“We needed a last minute sitter to come visit our mini dachshunds while we were on vacation and Caroline was great! She made all our check in’s and included pictures every time. Thank you Caroline for looking over our pups while we were away !”
“Heather is amazing! I have an older dog, who isn't always very comfortable with strangers, but after just a couple visits I could really tell that she was starting to relax. Heather was super responsive and her updates were great! She was even able to add on an additional visit last minute because our plane was delayed. I'll definitely be booking with her again!”

About: We have fostered many pets. We have also provided pet sitting for friends, family, and former fosters. We can provide superb care to your pups. I work from home all day and am able to provide care and love to your pups when you can't. We can provide breaks as needed and daily exercise to keep your pups happy. We have a fenced yard and a second fenced yard that we can use as a dog run and two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company.
“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.”
“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: What sets me apart for other sitters is that I have them enjoy their walks at their own pace. In my years of experience, I have not only taken care of dogs but also cats just to name a few. Every animal is unique in their own way so being kind goes a long way. I like to have the owners as well as the dogs comfortable with me so I obtain as much information from the owners regarding their furry friends as I can. I am currently free to play, drop-in or bring your furry baby home with me. Whatever your pets needs are, I am here to help. I have a big backyard where I normally allow the dogs to run and play. But it does not have a fence in one area where the driveway begins. My home has two floors which the downstairs I use for the dogs to lay down, play or sleep. I do own a dog myself but she isn't allowed to interact with guests dogs unless previously approved by the guests parents first. I also have cameras, where I can capture video and photos to send to the pet parents.

About: Certified veterinary technician trying to care for your pets outside of the work environment. I work at an animal ER, so I am knowledgeable on when a pet needs something. I care highly of each and every pet that I see each day. I am capable of medication administration of any way. I work three days a week, so I am able to fully attend to your pets on the days that I am off. I normally care for my own dogs on my days off, so i’d be honored to help those who need the extra care! I’m always looking for a way to stay active, so taking your dogs for a walk or even playing with a cat toy to entertain you pet is a way to entertain me. I will always be prepared with poop bags, treats, etc.
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 have had a pet since the age of 6. I have experience with cats, dogs, fish, guinea pigs, rabbits, axolotols, young, old, animals needing medicaiton and everything in between I work at a school so I get off work mid afternoon. I am especially available on weekends and when schools are on break. During the school year, I can come to your home before school and anytime after school gets out. I am happy to help care for your pet however you want. You know your pet and what works for them. My job is to help while you are away and keep them safe with as little anxiety as possible.
“Great with our chocolate lab, willing to work with us and honor our requests. Came on short notice when we needed an extra night. Responded quickly and gave updates with every visit.”
“Laniece, was great with my pair of pitties! She picked up after them and I'm so appreciative of that. She gave them lots of love and attention. Took great pics so that my mind was at ease. Thor & Star are looking forward to more visits.”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover and proud Velcro dog mom to two high-energy Goldendoodles, plus a 10-year-old rescue cat I took in after a box of kittens was left at the pet store where I worked. Caring for animals has always been second nature to me. Living with two anxious, very attached doodles has given me hands-on experience with dogs who need structure, reassurance, and enrichment to thrive. I’m comfortable adapting to any personality — from independent cats to sensitive or high-energy pups — and I’m especially skilled at helping anxious dogs feel safe through positive reinforcement, exercise, mental stimulation, and consistency. I’m gentle, highly attentive, and detail-oriented with routines, feeding, medications, and behavioral cues. I believe in building trust with every pet so they feel secure, engaged, and cared for while you’re away. You’ll always receive thoughtful updates and photos, so you can feel completely at ease.
About: I've always had animals growing up. I currently have a basset mix (Brady), a tuxedo cat (Felix), and a black cat (Ghost). I've had dogs ranging in size and different breeds. I have cared for puppies to senior dogs needing special care. Most of my pets have been rescued from all different backgrounds. I understand that some dogs need time to trust new people and I'm willing to work with them. I love to go on adventures to new places and love to have company. We enjoy walks and taking trips to pets stores for (an approved) treat! Can't wait to work with you! I am new to the area and haven't started work yet (I'm an occupational therapist) so my schedule during the week is pretty open and flexible. We have a 5 foot fence for our back yard that has plenty of space to run around and are in a quiet neighborhood with a park nearby.
About: I’ve taken care of many dogs, I’ve had 7 dogs in my life time. And love all types of dogs I have had One bichon, two Weimaraners, a pit mix. And now have a beagle mix 8 years old, a mastiff 6 years old, bully mix 1 year old, pit bull 5 months old. I’m currently looking for a little money on the side so I’m so excited to be able to walk and play with your furry friends/family. Live in a neighborhood with a lot of friendly dogs. And I also have a dog run that’s fenced in and 4 dogs of my own who love to play and make friends.
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.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Romeoville
Hayley was absolutely fantastic! I can’t say enough good things. She was thoughtful, accommodating and professional. She was also very prompt for her all her visits and sent so many great photos. You can tell Hayley loves animals and is a caring soul. I didn’t have to worry about my dog and cat at all because I knew they were being taken care of and loved on. Thank you for the peace of mind Hayley!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Romeoville is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 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.
As of November 2026, there are 9,490 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Romeoville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Romeoville. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
