About: Hi! I’m a Veterinary student with experience in animal behavior, dog training, pet handling, and more. I’m passionate about providing a safe, loving, and stress free environment for pets in my home. My veterinary education helps me recognize health concerns, understand animal body language, and ensure every pet receives attentive, knowledgeable care. I will care for your pets with all the love in my heart, treating them as if they were my own and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved throughout their stay. 🐾❤️ As a Veterinary student, pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. I am available to care for pets during both weekdays and weekends, and I can provide plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I live in a secure apartment building with controlled access and a safe environment. There are several nearby parks and walking areas where your pet can enjoy regular exercise, enrichment, and outdoor time. I typically accept only one pet (or pets from the same family) at a time. I do not board pets from different households together, which helps prevent conflicts, anxiety, and unnecessary stress. This allows me to give each pet my full attention and ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and at home during their stay.
About: Hello. My name is Vanessa and I am a huge dog lover. I don’t see dogs as pets but more like family members. I’ve had 10+ years experience dogsiting for some friends dogs ranging from teacup Yorkies to Pitbulls. I have also been a dog owner to Rottweilers, American Eskimos and Shih-tzus. I don’t mind giving references if you need them to verify my work. I am a very sweet energetic and responsible person who promises to care for your dogs as best as I can and give them all my love as if they were my own. I take my responsibilities very serious and promise to follow any guidelines given to me and to keep your dogs safe. I am also willing to care for any other pets you have in the home. Being in the presense of dogs is a wonderful feeling and I will do anything in my power to make them feel comfortable and loved while you are away. If you have any questions feel free to ask. I can’t wait to meet your wonderful furry friends. I work on weekdays but am available to work around your schedule and im off weekends to accommodate any weekend travel you have as well. I am willing to follow any guidelines as far as how you would like your pets taken care of. I want to make sure you are always at ease when you leave your pets with me.
“Lisa is the best! I can't say enough good things about her. She is responsive, comes at the last minute, takes great pics, super friendly & loves my dogs & cats! Thank you, Lisa!”
“Danielle was great with Monarch. She took really good care of him, all of our instructions and showed up for every visit. I know that sounds basic but it is huge. We will definitely use Danielle again and can’t thank her enough.”

About: I care for dogs like they're my own. I have 20 years of pet care experience. I am equipped to handle any size dog. I love to take them running , teach new tricks, and overall make them feel like they're at home. Even if your dog is high energy, I will run with them , play games, and keep them entertained for as long as they're under my care. If your dog loves belly rubs, tricks for treats, and needs an enormous amount of attention then look no further. I can provide your dog with the home away from home experience and whether you're at work, or on vacation, your mind can be at ease because your dog will be safe and in good hands. I also do drop-ins and I can watch your dog in your home as well. I currently work from home, 35 hours a week so whether I need to take a dog for a walk or drop ok to feed some cats or dogs , it’s not a problem for me at all. I care for my clients pets as if they were my own. I don’t like to be bored so when your pet is with me , they won’t be bored either ! I’m really active and I love to get the pets the exercise they need and deserve.
“Jazz was so very awesome. This was the first time we used Rover and she was a definite awesome choice for our cats. We had a video call before to discuss everything and make sure we both knew what was to be expected. I got a text and photos and video of her visit with the cats, so my mind was more at ease. We will definitely recommend and rebook Jazz 😊”

“Devin made my new dog sitter search effortless which I greatly appreciate. She comes with a genuine love for dogs allowing me to work without worry. She was punctual and attentive to my pups needs. I highly recommend her services. Thanks Devin for putting my mind at ease by caring so well for my fur babies. 💘💖💞🤎”

About: I am 28 years old and I have experience taking care of 1 dog and 3 cats. I raised and trained him from a puppy and I would love to be able to help other families with their pet needs. I do not have a fenced yard, but I live across the street from a dog-friendly park and bike trail. As an avid dog lover, I will make sure your pet receives his/her adequate amount of exercise and play within a safe environment.

About: I’ve have experience taking care of my own four dogs at home, as well as my family/friends’. Additionally, I have volunteered at multiple dog shelters. I am currently working part-time at Spirit Halloween while I wait to be shipped off to the Air Force national guard. My schedule is flexible! I make sure to take them for frequent walks, groom them often, and ensure they are not in the cage for hours at a time.
About: I have about eight years of experience caring for friends' and clients' pets when they are moving or on vacation. I have a very open schedule and my lines for communication are very open. I live in a condo in Oak Lawn and own my own car meaning I have reliable transportation to any of the surrounding areas, if required for your needs. Pets seem to make themselves right at home even if they haven't been there before. I love long walks and don't mind laying around the house or jumping up and going out every hour depending on the pet's needs or desires. I am friendly and pets seem to warm up to me quickly. I have a knack for anticipating a pet's needs and go to whatever lengths I need to keep them safe and happy. I'm lucky enough to be able to mold my schedule around your pet's schedule. So whatever walking and feeding routine you have them on I can easily adjust to fit their needs. I follow every detail the pet parent leaves me to the letter. Even if your pet needs me to spin around 3 times and pretend to microwave his/her food or ACTUALLY has food that needs to be microwaved! I make sure to review instructions with the client the day of so we both feel comfortable that we are on the same page and their fur baby is getting the best care.
“Nicole was amazing with our puppy! We were very anxious dog moms and they did everything to calm our nerves! The pictures they took had us dying! Our puppy was clearly have the BEST time and was very comfortable with Nicole. Would highly recommend them!!”


About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 9 years old. I have walked them, bathed them, cuddles , massages, gave medications you name it. I absolutely love the feeling and genuine love that dogs give so I protect and love them at all cost! A stay home wife with no children home currently, so I’m free a lot! Needing a new hobby I enjoy to consume my days now. I have small babies so the house is already baby proofed! Also can purchase whatever is needed to make them feel comfortable! Not big on dogs being in crates and cages but if that’s what your prefer that can be arranged as well! Long as the dog is comfortable I am happy!
About: I have taken care of pups and kittens to older cats and dogs for about 5 years. I understand that they need love and care just like us humans do. I mostly work on my computer and take care of my daughter so, I'm pretty flexible. Their every need will surely be met. I have a 3-year-old and she loves animals, although she will be at school a great deal at the time. I have a nice space for dogs to walk around or play in my apartment as well as a park down the street with a big field. I am hospital and respectful in the dog's home as well.
“Erica has babysat our cat Domino in our home several times now. Domino is a cat that we took several months to rescue earlier this year. Consequently, she is shy and a bit skittish around new people. She bonded with Erica almost immediately! Erica has two cats of her own, so she knows a lot about them and their finicky nature. Erica has a warm and caring nature that comes across in the way that she communicates with Domino. She calls Domino her niece! Erica is fastidious with Domino’s litter box and feeds her twice daily. She sends us regular posts and updates regarding Domino’s antics. Erica spends time with Domino and plays with her. We miss Domino when we are gone, but never worry that she will be too lonely without us. We feel secure when we are away. We trust Erica with having the keys to our home. We have the utmost confidence that Erica will take great care of our fur baby.”

About: Please note a rate increase due to significant increase in sitter fees. I'm Jenni! I am a huge doggie lover and love children. I have 10+ years of experience working with dogs, including special needs and senior dogs. I also have 10+ years of working with children. I have a lot of patience. I have 2 dogs., Zoe, a Shih Tzu Maltese and Shuri a Cockapoo. I make sure that I am flexible with the needs of the fur babies I care for. I establish a routine that works well for everyone. While I do work, I am not far away and someone is usually home to give potty breaks mid day. I pride myself on working with families to make sure everyone is happy and ensure that extra snuggles and 1 on 1 is given if I am boarding multiple dogs. I have a secure fenced in backyard to allow your fur baby to get their zoomies out. I know how to properly secure your fur baby within their harness, collar and leash. If there is an animal that requires special needs or care (i.e. needing to be let out or walked alone) I practice proper safety ensuring that no one is hurt. I take the time to get to know each fur baby that comes through my doors ensuring their needs are met. On the occasion that I need to step out I will ensure they are safe in an XXL crate, or the crate you provide. I do NOT provide care to specific breeds, including but not limited to, pit bulls, bullies, Rottweiler, German shepherds, Cane Corsos, Presa Canarios, ASTs, etc. I work a FT teacher but with that comes a teacher schedule! I'm flexible and have several off days, such as holidays, which allows me the flexibility to care for your babies during peak seasons. We have a fenced in yard that is secured by 2 locked gates. I like to go off of a similar, if not the same routine that they are used to. I send lots of pictures and videos and try to have mini photoshoots of your babies if they allow! :). We treat every fur baby as our own so much they never want to leave.
About: Hello all! My name is Ariel, like the mermaid :), and I have two years of experience caring for a wide variety of pets, from energetic dogs to independent cats. No matter the type of pet, I’m dedicated to ensuring they receive the love, attention, and care they deserve while you're away. I love animals with my whole heart so it was a no brainer to naturally gravitate towards Rover as not only a form of extra income, but a way to interact with them more regularly. I take pride in being highly attentive to each pet's unique needs, whether it's going for long walks, providing playtime and exercise, keeping meal times consistent, or offering snuggles and companionship. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority, and I’m committed to following your care instructions closely, including any special dietary needs, medication routines, or any other specifics. I also provide a google form before every booking to ensure we tailor your preferred method of care to all of your pets' specific needs! I may have only two years of experience, but I approach each pet with the same level of care and responsibility that I would for my own. You can expect regular updates and photos, so you’ll always know how your pet is doing. I look forward to meeting your furry (or feathered, or scaly) family member and providing them with the best care possible! I currently work remotely, which means I have the flexibility to provide your pets with the love and care they need without the restrictions of a typical 9-to-5 schedule. Because I work from home, I’m available during the day to give your pets extra attention when they need it most. Welcome to your pet’s home away from home! I offer in-home pet sitting at my spacious, pet-friendly house, where your furry friend will have plenty of room to relax and play. Our lower-level den is a large, comfortable space perfect for pets to explore, stretch out, and feel right at home during their stay. Your pet won’t feel lonely here—my two friendly cats love having new companions around and are happy to provide some extra company! I make sure every pet gets the attention, love, and care they need while staying in a safe, cozy environment.

About: I love all types of dogs. I’ve cared for dogs for years by watching family members’ pets/house sitting and helping care for my own family’s dogs. I treat every dog like they’re part of the family, making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I work full time Monday through Friday. Available evenings and weekends as it may fit with my life schedule. Depending on the distance, more visits may or may not be feasible. I try to stick with the dog’s normal routine, whether it includes walks or letting them out in your backyard. Also including feedings, giving medications, treat allowances, playtime, etc.
About: I have had my dog now for almost 10 years. I used to care for my dog as well as a roommates dog at one point. I can give medications and can provide First Aid/Heimlich if needed. Strong enough to hold back and tame my 60 pound Boxer mix. I’ve also helped care/walk my sisters Great Dane and my friends smaller dogs for 7 years or so. I love animals and if you have other little friends who need care, just let me know what to do and I’ll do it. I work night shift as an ICU Nurse so I’m home all day. I can pop in and check on your babies any time during the day. I would need to know in advance only cause I do eventually sleep during the day. I’m aware you are trusting me with one of the most important members of your family, I’ll be happy to leave a photo and an update of any changes , good or bad, so you can enjoy some peace of mind that everything is alright.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Midlothian
Kaelyn was absolutely wonderful, scheduled the meet and greet quickly, my fur baby, Juicy, loved her. She sent photos every day, and I could see she was so comfortable with her. Made my trip away from my Juice so much easier to tolerate. Will be booking her moving forward whenever needed. Highly recommend. Juice and I thank you, Kaelyn!
I give Iman 5 stars times 20. This is my first time using Rover and I selected Iman for home drop in visits for the week I was on work related travel. To say I was nervous is an understatement. However, from the time I met Iman I knew she was the right choice. I perceived her to be a gentle, compassionate and honest person. This was important to me considering the temperament of my fur babies. One is a rescue due to abuse and none have ever been border and I wanted them to stay in the comfort of their own home. Yes I got that vibe from just meeting her. Very positive ora and energy. Iman exceeded my expectation. My 4 fur babies took to her right away and she cared for them as I would. You can tell this is not just work for Iman it’s what she loves. She absolutely has a love for and way with animals.t antisocial cats were even drawn to her. She made sure the house was locked and secured each time and that the alarm was set. I will definitely continue to utilize her services for my fur babies. I can’t express my gratitude enough for having such an amazing and outstanding sitter. Also, they loved her dog food. ❤️

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Midlothian is $18 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $25 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 11,821 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Midlothian. 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.

- 84% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
