“Patrick was wonderful! He kept me up to date with Dunkin and Dunkin enjoyed having him pop in and check on him. I would highly recommend Patrick and can’t wait to book him again.”

“Lisa is the best! I can't say enough good things about her. She is responsive, comes at the last minute, takes great pics, super friendly & loves my dogs & cats! Thank you, Lisa!”
“Emily did an awesome job doing drop-in visits with Sierra. She is great with communication, came for a meet n greet first and followed instructions for the visits. Sierra absolutely loved having her come over to play fetch in the yard, she got belly rubs, fed her treats and made sure she had fresh water before she left. I would absolutely have Emily again…she did a great job all around!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, and taking care of them is second nature. I see Rover as a way to interact & keep them in my life while not having one of my own at home. I already routinely take 1 to 2 walks during my day, so the addition dog walking or sitting fits rights into my daily schedule now. In your home, I am clean, orderly, and can clearly follow all instructions given. You will find your fur baby and your home better off than you left them before
About: My family has had dogs since I was young. I also pet sit for friends and family while they are away on trips. I will care for your pets as if they are my own! I am a teacher so I am off during the summers. I do tutor but am happy to work with you to see what times will work best for us and your pets :) I am more than happy to play with your pets inside (and outside if able) your home, crate if necessary and take walks as needed.
About: Hi! My name is Megan! I have taken care of dogs and puppies ever since sixth grade. I have also grown up with medium size and large dogs my whole life. Throughout middle school, highschool, and college I have gained experience by volunteering at animal shelters. I have gotten to take care of dogs and cats with many different temperaments, some shy, some aggressive, but all equally deserving of love and patience. I also have practice walking strong pulling dogs and have worked at Camp Bow Wow for two years. This included breaking up dog fights, working with many different breeds, bathing and grooming the dogs, prepping meals, and multitasking. Petcare fits into my weekly routine because I am back from college and home for the summer! I have been looking for a job that is flexible after I returned home from a month in Spain, and I love dogs and cats. I always ensure the safety of pets. I make sure I hold dogs’ leashes properly on walks and that sibling pets do not get too out of hand when it comes to playing. Furthermore, certain rooms will remain off limits, and I will ensure all doors will remain closed if requested. I will feed dogs or cats at the proper time and give them plenty of snuggles if they are comfortable with me :)
About: As a veterinary student, I bring a calm, knowledgeable, and detail oriented approach to every pet I care for. My background gives me a strong foundation in animal behavior, so I’m comfortable reading body language, recognizing stress signals, and creating a low stress, positive environment for pets of all personalities. I also have hands‑on experience with senior pet care, including medication administration, mobility support, and adapting routines to keep older pets comfortable and happy. I’m patient, gentle, and attentive to the small details that help pets feel safe and understood. I’m currently on summer break, which means my schedule is wide open and very flexible. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine, and I’m able to plan my day around your pet’s needs rather than the other way around. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits, and I make sure each visit is calm, unhurried, and focused entirely on your pet. Because I’m not in classes right now, I can offer consistent routines, extra attention, and plenty of time for enrichment, walks, or quiet companionship. Your pet gets reliable care, and you get peace of mind knowing they’re with someone who’s fully present and attentive. My background has trained me to read animal behavior and stress signals, so I always approach pets gently and at their comfort level. I follow your care instructions closely; feeding routines, medications, enrichment, litter box care, and any house rules you have. I double check doors, gates, and latches every visit to keep your pet secure. I also keep your home tidy, respect your space, and make sure everything is exactly as you left it. During visits, I prioritize low stress handling, clean water, safe play, and a calm environment. I pay attention to changes in appetite, behavior, or energy so I can update you right away. You’ll always get clear communication and detailed updates, because trust and transparency matter.
About: We’re lifelong dog lovers who truly understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. Having grown up around dogs and now caring for one of our own, we’re very familiar with daily routines, different temperaments, and the little things that keep dogs happy and comfortable. Many of our close family members are also dog owners, so caring for dogs has always been a big part of our lives. What sets us apart is our calm, attentive approach and hands-on experience. We’re comfortable administering medications, including giving pills, and we’re happy to follow any specific care instructions your dog needs. Whether it’s sticking to a routine, helping a nervous dog feel at ease, or providing extra patience for puppies or senior dogs, we’re committed to making sure every dog feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m a teacher, so I’m home full-time during the summer, and my wife works from home most days. This gives us a very flexible schedule, allowing us to adapt easily to each dog’s routine and specific needs. We care for every pet as if they were our own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well-loved whether they’re in our home or theirs. We stick closely to each dog’s usual routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. While we don’t have a fenced-in yard, we make sure dogs still get plenty of exercise and outdoor time by taking them out on a leash and going on regular walks. We’re attentive and hands-on during outdoor time to ensure their safety at all times.
About: I've lived with dogs of various shapes and sizes my entire life! I understand the importance of timely bathroom breaks. My Beagle/Spaniel Luke does not tolerate late meals and neither do I! I mostly work remote so I'm often available throughout the day. Luke and I take multiple walks a day and I can fit multiple visits in a day! I have a fully fenced yard and reliable transport! Luke is very friendly with other dogs, but we know to give everyone their space and time. Never met an animal I didn't like!
About: I am a life long dog lover, who will care for your loved ones as if they were my own. I have a way with dogs to make them feel at ease and happy. Currently my schedule is wide open. Feel free to reach out to me so we can setup a meet and greet! I am looking forward to getting to know you! My initial meeting will be to earn the trust of you and your dog. Nothing is more important. I want to let you know that your dogs safety and your comfort is my highest priority!

About: I am a teacher off for the summer and am available to help other families with their pet care needs. My two best friends are rescue pups that bring me great joy. I also volunteer to help with cat care at our local animal shelter. I know how hard it is to leave your pets, so you can rest assured I will take the utmost care when in charge of your beloved pets. I will treat them as my own! I have experience with a variety of household pets including dogs, cats, reptiles, Guinea pigs, hamsters, and birds. Animals are truly special creatures that deserve our utmost respect and care and it is my privilege to take care of yours. I am a teacher off for the summer and my schedule is very flexible to help you with your animals. Early morning, afternoon, or at night, I’m available! I do not do care out of my home. I can come to you but cannot do overnights. I will take detailed notes on your instructions and follow through on each step. I want your animals to feel as comfortable as possible while you are gone. For dog walking, I am very experienced at handling even the most energetic dog!
“Marissa was great! She arrived on time to meet my little pups before I went out of town, and also arrived on time the day I scheduled for her to come let them out. She played with them, took them for a walk, fed them, and changed out a potty pad.”

About: I’ve dog sat dogs for week long periods and love to do it. I have a dog of my own and am great with all animals. I’m very active and enjoy taking care of pets. I work part-time but my job is super flexible when I’m given a two week notice. I have a fairly busy daily schedule but never occupied for more than 6 hours at a time. Super easy going with whatever rules or specific needs a dog has whether it be walking or sitting. I’ve worked with many different situations and am comfortable with basically everything.
About: I’ve had multiple animals in the home since I was 5, I also work at a pet hotel with both cats and dogs. I work with big dogs, small dogs, shy dogs, dogs who need medical help, I love helping animals and same goes for cats and other species! I work thursdays-sundays at the pet hotel usually and I do have university in the fall. Other than that I am completely free and willing to drive out I will be sure to spend time with them, feed them, clean their litter box/walk them, and just overall love them as much as you do!

About: I grew up on a farm and we've always had 3 dogs and 2 cats along with a plethora of other animals. I know how to ensure safety and have a clear head when things go awry. I absolutely adore dogs and cats of all ages and can competently take care of any range of behaviors. I'm a ballerina and a personal trainer. But I will absolutely check in, walk or play with your pet any chance that I get! Normally it would be in the morning or near the evening. My schedule is more open on the weekends. I am a very precautious person when it comes to the safety of your pets. I always double check instructions and make sure the door or cage is secure before I leave. I also will give them all the love and attention they could want.
About: Hi! I'm a lifelong dog lover with over 10 years of professional experience working with dogs in veterinary clinics, doggie daycares, and grooming salons. Dogs have always been one of my greatest passions. I truly enjoy getting to know each dog's unique personality, whether they're a goofy puppy, an energetic adventure buddy, a shy rescue, or a senior who prefers a slower pace. One of my favorite parts of this work is building trust with dogs and watching them become excited to see me. As a pet parent myself, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your dog. My goal is to provide the same level of care, patience, and attention that I would want for my own pets. Whether your dog enjoys a structured walk, extra sniffing time, playtime, or simply companionship during the day, I'll tailor my care to their individual needs. When your dog is with me, they're not just another appointment on my schedule—they're a member of the family. My most recent job with dogs was at a daycare for several years. I supervised dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. This experience gave me extensive knowledge of canine body language, play styles, and behavior. I learned how to safely manage group interactions, recognize early signs of tension, and help dogs remain comfortable and successful in social environments. In my free time, you'll usually find me out walking with my own dogs, taking my kids to their activities, discovering new music, or learning about native plants and wildlife! My current schedule includes dog walking, volunteering at an animal shelter, and taking care of my two wonderful sons. Thursdays are a busy day with activities with them so those days are currently closed for my schedule. Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Saturdays, and some Fridays are available to book. I am comfortable with whatever instructions you give me and what your preferences are whether it be letting them out in your yard, sitting down and hanging out with them, letting them sniff around, or taking them for a more structured walk.
“Brooke was able to bump up our appointment time last minute. She was a life savor when I noticed our pup had started tearing her bed apart on our petcam and got over there asap! She is great with our pup and is very reliable and trustworthy — great sitter!”

“Megan was absolutely wonderful!! She took great care of our dog while we were getting married! Our dog does not take to just anyone - but he took to her instantly! She’s reliable and passionate about dogs!! Frankie loves her!! 🤷🏼”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Orland Hills
I cannot recommend Michelle and Paul enough! I am a nurse and work long hours during the day. As us dog parents know, we love our babies and want the best care for them at all times. I was a little hesitant, as my Benny is a vocal little guy and thought he would turn Paul off. Michelle and I had a great conversation leading up to Paul’s playtime visits and she made me feel assured that Paul has “dog whisperer” qualities. It was fantastic seeing pictures from the visits and knowing that Benny was let outside and played with. Thank you, Michelle and Paul. Your care for Benny made me a huge fan of your services!

Marissa was amazing! I was nervous because this was our first time using Rover but as soon as I met Marissa I knew I had nothing to worry about and our fur babies would be well cared for. We had 4 drop in visits on one day and an early morning visit the next and Marissa always sent pictures and kept us updated. Our rottweiler plopped down in her lap the first time he met her and that says a lot! We will definitely use her again.

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 Orland Hills 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.
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.

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.
To find sitters in Orland Hills with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
