“Juliana took such great care of our 4 cats while we were on vacation! She readily adjusted the timing of the visits to space out feedings when needed. We got great updates and loads of pics, which really helped ease our minds while we were gone. Lots of playtime and snuggling, which the furballs loved! Everything was clean as a whistle, too. When we walked back in the house, I honestly couldn't tell if the kiddos were happy to see us or sad that we weren't Juliana. They love her, and you will too!”
“Julie is so great to work with. We had a complex case with a pup having a recent broken leg, and everything went well. We immediately felt confident and comfortable having Julie in our home while we were away!”
“Amanda was the very best! This was our first time needing to provide care for our fur babies that were outside our family and friends circle. Amanda took extra care of our senior chihuahua to ensure she would eat her meals. We found the perfect pet sitter for future needs. Would highly recommend!”
“Caraline was absolutely outstanding. She was reliable, professional, communicative, and took excellent care of Luna while I was away. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me great peace of mind. It was clear that she genuinely cared about Luna and treated her as if she were her own pet. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and caring, I highly recommend Caraline. Luna and I would gladly book with her again in the future. Thank you for everything! 🐾😊”
“Heather was absolutely wonderful with my 8 month old, very excitable/nervous pup. She showed a lot of general behavior knowledge in working with him to help overcome his fear of people. He's got a ways to go, but her help in providing a good experience was greatly appreciated. Thank you!”
“Amy was so awesome! She was very attentive and on time every time. She went above and beyond to take care of my babies (3 dogs and 2 cats) while we were away. I never had to worry about them because she I knew she was on top of it! Would 100% use her again!”
“Jessica was wonderful! Super great with communication, very sweet, and took really great care of our kitties and especially at late notice! We’re really glad to work with her and will be using her again soon! Thank you Jessica!! 🩷”
“This was our second time using Sarah and she did so great with our dog again! She provided detailed updates and the best pictures each time. Thank you so much for taking such great care of our spoiled boy!”
About: I have worked for two zoos, 2 emergency clinics and hospitals that focused on cat, dog and exotics from rabbits, guinea pigs, snakes, geckos, tarantulas, ferrets, beardies, chinchillas, fennecs, prairie dogs, birds, axolotls, ect. I have training in senior cat and dog care and animal behavior training as well as vaccine and injection experience. I graduated from Joliet Junior College as a Veterinary Technician and I have petsat many dogs, cats, herps and small mammals. I'm strict with lists and rules and I love playing and giving treats. All animals are my friends including your tarantula! I love working with animals and I love working with pet parents. I have a large reference sheet with people who swear by me and know that their furry (or scalie) family member is in caring, professional, loving hands. If you're looking for a trusted, well rounded, experienced vet tech, then I'm your sitter!! If you don't like leaving your baby home alone, ask me about boarding!! I board ***most*** exotics and cats! (I don't board dogs, birds, aquatics, or larger exotics, please ask me for details) I will talk to you first to make sure my schedule fits into your animals' needs. If my schedule does not match your pets' needs, then I will kindly decline your offer as your pets' needs come before me. I want to see you matched with the best sitter you can find. I will sit for your furry (or scalie) baby at your own home, so your rules are law! If your doggy needs to be crated, I will do that! If your kitty needs insulin shots, I have experience in that! Does your baby need 500 mLs of fluid? You're in the right hands! Does your flowers need to be watered? Tell me what a hydrangea looks like and I will water it!!
“Dawanna saved the day! When our original person to watch our dog canceled, she responded promptly to my message. She kept me informed and made my day away, so much easier knowing my dog was taken care of.”
“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!”
“Charlotte was a wonderful sitter and made me feel so comfortable throughout my trip away from my babies (w cats)! Will be booking again the next time I’m away.”
The median cost per visit for cat sitting in Woodridge is $21

We had a great experience with Audrey. She was reliable, communicative, and took excellent care of our cats while we were away. We came home to happy, well-cared-for kitties and appreciated the updates throughout our trip. We would gladly book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy pet sitter.
We recently moved to Northern Illinois from downstate and were nervous about leaving our older cat overnight. As soon as we met Nicole, those fears vanished. Nicole clearly has a natural gift in working with animals. Our female cat trusted her immediately. Nicole communicated with us appropriately, followed our instructions, and made a new friend in Grace. We had a wonderful weekend away. Thank you, Nicole!
This was the first time I ever used pet sitter and this platform, so glad it worked out very well! Meredith is an amazing lady who took care of my cats for one week. We didn’t even have to meet before our vacation. She reported pictures every time she visited my house. Also, not just the cats, she was offering to check the mailbox, to water my plants etc. That was so nice of her. I appreciate everything she did and I recommend her service very high! Thank you girl for taking care of my lovely cats👋

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Woodridge on Rover is $23.54 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 Cat 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Woodridge. 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.
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.
