“Mike and Joanna came through in a pinch for us when our accommodations changed unexpectedly while traveling. Our dogs stayed with them for two nights and Joanna sent photos and updates every day. It was pretty much a spa vacation for them, with a pool and a ball pit and new dig friends, and couch snuggles at night. We know where our dogs will be staying from day one if we are ever back in Chicago!”

“We felt very comfortable leaving our pup with Katherine and her beautiful family! Oliver seemed quite at home there. We typically have angst when leaving Oliver with the big doggie daycare chains, especially for several days. A home environment where there are people who care, interact, play and walk our pup puts us much more at ease.”

“Eniya is such a great sitter for my dog! He always comes back happy and looks forward to seeing her when she arrives. Eniya is calming for him which is what he needs and she checks in with me daily giving updates on how he is doing in her care! She’s trustworthy and dependable! I highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs!”

“This is Manuel’s 2nd time watching my kitty Luna and he was just as awesome as the first time! He sent me a ton of photos, was very flexible with pick up and drop off times and overall very communicative.”

“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!!!”

“Elizabeth and her soon took great care of our 3 dogs and were very loving. She provided an amazing care, I recommend her 100%. She kept us updated and shared with us pictures during their stay. I would definitely hire her again.”

“Wayne was awesome and took such great care of my fur babe! He provided frequent pictures and updates that put me at ease while overseas! Will definitely rebook in the future. Thanks Wayne🙏🏻”

“Incredible communication, and flexible when we had an emergency and had to leave ralphie for an extra night. Hope to board Ralph with Lorraine again soon! Thank you so much.”


“Cary is fantastic! I know my dogs are well cared for at her house. She sends great pictures and when we arrived, my dogs were super happy to be there, so that says a lot! Thank you Cary!”


“Angelica is the nicest most sincere person I have met on Rover. It was my 2 dogs that were equally on a great vacation maybe even better than mine. The dogs have a ramp to their bed, other dogs to play with and a great environment to play and live. A+++. She also was extremely accommodating to our schedule and sent wonderful pictures. Will DEFINITELY use again.”

“Kandyce was great with our dog and with us! She kept in touch and was responsive, while also being patient with our dog's idiosyncrasies. The dog loved playing with Kandyce's dogs, too. Highly recommend!”

“Katarina was so patient with Luna and I appreciated the whole process from the intro to the pick up!! She made me and Luna feel extremely welcomed and shared plenty of pictures. I would absolutely use her again and would recommend! 10 out of 10, no notes!”

“Our dog had such a great time with Mercedes! She got lots of walks and affection. I really appreciate the daily pictures and updates, too. Mercedes is such a kind person, and I knew she wanted to make this a great experience for all. We'd definitely use her again.”

“Jaqueline is a great sitter and we highly recommend her for taking care of any dogs. We have an anxious rescue and Jaqueline was really patient and communicative with us, and made her space welcoming. She sends lots of pictures and we’re so happy she and Casper took such good care of our dog!”

“My dog loves Ethel. She stayed in Ethel’s care for a week and came home like she’s not been away. It’s incredible. Ethel sends pictures of her walks and took her to the dog park. So happy with her services.”

I was nervous about leaving our sweet dog for the longest stretch so far, but I immediately felt comfortable with Tamara. She sent videos, photos and updates to show how well our dog adjusted. She is a lovely, caring person who I fully trust with my dog and highly recommend!

We had a wonderful experience with Suzy! This was our first time using her, and she made us feel completely at ease. She sent daily updates and photos, which we really appreciated while we were away. It was clear our dogs were well cared for and getting lots of attention. When we got home, they were calm, happy, and relaxed—a great sign they had been in excellent hands. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable dog sitter! Thank you very much!

Phyllis was an amazing sitter for Coffee! She did a great job keeping me updated with regular status updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that she genuinely cared for Coffee and made sure he was comfortable and happy. Coffee had such a great time staying with her, and I could tell he was very well taken care of. I would absolutely book with Phyllis again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter on Rover!

Holly and her family immediately welcomed Lincoln into their home and made sure he felt comfortable during his stay. Holly sent us lots of updates and made sure we knew how our boy was doing. Would highly recommend and Lincoln hopes he can visit again. He especially loved his playtime with Holly’s pups Layla and Piper☺️

Selene took wonderful care of our dog, Peanut! She sent us daily pictures and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear Peanut was happy and well cared for. We’re so grateful for her attentiveness and kindness, and we would absolutely trust her with Peanut again. Highly recommend!

Sandra was absolutely wonderful in taking care of Ellie! From our initial meeting to the final pickup, everything was seamless and stress-free. She kept us updated regularly with pictures and made sure Ellie was happy and comfortable throughout. We truly appreciate her care and attention.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Countryside on Rover is $72.14 per night (as of July 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 5,583 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Countryside. About 90% of Countryside 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.
