“Ashley was great! Our two cats needed multiple visits a day and Ashley knocked it out of the park. Our one cat is a bit skiddish, yet Ashley was patient and did everything she could to ensure the cats were well looked after. She communicated with us during her visits and went above and beyond.”
About: I volunteered at an animal shelter throughout high school and had two dogs of my own. My first dog, Daisy, was a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. I then fostered and adopted Howie, a Chiweenie, in 2020. Both have since crossed over the Rainbow Bridge, and I miss them every day. I have regularly dog sat for neighbors, friends, and even professors in college. I love all animals of all shapes and sizes and would love to take care of your furry friend! I am in the Chicago area before I move to Iowa at the end of the summer. I don’t have any other commitments and could spend all my time caring for your dogs and/or cats! I am available for a range of services from dog-walking to staying overnight! Whether you just need someone to come check in on your pet a few times a day or need someone to play with them all day long, I’m your girl.
About: I’ve helped care for my own dog for ~6 years. I also often help look after my neighbors’ and friends’ pets. A couple years ago I worked at a vet clinic and was around dogs of all temperaments, ages, and sizes. I am home for the summer from college (until mid/late August) and I have lots of availability each day of the week. I am incredibly willing to work around your schedule! I have a large fenced back yard and an older, very friendly 60 pound Australian shepherd who loves to meet and play with other dogs!
“Our puppies love Isabel. She has become a guardian angel for our furry babies. We travel often and use her services each and every time. Without her caring spirit and love for our dogs, we wouldn’t be able to travel the way we do.”
“Best cat sitter ever. Plenty of pictures, careful providing of medicines, kitty litter area spotless. She even organized Pumpkin’s cat toys! Hilarious. Will definitely use again. Thanks, Velvet!”

I love animals and love to help care for them in any way I can! I am living in LaGrange with a part time job that is flexible. Therefore, my pet-care schedule is very flexible as well. I am able to accommodate almost anything during the weekdays if needed! I have a car and am willing to travel to care for your pets, whether that is in-home care, walking them, or playing with them.

“Olivia did a wonderful job on the drop in visits for my dog. She was on time and followed my directions very well. She sent lots of pictures and took great care of him. I will be using Olivia in the future for walks, drop ins and vacations.”
“Dana was so great with my kitty who loves and needs attention. She got some outdoor time to out her little feet in the grass and lots of cuddles and belly rubs. Would definitely recommend Dana and will absolutely use her again!!”
About: Having dogs my whole life means I've pretty much seen it all. I'm comfortable with whatever your dog needs, whether that’s the patience and consistency required to help raise and train a puppy, or the quiet, gentle care needed to keep a senior dog comfortable. Right now, I'm looking for part-time dog sitting jobs before I start a full-time position this coming December. My schedule is wide open and flexible from 11:00 AM to 5:00 PM weekdays, making me perfect for midday walks or check-ins. I’ve regularly dog sat for my neighbors whenever they travel or need an extra hand. They trust me to handle everything from feeding and walking to keeping their dogs safe and comfortable in their own routine.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 12 years and truly love spending time with animals. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities and always make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I treat every dog like they’re part of my own family. All pets that come to visit us receive filtered water and we live in a non toxic house hold, we don’t use any harsh chemicals or cleaners for the safety of our little ones! I’m a stay-at-home mom, which allows me to have a very flexible schedule and be home throughout the day. Because of this, pet care fits naturally into my routine and I’m able to give pets lots of attention, playtime, walks, and regular potty breaks. I have full availability Monday through Sunday, all hours, and I truly enjoy caring for animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I live in a secure, dog-friendly high-rise with a gated dog run, sidewalks for walks, and a small grass park across the street. I have one calm, older dog who is very friendly and unbothered by other dogs. The dog run also has cleaning amenities if pups get messy after playtime. I provide a safe, calm environment with plenty of attention, exercise, and care so your dog feels comfortable and happy while you’re away
About: Hello, I have been pet sitting and dog walking since childhood. In my current home, I am not allowed to have pets, and I am really missing spending time with and caring for animals. I am so excited to play, walk, and care for your pet! :) I work full‑time, but I’m remote three days a week, which gives me plenty of flexibility for walks, drop‑ins, and consistent check‑ins throughout the day. I’m also available many weekends for pet care. Daily walks are already part of my routine, often more than once, so incorporating a furry companion into that rhythm feels natural. Whether it’s morning potty breaks, midday enrichment, or evening exercise, I make sure pets get reliable attention and a steady routine that keeps them comfortable and cared for. I pay close attention to detail and am naturally hypervigilant, which means your pet’s safety is always top of mind. Whether I’m caring for them in your home or mine, I maintain a calm, structured environment, follow your routines closely, and keep a close eye on their behavior and comfort. I’m intentional about creating a safe, clean, and low‑stress space so your pet feels secure, understood, and well cared for every step of the way.
“Grace was an absolute joy to work with! She was always on time and sending us updates/photos. Loved the photos and the pups always looked so happy. We will 100% use Graces services again!”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 10 years old, I had dogs all my life. I have worked in 2 different animal shelters as a volunteer, I have never met a dog that didn't like me right away. I will treat your best friend like my own when I get the pleasure to meet them, I can't wait to meet every one of them and you the pet owner. Mostly good people are the ones with pets that take such good care like this. I have 2 dogs myself and I will never be without at least 2. I have usually had 3. I will give your dogs the love and care that you would when you entrust them to me, I promise you that.i have the experience of taking care of 3 and 4 dogs on a daily basis for years. I have seen many different situations that can happen to dogs and know how to avoid problems and I can tell when something is wrong. I won’t hesitate to let you know if I notice anything. It’s always better to be safe when it comes to our family. I am retired now and have plenty of time to choose what I do. I enjoy nothing more than my dogs and I love working and being around other dogs. So, this is a perfect thing for me to do. it helps other good people out and I get to also take care of the best things on earth DOGS, I have almost an open schedule now so until it fills up hopefully with some sitting appointments, I'm all yours. I have an invisible fence for my yard, and it is fantastic. so, my dogs get to run freely a lot. It is actually hard to get them to go for a walk because they won't cross that boundary. clean water is something I try to keep my eye on, and depending on your feeding schedule that will be something that will determine the time I will have to be at your home. also, when your dog need to me walked and hopefully played with. If you have a fenced in yard or a certain play area that with, be great. I assume an hour or so at each house min. is probably enough time but if I find it need to be longer that's what I will do. and let you know. if you want to limit it to an hour that's up to you.
“Collette is the most kind, caring, attentive, responsible sitter! Both of our cats loved her. She is incredibly patient and our shy & overly cautious kitty even loved her. :) We will be booking her again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Oak Brook
We booked with Estefanía for her to visit our dog three times a day during our week-long trip. She was always super professional- quick responses when I texted her any last-minute requests or instructions. She also brought in our trash bins and kept our plants alive:) Bruno was happy when we got home, but definitely no stress when we were away!
Macey was amazing! She took very good care of my new puppy goose and followed all instructions! She send great overviews and photos of their time together that made me feel comfortable leaving him with her. Before the drop ins even took place, Macey made sure to make time to meet goose and us which I greatly appreciated!
Evan – A Truly Exceptional Pet Sitter Evan is the best pet sitter I’ve ever worked with. I’ve had many pet sitters and boarding places. She’s been the best & feel the safest leaving my fur babies in her care! Her type of attentiveness and care is rare. She’s taken care of my elderly dog who had medical issues and cat twice now while I was away on vacation, and every time they see her, they get excited. They don’t trust just anyone and neither do I but Evan has earned that trust completely. My dog has a history of abuse and he trusts her completely because she is so gentle with him. Every visit is thoughtful and thorough. She sends multiple pictures and detailed updates about everything: meals, water breaks, potty time, and cuddles. I always looked forward reading the drop-ins. She’s always early, stays the full time, and brings a warm, friendly energy that both pets and me. Before initially hiring her, I virtually interviewed three other Pet Sitter’s and I felt like she was the best out of all of them in the area. I’m thankful I found her. Evan is kind, and reliable! She’s helped with clean up with my cat, when my dog had missed his puppy pad, and did trash removal. I feel completely at ease leaving my pets in her care, and I’ll absolutely continue to use her services. Highly recommend Evan to anyone who wants peace of mind and happy pets! I do admit I have high standards and she naturally meets them.

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 Oak Brook 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.

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.
