About: Animal and Pet Experience: I currently volunteer weekly at a cat shelter where I interact with and take care of a wide range of cats. I absolutely adore working there and have always been an animal lover! I've owned and taken care of a variety of pets throughout my life, including cats, dogs, gerbils, and at one point in my adolescence, a toad. I love and am capable of taking care of a wide range of animals. All of the cats I grew up with had feline leukemia, leading them to require extra care and medication. I am known for being very gentle and patient, and will give your beloved pet lots of attention, care, and cuddles. :) Flexibility/Location/Hours: I am very flexible in terms of pricing, hours, location, and last-minute bookings or cancellations. I know how chaotic life can be and how valuable flexibility is, especially when it comes to the care of our pets. I am willing to negotiate, make adjustments as needed, and will prioritize the best and most stress-free experience for you and your pets. General Qualities: I am a very fast learner, rule-follower, and problem-solver, and will not hesitate to communicate or ask questions if I have them. I want nothing but the best possible experience for you, the owner, and your beloved pets, as I know how much value they bring to a household. I am always happy and quick to communicate if you have any questions or concerns. I promise your furry friend is in good hands! I am currently in the market for an animal-related job, and I am waiting to hear back from several dog kennels and pet stores. In the meantime, Rover is my priority for income and further animal experience. On Monday nights, from 6-8 pm, I typically have a prior commitment, but it can easily be adjusted or joined virtually. For now, animal care and pet-sitting are my number one priority. I do not offer pet sitting at my home, but I am very flexible in terms of location and hours to do what is best for your pet at your own home. I can provide additional treats and toys if allowed or preferred, and will prioritize the safety and care of your pet. I will follow the rules and schedule that are provided and will update you with any questions, concerns, or updates. My main priority is providing safe, stress-free, reliable care that is personalized for your household and pet to your standards and expectations.

About: I'm a stay at home mom who would love to give your pet a fun, safe place to be while you're away! I've taken care of dogs and cats since I was 10, everything from high energy herding dogs to disabled senior cats to newborn puppies. Since I'm able to be around all day, I can give your pet the full attention and care I know I want for my own when I'm away as well. If they stay with us, we have a nice fenced in backyard and our own very friendly dog they can play with as well. I also have a 1 year old with me at all times, which may be important to know. If your pet stays with us I will keep a very watchful eye/keep them separate if there's any doubt about your pet's comfortability with children around. On our end we've taught our child pet safety from day 1 with our own dog, so we have never had a problem. For walks and drop-in visits, he will be in a carrier on my back. So excited to meet you and your pet! I'm a stay at home mom so I am very flexible with my daily routine and am able to give lots of time to your loved one! I have a nice fenced in yard and a very friendly medium-energy dog that yours can play with if they'd like. I'm very used to following specific feeding instructions, giving medication, etc.,.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Woodridge. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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.
Every walker 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 .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Woodridge. On Rover:
- 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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 walker.
