About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience caring for animals and my genuine love for pets. I’ve had dogs since I was a child and currently have two cats of my own, so I understand the unique needs and personalities of both dogs and cats. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages and temperaments, and I know how important it is to maintain their routines and make them feel safe while their owners are away. I am dependable, attentive to details, and will treat your pets with the same care and affection I give my own. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I’m a speech therapist by trade in the school system. I am off for the summer and my schedule is wide open. I can accommodate your schedule. I treat every pet as if they were my own and tailor my care to their individual needs and routine. In my home, pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, fresh water, and a safe, clean environment. I follow any feeding schedules, medication instructions, and special care requests provided by the owner. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I strive to maintain their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I provide regular updates, photos, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of affection while respecting both the pet’s needs and the client’s home.
About: I have 3 large dogs in my household, all of very different personalities. On top of that, friends and family have also relied on me to take care of their pets while they are away as well. Recently, I have taken interest in animal rescue, and have helped rescue and send an injured mallard to the Chicago Bird Collision Monitors. I am currently a student at west aurora highschool, and I am a member of the national honor society. I come home to my three dogs and sometimes go to Oswego to take care of my families pets over there as well. I will be able to regularly check up on your pets and keep them well hydrated and fed. As well as going on walks to stay active.
About: I've been taking care of neighbors' pets since before I remember. I'm patient and also love to play. Whatever your pets need I'm here to serve! I am currently part time at my farm job. My schedule is relatively flexible. No blackout days or dates in my schedule. Moved to Aurora suburbs but still available for sitting jobs in Chicago I will ask for their typical schedule for walks and eating. I only pet sit in your home to try and keep the dog/ cats better adjusted to your absence. We don't want to have them feeling too anxious!
About: I'm a country kid from Illinois, through and through! I've been around horses, cats, dogs, even fish – you name it! Used to work my tail off as a Kennel/Daycare Attendant at an animal hospital, and now I'm the go-to house and pet sitter for my fam and some church buddies! From German Shepherds to goofy mutts, I've had 'em all growing up. Honestly, animals? They're my passion! Sometimes I think I love 'em more than people, haha! But seriously, I take my furry friendships seriously – building that bond takes time, and I'm all about keeping them safe, comfy, and showering them with belly rubs and love galore! I'm ecstatic to offer my house and pet sitting services, where I'll stay at your place from Friday nights to Sunday nights, providing round-the-clock care and companionship for your beloved pets!

Even on weekdays, after 7:30 PM, I'm ready to take your furry friends on energizing evening walks! Your pets' well-being and your home's security are my utmost priorities! I am bursting with excitement to offer my home boarding service! When I'm at your place, your beloved animals will be treated like royalty!

“Samantha did a great job of taking care of our almost 11 year old Zeus! We had some drop in visits and Samantha sent us notes and photos of her time with Zeus. We were very happy and highly recommend.”
“Alexandra was amazing with our dog. She gave so many updates, was responsive to all of my messages, and made me feel so comfortable leaving Max at home where he prefers to be. We will definitely rebook Alexandra the next time we need a dog sitter.”
“Jaime was a wonderful sitter. She dropped in to our home for our 3 dogs for 3 days. One is an elderly dog and the other two are high energy dogs. Jaime stayed as long as necessary (longer than requested) to ensure the dogs were properly cared for. She was on time and very communicative. I highly recommend Jaime to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter! Thanks Jaime!”
About: I've taken care of dogs for over a year. Friends and family always come home to a happy pooch! I'll also ensure your fur babys wellbeing by providing appropriate food and water. Caring for pets is part of my daily routine, not just a side task. I am available full-time during the week to ensure your fur baby receives dependable, loving, and structured care. I have a fenced yard were your fur baby can run and play. If your fur baby needs assistance with medication you can ensure I will be there to make sure their medication is taken on time.
“Cristal was AMAZING! She truly took a lot of the stress of us worrying about our dogs when we’re traveling and the pups looked so happy in all the pictures she sent our way. So appreciative of her love & care towards my fur babies!”
“Amy is simply the best! We can leave our little fur babies and completely enjoy our trips since we know they are under her care. She is so kind and our cats love her! Five stars isn’t enough!!!”
About: I started dog sittng in college for my professors and quickly grew to love it. I've gained experience walking, feeding, and caring for dogs, and I bring these skills to my own pets as well. I'm excited to provide the same care and attention to your dog while you're away. I work from home, so my schedule is flexible and I can accomodate your need. I also offer pickup and drop-off services for a small fee. I have a fenced yard providing a secured space for your dog to play and relax. I also have a senior male Australian Shedperd who loves to play with other dogs, so your pet will have a friendly companion during the stay.
“Grace was friendly, responsive, and on time. My dog, who can be a bit shy and nervous around new people warmed up to Grace right away. That says a lot! Highly recommend.”
About: I've been caring for animals for over 12 years, starting with my own dog, Lola. Since both of my parents worked, I was often responsible for feeding her, taking her on walks, playing with her, and making sure she was well cared for. That experience taught me responsibility from a young age and helped me develop a genuine love for animals. Since then, I've cared for pets for friends, family, and neighbors, including dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I always strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while their owners are away. I am currently home for the summer, which means my availability is very flexible and I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pets. Once summer ends, I will be continuing my pilot training and taking online courses through Lewis University. Even then, my schedule will remain flexible, allowing me to continue providing reliable and attentive care for your pets. I have a fenced yard and one dog of my own, Phoebe, who is incredibly friendly and loves being around other dogs. She can play all day long and does a great job helping other dogs feel comfortable in a new environment! If your pet will be staying in my home, I would be more than happy to arrange a meet and greet beforehand so they can get to know Phoebe and make sure everyone is a good fit. Your pet's safety and well being are always my top priorities, and I will follow any routines or instructions you provide to help them feel right at home!
“There aren't enough great things to say about Anja and Josh. They absolutely take care of Biz like he were their own sweet boy. I am completely at ease knowing he is in good hands. Thank you again for everything!”
About: I have grown up always have dogs and cats in my house. I am currently a college student and missed having pets so much that I had to get my own dog! I am currently unemployed so this would be my only responsibility. I am enrolled in 1 summer class but it is being delivered remote so I can do it from anywhere with a stable WiFi connection I have a fenced in backyard and a playful puppy myself. I can easily follow any instruction you have or rules you have put in place for your pets!
“Can’t say enough great things about Erika! Our pups loved her and we felt safe they were safe in her care (most importantly). We always appreciate when sitters update us with pictures, and Erika updated us every drop in with pics and a daily detailed rundown which was above our expectations. She’s also dope as hell as a person and hopefully be our go to sitter next time we have to travel for work! Highly recommend (unless you need her the same time we do 🤪).”

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Sugar Grove 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 Sugar Grove 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 .

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 Sugar Grove with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
