About: Pet adventure guide with a talent for river walks, snack negotiations, belly rubs, and earning the trust of even the sassiest cats. I only care for one “pack” at a time, so your pets get my undivided attention and personalized care—whether they’re boarding with me or just stopping by for the day 💜 After a career shift, I found myself with more flexibility in my schedule—and I decided to dedicate that time to doing something I LOVE 🐾 Safety First, Shenanigans Second! I adore every furry friend in my care and give each one the same love and attention I’d want for my own Lucy. I tailor my care to your pup’s unique personality and comfort level—whether they prefer extra cuddles, energetic playtime, or a little space to settle in. My yard is unfenced, so outdoor time is always supervised with a secure ground lead or long line in hand. I also have a room where pups can retreat whenever they need a little space of their own to relax and feel comfortable. I believe in building a trusting connection with every pet and truly value the companionship they bring. I know choosing a sitter can be difficult, so I strive to make the transition easier by helping your pup feel right at home.

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. In my spare time I volunteer with a pitbull rescue but in the past I have volunteered with several shelters. I have an anxious dog so I understand the importance of patience and routines. I also understand the stress that leaving your animals can create, so that’s why I’m here to help you feel less stress and more confident in your animals care while you’re away! I work full time but I get home by 5:10 at the latest and have an hour lunch break. On weekends I only work occasional Saturday’s until noon. I understand the importance of feeling comfortable opening your home to a stranger but prior to booking we can schedule a meet up to ensure you are as comfortable as possible! I am happy to provide check in, feedings, refilling water, bathroom breaks, walks, and of course lots of loving if they are comfortable with that. I’m happy to help in any way!

About: With over 5 years of hands-on dog watching experience, I provide more than supervision I provide stability, attentiveness, and genuine care. Over the years, I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes, breeds, temperaments, and ages. From energetic puppies who need structured activity to senior dogs who thrive on a calm, predictable pace, I understand how important it is to adapt to each dog’s individual needs. What truly sets me apart is the balance I bring between structure and affection. Dogs feel most secure when their routine stays consistent, so I make it a priority to maintain their normal schedule as closely as possible. My daily routine typically includes on-time feedings, fresh water refresh, bathroom breaks, and exercise tailored to your dog’s energy level. Whether that means long walks, active play sessions, enrichment activities, or simply relaxed companionship, I adjust based on what your dog needs that day. Beyond the basics, I focus on mental stimulation and emotional well-being. I reinforce positive behaviors, engage in interactive play, and ensure your dog has both active time and calm downtime. I work overnight shifts during the week, and I dedicate my weekends fully to pet care. This allows me to provide focused, unrushed attention from Friday through Sunday. I intentionally keep my weekend availability open for pet sitting so I can give each pet consistent, quality care without overbooking. Weekend care includes structured routines with feedings, walks, playtime, enrichment, and calm companionship tailored to your pet’s needs. I make sure their schedule stays consistent and stress-free while you’re away. When caring for your pet in your home, my goal is to keep everything as normal and stress-free as possible. Pets are most comfortable in their own environment, so I prioritize maintaining their routine, respecting their space, and creating a calm, consistent presence while you’re away.

“Luz was an excellent care taker for our baby boy! She was very detailed in her updates and sent plenty of pictures! Her knowledge of caring for dogs definitely came in handy since our boy suffers from a bit of anxiety. She was able to asses when he was a little nervous and give his medication when needed. Our corgi can very hyper and insistent, so he needs someone with a calming and centered personality to bring him some peace and that's definitely what Luz brings to her caring service. He enjoyed her undivided attention and walks. We 100% would book again and recommend her to anyone looking for someone to take care of their hyper but sweet dog 🐶 ❤️. Thank you Luz!”

About: ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS! MESSAGE ME! Hello! I’m Lindsay, known as the "Cat Whisperer", serving the South Suburbs and NWI. While many sitters offer general pet care, I specialize in providing a high-level, intuitive experience for cats (and their avian or farm friends!) who require a more sophisticated touch. ​My home is a true sanctuary, shared with five cats, chickens, and a peacock. This lifelong immersion in nature has given me a unique shorthand with animals—especially those who are shy, "spicy," or highly sensitive to their environment. ​Certified Professional & Medical Specialist ​I bring peace of mind to pet parents who need more than just a food-and-water check-in. My background includes: ​Red Cross Certified in Pet First Aid & CPR: I am trained to handle emergencies with a calm, capable head. ​Advanced Medical Care: I am highly proficient in administering medications (pills, liquids, or specialized treatments) and following strict veterinary protocols. ​Life-Stage Expertise: I have extensive experience with kitten development and birthing, as well as providing compassionate, dignified care for senior and end-of-life cats. ​ Professional Network: I maintain active affiliations with multiple local vets and have trusted connections for in-home end-of-life services should you ever need that support. ​ A Calming, Wellness-Focused Approach ​Beyond the clinical side, I am a practitioner of calming energy work. I use gentle, non-invasive techniques to lower stress levels and promote a sense of safety. This "whole-creature" approach is a game-changer for anxious pets who struggle when their owners are away. ​ Whether you are in the South Suburbs or Northwest Indiana, I am here to be your pet's advocate. I don't just "watch" your pets—I look after their physical health and emotional spirit as if they were my own.

About: I’ve been around dogs since I was a child and owned a few so nothing really intimidates me about any dog or cat. But personally, I do love cats more. They’re just much more my personality. At the moment, I honestly do not have that much time but if I do have an open day, it’ll be on the weekends and I can move things around pretty flexibly Building trust with any living thing takes time and willingness to meet bumps in the road. I’m committed to making sure your pet and your space are well respected and taken care of.

About: We’ve had three pets in our home since we were kids and throughout adulthood - two dogs and a cat. I love animals and would love to earn a little extra money by walking, playing, and watching over them! I’m currently looking for work (ex-programmer), so I’m doing Rover and other gig work while searching. So I’m free all the time for your pet needs! I’ll follow any instructions you leave on how you’d like me to care for your fur babies. I can track walks we go on, take photos/video, update you, whatever you need!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Yeager

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 122 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Yeager. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Yeager. On Rover:

  • 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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 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.
