“Claire bonded well with my cats. She followed feeding instructions and other care suggestions. She is friendly and outgoing and communicates well during visit updates. I highly recommend her for needed pet care.”
About: I worked in an animal hospital for a couple of years. I have watched furbabies (cats and dogs) of family and friends for many years and even have office dogs at my job! I am mainly available during the weekends but can occasionally do evenings during the weekdays after my full time job. I work from home during Fridays so I am fully available then too. I would prefer to pet sit in an environment that your furbaby is already familiar with aka your home! I’d also be happy to take them (dogs) to a park or trail for them to explore as I love taking long walks.
“Erica is a loving and skilled caregiver for our aging cats. Two of the three need medicine (one mixed in his food, one applied inside his ear), and she takes on these routines along with their elaborate feeding needs (wet food! dry food! treats! all in 3 different places for the 3 cats!) with such care and confidence. She's even made extra stops when there have been storms to make sure all is well. Erica is our go-to. With her, we're always at ease that our kitties and our house are in the best hands when we're traveling. Our kitties are lucky to have her as their auntie!!”
About: I’ve grown up with all sorts of animals, I recently got a puppy and her training at home has been going great, I’ve taken care of many different breeds and ages, from puppies to senior dogs. I work for family part time and stay at home for the time being, I’m available for walks or potty breaks anytime during the week between 8am and 5pm When dealing with my own dogs potty breaks look like all of us going out at once, I don’t tend to leave dogs unsupervised unless told to do so, I love taking my dogs for walks and playing outside so good long walks are surely in store for your pups as well.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is I’ve taken care of pets from 0 years old to 16, multiple pets at a time, from cats to dogs to hamsters, and I love to do so more than anything. If you’re looking for someone to give your loved one some company, tire out an energetic puppy before you get home from work, or just plain old pet care, I’m your guy. I can take care of your pet part time, based on your needs! I can do frequent check ins and walks through out the day, stay for extended periods of time, or even house sit. My only off time is I currently work 11-7 on Saturdays and Sundays. I have a fenced, open yard with plenty of room for your pup to enjoy. I can also offer them enrichment with toys, treats, and another playful, well behaved pup who lives right upstairs.
About: I have many years of experiences caring for pets of all breeds and sizes. You can trust that your pet will be in loving hands with me. I’m currently taking a career break, so I have plenty of time to give your pet attentive care. I have an active lifestyle and love the gratification that comes with caring for animals. I’m currently living in a pet friendly apartment. While I don’t have a yard, I would love to take your dog for long walks around the neighborhood.
About: I fell in love with dogs ever since my grandma took me with her to get a husky. Bravo felt like mine and i’ve been helping her take care of him since I was 8 I am a college athlete and spend a lot of time training. I am pretty flexible with my schedule now and I believe this can be too! In a client’s home, I respect the pet’s routine and the owner’s instructions carefully. I will treat their home like it’s my own, keeping it tidy and clean. I will be communicative, giving updates and pictures. My goal is to make your fur baby feel relaxed and loved in whichever environment they are in.
“Savanna was great with our two cats for drop in visits, with even our shy cat loving her by the end of the week! She was reliable and excellent with communication. We will pick Savanna next time we need a cat sitter. Highly recommend!”
“Kelera is so awesome!!! So friendly, professional, and helpful. Not only did she take care of the basics for our kitties while we were gone but she went above and beyond to help them get comfortable around her and communicate how they were doing. Excellent service, communication, and care! Thank you again Kelera, we will be in touch again soon 🙂”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for the majority of my life. I enjoy spending time with any animal, but I’m mainly a cat person. I’d love to care for your feline friends! Afternoons and evenings work best for me at this time, but I have a flexible schedule and I can work around your pet care needs. I am available to care for your animals at your home. I can give as much time and attention as needed, and I am committed to their happiness and comfort.
“Highly communicative and willing to drop by for a meet & greet with our dogs before the sitting date. She’s great to work with and we look forward to having her dog sit again.”
“Debbie was fantastic. Looks like our miniature golden doodle “Princess” adopted Debbie. The picture of Princess laying on the couch with Debbie by her says it all. I highly recommend her and will ask for her again.”
“Emalee did everything as instructed. I only wish she mentioned the smell of uneaten food rotting in the kitchen trash can, so it could have been properly disposed of outside.”
About: I grew up with cats and Golden Retrievers and now have 4 Boston Terriers and 2 new kittens, who are my whole world! I am also an approved dog-walker / caregiver for Chicago Animal Care and Control, trained in their strict techniques, so I am comfortable caring for, walking, and exhausting small to large dogs. Currently working part time, so have lots of time to dedicate to your pups! I am mostly available for walks during weekdays: Mon - Fri, 9a - 5p Happy to care for your pup where they are most comfortable, in your home! Even if you have a fully fenced yard, you can trust that I'll never leave them unsupervised and unleashed, outside. If you do not have a fenced yard, we will have lots of fun getting our steps in, around the neighborhood! Comfortable getting your pup in and out of crates/kennels if needed, and getting them harnessed up for walks. Will *always* pick up any and all poop your pup leaves, whether in your yard or on our walks.
“Acoya watched our 4 cats while we were away for a couple of weeks. She was wonderful, providing daily updates & pictures so that we could have peace of mind that our cats were comfortable and safe during our time away. We will be requesting her services again and I'd definitely recommend her!”
About: Doesn't have lot experience with dog's and I want to be honest but I know how to love them I've been taking their cats for many years By what I’m saying, I don’t believe that you would want me to do your dog and I can understand if you show me have the patient if you have the patient with me and thank you I’m disabled.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Richton Park
Brandon was absolutely fantastic! He took wonderful care of our pets and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. He was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about our animals as if they were his own. We loved receiving updates and knowing everything was going smoothly. Coming home to happy, well-cared-for pets made all the difference. It’s not easy trusting someone with your furry family members, but Brandon exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend Brandon to anyone looking for a dependable, caring, and professional pet sitter. We will definitely be using his services again in the future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Richton Park is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $30 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
