“Absolutely the best sitter Smokey has ever had. Reguarly brushed him, provided fun notes on most days about how he was doing, and performed little bits of going the extra mile each day. I couldn't recommend Saramae enough! I'm very thankful.”
“Chelsea was a perfect fit to check in on my two cats while I was out of town! She took great care of them and the Rover cards are a nice addition to the experience. I will definitely be asking her to come back in the future.”
About: I have taken care of my own yorkies for 17 years and also had friends ask me to babysit their babies and of course my babies relied on me for fresh water, meals, grooming, nail cutting and much more. Outside-never alone, walks, play and especially brushing and petting on my lap. Lots of love I'm retired and home all day, with exceptions of Doc visits. When I am not home Hope stays at the house with any babies that I have in the home. I will be taking the babies out and be with them the entire time they are outside. I will play with them and have them sit in my lap if they choose to. Or anything else the owner would suggest. The babies are allowed on my furniture and to sleep in bed with me if they choose to.
“Anna was great. Very nice. Texted me daily to let me know everything was okay and kitties were well. I didn't want to board them but was hesitant to have someone I didn't know in my home. Anna has resolved that worry. I have trust in Anna and will always use her going forward.”
About: I’m have 2 cats stormy and kitty . They and both indoors but I gave her then option to go outside too. They are very friendly. We do feed other cats bin our neighbors I have 4 bowel of water and food on my porch for them. Always have loved animals and had a caring connection with them. In addition to taking care of our family pets, I have also helped care for family and friends furry friends I work part time and I’m able to do house visits or add a walk in the park in my schedule it no problem. I have a fence yard and I have my own cat kitty she friendly and spray and up to date on shots. I have an area extra bedroom for play time or naps.Our sofa is open for naps too.
“Jessica was very accommodating when our times changed. She took great care with our two dogs and the both loved her. We will definitely use her services again and I would highly recommend her.”
“Madison was able to take care of my cats last minute - she was a huge help! She eased my mind while I was out of town with all the pictures and detailed updates every morning. She was very responsive as well! I came home to filled food and water bowls and a clean cat area AND happy cats!”
“Nicole took wonderful care of our 3 cats, and under the craziest possible circumstances (one senior cat with diabetes needing insulin twice a day, and a juvenile male and female that aren't fixed yet and had to be kept separated). It was half cat sitting and half cat jailer, and through it all Nicole was super friendly and communicative and we came home to 3 happy cats. 10/10, we'll definitely book her again!”
About: I've had the pleasure of growing up in a dog household ever since I was little. I have worked with a number of various breeds but have had the opportunity to raise a German Shepherd as well as my current Australian Shepherd and Blue heeler, who both have plenty of energy. I’ve been blessed with finding a work from home job as an RN and am free most days to help your pup. I took a little break from Rover but am back now that I have a more flexible schedule. Looking to meet your pups and create a consistent schedule ! I have a decent sized fenced backyard that will give your doggo plenty of space to run around with my Australian shepherd dog. I also have space for a crate if they are crate trained.
About: I am a big fan of cats and dogs. I have been privileged to be my family and friends go-to pet sitter for years so I decided to come to Rover. I am comfortable with dogs/cats of all ages, breeds and sizes. I will care for your babies like they are my own.😊 I am currently working part time-but have too much free time. I love animals and am able to do visits, walks, stop-ins etc from 12-6 almost everyday. I can comfortably harness and lead dogs. Feeding/treats are also no problem with any pet. I will gladly groom, clean up per your request as well.
About: Open home with no children or other animals. All sizes of cats and dogs welcome! I hope your baby likes fun and affection because this is the place for it! I've had pets most of my life, and enjoy having happy wagging tails and purrs of contentment nearby. Pet families welcome too! Pet sitting fits seamlessly into my weekly routine, providing a meaningful way to blend responsibility with care. Each visit is thoughtfully scheduled to ensure consistency, creating a sense of comfort and safety for the pets. I prioritize secure environments, always double-checking doors, gates, and feeding instructions to protect their wellbeing. My growing knowledge of animal behavior helps me recognize what each pet needs, whether it’s a calming walk, playtime, or quiet companionship. This attentiveness brings peace of mind to pet owners and happiness to the animals, making pet sitting not just a task, but a fulfilling and trusted part of my week. When caring for a pet in someone else’s home, I prioritize trust and respect in every action I take. I understand that I’m being welcomed into a personal space, and I treat it with the same care and consideration I would expect in return. I follow all instructions closely, from feeding schedules to house rules, to ensure the pet remains comfortable and routines are maintained. I respect the home by keeping it clean and secure, and I always communicate openly with the owners, providing updates for peace of mind. Above all, I build trust by being reliable, thoughtful, and fully focused on the wellbeing of both the pet and the home.
“Ivy was amazing, she booked me last minute when I had to go into the hospital, took amazing care of both my 80lb dogs and walked them even though they are not the easiest walkers LOL. Sent pictures, gave updates and even allowed me to add an extra drop in last minute due to my emergency. I would definitely book with her again. Thank you so much!”
About: I am an avid dog lover and lover of all animals!! We treat our dogs like people, but more importantly they are our family. I will come to your home and watch your babies in the comfort of their own space. I work remote, so I can work from your home. I love all kinds of dogs as long as they don't bite strangers :) I take photos or videos everyday and send them to you, but sometimes I send them to your personal phone and not the app, so it affects my photo rating on here. About this sitter: I am an avid pet lover who works remotely and would love to take care of your furbaby/babies in the convenience of their own home! I can travel anywhere with enough notice. Just let me know! I am quite flexible and would enjoy giving my time and attention to your loved one! Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover since I was a teenager, but really since I was born as I have always been in a house with dogs! I have been volunteering and helping out dogs for the past three decades!
About: Hi! I’m Nicole. I’m a retired professional petsitter/dog walker and have experience with a variety of breeds, sizes, and ages. I’m experienced with giving oral medications, injections, and catering to special dietary needs. I’ve been working from home recently and would love to have some dog friends to keep me company. I’m able to let them out to go potty do some zoomies frequently throughout the day. I have three cats that are used to having new dog visitors regularly. They are ok with dogs that are a little more curious and playful with them. During the day your dog would have the run of the house and at night I keep them with me so the cats can have their time. If I have to go out I keep everyone separated. If your dog has never been around cats before, that’s ok, but scheduling a meet and greet is an absolute must!
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, and they’ve always been a huge part of who I am. From Australian Shepherds and Pit Bulls to little Yorkies, I’ve grown up loving dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. Throughout the years, friends and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their dogs. I’ve also house-sat for family and friends while they were away, staying with their dogs and making sure they felt safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for in their own home. 🐾❤️ My love for animals started at a young age. I began volunteering at animal shelters during middle school and high school, and I’ve continued that passion ever since. For the past four years, I’ve volunteered at the Dearborn Animal Shelter, where I help with events and spend several days a week walking, caring for, and giving attention to the dogs there. I’ve also always loved attending dog-related events throughout the years, including Mutt Strut, now known as Pawchella, along with other dog events throughout the Metro Detroit area. Being around dogs and connecting with other people who share the same love for animals has always been something I genuinely enjoy. One of my favorite things about caring for dogs is getting to know their individual personalities. Whether they’re an energetic puppy, a playful adult, or a sweet senior who needs a little extra patience and attention, I’m happy to meet them where they are and give them the care they need. My experience has given me the opportunity to care for dogs of many different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. I know how much our dogs mean to us—they’re family. My goal is to make sure your pup feels safe, comfortable, happy, and loved while you’re away, while giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I’d be so happy to meet your furry family member and give them the same care and attention I would give my own! 🐶💕 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible work schedule. I’m a nail technician and work Tuesday through Friday, but I make my own schedule, which gives me the flexibility to plan around your pup’s needs. My weekends and Mondays are my days off, so I have plenty of time to spend with your dog, whether that means going for walks, playing, giving them attention, or simply keeping them company. I’m especially available for weekend in-home dog sitting and would be happy to travel to your home and stay with your pup while you’re away. I’m also available for drop-in visits and helping out when you need an extra hand during the day. At the moment, I’m unable to board dogs in my own home because I’m living with family, but I’m more than happy to come to you! I love the idea of caring for dogs in their own environment, where they’re already comfortable and surrounded by the things they know and love. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible for both you and your pup. 🐾💕 When caring for your dog in their home, my biggest priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while you’re away\. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and individual needs, so I always take the time to learn what makes your pup happiest and most comfortable\. I’m happy to follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medications if needed, and plenty of attention and affection\. Whether your dog loves going on long walks, playing with their favorite toys, cuddling on the couch, or simply having someone nearby, I’m there to give them the care and companionship they’re used to\. I also believe that staying in their own home can make being away from their family much easier\. Instead of being somewhere unfamiliar, your pup can stay in the environment they already know and feel comfortable in\. I’ll make sure they receive plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, affection, and one\-on\-one attention throughout my stay\. While you’re away, I’ll also treat your home with the same respect and care I would want someone to show my own\. I’ll keep their space clean, make sure they have fresh food and water, and keep an eye out for anything unusual that may need your attention\. I’m also happy to send you updates, photos, and little check\-ins so you can see how your pup is doing and have peace of mind while you’re away\. Most importantly, I want your dog to feel like they have a friend there with them—not just someone checking a task off a list\. I’ll give them patience, love, attention, and the care they need so they can stay happy and comfortable in the place they call home\. 🐾❤️

“Was a great person to have checking on my cat while I was gone. She gave daily updates along with photos. Always played for a bit and made sure her litter box and food was replenished. Will definitely recruit Gabrielle again when I leave town.”
About: I have been a long term volunteer at multiple shelters. I am also a foster dog mom, every dog is treated as if they are my own. I work from home a few days a week, so I will be near by and ready to play with your pups. I am also free on weekends and nights for any of their needs. I am a patient walker and strong believer in sniff walks, letting the dog take its time soaking up all the good smells while getting necessary exercise.

Briana saved me last minute! She was able to help me with Georgia and she did it with the best attitude. She was so kind, nice, and kept me updated on Georgia. She sent me pics, which I truly appreciate it. It was just so easy to talk to Briana, she really cared about Georgia. Definitely recommend her!!!!
Keana took excellent care of our two cats while we were away for 2 weeks. She made sure their litter was clean, bowls were full, fresh water was always available, and that they had plenty of play and socialization time. She was communicative and sent great photos and videos as updates. We are so grateful for her for all the hard work and would absolutely recommend! Thank you Keana!!
Sherice is a very good sitter, I highly recommend!! She communicates very well with me about how my dogs are doing while she's there. Sherice let's me know if they used the bathroom, played, also if they are acting anxious,excited, or cuddley lol. Sherice is also very prompt, flexible with her & my schedule, & she does very well with my skiddish rescue pitbull. I will be having her drop in on my doggys again!!

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Lincoln Park is $18 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $5 and $25 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
