“We left our pups in Kaitlin’s care at our house for an entire week and we couldn’t have been happier!! Kaitlin loved our pups and they were super comfortable with her as well! I was actually jealous because she got way more snuggles than I typically do! We will definitely ask her to come back and I highly recommend her!”
“Best dog sitter ever! She sent photos, and videos, the doggies loved her. She gave them 2 walks a day, and even cleaned our house. How nice it was to come home and have happy fur kids, and a clean house!”
“Ezra stayed with our puppy for 2 nights and made it so easy for us to travel. They were very communicative the entire time, in planning and during the stay. Our puppy was well cared for - they did a great job! We’ll definitely book again.”
About: I am a mom to a rescue dog who I call my “best friend!” I have had 3 dogs in my lifetime. I also feed and care for cats - my sister has 5 felines! I am very reliable and dedicated to helping animals feel safe and loved while being fed and engaged! I am off work in the summers and have a flexible work schedule during the day time. My daughter enjoyed doing Rover and that’s why I am here! Our good friend is a veterinarian and can supply a reference. I am looking forward to meeting your pet(s)! Thank you for your consideration - our pets are very important family members as you well know! I currently am not boarding pets but possibly in the summer time! Thanks again! Petrea
“Mariela stayed with our pets are our home this past weekend. We have two dogs and a bearded dragon. We highly recommend using Mariela for your pet sitting needs! Mariela was willing to stay at our home, handle our pets care, and provide love/comfort during her stay. Mariela even took our dogs for a walk to have a nice fun activity. Mariela also was willing to learn how to care for a bearded dragon. That can be incredibly challenging especially when it’s all new, but Mariela handled it like a champ! She showed both our dogs and our bearded dragon so much love. We are so incredibly thankful to her for everything she did! If you are needing a pet sitter, we strongly recommend Mariela! She is a true professional and she even sent us updates during her stay to help reassure mom and dad their babies were doing okay! Mariela thank you so so much for everything you did! We greatly appreciate you!”
About: I’ve always had a love for animals and have cared for dogs of all ages. My two senior dogs, King and Ozzie, have taught me patience, gentle care, and that sometimes pets just need you to slow down and meet them where they are. 🐾❤️ I’m a cat lover too! We have three cats of our own—Church, Girl, and Iris. One of them came to us from outside, so I understand that every cat has their own personality, comfort level, and needs. I’m patient, gentle, and happy to let cats warm up to me at their own pace. 🐱❤️ Your pet’s safety and comfort come first. I follow their normal routine, keep a close eye on them, and make sure they’re secure during walks and visits. I’m also respectful of your home and will treat your pet and their space with the same care I give my own. 🐾❤️
“Karen was amazing my animals loved her and I got updates multiple times a day! She walked them multiple times a day and treated them like her own! Highly recommend will book again!”

I love going on walks and just laying around cuddling animals!
“Happy Wednesday, thank you Marla ! She exceeded our expectations from start to finish in caring for our pets and following the process from feeding 3 cats and taking our dog out several times plus feeding him. She provided excellent communication throughout the 4 days , I would encourage anyone to hire Marla.”
“This was our first time ever having someone who isn’t a family member or close friend watch our dog and I felt so comfortable with Reggi staying in our home and taking care of our dog! She was warm and professional all at the same time. Highly recommended Reggi!”

About: I have taken care of cats, dogs, hamsters, gerbils, rabbits and even reptiles since I was a little kid growing up in Madison, Wisconsin--we had cats, dogs, rodents and reptiles, often all at once. As an adult, I've kept and cared for cats of all kinds, including ones needing medical care / injections. I truly am a cat person but love all animals. I'm currently a consultant-based worker, so my free time is kinda plentiful. I like playing with and caring for animals, and as a home owner myself, I am very capable of watching and caring for a home while someone is away. I use gentleness and love and the owner's instructions to care for animals in their homes. Currently I don't offer pet boarding, but am great at drop ins for feeding / treats and potty breaks / litter box clean 'n refresh.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Loves Park on Rover is $49.05 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 313 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Loves Park. 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 Loves Park 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 Loves Park 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 Loves Park 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 Loves Park. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
