“Bryan was fantastic taking care of Simba for a couple of days. He was fast to respond and gave us much confidence about Simba’s stay right from the start. The meet and greet at his place was a success ! Simba loved the yard so much !! Bryan and his family took care of Simba so well, handled communications and updates regularly and also making Simba be as comfortable as possible. Bryan also gave us a sweet gift when we picked Simba up ! Thank you Bryan for taking care of our Simba like your own❤️ I highly recommend Bryan to anyone who is wanting care for their pet.”
“Kent was absolutely wonderful with my dog, Chloe. Chloe is a difficult case because she can’t be alone because of her separation anxiety she can’t be with other dogs because of her reactivity. This makes her somewhat high maintenance. Kent was able to handle and he loved taking care of her! I’ll be back to ask Kent again to take of Chloe for the upcoming holidays. Kent is very communicative and and just an overall sweet, wonderful, caring and competent person.”

“First time using the Rover service and Eileen made the experience easy and care free. She welcomed our dog Buster into her home like she would her own dogs, and helped make his time away from his people to be a pleasant experience for him. Eileen was great about daily check in's and communication. We definitely will keep Eileen in mind for future boarding needs. Thanks Eileen for taking such good care of Buster!”

She sends many pics and videos and my dog loves her. I won’t sorry next time I leave town because I know my dog will be with Yaqi.”
“I highly recommend Olga. She truly loves our dog. She gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She made sure our dog got plenty of exercise with daily walks and even took him to the park to play and explore. She even insisted to home our dog for another night for free so we can have good rest coming from our vacation. She genuinely cares and we could tell our dog was happy and well taken care of. We’re so grateful and would absolutely trust her again in the future.”

Our pup had the best stay with Maggie! She sent pictures throughout the visit and when we picked him up he was happy and had clearly gotten a ton of love. Bonus - he was also tired from all the playing, so that was a big plus for us. Would definitely recommend Maggie.
This was our third time booking with Paola, and once again she was amazing! She’s incredibly accommodating, has great communication, and sent lots of photos and videos throughout Leia’s stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. Leia absolutely loves Paola and her cat, Khalil, and it’s clear she feels right at home. Paola also keeps a very clean and tidy home. We couldn’t recommend her more and will be booking with her again. Thank you Paola and Khalil!
We had an amazing experience with Leigh & Richard watching our dog Ivy for over a week! Ivy is a 7-yr old rescue and can be very skittish at times and hesitant with new people and locations. Leigh took the time to watch her a few times before our trip to get comfortable with her and Ivy did great! We were sent pictures daily of Ivy while on our trip, which made it so much better as we could be stress-free over our dog. Their fenced in yard also worked out perfectly to give Ivy plenty of time outside. Thanks again! We hope to continue this relationship!
Our 7 year old lab with cancer was well taken care of for 4 days by the husband and wife duo. Me and family were able to relax and enjoy our vacation since we knew Sago was in safe caring hands. Prithvi was also kind enough to send pictures of Sago every day which eased our mind even more. Sago had a fun time with their dog Loki. We highly recommend.
Emily was awesome! She took special care of my cat. When she sent me videos, it warmed my heart to see him out and about and purring. He was even a little reticent to come home (I have a big, goofy, cat-chasing dog). She gave me such peace of mind for the nine days he was with her. I can’t thank her enough and recommend her highly.
D’Artagnan did an amazing job with Groot! Our dog tends to get anxious when we're away and was unable to keep his food down the first day. D’Artagnan handled it perfectly - he kept us informed with regular updates and photos, and even provided probiotics to help settle his stomach. We felt so relieved knowing Groot was in such capable and caring hands. We highly recommend D’Artagnan for anyone looking for a thoughtful and attentive sitter!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Arlington Heights on Rover is $46.62 per night (as of July 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 5,563 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Arlington Heights. About 91% of Arlington Heights 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.
