“Sarah was great to my 2 dogs. One dog is very senior, and the other has health conditions. Sarah made sure she understood each dog’s needs, and asked questions when needed. I would highly recommend Sarah, and will be using her services again in the future.”

About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention | give every pet as if they were my own. I understand that every dog has a different personality, routine, comfort level, and set of needs, and I take the time to get to know them rather than using a one size fits all approach. I'm experienced with dogs of different energy levels and personalities, including playful, high energy dogs as well as more laidback pups who prefer a quiet, relaxed environment. I'm comfortable maintaining feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication routines, and other instructions provided by their owners. I'm also patient with puppies who are still learning and happy to provide extra attention and structure to senior dogs who may need a slower pace or additional care. Most importantly, I treat pet sitting as more than simply stopping by to feed a dog. I want your pet to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while you're away, and I want you to have peace of mind knowing they're in good hands. I'm dependable, communicative, and will happily send updates and photos so you don't feel like you're missing out while you’re away. I work from home, which allows pet care to fit naturally into my daily routine. I’m able to provide plenty of companionship, regular potty breaks and walks, playtime, and attention throughout the day rather than leaving pets alone for long periods of time. My schedule also gives me flexibility to accommodate each pet’s individual routine, whether they need frequent breaks, scheduled meals, medication, extra playtime, or simply someone nearby to make them feel comfortable. I enjoy having pets around while I work and am happy to make their care an important part of my day. Please no dropoffs before 8am and no pick ups after 8pm. Thank you 😊 Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. I want every pet to feel comfortable, secure, and treated like part of the family. I have a fenced in yard where dogs can safely enjoy outdoor time, play, and potty breaks without being exposed to traffic or other outdoor hazards. I’m also happy to follow each pet’s normal routine and any specific instructions from their owner, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and individual preferences. I keep a close eye on pets throughout their stay and make sure they have a clean, comfortable, and welcoming environment. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my home or visiting a client’s home, I treat their space, belongings, and instructions with the same respect I would want for my own pets. I’ll also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Note: If your pet is ill with a communicable sickness, please keep them home. I have two dogs in my home, and I greatly appreciate your understanding.

“Trinity was a life saver. Our house-sitter left early and locked one of our cats in the room and trinity was able to come over for a drop in last minute. She cared for our cats, sent lots of pictures and gave them all the love that we weren't able to while away. We weren't able to meet and greet before hand but during the conversation she just made us feel like she had our home and cats in our best interest! Definitely booking her for regular drop ins.”

About: As a proud Doberman owner, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members! Caring for my own dog has given me hands-on experience with daily walks, feeding routines, exercise, enrichment, and providing plenty of love and attention. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals of all personalities and sizes. I understand that every pet has their own unique needs, and I strive to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. Whether your pet needs a walk, a potty break, some playtime, or a little extra attention, I’ll treat them with the same love and care I give my own! I currently work full-time during the week, but I love making time for animals outside of my regular work schedule! I’m generally available for evening visits and walks during the week, with more flexibility on weekends. As a dog owner myself, I’m already accustomed to incorporating walks, playtime, and pet care into my daily routine. I’m happy to coordinate with pet parents to ensure their furry friends receive the attention and care they deserve! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities! I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I strive to provide the same level of care and attention that I give my own dog. When caring for pets in their homes, I make sure to follow their established routines, feeding schedules, and any specific instructions provided. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs and will always respect your home and belongings. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel reassured while you’re away!

About: Natural born dog whisperer. Wanted a Pit bull ended up with a Chihuahua. I truly believe Cuco, my dog, was my animal soulmate. Although he has since passed, I loved caring for him full time and now hope to have the opportunity to care for your pup part time. I am a patient walker — even if that means infinite stops to sniff stuff. Will always speak to them as I would to a human child. Plus, no human children in household only your pet child. Can help with potty training and social/public anxiety relief. Guaranteed good belly rubs, affection, and fresh bowl of water/food at all times under my care. I’d be thrilled to take very photogenic pictures of them and send them your way along with updates. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any additional questions and/or concerns. I am a remote employee and am home 100% of the time with your pet. Pups are welcomed to join me for a day of work, enjoy window views (bark at delivery drivers) and take all the naps desired. Sliding door for them to look outside while inside. Indoor cameras to keep an eye on pup if up to trouble from my office. Designated space in the living room, kitchen, office, and loft for them. This is our home, and we hope to make your pup feel right at home too—pups are allowed on all furniture (couches, human beds). My partner Martin also lives here—he’s a very loving caretaker of dogs and often helps keep them busy on weekends or when he’s not at work.

About: Hi! I’ve had dogs my entire life and truly understand that every pup is different. I trained my own stubborn Yorkie with patience and consistency, and I currently care for my senior Golden Retriever who has hip issues so I’m experienced with both energetic young dogs and gentle, slower-paced seniors. Whether your dog needs structured walks, positive reinforcement, or a calm and patient pace, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, understood, and happy every step of the way. I treat every dog like my own and always prioritize safety, communication, and making sure you feel completely comfortable while your pup is in my care. I’d love to meet your best friend! 🐶💛 Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I have a very open and flexible schedule. I prioritize staying active and structured in my days — I regularly go to the gym and attend Bible study — which allows me to consistently plan walks and drop-ins throughout the day. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening walks, including weekends, and I’m happy to accommodate last-minute or same-day requests when possible. As a lifelong dog owner, I understand how important trust is, and I treat every dog with the same patience and care I give my own.

About: Hi, I’m Mia! Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I’ve been caring for pets for over 10 years through dog walking, pet sitting, and daily care. I truly believe every pet has their own unique personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I’m located in the South Suburbs of Chicago and proudly serve dogs of all ages, sizes, and energy levels. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, senior dogs, large breeds, and administering medications when needed. With a flexible schedule, I’m able to provide reliable walks, drop in visits, feeding, playtime, companionship, and personalized care based on your pet’s routine. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, learning new skills, or simply relaxing with company, I’m happy to tailor my care to what makes them happiest. Safety, patience, and communication are my top priorities. I follow all care instructions closely, keep pets active and engaged, and provide regular photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own, and my goal is simple: to make sure your furry family member feels safe, comfortable, loved, and stress free in their own environment. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I have a flexible schedule. This allows me to plan my day around walks, drop in visits, feeding times, and playtime so each pet receives consistent attention and care throughout the day or week. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely to maintain their normal routine. This includes feeding schedules, walks, medication if needed, cleaning up after pets, refreshing water, and keeping their environment safe, clean, and comfortable. I also make sure doors and leashes are secured and I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior to ensure they are safe and relaxed while their owner is away.

About: We have always had dogs since i was a little girl. I am now 48, four grown children and divorced. I have the time and desire to care for other animals. Dogs love me as they are a great judge of character. I have dogs sat for weeks at a time. I enjoy playing with them as Im still a kid at heart. I don't mind a clingy animal as I love the affection. I have trained my dog to speak, high five and most recently ride with me on my Harley! I am disabled so I do not work outside the home. I wake up around 9am, let my dog out to go potty. Give him breakfast and flea prevention meds. I try to play with him in the house for twenty minutes a day. As his type of breed, he needs to burn off energy. I let him out for exercise and a bathroom rig, at least four times during the day. I put him to bed around 9pm. Some nights, he sleeps with me, other nights he gets crated. I have a fenced in yard, with room to play. My scooby enjoys playing with other dogs. Scooby gets crated when he is not supervised and sometimes overnight. I have no problem trading other pets. I do have a sleeping room for pets who are not crated. I would prefer to dog sit overnight in the client's home. I own a cleaning business with five stars. So I am well trusted in the community.

“Jane was great with our pup! She came to meet him a week before and was very accommodating. We asked her to do a few extra things (get mail and packages) while we were gone and she had no problem doing so. She sent us pictures and updates throughout the week which made us feel very comfortable. Would definitely recommend!!”

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Millsdale

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 2,335 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Millsdale. 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 Millsdale. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% 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.
