About: I have cared for and owned dogs since I was 10 years old. As of this past year I also cared for my senior dog giving daily medication (oral and topical). I am a mostly stay at home mom. I work 2 hours a day during the school year otherwise I am home and available to care for your pet! We currently do not have any pets in our home. We have a large fenced in yard and I can also take your pet on multiple walks during the day.
“Taylor did a meet and greet before our booking. We enjoyed getting pics and updates on our dog's activites while we were away. She went the extra mile to bring in our mail. Would for sure rebook with Taylor!”
About: I had dogs growing up and my own dog in my 20's/30's in downtown chicago. Crate trained early in my dog's life. Now, I have two loving tweens who want a dog more than anything & will do walks or anything needed. Completely fenced in backyard. Very walkable suburban blocks. Will happily comply with whatever "treats" parameters you wish, food schedule needed. We only offer Rover availability when we have the days to devote to your dog. We are home-bodies at heart. Looking for a dog to be the center of our world for the few days we can offer. Your dog will be a member of our family. Easy to get out to our backyard with our sliding door off family room. We will feed your dog in our kitchen when instructed. Your dog could sleep with 1 of us in bed unless you prefer and dog prefers to be in their own dog bed/crate etc. You let us know where you'd want him/her to be.
About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for dogs, cats, and even a bunny. I've had pets of all sizes and personalities and know how important it is to have someone you trust when you're away. Whether it's cuddles, playtime, or a relaxing walk, I treat every pet like my own. Let me give your furry friend the care and attention they deserve💜 I work from home most weekdays and have flexibility to pop in and spend some time with your fur babies or stay a few hours and work from your home. I can either go to your house and spend a few minutes or a few hours depending on you and your fur babies needs. Open to options
“Love, love, love Quyn! I have 3 cats and 2 of them are horribly shy yet Quyn was able to find and photograph them. She has an incredible amount of patience and you can tell she loves animals. HIGHLY recommend and you better believe we will use her again (if she'll have us)!”
About: I credit most of my skills with taking care of dogs to my own girl, Leona. She came into my life in 2021 as a 6 month old with previous traumas. Through lots of love and training, she’s the happy and fun dog that she is today! My schedule is currently open Mondays-Fridays for dog walking, drop-in visits, and overnight sitting. I will consider weekend availability on an as needed basis. Please feel free to reach out with any questions! For drop-in visits, my services will very based on the needs of the dog. Potty breaks will always be offered during my visit, as well as some play time. I can prepare any enrichment toys your dog has and if meal time is needed, make sure they are fed. I usually like to bring dog treats so let me know if you would like me to hold off on any treats for dietary purposes.
About: My journey with animals started when I overcame my fear of dogs thanks to my neighbors’ Cane Corso and Pit Bull. From the age of 13, I cared for them regularly until I was nearly 17, and that experience sparked a lifelong passion. Since then, I am a former dog mom myself (lost my pitty to cancer), but within the 14 years I had him, I have cared for a wide variety of pets as well including cats, reptiles, rabbits, hamsters, and fish. I truly enjoy building bonds with animals of all kinds, paying close attention to their unique personalities and needs. Whether it’s playtime, companionship, or simply keeping them comfortable, I never tire of giving pets the love and care they deserve. For me, spending time with animals isn’t just a job, it’s my favorite thing to do. I work full-time during the week and am off on weekends, but your pet will never be left alone. I live with family, and we all participate in sittings and boardings to ensure constant care and companionship. We only welcome one boarding at a time in our home, so your pet receives our full attention and a calm, stress-free environment. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’m a reliable communicator and provide regular photo updates so you can see your pet thriving while you’re away. My home is pet-friendly, secure, and welcoming your pet will be treated like family.
About: With years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all shapes and sizes, I provide reliable, compassionate, and personalized pet care. From daily walks to overnight stays! Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine. Having an 11 month old golden, I schedule my days around walks, feedings, and playtime. I hope to extend these services to your furry friend! I treat every pet like family—ensuring their safety, comfort, and happiness every step of the way. With every service provided, I aim to provide a healthy, fulfilling experience for them.
About: I have loved and cared for animals for most of my life. Growing up surrounded by pets taught me how important patience, kindness, and attention are to their well-being. I understand that every pet has its own personality and needs, and I always strive to provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment. I enjoy spending time with animals, taking walks, playing, and making sure they feel happy and cared for while their owners are away. I look forward to meeting you and giving your pet the same love and attention I would give my own. Caring for animals is something I truly enjoy and take seriously. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their families are away. I moved to another country because of the war in my homeland, and spending time with animals has become especially meaningful to me, as I deeply miss the connection I had with them before. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment. I follow each pet’s routine, make sure they get plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection, and I always prioritize their safety and well-being. 😀
About: We’ve been caring for family and friends’ dogs and puppies for 14 yrs, We have potty trained puppies, taught them to sit, wait patiently for food, and other fun tricks. Most importantly they get a lot of attention and love. We want to make sure they feel as comfortable as possible while away from home, creating the perfect home away from home! We both work from home, so rest assured that someone will be around with your furry loved one. We will make sure they have several potty breaks, timely feeding, and are well taken care of. Your furry loved one will be in the house where we keep a close eye at all times. We also use gates periodically to close off sections of the house, especially while feeding, if necessary. We have a fenced yard where they can run around in which we usually also keep a close eye while they are out
“Rebekah was on time, patient with my anxious doggo even offering to come back later if needed. I appreciated the communication throughout the drop-in visit and the many pet pictures. Pets were left happy.”
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.
“Jenny is so great with our dog and our puppy! We have loved using her the last few weeks and will continue to use her for as long as possible! We look forward to her pictures and detailed updates every time. Thanks Jenny!”
“Caroline always goes above and beyond! Even when they got injured the week of their stay, they managed to fulfill their duties to our pets and send pictures and updates. Thank you, Caroline!”
About: I’ve always had dogs in my family while growing up. We’re very much dog people. I’ve helped neighbors, friends, and families with watching/walking their pets. I currently work a hybrid 8 am - 4 pm schedule in Northbrook, IL. I live in the northern part of the city with access to a car and public transit. I have open availability on weekend days. I have availability in my schedule for evenings on weekdays. On these days I will be available starting at 5pm. I can be very flexible if needed! So please reach out if there is a day that I may look unavailable, I may be able to help you out! I would love to meet your fur-babies <3 I will always use a harness/leash while walking dogs, I feel comfortable letting them loose in a controlled and fenced area. Will follow any requirements/requests for your dog.
“Stephen and Donna did an excellent job walking our Great Pyrenees mix several times over a few weeks. You could feel their love for dogs from the moment we met them and they were very communicative and kind throughout the whole process. Our boy enjoyed and looked forward to his walks with them and we would definitely recommend and use their services in the future.”
About: I have been a career nanny in Chicago for the last 10 years- which gives me a ton of experience caring for not only my families children but also their pets!! I will be home full time in the fall as my current families kiddos are heading to full day school! My son is officially a big kid & ready for his pre K-4! Rather than looking for a new family I’d love to try something new- animals have been a big part of my life, my entire life! My Pomsky pup Yogi is the BEST playmate- he currently goes to day care and has had a dog sitter since we brought him home last year! He loves all people and animals and would truly love to play with any doggy friend! We are in a 2 Flat with a fenced in yard- yogi and I go on hour long walks in the neighborhood & frequent dog parks in the city! Happy to include doggy field trips if you are looking for that service- a tired pup is a happy pup!!! But also happy to hang home and allow play in the front yard or nearby walks😆 happy to travel for walks and care in your home as well! Extremely flexible and will have a lot of free time in the upcoming months! Look forward to chatting soon!
About: I currently own two doggies, and have been a caretaker for 16 years. They are the most precious animals and I couldn't imagine my life without them. Someone told me once that I can't pet all the dogs I see, and I said watch me😎 I'm currently staying at home so my schedule is pretty open. I already take care of two dogs at home so adding a third or fourth wouldn't be a big deal. I have a fenced in yard and both of my doggies are well socialized and like to hangout with other dogs. At a client's home I follow whatever instructions are needed.
The median cost per visit for dog sitting in Morton Grove is $20

Donna and Stephen were absolutely fantastic with Jax! From the moment I left him, I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in such caring and attentive hands. They treated Jax like he was one of their own, and I especially loved receiving pictures throughout his stay. Seeing how happy and comfortable he was gave me such peace of mind and let me know he was being well cared for and having a great time. It means so much to find people you can truly trust with your fur baby, and Donna and Stephen are definitely those people. Jax gives them five paws! 🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾 I would absolutely recommend them and will definitely be using them again. Thank you both for taking such wonderful care of Jax! ❤️
Elva was great with my dogs! She is professional, reliable, always on time, and truly cares about making sure my babies get the most out of their visit. I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in such good hands, and they were always happy and well cared for after spending time with her. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!
We had Nicholas care for our dog and four cats while we were away, including administering medication twice daily for one of our cats. Overall, he was reliable and made sure everyone was fed, cared for, and safe. We appreciated the photos and updates during visits. Our dog did get spooked during one walk due to a loud car and had a harder time going out after that, so more backyard time was used. There was an accident during one of the visits, which he handled and cleaned up, and we appreciated that. Overall, we’re grateful our pets were well cared for and would book again.
The best pet sitter. Rosy literally just saved my cat’s life, when she noticed he was not his usual self, took him to the vet, where they identified he had a urinary blockage and likely just hours to live. How lucky for us that Rosy was caring for our animals and so observant. Thank you, forever. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Morton Grove choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .
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 , 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 .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
