“Nathalia took wonderful care of my cat, SunTie! She was very responsible, kind, and attentive, and followed his care instructions carefully. I really appreciated the updates and felt comfortable knowing SunTie was in good hands while I was away. I would definitely recommend Nathalia and would be happy to book with her again in the future!”
“Maricela is amazing! She is always reliable, flexible, and truly goes above and beyond for our pups. We trust her completely and always have peace of mind knowing they’re in such great hands. We’re so grateful to have found her and couldn’t recommend her enough! 🐾❤️”
About: I’ve always been a lover and owner of many animals, dogs, ferrets, cats and reptilians. I’ve always had a soft spot for animals as a whole and I always will. I work until 5 on weekdays usually and then I’m free and more than happy to take your buddies out on walks anytime after 5. I’ve always paid attention to body expressions and if I see something I won’t hesitate to do whatever it takes to satisfy their needs. Whether it be a walk or food or potty time, I’ll care for them as they were my own because they deserve the best.
“Great communication. I tried to contact 3 other providers and Valerie was the only one who responded. And she responded within an hour or two. Would definitely use her again.”
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: Animals have always held a special place in my heart, and caring for them has been a passion of mine for as long as I can remember. Through Rover, I’m able to provide dependable, loving care for pets while giving their owners confidence and peace of mind while they’re away. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and at home while maintaining the routines they’re familiar with. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playing outdoors, relaxing on the couch, or simply getting plenty of attention and scratched behind the ear, I’m happy to accommodate their individual personality and needs. I take my responsibility as a pet sitter very seriously and treat every animal in my care with patience, affection, and respect. I have experience with a wide variety of animals and critters, not just dogs and cats and I believe every dog deserves the same level of care and attention, regardless of breed, or size. I look forward to meeting you and getting to know your furry family member! I make my own schedule at work, so am able to put your animal friend first and foremost! I'm here for you, rain or shine! As your sitter, I happily follow any and all instructions to the letter. Written, or verbal rules accommodated equally. I'm happy to have video chats with you when in your place of residence to ensure your animal friends you're always nearby.

“Sabrina came on same day notice and was very clear and quick in her communication. We actually never met her because we had to be gone all day unexpectedly and had to trust her to come in our home alone and handle our 10 week old puppy.

“Hannah was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of our 2 cats Meko & Misty. We looked forward to all her reports. She sent us several pictures of her playing and petting both cats. So I know they had a great time. We hadn't asked but she went ahead and put our garbage cans out for us. We were on a family vacation and I recommended her to my son & daughter-in-law as they were not happy with their cat sitter. We're planning a short trip next month and will definitely book her again.”

I’m currently studying so some fur friends to keep me company are very welcome! My days are very busy, so I’m mostly available on night sits, otherwise drop in sits are good!

You will receive regular updates and photos, giving you total peace of mind knowing your home is respected and your pet is receiving dedicated, loving care.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Streamwood is $24 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $36 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 12,175 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Streamwood. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Streamwood 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 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 Meet & Greet.
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 Streamwood with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Streamwood. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 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.
