“Being super new to Rover, I was so ecstatic to see the summary after Juliana’s visit. Juliana has been super awesome with me because even though I say Quigley has anxiety, I think I have more than him when I leave him. I, like most people went from office to home so being that I’m 24/7 with him I feel guilty leaving him.”
“Stephanie is absolutely wonderful!! She took such great care of our cat while we were gone for 10 days and was so good about updating us and letting us know how he was doing. She made us feel completely at ease with the whole process and with knowing that our kitty was being so well taken care of. We will certainly be using her again and cannot say enough terrific things about her!”
“Jo’Ell is amazing with our puppy! First and foremost, she is always on time and always communicates with us about our puppy. She provides several photos and engages with our puppy. The best is that she brings over different toys and puzzles to help our puppy learn and stimulate their brain. I could not ask for a better person to help us with our dog. Thank you so much.”
About: I've been surrounded by animals my entire life! From dogs and cats to guinea pigs, ducks, geese, and even fish, I've had the joy of caring for pets of all shapes, sizes, and personalities! I'm also the designated house and pet sitter in my family, so looking after furry friends has always come naturally to me. One thing I've always taken pride in is being someone animals feel safe, comfortable, and loved around. I've genuinely never met an animal I couldn't make friends with!

I live in a cozy, pet-free one-bedroom apartment with access to a fenced-in dog park, a beautiful creekside walking path, and peaceful neighborhoods perfect for long walks! With no pets of my own, your fur baby can enjoy my undivided attention in a calm, comfortable environment. I'd love nothing more than to have them cuddle up with me on the couch! Whether in my home or yours, I'll make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and cared for just like family.

About: Hello! My name is Alana and I have worked with animals for over a decade, beginning in high school. I worked for a veterinary clinic for 10 years until I moved into a different field. Even then, I still missed working with animals and enjoyed it so much that I ran my own animal rescue for 6 years. On top of a full time job, I work part time taking care of other people’s pets because I love it so much! I currently have two dogs in my home,Estelle, a Boston terrier mix, and Roxanne (Roxy) a lab/poodle mix. I also have a Maine Coon cat named Lenny who loves my dogs. I have worked with every dog breed out there, from tiny to large and special needs animals. I also consider myself a cat whisperer and reptile enthusiast. Please feel free to ask me any questions! I work full time from home, 7:30 - 4:00pm Monday through Friday. My dogs get potty breaks during that time and plenty (sometimes too much!) attention. I treat your pets as if they are part of my family. If I am not home and have to run out, the pet will be separated or crated from my own animals. I follow any instructions you give me to a T. I tend to ask a lot of questions to make sure I know everything about your pet.

I will make it clear I do not do off leash walking for safety of your dog other dogs and myself. :)
“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👋”

This is my second time booking with Stephanie and it was another great experience. My cat, Jumanji, is scared of everyone and has some unsafe habits if not properly supervised. Stephanie was awesome with taking care of him at his comfort level. The next time I go out of town, I know I can trust Stephanie 👍
Sierra took great care of my 2 cats. She took plenty of pictures and kept me informed of their well being. Scribble enjoys interactions with humans and I could see he really appreciated her twice a day visits, following her everywhere and rubbing his cheeks on her. Sierra was always on schedule and the whole experience with her from meet and greet to her last visit was drama free. I'll certainly try to book her again next time I need to leave home without my precious babies! Thanks a lot Sierra.
Jo’Ell is amazing with our puppy! First and foremost, she is always on time and always communicates with us about our puppy. She provides several photos and engages with our puppy. The best is that she brings over different toys and puzzles to help our puppy learn and stimulate their brain. I could not ask for a better person to help us with our dog. Thank you so much.
My scheduled dog sitter canceled on me pretty last minute and Kaitlyn really was a life saver. She showed up on time and was so sweet to Caesar from the get go. Incredibly professional and incredibly communicative without being overkill. Sent me plenty of pictures of my boy and I could tell she gave him all the attention he deserves. 10/10 would recommend and would book again
Audrey is the best Rover sitter we’ve had the pleasure of working with! She took the time to get to know our cats’ different personalities and often stayed longer than the amount of time we booked for. She provided extremely detailed updates with photos and videos of our cats while we were away, which we greatly appreciated. Thank you again, Audrey! We highly recommend her for your Rover needs.
Meredith was fantastic! My cat can be very shy, but from all the pictures she took, it’s clear Meredith was able to quickly get her out of her shell and enjoying herself during her visits. Meredith was very reliable and adaptable as well, helping me deal with a prolonged power outage due to heavy storms. I can’t recommend her enough!
I have used Cristl exclusively to care for my cats while I’ve traveled, and she has provided them excellent care each time! Each cat eats different food, and one cat is medicated, so there are a lot of directions for her to follow! She never missed a beat. She communicates well after each visit and spends sufficient time to ensure my kitties have had some company while we are away. I highly recommend Cristl!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Woodridge is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $12 and $36 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 12,646 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Woodridge. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Woodridge. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
