“Absolutely amazing pet sitter! I had to book last minute and extend with an additional visit - she was super accommodating. Sent lots of updates, photos, and actually interacted with my cats. My babies loved her and will definitely re-book in the future. 🐾”

“Lexi is amazing! I was fortunate to find her in a last-minute situation, and she enthusiastically took on three drop-in visits with less than 24 hours’ notice. My timid rescue beagle warmed up to her immediately, she followed very specific instructions perfectly, and I will definitely be using her services again!”
About: I have raised 2 dogs since puppies until older age. I have experience with older dogs and puppies. Love them all. I have no pets at the moment so any pet I care for will receive lots of love. Love all pets I can provide care in the morning and afternoon. I am available for many services. I can walk pets, play with them, feed them, take them out, cuddle them, and give them love. I can also stay in your house or apartment with your pet. I give pets lots of love and attention. I can give pets lots of love, cuddle with them and give them treats, practice commands, or also just give them space and take them out for walks. I love dogs, I also like cats. Any pets are a joy
“Jayme was our first experience with Rover and we had such a wonderful first experience! From our first meet and greet with our pup you could instantly tell she cares about the quality of care she provides to your animals. With each check in I was confident our dog was in great hands, our dog can take some time to warm up to someone new and she was instantly able to win him over. We can’t wait to have her back soon!”
“Kristin went above and beyond taking care of my cats medications while I was traveling. My parents were there as well but cannot manage the medications. They enjoyed Kristin’s company very much and couldn’t say enough nice things about her. She even contacted my vet with questions, which I really appreciated. Kristin stopped over to meet and discuss details before the trip which gave me a lot of peace of mind. She has a great way about her. I highly recommend Kristin.”
“3rd and final week of caring for Khloe. Couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter. Jessica followed instructions and communication was excellent. I highly recommend Jessica to care for your fur baby.”
“Olivia did a great job checking in on my kitty Ruby while we were gone. Very grateful for her flexibility & ability to manage Ruby’s difficult behavior in the wake of our absence. Thank you so much!!”
“Rebecca is an amazing sitter! She is attentive and thoughtful with my cat. I really appreciate the descriptions she leaves me after her visits. I never have any questions because she is so thorough!”
“Brittney did such a wonderful job with my two cats. She was responsive, friendly, professional and the kitties enjoyed having her visit them while I was out of town. I would not hesitate to book with her again and truly appreciate her time and care.”
“We booked with Estefanía for her to visit our dog three times a day during our week-long trip. She was always super professional- quick responses when I texted her any last-minute requests or instructions. She also brought in our trash bins and kept our plants alive:) Bruno was happy when we got home, but definitely no stress when we were away!”
“Sam was so amazing with our dogs. We tried her for the first time on Rover and we will definitely use her again. She is knowledgeable, is prompt, on time and communicates very well. Sam took great care of our dogs and we are so happy we found her.”
“John was wonderful with our energetic boxer puppy! I highly recommend him. When we came home, she greeted us with excitement and love as usual. Then she ran around our house looking for her new friend, John!”
“After having to have an emergency scheduling Stephanie was absolutely fantastic, she was quick to reply, communicative, respectful and very kind. She gave us constant updates on our cat Freyja along with photos. We would happily use her services again.”
About: I have over 4 years of experience in dog walking and overnight dog sitting, and grew up taking care of our family dog. Moreover, I am experienced in senior care, in dogs with special needs (deafness, autoimmune disease, etc), and high energy dogs! I have a very flexible schedule with availability during typical work hours, weekends and holidays. I am more than happy to help out in early mornings! When pet sitting, I closely adhere to your pet’s routine to keep them happy and healthy. I am always mindful when walking to stay away from busy roads and prioritize pet safety.
“Angelina did a fantastic job looking after out ancient and fragile whippet. She looked after his special needs perfectly. When our schedule changed unexpectedly she accommodated the changes easily. I will definitely have Angelina look after him again when I need someone.”

It was my first time using Rover and it definitely will not be the last. My pet sitter Jayme was absolutely amazing. She was incredibly organized, punctual, and showed such care and love to Sterling and Silver. Jayme always had a thoughtful recap message, took great pictures, and made my cats feel special and comfortable despite my absence. I am a big fan of Rover because of JAYME! Scott Young

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Western Springs on Rover is $24.42 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 13,234 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Western Springs. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Western Springs 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.
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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Western Springs. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 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.
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.
