“Ms. Medea provided an excellent service for my dogs. They thoroughly enjoyed their time with her during their visit and walk. I felt at ease knowing that Ms. Medea has experience with active dogs, which was a significant factor in my decision to choose her services.”
“I have a very shy cat who while loves pets and attention runs to hide with people he doesn't know. Jayme was able to coax him out w/treats the first day she was here and he loved her. It felt great having someone here who he trusted right away! Highly recommend!!”
“Petrea was very efficient and Sweeeet. I’d never been away longer than a day with my kitty. This was a week and she was played with and fed well and got better every day with her fear. Pictures were sent to me every day. Came home to a healthy baby. Thank you Petrea. I’ll use her again for sure!”
“Emily does a great job taking care of Mango. She takes time to play with her, clean her litter and make sure she is well fed. She is always prompt and considerate of our house. I would highly recommend her!”
“Jacqueline was our first cat sitter and we couldn't be more impressed! She was so wonderful with our two cats and spent real time playing with them and giving them love while we were away. She was timely, respectful, and communicative. We look forward to having her cat sit for us in the future!”
About: I’ve been around dogs for most of my life and have experience caring for both adult dogs and puppies. I currently have a puppy of my own, so I’m familiar with potty training, crate training, feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and helping puppies learn good habits through patience and consistency. In the past, I’ve also dog sat for friends and family, providing loving care while they were away. I understand that every dog has their own personality and routine, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, or just relaxing with company, I’ll treat them like they’re part of my own family. I work remotely during the week, which gives me flexibility to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I have availability on weekdays, evenings, and most weekends, and I’ll always do my best to accommodate your pet’s routine. Whether your dog needs a midday walk, overnight care, or just some extra companionship while you’re away, I’m committed to providing dependable, loving care. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I understand how important it is to trust someone with a member of your family, and I’ll care for your pet as if they were my own. I always follow your instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and routines to help your pet feel comfortable!
About: Growing up I lived in the country with cows, horses and chickens next door. We always had many cats and dogs because we had the space and they just knew we would take them in if they didn't have a home. I wish I had the space now to have more animals but since I dont, it would be an honor to take care of yours. My experience with animals would be having a cat that needed shots daily for diabetes, a blind dog, dog that had seizures, taking care of friends and family's pets. Some which needed daily medicine or had a lot of energy : ). I ppreciate the trust they have in me to take care of their fur family members. Each pet, like humans, have their own personality. I work with my client's schedule I work with my client's schedule I work with my client's schedule I work with my client's schedule I work with my client's schedule N/A not applicable not applicable not applicable not applicable not applicable not applicable not applicable not applicable not applicable not applicable not applicable not applicable

“Chloe was wonderful with our dog and cat! They really responded well to her 😊 Our dog was walked daily and our cat's litterbox was monitored and cleaned out. Our cat got quite attached to Chloe when she was here 😊 She provided us with pictures and little updates to let us know they were doing well. The floor of the house where the pets stayed looked fantastic and the kitchen was cleaned of all the pets paraphernalia. Chloe did an amazing job! We would definitely have her sit for our pets again 🥰”
About: About Me 🐶🐱 Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who grew up with both dogs and cats, so caring for animals has always been a big part of my life! I have a 3-year-old Corgi named Katie who keeps me company and makes life a little more fun. I also have professional experience working at an animal shelter, where I spent 7+ hours a day walking dogs of all kinds. This gave me valuable hands-on experience handling dogs, understanding their needs, and making sure they get plenty of exercise and attention. Outside of that, I regularly dog-sit for family members and family friends, and I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having someone nearby to keep them company, I’m happy to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I understand that pets are family, and I’ll treat yours with the same love and care I give my own. You can count on me to be patient, dependable, and attentive to your pet’s individual needs. I’d love the opportunity to meet your furry family member! ❤️🐾 I currently work part-time, so I am pretty flexible! I’m usually unavailable on Mondays and Thursdays, except in the early morning (6-8am). Wednesdays I am available 6-9am and after 4pm usually, but can be flexible if needed. I’m usually open all day Monday-Sunday. My schedule does vary, but I make my own schedule and know my work days about a month in advance! I’m unfortunately unable to care for pets in my home due to not living on my own and not having a fenced in yard, but I can take care of your fur babies in your home however you need!
About: I taught my mother’s cat to give a paw 🤭 I only had to look after my own animals, but this experience is enough for me to take care of your pet, the most important thing is to love our little friends Now I don’t have a permanent job, so your pet will not be deprived of sufficient attention and care, I will do everything for his comfortable stay I don’t have pets and there is a lot of free space in my house where your pets will feel free and protected. There is a small area around my townhouse that is not fenced, so if necessary, I will be under my constant review when walking my pet.
“Was our first time having to leave our dogs behind. Theresa saved us! She took excellent care of both my 80+ lb dogs. Knowing it was our first time, she came over to meet us and the dogs. They got along within seconds! Theresa was very communicative throughout the visit. Will definitely be choosing Theresa again.”
About: As a dedicated animal lover with a background in vet tech care, I'm confident in my ability to provide top-notch care for your furry friends. With experience working in a veterinary setting and a lifelong passion for animals, I've developed a deep understanding of their needs and behaviors. Growing up in an animal-loving family, I was exposed to various aspects of pet care, including dog shows and breeding. I've also had the pleasure of caring for my family's pets during their vacations, which has given me hands-on experience in providing personalized care and attention. My expertise extends to assisting with animal births, nail clipping, and caring for newborn puppies through their senior years. My family affectionately calls me the "pet whisperer" due to my ability to connect with animals of all ages and breeds. I'm committed to providing compassionate, trustworthy, and professional care for your beloved pets, and I'm excited to work with you to ensure their happiness and well-being." I am a widow and all my sons are grown, so I have nothing but time on my hands and to be honest my mom suggested that I give this a try because I watch her animals when she goes out of town and they are bad separation anxiety and when she has had someone watch them in the past her dogs wouldn’t eat and would be very depressed but when I watch them they have no problems , they eat , they play , and they are happy. She said my Aunt watches pets for a living and she loves it and since I am a big animal lover and I am so good with them that I should give Rover a try. I have an open availability.I also recommend a meet and greet that way you have a chance to meet me and so do your fur babies before you make any decisions! I follow the parents of the pets instructions and try to give the fur babies a normal routine as if their parents were home. I feed, play, walk, and will even cuddle with your fur baby and if it is a sleepover stay and your fur baby is use to sleeping next to you and they want to sleep next me then that is perfectly fine with me. All I want is for your fur baby to feel loved and safe!
About: I currently have two small dogs who I take care of full time. I’ve had them for 5 years now. I love playing with dogs, rubbing their tummy, or just hanging out with them. If your dog has separation anxiety that will not be a problem. One of my dogs is the same way and I wouldn’t mind being there full time for your dog. Pet care fits into my schedule perfectly because most of my days consist of being home taking care of my two small dogs. I’m also a nursing student so it helps that I have a lot of time after studying to play with the dogs/puppies. I have a fenced yard. It is pretty big. In order to keep my dogs safe I always make sure doors are closed before letting them out and as a special precaution I like to add an AirTag to their collars in case anything happens (has not happened yet but it’s better to be safe than sorry).
About: I’ve taken care of many animals for over 8 years. I’ve done over night visits, check ins to walks as well. Animals I have watched or taken care of are, dogs (puppies), cats (kittens) , fish, bunnies and hamsters! I love giving animals attention, love and treats!! Right now I am working part time and soon to be starting school only two days a week. So I am available most days just not on weekends! Preferred days would be Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursdays! I have a fenced yard, two friendly dogs, I love giving all animals love and attention. I love going on walks and just laying around cuddling animals!
About: Growing up I always had dogs in my life from ones we had to nurse ourselves bc their mom's couldn't or the ones on my great grandpa's farm that I would stay outside all day running in corn fields with or laying outside with. Dogs have always been a big part of my life and always thought of as my equal. I learned a lot about different diets for different breeds we have had and I also worked as dog bathed for a PetSmart years ago. I always had a heart for the older dogs that were having joint problems and health problems. I always created a bond with them and felt for them. I love puppies too and caring for them like a mother.
About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was 10. I really got into the role when I got my first dog in 2019 and I raised him during Covid. I woke up with him during the night when he was crying, fed him, played with him, took him on walks, and taught him tricks. Then when I got my second dog in 2022 I did the same thing with him and I raised him during the summer time! I’m currently working as a nanny Tuesday-Friday until 4pm. Just looking for some extra work after 4pm, and happy to come help out with your pet needs! Whether that’s needing to let them out to the bathroom, going for a walk or just needing a friend to play with! I will abide by your rules for your dog. Keeping them on their regular schedule that you have them on. Ensuring they are safe and in a fun environment!

Brittany was so easy and helpful to work with. She was super friendly and my reserved cat was happy to see her. I loved and pictures and communication while I was away. It really gave me a piece of mind that my kitty was safe and happy. This was my first time using Rover and I am very glad I chose to go with Brittany. I will use her again int he future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Loves Park is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $26 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 November 2026, there are 517 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Loves Park. 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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Loves Park. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 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.
