About: I have two dogs at home- a pugle and a lab! I love to walk my dogs and train them (+ spoil them). I also have experience with other dogs and cat sitting! I am a basketball player at AU university. I am pretty flexible around my basketball and school schedule! Weekends are a lot more flexible for longer periods of time. I love to play with dogs and take them on daily walks:) I would love to schedule a visit to get a feel for what I’m working with before I help out with your dog!
“Oh my goodness, we are so grateful for Grace! We had an out-of-town family emergency, and Grace responded right away, helped us with our first-ever Rover booking, and made us feel that our sweet pup was in great hands. Grace took great care of Lady and took extra time to play and visit with her. We came home to one happy dog!”
“Sheila did a fabulous job taking care of my four rather needy cats. She even had to give one of them eyedrop’s and was able to do this. I appreciated her photos and her updates as well as her excellent questions.”
About: I have 3 large dogs in my household, all of very different personalities. On top of that, friends and family have also relied on me to take care of their pets while they are away as well. Recently, I have taken interest in animal rescue, and have helped rescue and send an injured mallard to the Chicago Bird Collision Monitors. I am currently a student at west aurora highschool, and I am a member of the national honor society. I come home to my three dogs and sometimes go to Oswego to take care of my families pets over there as well. I will be able to regularly check up on your pets and keep them well hydrated and fed. As well as going on walks to stay active.
“Jodi was the best pet sitter I’ve ever had. She understands dogs incredibly well and went above and beyond, loving my dogs as if they were her own. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in her care. I’ll absolutely be booking Jodi again the next time we’re out of town.”
“Carolyn took such good care of our two kittens. Carolyn checked in at the time she agreed to - and she communicated great detail about each visit. She assured us that the kittens were doing well, and that our house was tidy. Her work and her attention to our kittens was really appreciated. We could not have asked for more.”
“Emma was amazing and took such great care of our cats while we were out of town! I’m SO happy i found her as we recently moved to the area. She was very friendly, communicative, and followed instructions. Emma gave us the confidence and reassurance knowing our boys were in best hands. We will book with Emma again!”
“Leslie took great care of my cats! She gave me thorough updates and asked questions when needed, and made good inroads befriending the cats (even my super-shy one). I appreciate you, Leslie!!”
“Sandra has walked our boys twice now and her service is top-notch. After our meet and greet in person with the pups, you could tell she takes a gentle, confident approach with all dogs. The two visits with our boys has been excellent. I would highly recommend Sandra to everyone.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs all my life, and recently adopted and trained a dog of my own. I have taken care of small to large dogs, and love to get my exercise in with my dogs. I am a full time student, but my weekends are completely free. I can take care of dogs later in the days on weekdays, but I would need to talk in advance about my schedule. I will always keep your puppies company and keep them enriched. They will be taken out to potty on a regular basis and plenty of time to play.
About: Hi all! I’ve watched dogs and cats of all breeds and all ages for 10+ years! I am happy to watch your babies in your home or mine. I have a fenced in backyard with plenty of space to run! I work remotely, so I’m home all day to spend time with your dog! I typically work out in the living room so I’ll be around. At my place, your dog can enjoy a fenced-in yard for safe, fun playtime. I’m all about keeping routines, so if your dog is used to crating, I’m happy to do that too.
About: I have over 3 years of professional experience in working with animals, and i’ve watched family and friends pets for as long as I can remember! I work a full time job at an animal hospital so my schedule can vary, I’m always open to discuss scheduling and time details further depending on the needs of the animal and client! I have one cat at home, my family and I rescued him from a shelter! We aren’t sure how he would do with other animals so it’s just him and he loves it! I will only be offering in home service for clients.
About: Hi! We’re a couple who genuinely love dogs. We’ve also spent plenty of time looking after our family members’ pets, so we know how much they become part of the family. We both work in healthcare, so we’re used to being patient, responsible, and paying attention to the little things. We know every dog has their own personality and routine, and we’ll do our best to keep them comfortable and happy while you’re away. We’re excited to meet some new furry friends, whether that means going for walks, playing, giving lots of belly rubs, or just keeping them company. 🐶❤️ We both work full-time in a hospital, so our schedules vary, but we’re upfront about our availability and only accept bookings we can commit to. We’ll follow your pet’s routine, give them plenty of love and attention, and keep you updated with photos while you’re away. 🐾❤️ Your pet’s safety and comfort come first! We live in a clean, cozy first-floor apartment with a safe and welcoming environment for pets. We’ll keep a close eye on your fur baby, follow their routine, and give them plenty of love, cuddles, and playtime. ❤️
“We had the pleasure of working with Erika for the first time. She arrived early, communicated well and ensured our dogs were well fed, active and comfortable. We appreciated the updates and photos. I highly recommend Erika for anyone looking for a responsible and caring sitter!”
“Jasmyn does a great job communicating, taking pictures, and I think really enjoys taking care of our dogs. We had a last minute change and were so so greatful she was able to help us out! Will definitely use again!!”
About: After growing up with pet dogs throughout my life, I became the go-to pet sitter for our neighbors/friends/family members when they headed out of town. I currently have my own gentleman giant and volunteer/foster for his rescue! There's almost nothing I haven't seen when it comes to dogs quirky behaviors, but try me! Mi casa es sus casa! I am just starting with the rover platform, so availability is open & I'm willing to discuss anything within reason. In my home pets are taken for frequent walks, and during nice weather we hang out on the patio. In other homes it would depend what you are comfortable with and what the pup is used to!
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have always been comfortable caring for them. For the past 2.5 years, my wife and I have also been dog parents to our corgi, Riley. I’m experienced with daily walks, feeding, playtime, basic routines, and giving dogs plenty of attention and affection. I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pet, and I’ll treat every dog I care for like they’re part of the family. Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine since we have a dog of our own. I also have the flexibility to work from home whenever needed, so I can be around throughout the day for walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, and plenty of attention. We have a dog-friendly home with a fenced-in yard and our friendly corgi, Riley. We’ll follow your dog’s normal routine, feeding schedule, and any special instructions you provide. We want every dog staying with us to feel safe, comfortable, and at home.

Sabrina is absolutely amazing! We've had her watch our 2 dogs and 2 cats twice now and she is so open and easy going. We were worried about our one dog being aggressive toward strangers and she reassured us that she would take things at our pups pace. She is very attentive to our fur babies and understands all of their different personalities and needs.
Elena was fantastic caring for my hybrid savannah cat while I was away. I recommend her services to anyone looking for a professional pet lover. Elena communicates effectively too, which isn’t a common characteristic. I was very comfortable having her visit my cat at our home. And I could tell my cat really enjoyed her company.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in North Aurora is $21 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $30 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 8,114 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across North Aurora. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
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 .
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in North Aurora. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
