“She was great with Capri! Got pictures every day and updates on how she was. Definitely recommend her. She made my first experience with boarding my dog very easy and a breeze.”
“Rachel was wonderful with my two dogs. They felt right at home with her family. She's great with dogs and is very aware of tfeir behaviors. She proactively met with us prior to the stay to see how my dogs would interact with some of the other dogs she watches. Everything worked out great. I would highly recommend Rachel.”

“Carla was AMAZING! It was my first time leaving my dogs - 3 of them none the less- with anyone and I was very nervous but she made me feel so much better and like they were left with family. On top of that, we had recently adopted a new puppy and she willingly took on them all and loved them as I do. She sent me pictures and videos multiple times a day (as she knew I was nervous) and my family and I loved seeing how happy they were and how loved they were. We are already planning to use her for our summer vacation. Highly recommend using Carla for your pups if you want them loved and cared for ❤️”


“Jessica was the perfect host for Atticus and very accommodating. We had a last minute work trip come up and she was willing to let us book lat minute. While in the trip I had to extend to another day and Jessica had no hesitation in allowing us to extend for an extra night! We are thankful for such a loving host and enjoyed the wonderful pictures through out his stay! Thank you for the amazing stay with Atticus.”


“Stella and her lovely family were absolutely wonderful with our guy. They were of course very much experienced and knowledgeable. They provided daily feedback and were very responsive to any messages. Highly recommend and would come back!”

“Tanya and her family took great care of my dog! I would get picture and video updates of them hanging out and going on walks. I could tell my dog was enjoying his time with them. I would highly recommend them!”

“Derek has been fantastic to work with, so easy to communicate with and incredibly responsive. We left our 7 year old chocolate lab with him for a weekend out of town and he sent me lots of pictures and updates, which really put our mind at ease. My dog came home happy and clearly has a great time. Highly recommend!”

“I don't know where to start. They took care of our dog for 8 days and we were able to enjoy our vacation without worrying. I received daily updates with pictures, videos and kind words.

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.
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 Chemung 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 Chemung 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 Chemung.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Chemung. On Rover:

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Chemung 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
