Maricela, did an absolute great job checking in on my two dogs. She sent photos, updates and really gave me peace of mind. We will definitely be using her again in the future.

Margaret was great! My dog is often standoffish to new people. That was not the case this time. Knowing my dog is comfortable provides so much relief while I’m away.

About: I’ve had pets my whole life and have experience caring for and walking dogs for friends and family. I’m comfortable with different breeds, sizes, energy levels, and personalities. I love staying active, so long walks and playtime are never a problem. I’m patient, reliable, and enjoy sending photo updates and check-ins so you can feel confident that your dog is happy and well cared for. I’m currently on summer break, which gives me a very flexible schedule for pet care. I have a 2-hour practice each day, but outside of that I am available throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, playtime, feeding, and companionship. I always follow the pet owner’s instructions to make sure their pet stays comfortable and maintains their normal routine. In a client’s home, I provide feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of attention while keeping the space clean and secure. I also send regular updates and photos so owners know their pet is happy and well cared for. I adjust my care to each pet’s personality, energy level, and specific needs to help them feel safe and comfortable.

About: I've taken care of pets ever since I was a kid. When I was in high school, my family hosted dogs of all sizes, including one of my favorites, a Burnese Mountain Dog named Ruby. Lately I've had the chance to watch my brother's two dogs (as seen in my bio pics) when he travels. I work a semi-active full time job over the week, with plenty of energy to spare when I'm not working. I am fully available over the weekends from Friday evening straight through to Sunday! I also am free on weekdays for walks or drop-ins as long as it's before 7:30 am or after 5 pm. Your dog will stay in a cozy, smoke-free condo where they are welcome on the furniture and bed. While I don't have a yard, I love taking long, frequent walks around the neighborhood. For their comfort and safety, I host one family at a time and ask that owners provide the dog's preferred bed or crate if possible

About: *Sorry, rates have increased a bit due to newly increased Rover fee for sitters.* I have had many dogs, cats and fosters over the years. I love animals and enjoy caring for them. Currently available to watch CATS in my home. I have one small dog (12 yrs old) and one cat (6 yrs old) I work from home, so your pet will be fully supervised during work hours. Our home is peaceful and quiet, no small children. My own pets are calm and friendly. My small senior dog and my own cat are friendly, but I do have a spare bedroom available if your pet would prefer privacy and their own space. I understand that cats can be nervous in new places, they will have plenty of safe hiding spots until they become more comfortable to the new environment.

About: I’ve spent years caring for both children and animals, which has made me patient, attentive, and very dependable. I’ve been pet and house sitting for family and friends for years, caring for dogs of different ages and personalities. I also have an 8-year-old dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I’m excited to start offering my services more broadly and provide the same level of care to others. I work a consistent 7:30 AM–4:00 PM schedule during weekdays, but I’m available for morning, evening, and overnight care. I’m able to provide walks, feedings, and quality time before and after work, and I’m fully available on weekends. I’m committed to making sure your pet feels cared for, comfortable, and well-attended. I provide care in your home so your pet can stay comfortable in their own environment and routine. I always respect your space, keep things clean, and follow all instructions closely. I’m attentive to each pet’s needs, whether that’s walks, feeding schedules, playtime, or extra patience. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible for both you and your pet.

You will not go wrong if you choose Warda. I left my young, shy kitten & came home to her being outgoing, talkative & more playful. Warda is a cat mom & treated my cat as her own. She also found ways to capitalize on the drop-in time for entertainment as it was my cat's time to be left alone without me being there. I know my cat missed me as she hasn't let me out of her sight since my coming home and that warms my heart.

Even responded quickly when I added a last minute additional visit on very short notice. She clearly loves cats and took excellent care of Skylar!

About: I grew up with pets my whole childhood and since moving out, I’ve adopted a cat and a dog. I’m great with animals and I have watched the pets of my friends and family many times. I know pets tend to miss their owner when they’re away, so I try to give them as much attention as possible to make them comfortable and happy while also sending the owner updates on their furry friend. Because of my experience, I’m very comfortable with both large and small pets and enjoy taking them on walks, no matter the size! I went through obedience training with many of my animals so I know how to handle them in many situations and moods. I’m also a certified nursing assistant so poop and vomit don’t bother me and I have no problem cleaning it up! I’d love to watch any pet, especially yours :) I have two jobs but I tend to have more availability during the week than the weekend. I prefer to have at least a day’s notice so I can confirm my availability We have several pets so I’m more comfortable doing drop in visits rather than bringing animals into my home. I’m great when it comes to cleaning up after pets while still allowing them to play and get their energy out while you’re away

Kathleen was so kind and seriously the best! She left detailed notes everyday, sent lots of pictures and made sure to spend time with our furry friends rather than just quickly stopping by. I will for sure be using her in the future! Thanks again Kathleen!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Medinah on Rover is $19.26 per visit (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 13,623 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Medinah. 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 Medinah 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 Medinah. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
