“Skyler was awesome! She communicated well and responded quickly. Augie loved playing and spending time with her. We would definitely recommend Skyler and use her again. Thank you!!”
About: I have been taking care of dogs ranging from a few lbs to 100+ lbs for years! I have also been caring for different types of cats just as long :) Growing up we always had a dog in the house, so that has made me super comfortable to be around them. Whether I’m walking, feeding, cleaning, or administering medication, I am definitely not afraid of the job! I am a proud mama of 2 cats named Archie and Simon. They are my absolute world! I will make sure to give your pets the same care, caution, attention, and love I give my boys! Pet care has always been a passion of mine. In fact, I went to school for it! Although I did not end up pursuing my desire to become a veterinarian, I still try to incorporate that love for animals in my day to day life! I have an extremely flexible work schedule that allows me to almost work fully remote. I would be able to stop over at the house pretty much whenever you need me to. My work set up also allows me to work anywhere if needed. My weekends are almost always open as well! I will always make sure to talk through your expectations to ensure you are comfortable with the nature of each type of visit. I typically would not host any pets in our home. We have a fenced in backyard and several spaces; however, I would not want to put your pet or my cats in an uncomfortable space. At a clients home, I am more than comfortable with backyard access, crate training, cleaning litter boxes, accessing food/water, and any other requirements for the visit! (Totally fine bringing in mail/watering plants!) I will only access the spaces you need me to. I am also fine spending the night if needed. That would be something we could discuss case by case!
“Phil was absolutely wonderful to my two girls while I was away over Thanksgiving! His daily updates were fun, informative and helped keep my mind at peace the entire week. So, so thankful for the care he provided! Phil made sure both dogs were well taken care of and followed their routines. He also took excellent care of our home - it was great coming back to a tidy house! Would HIGHLY recommend Phil for anyone looking for a sitter.”
“I can't recommend Jed highly enough! He truly saved the day by accepting my booking at the very last minute. He was incredibly accommodating, friendly, and professional. Most importantly, Mazi adored him. I will definitely be booking with him again!”
About: I’ve been I interested in pet care for some time. I’m a senior caregiver for 2 years. I reason why I wanted to start pet care is because I love animals! Other than that I am a reliable and supportive caregiver. I enjoy helping others and take pride in my work. I’m available Wednesday , Saturday, and Sunday. I’m really looking forward to helping out! Im Brianna! Im a college student! I’m available any day of the week and anytime. If needed i can do overnights as well. I’m also okay with any change in the schedule. I take them out for walks and potty breaks. Feed them and staying active I can help with medication. I can tidy and clean up any accidents.
“This is the second time we have used Sandra. She spent the whole day with Milo and Ollie and had a great day. She sent me a picture of them sunning on our deck. They love her! We will be seeing her again next week.”
About: I have taken care of various animals since I was 16, ranging from chickens, roosters and parakeets, to hamsters, guinea pigs, cats and dogs. I have helped birth and take care of newborn puppies. I have open availability for either in-home care or boarding during the week and on Saturdays. I am available morning, day and night for either full care and company, or just a daily walk. I will take care of your pet or pets as if they were at home, whether they're actually at home, or in my own home. I'm bilingual, para los dueños y mascotas que necesiten la confianza de ser escuchados en su idioma, yo cuidare de ellos.
“Amanda is outstanding! This was my first time using Rover and I had Amanda house sit my dogs for a week. She responded immediately to every message, she was very respectful of my home and my dogs loved her. I will be asking her to house sit again in the near future!”
About: I am very easy going I love cuddling walking and playing with the animals I am constantly petting and grooming and love giving them treats when deserved Its company, its takes away stress, fun, and loving. It's like having another family member in our household. The animal is like a human and is very enjoyable. I am a very honest, friendly, person. It takes a lot for me to get upset. I would take care of the animal like it was my own child.
“Becca was great! She took very good care of our dog and cat while we were away on vacation. She sent us photos and kept us updated about our fur babies! She even kept the house clean! I highly recommend Becca, and we will definitely have her take care of our dog and cat again!”
About: I am a lifelong animal lover. I had dogs as a child and cats as an adult. I will give your pet lots of love and attention. I truly believe that pets are our best friends! They give us unconditional love and great joy! I have worked for a professional dog walking/pet sitting company since 2016 and love it. I am on Rover to offer my services to clients in my neighborhood. I'm currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to keep your fur baby happy. I am available 7 days a week for overnights, dog walks, and in-house visits. When I take care of your pet in your home, I will always make sure that your pet is happy, safe, and comfortable. On overnight visits with dogs, I like to have the dog sleep with me if allowed.
“Sabrina is spectacular. She cared for Cooper, loved him, and was patient with him. We were so pleased and left with such ease knowing Cooper was being taken care of. Thanks Sabrina!”
About: I work for a pet sitting company on the side, and in my own life, I own two cats, both rescued. I've taken care of bunnies, dogs, guinea pigs, geckos, fish, you name it! I really enjoy it, a lot! :) I am grateful if an owner is flexible as I am working a full time job in the loop. I am available most weekends and evenings and would be able to pop in during any of those times to check on your pet. I love pets of all kind, feel the experience between them and myself is a completely symbiotic one, and I think they are extremely rewarding. I cannot stress enough that if you're requesting drop in visits, there should be a couple bookings per day. Walking a dog one every 24 hours isn't an option. If that is the case, please have a neighbor or family member available for a second visit. If you intend to book for recurring visits, there will have to be a payment on file and will need to be rebooked each week (there have been issues in the past in which I wasn't paid). I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. I'm unable to offer in home petcare, due to having two cats myself. In others' homes, I am prompt, patient, and calm as I know it can be stressful when an owner is away. If you are out of town, there should be two drop ins for dogs per day, minimum, unless someone else will be checking in, on the dog(s)
About: I've taken care of animals since I was a kid, owned dogs as big as Saint Bernards, 4 cats, and currently a Pitbull. I've put my dog through beginner, intermediate, and advanced obedience training, so I can put that training to work with your animal as well. :) I work as a teacher during the day, so I can visit your pets anytime after 3pm and anytime, morning or night on the weekends. Since I have grown up around animals, I know how to respect their boundaries and let them 'accept' me before I give them pets. I know their body language well enough to know when they're happy, upset, or don't like a certain thing in their environment. I know that animals need stimulation, so I like taking them for walks and giving them proper attention and playtime :)
About: I love animals since I was a little kid. My uncle had a dog that I loved visiting, and my parents would bring me to the zoo to learn about animals. Ever since then, I started taking care of all sorts of pets from dogs, cats, reptiles, fish and small creatures. I work 5 days a week but can still come by early morning and after work to check up on your pets! If its onboarding, please make sure they are ok being left at home with other dogs for a few hours. I have a fenced yard that we let the dogs go out to play. I also have an area for cats if they need somewhere to have peace and quiet away from the dogs.
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities for many years, including family pets and neighbors’ pups. I’m gentle, patient, and attentive, and I always treat every dog like my own. Whether your pup needs playtime, cuddles, or a calm companion, I’m here to give them all the love they deserve. My schedule is very flexible, so I can easily fit pet care into my day. I spend most of my time at home, which means your pup won’t be left alone for long. I’m available for boarding, walks, and drop-ins throughout the week and weekends, and I always make sure each dog gets quality time and attention. Your dog’s safety is my top priority. I provide a calm, clean, and loving environment where pups can relax and feel at home. I follow all owner instructions carefully, from feeding routines to special needs. I’m gentle and calm, and I always supervise outdoor time closely to ensure every dog stays safe, happy, and comfortable.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Roselle
Oliwia is amazing. She is so happy and cheerful and took great care of our Bentley while we were away for 10 days. I felt stressed about leaving our dog for that long, but Oliwia sent pictures every day and kept us posted on how he was doing. All of the pictures and communication from her really helped ease my worries. I think he had a vacation too! I would also note that Oliwia left the house very clean, which is a wonderful gift when you come home from vacation. I would highly recommend her.
Ashley is fantastic. We have asked her several times to watch our 3 cats over the years and she is always on it. the cat areas are always clean, she send photos, grabbed a package for us and even rescued a baby bunny that fell down into a window well! As long as she is up for it we will be contacting her again :)
Marina was so great with my dogs! I have 4 medium to XL dogs that are well mannered but can be a handful. She handled all of their personalities and sent detailed updates and photos throughout the visit. We will definitely reach out to her again for our next trip! We are so relieved to find a sitter!
We had the absolute best experience with Michaela and truly can’t recommend her enough. We were out of town for our wedding, and knowing our two dogs were in such caring, capable hands gave us so much peace of mind. She went above and beyond in every way—taking our dogs on runs to keep them active and happy, sending us frequent pictures and videos so we could stay connected, and even taking the time to vacuum and keep our home clean while we were away. It was such a thoughtful and unexpected touch, especially during such a busy and meaningful time in our lives. It’s clear how much she genuinely cares, not just about pets but about the people they’re helping, too. We came home to two very happy, well-exercised dogs and a spotless house. We are so grateful and would absolutely trust her again without hesitation!

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Roselle walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Roselle maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Roselle choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

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.
