“Mel did an excellent job with our boys. She was always on time and I know the dogs appreciated the attention she gave them. She was also very flexible with a few last minute changes that really helped us out. I would gladly have her watch our dogs anytime!”

About: Dogs have always been a part of my life. I've cared for my own dogs from playful puppies to their senior years, giving them love, structure and companionship every day. Although I'm new to offering pet care professionally, I know how important it is to trust someone with your family member. I'll treat your dog with the same patience, kindness and attention I'd expect for my own, providing a safe, comfortable and loving home while you're away. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive care throughout the day to supervise, provide companionship, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention. Your dog's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I believe every pet deserves patience, kindness, and individualized care. I'll follow your dog's routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special instructions. I provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away, and I'll treat your dog like a member of our own family.

About: Grew up with dogs and cats and and have been caring for my own pets and watching/housesitting my friends animals for many years. A pet turns your place into a home! I work from home with a flexible schedule, therefore I can give full attention to your fur baby. Having a routine is important to dog's and cat's wellbeing - keeping the same schedule every day is key. My place has a closed-in patio and a yard just a few steps away. It is safe and quiet. The neighborhood is great for walking.

“We recently had the pleasure of hiring Chloe to take care of our beloved dog, Buttons, during our absence. Chloe was absolutely amazing! During her drop-in visits, she took Buttons for walks and spent quality time with her. Buttons, who can be a bit shy around strangers, immediately took a liking to her. She was gentle, patient, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. Chloe was also very communicative, sending us regular updates and photos of Buttons enjoying her walks and playtime. Overall, we would highly recommend Chloe to anyone looking for a reliable and caring individual to look after their pet. She provided excellent service and made us feel confident that Buttons was in good hands. We will definitely be using her services again in the future!”

About: I regularly help care for my aunt’s elderly, visually impaired poodle. I’m comfortable providing gentle, patient care, helping her safely navigate her surroundings, keeping her routine consistent, and making sure she feels comfortable and cared for. This experience has taught me to be very attentive, responsible, and patient when caring for senior pets Im currently available Thursday-Tuesday at any time preferably from 7am-8pm. Wednesday Im busy with school so this would be great to work with my schedule! I have a French Bulldog who is very active. She enjoys being outside and going on her daily walks. After her walks she still has the energy to play with her toys. I make sure she has plenty of exercise, fresh water, food, and attention throughout the day. They also are very sensitive with heat and with things they eat so I pay a close attention to see of any changes. I’m also comfortable keeping a pet’s space clean, following their routine, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for.

About: Animals have always been part of my life. Growing up, our family was constantly rescuing strays, helping lost pets find their way home, and occasionally falling in love and adding them to the family ourselves. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do—it’s something I genuinely enjoy. I currently share my home with my 11 year old son, our Australian Shepherd, Otis, and our two bearded dragons. I understand how much trust it takes to leave a beloved pet in someone else’s care. When your pet is with me, they’ll be treated like family. Whether they love long walks, belly rubs, playtime, or simply having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I know every pet is different, and I take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and personalities so their experience feels as stress-free as possible. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pet! I own a business, so I'm very flexible with availability during the week. Weekends I'm completely available. I will be here the whole time whenever we have visitors. I have a big yard for pups to play in. We love playing fetch or just sitting around our backyard enjoying our beautiful California weather. When we're not outside, inside our home is a calm environment.

About: I have been taking care of dogs under a company named Happy Tails back in my hometown of Colorado for the last five years, and have owned doggies my entire life :). I’m currently only working part time as a caregiver for the elderly, so I have plenty of time to take care of pets! I love and enjoy time spent with pets so it doesn’t even feel like work to me :), especially as outside of work I love to spend my time outside as much as possible, such as volunteering at our local farm, going to the beach, and going on hikes. I have a smaller house that’s cozy and home to cat of our own, alongside a fenced in small backyard. We keep the house quite clean too!

About: I've owned, walked and helped train dogs for 17+ years. I enjoy providing dogs of all breeds and sizes exercise and enrichment, and always put safety first. I carry an extra leash, water bowl, loud handheld horn in the event we encounter stray animals or critters, and also have pet crates in my vehicle should I need to transport a pet to a park or local greenspace at a pet parent's request. I'm currently super flexible as I'm starting up a dog related business from home. I am available M-F with some availability on weekends and after working hours with some notice. Having had many dog walkers and caregivers for my rescue pit bulls over the years, I know how important it is to treat each dog (and their home) like my own. I will provide exercise, TLC, fresh water and food (if food is requested), and plenty of snuggles before I depart.

About: I grew up raising three energetic Dachshunds and a black Labrador, so I’m used to both high-energy play and calm couch time. I’ve also helped adopt and train a German Shepherd. I match the dog in front of me — long walks and fetch when they need it, quiet time when they don’t. I’m patient, on time, and I send updates so you know they’re good. For the cat box (optional but better than leaving it blank): Comfortable with cats too — feeding, litter, play, and keeping their routine. Quiet house, no extra stress. Tap the check, then resubmit the whole profile after the photo is a clear close-up of your face. Whether it’s daily walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays, I’m here to make sure your furry family member is well cared for! I attend Chapman University in Orange and only have classes on Tuesday and Thursday. That leaves Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and weekends fully available. On class days I can still do drop-in visits between lectures. I only accept house-sitting bookings I can cover for the entire stay, and I confirm timing with you before anything is booked. When I house sit, I stay in your home, follow your household rules, and do not have visitors. Doors and gates stay secured. For drop-in visits I arrive on time, care for your pet, and leave the home as I found it. I send photo updates so you can see how they’re doing, and I follow their feeding, medication, and potty schedule exactly.

About: Caring for dogs isn’t just a job to me—it’s something I’m genuinely passionate about. I love spending time with dogs, going on walks, and getting to know their unique personalities. I’m using this as a fun way to gain more experience in dog walking and pet care while doing something I truly enjoy. I’d love the opportunity to give your pup some extra love, attention, and exercise I'm available from 6 am to 7 am and after work between 6 pm and 10 pm! Weekends I am quite flexible at the moment. I will carefully follow the instructions the owner has given me. My friends call me a mother as I am responsible, caring, and always have whatever my friend group needs. Honestly, I will bring those characteristics into this field as well.

About: I have cared for dogs for as long as I can remember. I was gifted my first dog at 6 years old, but it was until she had puppies that I really learned how much we can learn from dogs. I have cared for 4 litters of puppies throughout my life, but I am also familiar with adult dogs of all breeds. I have been my neighborhood’s pet-sitter for very long, but now that I have moved from my hometown I’d love to get to know some new furry friends. I am currently a student-athlete at UH Hilo, but I have pretty eventless afternoons along with some free days during the week and most weekends. I have a gate that will keep your pet in the safety of my home, as well as a lot of walkable, open grass areas to keep your pet entertained!

Yerim was amazing with our cat while we were on vacation. She was so thoughtful and caring with our shy cat! You can tell she really loves animals! Our cat is shy but by the end of the trip he was greeting Yerim at the door purring! She is also great at communicating and responds very quickly. We loved all the photos and videos she sent of our kitty while we were gone! We knew he was in great hands while we were away. I would 100% book her again!

Mel was such a blessing to us! She helped us out in several last-minute situations while we were staying at an RV resort in Orange, and we’re so grateful we found her. It gave us such peace of mind knowing Winston was with someone who was trustworthy, reliable, caring, and genuinely kind. She took wonderful care of him, and we felt completely comfortable leaving him in her hands. We would absolutely love to have Mel watch Winston again the next time we’re in the area. It’s such a great feeling knowing that when we come back, we have someone we can depend on. Thank you so much for everything, Mel! ❤️🐾

We were nervous about leaving our two cats, Smokey and Everest, alone for a month while we traveled, but Brian put our minds at ease from the very first visit. He followed all of our instructions perfectly and always responded quickly to messages. He sent photos every day, and it was so nice watching our cats go from shy to clearly comfortable with him, you could tell they really liked him. Thanks to Brian, we were able to fully relax and enjoy our vacation, knowing the cats were in great hands. He was also incredibly flexible, accommodating changes to dates and times on short notice, even mid-trip, and always responded fast. We’re so glad we found someone who was the right fit for our cats, and we’ll definitely be booking him again for future trips.

I had a last minute request for drop-in kitty feeding - with a complicated entry into the house - Shannan accepted the responsibility and went above expectations, she was exceptionally caring to Bella and had zero issues figuring out how to provide service. I have been a Rover sitter myself for 5 years, I can honestly say now I understand the value of asking for help and receiving peace of mind and the effort a sitter gives to care for pets. I HIGHLY recommend Shannan🌸 she is top notch as a Rover sitter!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Villa Park

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Villa Park is $27 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $44 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 October 2026, there are 12,910 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Villa Park. 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.

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 with handling special pet needs in Villa Park. On Rover:

  • 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.

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.
