“Peggy is excellent to work with and my puppies love her. She is conscientious and provides great service. She provides fresh water and cleans up after the boys. She sends pics too!”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐✨ We had a last minute worry about our cat sitting situation so I went on Rover for the first time. We were gone for a few weeks and felt really bad for the cats. We feel so lucky to have found Lisa. She ended up spending more time with our cats than scheduled. She also was able to fix the schedule when we had to make a change. There are other things that helped our peace-of-mind like turning the porch light off each day and bringing the mail in so our home didn't look vacant. She cleaned up before leaving. She left detailed notes and sent cute photos daily of cuddling and playing with our cats :) We will definitely reach out to Lisa for our cat sitting in the future.”
About: As a pet-mom to two high-effort dogs and a very attached cat, I know how important it is to have a reliable plan in place when you inevitably need to leave your babies. I’ve professionally cared for animals since I was 16, starting at PAWS Tinley Park as Jr. Volunteer. When I moved downtown for college, I transitioned to the PAWS in Lincoln Park and Chicago Anit-Cruelty Society. From these opportunities, I learned the immense patient, hard work and empathy it requires to care for pets of all kinds and at all life stages. From abandoned new born kittens to senior dogs awaiting a home to live out their golden years, I was touched by every single animal who trusted me with their care. There is no better feeling than watching an animal grow to trust you and feel safe when you’re around. My goal when caring for your pet is to give them the same love, patience, and attention I would want someone to give my own. I know how hard it can be to leave your pets behind, especially when they’re such an important part of your family. Whether it’s a walk around the neighborhood, cleaning a litter box, or an extended sleepover, I’ll take the time to learn their routines, understand their personalities, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Your pets deserve to feel at home even when you’re not there, and I’d be honored to give them that care. I currently have a full-time job, but work from home and make my own hours. I have an incredibly flexible schedule, and can be available for short check ins throughout the day, or move my “office” to your home to keep your pets company through the workday. I have a fully-fenced backyard with tons of grass. I have multiple areas in my house where your pet can interact with my two dogs only, with my cat only, or be completely separated with their own space. I can accommodate whichever situation works best for you and your pet!
“Suzanne took such great care of our pets! She was really communicative and let us know she was concerned about one of our cats not eating (due to missing us.) It was the first time we left our pets in the hands of someone through Rover and Suzanne exceeded our expectations! We are so thankful to her.”
About: I’m a lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I have two dogs of my own, one who is 12 years old and one who is 4, so I understand the different needs of both senior dogs and younger, more energetic pets. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, basic routines, and giving pets the extra patience and attention they may need. I know how important it is to feel completely comfortable with the person caring for your pet, so I treat every dog as if they were my own. I’m reliable, attentive, and happy to provide updates and photos while you’re away so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Pet care fits easily into my routine, and I have flexibility throughout the week for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal schedule and make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and companionship while you’re away. I treat every pet like I would my own. I have two dogs, including a senior dog, so I understand that every pet has different needs, routines, and comfort levels. I’m careful about doors, leashes, feeding instructions, medications, and keeping pets safe and comfortable. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow their normal routine as closely as possible.
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 have open availability to take last minute bookings and have the luxury to do this full time.This helps with my ability to work with people’s schedules. Drop in visits and walks are catered to each client. I am flexible with what is provided and have a willingness to adapt. Visits typically include feeding, enrichment activities, and walks.
“Brandon provided exceptional service, and I would highly recommend him. He went above and beyond to ensure our pet, Bruno, was well cared for, and we truly couldn’t have chosen a better sitter. Despite the short notice, Brandon made himself available, which allowed us to proceed with our trip when we thought it might not be possible. He checked on Bruno in our home, and we felt completely comfortable and confident having him there. We are very grateful to have found Brandon and would confidently recommend him to anyone in need of a reliable, trustworthy, and dedicated pet sitter.”
“Finn has been absolutely fantastic with my pup Bowser! Very flexible, clear communication, and attentive!! Bowser is high anxiety so having someone that he’s super comfortable with gives me all the confidence!!”
About: I have about eight years of experience caring for friends' and clients' pets when they are moving or on vacation. I have a very open schedule and my lines for communication are very open. I live in a condo in Oak Lawn and own my own car meaning I have reliable transportation to any of the surrounding areas, if required for your needs. Pets seem to make themselves right at home even if they haven't been there before. I love long walks and don't mind laying around the house or jumping up and going out every hour depending on the pet's needs or desires. I am friendly and pets seem to warm up to me quickly. I have a knack for anticipating a pet's needs and go to whatever lengths I need to keep them safe and happy. I'm lucky enough to be able to mold my schedule around your pet's schedule. So whatever walking and feeding routine you have them on I can easily adjust to fit their needs. I follow every detail the pet parent leaves me to the letter. Even if your pet needs me to spin around 3 times and pretend to microwave his/her food or ACTUALLY has food that needs to be microwaved! I make sure to review instructions with the client the day of so we both feel comfortable that we are on the same page and their fur baby is getting the best care.

“I give Iman 5 stars times 20. This is my first time using Rover and I selected Iman for home drop in visits for the week I was on work related travel. To say I was nervous is an understatement. However, from the time I met Iman I knew she was the right choice. I perceived her to be a gentle, compassionate and honest person. This was important to me considering the temperament of my fur babies. One is a rescue due to abuse and none have ever been border and I wanted them to stay in the comfort of their own home. Yes I got that vibe from just meeting her. Very positive ora and energy. Iman exceeded my expectation. My 4 fur babies took to her right away and she cared for them as I would. You can tell this is not just work for Iman it’s what she loves. She absolutely has a love for and way with animals.t antisocial cats were even drawn to her. She made sure the house was locked and secured each time and that the alarm was set. I will definitely continue to utilize her services for my fur babies. I can’t express my gratitude enough for having such an amazing and outstanding sitter. Also, they loved her dog food. ❤️”
“Erica has babysat our cat Domino in our home several times now. Domino is a cat that we took several months to rescue earlier this year. Consequently, she is shy and a bit skittish around new people. She bonded with Erica almost immediately! Erica has two cats of her own, so she knows a lot about them and their finicky nature. Erica has a warm and caring nature that comes across in the way that she communicates with Domino. She calls Domino her niece! Erica is fastidious with Domino’s litter box and feeds her twice daily. She sends us regular posts and updates regarding Domino’s antics. Erica spends time with Domino and plays with her. We miss Domino when we are gone, but never worry that she will be too lonely without us. We feel secure when we are away. We trust Erica with having the keys to our home. We have the utmost confidence that Erica will take great care of our fur baby.”
“Kaelyn was absolutely wonderful, scheduled the meet and greet quickly, my fur baby, Juicy, loved her. She sent photos every day, and I could see she was so comfortable with her. Made my trip away from my Juice so much easier to tolerate. Will be booking her moving forward whenever needed. Highly recommend. Juice and I thank you, Kaelyn!”
“Savanna was great with our two cats for drop in visits, with even our shy cat loving her by the end of the week! She was reliable and excellent with communication. We will pick Savanna next time we need a cat sitter. Highly recommend!”
“Danielle was great with Monarch. She took really good care of him, all of our instructions and showed up for every visit. I know that sounds basic but it is huge. We will definitely use Danielle again and can’t thank her enough.”
“I will never go to another sitter, ever! She takes care of my cat who is an absolute terror to people, and Ethel is bery kind to her. She goes above and beyond every time I have her!”

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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 .
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.

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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
