“Heather was so great with my cats. One of them is pretty shy and he even came out for her for some pets! Heather was really communicative and responsive. I would definitely use her services again.”
About: I’ve always had dogs and have hands-on experience caring for them, along with knowledge of canine training and enrichment. I enjoy keeping dogs active and engaged through walks, play, basic training, tricks, and structured activities. I’m attentive to each dog’s personality, routine, and individual needs. I’ll follow your instructions carefully and keep you updated with photos and messages so you know how your dog is doing while you’re away. I’m available for overnight boarding on weekends, and I’m also available for dog walks on weekdays after 4:00 PM. I’m happy to work with your dog’s routine and will do my best to accommodate your schedule whenever possible! I have a fully fenced yard with plenty of space for dogs to safely play, explore, and get some energy out. Your pup will also have the option to socialize and play with my two friendly dogs, or enjoy their own space if they prefer a quieter environment. My home has several areas where dogs can relax comfortably and have some privacy, and I also have a crate available for dogs who are crate-trained or feel more comfortable having their own cozy space. I want every dog in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and at home. I’m attentive to each dog’s individual personality, routine, and needs, and I’ll make sure they receive plenty of love, playtime, and attention while they’re with me!
“During the meet and greet, Blue took an instant liking to Kisha which was great to see. Kisha sent us pictures for every visit and we felt very confident that Blue was in good hands. This was our first time using a service like this and Kisha made the experience a positive one and we look forward to using Kisha in the future.”
“Charlotte was a wonderful sitter and made me feel so comfortable throughout my trip away from my babies (w cats)! Will be booking again the next time I’m away.”

I’m currently a college student and my schedule is flexible throughout the week and weekend. I love being outside and around animals, I’m even going to school to do that for the rest of my life! While in a clients home, I respect any boundaries or household rules that are set. If in-home pet care is required while the home is unoccupied, it is my top-priority to ensure the safety of your fur baby and your home.

About: I have always grown up with dogs and have always been an animal lover since a little kid!! My experience ranges from 2+ years working as a veterinary assistant, to working at a dog daycare for a little over 2 years, and volunteering at an animal shelter for 4 years! I am comfortable with any dog size and breed as well as cats! All pets are welcome! I currently have two dogs which you can see in my photos, they are my babies and they have brought me so much joy into my life! I hope to bring joy into your dogs life when their paw-rents arent home! I am currently working full time but I do commute to the city twice a week and then WFH the rest of the days so I can be flexible with my schedule. When i'm not at work i'm going on nature walks or playing with my dogs or working out at the gym! I am always aware of any surroundings when taking your pet out on walks and I will always make sure they get a lot of love and attention while their paw-rents are away! I would just like to be informed if your pet is reactive to other animals/people and if there are any other concerns I should be well aware of! Also if they need to use any special collar or e-collar while being out. I am also comfortable with giving your pet medications if they are on any, whether it be oral meds or ointment or eye drops as long as they are cooperative!

About: I love animals, I’m VERY passionate with their care and living standards. Animals comfortably are important to me. I treat all with love and respect.

“Ann was absolutely perfect. She was extremely understanding and flexible in scheduling our initial meet and key exchange and followed all instructions perfectly. Her updates and pictures also put my mind at ease while I was away. I will definitely book Ann again and recommend her to my friends.”
About: Hi, I have loved and adored animals ever since I was a little girl. If your pet needs to be fed, pet, played with, medication, or anything else I gotchya! I am currently working part time and a full time student. I can be available during the week Mondays, occasional Wednesdays, Fridays, and occasional weekends. I have two adorable kitties at home and make sure they are loved, fed, played with, and given lots of treats. Sometimes when they need medicine they will receive it accordingly.
About: I am a huge animal lover and dog lover. I have a 3 year old mini dachshund and I love meeting and spending time with new animal friends. I also previously had a rescue dog for 10 years (RIP Lyla 💔) that had severe anxiety, so I am comfortable interacting with dogs who may be shy or unsure of strangers. I have a velcro dog, so I am used to cuddling and keeping a close eye on fur babies. I am comfortable giving medications if needed and I will give all the hugs and kisses and playtime if that is what they want! I have more experience with dogs, but am happy to visit with kitties and other small animals as well. Due to my other job I am usually only available on weekends. I may have a weekday available here and there, just keep an eye on my calendar for last minute availability! I do have my own dog at home so I can't do overnight stays or house sitting. Ladybug typically gets along with small male dogs but can be iffy with large/female dogs, so if you'd like to board a meet 'n greet will be required. I prefer to walk dogs with a harness, as they are more secure and safer for everyone. I also keep a close eye and make sure they don't get into anything they're not supposed to. I practice crate training with my own dog, so if your pup needs to go back into a crate after a visit I can definitely handle that.
“Erin was absolutely amazing. She was punctual and took the time to write daily updates on how he did with each visit that also included a pic, I looked forward to each one. She took amazing care of my Moose. I highly recommend Erin, she is truly the best.”
“I know Millie is in good hands when Jessica comes over. Jessica will always leave me a note and pictures of Millie which I am grateful for. She is reliable and prompt and takes great care of our fur baby.”

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Romeoville is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $28 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.

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.
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.
