“This was my first time using Rover and in-home visits so was unsure how it would go, but I am so glad Drew was able to accommodate my short notice sitter request! She was very patient with my dogs the first visit when they were not used to someone else in the home without me there and gained their trust quickly. Drew spent quality time with them playing and cuddling each visit. She even brought them a new toy they really enjoy! She sent detailed updates and took great pics throughout the entire time. I felt very comfortable with her in my home and definitely trust her with my dogs. Would highly recommend and use Drew again in the future.”
“Amanda is great! She took amazing care of our dog and cat while we were gone for a weekend. She always arrived on time and sent great photos and updates. She clearly loves all animals and showed both of ours the same love. I would highly recommend and will be booking her again:)”
“Miriam was great with my dogs while I was out of town and the last minute booking wasn't an issue. One of my dogs takes medicine every few hours and Miriam was able to administer it with no problems.”
“Joyce was great! She came on short notice to give my dog Rue her epilepsy medication and was super prompt, reliable, and sweet. I appreciated how efficient and low-maintenance she was—didn’t need much direction and handled everything smoothly. Will definitely book her again!”
“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!!”
“Reggi was great with my cat Eliza! She sent lots of very enthusiastic updates about how Eliza was doing, along with photos so I could see for myself. She seemed very on top of things and let me know if anything was out of the ordinary. Reggi really went above and beyond, and I'd be happy to hire her again.”
About: I have 2 indoor cats and 2 Labrador Retrievers. I also have recent puppy experience as my youngest dog is less than 1 year old. With 20 years of experience as a cat owner, I also understand their unique needs. I am not currently working another job so my schedule is very flexible to accommodate the needs of your Fur babies. And, I understand the importance of having someone you trust care for them when you’re not able to. I have a fenced in yard and take my dogs for at least 1 walk a day in addition to their unstructured playtime so I understand the importance of prioritizing the needs of Fur babies to maximize their quality of life.
About: Hi! I'm Jacqui, and I've been surrounded by cats my entire life. As the proud cat mom of four, I know firsthand that every cat has a unique personality, routine, and way of communicating. Whether your cat is playful, shy, independent, or loves constant attention, I take the time to understand what makes them feel safe, comfortable, and happy. During each visit, I'll provide fresh food and water, clean the litter box, administer basic care as instructed, and spend quality time with your cat based on their individual preferences. Some cats love to play, while others simply appreciate a calm, reassuring presence—and I'm happy to meet them where they are. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member. I'll treat your cats as if they were my own, providing dependable, compassionate care and keeping you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind. I look forward to meeting you and your feline family! 🐾 I am a teacher, so I am working during the day, but I am available for drop in visits on weekdays after 3, and/or anytime on the weekends! I genuinely love spending time with cats and getting to know each one's unique personality. One of my favorite parts of cat sitting is earning a cat's trust, whether they're playful and outgoing or shy and reserved. Every visit is an opportunity to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their family is away. There's nothing more rewarding than seeing a timid cat come out for pets or having a playful cat greet me at the door. Knowing I can provide peace of mind for both cats and their owners is what I enjoy most.
“I really appreciated all of Tanya's help with my pets. She's reliable, friendly, and trustworthy. I can see why she's so highly recommended...I will definitely book her again!”
“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 is great. I can tell she really cares for animals and my dog (and fish) would agree. She’s punctual and shared plenty of picture updates while we were away. I definitely recommend Emily for your pet sitting needs! 😃”
“Medea is a great pet sitter. She was accommodating and easy to communicate with. Medea even went the extra step in helping water my potted plants. I would definitely recommend her to a friend :)”
“So grateful to Brittany and Branson! The kitties looked like they were having a great time. We have 1 that doesn’t warm up to anyone but she loved Brittany! Thank you so much for taking such good care of our babies!!”
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 took wonderful care of our senior dog while we were out of town, making sure she got lots of attention & walks. She sent pictures & videos showing Fiona was in great hands. We will use her services again & recommended her to anyone looking for a trusted pet sitter.”
About: I have lots of experience with cats and dogs, big or small. I’m comfortable with dogs, cats, rats, rabbits, reptiles, and fish! I have experience giving injections and oral meds and I’m super comfortable with doing so. Also, I have experience watching pets post-op, as well as puppies and dogs with anxiety. I have a full time job Monday-Friday, but would love to care for your pet on weekends and evenings. I’m available most weekday evenings for walks or drop ins, and I’m available anytime on weekends for walks or drop ins. I’d love to be a great companion to your pet while you trust me with their care. I love playing with high energy dogs to get their energy out, but I also respect pets who need chill/alone time.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Loves Park
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 🥰
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 for Pet Sitting in Loves Park on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 540 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Loves Park. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Loves Park stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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:
- 97% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% 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.
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.
