About: I’ve loved and cared for animals since I was young and continue to care for my senior cat whom I’ve had for the last 12 years. I have experience walking dogs ranging from small to large sizes, and live near a forest preserve trail that would be perfect for their walks! Friends and neighbors have also relied on me to do drop-in feedings as well. I work full-time, 4 days a week, evening shift. So I am available most mornings and have a pretty flexible 3-day weekend schedule. I live in a building complex that has a fenced in little dog park for your pup to run around in. I’m also near a forest preserve trail if they prefer longer walks to explore nature. Cats will have a safe, quiet space to stay with a large window to sun bathe in the mornings and cozy blankets to snuggle in.
“Super sweet. Definitely my new designated cat sitter. My kitties love her!!! Attentive and communicative. You can tell she loves all the pets she watches.”
“Mia was an absolutely wonderful cat sitter! From the very first visit, it was clear she genuinely cares about animals — my cat warmed up to her quickly and was clearly comfortable in her care. Mia was reliable and punctual every single visit, and she kept me updated regularly with photos and notes, which gave me such peace of mind while I was away. She went above and beyond with little extra touches that showed real attentiveness. I'd recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring cat sitter.”
“Emilee was awesome. She's super professional, and very warm and friendly and the cats were definitely pampered. She sent me several cute photos of the cats during her stay and when I got home they were so chill and the house was immaculate. I would highly recommend her.”
About: We've had dogs and cats in our family for years and miss hearing the patter of paws! We treat our pets well and enjoy playtimes and grooming dogs. Either my son or I are home to be with your pet. I work part time and my son is here when I work. He is working on his master's in business and loves to walk and play with the dogs. We do not have any pets of our own at present. This is a pet friendly home and yard on a quiet cul de sac. We dog sit other family members pets at time. Dogs are welcome in most rooms of the house.
“From the very first meeting, Kim gave us such a good feeling. It meant so much to see Loki not confined, but happily staying with her and interacting with her kids—it truly felt like a home away from home. We’re so grateful and will absolutely be coming back to her again. Kristine”
About: I’ve been caring for pets of all ages—from playful puppies to gentle seniors—for over 20 years, and it’s something I truly enjoy. I know how much your pet means to you, and I strive to care for each one with patience, kindness, and attention. My hope is that your pet feels comfortable, loved, and at ease while you’re away. I offer house sitting and in-home care so your pet can stay in the comfort of their own home and keep their usual routine. I enjoy quiet, steady walks and always stay aware of our surroundings, making adjustments based on your pet’s needs and comfort level. Every walk and care routine is tailored to your pet’s personality, pace, and preferences. I also understand how hard it can be to be away from your furry family member, so I’m happy to send plenty of photo updates and messages to help you feel connected and reassured. You can trust that your pet will be cared for gently and thoughtfully, just as if they were my own. I'm employed full time with a flexible work from home schedule which will allow for me to care for your pet during the day (my breaks) as well as longer walks on my lunch break. I can also work with your schedule to do earlier morning shifts or later after work shifts. I have a puppy at home that we're still training, so I'd keep your pet close to your home/yard. I would ensure their safety by making sure to keep a tight handle on their leash as I look for upcoming obstacles (other dogs, kids, people, etc.) to make sure they're going to be ok on their walks. I would also closely monitor them as they go outside in their yard.
About: Angela and Steve have had several decades of taking care of pets, and they currently have two dogs and two cats. Angela has previously worked for Bark Place in Rogers Park, as well as taking care of friends' and family's pets. We're predominantly available on weekends, but can be at your place by 6 pm on weekdays. We're flexible and will work with you to ensure we meet your needs. We will treat your pets and home as if they were our own and ensure we don't miss any details. We will not treat our visits as just a job, but as a way to ensure your pet feels comfortable while you are away.
About: I’ve had dogs in my household quite literally since birth. I’ve cared for animals since I was a small child. I have also fostered a dog. I have a hound mix named Mila and a cat named Cindy Lou. I raised both since they were very young so I have experience with caring for a puppy and a kitten. I just have a genuine deep love for animals. I just left my last job in search of something more fulfilling so my schedule is extremely flexible at the moment, so my availability has a lot more to do with when I am needed. My animals are like babies. They really, truly are my family. So please know that I don’t underestimate the importance of caution when dealing with the safety of other people’s fur babies.
“This was our second time having Lisa sit for our cat and everything went perfectly again. The communication is always great and our cat gets along great with Lisa. We will book again!”
About: I have had cats, dogs, and fish for the past 15 years. I have boarded, walked, and sat many animals including the ones listed above. I have also done feedings and administering medications. I always like to get detailed notes and a walk through of the care you need so the pets are well taken care of throughout my time with them. I am currently open to any times and days. I am in school and am doing it completely online and asynchronous. I can work with you separately to figure out the best schedule. I am always wanting a walk through and detailed sheet of paper describing schedules and everything I need to know. I will also send frequent updates including pictures. I have administered medications before and ask to be shown how to administer so they don’t miss a day.
About: I love animals. Growing up with pets of all kinds I learned to appreciate them and recognize their needs. I know the importance of bonding with them and find great joy in forming that bond. I did domestic care for four years and my primary job was tending to the animals. I am trustworthy and caring and I will put the needs of your pet first. Every time. I have made pet care my priority. I presently work full time in pet car. I also love pet photography and offer that as a service I am available on a drop-in basis and I can make myself available for overnights and extended stays as well. Whatever you need, don't hesitate to ask. I have cleared my schedule to make myself available to tend to dogs and cats full-time. I will walk your dog or simply hang out with your pet, whichever you need. I will build a trust with you, and your pet will know. I look forward to meeting you. I am very conscientious and responsible. I lost my own dog of 14 years and this has opened the door for me to be able to tend to your dog or cat. I can only offer the same loving care that I showed my own dog.
“thanks for taking care of my babies! i literally couldn’t have asked for more; great communicator, lots of pictures, and went above and beyond in terms of caring for them.”
“Joanna was great. She obviously loves cats and knows a ton about them, which made me very comfortable leaving her in charge of my 2 guys. She sent me updates including video clips of her engaging and playing with the boys every day. Would definitely rebook”
About: I've always taken care of my dogs growing up. My dog right now requires a very in depth feeding and medication regimen. She is 13 years old and has a special diet with a very timed out schedule for her medications. I also have experience with young dogs/puppies. I have lots of experience with older cats and a little with kittens, but not a ton. I work in food service during the day, so I have tons of time in the afternoon/evening and night to care for your pets! I can also move my schedule around if needed I've had dogs throughout all my life that have had vastly different temperaments, so I know how to care for animals of all kinds.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Morton Grove
Jiayi was terrific! She kept Me updated with excellent photos of the cats and chores completed, feeding, litter, taking in mail. She was very thorough with daily communication. The Cats are happy and calm and the house is as I left it. I would definitely use her again!
Tiffany checked in on my cat, Tofu, while I was gone on a week long trip. She was very communicative and sent lots of cute pics. She brought an issue with our automatic feeder to our attention and went above and beyond to help us trouble shoot the issue. Tofu loved Tiffany and we will be booking her again in the future

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Morton Grove is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $23 and $39 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.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
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.

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.
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.
