When we needed a sitter for our babies again, we came to Jacee as she was so amazing the first time! This time we arranged for her to drop-in twice a day as my babies are very fond of her. She was absolutely awesome! We did not worry about the kitties at all. Jacee sent us regular and detailed updates. I completely trust her to take care of my babies.

Samantha did a wonderful job dropping in to check on my dog when my usual help was not available. My dog was a little wary at fist but Samantha was great and made her feel comfortable. If I need services in the future for my dog, I will definitely reach out to see if she's available.

About: I have been around dogs my entire life since I was 3 years old. My experience includes dogs of all ages, from young puppies to senior dogs up to 14 years old. Growing up with dogs has taught me how to understand their different personalities, needs, and routines. I regularly care for my family's dogs whenever my parents are out of town, handling daily walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and providing companionship. In addition, I have cared for dogs and other pets for family members and friends while they travel. I take pride in being dependable, attentive, and making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. What sets me apart is my lifelong experience with dogs, my reliability, and the genuine care I provide to every animal I look after. I treat every pet as if they were my own and work hard to maintain their normal routine so they feel happy and secure. As a Physical Therapy student, my weekdays can be busy with classes and studying, but caring for animals remains an important part of my daily routine. Every day, I make sure my pets are fed before I leave for school and again when I return home. I also stay on top of responsibilities such as cleaning the litter box and making sure all of my animals are comfortable and well cared for. My weekends are much more flexible, allowing me to dedicate additional time and attention to pet care. Because I balance a demanding academic schedule with caring for my own pets, I am organized, responsible, and committed to maintaining consistent routines. Pet owners can trust that their animals will receive dependable care, attention, and affection while they are away. When caring for pets in a client's home, my top priorities are safety, trust, and maintaining a comfortable environment for the pet. I understand that pets feel most secure when they can stay in their normal routine, so I make every effort to follow the owner's instructions regarding feeding schedules, walks, medications, playtime, and any special needs. For dog walks, I will ensure dogs are securely leashed, remain aware of our surroundings, and provide exercise appropriate for their age and energy level. During drop-in visits, I will make sure pets have fresh food and water, clean up after them as needed, and spend quality time giving them attention and companionship. I treat every home with respect and every pet as if they were my own. I am dependable, attentive to details, and committed to keeping owners updated so they can feel confident that their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while they are away.

Ray is an excellent guy. He's always available and I trust him 100% with my dog. I went on a trip to Panama City for 4 days and he took care of my pup. He asked all the right questions. Took notes and took my dog to some great places and sent me pics all the time. Don't hesitate to book Ray if you have the opportunity!!!

About: My family has rescued animals my whole life, and I have worked with all kinds of animals professionally since my very first job at a dog groomer. Since then, I've spent most of my time working at emergency animal vets, with foster dogs, and at doggie daycare! I love working with all species of animals and will treat yours just like my own! I'm here to make sure your pets feel happy, loved, and safe while you're away. I currently have a pretty open schedule and am looking to care for pets full time. I can easily do late nights and early mornings! When I stay in your home, I stick closely to your pet's normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure. I'll make sure they're fed on time, exercised, and getting lots of attention (and cuddles if they want them!) I pay close attention to each pet's needs and act accordingly. I pride myself on being dependable and having strong communication skills. I will always keep you updated with messages and pictures so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.

My cat can be finicky when we travel and doesn't want to eat properly. Not an issue this trip. Thanks to Jackie. She made it a family affair including her daughter in pet care. This is great in my opinion as it teaches responsibility and proper pet care as well as offers new experiences for the pets she's caring for. My kitty is getting old & lazy, but she responded well to their care and is happy and healthy. Thank you! Will reach out in the future as needed.

Nicholas did a great job looking after my cat. She was always very shy and he would make sure to find where she was which would sometimes take a bit longer as she found new hiding spots. He completed all tasks that I asked of him. He was always on time and very professional.

About: **PLEASE NOTE: I love exploring new areas and am happy to travel farther for overnight and house-sitting bookings. For stays located more than 30 miles away from my home, a small travel adjustment may apply depending on distance and length of stay.** INTRO: I’ve worked with all kinds of dogs through daily walks, drop-ins, and longer stays — from high-energy breeds to shy or anxious pups who need a softer approach. I’m very attentive to details, routines, and behavior changes, and I always make sure each dog feels safe and understood. My weekly routine is very flexible, which makes pet care easy to build around. I split my time between volunteer work, errands, and studying at the library, and I schedule those things around my pet visits. Because of that flexibility, I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening walks. When I’m doing dog-sitting, I structure my day around the dog’s routine — feeding, bathroom breaks, playtime, and whatever helps them feel comfortable. I’m used to adjusting my schedule so pets get the consistency and care they’re used to. Their routine becomes my routine. I follow the pet’s routine exactly as the owner lays it out. Every dog is different, so I match their needs — feeding schedule, walk times, bathroom breaks, and any special instructions. I keep the home clean, make sure doors and crates are secured, and always double-check leashes, harnesses, and gates before we go out. I pay close attention to behavior and energy levels, especially with anxious dogs or seniors, and I give them plenty of reassurance and calm company. I send updates and photos during each visit so owners feel confident and connected while they’re away. My goal is to make the pet feel safe in their own space and keep everything running smoothly until their family comes home.

About: I’ve often been told I’m a bit of a “dog whisperer” because pups seem to gravitate toward me, and I think it’s because they can sense my genuine love for animals. I’ve been a dog lover since childhood, growing up with 4 family dogs, and that passion has only grown over the years. I recently cared for my own senior pomeranian, who lived to 18, so I understand the patience, gentleness, and extra attention that senior pups need. On the other end of the spectrum, I know the energy and consistency it takes to care for playful puppies. Right now, I share my home with two spoiled rescue dogs, Chico (chihuahua) and Squeaks (tripod Pomeranian) who remind me daily how much joy and comfort pets bring into our lives and family. I have taught my dogs how to sit, stay, down, shake, come, and spin. So maybe I can even teach your dog some new tricks :) I also know how stressful it can be to leave your furry family member at home. My goal is to be their bright spot while you’re away, whether that’s a walk, a potty break, or simply some kisses, belly rubs, and companionship. I’ll treat your dog like one of my own! I currently work from home and have a flexible schedule to fit in drop-ins, potty breaks, quick walks (10-15) min, kisses and belly rubs during the day while you are away! Right now I only offer drop-ins, potty breaks, and quick walks for your furry babies. I do not offer any home services at my personal residence. If any service is requested outside of the normal services offered, I would be happy to help and discuss prior to my drop-in visit.

About: I've had dogs all dogs all my life. Successfully raised and trained them all from puppies. Had to administer insulin to my senior doggo for well over 5 years with no complications. I currently work full time Mon-Fri and some Saturdays 9am-5pm at a Hospital. Just looking to pick up some extra work while enjoying time with fur babies. I will be going to your home to care for your pets due to my apartment having a strict no dog policy. Whatever you need I am there for it.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Schiller Park

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Schiller Park on Rover is $16.35 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 5,909 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Schiller Park. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Schiller Park. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% 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.
