and looking to do this full time. I will be around for pet care 24/7 and happy to help in any ways I can. When taking care of pets in the owners home it will be treated like my own home with the utmost care and respect. They will feel like they’re right at home with you.

About: I have had pets (dogs, cats, horses, fish) since I was a baby. Caring for them feels like a natural task! I have pet sat for many neighbors and friends, and I would love to share some love with your pets as well :) I work as a nurse 3 days a week, so I have 4 days off that I would love to spend with your pets! My schedule changes weekly but I am very flexible with my off days. I love pet parents who know what their pets need. Leave me with simple instructions and I will follow your lead! I love to clean as well, so you won’t have to worry about returning home to a mess.

About: I have had the pleasure and joy of being able to take care of lots of different animals for over 10 years. I spent some time on a farm where taking care of sheep, pigs, chicken, ducks, and the barn cats and dogs was a daily thing. Later on, I was the proud mama of a german shepherd named Bruno who stole my heart in every way. Unfortunately he is now gone since November of 2023. Since then, my lifestyle has changed and I am not able to have another dog of my own due to long working hours four days out of the week. However I love taking care of pets, especially dogs, and this is the perfect way to still have a connection with these wonderful creatures, even if they are not my own :) I promise to take care of yours as if it was my own! They will be royally treated with me! My Fridays through Sundays are free from other work and I would love to be able to take care of your pets, especially your dogs! I have a spacious home where your pet can feel free to roam and rest. I also have many trails I can take them on walks. There is also a spacious park area where we can play around if that's what your dog prefers! If I am coming to your home, I am more than happy to walk them short or long distances, play with them, or tend to any other pet needs!

Kaylie has literally been life saver for us! She has been more than willing to adjust how she does visits to help my puppy deal with separation anxiety, she is very quick to respond, and always leaves a great Rover card with lots of photos so that I can get an update on my puppy during the day.

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.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Kildeer on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 12,030 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Kildeer. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Kildeer stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Kildeer. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% can help with daily exercise

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
