“Kaitlyn is a delightful pet sitter! She made us feel so at ease leaving our doggie at home in her care. She is great with animals and our grumpy old lady really liked her! Will definitely book again for the next trip!”


“Connie did a great job taking care of our fur babies and our home when we were out of town. She went over and above her job duties and picked up our garbage and recycle cans after a storm any then Picked up all the recycling from the ditch. We were really happy she has been there this week!”


About: I have had dogs/cats my whole life and love working with them! Experience in walking, pet sitting and check ins on pets. You should be able to step away without stress! Your paws are in good hands. :) I’m currently in my career don’t let that fool you! I am an early riser and a would love to be able to check in or walk your furry friend as early at 4am! Weekends and flexible! Your dog's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I provide a clean, calm, and trustworthy environment where every dog is treated like family. Whether we're out for a walk or relaxing at home, you'll have peace of mind knowing your pup is receiving plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I take the time to get to know each dog's unique personality and needs so they feel safe, loved, and right at home while you're away!

About: I've taken care of a senior Bulldog for 1 year. I ended up training him and living with him. He made major improvements in behavior for his owner. We became best buds. Also I've taken care of a cat on a regular basis for the past 2 years. Playtime and cuddles are the best! I get along well with any animal I've met. Each animal has such a unique personality, and I'm excited to learn about them! Also when I was a kid I had hamsters as pets for about 10 years. During most weekdays I'm available anytime. Some Saturdays I'm available. But most Sundays I'm not available. I have a lot of flexibility and will work with your needs. I will be able to take care of your pets at your home or my home. Whatever is more convenient for you. I only ask that they are house trained and you bring what they would need of course. I will follow whatever guidelines you may have. I'm currently retired and will be available to take care of your pet Monday-Friday anytime of day. Some Saturdays are available too. Not on Sundays though. I have an unfenced yard and a park nearby that I can play with your dog at. Most of the time we will be inside my 1 bedroom ground floor apartment. Since I am home and not working, I'll give them plenty of attention and care!
About: I have had 4 dogs of my own and have taken care of lots of friends and families pets. I have taken care of pets of all ages and breeds. I am currently working part-time. I am home from college and I have very flexible hours. I am able to work weekdays and weekends! I will take care of pets with fences or no fences. I will watch them outside and make sure they don’t get into anything in the house!
About: My name is Marill. I love all animals. I have been watching animals since 2006. I absolutely love dogs. Every pet I've ever watched I try to mimic their home behavior so there are no bad habbits learned. If they aren't allowed on the couch at home. I wont let them here. If they are working on commands I will use your verbiage and hopefully return them to you more trained then when they came! If you want them to have the best time ever and be on vaca too, I can absolutely do that as well with beach days and sleeping in, on my bed! I want your pet to feel happy and loved while you're away and I can always provide pictures and video's too if you'd like! I have had a lot of experience with dog behaviors, training and medications and am always willing to learn. I chose to do Rover because I no longer wanted to leave my older dog… then COVID happened and I lost all 4 of my hospitality jobs so I chose to watch dogs full time! Rover is just one more way to get my name out there, but this is all I do all day long and I love it! I own a boarding business that I run out of my home so I’m here all day every day doing what I love. So Rover is just a great way to get in touch with people that need their pet to be in a safe and happy environment while they are away. I have 6 dogs of my own. Ranging from 6 years to 1. All different play styles or all of them love to sleep too! I have everything your dog needs to feel safe, get properly socialized, learn in a group setting and really enjoy coming here every time. I love all the dogs I watch just as if they were my own.

About: I have 3 years of pet sitting experience caring for dogs, cats, fish, and lizards. I grew up around animals and currently have 2 dogs, 2 cats, and farm animals, so I’m very comfortable with different personalities, sizes, and routines. I’ve cared for up to 3 dogs at once and have experience with pets ranging from puppies and kittens to senior animals (dogs 1–14 years old, cats 1–17 years old). I’m also comfortable administering medications since my own pets require them. Experience with breeds ranges from English Mastiffs to small terriers. I currently work part time, so I will have plenty of time to spend with your pets! I am free most days of the week, and have a very flexible schedule. I make sure to treat not only your pets, but your property with respect and privacy. Your pets safety and happiness is one of my main goals with all of my visits.
“This is the second time Lauren came to visit my cats while I was out of town. She still had all the notes from last time 3 cats all with special diets. I felt good knowing they would be well taken care of. Thanks Lauren!”

About: I have loved animals my whole life. growing up with dogs, cats, fish, and birds, I enjoy pets of all kinds! I have experience with both pet boarding and pet sitting! I have worked with several different families with multiple dog and feel totally comfortable with that. Going to the dog park is always fun but I know some dogs aren’t comfortable there. I also have lots of experience with cats and birds. My roommate is allergic to cats so they can’t stay at our house but I would be happy to come to yours. Walking pups is a great way to explore new neighborhoods. Through these kinds of experiences I have learned that it is always more fun to walk around and explore with a four legged friend. I work a pretty consistent schedule but I am lucky enough to be able to flex it. I can adjust it to meet your pups needs. I have a fenced in yard that I spend a lot of time in during the summer. There are no other dogs in the building
“Avaiyah did a great job with our spunky and overly friendly dog when we went on a very last minute trip to see family. We had never done anything like Rover before and have only ever used the same boarder, so we were hesitant to try it out, but she made it so easy and we will definitely be using her again!”

About: Im a pet owner myself with 2 kitties and a bully breed. I’m comfortable with all kinds of pets including reptiles and birds as well as doing nail clippings with non aggressive pets. I taught my dog a few tricks like shake and spin. Overall very flexible with care on my days off. Thanks for looking! I currently work full-time 3 days a week, 12 hr shifts. Aside from that I’m free weekends to care for your babies while you take a vacation or a quick break! My pets are always supervised as they tend to be velcro babies. I take my pets out on a schedule as well as have a feeding schedule twice a day. Trips to the dog park are an option so long as safety is kept in mind, I tend to go when the park is less busy to avoid any potential fights. Pets are allowed on furniture and beds as they are family.

About: I have years and years of experience watching pets — for starters, I grew up with 3 big indoor dogs, a cat, and a parrot! At my house currently, my husband and I have two big dogs and a rotating cast of family dogs we're usually watching. In the last 20 years, I've also had three house rabbits. I've always loved animals, and I have years of experience as a pet- and house-sitter. I have extensive experience watching senior animals, reptiles, crabs, cats, birds, and multiple-pet households. I once dog-sat for a pack of 8 dachshunds at once! I love to walk and head to the dog park. I'm dependable, friendly, and easygoing, and I'd love to hang out with your pet! I work a full-time remote job with a very flexible schedule, so just let me know when works for you! I'm available for overnights and multiple-night stays, as well. I am careful with new pets I don't know, and follow instructions to the T. I will care for your animal(s) as if they were my own.
“My cats have special needs, with Ariel's background, I was very comfortable leaving them in her care. She graciously came over for not one, but two meet and greets to go over all of the medications and special diets. This really helped put me at ease. Ariel sent pictures and detailed updates. She even gave them extra attention and hand washed their dishes. I'm in the process of booking her again. Thanks so much, Ariel!”

About: My family always had pets growing up, I've taken care of dogs, cats, fish, ginuea pigs, and even a few bearded dragons. I've also pet sat for friends, family, and neighbors! I've raised a couple kittens into adulthood too! I currently work throught the week during the day, but my availability opens up at about 5pm. My weekends are usually pretty open. I'm always happy to be flexible whenever possible. The cats I've brought up from kittens ended up affectionate and playful. My current cat is a rescue, due to having a rough early life she ended up extremely shy and anxious, she's taught me a lot about interacting with cats, and more generally animals, that are cautious of people.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 1,955 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Little Chicago. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

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.
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.
