“Vanessa was wonderful. Timely, responsive, and dependable. Loved our little report cards and seeing that our pet was being loved on! Highly recommend her and will be using again!”
“Heather was a great pet sitter. She left detailed notes (and pictures) that showed she really understood each of our dogs and their personalities. She made us feel comfortable that our dogs were well cared for during our trip.”
“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.”
About: I’ve had two dogs and currently have one cat. All of my pets are seniors and incredibly well loved. My best friends in the entire world! I’m currently unemployed as I am waiting for government clearance to start my job as a research assistant! I’m located in the Chicago suburbs so I’m able to provide care to suburbs and Chicago! I’ll provide full attention to your pet and treat them as my own! I love spending time with pets in any setting such as outside or indoors. Pets are a member of a family and should be treated as such!
“Christopher was wonderful and reliable with our kitty. Our cat takes awhile to warm up to others and his patience was rewarded with her trust. It was great to know she was in good hands while we were away.”
“She is always prompt, respectful, & good with Sassy. I very much appreciate her everytime she comes. She also has always been available when I need a booking — evening on sometimes short notice — definitely love having her to depend on in a pinch.”
“I’m very particular about who takes care of my girls. Bradlei was so sweet to them and left them a little gift bag for their first visit! Will definitely have her again!”

“Samantha did a great job of taking care of our almost 11 year old Zeus! We had some drop in visits and Samantha sent us notes and photos of her time with Zeus. We were very happy and highly recommend.”
“Erin is always so wonderful with our greyhound Happy. She is kind and professional. I appreciate that she responds quickly and is often willing to help with short notice. Happy loves having Erin visit and take her for walk, feed her, and give her love and attention. I can confidently recommend Erin.”
“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!”

About: I’ve been caring for animals my whole life and have pet sat for my uncle’s dogs, cats, and ferrets since I was young. I have experience with small and medium-sized dogs, including senior dogs, as my own dog is 14 years old. I understand the patience and extra care older pets need. I’m a huge animal lover, have attended pet expos for years, and even cared for a bearded dragon. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’m currently a nursing student looking to earn some extra income while in school by doing something I truly enjoy—caring for animals. My current job only schedules me occasionally, so I have a very flexible schedule and am available most days of the week, including weekdays and many weekends. I’m happy to work around your schedule to provide reliable, loving care for your pets. Whether your dog needs a walk, playtime, or just some extra attention while you’re away, I’m committed to making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for every visit. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. I treat every animal like they are my own by making sure they feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for. I walk my own dog almost daily, and on days when walks aren’t possible, I give her extra playtime and attention while respecting her limits as a senior pup! I always make sure she has fresh water, especially on hot days, and that she gets the care and companionship she needs. For drop-ins and walks, I will provide a safe environment, plenty of attention, and updates so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.
“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.”
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!
“Stephanie was wonderful! She sent photos of Cricket’s food and water bowls each visit and kept her litter box clean. Although Cricket hid the entire time, I felt extremely comfortable trusting Stephanie with her. I will definitely book with Stephanie again :)”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Romeoville
Bradlei was very accommodating to my schedule in order to care for my cat, giving important updates and being flexible on special requests while also promptly responding to any questions I had. She knew what questions to ask to ensure kitty was comfortable, as well and was very attentive to him.
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 ❤️

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Romeoville on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
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 September 2026, there are 9,670 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Romeoville. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 95% 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 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.
