“Rochelle was very professional and effective at taking care of my cat for two weeks while I was on vacation. She genuinely loves cats and they are sure to love her back. I would definitely book her to care for my cat again.”
About: I have taken care of animals for nearly 10 years and have experience with all kinds of dogs, cats, fish, and reptiles. I am a pet owner myself, so I know how important it is to feel that your loved one is in good hands. I am always sure to follow directions closely, and do everything I can to ensure the animals have a safe and enjoyable experience. I'm currently a graduate student and have a pretty flexible schedule. For the summer, I am generally available any morning and evening during the weekday + any time on the weekend. I follow the care instructions, take note of the living area, monitor the animal for any signs of stress or illness, and provide them the attention they need, whether that be playing, petting, or spending quiet time with them.
“Thank you so much!! I appreciate that you took time to meet with Winston prior since he’s nervous around new people. The pups seemed very content when we got back! :)”
“Jana did a great job with looking after our cat, Sook. She was very accommodating with our cat, who suddenly and unexpectedly became unwell. She very kindly looked after him and cleaned up after him, and even came in for an extra visit on short notice when we were really concerned. She gave us lots of updates and pictures and became a real friend to our cat—it seems like he has truly bonded with her. We can’t thank Jana enough for her love and care for our cat!”
“Sydney was amazing. Extremely communicative, helped me out a ton in a bind, exceptionally friendly. My cats are disabled and she was professional and courteous when handling their special needs. Could not of asked for a better sitter. Will be booking again. Thank you so much”
“Ruth dropped in to help with our cats and guinea pigs while we were away for the holiday. She sent a picture each day and provided a good overview of her visit. Would definitely recommend.”
“Michele and Robert go above and beyond. They water our plants, and take out our trash bin, even did some our dishes when we unexpectedly had to travel when a family member died. Our kitties who are usually pretty anxious around strangers have even started letting them pet them when they come over. Communication is easy, and they're always prompt with updates. 10/10”
“Kelly was great with our cat while we were away! She made sure to give our cat lots of love and playtime, and sent updates with great photos everyday to keep us at ease when away!”
“Katrina is warm, communicative, and so great with our dog Crystal. We have asked her to drop in on her on two separate occasions and Chrissy is always well taken care of and happy!”
“Christa looks after our cat and we all love her! She’s been cat sitting for us for years. She takes really cute pics for us too. We can’t say enough good things about Christa!”
“This is our 2nd time having Dave watch our two cats. He is very communicative and sends lots of pictures of our fur babies. One of our cats loves when he visits since that means he is going to get some treats and pets. Plus, he has even managed to have our skittish little girl show herself (a rare occurrence with strangers). Thanks Dave!”
“Irene was great with dropping in on my two cats while I was away on a long work trip. Both my cats are unique, and she understood immediately how to work with their different temperaments. Also, she was able to communicate well with me throughout the 10-days. When I was having issues with the Rover app, she was understanding and helpful and we quickly figured out any issues. I’d recommend Irene and work with her again. Thanks!”
“Bex was such a great first experience using Rover. She kept us connected with photos and messages letting us know how each check in went. She made our first time away from our animals super positive and will definitely use her again! Thanks Bex!”
“Jamie was very reliable and took great care of our cat while we were away. She spent extra time cuddling and playing and always sent pictures. We will absolutely hire her help again!”
“Carla was so great with my dogs, Pepper and Honey! Communication was seamless and she sent adorable photos of my pups every time she visited. I came home to some very happy and well taken care of pups!”
About: My family and I grew up on a farm and I helped watch and agility train my grandmas 6 Welch springer show dogs. At home I have 4 dogs (2 huskies, a German Shepard, and Weimaraner), and 3 kitties ( all rescues and different levels of shyness), so I have experience with lots of types of animals. I also used to care for a snake and bearded dragon! I am currently a full time student but my classes are very spread out, so the longest I am gone for a time is usually 2-3 hours. Our huskies and Weimaraner require lots of attention and play time, so we either go on 2-3 walks a day or one really long run/walk in the morning, but I am flexible to fit your schedule! I also love playing with my cats and making sure they are stimulated every day, (playing different games, switching toys around, building little forts, etc). I also love the company and cuddling up with whoever wants to!
About: My family has had dogs my whole life, and I have loved them just as long. I have experience with puppies, elderly dogs, and everything in between. Size and breed is not a factor when it comes to animals I won’t work with; so long as the dog has a good attitude, I will, too. If you have any questions or special requests, don’t be shy about asking! I want this to be a good experience for you and the furry friend in your life. Please reach out, and let’s start a conversation! I have a flexible lunch hour that I love to fill with a good walk, and open weekends for more involved care! My work hours aren’t standard, so care doesn’t need to be either! I do not have an apartment suitable for caring for your animal(s) in my home, but have experience providing care in clients homes, both overnight and scheduled daily visits.

Lemont cat parents share their Rover experiences
Miri was AMAZING with my two kitty girls! She went above and beyond - took great care of them. She was very communicative & took so many photos (in which the girls looked SO relaxed - my senior cat even came out for visits which is very unusual, sitters rarely see her)! My only complaint is that I wish I had booked her sooner during my time at PSU - she is a fantastic sitter who has her own cats & really has such a good vibe! Thank you Miri!!!! 🫶🏻🐾
We had such a great experience with Carla while we were away. This is the second time we’ve booked her. We have three cats, two who are very skittish and one who requires daily medication, and she handled all of their needs with so much care. It gave us real peace of mind knowing she was attentive, reliable, and gentle with them, especially given their different personalities and needs. We came home to three happy, well-cared-for cats. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and compassionate pet sitter.
She did an amazing job with my two boys while taking my students on a middle school trip to Germany. I received daily updates to let me know medication’s were administered and feeding times were followed, and I got some photos! And when I came home, the cats were nice and soft because they were brushed every day! I will definitely be booking again when leaving town.
Irene did a great job watching our two kittens and adult cat while we were on vacation. She was very attentive, thoughtful, and responsive. She made sure our fur babies were taken care of which allowed us to enjoy our time away with no worries. Thank you Irene!
Emerson was amazing! She took such good care of our pets while we were away. She even came for extra visits to make sure they were adjusting to us being away. She went above and beyond! Our dogs and cat loved being around her. I could not recommend her more!
