“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!!”
“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.”
“Bradlei was quick in her responses to my request and was willing to take my request on such short notice. She asked the right questions and even took notes during our meeting to ensure as little discomfort to kitty as possible while I was out. Her updates were timely and clear, and she took initiative to take care of an unexpected sickness/clean up that we had not discussed beforehand.”
“Caraline is amazing, we were so happy with how she took care of my two cats and are so excited to have her watch them again later this month. She is so patient, always sends photos and updates, follows every care instruction and brings so much peace of mind while traveling or being anxiously away from your pets. Her calm energy and love for animals has even made my extremely timid cat open up and initiate contact and play with her. She left areas cleaner than they were found and was eager to help outside of what was initially asked, including cleaning up cat litter/waste my cats dragged outside of their litter boxes without asking. I definitely recommend her and will be using her as a regular cat sitter!”

“Amanda is always so reliable and helpful. She took great care of our cat this trip and brought our cans back up on trash day. We definitely strongly recommend her!”
“I had such a great experience with Stephanie. She took wonderful care of Tucker and went above and beyond. She made sure he got a walk in even on the coldest of days. She was flexible enough to adjust a drop in time to accommodate my schedule. Tucker was happy, well cared for and comfortable with her. I’d recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring and thoughtful dog sitter.”
“Heather was a phenomenal sitter that sent us cute photos of our little furry friends during a recent vacation. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable & caring pet sitter.”
“Christopher was AMAZING!! He was so thoughtful, caring and thorough with our pets! I felt so comfortable leaving my girls in his care! And his communication was top notch! Highly recommend him!”
“Julie was very professional and sent us pictures as well as detailed information about how her drop in with our dog went! We would definitely reach out to Julie should we need help with our dog in the future!”
“Elyse did a great job watching our cat while we were gone for a week. She was very organized and communicative, and sent plenty of pictures each day that she stopped by. She also gave Cid plenty of attention and was easy to work with”
“Wow! Amanda took such great care with our mature dog. I was apprehensive (no terrified) to have anyone take care of him but we were stuck and she saved the day!!! She was a great communicator, made sure to give him his meds and even gave him a little walk. Amazing!”
“We needed a last minute sitter to come visit our mini dachshunds while we were on vacation and Caroline was great! She made all our check in’s and included pictures every time. Thank you Caroline for looking over our pups while we were away !”
“Our 7 month old puppy can be quite the handful! This was the first time we had to leave him for more than a couple hours and Jessica made us feel very comfortable with leaving him. She was absolutely amazing and kept us updated with how he was doing the whole time. We will definitely use her again!!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Lemont on Rover is $22.34 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 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 July 2026, there are 12,993 sitters on Rover offering Pet 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.
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 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.
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.
