“We are blessed to find an amazing trustworthy sitter for our fur baby. June is always our first preference to sit Murphy. We’re going to June pretty regularly for sitting and boarding. She’s amazing! Clear communication, understanding, polite, follows instructions, has clean environment and takes care of Murphy like her own pet!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️”
“Chris was magic to work with. Super communicative, easy-going and ultimately a dog lover. I highly recommend Chris for anyone who is looking for extended dog boarding. (We used Chris for over a week while moving down to Florida). Thanks again for having our Pyradoodle!”
“Yaqi is absolutely the best, I have an elderly Frenchie who is generally with me 24/7. I was very worried about leaving her with anybody but Yaqi very quickly put my mind at ease. 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.”
“We would highly recommend Shalyn and Joe to anyone looking to have their dog looked after. They responded promptly to any concerns we had and we received daily photos and updates on how our Pixie was doing.”
“Patricia took great care of Tess for us! She was very communicative and send lots of updates. Tess came home happy and healthy! We would definitely ask Patricia to help us with Tess again”
“Hannah was a great for a 2-week trip we needed care for our dog. From the beginning, she was super responsive and very responsible, from the meet and greet thru a few changes I needed to make after booking. She was easygoing and flexible, and made us so relaxed to leave our little guy. During the trip, she updated us daily and was very communicative. We never worried and I knew Opie was in a warm, friendly, and loving home with so many friends to play with. He came home happy and tired and clean. We’ll definitely use Hannah’s wonderful services again!”
“Jessica was absolutely amazing! This was my first time going through Rover and I am so happy we found her. She babysat biscuit for 2 nights for us and was very friendly, sent photos throughout the day and bonus she also had a mini doodle Gracie that got along great with our Biscuit. Overall very happy with her services! Would 100% book with her again in the future.”
“Carolyn is a VERY SWEET lady!! She made sure my we felt more than comfortable leaving our dog. We have NEVER boarded our dog prior to having this planned get away that was just too far for driving. (We've ALWAYS driven with the dogs in the past.) Carolyn met, Lady. (our 3 year old dog.) She never pressured us AT all!! She wanted to make sure Lady along with my wife & I felt perfectly comfortable. While we were out of town we received daily message updates, pictures and even videos from Carolyn. We're SO HAPPY we found Carolyn!! 😊 Now, we have a FANTASTIC place to board, Lady!! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Carolyn to make sure your dog is safe, happy and having fun!! - We wish this would have been sooner. Better late than never!! If my wife could give her more than 5 STARS she WOULD!!”
“Dorothy is amazing and we couldn’t recommend her enough. She took the time to get to know my pup and her needs, and sent many updates while we were away. We are happy to have found someone we trust so much!”
“Everything went well included meet and greet before boarding. My 8 month puppy Mochi enjoyed playing and get along with their dog Loki. Mr and Mrs. Ganesh took care of Mochi nicely and being patient even she had accident then tied for more often potty breaks for solution. They shared Some videos and pictures .”
“Danielle was very communicative and took care of our dogs like they were her own. Highly recommend. Our dogs got all the love and a daily walk which they definitely enjoyed.”
“Freddy was well taken care of by Mike and Janet. We got plenty of pics and msgs about how Freddy was doing. We will definitely have Mike watch Freddy again when we leave town! Super nice people!!”
“Alicia was the best! I knew from our meet and greet that she was going to be great with Tig and of course she was. I had no worries while we were out of town as she sent updates and photos of our Tig often. I can tell he is going to miss his new hangout and all their love & cuddles. I will absolutely book again if I need to in the future.”
“Michelle took AWESOME care of my dogs. At the meet and greet we discussed concerns I had about my dogs staying in a strange place and Michelle was so good with them none of the concerns I had up front were a problem. She patiently worked through separation anxiety problems, behaviors I can't see when I'm around, until she found a solution, and updated me on everything. Now I know more about how my dogs act when I'm not around and my dogs have learned how to handle some new situations. They had a blast spending days in the yard or snuggling up to watch movies. And my little one learned than some kids love to play fetch as much as she does.”
“I simply do not know what I would do without RhondaRose. The kindest, most professional, flexible, helpful sitter anyone could ever wish for. I am so grateful knowing that Clover is getting such loving care. Thank you!”

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Barrington Hills
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 4,076 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Barrington Hills. 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 Barrington Hills 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 Barrington Hills 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 Barrington Hills 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 Barrington Hills.
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 Barrington Hills 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.
