“We were gone for 3 weeks, and Amanda handled everything for our 4 kitties so well! We got so many great photos and plenty of reports. One of our pets ate something she shouldn't, and Amanda ended up taking her to an emergency vet and spending half the night there with her. She was calm and professional, helping us work with the vet and reach a successful, healthy outcome. It was a real comfort to know she was caring for Jovie, Arlo, Luna, and Mama Kitty.”

“She took notes during the meet and greet, which gave me confidence. She left detailed notes after each visit, which lowered by anxiety greatly. She let me know when she was going to be late, something I had approved of before hand as long as she told me in advance. No cat sitter is perfect but of everyone ive worked with, she is the closest”

About: I have been in love with cats and dogs for as long as I can remember! I grew up with 2 cats and 1 dog in my household as well as chickens, a bearded dragon, a turtle, fish, guinea pig, and a rabbit! Currently I have no animals but I still have the same amount of love for them! I have taken care of my friends and families animals and I’m always happy to meet some new animal friends!! 😍 I am currently a musician part time which means my schedule is flexible and I’m happy to visit your animals whenever is best for their schedule! I will happily send you picture and video updates for your animals! I love to play with them using their favorite toys and don’t mind spending some extra time for some snuggle sessions while I’m there :) I am a musician which means work comes and goes and I make my own schedule so I am extremely flexible and happy to visit whenever! We always had an "electric" fence for our dog which would gently vibrate her collar if she got out of the boundary. She was well trained and very attentive. Our cats were indoor cats and we made sure they knew they shouldn't try and get outside or on counters. The chickens and rabbit were fenced in outside in a giant chicken coop and since I was handling animals at a young age I am very familiar with how to gently care for them.

About: I am an animal lover. I used to work at an animal shelter and now I work part time at PetSmart so I’m quite familiar with the needs for animals and I know the kind of care to provide for an animal. I have one adorable dog! A border collie and he gets along with everyone! Really looking forward to meeting your baby and will give them the best care and attention I can! Also have 2 little kids at home (2&4) that are used to dogs of all sizes! 🥰 &They love playing with dogs! All dogs I watch will get sent home with a little goodie! And if the dog isn’t too squirmy or aggressive I will even trim and grind their nails! 🥰 Usually accept 1-2 family’s at a time. So if your pet needs a little quieter household do let me know more so in advance so I can get no other bookings 😌 I work 2 days a month at petsmart. A stay at home mom of 2. So I’m almost always home, always enjoy a little bit more excitement in our day! I have a fenced in yard and a dog that would love to play outside with yours. If they love playing fetch my pup and kids love to throw the ball around to help keep everyone entertained for hours!

“We set up a drop in before having Clowee stay with our two Great Danes for the weekend. She was wonderful — she was warm, great with our two dogs, and she has experience with animals who need medication. Our dogs got on well with her right away—she asked great questions and was very open to caring for two high maintenance pups. We can’t wait for her to stay with them.”

About: What sets me apart is that I genuinely treat pets as members of the family, not just animals I’m watching. I have experience caring for dogs with different personalities, including shy or nervous dogs who need extra patience to build trust. I’m attentive to details, follow routines closely, and understand how important consistency is for a pet’s comfort and well-being. Because I care for my own dogs daily, I’m comfortable recognizing changes in behavior, appetite, or energy levels and communicating concerns promptly. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, and affection while also respecting each pet’s individual needs and boundaries. My goal is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and at home while their owners are away, and for owners to have peace of mind knowing their pets are receiving personalized care. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. I have two dogs, so I’m used to feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, monitoring behavior, and making sure they get plenty of attention throughout the day. I also stay on top of things like cleaning up after them, maintaining their routine, and watching for any signs that something might be off. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so fitting pet care into my day feels very natural. In my home, pets are treated like family. I maintain a consistent routine for feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, exercise, and playtime. I provide a safe, clean, and supervised environment where pets receive plenty of attention and affection throughout the day. I closely monitor their behavior, appetite, and energy levels and will follow any instructions regarding medications, dietary needs, or special care. My goal is to make pets feel comfortable, secure, and loved while they are in my care.

About: I have grown up with dogs, cats, birds, and reptiles. I have a special place in my heart for all of them. I currently share my home with one Great Dane and four kitties (all rescues!) I am here to help on weekday evenings, holidays, and weekends. My home has a dedicated room for cat boarding and my goal is to be safely equipped for dogs soon! I have house sat for many families and their pets throughout my life, have volunteered at and donated to local shelters, and have been a contributing member of the ASPCA and WWF for 10+ years. A “fun fact” about me is that I was featured in the National Geographic World magazine in 1999 for raising money and awareness about both local and national animal welfare needs 🩷 I work approximately 15 minutes from my home and utilize lunchtime (NLT 12:00 PM) to check on the pets. My schedule is typically Monday-Friday one week then Monday-Thursday the next week (alternating) and am home by 4:15 PM each day. I work two weekends out of every three month period and have all federal holidays off. My home has a small bedroom that is set up for cats 🐈 to enjoy, with more to come. Their room includes a scratching post seated under a window, tons of toys, and an automatic litter box connected to my phone so that I can always monitor it (two large stainless steel litter boxes or a Breeze pellet system are also available, if preferred). There is also a camera in your room for an extra set of eyes! You will have stainless steel food, drinking fountain (stainless steal bowls available, if preferred), a large pet bed, soft blankets , treats - only if allowed - and plenty of other options depending on your kitty’s needs and preferences. My cats have their own spacious, separate area set up downstairs. They are all friendly, altered, and vaccinated (records available upon request). My dog 🐶 is house trained and vaccinated as well. Though he loves everyone, especially kitties, your fur baby will stay in their own room for everyone’s safety and comfort. Floors, litter boxes, and food/water bowls are sanitized daily. The closest vet is approximately 15 minutes away and the Peoria County emergency vet is around 25 minutes from my home. I am happy to provide additional information, photos, and references upon request.

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have several years of pet-sitting experience. I’ve cared for pets for multiple families, including a long-term recurring client who I visit during the week for potty breaks and companionship. I offer drop-in visits, dog walks, and overnight care in your home. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities, as well as cats and other animals. I’ve even cared for farm animals including chickens, geese, and pigs! I know every pet has their own personality and routine, so I try to keep things as familiar and comfortable as possible while you’re away. Whether that means a quick potty break during a long workday, meals and playtime, a walk, or staying overnight while you’re on vacation, I’ll make sure your pets get plenty of attention and care. I also love taking photos and sending updates so you can see how your pets are doing while you’re away! I work from home and have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide pet care throughout the day. I offer drop-in visits, potty breaks, walks, and overnight care depending on your pet’s needs. For overnight stays, I may leave for work, errands, family time, or other pet-care visits, but I’ll always follow your pet’s normal routine and make sure we discuss their schedule ahead of time. I care for pets in the comfort of their own home, where they can stay in a familiar environment and keep their normal routine. I follow all care instructions closely, keep doors and gates secure, and make sure pets have fresh water, meals, potty breaks, exercise, and attention as needed. I also send photo updates, so you know how your pet is doing while you're away.

About: What sets me apart is my real, everyday experience caring for animals. I handle high-energy dogs like my Belgian Malinois, volunteer at shelters, and provide patient, loving, reliable care. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine with college. I make time to walk, play with, and care for dogs because I genuinely enjoy being around animals and helping with pet sitting. At a client’s home, I care for pets by following their normal routine for feeding, walks, and playtime to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I give plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship, and make sure they feel safe and cared for while their owner is away.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Towne Oaks

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

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.

All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

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.
