“Thank you June and Wade for taking good care of our dog for a long week+ vacation. Thank you for daily pics and updates on how she adjusted over the time. Grateful for her being able to relax at your home, giving me peace of mind.”

“Another wonderful stay with Jackie and her family! Our dog Ivy is treated like one of their own dogs and we appreciate that! We also love getting videos and pictures daily!”
“YAQI took such great care of our Latte! She was very attentive and thoughtful, and she sent us lots of photos every day so we always knew how Latte was doing. He was so happy staying with her, and we felt truly at ease the entire time. We will definitely book with YAQI again the next time we.”
“Judy was incredible! She sent pictures everyday. We have never left our dog with anyone but family so we were super nervous. She did a wonderful job taking care of our dog. We will be sure to use her again if needed!”
“Both my 6.5-year-old Vizsla and my 3-month old Vizsla LOVE going to stay with Chris and her family. My older guy starts to shake and jump with excitement when we turn on her street, and I was worried about leaving our new puppy at home; however, with Chris' excellent love and care, they both did great. Can't recommend her enough!”
“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”
“Michelle did a great job with Bailey. She is very reliable and has a good system in place for caring for dogs. I like that she doesn’t take in a lot of dogs at once. I received updates with lots of pictures of Bailey. We are grateful that Bailey could play with other dogs and be in a safe home while we were out of town for the weekend. We would definitely use Michelle again!”
“Thank you so much for taking Maple on such short notice. Five stars are simply not enough to describe the wonderful experience we had. It was comforting to see that Maple had a loving home away from home. She clearly enjoyed playing in the fenced yard with Sadie, and I truly appreciated the frequent communication and photos you shared. It was great to see her receiving so much love and attention. I will definitely be using your services again.”
“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!”
“Jorge and Susie took wonderful care of my dog. They treated her as if she was their own. I will book them for any future trip and feel secure in knowing my baby will be in good hands ❤️❤️❤️”
“Kent has watched buddy twice now and he’s been great! Buddy can be particular and Kent has took good care of him. He’s always communicative when we check in as well, thank you Kent!”
“Byron and Martha are the best. They took really good care of our dog Noki. They followed up each day with photos and followed all instructions for care. Will be reaching out again for his service thru Rover. For sure a 5 star sitter. Thanks again!”
“Jessica was flexible and reliable. We felt very comfortable leaving Selah in her hands an we would definitely use her again. Selah seemed to love being with Jessica and her daughter. They even took her in the car for an outing which she loves.”
“Ewa doesn’t disappoint! Olive loved her stay and feels so at home with Ewa. She loves the big fenced yard and all the attention and playtime, and I love getting all the updates, photos and videos. Ewa was flexible in allowing me to extend Olive’s stay as I was recovering from surgery. I really appreciated that. I’m so blessed and thankful to have such a wonderful environment and sitter for Olive!”
“Kim is amazing and took care of our Goldendoodle puppy very well. She’s very patient and send us many updates with photos and videos. Our dog came back to us clean and happy. I trust Kim with my baby boy and I can leave him with 100% peace of mind.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 3,959 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.
