“Sarah was amazing with our cat! She did an amazing job caring for him and following his preferred schedule. She is a great communicator and will be watching him again soon!”
“Bonnie is absolutely wonderful! She took such good care of my little puppy that I needed to be checked on since he’s so small. And my other two dogs loved her as well! Highly recommend 😊”
About: As a dedicated cat owner, I know that every cat has a unique personality and routine. I have experience caring for kittens, adult cats, and more timid or anxious cats, and I’m comfortable with feeding, medications (if needed), litter box maintenance, enrichment, and giving pets the patience they deserve. I’ll make sure your cat feels safe and cared for while keeping you updated with photos and messages throughout each visit. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide dependable drop-in visits throughout the week. I understand that cats thrive on consistency, so I do my best to keep their routine as close to normal as possible. Whether your cat needs a quick check-in, feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, or extra attention, I’ll make sure they receive personalized care and plenty of updates while you’re away. Your cat’s comfort and safety are my top priorities. During each visit, I’ll follow your care instructions carefully, make sure food and water are fresh, clean the litter box, and spend quality time playing or simply keeping your cat company (whatever they enjoy most.) I’ll also keep an eye out for any changes in behavior or health and send detailed updates with photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Peyton was so great with our kitties! They loved seeing her while we were out of town and came out of their shells with her calm demeanor. Thank you so much, Peyton! Will 100% rebook when leaving town in the future!”
“Ashley did a fantastic job sitting for my two cats over almost a full two-week timeframe. I have never felt this at ease with a sitter and was really able to relax on my vacation. Timely, respectful, and my cats warmed up to her immediately. I'll never hesitate to rebook!”
“Amy is wonderful !! This was my first time using this service . My dog is a 15-year-old Chihuahua and i was very nervous that my dog would be scared, but Amy was wonderful with her. There is nothing like peace of mind while you were on a trip, knowing that your animal is being well taken care of . She also kept me updated with pictures and texts of my dog. I will absolutely be calling on Amy in the future!!”
About: I've been so tremendously lucky to have several dogs come into my family over the years become my everything. No two a like in the slightest: mixed breeds from small to large, gentle and slow to rough and tumble. Each one through their own ways thought me just how important it is to understand the uniqueness in an animal, love it completely and care specifically for their individual needs. I am very flexible with my personal schedule and love to use my time to make sure your baby is well cared for when you need it most! My care service runs by a simple idea, I'm not just here for a single task I'm here to be your pets personal concierge. From the moment I walk in the door and not until well after I leave, my Job is to make sure your loved one is taken care of, safe, and of course happy as can be.
“We had Madison do drop in visits and would definitely book her again. She did a great job following our instructions and was timely in her visits. Additionally, she was communicative and gave consistent updates. I would highly recommend booking with Madison!”
“Fantastic! Pre-booked Lynn a few weeks out, new to rover myself. We had a nice meet and greet a few days before my trip...feeding guidelines, she offered to clean her box and even water my plants! Very personable and attentive. During my trip she sent me pictures of little miss kitty, which was a nice touch. Very fluid, no issues, great experience! Certainly plan on using Lynn in future and recommending to my community!”
“Heather took excellent care of my cats while I was out of town, sending detailed notes and great photos with each visit. I could tell she spent a lot of time with them beyond the basic cleaning and feeding tasks. She gave me peace of mind during my trip and I will definitely book her again!”
“Glen did an excellent job taking care of Coco. He gave her a walk, made lunch and all the required water and bathroom breaks. We will leave coco again under the excellent care of Glen.”
“Stephanie was simply incredible. I was so hesitant to leave my dog Suki but we had to travel for a wedding and needed to be gone for a few days. I found Stephanie and she was super responsive from the beginning. When I met her I felt that Suki would be in good hands and she absolutely was. Stephanie went above and beyond by sending me a daily report and so many pictures, every time. She made me feel so at ease - I could not have had a better experience. Stephanie was worried about my pup being on her own during 4th of July with the loud fireworks and she offered to bring Suki in for that night so she wouldn't be on her own. Only someone who truly understands and cares for animals would do that. She is seriously a superstar and I cannot recommend her enough!”
“Shqipe was Fantastic with our dog, Molly. She gave her walks, lots of love and attention, all with a pretty last minute notice, that we needed help watching Molly this past few days. We will definitely look to recommend and ask for her help if we need someone to watch Molly in the future again!”
About: I have walked dogs for a very large part of my life. I spent a summer a couple years ago walking my neighbor's dog, and I spent a year and a half volunteering at the Naperville Area Humane Society where I cleaned kennels, socialized with dogs, and took the dogs out for walks. This means I have experience handling dogs who are a little stressed out, or who are unfamiliar with me. I am available all days of the week over the summer, unless I am traveling. I am willing to spend as much time as needed with your dog each visit. My experience at the shelter means I am able to listen and understand your dogs needs. If they are uncomfortable in a situation, I know how to get them out of it.
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.
“Luis was very professional and punctual. Left good and personable notes and plenty of photos. I felt that Luis was genuine and really cared for my pet and I wasn’t worried at all while I was away for four days.”
About: My expertise and background lie in zoo and wildlife biology. For the past 10+ years, I’ve worked with a number of reputable animal and wildlife properties, including shelters, nature centers (e.g., Indiana Dunes State Park and Lyman Woods Interpretive Center), wildlife rehab. facilities (e.g., Willowbrook Wildlife Center), and zoological societies (e.g., Safari Lake Geneva). I have an unparalleled passion for animals of all breeds and species, possessing direct experience with the following: dogs, cats, rodents, herps, birds, malacostracans, arachnids, and various hooved mammals (horses, giraffes, camels, donkeys, zebras, antelope, etc.). Our family has also owned a diverse array of critters, great and small; my husband and I have been proud rat parents (very heartbreaking that they only live a few years) and are current rescue parents of a leopard gecko, bearded dragon, and albino Florida kingsnake! As a part-time sitter, I am well-versed in walking, bathing, feeding, and administering medication. For the time being, I am working through Rover part-time on my days off. What better way to spend my free time than to love on pets? :) I’m happy to walk, bathe, feed, and provide medication if need be to your pet. I especially enjoy playtime (e.g. fetch) whether within my client's home, in a fenced-in yard, or at a local park.
“I have a very shy kitty. I was shocked when she warmed up to Jessica so immediately. When I returned home, I found the litter box clean and a very happy cat. I would be happy for her to stay with my cat any time.”
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Naperville is $20
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Naperville
Amy was wonderful to work with -- when severe thunderstorms rolled through, kept us up to date about the state of the house while we were away. Having two similar-looking cats with different dietary needs can be difficult to keep track of, but she met the challenge with aplomb.
Jennifer has been such a great find on Rover. She was so invested in the care with my cat even before the cat sitting started, taking notes , preparing ahead of time . She has such a warm, friendly and kind approach when you meet her , even in our messages prior to the meet and greet . She sent thorough daily reports and 4-5 pictures a day which was so fun to see . I’m very confident in using Jennifer again for Rishi and feel so lucky to have found her !!
If you need a sitter look no further! Daily routines fine tuned to your fur-baby's needs with an extra dose of love and care--Nicolle is your next booking. She will truly take time to listen to your needs and make sure you leave with peace of mind that things will continue to go smoothly in your absence. She can handle the unexpected challenges that come with animal and home care like surprise messes and clean up to administering medicines. Nicolle goes out of her way to keep you updated with progress while you're away. We feel grateful and lucky to have had her in our home caring for our kitty while we were away. Thank you Nicolle!!
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!
Nina did a wonderful job taking care of our two cats and fish. Both of our cats are on medications with one getting daily injections, and she handled those with no issues. She also looked after my fish, in a high tech aquarium, providing daily video clips so I could monitor things while away. We definitely recommend Nina and will use her again.
Our cat was happy and healthy when we returned. Jessica went above and beyond carrying a heavy box into our house that was delivered the first day we were away. It was a valuable item and would have been at risk if it had stayed on the porch until our return.

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 Naperville 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.
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.

- 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
