“Desiree was amazing with our 4 year old terrier mix and high energy 5 month old puppy! We were nervous with our puppy who hadn’t been in boarding before, and she was great with keeping us posted on their behavior & sending daily pics/updates. Our dogs came home exhausted from having so much fun at their time away. She was also great with our 4 y.o. who preferred her personal space around the younger dogs there. We will absolutely use her again!”
“Donelle was great, unfortunately Monroe will not be able to stay with her again, she said he marked often, this is expected from male dogs specifically when other dogs are present”
“Best experience ever. I was extremely nervous about leaving my dog at first, but Latasha made me feel comfortable. She was able to accommodate my last minute booking and sent photo updates throughout.”
“The best dog sitter on Rover! She always takes such good care of our dog and is so great at communicating, updating and sending photos. She’s always so flexible with pickup/drop-off and is so quick at respond to booking inquiries. We basically won’t leave our dog with anyone else and always check with Liz’s availability before booking travel because I don’t think our dog would want to stay anywhere else and we certainly wouldn’t want him to either.”
“Kori obviously had a great time at Jim’s. Jim is very organized and attended to my senior dog’s needs well in the quiet and relaxed environment she needs. I would feel comfortable having Kori stay with Jim again.”
“This was our first time working with Christie and it was great. She watched our 11 year old dachshund Frank. We were updated every day and it was obvious Frank was happy. We're looking forward to having Frank stay again sometime when we travel in the future.”
“Jesus was great with my poodle, he sent pictures or video of him daily. Jesus is caring and in tune to what your pet needs. He had so many toys for the dogs to play with. Jesus has a wonderful personality, and my dogs seem to love him. When I picked up my poodle Jesus had given him a bath, his bed was washed, and he was happy. I could not have picked a better person to keep my poodle. Jesus is the best of the best and my poodle enjoyed his time with Jesus and his family!”
“Sheree H. is the BEST!! It was our first time getting a dog sitter for our fur baby MILO and we were nervous initially. However, Sheree put our minds at ease by sending updates throughout the day she even sent video footage. I highly recommend Sheree for your dog boarding needs.”
“Amazing, attentive, and so caring. Her dogs are soooo nice too! My dog will be coming very often and I definitely recommend!!!! Very spacious as well my dog had her own room. 🫶🏼”
“Mark was great with answering my questions, and quick to respond to! Mark sent photos of how my dog was doing which I appreciated and made me feel like he was really being taken care of. He was great with my dog and I will not hesitate to ask Mark to watch him again.”
“Tabitha was so amazing and I loved all the pictures I got. My babies looked so happy and relaxed. I would definitely use and refer her to all my friends and family.”
“This was my first time using Rover and I am so grateful I found Juliana. I was so nervous leaving my baby in the care of anyone for the first time on an extended stay. Juliana took such good care of my Benito! Her communication was great and you can tell she truly is an animal lover. I would definitely recommend her! Thank you for caring for my Benito! 🫶🏽🐈⬛”
“Tonisa was an awesome sitter for Koda. This was Koda’s first time being away from us for such a long period of time so i was apprehensive but after meeting Tonisa I felt at ease. During Koda’s stay, Tonisa sent frequent pictures and updates. I highly recommend!”
“1000/10, She contacted me everyday with updates and pictures/ videos. I definitely will be recommending her to my friends and family. My dog loved Ms. Toya, she came back home just as happy as she was when I dropped her off!!!”
“I really want to say Big Thank You for taking care of my dog.This was first time for me to use dog sitter and I wa scared and unsure how this will work.And big Wow!!!! I received pictures every day and news about my dog. Lilliana was so nice from the beginning .I am very thankful for all that you did with my dog.Very very happy and I REALLY APPRECIATE YOUR WORK.Thank you so much for everything Kasia”
About: I have owned dogs and cats since I was a small child. I have two kids of my own ages 10 and 13, who are also animal lovers! We are a busy family that can’t commit to having a pet full time at this moment but would love to have cats and dogs in the home when we can! I currently work part time, so I have 2 full days off during the week and weekends to help out with dog walking and pet sitting/boarding. I can come to you or you can choose to bring your pets to me if that works out. I can also drop in after work days at night if needed after 430pm. I can offer dog walking and companionship as well as car rides if your pup likes those! Really just depends on what you and your pet need and I can make it happen. I have a safe home with a nice Fenced in yard and we live across the street from a large park where they can play!
The median cost per night for pet boarding in Blue Island is $50
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Blue Island
Great experience! First time boarding my 13 year old dog using Rover with Iman. She was highly recommended and I have to agree she is great . Kept me updated throughout my time away from my fur baby. And upon my return my fur baby didn’t want to leave. Will definitely use Iman again if needed.
Mercedes and her family were amazing as usual! We always feel so comfortable dropping our dog off with her! Please do not look any further to find a better dog sitter. She is the sweetest human and cares for every dog with so much love! Mercedes is GREAT at communication, so I am always updated and feel at ease! She is simply the best!
I couldn’t have asked for a better pet experience for my 5 month old puppy. I reached out to Amy just a week before and was pleasantly surprised that she was available but also happy to watch my active 5 month old Golden Retriever. I could tell by her profile she was someone who would care for him well. And that certainly was the case . We had originally planed for a 3pm drop off and late night pick up after a concert. And less than 24 hours before that, I asked if she could watch him from 8am instead bc of a sudden change in my plans. She immediately responded that she was available and it was such a relief. At drop off, she asked me several questions about Cypher’s care and needs and it was very reassuring. I received many photos and a video of Cypher’s extended day with her. He had a blast running in her yard and playing and being with her two pups. He also got to meet one of the kittens she was fostering. He was also able to settle and sleep in a crate she had available. It was the perfect environment for him. I’m so thankful for the care she took of him. He came back to me happy and was clearly well looked after. I highly recommend Amy. She is very trustworthy and cares deeply for animals as is evident in my experience with her. I would use her again.
Katherine was great and took really good care of our senior dog, Bentley. She kept us informed during his stay and sent photos, which was super helpful and reassuring, since this was our first time leaving him with a non-family member. He enjoyed his little vacation and came home happy!

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Blue Island on Rover is $31.03 per night (as of September 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 4,980 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Blue Island. About 91% of Blue Island 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.
