“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.”
About: I have a passion for dogs and I have grown up all around dogs, I’ve experienced walking dogs in my neighborhood just for fun and i’m extremely reliable and trustworthy, some of my experience is babysitting younger siblings and cousins and other family members pets. I am available every day and can help with whatever your pet needs. I’m able to walk and feed, I’ve always loved dogs and will always make time to give them attention and care :) I have a 9-year-old Westie terrier who has been a huge part of my life since I was little. Caring for him is part of my daily routine, I feed him, walk him, and make sure he gets plenty of attention. He’s my best friend, and my experience with taking care of animals has made me love dogs, I like to go to the dog shelter and volunteer to give attention to dogs that need it as well.
About: As a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet caregiver, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I understand that every dog has a unique personality, so I tailor walks, playtime, and care to meet their individual needs. Whether your pet loves adventures, belly rubs, or a quiet companion, I provide dependable, attentive care that helps them feel safe and happy while you're away. My goal is to give you peace of mind and your pet a fun, loving experience filled with plenty of attention and affection.

During the school year, I am available after school, evenings, weekends, holidays, and school breaks. In the summer, I have a very flexible schedule with plenty of availability for walks, drop-in visits, daycare, and overnight care. This flexibility allows me to provide pets with the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I provide a calm, loving, and secure environment where pets can feel relaxed and at home while you're away. With years of experience caring for animals, you can trust that your furry family member will receive attentive care, plenty of affection, and close supervision.
“I chose Lynn for drop in visits the first time I used Rover, she is fantastic! Very prompt in getting back to you and keep you posted. My cat, Taz, met her the first time and immediately liked her, she took such great care of him on my first trip away from Taz, and put me at ease while I was away. I will be a repeat client!”
“Erin always provides exceptional care for our 6-year-old greyhound, Happy. Erin showers Happy with affection and makes sure she has fresh water, a treat, and clean feet. During this muddy weekend, I really appreciated that. Erin was kind enough to alter her visit time when my schedule changed at the last minute. Because Erin is kind, professional, and flexible, I can confidently recommend her services. Erin is always our first choice for care.”
“Sam is so incredibly patient and so kind, gentle with my dog, Loki💜 he’s going through a lot of changes neurologically and she meets him where he is on that day. Every time she has met with him, he is building rapport with her. Given his difficulties, sometimes he will have accidents in the house and Sam is quick to let me know and use the carpet cleaner, which I truly appreciate. She was also able to come over today with short notice due to a schedule change for work, which helped me feel better about not being home sooner. Highly recommend Sam and will definitely reach out to her again!”
“Christopher was wonderful and reliable with our kitty. Our cat takes awhile to warm up to others and his patience was rewarded with her trust. It was great to know she was in good hands while we were away.”

“Angela did a wonderful job watching our dog. She came 3 times a day for walks and feeding. We could tell that Leine was well taken care of. Definitely will use Angela and River again.”
“Megan is the best! She has watched our two dogs, two cats and leopard gecko multiple times. She is super reliable, very communicative, and just a delight with the animals. My only hesitation in writing this review is that she will book up and won’t be available for our numerous last minute requests!”
“Carlen was great! She helped ease our minds by doing meet and greets prior to the booking and was very flexible when we needed to modify plans the day before. Happy our girls were in good hands with her!”
“Sarah was a great cat sitter while I was gone! She spent time making sure my cat felt comfortable and entertained, and always made me feel very confident in the care my cat was receiving. Sarah was on time, and very communicative throughout the two weeks. I very much appreciate the work she did to take care of my little love!”
“Rebecca did a great job watching our cats while we were on vacation. She was very thorough when she came over to meet them ahead of time and asked great questions. She sent us plenty of pictures and cute descriptions of her visits. Our 2 cats were clearly at east with her, and managed giving one of them pills as well (honestly, better than we were!). Thanks, Rebecca!”

Stephanie was the best! She treated our dogs like her own and played with them so much each time she came. We had never used Rover before and we are so glad that we picked Stephanie to watch them. We are so thankful to her for giving us peace of mind while we were gone and for keeping our dogs happy everyday! Highly recommend her to watch yours!
Audrey is the best. If you’re reading this in hopes of finding your new dog sitter - look no further. She is communicative, detail oriented, thoughtful, and caring. She has been our weekly dog walker for months and we have always felt very comfortable with our spoiled little girls being in her care! We had never opened our home to a stranger before to help care for our girls, and we are so thankful that Audrey was able to introduce us to Rover with such an amazing first experience. I cannot go on enough about how great she is!

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 Woodridge 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 Woodridge 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 Woodridge with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.

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.
