“Haven did drop in visits for us when we left for the hospital to have a baby. Penny was well cared for and happy as a clam when we returned, and Haven was super flexible with us as babies tend to come on their own timelines! Thanks so much Haven for your help!”
About: I’ve been watching dogs and cats since I was about 12. I have had cats in my home since I was born and currently care for 3 cats. I’m a college student home for the summer so I have a pretty clear schedule! I can watch pets on weekdays, nights, or weekends! I have a yard, and 3 extremely well behaved cats at home to keep your pet company. I live with my sisters who are also huge pet lovers!
“Anna was just wonderful! She came for drop-in visits and looked after my dog and cat while we were gone for 8 days. I looked forward to seeing the photos of my sweet dog on his walks and I couldn’t believe my extremely shy cat made appearances for photos, too! We were relaxed on our vacation knowing our pets were well looked after. Thank you so very much, Anna!”
“Had a really great experience with Deidre. As a nervous cat mom, she put my mind at ease while I traveled and made sure my cat was well taken care of in my absence. Plan to use her moving forward on my trips if she’s available!”
About: Pets have always been a part of our family. We are unable to have them in the home we rent but nothing says we can’t care for yours! We have three pet friendly kids to keep your pet happy and loved and a half fenced yard. Our home is about two thousand square feet and we will go on lots of walks! I have owned several dogs, cats and reptiles over the years. My fiancé has experience with rabbits as well. This is more about having pets around us than making extra money. Your pet will be cared for and shown as much attention as they desire! We do not have a crate. Please bring whatever your pet will need. Food, snacks, toys etc. Thanks!

I am an honest human being with a heart full of love and compassion. I would love to take your fur baby to the park to play and have fun, as well as a jog/walk of course, and I wouldn’t mind giving your baby a bath if need be!

Christina was absolutely wonderful! She took such great care of our dogs and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. She was kind, reliable, communicative, and treated our pups like they were her own. We loved receiving updates and could tell they were happy and well cared for. We are so grateful for her and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing Rover sitter!☺️
Mallory took such great care of my dog Bibi! She was very attentive, caring, and responsible throughout the visit. Bibi was happy, comfortable, and clearly well looked after. I really appreciated the updates and the love she showed to my dog. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!
Shannon did a great job taking care of our dog, Lucy!! It was our first time using Rover and I’m very glad it went so well. Shannon took her for lots of long walks and kept me updated on Lucy’s eating and bathroom habits. Would definitely recommend her and book again!
Valerie is fantastic! From the moment she came to meet Charley, we knew we’d found the right person. She’s kind, reliable, and great with Charley—who warmed up to her right away. We’re so happy we connected with her and will definitely be requesting her services again in the future.
Jordyn is the absolute best. She has been such an amazing help! She’s been extremely accommodating, allowing me to book long term as well as short notice. Her communication is amazing and she’s super sweet. I’d recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable dog sitter.

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 Mundelein 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.
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 Mundelein 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 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Mundelein with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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 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.
