“Amy is the best! Great communication and she helped us with a few house issues while we were away too. We felt great knowing our fur baby was in good hands. We’ll definitely book Amy again!!!!”
“We had reached out to Kirstin last minute and she could not have been nicer or more accommodating plus she was great with our silly boy, Mosley. She sent us updates and pictures each time she dropped in for a visit. Her communication regarding Mo was just what we needed to feel comfortable, that he was being well taken care of while we were away. Additionally, Kirstin was quick to respond to all of our messages (before, during and after our trip). We highly recommend Kirstins’ pet sitting services and look forward to booking with her again in the near future! Thanks Kirstin!🐾”
“Even after a snowstorm, Brooke showed up for my two cats! Very dependable and great communication! I used Rover because my original sitter bailed at the last minute. It was easy to set up and communicate with people nearby to help out! Brooke came through first and I was so relieved! I am so grateful and would definitely ask her again!”
“Very thankful to have met Kim to look after my dog! She is trustworthy, caring, and nice, so I always feel more than confident leaving my 100+ pound pitbull mix with her. She gives plenty of updates and is always quick to respond. She will treat your pet like her own and will be in good hands while you’re away so I highly recommend and will continue to use her in the future! Thanks again Kim.”
About: Hi! I grew up with cats since I was a baby. I have experience from kitten to older cats. I also have experience with dogs. I have watched a family member’s dog when needed. I have experience with puppy to older dogs. Hi, I am currently working at a school in Dresher. I’m available during the week starting around 7pm. And, I’m available all day on the weekends! I cannot watch dogs at mine and can only go to you! I am more than happy to house sit and/or walk your pets!
“Alicia was fantastic! She came over ahead of time for a meet and greet and we instantly knew Rila was going to be in good hands. Alicia was comfortable with Rila’s injections and all the nuances of caring for blind/deaf/diabetic senior dog. She had great communication, shared multiple pictures and updates throughout the day, and was able to stick to Rila’s strict schedule. We’re always nervous leaving Rila, but felt at ease knowing Alicia was taking care of her like her own. We would use Alicia again for all our pet sitting needs! Highly recommended.”
“Hannah did a great job caring for our 2 cats. She followed instructions well and is super friendly. Our boys were well cared for. One of our cats has diabetes and needs insulin given subdermally via syringe, along with oral meds, and Hannah did well with administering those. Very reliable, kind sitter. I would highly recommend Hannah!”
“Meghan was amazing! Reliable, caring, and very attentive. She made sure everything was taken care of and gave our cats great company while we were away. We came home to happy cats and a clean space. Highly recommend her!”
“Jiayao was great with my Saint Bernard and two cats. Always on time with her visits and she made connections with each of them and took extra good care of them! I definitely recommend her!”
“Once again, Delaney rocks with walking and sitting with our Bailey boy and Dabby cat. Don’t know how I’d get by without her! TYSM, Delaney! (If you’re reading this and deciding, contact her now! On second thought, we might need her… She’s great!!)”
About: I had a dog as a child. I have had dogs for over 35 years. They are great company and a great addition to any family. I am retired. My time would be totally devoted to spending time with your pet(s). I look forward to giving you the comfort that your pets are well-cared for while you are not home. My pets at home are pretty spoiled. They are not crated and we play inside and outside. Whatever the owners require is what I will do. Unfortunately, my most recent dog died of cancer. I miss her; but look forward to taking good care of other people’s pets.
About: I have always had a strong love for animals and enjoy being around them. I currently have a bunny, a dog, and a bird, and I have also cared for many reptiles in the past. I have experience working with dogs at a dog daycare, where I helped care for, feed, bathe, play with, and give attention to the dogs. Animals genuinely make me happy, and I love spending time with them and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Animals are a big part of our everyday routine! We love spending time with our dogs by taking them on walks, playing with them, giving them lots of attention, and of course, plenty of cuddles. We make sure our pets get the care, exercise, and love they need throughout the day, and we really enjoy making them feel happy, comfortable, and part of our family. I always prioritize pets’ safety and comfort by keeping a close eye on them, following their routines and instructions, using leashes when needed, making sure they have fresh water, and keeping their environment clean and secure.
“My cats really enjoy having heather come take care of them. They love all the love and attention she provides while she is here. They are getting more used to her each time she comes to check on them.”
“Allie did an amazing job looking after our 3 cats; Kimchi, Miso, and Bento! Kimchi suddenly needed medicine right before our trip and Allie had no issues giving him his pills. The daily pictures were awesome and she even took Kimchi out for walks on his harness, which was totally unexpected but he loved! Great job looking after our cats. We would absolutely book again and recommend to others”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Oak Park
Amy was wonderful with Sylvester! He is usually slow to warm up to new people, but he was great with her the first time she came for our Meet & Greet. She followed all feeding directions perfectly and sent detailed report cards with great pictures and even a video. It was clear she spent time with him, playing with his toys and making sure he was all set between visits. I have a lot of business travel coming up this fall, and I'm so glad I found Amy as I am totally confident in the care she will provide for Sylvester. Rebooking her now for my next trip.
Delaney was absolutely wonderful! She took amazing care of my two very shy cats while I was away for a week. I was so impressed with her patience and kindness, and it was clear she genuinely cared about making them feel comfortable. She also went above and beyond by bringing in my mail and packages, which I really appreciated. Coming home to happy, well-cared-for cats and knowing my home had been looked after gave me complete peace of mind. Delaney is dependable, thoughtful, and you can tell that she truly loves animals. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional pet sitter, and I will definitely be booking with her again!
Emma was fabulous. I was away for 10 days and she did drop ins on my cat Mittens. She went above and beyond by bringing in my mail and watering my plants. She messaged me daily along with a photos. It is a relief to have met Emma and know that when I am away in future I can leave my pet without worry. You will not be disappointed if you book with Emma!
Fozia is hands down the best cat sitter out there. I almost didn't want to pay this review because I don't want everyone else booking her too much 😂. She is considerate, professional and respectful. I love the notes she leaves and the toys she brings for my cats. I will seriously book her every time. Thank you, Fozia!
What can I say… Kim did an incredible job with drop in visits this past week for our kitties Peanut and Milo. She is calm, patient, caring, and reliable. Extremely reliable!!! We were away on vacation when a huge snowstorm hit, and Kim made a plan to ensure she could care for Peanut and Milo. Milo also had some special medical needs, including diabetes, and she did great with administering his insulin and meds. Kim is an excellent communicator. She is patient and friendly. Kim honestly came through for us in a challenging situation with the weather, and we are so grateful for her! We would highly recommend her pet sitting services.
Great pet sitting service as always when Elana comes to babysit my Kelce Kitty. Great communication and promptly always on time. Very reliable. Love all the pictures that get sent. Kelce is always happy to see her. Would definitely recommend! Thank you again for taking care of Kelce over the christmas holiday. We both appreciate you very much. Amber & Kelce

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Oak Park on Rover is $33.3 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 4,607 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Oak Park. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Oak Park. On Rover:

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.
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.
