“Margaret is the best the sitter I've come across on this app. So attentive and keeps me updated. Such a peace of mind to have someone like her watching my babies. 100% recommend.”
“We had setup a different sitter to check in on Malla but they cancelled 4 days before my fiance and I's wedding. Julie replied very quickly the same day, did a meet and greet the next day, and easily adjusted to some last minute instruction changes. She gave plenty of pictures, a detailed update when she left, and made it so we had one less thing to worry about on our big day. THANK YOU”
“I cannot express how wonderful it is to have Heather watch our 4 boys while we are away. She is easy to communicate with and takes great photos of our boys. I love that we have someone we can trust check in on them. 100 % will book her again and would recommend her to anyone !”
“Charlotte was a wonderful sitter and made me feel so comfortable throughout my trip away from my babies (w cats)! Will be booking again the next time I’m away.”

“Amanda watched our cat for the first while we were gone for the holiday she did such a wonderful job with her. She played with her and followed all the directions perfectly! Amanda was so kind to bring our mail in as well and offered to take our garbage cans. We appreciate her making us feel comfortable leaving her alone. We will definitely be using her service again!”
“Stephanie is so great! She’s prompt, communicates well, and most of all loves my pups. She took great care of them and sent lots of pics. You can’t put a price on trust and kindness and Stephanie is above and beyond!”
“Anna has been amazing to coordinate with and scheduling drop in visits on our 4 month old puppy during our long work days. She is excellent with communicating with us and has made us feel completely safe with entrusting the care of our puppy to her. We will continue to use Anna for our future pet care needs.”

About: I’m a passionate and reliable pet lover with years of hands on experience caring for dogs of all ages and needs. I’ve had four dogs of my own, including my current puppy, so I understand the energy, attention, and patience that younger dogs require. I’ve also cared for two senior dogs with health issues, which taught me how to provide gentle, attentive care and manage more complex needs with compassion. In addition to caring for my own pets, I've cared for pets of neighbors, friends and friends of friends! I’m comfortable following specific routines, administering basic care, and making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Whether your dog needs a fun walk, extra playtime, or calm, attentive care, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m dependable, communicative, and truly enjoy spending time with animals of all personalities and energy levels! *I also have years of experience with a variety of other animals including crested geckos, bearded dragons, hamsters, guinea pigs, axolotls, African clawed frogs and a variety of fish. If you're looking for small pet care feel free to shoot me a message as well! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, especially during the summer when I’m home from college and able to make it my main focus. I have a very flexible schedule and can plan my day around each pet’s specific needs, whether that’s regular walks, feeding times, play sessions, or check ins. Because this is my primary commitment over the summer, I’m able to give pets plenty of attention, stay consistent with their routines, and be available for a variety of times throughout the day. I prioritize reliability and communication, so you can feel confident your pet is getting the care and attention they deserve. I tailor my care to each pet’s routine and needs to make them feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible. In a client’s home, I stick closely to your pet’s normal schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest, so they can stay in a familiar environment. I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, while also keeping their space clean and secure. Across all services, I focus on clear communication, dependability, and treating every pet like my own, whether that means energetic playtime for puppies or gentle, attentive care for senior dogs.
“Shelby is so good with our Tug who is a sweet but anxious dog. Shelby stayed with Tug a few weeks ago for a week and he has become fond of her. Today he remembered her and welcomed her back. He jumped right into her lap!! We are so pleased with the way Shelby takes care of Tug and our house. Thank you Shelby!!”
About: Cat owner with two cats experienced in feeding with special diets, litter care, and administering oral medications. Comfortable with shy, playful, or senior pets, providing calm, attentive, reliable in-home care. I also have a medium size pet stroller for cats (or dogs) who like the fresh air but aren’t too interested in walking! My schedule is pretty flexible allowing me to work from home when needed. I’m able to provide pet care, cuddles, feedings, walks, etc during the day and evenings I’m more than happy to meet up with first time clients and their pets to see if we’re a good match before initial sitting. If you’re pressed for time and can’t meet up, please be sure to send me detailed instructions. Photo references help too! Let me know about any special diet, medication, quirks, favorite toys, and favorite spots for walks. Anything else you can think of let me know! I want to do my best to ensure your pet feels comfortable when I stop in. And yes I’ll send you pics of your baby while you’re away!
“Ann is so kind. She’s able to help my boyfriend and I out on a weekly basis when we have work conflicts. We are new to the area so she has been extremely helpful in our work/life transition. She has never failed to be there for our pups to let them out and give them love. Wonderful woman!”
About: With 20 years of hands-on experience and a genuinely kind approach to all animals, I treat every pet like family—patiently, gently, and with real understanding. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine—I have a flexible schedule and wide availability, so I can accommodate early afternoon, midday, evening, and last-minute requests. For drop-in visits and walks, I focus on keeping pets comfortable and sticking closely to their usual routine. During check-ins, I make sure they’re fed, have fresh water, get plenty of attention, and any litter boxes or potty areas are clean. For walks, I provide safe, engaging exercise tailored to your dog’s energy level. I always prioritize safety, patience, and kindness so your pet feels secure and cared for while you’re away. I do not take client pets into any body of water outside of standard bathing services unless it has been specifically requested and approved in advance.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Lemont
This was my first time getting help from someone on Rover and it was fabulous. Margaret took such good care of our cats and sent regular reports on how things went. Even our cat who is afraid of most people came out when she stopped in—so she clearly has a way with animals! I will definitely rely on Margaret for future trips!

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 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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.
