“I was very happy with how things went. Loved that they were around other dogs and could roam the home freely and openly. My 2 dogs are also attached to each other and were able to be with each other throughout. They received their needed meds on time....one being insulin injection 2xs daily...and overall did well as I got video updates on their progress throughout the wk. I will definitely use Jessica and her husband again!”
“Keith took excellent care of Sarah over the weekend while we were away. He was also very flexible with last-minute schedule changes and adjusted the timing without any issues. I would definitely recommend him for dog sitting.”
“5 Stars! This is the second time Kathleen has come through for us on a very last second basis with no problem whatsoever!! She was more than happy to watch our elderly lab both times. She is extremely reliable, flexible, loving and affordable! Her and her family take such great care of your fur babies while you're away. She is so quick to respond and sends pictures and updates daily. I can't say enough good things about Kathleen and the wonderful work that she does taking care of dogs in her home so families can have peace of mind while they are away. We've found our forever sitter :> :)”
“La Toya is wonderful! She has taken care of my pup twice already and we have her booked for a third stay as well. We love that she has dogs already which helped set our pup at ease and provided good play for him. He comes home happy, tired, and well fed. La Toya is professional and kind in handling your pets needs and we certainly recommend her!”
“Leslie did a great job with my Marley. Marley is a very anxious dog and he had a blast with Leslie. I will leave for my work trip in a couple weeks knowing that he is in good hands and being well cared for! 🤍”
“I recently had the pleasure of using Katie as my dog sitter, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! From start to finish, Katie showed a genuine love and care for my furry friend, making me feel completely at ease leaving my dog in their hands. Communication was excellent throughout the entire process. Katie was quick to respond to any questions or concerns I had, and even provided regular updates and photos of my dog during their stay. It was evident that my dog was in good hands, and that gave me peace of mind while I was away. Not only did Katie provide exceptional care, but they also went above and beyond to ensure my dog felt comfortable and happy. They followed my dog's routine perfectly, maintained consistent feeding schedules, and provided plenty of exercise and playtime. My dog was well-taken care of, and it was clear they had a great time with Katie. I highly recommend Katie's services to anyone in need of a reliable and caring dog sitter. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine love for animals make them stand out from the rest. I will definitely be using their services again in the future! Thank you, Katie, for providing such a wonderful dog sitting experience. You exceeded my expectations, and my dog couldn't be happier.”
“Vanessa and her little boy gave Imli sooo much love during her stay with them! Imli is a nervous pup, but with the daily updates and pics it was so evident that Imli was confident, safe, and very happy under Vanessa's care!”
“Erin took such great care of our Sadie! I could tell from all the pictures that Sadie felt comfortable and happy. Knowing Sadie was well cared for, made our time away more enjoyable.”
“I want to start by saying I’m no stranger to dog sitters. I’ve been in need for someone to watch my dog many of times and in the past, my sitters have all been pretty good. However, when it comes to Pallvi, I have to say she was absolutely exceptional!! Plenty of checkins thought the sitting, very understanding on pick up and drop off timing, and super competitive pricing! Easily one of the best sitters I’ve gone with this far and I’ll admit I don’t plan on using any other sitter besides her in the future. If I could give more than 5 stars I would!!!! 10/10!!! 😊❤️💯”
“As usual a great service! they helps us a lot. This time we use their boarding service because my wife was going to give birth. They were as always extremely kind and understanding with Lucas and Max's delivery and pick up times.”
“We have used Beatrice services for watching our 10 year old Pit Mix multiple times now. Mj loves going over to her house, I know she will be safe and loved and Beatrice is quick to respond and always is sending updates and pictures. She also was willing to add the service of bringing MJ home for us which was a huge help. We will continue to use Beatrice in the future!! Highly recommend!”
“Balbina did great with Tallulah! Tallulah has alot of anxiety but she did great and Balbina gave her all of the 1:1 attention. I lo ed getting the updates/ pics of Tallulah!”
“My pup seemed to be having a lot of fun in the updates provided very often. Selena was very accommodating and I felt safe leaving my dog with her because I know she’d care for her like her own.”
“Robynn is absolutely the best dog sitter we have ever had. Very responsive, sends lots of updates, and my pup who is a highly active cattle dog mix looked as comfortable with her as she is at home! Our dog can be very anxious away from us but we could tell from all of the pictures and videos that she was enjoying herself so much. We enjoyed our trip so much more knowing that she was enjoying her time with Robynn too :)”
“Melvin enjoyed his time with Marisol. She kept me up to date with texts and photos. She also purchased optional food when Melvin wasn’t eating his regular food which had never happened before. I’ll use her services again in the future.”

As of September 2026, there are 2,234 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Aurora. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
93% of Aurora sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Aurora landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Aurora home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Aurora.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Aurora sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 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.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
