“Venessa was taking care of our two Cat's during holidays and everything she did was fantastic. Her love towards taking personal care with them and making sure every visit she made had a time to play with them and nurture them during our absence.”
“Rachel was just great!! She followed all of our pet care requests with no issue and was very responsive! She sent pictures of our cats and gave a reassuring update that they are doing well!! We will totally book her again!”
“Bradlei was quick in her responses to my request and was willing to take my request on such short notice. She asked the right questions and even took notes during our meeting to ensure as little discomfort to kitty as possible while I was out. Her updates were timely and clear, and she took initiative to take care of an unexpected sickness/clean up that we had not discussed beforehand.”
About: I’ve taken care of senior dogs who had trouble seeing and walking, cleaned up after them, and handled puppies as young as 1 week old. I’ve worked with dogs ranging from Chihuahuas to Great Danes, so no pet is too small or too big for me. I work part time so my availability changes week to week depending on my shifts, but I always know my schedule in advance so I’ll be upfront with you about when I’m available before we book anything. Pet care is something I take seriously so I make sure I’m not overcommitting if I say I’m available, I mean it. On days I’m not working I’m pretty much free for most of the day. Morning and evening availability is usually the most consistent for me regardless of whether I have a shift. I’ll always communicate with you ahead of time if anything changes and I’m not the type to leave you hanging last minute. I care for my own cat Simba daily, keeping him engaged and comfortable, the same attention and energy I’ll bring to your pet. In your home I’ll handle feeding, playtime, cleaning up any messes, and anything else your pet needs.
“Margaret is the best the sitter I've come across on this app. So attentive and keeps me updated. Such a peace of mind to have someone like her watching my babies. 100% recommend.”
About: I have had dogs in my life since the beginning of time and can’t see myself without one. I love to play and go on walks with them. I have three dogs now and will care for your babies as they are my own. I am available for drop ins or dog walks early morning and evening hours Monday-Friday. Saturday and Sunday available early morning and evenings with some afternoon availability. I am happy to provide any service for comfort of your dog. Walking, playing, brushing, crating etc. I have a fenced in yard and fur babies that love friends
“Heather is wonderful, I’m truly grateful for her. This was my first time traveling away from my two cats, and I really appreciate all her help. She followed everything on the checklist I gave her and was very patient with my cats!!! Thank you!”
“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.”
“Christopher was AMAZING!! He was so thoughtful, caring and thorough with our pets! I felt so comfortable leaving my girls in his care! And his communication was top notch! Highly recommend him!”
About: I have 2 dogs of my own and always grew up with dogs. I absolutely adore all animals and know the importance of taking care of our fur babies! I would love to help you take care of yours:)) I am a teacher so I always have my summers off. I am very open to helping you while your work, need to run some errands, or simply just need a break:)) I always believe in spending quality time with your animals. We are all the know and just taking 5-10 minutes to show them attention can make all the difference!
“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.”
About: I’ve had dogs in my life since I was a baby, so caring for them comes naturally to me. I’ve always been the trusted friend or family member to pet sit, and I truly love animals. I’m patient, caring, and enjoy making every dog feel safe, happy, and loved. Whether we’re relaxing at home or enjoying a nature walk, I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own. currently work as an Amazon delivery driver four days a week and teach virtual English classes on weekend mornings. I have three days off each week and am available for dog walks on those days, as well as before or after work when possible. I love being outdoors and enjoy giving dogs fun, safe, and active walks. I have a large, fenced backyard where dogs can safely play and explore. I also have a friendly, well-socialized dog if your pup enjoys having company. Whether you’d prefer your dog stay at my home or be cared for in the comfort of yours, I’m happy to accommodate your preferences. I’m very flexible and committed to making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved.
“Caraline took excellent care of my two boys while I was out on a much longer day than they’re used to. They took to her right away at the meet-and-greet and she’s clearly a dog person. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Caraline again. Also, she’s a great communicator and her post-visit notes were very thorough. It was also a last-minute booking and she responded right away to my request and was able to accommodate us.”
About: I love animals and respect their personalities. I amaze people with how quickly their pets open up to me and fall in love with me. Your pet will be excited to see me and I will treat them with all the care they deserve I used to take care of my dog every day. We played a game with her every day, including hide-and-seek which I trained her to play. I used to have a cat for years but sadly my wife is allergic I am careful to respect a pet’s boundaries and don’t come on too strong. I pay close attention to the signals they give me and it helps me quickly get familiar with them and have them cuddling up to me in no time.
“Claire was great at communicating during our meet and greet and in our texts leading up to her visit. From her photos while she cat sit for my two cats, they were well fed and got plenty of play. Everything was in great order when I came home, and Claire is someone I will definitely try to use again.”
“The moment I met Amanda I could tell it was a great fit for our puppy as she was kind and calm mannered. We just got our puppy a week ago and she came to drop in on our girl 2 times a day. She always provides me with pictures and detailed reports of her visits with Noa. I highly recommend her and will definitely be working with Amanda again and look forward to her visits!”
About: I grew up with animals my whole life. I have a passion for pets of all sizes and species. I am excited to be able to help you by caring for your pets while you are away. Your babies will be cared for and loved just as if they were my own. I have also volunteered to watch my family's pets in the past. My kids and I really love caring for pets and spend time with them. I will be providing them food, play time and lots of love. I had dogs in the past, currently I have a cat, my family have dogs and I watch over them alot. Especially when they go on vacations. I just grew up loving pets so much.
“Carlen was great! She helped ease our minds by doing meet and greets prior to the booking and was very flexible when we needed to modify plans the day before. Happy our girls were in good hands with her!”
“This was my first time using this app and I am very happy that me and my wife chose Samantha! We have a diabetic cat, so one of the criterias that we were looking for was medicine injections, that's why we chose Samantha to come to drop-in visits two times a day- morning and evening. We couldn't be more right by choosing her! She went on and beyond, she was very patient with Lelouch, it took him around 4-5 days to warm up to her, but all this time Samantha was able to give his insulin shots anyways! She updated us every visit and responded to us quickly. We would definitely request Samantha to help us again with Lelouch in the future!”

Bradlei was so great! I'm very happy I chose her to watch my lil "special needs" cat Oliver! He needs his heart meds daily and she was able to make sure he took em! Bradlei kept in touch with me daily, sent the best pix of Oliver and kept his space tidy! I would definitely recommend and use Bradlei again in the future... Thank you so much again! 🧡😺
Kristen was wonderful! She went above and beyond the tasks we gave her. She stayed with our kitties and was so considerate when she noticed that a critter got into our garbage bags. She did not have to clean the mess up but she did anyway. Being a first-time Rover user, Kristen put our minds at ease when we were so stressed out this past weekend. We will definitely call her back again! Thank you so much Kristen ❤️

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 9,777 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Romeoville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Romeoville stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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.
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 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.

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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
