About: I’ve grown up taking care of all sorts of animals, from dogs and cats to fainting goats. My mother is a veterinarian so I’ve grown accustomed to many animals other than my own and have learned how to properly care for them. I frequently dog and cat sit for family and friends. I also walk dogs at an animal shelter in my free time. I’ve had both of my dogs since they were puppies and have experience with dogs and cats of all ages and energy levels! I’m in school and work part‑time, which means I’m mostly available in the afternoons. I’m always willing to adjust my schedule with advance notice to best meet your pet’s needs. Your pet’s comfort and safety are always my top priorities. I follow your specific instructions and routines closely so your pet feels happy, secure, and loved while you’re away.
“Oh my goodnessthese people were so wonderful. I did not worry about a thing with them!!! Linda came beforehand to meet Charlie and was perfect with him!! He's an old fella and she was just so sweet. I highly recommend them!!!!”

About: Hi!! I’m currently a grad student looking to fill my time during my weekdays/weekends when I’m not in class :) I have experience working with young puppies, as well as helping train service dogs in training for 4 years. I also have a family dog who is 5 years old and a retired service dog!! I am happy to help with dropping in while you’re at work or on a trip :)) I am currently in grad school some weekday evenings so most of my availability is during the day!! I also work in retail so I have some weekends open depending on my schedule!! I will always ensure I am providing the best care for your pets, whether I’m just checking in, letting them out, or taking them on a walk. I’m aware of how to handle different behaviors, being around other animals, and of course will always respect your animal and space :)
About: Hello, my name is Lissa. I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember and I regularly take care of friends and family’s pets while they are away. I’ve volunteered with the animal shelter for a little over a year and am happy to take care of some new furry friends! I do work full-time but have a hybrid schedule. Currently, I am available all day on Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays. I have flexibility on most other weekday evenings too! I am also happy to spend lots of time playing with your pet and will send picture and video updates of how they are doing!
“I know Millie is in good hands when Jessica comes over. Jessica will always leave me a note and pictures of Millie which I am grateful for. She is reliable and prompt and takes great care of our fur baby.”


About: I currently have a cat of my own -Ozzy- and have cared for him for the past three years, giving me a lot of experience with feeding, keeping routines, playtime, litter box care, and paying attention to changes in behavior or mood. I previously worked at a pet store where I helped care for shelter cats up for adoption. This gave me the opportunity to work with cats with different personalities and comfort levels and taught me the importance of patience and letting each animal come to you at their own pace. In anddition, I’ve also cared for my neighbors' pets over the years, including cats, dogs, birds and rabbits while they were away. I grew up with dogs and have experience walking and caring for them, as well as growing up with hamsters and birds. While I'm not comfortable handling birds directly, I'm happy to help with basic care such as feeding and cage cleaning. Working late? I’ve got you! I work a full time office job, so my most reliable weekday availability is early mornings for check-in visits and after 4 pm for dog walks and check-ins. Rain or snow? No problem! I’m happy to get outside for your dog’s walk as long as conditions are safe for both me and your pup! I’m also available Saturday/Sunday mornings and afternoons, with evenings varying from week to week. Feel free to reach out even if your schedule doesn’t perfectly match my usual availability as I’m happy to see if we can make it work. For weekday mornings or earlier afternoon visits, I may be able to accommodate requests with a few days notice depending on the location. I’m especially flexible around the Downers Grove area. My goal is to find a schedule that works for both of us and, most importantly, keeps your pet happy and well cared for. I know how important our pets are to us, and I want you to feel confident that yours is in caring, dependable hands while you're away. I'm a calm and attentive caregiver who takes the time to learn each pet's individual personality, routine, and needs. For check-in visits, I can provide fresh food and water, litter box cleaning, playtime, and oral medication (pills only—no injections). I’ll also send you a photo and update during each visit so you know how your pet is doing. I’m mindful that I’m also a guest in your home. I clean up after myself, keep your pet’s food, toys, and supplies where they belong, and leave things as I found them. I believe clear communication is an important part of building trust, so I’ll follow your instructions carefully and let you know if I notice anything unusual with your pet. At this time, I offer check-in visits and dog walking rather than boarding.
“Sarah was absolutely wonderful! I’m such an anxious, helicopter dog mom and she was so communicative, kind, and really put my mind at ease! She was so detailed through the entire thing- letting me know when she was on her way, giving me a recap of her time, and sent lots of pictures! 12/10 recommend hee!”


“Gabrielle did such an amazing job with our anxious attachment kitty! Our cat tends to not eat when we are not there, but Gabrielle's visits made our cat feel calm and supported. All her food was eaten! Our cat showed no signs of sadness or anxiety upon our return. Thank you, Gabrielle!”

About: I own a weenie dog named George. I love this guy to the moon and back. My husband won’t let me get another one, so I’ll love on yours! I used to dog sit in my home, I had 8 dogs at once, a few summers ago. I am happy to walk them, hang with them, and spoil. One of my favorite clients was a one eyed pitbull named Jack, and his boxer brother named Claude. I have always had Dogs growing up, I am such an animal lover. We have also had pet rats, birds, bunnies, and hermit crabs! I can provide excellent references. George the Wiener is my biggest supporter. Just don’t tell him I am leaving him for the day for your pup! We also have an adorable Dutch Bun, named Bun, a gold fish we won at a carnival 6 years, named Carnival Fish, and a bearded dragon named Harold! I work remotely, so I can work from YOUR home while I get to cuddle with your pets.I have reliable transportation and excellent work ethic! I am definitely a cuddler when it comes to pets. I promise yours will be just as spoiled as mine while you are away for the day or week!
“Giedre is so incredible!! We have now used her twice - she’s very communicative and is extremely responsible! We will use her for all our future needs! Bella loves her as well! ♥️”
“I just got home to the happiest kitties - Amelia was great! She’s an excellent communicator and I’m grateful that someone so caring was here for the cats while I was away. Thank you, Amelia!”

About: I have been around and taken care of animals my whole life but had dogs, cats, guinea pigs, birds and rabbits at times throughout my adult life. I am an empty nester that now lives in an apartment. My fiance and I also travel at times for work, so we are unable to have a dog of our own due to the travel which can be unpredictable at times. I would love to get my animal “fix” but also get some extra exercise. I am a very empathetic person and would take care of your furbaby like it was my own! I work full time from home but have some flexibility with my work, which is why mornings and late afternoons are great. I might be able to provide some care in the middle of the day but would have to be scheduled ahead of time. I do travel some for work but I know my schedule weeks ahead of time. I would not be able to care for pets in my own apartment but can come to your house to care for your pets. I have been in the medical field for over 27 years. I am extremely trustworthy and treat peoples homes, property and fur babies with the same care that I would give my own, if not more.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Naperville
Stephanie did an amazing job with our dogs. We were very nervous because we have never left the dogs before. She made sure they were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Communication was excellent, and we really appreciated the updates and photos throughout the visits. It gave us peace of mind knowing our dogs were in such good hands while we were away. Reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring. We would absolutely book again and highly recommend!

Bonnie was great. She was available for a drop in On short notice. She messaged when she arrived, sent a picture and hand fed my 17 year old cocker spaniel. She will be house sitting my dog and cat toward the end of the month so I'll be able to enjoy my vacation knowing that they will be well cared for.

Summer was such a great sitter for my dog, easy to communicate and extremely friendly to my dog. Kept me updated and send me such cute pictures and videos. I can tell my dog really had fun and was given a lot of love. Definitely will contact again !!! Was so kind to also take care of my dog last minute. Thank you so much Summer!

We have used Tori twice now for extended periods, and we couldn’t be happier. Caring for two senior dogs requires a lot of patience and attention to detail. Tori was incredibly observant of our dogs' mobility limits, ensuring walks were gentle and never rushed. We especially appreciated the consistent photo updates. It’s such a relief to find someone so reliable who treats our older pups with such kindness. We highly recommend Tori!

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 Naperville 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!
