About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and currently help care for a French Bulldog, so I’m used to daily walks, feeding, and just keeping them happy and comfortable. I really enjoy being around dogs and getting to know their personalities. I’m patient, responsible, and will treat your dog like my own while you’re away. I am home full time so my schedule is pretty flexible, I’m available mornings, afternoons, and evenings depending on what you need. I also can accept last minute availability! I can work around your pet’s routine and make sure they get plenty of attention, walks, and play time. I always try to make pets feel comfortable and at home, whether I’m in your space or mine. I pay attention to their behavior and needs so they feel safe and relaxed. I’ll stick to your routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, and anything specific your pet needs. I’m patient, gentle, and make sure they’re getting the care and attention they deserve.

About: I started taking care and training dogs when I was 13. My parents rescued my dog Luna when I was 14 and I took care of her every day and trained her, she even understands Spanish! She is the sweetest dog ever but I currently don’t live with her anymore. I also enjoy taking care of kids and I am very patient and confident in my ability to handle anything. I love to teach and I am very passionate about what I do. Once I start something I work hard to become better everyday. I am currently on summer break so I have plenty of free time. I am fully committed to working Monday-Saturday mostly from 8am-9pm. My current schedule is simple. I go to the gym from 9-11:30am and pretty much free the rest of the day. I have a part time job and I work every other week Sat-Sun from 4-10. I have a really flexible schedule so feel free to ask any questions! I would usually take my dog out for her first walk at 8 in the morning. I would take her out for at least 15min and repeat this every 3/4 hours. After her first walk I fed her breakfast, sometimes I’d crack an egg on top or drizzle honey which is great for dogs, and I fed her twice a day. If it was muddy outside I would clean her paws and fur after. I would play with her and teach her new tricks every now and then. If her breath was bad I would brush her teeth at night. I loved cuddling and sleeping with her and I would do everything to make sure she was happy.

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!

About: I have a dog that is 6 and have helped raise a litter of 9 Australian shepherds! I also use to work as a delivery driver so im use to driving around. I am in school and work part time so I tend to be free during the week. I like staying in so I am also available in the weekends! I wake up around 8 to feed a special diet to my dog, she is currently in a diet. Then I walk her before I get ready for the day. I tend to walk her at least 2 times a day but I have a pretty lazy dog. If it’s sunny outside she likes to sunbathe in the back or front yard and doesn’t like walking. I do like getting 10k steps in a day so I tend to just steal my friends dogs and walk around with them.

About: I have pet sit for over 10 years. I can stay in your home or make frequent visits throughout the day. I love going on walks, playing with the dog, and being their best friend! I will send picture updates throughout the day. I am able to give dogs medication if needed. I have had long term clients for years now who keep coming back. I currently have a full time job working in a school but am off during the summer time which gives me more availability to hangout with your pups! I am able to watch pets in their own home or make multiple visits throughout the day, whichever the owner is more comfortable with. I am able to spend the night as well. I send daily pictures to the owner with updates as well throughout the days I am watching the dog.

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.

About: Hi, I'm Sayuj. As a lifelong animal lover, my home has always been filled with paws. After recently saying goodbye to my own sweet dogs, the house has felt incredibly empty. I deeply miss the companionship, the daily routines, and the pure joy a dog brings to a home. Opening my doors to your furry family members is a way for me to keep that passion for pet care alive, and I promise to treat your dog exactly like they were my own. ​Over the years, I've gained a wealth of hands-on experience. I lovingly cared for my Beagle for over 8 years, as well as a beautiful Beagle/Border Collie mix for 6 years. When I first got my dog, Rocky, he wasn't good with people, but I trained him from the ground up to help him become comfortable and trust them. Later, even when he had IVDD, I retaught him how to walk, so I know exactly what it's like working with a dog that needs deep attentiveness. I've also regularly dog-sat for large, energetic breeds, including German Shepherds, Rottweilers, Laboradors, and more! ​Currently, I run my own business and am actively searching for my next full-time role. This means I work from home right here in Woodridge and have a highly flexible schedule to dedicate to your pets. Because my home is currently pet-free, it offers a calm, safe environment where your dog will get my absolute undivided attention for boarding. I am also more than happy to house-sit at your place or drop in for visits. ​I would love nothing more than to shower your dog with the exact same level of devotion, patience, and love I gave my own. I have a very flexible schedule and willing to devote all my time at any given moment to your pet's wants and needs. My daily routine is quite open so I can house sit or drop in to walk the dog, feed them, etc. I am diligent in making sure I follow all the owner's instructions in taking care of their dog. All dogs are different and are used to different things. That's why I want to make them feel at home and treat them as if their owners do. As a lifelong dog owner, I am used to keeping the home "dog-proof" and understand what is dangerous/can be dangerous for a dog and what isn't.

About: I’ve been around/taken care of dogs my whole life. I grew up with four pugs and I now have just one elderly chihuahua. I also help my grandmother care for her multipoo and I never pass up on the opportunity to pet a cute doggy! I am currently home from college for the summer, and have plenty of free time to walk/check in on your pups! I typically free during the days from 11:00am-6:30pm I have my own leash and poop bags which I am able to use for walks, but I am also completely fine with using your own accessories!

About: I have worked for two zoos, 2 emergency clinics and hospitals that focused on cat, dog and exotics from rabbits, guinea pigs, snakes, geckos, tarantulas, ferrets, beardies, chinchillas, fennecs, prairie dogs, birds, axolotls, ect. I have training in senior cat and dog care and animal behavior training as well as vaccine and injection experience. I graduated from Joliet Junior College as a Veterinary Technician and I have petsat many dogs, cats, herps and small mammals. I'm strict with lists and rules and I love playing and giving treats. All animals are my friends including your tarantula! I love working with animals and I love working with pet parents. I have a large reference sheet with people who swear by me and know that their furry (or scalie) family member is in caring, professional, loving hands. If you're looking for a trusted, well rounded, experienced vet tech, then I'm your sitter!! If you don't like leaving your baby home alone, ask me about boarding!! I board ***most*** exotics and cats! (I don't board dogs, birds, aquatics, or larger exotics, please ask me for details) I will talk to you first to make sure my schedule fits into your animals' needs. If my schedule does not match your pets' needs, then I will kindly decline your offer as your pets' needs come before me. I want to see you matched with the best sitter you can find. I will sit for your furry (or scalie) baby at your own home, so your rules are law! If your doggy needs to be crated, I will do that! If your kitty needs insulin shots, I have experience in that! Does your baby need 500 mLs of fluid? You're in the right hands! Does your flowers need to be watered? Tell me what a hydrangea looks like and I will water it!!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Lemont

Frequently asked questions about Rover

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

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 12,420 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Lemont. 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 Lemont 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.

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 Lemont 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 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 dog, 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Lemont with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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.

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.
