“Jo’Ell is amazing with our puppy! First and foremost, she is always on time and always communicates with us about our puppy. She provides several photos and engages with our puppy. The best is that she brings over different toys and puzzles to help our puppy learn and stimulate their brain. I could not ask for a better person to help us with our dog. Thank you so much.”

About: Animals have been part of my life since childhood. I grew up with anywhere from one to six dogs at a time—often larger dogs weighing 50–100 pounds—along with cats and other pets. In my family, caring for animals meant taking responsibility for their daily needs, and that lesson stayed with me. I worked at a veterinary clinic for three years during high school, primarily in reception, with additional experience helping with kennel feeding, cleaning, and bathing. I also volunteered with the Humane Society of Aurora, mainly walking dogs and giving them time to play and enjoy attention outside their kennels. My own dog, Taylor Mae—Tay—is a senior mixed breed who has taught me so much about patient, attentive care. Managing her pancreatitis, dietary restrictions, medications, and surgical recovery has made me especially mindful of following care instructions and noticing changes. I’ve also worked with a behaviorist on her leash reactivity. My strongest qualities are patience and dependability. I give animals time to get comfortable, pay attention to their body language, and take their individual routines seriously. Whether your pet needs a good walk, a quiet visit, or a little extra patience, I want them to feel safe and cared for—and you to feel informed and at ease. I’m focusing on local dog walks and drop-in visits in and around Four Lakes. Please check my calendar for current availability. We’ll confirm the timing and care your pet needs before booking, especially for recurring visits or time-sensitive medications. I start by learning your pet’s routine, temperament, triggers, dietary restrictions, and care instructions. I never give food or treats without owner approval. On walks, I pay close attention to body language and our surroundings, creating distance or changing direction when a dog needs more space. My experience with my own reactive dog has taught me the value of anticipation, patience, and avoiding unnecessary pressure. For pets with reactivity or additional care needs, we’ll discuss their history and meet before confirming that we’re a good fit. In your home, I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, water, medications, litter care, and securing doors and gates. You can expect updates and photos, along with communication about anything unusual I notice.

“Amanda did a wonderful job caring for our 2 senior cats while we were on vacation! One of our cats is diabetic and requires insulin shots, so we were happy that Amanda was able to accommodate our cat’s feeding and injection schedule. Amanda is very kind and communicative, and we would recommend her to anyone looking for a local pet-sitter!”

About: I have worked for two zoos, 2 emergency clinics and hospitals that focused on cat, dog and exotics from rabbits, guinea pigs, snakes, geckos, tarantulas, ferrets, beardies, chinchillas, fennecs, prairie dogs, birds, axolotls, ect. I have training in senior cat and dog care and animal behavior training as well as vaccine and injection experience. I graduated from Joliet Junior College as a Veterinary Technician and I have petsat many dogs, cats, herps and small mammals. I'm strict with lists and rules and I love playing and giving treats. All animals are my friends including your tarantula! I love working with animals and I love working with pet parents. I have a large reference sheet with people who swear by me and know that their furry (or scalie) family member is in caring, professional, loving hands. If you're looking for a trusted, well rounded, experienced vet tech, then I'm your sitter!! If you don't like leaving your baby home alone, ask me about boarding!! I board ***most*** exotics and cats! (I don't board dogs, birds, aquatics, or larger exotics, please ask me for details) I will talk to you first to make sure my schedule fits into your animals' needs. If my schedule does not match your pets' needs, then I will kindly decline your offer as your pets' needs come before me. I want to see you matched with the best sitter you can find. I will sit for your furry (or scalie) baby at your own home, so your rules are law! If your doggy needs to be crated, I will do that! If your kitty needs insulin shots, I have experience in that! Does your baby need 500 mLs of fluid? You're in the right hands! Does your flowers need to be watered? Tell me what a hydrangea looks like and I will water it!!

About: FIRST TIME CLIENTS*** Promo Code JORGEO48519 Hello, my name is Jay Ortiz and thank you for visiting my page! I love making every animal's day more memorable than the last. I am available in the rain, snow or shine and have 12+ years of animal care experience. Love is the key ingredient in every animals life & I make sure to treat each one as my own. Spoiling animals with a toy or treat is one of my favorite things to do. Training them for some fun family tricks is another great exercise I like to incorporate during playtime. Not every dog is the same, if your boy/girl is a calm, sweet pup that likes to just chill through the day no problem! While Zero (my dog) and I love to be active, we know how to rest as well. Not only will there be a large fenced yard to run & play in, but a public park is only a walk away, included with a scenic lake, which is great for casual strolls or healthy exercise! I have been fostering and taking care of dogs and cats since I was 16 years old. I have trained them myself with much success. I am a Marine veteran that has experience working with service dogs and know how to read body language and attend to your pet as needed. From sneaky ferrets, bubbling fish, trouble making cats, to energetic dogs, I am positive I can bring the best experience to you & your fluffy pals. After all, I think we could agree we treat them just as our actual children (haha)! I am generally pretty flexible when scheduling. Please message me for details. I look forward to building a relationship with you & your wonderful animals soon! *Special notes: ------------ - Meet & Greets are required unless specific events prevent so. This is important for me so we can get to know each other and your pet better. -Meet & Greets must be scheduled immediately when requesting a booking and take place that same week. -Booking requests must be confirmed or cancelled after each Meet and Greet. -Please note that Day Care Rates will be added for your pet’s extended stay (for boarding) or your late day arrival (for house-sitting) should the pick up or you’re arrival time go beyond 12:00pm on the last day of service. -Additional rates ($10/ hour) will apply to Doggy Day Care services when pick up time is beyond 7:00pm and before 11:30pm. Pick up time past 11:30pm will result in an added boarding fee. *The $10/hour additional fee will be waived when Doggy Day Care service starts no earlier than 5:00pm and ends no later than 9:30pm* »»--------------------------------♡--------------------------------«« With me, taking care of your fluffy cuties and helping your family is my full-time job. You and your family’s comfort and safety is my #1 priority as I aim to only give the highest quality of pet service. My weeks vary every month as I take care of new clients, repeat clients, Rover clients and Private clients each week. Whether you need repeat service or spontaneous visits, my goal is to be their for you and your fur babies 24/7, 365 days a year. I have a large fenced yard for any energetic pup to play in, along with a beautiful public park for your dog to explore. Not only will your pet have a vast landscape to have fun in but I also have a dog lounge equipped with a couch only used for dogs, mood lighting, treats, baskets of toys and much more! We do share the bed if your dog loves cuddles (we love them too!) and treat every fluffy client as my very own. For Away Services (such as house sitting) all the tender love and care is brought right to your door. Going for walks in your surrounding area, training, movies and fun are a must during each of my stays. After all, every cute dog deserves rest after a fun day! While pet sitting, if your pet is a high energy ball of fun I understand that that level of energy needs to be addressed with walks and play. I live right next to the park district and the neighborhood is an ideal location. I will attend to your pet strictly as required upon your instructions. Water will be accessible throughout their stay. Walk, run and play time will be conducted safely at the energy level displayed by your pet. I wouldn't want someone to make me run just because they want me to be tired later. Just like ourselves, our pets should be happy about exercising! I have multiple crates and if requested I can help potty train! My dog Zero is a rescue and he is a super sweet guy. He loves meeting new dogs and playing with the tug rope. He is a great companion on a run and can show others how to walk, run and play while following their leader. Environment: Very spacious, clean and friendly! **My girlfriend Taylor G., is also a Rover Sitter, so there may be other pets in our home while I'm watching your pet(s). If this happens, I'll absolutely notify you before our booking begins!

About: As far as I remember myself, I always had a cat in my house. From childhood I wanted to become a veterinarian and although I’ve gotten a different degree, my passion for animals never went away. I have a cat of my own, have work experience from a dog and cat daycare center, and experience from volunteering in Humane Society, so I know what kind of a care a pet deserves. Additionally, I took safety training at the pet daycare center, which thought me how to handle myself with cats and dogs in the best way. I am working part-time and have most days available for taking care of your pets! Usually I’m available every day in early mornings and after 5 pm, and any time on Fridays and weekends For boarding, I have a spacious home with a fenced backyard if you desire your cats to take a stroll and I know how to safely take you dog on a walk!

About: As someone who’s loved my cats and dogs as part of my family, I will go above and beyond to take great care of your pet! My years of volunteering at an animal shelter have given me experience with cats and dogs of all ages with various temperaments and medical needs. Whether I’m taking your dog for a walk around the neighborhood or checking in on your cat at home, I’ll treat your pets with the love and care I’ve given to my own over the years. No matter what service you’re looking for, I’d love to send photo and text updates so you can feel confident your pet is safe and cared for.

I will always make sure they have been fed, walked, and whatever special requests the owner has. I work full time so I’m mostly looking for stuff do on weekends or evenings right now. I’m looking forward to meeting your pets and helping give them the care they need! I will not be able to keep pets in my apartment, but I will try to be as consistent with your schedule as possible so your pets can feel more stable as long as you’re gone.

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!

I just can’t praise enough of this lady. She has been watching over my babies for a while and I never ever had issues with Joan. She was with us as we lost one of our dogs and gave extra care to the ones left. She came through again for us and I am so grateful to her for her love and care for our babies. She is truly the best I’ve ever had. No worries whatsoever with Joan!!

My scheduled dog sitter canceled on me pretty last minute and Kaitlyn really was a life saver. She showed up on time and was so sweet to Caesar from the get go. Incredibly professional and incredibly communicative without being overkill. Sent me plenty of pictures of my boy and I could tell she gave him all the attention he deserves. 10/10 would recommend and would book again

Audrey is the best Rover sitter we’ve had the pleasure of working with!

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.

We have used Tori twice now for extended periods, and we couldn’t be happier. Caring for two senior dogs requires a lot of patience and attention to detail.

It’s such a relief to find someone so reliable who treats our older pups with such kindness. We highly recommend Tori!

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!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Lisle

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Lisle is $24 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $42 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 12,823 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Lisle. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lisle. On Rover:

  • 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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 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.
