“Maricela did drop in visits for us while we were on a cruise. It was my first time using Rover and I couldn’t be more pleased. She was super responsive to messages and always checking in. I have such a hard time leaving our pets for vacation but she made that part of the trip so easy for us. I would refer her to anyone who needed pet sitting services. I can’t thank her enough.”
“Mariela was amazing! She dropped by to take care of our dog Kobe and did a fantastic job. She was reliable, caring, and clearly great with dogs and Kobe absolutely loved her. It gave us total peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. We’d happily book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and kind sitter. 🐾”
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 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.
“Sarah is the very best!!!!!! We loved having her watch our cats and will definitely be booking with her again. She has great cat energy and our two boys love her. We have a litter robot and automatic pet feeder, so we really just wanted someone to check in every couple of days while we were out of the country with no cell service for over a week on our honeymoon. Sarah noticed that one of our cats messed with the feeder machine and it looked like it wasn't dispensing food the right way. Sarah went out of her way to do extra visits to make sure that the cats had food. 10/10, she also helped water my patio garden plants while we were away”
“Gabriela is wonderful! She was able to accommodate a last minute request, which I really appreciated. She is always on time or a few minutes early, which is nice, and is great with my pup.”
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
“Hannah was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of our 2 cats Meko & Misty. We looked forward to all her reports. She sent us several pictures of her playing and petting both cats. So I know they had a great time. We hadn't asked but she went ahead and put our garbage cans out for us. We were on a family vacation and I recommended her to my son & daughter-in-law as they were not happy with their cat sitter. We're planning a short trip next month and will definitely book her again.”
About: I grew up on a small dairy farm in Wisconsin taking care of cows, pigs, cats, dogs, and a brother. I also ran sleep away summer camps for ten years. I am excited to help you and your fur baby! I am full time work-from-home. As long as there is an internet connection I can do my work and watch and take care of your fur babies. I am willing to help with all aspects of pet care-walking, feeding, grooming, bathing, brushing teeth, etc. All I need are clear instructions and/or schedule along with any signs your pet is trying to communicate and I am good to go.
“Maggy is great! Good communication, takes good care of Sky even when cat was hiding due to storms. I really appreciate how she accommodated our last minute change in plans. 5 stars ++”
“Katherine was amazing. Went above and beyond for my first time using Rover. I have never had a “stranger” come in and take care of Chili, who can be temperamental. She immediately made me feel comfortable and Chili liked her. Very appreciative of her communication and care of him.”
“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.”
“Eleanor was attentive to both my cats. They were promptly fed, their water checked, litterbox cleaned, and they even got some playtime. Even my timid cat warmed up to her which is great. She was so nice and communicative, I'd definitely recommend her.”
About: Animals have always been a very special part of my life. I grew up surrounded by dogs and cats, so caring for animals has been natural to me since childhood. I absolutely love animals and truly enjoy spending time with them. I’m also a dog owner myself, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can genuinely trust with your pet. I know that every dog has their own personality, habits, and routine, and I always try to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I’m comfortable with walking, feeding, playtime, basic care, and following your pet’s usual routine and your instructions. I’m patient, attentive, responsible, and happy to send photos and updates during walks or visits so you can feel completely at ease while your pet is with me. I will care for your pet with the same kindness and attention I would want someone to give my own. 🐾❤️ have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for your pets throughout the week. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, playtime, and pet sitting on both weekdays and weekends. I’m happy to adjust to your pet’s usual routine and needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully, keep pets supervised, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’m patient, attentive, and respectful of each pet’s individual personality, routine, and needs.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Medinah
To put it simply Warda is amazing! She comes prepared when you do a meet and greet with her, prior to an official booking. She has a checklist of questions and gives you knowledge, since she is a cat mom herself. When she is taking care of your fur baby, she updates you with every visit and sends pictures, videos, and a very thorough summary of what happened during her visit. She offers to tidy up the house before you come back from your break as well. She is very observant (for example she got my cat Milo a water dispenser since she noticed I didn’t have one). Overall she is a very thoughtful, welcoming, and knowledgeable person and I know that Milo enjoyed having her around. Don’t hesitate booking with Warda, you won’t regret it!
Kristina was wonderful at taking care of Saga. She was kind, caring and loving. She was great at following directions related to her medication and food. Also, she was prompted answering all my questions. I appreciate your help and support when I was away from home. Thank you.
Katherine is a keeper!! She cared for our senior cat including giving him medication (pills) which isn’t easy. She is reliable and an excellent communicator. Our kitty was in great hands with Katherine. We were relaxed while we were away, knowing she had us covered.
Lia is great!! I have two dogs, one of whom is reactive, and she was completely understanding and willing to work with her. I was super nervous about it, but her knowledge and experience with dogs put my mind at ease super quick. My dogs LOVED her right away, and were so happy to walk with her. 10/10 recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Medinah on Rover is $19.26 per visit (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 13,327 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.
