“Errin took care of our cat for one week while we were on vacation and was absolutely wonderful! It gave me such peace of mind to know she was loving on our cat everyday and would send pictures everytime she stopped by! She was very punctual and professional - I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs a sitter. She made everything very easy and we came home to a well fed cat with fresh water and a clean litter box. Thank you, Errin!”

“Samantha and her son took wonderful care of my dogs while I was out of town. From the very beginning, I felt completely at ease knowing they were in good hands. They gave my dogs plenty of cuddles and belly rubs, which made all the difference, my pups were clearly happy and well cared for. Samantha was also excellent with communication, responding quickly to my questions and staying consistent with her home visits. I truly appreciate the care, reliability, and kindness she showed. I will absolutely be rebooking with her, she’s earned my trust and loyalty for the amazing care she gave my dog children”


“5 stars! We are so grateful for the amazing care our dogs received. It’s such a relief to come home to happy, relaxed pups instead of anxious ones. You were reliable, attentive, and clearly gave them lots of love during your visits. We truly appreciate the peace of mind and will absolutely be booking again. Highly recommend!”


About: “The love for all living creatures is the most noble attribute of man.” Growing up, my family and I were always rescuing stray dogs/cats and any wild animal that crossed our path and needed our help. I also worked at a pet resort for 4 years and had the pleasure of taking care of dogs, cats, birds, and even a pet pig one time! Currently I am volunteering at a wildlife rehabilitation center and wish to start a career in conservation soon. I’m very keen on reading animals body language and will respect whatever they are trying to communicate. I treat all animals as family and I believe as humans we should protect and advocate for them.

About: I have always had dogs in my life growing up, and currently have a dog at home as well. I love playing with dogs and providing them with all the exercise, love, and attention that they need on a daily basis. Taking care of dogs and making sure they are well loved and have everything they need is super important to me. I will do everything I can to take the best possible care of your pets. I understand that pets are an important part of your family, and I don't take that lightly. I enjoy getting to spend time with your pet on his or her walk(s), and doing whatever else is needed such as giving them food and water, etcetera. I can't wait to meet your pet! I’m a full time stay at home mom, so will be able to give your pet the attention that they need as we are very flexible in our schedule. I have a fenced in backyard to let the kids safely play. We also have lots of room for the dogs to play inside, and can crate the dogs if needed.
About: I have taken care of animals ranging from horses all the way to puppies since I was a Sophomore in high school in my vet tech classes. I’m a full time stay at home mom, while my kiddos are at school three days a week, I still have three fluffies of my own I tend to. I have a large fenced backyard with a smaller fenced area to provide space between any and all dogs that may enjoy their privacy while taking care of business. Inside my home is also very pet friendly and we cater to all needs. Be it bathroom, toy and even treats.

About: Hello, I have had pets since I was 5 years old. My first ever pup just passed at an age of 16 years. I understand the circumstances that come with an older pup just as much as a baby pup, which I currently have. Something that will set me apart from other sitters is that I have a very open schedule and can accommodate to everyone’s needs. I am thankful and grateful to take care of pups if given the opportunity. I am currently unemployed I have all the time in the world to be able to walk, feed, and take care of your precious pups! I have a very open space, extremely attentive, will make sure the pups are in care and get their needs met before anything else so you have a peace of mind!

About: Certified in pet CPR and First Aid. Student at Animal Behavioral College receiving Obedience Dog Training Licenses. Currently employed as a Manager at a dog boarding and daycare facility. I have worked as a kennel technician since 2021. My full time job is scheduled during the morning so I am available in afternoons to give your pup mental and physical stimulation. From play, walks, cuddles and more. I have a Pet First Aid kit with me at all times. I do not mind cameras in the main areas of house to monitor the quality care. I prefer clear communication with the pet owners, with providing updates on your pups well being while under my care.

“Fabtastic choice! Sophia was very communicative, timely, and attentive to our pup + cats needs! She went above and beyond to make sure our senior boy was well taken care of while we were away. Would recommend big time!”

About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life—dogs, cats, reptiles, small mammals, birds—you name it. I’ve picked up a lot over the years just by being around all kinds of animals with different personalities, temperaments, and needs. I’m confident and calm whether I’m hanging out with a couch potato pup or a high-energy goofball who needs a good run to settle down. If your pet has specific needs—crate routines, feeding schedules, meds, whatever—I’ll follow your instructions exactly. I’m big on communication and will always send plenty of pics and updates so you feel connected while you’re away. I usually work mornings, so I’m available in the evenings after 3 PM. That said, feel free to ask if you need a different time that's in the morning or afternoon—I might be available! When I’m caring for pets in their home, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I know how important consistency is for animals, so I stick closely to their usual routine—whether that means feeding at a certain time, refreshing water, administering medications, or just knowing where they like to nap. For drop-in visits, I make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, playtime, and potty breaks (or litter scooping for cats). I’ll clean up any messes, check food and water, and keep an eye out for anything unusual in behavior or health. I also send photo updates during every visit so you know your pet is doing well. For dog walking, I tailor each walk to match your dog’s energy level and preferences—whether they need a slow stroll around the block or a brisk walk to burn off some energy. I use secure gear, always keep safety in mind, and make sure your dog gets both physical and mental enrichment during our time together. I treat every pet like they’re my own—with patience, respect, and love.

“5 stars for Anku. She did a great job caring for our dog and keeping us fully updated with every visit. She made sure our dog had everything he needed, including affection while we were away. Trustworthy.”

I’m a dedicated pet caregiver with a deep background in veterinary assistance. I understand that your pets are family, and I treat them with the same expertise I would in a clinical setting, combined with the love they get at home. Boarding is our main service but doggy daycare is also available! We have a huge backyard and a playful puppy to keep your pet company. I work from home and my husband is separated military so we are always home! Your stay is just a meet and greet away! How does the meet and greet work? Well! You can bring your pups to us! You get a first person experience of where your pet will be staying. Once inside we all meet in the backyard to make sure our pups get along! If your pet is reactive or not other pet friendly we can EASILY make accommodations! Tell us all about their daily routine and we will do our darndest to make them feel at home! I recommend bringing enough food for the trip, Leash or harness, a comfort toy, and food and water bowls. No need to bring your kennel! We have one available if you would like them kenneled. PCSing? Ask me about our Service Member Special! I work full time from home as a business owner. Being able to choose my schedule means I can prioritize your personal needs. I prioritize offering boarding options but the occasional drop in visit is also fine. The home can easily be sectioned off for seperate areas for cats and dogs if necessary. I have a fenced back yard and a open floor plan to ensure plenty of space for your fur babies to move around. This is a kennel free house hold so if you are crate training or prefer your pet sleep in their kennel please provide one. I do own 1 pet bird who will be seperate from any guests. We also own a kitten and a puppy. Im able to section off an area of our home to allow a safe stay for both cat and dog owners.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 2,759 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Mahomet. 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 Mahomet. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
