“Ray is an excellent guy. He's always available and I trust him 100% with my dog. I went on a trip to Panama City for 4 days and he took care of my pup. He asked all the right questions. Took notes and took my dog to some great places and sent me pics all the time. Don't hesitate to book Ray if you have the opportunity!!!”
“Coleen went above and beyond taking care of my cat while I was away. She was incredibly attentive, patient, and thoughtful. Her updates were detailed and reassuring. I’m so grateful for her help and would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Kelly did a fantastic job watching my two six month old kittens. She went above and beyond and cleaned the litter box each day without being asked. My kitties were very happen when I got home, and I know they loved Kelly. She sent lots of photos of them while I was away which put my mind at ease. I would highly recommend using Kelly as your sitter! I will be booking her again in the future! Thanks Kelly!”
“Samantha did a wonderful job dropping in to check on my dog when my usual help was not available. My dog was a little wary at fist but Samantha was great and made her feel comfortable. If I need services in the future for my dog, I will definitely reach out to see if she's available.”

“Best sitter ever! Helped our anxious dogs through a week of our absence and allowed my family and I to enjoy a vacation and family wedding with ease! Thank you SO much, Yazmin!”
About: I've loved animals since I was a little girl, and caring for pets has always brought me so much joy. I've been pet-sitting since I was 12, caring for dogs, cats, and even bunnies, which has given me years of hands-on experience. I’ve been through many different types of situations with pets like walking, feeding, playing, and even washing and drying pets. Ive always had no trouble connecting with animals and I'll care for your pet with the same love and attention I'd give my own. I'm committed to providing safe, reliable, and attentive care every time. I currently work full time from 9-5, so I'm available to care for your pets in the evenings and on weekends. However, I'm happy to accommodate your schedule whenever needed. My office is pet friendly, so with permission I could bring your pet to work for full time supervision. However if you prefer your pet to stay at home, I’m happy to make that work as well. Spending my free time with animals is something I truly enjoy, so your pets will always receive plenty of love, attention, and care. I live in a house with a large, fenced backyard that animals love to explore. I also live with my pet-loving parents, who enjoy having furry visitors around. Your pet will always have a safe, fun, and loving environment while in my care. When caring for pets in your home, I will treat your space with the utmost respect. I'll always be mindful of your home, follow your routines, and leave everything just as I found it, so you can feel confident and worry-free while you're away.
“Patricia was so great! Helped take care of our little zoo of ferrets, chickens, lizard, fish and a cat. Our ferret needed daily medicine which was super important and Patricia was so reliable we didn’t have to worry! She was thorough and communicated well, plus shared cute pics of our critters too… would highly recommend!!”
“Nicholas did a great job looking after my cat. She was always very shy and he would make sure to find where she was which would sometimes take a bit longer as she found new hiding spots. He completed all tasks that I asked of him. He was always on time and very professional.”
“Heather is always an absolute delight to have watch our two dogs. They are so excited to see her, even though they are picky with their people! She spends extra time and gives them so much love.”
About: I worked at a dog daycare/boarding place at the Wag Hotels Schiller Park location for 2 1/2 years: feeding, cleaning their rooms, giving medications and more! I have great experience with both cats and all types of dogs and have always enjoyed my time spent with the animals! :) I also have my own animals at home that I take care of— both a dog and a cat. I am taking classes during the week and my schedule will be more packed during the weekdays, so weekends would be the best for me to work with! Unfortunately I cannot house pets during the day or overnight as I am in school, but I am available for drop in visits, dog-walking, and possibly future pet sitting opportunities!
“Jackie took awesome care of my fur baby. Always on time, followed special feeding instructions & sent plenty of pictures of drop by visits. Would definitely rebook when I need to head out of town.”
“Kymberly is the absolute best!! I know this because I saw how Asta responded to being loved by Kymberly! I really appreciate the attention she paid to my fur baby and I will definitely request her again!”
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats for friends and family since age 8, having been trusted to feed, wash, and play with dogs- I know my way around a dog park or two. ;) I also have house sat for dog owners before as well, so I am always observant and able to make sure your pup feels right at home, and your home stays looking best in show! I currently have open availability, with tons of time to play with and entertain your pups! I am able to house sit as well, if given a minimum of 3 days in advance! While I cannot board fur babies at my house, I am more than able to monitor and play with your furry friends at your home (and on walks of course!), as well as follow any certain rules or procedures one may have for their best furry friend!

2nd review coming in. This was my original booking with Chris, the second one was an emergency extension. But as I have said in the other one, Chris is a fantastic pet sitter who truly knows and loves animals. My furr baby was very well taken care off like we've never left and I will definitely come back to Chris at any point i need a pet sitter! Top marks!
Chris was wonderful! I can’t say enough good things. My cats are very shy and he had them literally eating out of his hands on day one. He kept me informed with photos and texts and was so gentle and kind. I felt completely safe and full of trust that he had them comfortable during the heatwave that hit this week. He even did some random house tasks. He is incredible. Book him. Pay him. Tip him. It’s more than worth it.
My cat received caring and helpful attention from Kara, the cat sitter. Especially when, as she is so friendly, kitty Francine did let her approach! It's the first time ever in this former hoarding victim's life, a stranger was allowed to see, and photograph, Francine! Thank you so much Kara!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 5,906 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across O'Hare. 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 O'Hare. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
