“Sara was fantastic! She kept in touch with me throughout my trip and sent pictures. She did everything I asked her to do. She is very friendly, a very sweet, respectful young lady. I highly recommend her to everyone!”
“All I can say (write) are words of praise and gratitude for Lisa. She is Amazing! She is so attentive, considerate and truly super sweet. I received pictures and updates. My girl (dog) fell in love with Lisa, which shows and proves how well Lisa took care of her. Lisa not only fed my girl by my noted instructions, she also washed all of my pets feeding measurement cups. that was a detail that blew me away. I didnt ask for any of that. Lisa went above and beyond. It was really cold and Lisa walked my girl and let her enjoy a little outdoors. I didnt stress on my out of town travels as my girl (dog) was in good hands. I will definitely ask for Lisa’s services again and again. Thank you Lisa for everything.”
“Thank you for caring for Baby. It gave me such a peace of mind while I was away. Thank you so much for the toy for baby, that was such a kind gesture! Would hire again”
“Brandon was very diligent about keeping me posted throughout his house sitting assignment, including providing me with photos as well as how my dog was doing. I will reach out to him first going forward whenever I have a need for sitting my dog.”
About: I have grown up with dogs and cats and have experience caring for both. I have my own pet dog who is a 10 year old mixed breed. I have administered medications and am comfortable caring for pets with special needs. I am a college student and am free for the summer. Have plenty of time to spend with your pets. I like going on walks with my dog clients and am happy to offer pets and treats to your fur baby while you are away. I can provide companionship, walks, feeding and toileting for your pets. Comfortable with both dogs and cats and can assist with any special needs they may have.
About: I’m experienced with all animals including reptiles. They are all babies in my eyes. I grew up with tons of animals and now have a pitbull and a kitty aswell. I’m familiar with special needs such as medication and can provide special accommodations. I currently run my own business so i am usually free to come and say hi to your baby. I’m always out walking aswell so walking pets is added fun. I always have an eye on pets i sit and walk. Any odd behavior or unsure behavior will be noted. Checkup updates will be provided as i would want someone to do the same for my baby. I will make sure leashes and collars are secure and accurate for the services.
“This past week, we had our first ever experience using Rover. I’ll admit, we were hesitant to have, for lack of better terms, a stranger staying in our home taking care of our two dogs. As soon as we met Robin at the meet and greet, the hesitancy fell away. She stayed in our home for four nights and the way she communicated, how she very clearly loved on our babies, and the care, attention, and commitment she showed to the job was evident from moment one. Robin sent countless photos and videos while we were away and each one only showed how much she cared. Not to mention, our boys looked as happy and as comfortable as could be. Robin spoke to us like we have been friends for ages and she immediately picked up on the quirks of our dogs while not holding it against them. When we arrived home, we were greeted with the most adorable, hilarious, and detailed report of how our boys did while we were away. We have already asked Robin to come back for our next planned trip and would highly recommend her to watch your fur babies. Thank you, Robin, for going above and beyond! We can tell the boys already miss you.”
“Kathryn is a very conscientious worker, and the pet sitter of my dreams! She spent extensive time with my cat, way beyond my expectations. She gave Jim Cats by constant attention, and he loved her and looked content in the many fabulous photos she sent. I was thrilled to feel connected through these updates, and to see my cat luxuriating in the petting and good care. Kathryn also diligently communicated about house challenges and solved them— again, going above and beyond. She is very flexible, patient. understanding, and helpful. Somehow Kathryn also made time to leave the house in perfect condition, exactly as she found it. She is a fantastic worker and pet whisperer, and we hope she will come back many times in the future.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter than Brit! She took amazing care of our senior lab and our two cats while we were away, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. She was attentive, reliable, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. Our older dog can need a little extra care, and Brit handled everything with patience and compassion. We came home to happy, well-cared-for pets and a house just as we left it. Highly recommend Brit to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”
About: I offer a home-based boarding experience designed for pets who deserve thoughtful, elevated care. My home is calm, beautifully maintained, and intentionally structured—ideal for dogs who thrive on routine, comfort, and personalized attention. I share my home with a 15-year-old miniature poodle, so I selectively welcome only gentle, compatible dogs to maintain a peaceful, low-stress environment. With limited capacity, each guest receives attentive supervision, individualized care, and a nurturing, high-quality stay. I’m enjoying early retirement and have chosen to devote my time to providing full-time, attentive care for dogs. This allows me to be consistently present, unhurried, and deeply focused on each guest’s comfort, routine, and overall well-being throughout their stay. I have a beautiful and clean spacious split level home for your fur baby to freely move around in. My home features a securely fenced yard designed for safe, supervised playtime. Dogs enjoy calm outdoor breaks and gentle activity in a controlled environment, always under attentive supervision to ensure comfort, safety, and peace of mind.
About: I am an experienced dog lover! I grew up with a dog and have had a few of my own. From an 8 lb long-haired Doxie to a 140 lb German Shepherd, I have loved my dogs. I will treat your dog like my own! I am a dog lover that you can trust! I currently have a grand-dog, Teddy, who is a Lab Golden mix. He loves to visit and spend the night. We take Teddy on walks in our quiet neighborhood. Teddy even lets me trim his nails and hair. Please contact me for any dog need. You can trust me in your home and with your dog. Please don't hesitate to contact me. I would love to stop by to meet your family member!
About: I love all the animals <3 I have some free time occasionally and thought this would be nice to do for a while. I had a yorkie for 13 years. I also have 2 cats, who have turned me into a (part time) cat person, (full time) dog lover. I also have a 5 year old 100# blood hound and a 5 year old child, who also loves all the animals. I believe she’ll be a vet on day… or an artist. I have time to walk or sit. I have a large fenced in yard to play. I will not cat sit in my home only because I know how good cats are at hiding, but I am very happy to cat sit in your home. I work a part-time like schedule so have plenty of time for pet sitting/ walking. Also my work schedule varies by day and sometimes time, I update my calendar here for availability. I have a large fenced in yard to play and a trail nearby for walking. I dont mind pets all over my house and dont mind them on the couches either. I have crates available if needed.
“Jackie was amazing! This was my first time using the service and after meeting her I felt completely comfortable leaving her with my dog. My dog is older and requires special attention and Jackie took extremely good care of her. She even sent pictures. I would highly recommend to anyone!”
About: Hi, I’m Chanty. I’m based in Oak Forest and love spending time outdoors with dogs. I had a Yorkie for 15 years, so I’ve cared for dogs through all stages of life. I’ve also helped care for pit bulls, rescued young pups, and regularly look after my sister’s Maltese. I treat animals like family. I care for them with the same love and attention I’d give my own, playing and interacting with them based on their needs and energy, while also keeping up with routines, cleanliness, and any special needs they may have. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone new, so I am happy to meet you and your pup beforehand. I also make it a point to keep you updated during visits with photos, messages, and anything else that would help you feel connected and reassured while you’re away. I get around by bike and offer nearby walks and drop-ins full of play, love and personalized care. Whether your pup needs adventure, calm companionship, or even just a bath, I’d love to help out! Pet care fits easily into my routine because I work freelance online and create my own schedule. I’m very flexible and can adapt week to week to meet your needs, whether you need a regular walker or occasional drop-ins! When I’m in someone else’s home or caring for their pet, I treat it all with the same respect I treat my own. You can trust that I will follow whatever routines or instructions you give me, and I always leave things clean and as I found them. I try to really tune into each animal’s mood and needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for.
About: I have over five years of pet sitting experience and began caring for pets back in high school, where I built a pet sitting business of my own. Through that experience, I learned how important reliability, communication, patience, and personalized care are for both pets and their owners. I’m comfortable with dogs, cats, multiple-pet households, walks, feeding routines, playtime, and providing companionship. I also have many past clients in Florida who would gladly speak highly of my care and professionalism. As a pet owner myself with two dogs and one cat, I understand that pets are family and deserve genuine love and attention. I will be relocating to Homewood in mid-May and will have a very flexible summer schedule while taking online classes. This allows me to be available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, pet sitting, and last-minute needs. Because I travel by bike or electric scooter, I’m focusing on nearby clients so I can provide dependable, punctual care and consistent availability. Safety and trust are always my top priorities when caring for pets. In a client’s home, I carefully follow feeding schedules, walking routines, medication instructions, and household preferences to keep pets comfortable in their familiar environment. I make sure doors, gates, leashes, and surroundings are secure at all times. I provide gentle attention, exercise, companionship, and updates so owners feel confident knowing their pets are in caring and reliable hands.
“We had a wonderful experience with Patrick house/dog-sitting for us! He came over for a meet-and-greet before our trip, which we really appreciated and helped us feel confident leaving our dogs in his care. Throughout our vacation, he kept us updated with photos and messages, so we always knew our pups were doing well. He was very responsive, took great care of both our dogs and our home, and left everything clean and just as we left it. We came home to happy dogs and had complete peace of mind while we were away. We’d absolutely book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, communicative, and trustworthy sitter!”

Brit did an amazing job with our dachshund Ranger. She was very attentive, sent frequent pictures/ updates, and followed all instructions to make sure he maintained his routine. We have a very high energy boy and she made sure all his needs were met. 10/10 would book again. She was responsive and on time. Thanks again Brit!
Karen was great! We had her stay with our dog for an extended amount of time, and Alani loved her! Alani was also going through a back injury, and Karen had no issues or concerns giving her medicine and keeping her comfortable! Alani already misses Karen and is still looking for her around the house!
This was the first time we used a pet sitter and we found Katelyn. Shes amazing with our senior diva Stella. What a wonderful experience for us. Katelyn took great care of Stella and she made sure Stella comfortable staying in our home. It was important that at 11 years young we didn’t want to board her. Katelyn sent us pictures and updates even though we were on a cruise. I gave Katelyn all stars she deserved then as Stella can be picky with warming up.
Super appreciative of Bailey and her good nature! I was very nervous leaving my old gal for a few days, especially not at our house. But Bailey assured me everything would be okay and it was! She was great at handling my girl, and her weird quirks did not deter Bailey at all from taking great care of her. Would definitely recommend and will definitely be using Bailey in the future if she wants to watch my pup again!
Katherine made herself available at the last minute to watch our home and care for our Moose and did such a great job. We got tons of photo updates and she was very communicative. Moose actually spent the morning after our return looking around the house for Katherine as she misses her already!

FAQs for House Sitting - Tinley Park
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Tinley Park on Rover is $49.22 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 7,702 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Tinley Park. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Tinley Park walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Tinley Park maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Tinley Park 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Tinley Park. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
