“Knight loves staying at June's. June is one of Knight's favorite people and as a bonus, Knight also gets to play with Cookie. My husband and I know that Knight was safe and well taken care of. Knight came home relaxed and happy! Booking another boarding request for August :)”
“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!”
“Shalyn, Joseph and their family were awesome with our Jazzi and Lady! Sadie, their dog is super friendly and easy going. They all got a long great! The kids pampered our fur babies and we're so gentle with them. Fenced in yard and plenty of room to run. They walked them regularly and updates were super. We are lucky to have found them here on Rover. Highly recommend!”
“This is the second time our dog has stayed with Derek. She returned happy and was well taken care of. It’s so nice to not have to worry about your dog while on vacation. Knowing she was in good hands was priceless. Thank you Derek!”
“A very loving family with lots of pet experience. They were able to teach my dog how to “drop” a ball after fetching. Before she would not want to give it up after fetching a toy. They also helped her learn how to get along with other dogs.”
“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.”

“Our dog came back happy which is all we can ask for. We received so many great videos and photos of Sadie while we were gone which gave us the peace of mind that we needed. We will absolutely use her services again in the future!”
“Great experience leaving my pup with Katey and her family. They are loving caring people and took great care of my puppy. Katey kept me updated on my puppy’s stay and how she was doing. My pup got to play with her dog and came back home very happy. I would recommend anyone to have them watch your dog.”
“Holly's second extended stay with Jackie was another great experience. Daily updates and photos, lots of attention and treats, and Holly even received a little holiday gift! Absolutely recommend.”
“My mini Doxie is definitely anxious and sensitive and I always feel nervous leaving him with someone. Not only was Beans comfortable but I was made to feel confident with all the pictures and videos throughout the stay! Would definitely use Yaqi again!”
“We had Maverick, our 7 months old Husky, with Shauna & Peter for 10 days..They took such a wonderful care of Maverick and shared many photos and videos every day..They took Maverick for multiple walks and lot of outdoor activities. He was very much loved and enjoyed his stay with Shauna, Peter and their daughters. We are glad we found them on Rover. They are wonderful! I would highly recommend Shauna & Peter and would definitely have them to take care of Maverick next time!”
“I accidentally came across Rover.com in May 2015 while search DoggyLoot.com. This opened my eyes to a nationwide in-home dog care. I saved the link for Rover.com. We planned a long weekend out of town since our friends who had watched Abbi our English Pointer before we're going out of town on the same weekend. I immediately remembered my Rover.com find so I began looking thru the Sitters in our area. I wanted to make sure the Sitter who watched Abbi had experience caring for dogs with special needs and would not mind giving Abbi the love she deserves since she was diagnosed with Cancer last year. I came across our later chosen Sitter Yvette and her 2 wonderful little dogs since her Rover.com photos showed the front of her home. Her home style was very familiar because we ended up living in the same townhouse subdivision. We knew Abbi would be very familiar with the neighborhood so we called Yvette. She insisted that we schedule a Meet and Greet for Abbi. Yvette's calendar was so open and flexible. Since we ended up living a street from Yvette we took Abbi for a very short walk to Yvette's. When Abbi walked in she was immediately at home. Yvette's 2 small dogs and Abbi hit it off from the start by sitting on the couch as the parents joined them to talk. Abbi performed a house tour on her own which Yvette insisted she do and she returned showing she would be happy staying with Yvette. We dropped Abbi off a week later with Yvette who showed her love in dogs from the start. She was able to give Abbi her daily med with no problem. When we came to pick up Abbi she thought we were only visiting. She wanted to stay longer with Yvette. We highly recommend Yvette since she cared for Abbi as if she was her own dog. She is definitely a 5 star Rover Sitter. ”
“Roberto and his family did a wonderful job sitting for our dog Hopper while we were on vacation for two weeks. He sent us pictures and updates every day or two. They really made Hopper part of the family (even though Hopper kept stealing all of their dog’s toys and attention). We were very happy to be able to leave Hopper in a home where he was so well cared for.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Carpentersville
He was great! I reached out pretty last minute and had a slightly complicated situation since I was in Ohio and my dog was with my mom in Chicago, so we had to coordinate everything remotely. He was incredibly accommodating and made the whole process easy. My mom felt very comfortable dropping my dog off with someone neither of us had met before, especially given how last minute everything was. He was super nice, communicative, and sent me pictures and updates while I was away, which I really appreciated. I’d definitely feel comfortable leaving my dog with him again!

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.
92% of Carpentersville 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 Carpentersville 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 Carpentersville 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 Carpentersville.
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 Carpentersville 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.
