About: My husband I both grew up with golden retrievers and have a soft spot for them. When I was first out on my own and bought my first home, I rescued a pit bull and she was with me until she passed. My husband, sons and I are all dog lovers and would love to welcome your dog into our home. My husband is home full time and I work from home and we are anxious to care for your pet! We have 2 sons - ages 6 and 10, so kid-friendly dogs are a must. We are available any day of the week at any time, unless we have something specific planned (which is not often). Please feel free to ask about specific dates and times and I will be sure to add you to my calendar! My husband is home full time and I work from home so we have ample amounts of time to care for your pet. My 2 sons LOVE dogs and love to play and take dogs on walks. Our yard is unfenced, per our HOA rules so your pet will always be on a leash for potty breaks and walks around the neighborhood. Pets are free to explore the entire home and will not be crated or gated, unless a crate is provided and requested.
“JoAnne is amazing! She is so good with our dogs and they clearly have a great time there. She sent pictures every day and it really helped seeing how happy our dogs were. She was completely understanding when our flight got cancelled which made the whole ordeal a little better knowing our fur babies were in great hands. We will absolutely use JoAnne again.”
“If you want your pet to feel like they are home - this is it. Can't say enaugh good things about Melissa. Not only she rescued me with last moment stay but gave my dog most amazing care!”
“Jordan is wonderful! She is so nice to work and I will definitely use her again. Our Luna was super excited to see her after staying with her once before - which is really a comfort when leaving her. Knowing we'll use her again says it all!”
“Sunshine was amazing with Xena! She kept us updated with pictures and how she was doing daily. Xena had a great experience and so did we! We will definitely have Sunshine care for Xena again!”
““Our dog’s spring break vacation” The overall care & true love she shows to her furry friends is like no other. Our senior dog got such a boost of energy & felt like a young pup frolicking in the forest preserve & swimming multiple times within the week in Lake Michigan. She has the sweetest dogs and cats & looking at pictures of them all snuggled up in her bed at night made us so happy. She has the coolest backyard for the pets too. We’ll book with no one else.”
“Anna was super kind and accommodating. She did take pictures (which I so appreciate) including on walks. My dog was a bit high energy and Anna managed well - I know because he came back tired. Also, super helpful when we had to cut the trip short. TY Anna!”
“Knowing I had to be out of town in August for one week, I began searching for a reliable and qualified dog sitter for my 5-year-old pug early in the summer. Not just any sitter would do! I reached out to friends who enthusiastically recommended Dee and rover.com. Dee had cared for my friend's large dog many times and our friends were very pleased. During the initial meet & greet, I could easily see that Dee was a dog lover and someone who took her role as a dog sitter very seriously. She wanted to know about our pug's routines, personality, and special needs. I liked that Dee cared for just one dog at a time and had a fenced in yard. Dee was very personable and showed a genuine interest in my concerns. I felt comfortable at Dee's place and so did my pug. Without hesitation, I booked a week with Dee through rover.com. My pug, Penny, was well cared during her week at Dee's place. When I dropped her off, Dee took the time to go over the notes I had written and specific instructions pertaining to Penny's care. I really appreciated the daily updates: text messages, photos, and videos. Rover.com made it easy to communicate with Dee and the app is user friendly. The daily communications reassured me that my pug was doing well! Whenever I had questions, Dee answered in a timely manner. Dee is a sitter who will love and care for your dog like he/she was her own pet and I would definitely book with her again! Dee, thank you so much for taking such good care of Penny, even with her anxiety, quirks, and unique pug behaviors. Thank you for taking the time and effort to communicate with us on a daily basis. We appreciate everything you did!”
“Repeat customer. Diane takes great care of our Princess and we are very happy with her dog sitter services. We can travel with peace of mind knowing our dog is being well cared for by Diane.”
“Ryann is absolutely AMAZING! She was extremely reliable, attentive, and patient with my in-training pup and my delayed flight. She took Enzo to the dog park, sent me pictures/videos daily (which I loved), and had other pets for him to play with. Could not have asked for a better dog sitter! Everything about this past weekend was perfect and went super smooth all thanks to her. She’s at the top of my list now!”
“Meagen and her family are awesome!!! The really put my mind at ease. Meagen was very attentive to the needs of Olaf and myself. Pictures and daily updates were definitively appreciated. Will be using her again for short and long stays. BTW, Bastian is wonderful as well.”
“Rachel was absolutely wonderful with Dottie. Being new to the area and having to travel for business, I was very nervous finding a new sitter as Dottie has some extra needs in her older age. I appreciate Rachel’s updates and willingness to help in a time of need. Thanks again, Rachel!”
“Julie and Tom did an amazing job watching my senior pup. I was in a pinch and needed someone to help last minute. My dog is almost 16 and needs a lot of assistance including being carried around (he’s a lab/Weimaraner mix). I was worried about leaving him but they sent me tons of updates, pictures, and videos. My pup was actually so comfortable there he almost didn’t want to leave when I came to pick him up. Thank you so much for what you do! You are appreciated!”
“Dickson was absolutely wonderful with Charlie! He sent frequent videos and photo updates, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. Charlie is 12 years old and diabetic, she stayed on her eating schedule and received her insulin shots on time — Dickson handled everything perfectly and with such care. I felt completely comfortable knowing she was safe, happy, and enjoying time playing in his fenced backyard. You can truly tell he loves animals and treats them like family. This was such a great experience, and I will absolutely have Charlie stay with him any time. Highly recommend Dickson to any friends or family looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!!”
“Thank you to Karen we at a stress free vacation knowing our senior dog was being well taken care of. Karen was great with updates and sending daily pics, which made my daughters day to see her pup happy and having fun!!”
“She was great! We got daily updates with photos and videos of our dog playing and running outside. She was very nice and kept in contact which we appreciated. Our dog, Mona, seemed satisfied too :)”
“Jacob made this whole experience so easy, made us feel safe leaving our pet behind while on vacation, and we are confident that our Odie had such a good time! He is passionate about his clients and communicated with us the entire time. I would highly recommend leaving your precious pooch with him and feel great that they are being cared for and kept safe. Thank you Jacob for everything!”
“Christy communicated really well. I had a family emergency at the end of Kali's stay and needed to extend her stay. Christy accommodated and wished us well. She even let me pick up Kali for a "sleep over one night since I was going through Kali withdrawal. It meant she had to get up an hour early the next day so I could drop her off again on my way back to the hospital. AMAZING team her and her daughters.”
“Thank you Elaina and Joseph for allowing me to book with a short notice and for being very flexible with dropoff and pickup times. Communication was excellent, constant updates and pictures, and great care. You'll definitely be my sitter of choice when I'm in the area. Thank you!!”
“Sabrina was great! she took amazing care of my Grim and was easy to communicate with! She sent updates throughout the stay along with pictures, would definitely recommend and book again!!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Antioch on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Boarding 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 1,188 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Antioch. About 92% of Antioch sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
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 pet, 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.
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in IL ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
