“Michelle did a great job checking in on our cat for the week. She did everything we asked of her and more. Our cat liked her and we would definitely book her again.”
“Heidi was wonderful with Alaïa! 🐾 She came by to walk her and spend some time playing with her, and Alaïa clearly had such a great time. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was getting some exercise, attention, and love while we were away. We’re so happy we found Heidi and will definitely be booking with her again in the future! ❤️”
“Donna was terrific. I got updates every day with pictures. She went over and beyond what was expected. I forgot to turn on lights for the cats and it was so nice to pull up late at night and she remembered to leave lights on for them. She also brought in my mail and dealt with some unexpected accidents around the house from my older cat Lou. Will definitely book Donna again from my next trip”
“Mary-Kate did a fantastic job! I have two older cats that need to get medicine every day and she made sure they were both taken care of. I also have a super shy kitten who normally hides from strangers, but he came out to see her when she visited. It was a huge relief to find someone who did such an amazing job and was so great with all of my cats. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing a cat sitter.”
“Kelly was so great with our puppy! She was super quick with communication and sent pictures at the end of her visit. We will definitely be booking her in the future!”
“Jack is awesome! He is very knowledge and I feel my puppy is safe with him! He came at odd hours for me since I work overnights and I couldn’t be more grateful! He keeps you up to date with the app and photos which is very comforting!”
“Jillian was a true wonder!! I felt completely at ease with her care for my two cats. She showered a ton caring and affection on them, and really seemed to get their complicated feline dynamics! My kitty Jojo needs asthma treatment and Jill was at ease with administering (: She navigated his moods - and dealt with catio stressors - like a pro, and with good humor, and kept in close communication with me through it all! Highly recommend- if you want someone who both enjoys and "gets" your pets!”
“Abigail was wonderful with my cats! She was reliable, communicative, and sent regular updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while being away. It was clear my cats were well cared for and comfortable which is all I could ask for. Highly recommend! 🐱💕”
“Angela was wonderful with Mikey. He doesn’t like strangers and she manages to get him out from his hiding space. She arrived as promised and kept us informed. High recommendation’s from my husband, myself and Mikey.”
“Rachelle has been fantastic for our entire family! She responds quickly and is always prompt for our pups. I feel so grateful for all that she does for them while we are away. Pictures & videos are so much fun!!”
“Amby is absolutely amazing! She exceeded every expectation we had and cared for our feline fur kiddos with genuine love and professionalism. Our fur kiddos have extensive needs—medications, special feeding routines, and a fair bit of sanitation work—and Amby handled it all with ease and care. She kept us updated with photos during every visit, which brought so much peace of mind while we were away. Our fur kiddos were well-loved and looked after. We are so grateful to have found her and would recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, compassionate, and thorough pet sitter!”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats all my life and just the past few years started pet sitting! The families I sit for always know they can rely on me and loving their animals! I’m currently working part time at a salon but it is flexible and can stop by every 2-4 hours! I also am willing to do over nights depending on location might affect price! Any instructions left for me will always be taken care of, if you prefer walks or just being let out in the yard either works!
About: We have had pets in my family my entire life.. Started off with a cat, then two. My older sister begged for a dog and we finally got one. Now my parents have two dogs, and one cat. We've had birds, fish, guinea pigs, frogs, and a bearded dragon... I recently moved out of my parents house and am craving the love from pets. I used to help my aunt care for her cats when she got older. I would pet sit for friends and neighbors growing up and Rover is allowing me to get back into that. I take myself for walks because I'm not good at sitting still and they would be much more enjoyable with a pal! I am working remotely and part time. I am a social worker so I meet with clients via tele-health. I do have a set schedule, but it allows for flexibility and I am not currently accepting new clients so this won't change much. I am renting a house so cannot accept pets into it- as the home owners trusting me with their indoor and outdoor cats. I have always been very careful in other people's homes- trying not to leave a trace- unless it is a note about how things went!
The median cost per visit for cat sitting in Round Lake is $25

Kara is great. She managed to get my very skittish cat to come out from under the bed for proof of life pictures! She’s extremely reliable and consistently sent updates while we were away. Highly recommend having Kara watch your pets. I feel better knowing she’s checking on them.

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Round Lake on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Round Lake. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
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.
