“We couldn't be happier with Audrey. She was professional, courteous and friendly. She's clearly got a lot of experience. She knew what questions to ask and made good notes. She took care of my cats and socialized with them. When I got home they were relaxed, happy and safe. What more could I have asked for?”
“Christine took good care of my finicky felinesfor a few days when I was out b of town. As this was the first time I used her services and Rover, I’m pleased with how everything went. Will be using her again in the future.”
“Stephanie was fantastic! She was flexible with the schedule and so good with our boys! She sent great photos and updates; it really set our minds at ease knowing she’d be there to take care of their daily needs. The cats were in great spirits when we got back and I know they were happy to have her check in on them while we were away. 10/10 would recommend 🙌🏻”
“Ellie was fantastic and did so well with our kitties. They warmed up to her so much quicker than they normally do with strangers. She made sure to play with them to get their energy out and gave very thorough updates everyday. I would definitely recommend her if you want someone who passes the kitty vibe check.”
“Gabrielle did such an amazing job with our anxious attachment kitty! Our cat tends to not eat when we are not there, but Gabrielle's visits made our cat feel calm and supported. All her food was eaten! Our cat showed no signs of sadness or anxiety upon our return. Thank you, Gabrielle!”
“Kiki is a professional in communicating with different animals, including cats. She showed all the love and care to my cat. I am very glad that I found Kiki. I have already become a happy regular client!”
“We recently moved to Northern Illinois from downstate and were nervous about leaving our older cat overnight. As soon as we met Nicole, those fears vanished. Nicole clearly has a natural gift in working with animals. Our female cat trusted her immediately. Nicole communicated with us appropriately, followed our instructions, and made a new friend in Grace. We had a wonderful weekend away. Thank you, Nicole!”
“Great job sitting for my little cat! I got many pics of her playing around and enjoying herself—Nyx took very quickly to her company. Almost seemed like she was disappointed to see me and not Sarah. Very communicative both for setup and during the visit, made everything easy.”
About: I currently have a cat of my own -Ozzy- and have cared for him for the past three years, giving me a lot of experience with feeding, keeping routines, playtime, litter box care, and paying attention to changes in behavior or mood. I previously worked at a pet store where I helped care for shelter cats up for adoption. This gave me the opportunity to work with cats with different personalities and comfort levels and taught me the importance of patience and letting each animal come to you at their own pace. In anddition, I’ve also cared for my neighbors' pets over the years, including cats, dogs, birds and rabbits while they were away. I grew up with dogs and have experience walking and caring for them, as well as growing up with hamsters and birds. While I'm not comfortable handling birds directly, I'm happy to help with basic care such as feeding and cage cleaning. Working late? I’ve got you! I work a full time office job, so my most reliable weekday availability is early mornings for check-in visits and after 4 pm for dog walks and check-ins. Rain or snow? No problem! I’m happy to get outside for your dog’s walk as long as conditions are safe for both me and your pup! I’m also available Saturday/Sunday mornings and afternoons, with evenings varying from week to week. Feel free to reach out even if your schedule doesn’t perfectly match my usual availability as I’m happy to see if we can make it work. For weekday mornings or earlier afternoon visits, I may be able to accommodate requests with a few days notice depending on the location. I’m especially flexible around the Downers Grove area. My goal is to find a schedule that works for both of us and, most importantly, keeps your pet happy and well cared for. I know how important our pets are to us, and I want you to feel confident that yours is in caring, dependable hands while you're away. I'm a calm and attentive caregiver who takes the time to learn each pet's individual personality, routine, and needs. For check-in visits, I can provide fresh food and water, litter box cleaning, playtime, and oral medication (pills only—no injections). I’ll also send you a photo and update during each visit so you know how your pet is doing. I’m mindful that I’m also a guest in your home. I clean up after myself, keep your pet’s food, toys, and supplies where they belong, and leave things as I found them. I believe clear communication is an important part of building trust, so I’ll follow your instructions carefully and let you know if I notice anything unusual with your pet. At this time, I offer check-in visits and dog walking rather than boarding.
About: I will love your pets the same way you do! I have years of experience of caring for dogs over multiple weeks. I also watched a friend's husky for over a year while she was out of the country. I work full time during the week but I will be available to provide overnight care Friday nights- Sunday evenings. For special circumstances outside of this, please don't hesitate to message me. You can also call me Rachel - my middle name that everyone knows me by! I don't currently offer pet sitting in my home, but am more than willing to adjust to your preferences in your home. Feel free to send me a message!
About: I like to think I adapt to the cats needs rather than be impatient and try to pet or carry a pet that’s clearly not comfortable with a stranger yet I have my morning free up until 2pm so getting a head start from 6 or 7am is no big deal to me. We can work together if this schedule suits you, My home carries many cat toys and scratch posts. My cats have their water and food in an easily accessible area. No toxic chemicals or plants are in my home
About: My Name is Evie and I am 22 years old. I have my Cat Minerva for 2.5 years and live with my roomate who has 2 cats as well. I have experience taking care of small animals such as Guinea pigs and Hamsters in the past. I have care experience for both Cats and Small Dogs too. My family and friends have on Occassion trusted me to take care of their cats in my care to make sure they get water, food, and lots of playtime while they had to be on vacation, or visit family relatives in those times. I Do not Work Currently due to my Seizures and Disability. However, I do have to be Considerate of my Roomate's Schedule since He does work part time himself and is Working Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sundays. He is off Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays since his Scheduele Varies if he has to drive me to check in on your pups, kittens, or small animals to make sure they have everything they need or if you have a small dog that needs to be taken for a small walk since I cannot drive myself depending on how far away I am to check on your furry companions or walk them. For Check Ins on Your Pets, I will make sure they have food, water, and Clean litter box, and or if they need to be taken out to use the bathroom if needed.
About: Animals have been a central part of my life for as long as I can remember, but English Bulldogs hold a special place in my heart. I trained and raised my own English Bulldog for 9 years, who grew into a special needs senior: blind in his later years and on multiple daily medications. Loving him through every stage taught me what bulldog parents already know: these dogs are one of a kind, and they need a sitter who understands them. Bulldogs aren't just low-maintenance couch potatoes, and I know the details that make the difference. I understand their stubbornness, heat sensitivities, and breathing issues. I stay on top of daily wrinkle cleaning and regular ear checks to prevent irritation and infections, and I'm happy to apply nose butter and follow your dog's grooming routine if needed. I also have the patience to work with a stubborn bulldog mood. Managing multiple daily medications and caring for a blind senior dog taught me to be organized, gentle, and attentive to any changes in routine, appetite, or behavior. My experience goes well beyond loving animals. I've worked at both a pet store and a local animal hospital, where I cared for a variety of animals, cleaned enclosures and kennels, maintained a sanitary environment, tracked food intake and behavior, and administered medications. Working alongside veterinary teams taught me to notice small changes and flag concerns early, so every animal in my care is safe, comfortable, and closely monitored. Don't have a bulldog? Don't worry! I've had years of experience caring for dogs of many breeds, plus cats, small animals, aquatic pets, and more, and I've provided trusted in-home pet care for neighbors and family members. Whether your pup is a personable bulldog like mine, or any other beloved companion, under my care they won't just be looked after. They'll be understood, loved, and treated like family. A recent Elmhurst University graduate, I currently have a flexible, full-time availability to dedicate to pet care, meaning your pets get my full attention and availability any day of the week. When I visit your home, my top priority is making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and as stress-free as possible in their own environment. I know that unfamiliar faces can be an adjustment for some animals, so I always take a calm, patient approach and let your pet set the pace when it comes to warming up. During drop-ins, I'll follow your routines closely: feeding schedules, medications, behavioral notes, and any specific preferences you've set for your pet. I treat your home with the same respect and care I'd want shown in my own. Everything will be left exactly as I found it. For dog walks, I keep a close eye on body language and surroundings at all times, keeping walks safe and enjoyable. I'm experienced in handling dogs with different temperaments and energy levels, and I'll always make sure your pup is secure before heading out. I'm also happy to provide updates, photos, and notes after every visit so you always know how your pet is doing, because peace of mind for you is just as important as good care for them!
About: I've had pets my whole life and grew up caring for all kinds of animals, my family even keeps chickens, so I'm no stranger to that either. My experience has given me a real love for animal care, especially dogs. My family has four dogs at home, and they're truly part of the family. Their care and happiness mean a lot to me. Pet care is a natural part of my everyday life. With four dogs of my own, I'm used to a routine of morning walks, feeding times, and playtime built right into my day. I make sure there's always time set aside for exercise, attention, and just being present with them, whether that's a walk around the neighborhood, some backyard playtime, or simply relaxing together at home. Caring for animals isn't an extra task for me, it's just part of how my day naturally flows. In my home, my four dogs have a regular routine of feeding, walks, and playtime, with plenty of individual attention along the way. In a client's home, I stick closely to their usual routine and keep owners updated with photos so they know their pet is well cared for.
“Destiny is the best!! She takes care of our cats as if they're her own and leaves us so much more relaxed on travel when we're away from them. Couldn't be happier to have such an incredible sitter!”
About: I’ve grown up always around animals. Whether they were mine, my grandparents, or a friends. I have a lot of experience taking care of cats and dogs emotionally and physically. I also volunteered to a few animal shelters to learn how to properly take care of both cats and dogs. I normally work midnight until around 2-4 am. So I’m available the rest of the day to take care of your pets. I’m on a rotating shift so essentially I’m available everyday all day for anyone in need for pet care. There’s also times of the month I’m available all week for anyone who plans to take a vacation out of state for a week. I’ll be available to make sure your pets can also relax until you guys come back. In both my home and the client's, I will make sure all of the pets needs are taken care of. Whether that be: entertainment, training, or food.
About: I have a bachelor’s degree in Animal Science from the University of Illinois. My education helped build a foundation and understanding of animal welfare, behavior, nutrition, and safe animal handling. I have over two years of professional experience training dogs in basic on-leash obedience, including heel, sit, stay, place, recall, and other foundational commands. I was trained by master trainer Joel Slaven, who has trained animals for movies, SeaWorld, Busch Gardens, and worked extensively alongside Jack Hanna. In addition to dog training, I have worked as a Kennel Technician, where I helped care for up to 50 dogs at a time. My responsibilities included feeding, administering oral and subcutaneous medications, and providing daily exercise through walks and free running in a large pasture. This experience gave me the opportunity to work with a wide variety of breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I also have experience working at a dog daycare, where I supervised playgroups of 25 or more dogs and learned how to manage different personalities and energy levels in a group setting. Outside of my professional experience, I own a two-year-old English Bulldog. Her stubborn personality and high energy have taught me a great deal about patience, consistency, and adapting my approach to each individual dog. Overall, my experience has strengthened my passion for working with dogs and my commitment to providing them with patient, knowledgeable, and compassionate care. I have an open and flexible schedule, which allows me to provide dog walks/or home visits in the early morning, throughout the day and into the evening. I am happy to work around you and your pets schedule to provide dependable great care. While I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I will treat each animal as if they were my own, giving them love, patience, attention, and dependable care while following their normal routines.
“Sophia was awesome! She took great care of our dog and gave him lots of extra love. She was also able to give him a few extra medications that we didn’t originally anticipate & was a great and quick communicator. Highly recommend and we hope to have Sophia back again for pet care!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Lisle
Ash went above and beyond when I went out of town this past weekend. I had to leave my cat Simon at home and I was worried that he would not be getting his medication for an ear infection. Ash informed me that she administers medication when needed. Simon has been dong great since I arrived home and I was relieved to know that there was no break in getting his medicine. As always, I highly recommend Ash as a pet sitter!
Joan is the best! We are so confident that our animals are well taken care of. It allows us to take a vacation knowing everything at home is taken care of. And lastly she goes up and beyond by treating your animal as if it was her own. I have used Joan 4 x now. You should too
Audrey is the best Rover sitter we’ve had the pleasure of working with! She took the time to get to know our cats’ different personalities and often stayed longer than the amount of time we booked for. She provided extremely detailed updates with photos and videos of our cats while we were away, which we greatly appreciated. Thank you again, Audrey! We highly recommend her for your Rover needs.
This is the first time we were using Rover and we had a great experience with Peyton. She was reliable, caring, and took wonderful care of our 2 cats during drop-in visit. We really appreciated the updates and peace of mind knowing our cats were in good hands. Would definitely recommend her!
I have used Cristl exclusively to care for my cats while I’ve traveled, and she has provided them excellent care each time! Each cat eats different food, and one cat is medicated, so there are a lot of directions for her to follow! She never missed a beat. She communicates well after each visit and spends sufficient time to ensure my kitties have had some company while we are away. I highly recommend Cristl!

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 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 Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
