Cat Sitting in Oak Park

“Katie does a fantastic job and we know we are in good hands on vaccation. She takes great care of our pet and always sends us the best photos of our cat while we are on vacation. Highly recommend!”

“Jenna has taken wonderful care of my two cats in the past while I've been vacationing. This time came up unexpectedly when a family emergency occurred and I needed to fly out in hours. She responded immediately saying she could care for them and could also let me extend the booking as needed. I'm so grateful for her kindness and the relief I felt knowing they would be well looked after.”

About: Hi! I’m a dedicated animal lover with over 10 years of experience caring for cats and dogs of all breeds, ages, and energy levels. From playful puppies and kittens to senior sweethearts, I provide personalized, attentive care that keeps tails wagging and pet parents at ease. Whether it’s daily walks, drop-in visits, or overnight house sitting, I make sure your fur baby feels safe, loved, and well cared for in your absence. I specialize in maintaining routines, handling special needs (like meds or shy pets), and giving plenty of one-on-one attention. Reliable, communicative, and truly passionate about animals—I treat every animal like family. Let’s make your time away worry-free and your pets day full of fun and comfort! Pet care is a regular and meaningful part of my daily life. Whether it’s morning walks, mid-day drop-ins, or evening playtime, I structure my schedule to ensure I’m available when pets need me most. I prioritize consistency, communication, and flexibility, which means I’m able to accommodate different routines—whether that’s a quick lunchtime walk or overnight house sitting. Being around animals every day is not just part of my routine—it’s one of the best parts of my life. I care for pets in their own home by following their usual routines—meals, walks, meds, and play—while giving them comfort and companionship in a familiar space. I treat your home with respect and keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your pet is in safe, loving hands.

“This is the first time I have had a cat sitter for my cats, and I was quite anxious as to how it would go. Amanda did a great job with my cats and really helped alleviate my apprehension. I will certainly ask for her again.”

“5 Stars +++ ! Rochelle was magnificent with my cats. They loved the attention and love she provided, and I couldn’t have been more pleased. I have found my Rover!”

Karla H.

“Rachel took care of our cat Olaf while we were out of town. Olaf usually hides with new visitors, but he immediately warmed up to Rachel! She did a great job communicating (updates, pictures, etc.) and followed the pet care plan perfectly. Couldn’t recommend her services more!”

Olivia L.

“Heather was amazing!! She sent us pictures and video every day, and gave her treats and playtime in ways our cat Lola loves. We could tell when Heather first met her how much she cares, and Lola seemed to love her quite a bit as well. We're excited to ask Heather to catsit for us in the future!”

Emily R.

“Carly was a good cat sitter, considering I have two small cats. I was able to bring them in for a meeting. They have been through quite a few events in the past 18 months—a caretaker's death, a move from a house to an apartment, and the death of a third household cat. They do not enjoy being put in their carrier, so they gave her a hard time. I would recommend her.”

Cheryl D.

“Isabella did a fantastic job with Ernie! I received lots of pictures and came home to a happy, healthy kitty! Thank you for making this a great experience ☺️”

Amber F.

“Emily watched my cat while I was away and has watched both of my pets over the years before Rover. She’s been great each time - very communicative, friendly, and my pets love her! Will definitely book again the next time it’s needed!”

About: I have 4 cats, a dog, and 3 fish tanks myself so I know a thing or two about cats and dogs. I dog sit my grandparents dog all the time, she takes meds 3 times a day so I can give any dog or cat meds if they have any. I have been around animals my whole life and I love them with my whole heart. Please consider me when you think about a dog sitter or walker! :) I work a before and afterschool job so during the summers I work 8-4 Monday and Friday and 7-1 Tuesday-Thursday, I have plenty of time after my shifts and in between to walk your dog and love on your animal. During the school year it’s a lot shorter work hours, I work 7am-9:30am, I have a break then I go back from 3:30pm-5:30 or 6pm We leash my dog when he has to use the bathroom so I always go out with him when he needs to go, he gets fed 2 times a day and a walk everyday. I feed my grandparents dog twice a day and I give her meds 3 times a day.

About: Hello, I am Ally and I'm excited to host your dog! 🐾 Please read everything before booking. 🐾 I do offer a complimentary meet and greet for new pets to ensure we are a good fit for each other! A little about me, I have had either a dog, cat or both for as long as I can remember. I am always the go-to pet sitter for friends and family and have been enjoying Rover for over 2 years. My husband and I have a roughly 6 year old male Border Collie, Chance. Chance started as foster but we decided we couldn't let him go. We recently welcomed a new kitten into our family, Lucy. I am a nurse and work Tuesday-Friday at a clinic close to home. I am generally gone about 9 hours for work. My husband comes home daily at 1230 to have lunch and let the dogs out. He works half days on Fridays as well. 🐾🐾 I try to take dogs from one household in my care at a time to ensure that I am able to provide a safe place for your pup with all the love and support they need while you are away. I do hold the right to make exceptions to this if needed. Additionally, we are unable to accommodate dogs much larger than 50 pounds. I have a fully fenced yard (4ft chain link) of about 0.3 acre so there is plenty of room for zoomies. Chance has been well socialized with many different dogs and be more than happy to keep your doggo entertained. We are also able to play throughout the day or take walks as needed. If your dog needs to be crated, we do have 2 large crates. We only crate with your direction. We understand some dogs feel more comfortable in their own crate so you are also free to bring your own. I look forward to looking after your pups while you enjoy your much deserved time away. P.s. tell your dog I said Hi 👋 ☺️

About: I have been helping petsit for family and friends for a few years now! I primarily work with cats but I've worked with dogs too. I am good at understanding what pets want and need and giving them attention. I love animals and I hope to have many pets of my own someday! I am not currently working so I have very open availability! I will have to keep clients within a close distance since I don't have a personal car and will need to be able to walk or bike. One client at once would be preferred but I may be able to make two work! I make sure to follow the instructions I am given and keep the homes of my clients clean. I give pets the best care I can through cleaning, feeding, play, and whatever else is required.

About: I have been taking care of dogs since I could remember, due to me, always having my furry friends I had to take on the responsibility of bathing, feeding, walking, as well as a little bit of training. With me having animals going up, I also took on the role of taking care of multiple litters throughout my life! That range from 6 to 12 all different breeds ranging from small to big! I really do adore any animal of all ages, even my senior dogs! Pet care is a natural part of my day—I’m an animal lover at heart, and caring for pets fits seamlessly into my calm, intentional lifestyle. Whether it’s walking dogs, checking in on cats, or giving extra love during drop-in visits, I schedule time regularly to ensure every pet I care for gets focused attention, exercise, and companionship. My flexible availability lets me prioritize pets’ needs while keeping their routines consistent and stress-free. When caring for pets in their home, I respect their familiar environment and routines to help them feel safe and comfortable. I focus on personalized attention—whether it’s feeding, administering medications, or simply being present with gentle companionship. If caring in my home, I provide a calm, clean, and cozy space with plenty of love and care, always prioritizing the pet’s comfort and wellbeing. Cleanliness, especially litter boxes or outdoor areas, is a top priority to keep their space fresh and welcoming.

About: I just moved back to Minnesota in May 2025 and will be taking on new dog clients in the north metro. I have been taking care of neighborhood pets since I was 9 as I love the bonds humans share with animals. Moving to the Atlanta area in 2018 I started pet sitting after my partner at the time lost her dog and it was a good way to reintroduce some love that only pets can provide. Fast forward to 2024 and I have a couple of pet monopolies in a few gated communities strictly from word of mouth that started with a single Rover booking. And while my 20+ clients rely on me to give their pets the care they deserve, I am now looking to take this full time and increase my client base through the end of 2024. Aside from treating your pet as my own, I like to pinpoint any trouble behavioral issues and help guide pets and their owners to smooth out those rough spots on our otherwise perfect pets. (Doorbell triggers anyone?) I deal with pets of various ailments such as those who can. have seizures. I also work with a disabled pet and with patience, help them feel just as confident as the others. And if your pet is anything like mine and terrified of thunderstorms or fireworks, I have that earned sensitivity to sit with them in a quiet place to keep them from a full panic attack. A booking with me means you will not have to worry about your favorite member of the family while away. I am back on Rover as of October 2024 to focus on pet care full time through at least the end of the calendar year. At your residence I try to keep your pets on their normal schedule when it comes to diet, exercise, bathroom breaks, and playtime. My "rental dogs" tend to get more walks with me than they do with their owners as I view it as my own gym time that the dogs also love. During overnight stays I am very respectful of client's homes and have been known to vacuum and do the guest room laundry prior to their return from vacation. I have a Toy Australian Sheppard named Vheissu (pronounced V-Sue) who lives with me half of the time, so if your dog comes over for daycare they may have a playmate.
