About: I am a Veterinarian Technician with 7 years experience. I graduated from Fox college Vet Tech Institute and working with animals is my passion. I have experience working with Dogs, Cats, Rodents, Rabbits, Exotics, and Birds. I offer additional care for seniors pets (Ex: taking them on shorter more frequent walks) and pets who have health concerns. (Ex: Giving medications). Book with me and your pet will be in great hands! I am available 7 days a week! I offer Early morning walks, afternoon walks, evening walks, and night time walks. What ever time works for you most likely works for me! I live in an animal friendly apartment! I have a large kennel if your pet prefers to sleep in one. I have a big field of grass behind me for leash walks / play time.
About: I have experience grooming and administrating medicine to furry friends that don't enjoy the process. Big or small, quiet or loud, friendly or shy I accept all pets and treat them as if they were my own. I babysit full time which includes pet sitting. I have open availability to take last minute bookings. I have the luxury to do this full time and love to work with peoples schedules. I have a fur baby named Micheal Jackson. He is a 5 year old long haired cat. He gets fed a variety of different foods to maintain a healthy diet. Plenty of enrichment activities, and soon a new fur friend?
“I have been put completely at ease with securing a sitter for my beloved pups! Mariah is attentive to my dogs needs & regular routine. My pups look forward to seeing her come thru the door. She goes above & beyond the call of duty making sure my pups get ample mental & physical stimulation during her drop in visits. Thank you Mariah for being the best drop in sitter around!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was a kid. I have house sat for at least three different people and took care of their pets! I’ve worked with senior dogs and puppies. I also have a part time job at a pet store so I have a decent amount of knowledge on pets and am more than happy to get things from the store for you! I have also administered medicine to a dog with health issues so I am comfortable administering medicine. I work part-time at a pet store! But I have time in between these things to drop in on pets and walk them, play with them, and even feed them. I’m happy to do whatever needs to be done’ My cat is older so she doesn’t play much anymore, but I’ve played with lots of kitties before. I’ve also played with dogs, big and small. My old home had a fenced in yard that I used to play with the dogs in. I no longer have that, but I love taking my own dog on long walks to burn off some of that energy!
“Chloe was super nice and accommodating when I had to make a change of plans last minute! 10/10 would recommend and she took super cute pictures to keep me updated as well!”
About: I’ve had pets my whole life ranging from fish, amphibians, rodents, birds, cats, and dogs. I love connecting with animals and giving them all the love they deserve! I also am a former vet assistant (I now work at a vet lab) so I have experience with pets of all ages, temperaments, and health statuses. My priority is the pets’ safety and comfort, and will work with them to ensure we have a foundation of trust. I also can work enrichment into my visits to get their minds more stimulated or just give them a 15 minute belly rub if that’s more up their alley. I’ve also trained many of my pets so I can help introduce basic commands to puppies or reinforce commands and manners from older pets. I’m available pretty much every day for the summer. Once mid-August comes around, I’ll be available Sunday-Tuesday at all times and Wednesday-Saturday from 9-11 AM I can come in let the pets out, clean up messes from them, feed/water, play enrichment games or work on training, and give them lots of love!
“Just like most pet owners, my fur babies mean the world to me, that’s why I continue to request Coretta to take care of them when I’m away from home. My youngest fur baby is quite rambunctious and can DEMAND your full attention. Coretta handles him like a pro! I can’t imagine anyone else taking care of my three stooges!”
“Anna is so good with our Yorkie mix. He was a rescue and is suspicious of strangers. Anna did everything right, and now they’ve become fast friends. Anna makes a point of sending pictures and updates. We’re so happy with her care!”
About: Hi my name is Asia. I’m really excited to have extra income but I’m more in it for the loving animals. Animals are my life! I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets to care for. I have two bearded dragons, two cats, one dog, and one fish. In the mornings I go to the gym and after I’m pretty much open throughout the day until school starts, which is in the beginning of January. Feeding and watering animals,Playing with them and keeping them company, Walking the dogs, Grooming and brushing the animals' coats, Changing the cat's litter box, Providing health care if necessary.

About: I’ve grown up with all sorts of animals, I recently got a puppy and her training at home has been going great, I’ve taken care of many different breeds and ages, from puppies to senior dogs. I work for family part time and stay at home for the time being, I’m available for walks or potty breaks anytime during the week between 8am and 5pm When dealing with my own dogs potty breaks look like all of us going out at once, I don’t tend to leave dogs unsupervised unless told to do so, I love taking my dogs for walks and playing outside so good long walks are surely in store for your pups as well.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is I’ve taken care of pets from 0 years old to 16, multiple pets at a time, from cats to dogs to hamsters, and I love to do so more than anything. If you’re looking for someone to give your loved one some company, tire out an energetic puppy before you get home from work, or just plain old pet care, I’m your guy. I can take care of your pet part time, based on your needs! I can do frequent check ins and walks through out the day, stay for extended periods of time, or even house sit. My only off time is I currently work 11-7 on Saturdays and Sundays. I have a fenced, open yard with plenty of room for your pup to enjoy. I can also offer them enrichment with toys, treats, and another playful, well behaved pup who lives right upstairs.
“OMG! Elizabeth is the best!!! She is kind, she's dependable and she loves our doggies and boy do they live her! We are SO grateful for her. We met a lot of sitters trying to find the right fit for me and my family and Elizabeth was an instant Yes! We thank God for her and will always rebook with her! If you're tired of searching and trying to find a good, trustworthy sitter, look no further. Thank you Elizabeth!!! 💗”
About: I've had dogs my whole life including senior dogs and large dogs. I have experience in drop-in sitting for several days at a time. I've taken care of three small elderly dogs at once, including one that was completely blind and hard of hearing. I'm comfortable walking and bathing larger dogs, as I myself have had a dog over 100 pounds. I do not have professional experience, meaning I've never been paid to dog-sit, but I have been sitting for neighbors and friends for several years. He tenido perros todo mi vida, incluyendo perros grandes y de edad avanzada. Tengo experiencia cuidando perros a domicilio durante varios días seguidos. He cuidado a tres perros pequeños y mayores al mismo tiempo, entre ellos uno que era totalmente ciego y tenía problemas de audición. Me siento cómoda paseando y bañando perros grandes, ya que yo misma e tenido un perro de más de 100 libras. No cuento con experiencia profesional, es decir, nunca he cobrado por cuidar perros, pero llevo varios años cuidando los perros de vecinos y amigos. I am a full time university student working part time on my campus! All my classes are scheduled in the morning Monday-Thursday so I’m available after 3 then. Friday-Sunday I can be there for your pets anytime! I do not currently sit in my home, but I do have harnesses and leashes available if you do not already have one. We could discuss whether the leashes and harnesses I own are a good fit for your furry friend! :)
About: I have my own animal and my friends have pets that is am very fond of, I babysit as well so I have quite a lot of experience Whenever you tell me of a job I’ll clear my schedule to walk and play with them every 3-4 hours, let them relax give them some treats I’ll watch them carefully and pony give safe toys and things to play with, I believe if you tire them out there better behaved!!
“Jacquelyn and Ryan arrived on time and immediately connected with my senior fur babies. They were gentle and kind to me (as I am recovering from surgery and can't do much yet) and to my dogs. I trusted them and look forward to using their services again soon!”

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 Steger 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.
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 Steger 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!
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 dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Steger with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
