“Lizzie was a perfect caretaker for our 7 year old golden doodle! She sent pictures, videos and communicated the perfect amount during our dog’s stay. We will booking with her again!”
“Miranda came through for us in the last second when someone cancelled 2 days before our trip. Appreciate that so much. She sent constant updates of the pups and what they were up to and my dogs came and crashed which tells me they had a blast based on the pics and how tired they were :) Thanks Miranda!”
“Balbina was great! We left Simba with her for 2 weeks while we were out of the country. She took good care of our Simba and sent daily pictures and videos along with updates on his activities etc. I would highly recommend Balbina to anyone looking for dog care.”
“Jo’Ell put me at ease from the moment we met! I was nervous sourcing outside family for our old pup’s care. A week away from him was stressful, for us and our Diesel, a very new experience. But the communication and pics were a great comfort, while we were away. Diesel fit right in at Jo’Ell’s warm home. Her daughter, Blythe, pitched in to keep Diesel feeling welcomed and cared for! Their love of dogs and the experience was very evident and reassuring! The Rover site was easy to use, the many listings and information provided made finding and working with our new “go to sitter” a breeze…Thank you all!”
“I am grateful that I booked with La Toya. Her services are amazing. She provides updates and pictures and I can tell that she took amazing care of my yorkies while we were away. I will definitely be booking again.”
“Taylor and Samuel were amazing and took very good care of our dog. They made sure to send pictures and give updates and clearly enjoyed having him around. I would definitely recommend and book with them again!”
“Lily was so happy staying with Katie and Tim! I can tell she had a lot of walks and playtime because she’s pretty tired from all the fun. I got plenty of pictures and updates during our time away and always felt in the loop. Thanks Katie and Tim!”
“Justine and Brett took excellent care of our Dexter while we were on vacation. He is high energy and got lots of exercise and attention while we were gone. Would definitely recommend them and be using them again!”
“Brian and his family were amazing! We did a meet and greet beforehand and I knew from there my dog would be in the best hands. They would send me pictures daily and would reply to me right away! Communication was great throughout the whole stay. Would definitely be using again. Thank you guys”
“The care Kimberly provided was top notch. Our pup was well cared for and we were able to enjoy our time away knowing he was in good hands. We will use Kimberly again without hesitation.”
“We had to leave our 4 yr old golden doodle boy with Matthew & Michelle for a week. This was his very first time without our company since he was brought home from the breeder 4 years ago. We were pretty worried if he could adjust himself to an absolutely new environment. But we were relieved with the care that Matthew & Michelle provided to our baby. First of all, they provided us a very flexible time to drop off and pick up, and then sent us the updates and photos every day. They allowed him to freely stay anywhere in the house just the way how he does at his own home. They walked him couple times a day, played with him in their backyard with his favorite toy, took him to the Memorial Day parade, allowed him to lay next to them while they were working, and gave him new toys to play. We could tell easily that how comfortable Simba felt staying with Matthew & Michelle! Thank you so much Matthew & Michelle for your excellent job on taking care of Simba! We are so grateful that we found you as Simba’s first sitter! Will definitely ask for your help watching Simba in the future! THANK YOU!!!”
“We were fortunate to find Shannon. We have a somewhat special needs dog (Sandy) and didn’t think we could find an appropriate sitter. But Sandy quickly accepted Shannon and her two beautiful dogs, Lex and Captain Black. We were able to enjoy a worry free trip knowing Sandy was receiving excellent care. We highly recommend Shannon and will use her service in the future.”
“Penelope had a wonderful stay for the week. She was very well cared for, happy, and comfortable the entire time. Communication was great throughout the stay, and it was clear Penelope was treated like part of the family. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter”
“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.”
“This is my third time leaving my dog with Vanessa, and I couldn’t be happier. My pup gets so excited every time we arrive at her house ! She cares for him with so much love, follows all feeding instructions, takes him on walks, and sends daily photos and videos. It’s such a comfort seeing him so happy and relaxed with her and her family ,it definitely eases the guilt while you're away on vacation Thank you, Vanessa, for taking such wonderful care of my little one !”
“Peggy was great! Our dog Groot had a wonderful time. She responded quickly to our request and thankfully, was okay booking last minute. She kept us updated regularly on how he was doing to keep our minds as ease. We will definitely be using her services again!”

This was our first time using the app. It was also our dogs first time staying away from us so long (6 days). However, Kim reassured me they were in good hands and they were. We definitely feel much more at ease when we travel now knowing they will be with Kim. We will definitely book again. Thanks!
Kimberly was so accommodating with Iris. We were staying at one of her camping spots (you can find her place on HipCamp) and had to attend a family event nearby that wasn't dog friendly. Kimberly not only took Iris in, but our pup got to hang with her dogs and get in some healthy playtime. She also has a nice little fenced in dog park on her property. Iris loved getting to check out all of the farm animals as well. We'll definitely be dropping our pup off again if we're in the area. Thanks, Kimberly! And Iris paw-thanks you as well!

There are 1,070 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Big Rock. About 93% of Big Rock 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.
