“Collette kept us informed on the well-being of our cats for our whole trip, which made it so much easier to enjoy ourselves. She was able to coax our shy and introverted kitty out of hiding while we were gone, and took very good care of both.”
About: I have an excellent understanding of dogs individual needs and great communication with owners. I take the time to learn about each dogs specific needs.

I’m very trustworthy and responsible with other peoples animals and belongings. I will be able to go to your place and let your dog out and play with them or take them on walks. Whatever you need from me I’m the person you can rely on.
“Rachel was wonderful- she went over to my office last minute (hours before) without meeting my pup previously and you can tell he had the BEST time!! They sent videos, cute pictures, and were running around with him. Could not ask for more. Would 100000% recommend and will be reaching out in the future. Thank you!!”
“Sara is the best! She is honest and reliable and is so patient and attentive with my pets. She always follows instructions perfectly and is an excellent communicator! I highly recommend!”
“Adriana was amazing and made us feel so comfortable while we were away. This was our first time having someone watch Caius and she kept us notified and sent photos the entire time. He is definitely more of a reactive dog and gets pretty territorial of our home, but he felt so comfortable with Adriana. She also watched him over the holidays which was much appreciated. We will absolutely be having her watch him again in the future. Thank you so much! ❤️”

“Thank you for taking great care of Mac! I really appreciated the detailed pictures and notes that you left, I could tell that he was happy and relaxed from his walk when I got home from work. Amazing service!”
About: **For the house sitting part of the profile I cannot sleepover at the clients house due to health reasons but I can take the dog(s) out for breaks at anytime.** We have a rescue dog, who was untrained and very high anxiety when we rescued him. Now, he is a fun loving, good listening boy! I probably baby him too much, so if you are looking for someone to be uber strict, that's probably not us. We just want to give love when you're not able to. I am in school part time and I am only looking to take care of a few dogs, so I can work the schedules that they need. I have two dogs that I feed, bathe and train. I like to play with them and I can tell when she's about to get the "zoomies'" , so I play extra hard with her then. Of course I like to snuggle and pet any puppy!

Jennifer is such a kind soul! She goes above and beyond for your pup and will do everything she can to make sure they are comfortable. My pup is pretty scared of storms and Jennifer carried him down to the basement to make him feel comfortable in his safe space. She’d also let me know of any behavioral concerns like increased anxiety or if my pup was having an off day. I can’t say enough good things about Jennifer. 🙂 I would 110% recommend her to folks looking for peace of mind that your pet will be well cared for and in good hands. Thank you for everything that you do Jennifer!!
Macey was amazing! She took very good care of my new puppy goose and followed all instructions! She send great overviews and photos of their time together that made me feel comfortable leaving him with her. Before the drop ins even took place, Macey made sure to make time to meet goose and us which I greatly appreciated!
Klaudia is wonderful! She went above and beyond on her drop-in visit with our pup, bringing in packages from the front door and bringing in our trash bins without even being asked! We can't wait to have her staying with our girl next time we travel. Have a wonderful holiday and happy new year, Klaudia!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Villa Park 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 Villa 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!
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 .
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.
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 Villa Park with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

- 96% 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.
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.
