“What a great experience! Wrigley felt right at home, he loved playing with Dan and Joys kids. I received daily updates and pictures. I would give Wrigley’s stay and the friendly atmosphere a 5++. Thank you for treating Wrigley as family. Cathy Gonzalez”
“Great relief, knowing my dog Barbie was in great hands for two weeks. Latasha would also send updates and pictures which really was really comforting to know Barbie was being well took care of. Would highly recommend Latasha to family and friends.”
“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. 🫶🏼”
“I really like Delilah’s sitter. She was nice and professional and I loved how she got her to feel comfortable with being there. Delilah has a stomach issue but the sitter sat with her and hand fed her. I would ofoved a lot more pictures but the ones she at made me feel comfortable with leaving her and knowing she was safe.”
“Sheree is very patient and understanding with our big puppy Blue ,he was very nervous and scared since it was his first night away and worked with him and kept us posted via text and photos,we really appreciate the thought and care she put into Blue! Thank you Sheree!”
“Shani (and her kiddos☺️) LOVED on my pup while I was away. Shani was an excellent communicator and sent update photos and videos, too. I really appreciated such good communication and how well Lady was taken care of. When you see your dog smiling in the update photos, you know it’s real. I’ll be looking to book Shani for my next trip away.”
“I dropped my three dogs off at Mariah's home and found that my dogs were happy, relaxed pups. Mariah was communicative from start to finish, with regular updates and photos that gave me real peace of mind. Our senior dog, Nacho, has specific needs, and Mariah handled them with patience and care. Nacho was comfortable, well looked after, and never rushed. Our reactive dog, Pearl, is not an easy one to care for, and Mariah handled her calmly and confidently. Mariah respected her triggers and kept everyone safe and stress-free. Finding a sitter we can trust with a reactive dog is rare, and we're so grateful. Mariah's home was a safe, welcoming space for all three, and it's clear Mariah loves animals.”
“Thank you for doing such an amazing job. I was so impressed. We will definitely be booking again. Jack had so much fun and I can tell he was well taken care of. We can’t thank you enough.”
“Wow! Bola is the best:) She gave our girl such a good time, she went to sleep at 9 and is still tired today. That’s what you love to see. Would highly recommend this sitter for boarding, we will definitely be booking her again!”
“I had a wonderful experience with Bernice as my dog sitter! She truly went above and beyond to ensure my baby Chase was well taken care of. Berniece gave my dog the freedom to explore the house and play with other dogs, which made me feel at ease. The regular photo updates she sent were a thoughtful touch, and it was clear that my dog was in good hands. I highly recommend Bernice for anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”
“Kassia and Flash were great hosts for Rockett for a week long stay while I was out of town for work. Kassia was quick to respond and shared updates with me. I highly recommend Kassia for boarding or daycare!”
“My dog was so calm after I picked him up boarding with Kyla. Energetically, I could tell that he was very well taken care of with her - no stress, no anxiety, just peace. TY KYLA!!!”
“Elisa was great, this was my pups second time staying with her and her family! She was very accommodating to my last minute booking after the original rover I booked had to cancel the day before. She sent updates and photos, and I could tell my dog was happy and well taken care of when she was dropped back off! I will definitely reach out to her first next time :)”
“Dominique was AB-SO-LUTE-LY Fabulous!!! She treated my babies like her very own (even calling them by their "cutesy" baby names when she scratched them under their cheeks and behind the ears). She created a safe, loving and clean space for them... allowing them to thrive. Truth be told, I'm kind of jealous that they "took to her" so quickly and didn't miss me more (our first time separated in 11 years). Knowing Dominique was taking such great care of them, made the stressful time I was going through easier to manage. My babies came back, calm,well feldand clean!!! 👍 I will definitely seek out Ms. Dominique again for any and all future pet needs.”
“Tabitha was so amazing and took such great care of Taco! I really appreciated all of the pictures she sent me as well. It was really great as well that Taco had other dog friends to play with while I was gone! Next time I go out of town, I would definitely book again!”
“Alexis watched our baby girl Cookie and we had such peace of mind with the regular updates and pictures she sent! She also helped with some great tips for our little pup! We couldn’t be happier and look forward to having her watch our Cookie girl again!!!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Calumet City
I had such a great experience with Genevieve and her husband! They were both really nice and welcoming, and I felt comfortable leaving my dog with them. Their home is also so nice and cozy, which made me feel even better knowing he was staying somewhere comfortable. I also loved that they have a fenced-in yard where the dogs can safely go outside, run around, and play. They took great care of him, and I will definitely book again!!!
Fantastic, very attentive and interactive with my pups! I know they are in good hands with Juliana and Michael. My girls have only been with them for a short time and they are already excited to greet them, because they associate Juliana and Michael with a good time.

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Calumet City is $56 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $37 and $66 per night.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
95% of sitters in Calumet City can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Calumet City home-away-from-home, 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 Calumet City.
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 Calumet City 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 , 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 .
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.
