“I am pretty sure at this point, if I was home and Ash was home, my 3 pups would choose to hang with Ash! They are so much happier and calmer when I get home, and these are 3 terriers! Ash has been so incredible with my senior Yorkie who has been having some mobility issues. I would recommend Ash to anyone looking for a reliable, responsible, caring pet lover.”
“Amanda was extremely conscientious and caring while pet sitting our Golden, Addie!! She sent multiple pictures and updated us in our absence! We knew how much she enjoyed every moment with our dog. Thank you, Amanda!!!”
“Sarah took such great care of my boys while I was away for a long weekend. She checked in with great updates and pictures and followed their routine. I came home to happy pups (and a spotless house!). I will definitely use Sarah for future in-home sitting.”
“Lauren was great! Her text updates and pictures of my fur babies put my mind at ease. I knew my pups were safe and happy in her care while I was away. Would recommend her to anyone in need of a pet sitter!”
About: My parents have a farm with three big dogs and many small ones, I’ve taken care of them many times over the years. I have neighbors and friends reaching out to care for their furry friends while they are out of town. I promise to give your loved furry one the love they would expect on a day to day basis I work from home so if I need to spend the day with your pet I can be there for them as I work! Outside of work hours I can give long walks and tons of play time. If you pet needs extra attention I can provide lots of head pets or give them space if they like to spend their time alone.
“Nancy did a great job watching our dog Atticus! He normally gets very sad when we’re gone, but Nancy made sure he got enough love and attention and he was happy and relaxed. Atticus loved Nancy and even went into the room she stayed in a few times to check if she was still there. She sent frequent updates on his mood, whether he ate, and what they were up to, including sending pictures. We will definitely hire Nancy again!”
About: I’ve had pets my entire life and grew up caring for both cats and dogs. Throughout childhood, my family had a cat and we frequently dog-sat for multiple dogs. In college, I continued pet sitting as a side job and gained even more hands-on experience. I regularly care for friends’ and family’s dogs when they travel. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes, breeds, and ages, and I genuinely love animals. I especially enjoy walking dogs and making sure they get plenty of exercise, attention, and affection. I am available Friday-Sunday. I am work from home Friday, so I can help out during the day, and through the weekend. I am flexible to your schedule! When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping their routine and environment consistent so they feel safe and comfortable. For drop-in visits, I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, and get plenty of attention and playtime (my favorite!). I always check that doors, gates, and crates are secure before and after visits. I am extremely responsible as I have cared for pets my whole life. For walks, I use secure leashes and harnesses as instructed by the owner and stay aware of my surroundings at all times. I avoid unsafe areas, watch closely for other animals, and make sure each walk matches the pet’s energy level and needs. I have experience with all sizes of dogs. I treat every home and pet with respect and care, follow all owner instructions closely, and provide updates so pet parents feel confident their pets are safe and happy. I would love to care for your pet!
“Ashley did a great job watching our puppy in our home for a few hours. He was just neutered and she made sure to follow special care instructions. She sent multiple updates and pictures throughout the day!”
“I had a great experience with Glen as my dog sitter. He was extremely reliable and attentive, especially when it came to administering medication, including eye drops, to my dogs. Not only did he take great care of my dogs, but he also kept the house tidy. I really appreciated how he sent frequent updates and pictures of my dogs, which put my mind at ease while I was away. I would highly recommend Glen to anyone in need of a trustworthy and caring dog sitter.”
About: I have been around dogs my entire life, starting when my mom and I rescued a Corgi when I was ten years old. In College, I adopted a German/ Sheppard Pit Bull Mix named ACE and he taught me a lot about taking care of animals on my own and growing as a human being. Not just walks, but attention, exercise, discipline, and sacrifice 24/7. I am a genuine, reliable person that has a lot of free time as a hockey broadcaster in my summers and I want to help you take care of your dog in a loving, reliable, and most importantly flexible way for you or your family. I live in Naperville, IL and willing to accommodate close to 10 miles:) I Only work weekends, so I can work through the week! Sundays are also a good day for me too usually, I am a sports broadcaster so I have weird hours haha but free a lot in the summer :) Big walking guy, with trails and local suburb paths for us. Water is always out, and toys and calm music if need be. Treats and fun always.
“Maria did a wonderful job taking care of Hazel and my two cats. She sent lots of pictures and daily updates, which allowed me to enjoy my vacation and not worry about my pets. Thank you!!”
“Leeann was wonderful with Mia and Pio! She came on time and cared for them as if they were her own. She sent photos through the day and communicated as requested. Both Mila and Pio were in great spirits when I came home. They took several walks and played puzzles. I’d highly recommend Lee to watch your pets!”
About: I’ve taken care of my friends dogs before and I have two dogs of my own that I watch when my parents are out of town as well as our cat too. I have a way that animals always love em even if they aren’t big with other people. I am currently a full time college student with only one in person class. Classes end latter this month. I always work part time in retail and umpire baseball games on the weekends. I’m typically at my retail job for about 4 hours and I umpire weekends for about 6 hours I have a fenced in yard and my dogs love to run around out there. I also love to take my dogs on walks when i can. I also have a cat that I try to take out when the weather is nice and let him roam in the sun.
“Amanda was so incredible to work with! So responsive, sweet, caring and asked questions to ensure we were comfortable heading into her watching the dogs! She watched both of our dogs during our wedding weekend for us and went above and beyond by helping get them to our ceremony! I cannot recommend Amanda enough and she will definitely be watching our pups again for us!!!!”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 12 and have had dogs of my own since I was 4. I have experience with dog socialization including working with local humane societies and volunteering for 4 Paws 4 Ability, where I trained service dogs in training. I have experience with many breeds of all ages and am comfortable handling medication if needed. I will have plenty of time to take care of pups this summer as I just graduated college and am waiting to find employment! I am available to stop in to let your pup out or take them for a walk when you need if I’m in town! My top priority is making sure your dog or cat gets the love and care they need. As a pet owner, I know you expect someone who is qualified, reliable, and will put your babies first!
About: As a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet caregiver, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I understand that every dog has a unique personality, so I tailor walks, playtime, and care to meet their individual needs. Whether your pet loves adventures, belly rubs, or a quiet companion, I provide dependable, attentive care that helps them feel safe and happy while you're away. My goal is to give you peace of mind and your pet a fun, loving experience filled with plenty of attention and affection. As a high school teacher, I have a reliable schedule and enjoy spending my free time caring for animals. During the school year, I am available after school, evenings, weekends, holidays, and school breaks. In the summer, I have a very flexible schedule with plenty of availability for walks, drop-in visits, daycare, and overnight care. This flexibility allows me to provide pets with the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I provide a calm, loving, and secure environment where pets can feel relaxed and at home while you're away. With years of experience caring for animals, you can trust that your furry family member will receive attentive care, plenty of affection, and close supervision.
About: I have hands-on experience caring for my own three dogs, including two Mastiffs and one Maltese. Caring for dogs with such different sizes, personalities, and needs has taught me how to adapt to each pet’s unique routine and temperament. From daily walks, feeding, grooming, playtime, and basic training to providing lots of love and attention, I understand the responsibility that comes with caring for pets. Friends and family have also trusted me to watch their pets, and I always treat every animal as if they were my own. As a nursing student with a strict schedule, I plan my time carefully to ensure pets receive the attention and care they deserve. I am available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week and on weekends. Whether your pet needs playtime, exercise, feeding, or companionship, I will make sure they feel loved and cared for while you’re away. As the owner of two Mastiffs and a Maltese, I am comfortable handling both large and small breeds. I understand the importance of maintaining routines, monitoring behavior, and creating a safe environment for every pet. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and special needs. My goal is to ensure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lisle
Fantastic sitter! Our cat took to Sandra immediately, which says a lot. She handled a challenging assignment that included administering multiple medications twice a day with great care and confidence. Communication was excellent throughout, she was always reliable and on time, and she has a genuinely wonderful personality. We would happily book Sandra again and highly recommend her!
Leila watched our dog Weston over the holiday weekend and he had the best time!! She was very quick to answer our booking request and made everything so so easy! Immediately felt very comfortable leaving our pup with her. Will absolutely be using her again in the future and I would highly recommend booking her.
Ash was an excellent sitter for Stella! Stella was having some stomach issues when we left, Ash followed directions, Stella’s issues resolved in a few days. When storms & 4th of July noises started, Ash gave calming supplement without being asked. I was very impressed - very responsible, updates everyday, pictures every day. Kept her out of the heat, knowing she didn’t tolerate warm weather well. I would definitely ask her back to watch Stella.
Sarah house sat for both of my dogs for about a week. She was so reliable and followed their routine easily. She communicated daily, and it eased my nerves to know they were in good hands. Sarah left my house spotless and my dogs did really well while I was away. I will certainly be using Sarah’s house sitting service again. She is such a professional. Thank you again, Sarah!
Leeann was wonderful with Mia and Pio! She came on time and cared for them as if they were her own. She sent photos through the day and communicated as requested. Both Mila and Pio were in great spirits when I came home. They took several walks and played puzzles. I’d highly recommend Lee to watch your pets!
Josh recently house sat our dog Lio. It's safe to say that Lio would likely abandon us to go live with Josh! Josh provided us with daily photo/video updates, demonstrating how well they were getting on. It is obvious that he loves animals! Furthermore, he was extremely neat, and left our home cleaner than we did. Leaving a note was a nice touch. We hope that Josh will help us out again!
Liz is great with Dottie. She communicates well through the day, brought in my amazon package, kept the house how she left it, and most importantly cared for Dottie. I got pictures of them lounging on the couch while Dottie got belly rubs, and she also took her for a walk. I would recommend Liz!
Hayley was nothing short of fantastic with our Sophie. Hayley treated her the same way we treat her -and with love & concern. Even our next door neighbors thought Hayley was superb. (When your neighbors like your sitter, you've got a true champion. Perhaps the best way to describe how our Sophie thought about Hayley is, when we got home, Sophie seemed to say, "Hi, guys. Is Hayley coming back?" You just can't complain about someone that gets that type of response from your pet.

FAQs for House Sitting - Lisle
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Lisle on Rover is $60.5 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 8,375 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lisle. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Lisle walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Lisle maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Lisle 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lisle. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
