“I am so happy that I found Tiffany! She was so kind, great communication, reliable, trustworthy, and she did great with my kitties. I highly recommend her and will definitely hire her again. ❤️”
About: For four years, I provided dependable care for my friend’s cat and bunny while she attended college in another city. I made sure they were fed on schedule, refreshed their water daily, cleaned litter boxes and living areas, monitored their health and behavior, gave them affection and attention, and ensured they felt safe and comfortable. I have taken care of animals ever since I started college and did it almost monthly for two years. I can do daily check ups after 4:15pm from Monday through Friday. I can do full day pet sitting on Saturday and Sunday when needed. I’m a person who’s job is to make sure everyone is safe and without doubt I will bring that when pet sitting. Safety is priority.
“Jackie was great with my two kitties. She came in each day and fed and watered them and scooped . She also brushed the one who was around (the other hides). I will use Jackie again when I need to and I would highly recommend her.”
“Carla is great! Her timely communication and professionalism provided peace of mind while we were away. We will certainly be having her house sit/drop-in while we are on our next foray!”
“Danielle was amazing!! I received photos every visit while traveling for work, a much needed pick me up on work trips. Danielle watched my husky, Great Dane, and 4 month old mixed breed puppy recently adopted from the Humane society and a little skittish but she took to Danielle quickly. I am glad to have found a good dog sitter for my work trips. Highly recommend!!”
“Kathryn was an excellent choice to do drop in checks feeding and litter box cleaning while we were away. She sent us photos of each visit and a check list of what was done including time of arrival and departure. We highly reccomend her and we hope she'll be available to when we have to be away again.”
About: I won't just treat them as a "pet" I treat all animals as family. I have taken care of various dog and cats from family members and friends since I was a child. This included staying over, walking, feeding, training and playing. At the moment I am pursuing schooling for dog training so I have open availability for walks and drop ins! I usually ask for a days notice but it never hurts to ask. I have had experience with larger dogs (German shepherds, Great Pyerenese, Pitbulls and Saint Bernards) as well as small dogs (Chihuahua's, Shih Tzu and Dachshunds). I also provide baths and nail trimming when asked. I enjoy running too so if your looking to get your dog in shape! For pets coming to my house they must be crate trained (for when I sleep) and friendly with other dogs.
“Ashton and Shelby are responsible, caring and conscientious. They are great at communicating, and showed flexibility when I had a need for an extra visit. Knowing that they were truly caring for my animals helped me have the peace of mind needed to relax and enjoy my trip. I highly recommend them and will not hesitate to hire them again. My cats, rabbits, fish and plants were all well-looked after and I really enjoyed all the photos and updates!”
About: I’m patient, caring, dependable, reliable and take my dog out on walks every day. I work from home so I will be with your beloved pet at all times. I work from home and have one dog who I walk daily. Most of my time is spent with my dog and if your dog stays with us, they will be with us all day. I do live in an apartment, however, I am active and attentive so I can provide a lot of activity outdoors or spend time with your dog indoors if that’s what they prefer.
“Brynn was awesome! She understands dogs and all their quirky behaviors. And she took and shared better pics of them than we have! It was so nice to get a break from puppy potty training and have some time to ourselves. We can't wait to have her back.”
About: I grew up taking care of a cat, and I fostered kittens multiple times, so I have more cat experience, but I love dogs too! I have experience dog-walking and dog-sitting for friends and family. I also worked in a biology lab caring for rats and fish, so I have a wide range of experience with animals! I work part-time, so I have open availability on Fridays, Sundays, Mondays, and Tuesday mornings. My husband is also typically available for afternoon and evening care any day of the week. I have plenty of room in my home for your pet, and if your pet needs any special accommodations, just ask and I will almost always be happy to help! We have a mostly fenced in backyard, but we are currently working on fixing the gate. I have a toddler at home, so pets who are okay with kids are preferred, but if not, I can also find childcare. My toddler is gentle with animals. We have no pets of our own in our home. At your home, I will follow any instructions and accommodations you may require. I have a good work ethic and am very detail-oriented.
“Leah is amazing. She’s very communicative and kept us up to date while we were away. She went out of her way to find cat tv channel to entertain our cat and set up the tv to turn off after certain amount of time. I would use Leah’s service again and would recommend her to anyone I know that may need her service.”
About: Having pups, kitties, and people puppies around me all my life, I provide attentive care, a semi-professional throwing arm with amazing aim as a red dot illusionist, and the ability to hike 3 miles or nap for 3 hours - fur-friend's choice! I will bring my own water, blankie, and snacks, so whatever your pet desires or needs, I am a ready and willing adventure buddy! I work full time, but I find myself with spare time on weekends and after some work nights. I also have the added benefit of a hybrid work schedule, so I am happy to work from your home with your bestie(s) and catch multiple play or potty breaks with the cutie(s). In your home, I am respectful of your space and theirs, and I am really laid back but responsible by nature. Your fur-friend will be safe and comfy in their own space, and I have very good self-entertaining skills and sleep habits if they prefer to be chill. If they are hyper or playful, I will match their energy within the limits and regulations of the home we are in. Car rides, hikes, parks, walks around the neighborhood, and even a backyard fetch session are happily encouraged. I can maintain a schedule or be as flexible as your buddy needs!
“Went above and beyond. I moved from the east coast and dont have many people to help me. I had to travel due to a death and didnt realize I was going to b away as long as I was. They went to the store and got me more pet food. They also got my roommates key when I left the spare inside. They were very fairly priced and great with my pets. I highly reccommend.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Lyons
Tiffany did a fantastic job caring for my two cats while I was away. She was an excellent communicator, very respectful, reliable, and clearly hardworking. It was obvious from the start that she genuinely loves animals and takes great pride in caring for them. One of my cats is a rescue and is very nervous around people, but Tiffany did a wonderful job making sure he was comfortable and doing well throughout her visits. She followed all of our instructions perfectly and even went above and beyond by bringing in packages that arrived while we were gone. I especially appreciated the detailed updates and the many photos she shared after each visit. It was reassuring to see that everything was taken care of, and I loved receiving the cute pictures of my pets while I was away. Tiffany exceeded my expectations, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter. She will definitely be one of my first choices the next time I need care for my cats.

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

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.
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.
