“Soojin is an amazing doggy sitter! My pup Toby loved her so much, the next time I brought him to stay with her he was practically jumping out of the car window to jump in her arms. She truly loves dogs and caring for them and will treat your pup as if it's her own. 10/10! Will absolutely bring Toby back to stay with her when I need a sitter.”
“Julie was available last minute, and even with the limited time she was swift to respond and easy to communicate with. We dropped Brutus off and met her two dogs and son who would all be hanging out - I could instantly tell this was going to be great for our Maltese. After receiving a few fun photos throughout the stay, Brutus was happy and totally exhausted when we picked him up. Thanks for a great stay and highly recommended!”
“We were so happy with the care that was provided for our two dogs. We received pictures of our dogs. They looked happy. She alway went the extra mile for our dogs. One of the dogs was licking his paw alot and she provided care for him. She kept us informed and we were confident of her care. We are so thankful and will definitely recommend her with your dog.”
“Diana and her family were so wonderful to our puppy, Obi! I was so appreciative of the updates and pictures of our puppy since this was the first time we have ever used a dog sitter. Obi even seemed sad when we got home since he bonded so much with one of their dogs! We will for sure reach out to Diana whenever we are going to travel again. Thanks Diana!!”
“We've left our dog with Marta several times for both daycare and boarding, and she's been absolutely wonderful every time. She sends pics often and it makes us feel at ease seeing our pup having a blast with the other dogs and having her own little vacation while we're away. Highly recommend!!”
“I can't recommend Mario enough for anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter! Mario watched my dog Dean for five days, and I couldn't be happier with the service he provided. He sent me daily pictures and videos of Dean, which really put my mind at ease while I was away. Mario made sure Dean received his medication on time and gave him plenty of love and attention. I could tell that Dean was in good hands the whole time. Thank you, Mario, for your excellent care and professionalism. I will definitely be reaching out to you again in the future!”
“Amy & Lamar took amazing care of our dog! We will continue to book with them. They send us photos/videos daily which is so nice to see. Our pup was excited to be back with them!”
“From the first moment our dog Gali stepped into Mark and Lorie’s house she seemed very comfortable. Gali stayed at their house for two weeks and Lorie made sure to send me updates and pictures. Gali looked happy which put me at ease. After picking up Gali we found her in good health and cheerful as usual. She seemed to have a great time. Thanks for everything!”
“Sonya was great with my Havanese Chewie! The past dog sitters we've tried Chewie seemed really stress out afterwards. But not with Sonya! He seemed very comfortable with her and loved her kids. Happy to have found someone that works well with my dog and look forward to having her watch him in the future.”
“Janette and Charles are the greatest. We were anxious about leaving our dog with a new sitter while on vacation for a week, but based on the daily photos and videos they shared with us, our dog Stevie had a terrific time. Stevie enjoyed playing in their huge fenced in yard with other dogs and snoozing on the couch after running around all day. Janette and Charles took great care of our fur baby and we will be sure to book with them again soon.”
“First time having Livia and Matthew take our pups overnight. Was really happy to see how they engaged with the pups, gave us status updates, and followed through by discussing their stay when we picked them up. When something out of the ordinary came up, they texted to confirm in order to get To understand the pups better. We strongly recommend them and will be using their services in the future. Thank you Livia and Matthew.”
“Jean is caring and very attentive to my dog. She gave multiple updates throughout his time there and paid attention to his behavior and asked questions. Very highly recommended”
“Our dog loves Ella! She is great at communicating with us regarding our dog, activities they did, and more. She is always very flexible and accommodating. Our Lilly always looks forward to hanging out with Ella!”
“Marley and Mikey were well taken care of as usual. They love it here. Always am at ease with their care which is important. Marley and Mikey get plenty of exercise, love and care. I love all the pictures I get throughout their stay.”
“Thea was the best. She’s very gentle and loving. You can tell she really loves pets and takes good care of them. I really appreciate her sending me updates (pictures and videos) every now and then. She was also sweet to send us guides and tips on how to train and handle our puppy. Thanks thea!:)”
“Luciana took very good care of our chihuahua. Luciana is very professional and friendly. She listened to our instructions very carefully and adhered to it. She took the dog out multiple times and fed him on time as requested. She gave very frequent updates and posted photos and videos of the dog having a happy time at her home. Overall a great experience and I would definitely recommend her and be a repeat customer as well”

Livia and Matthew are THE BEST!! They were so kind and took very good care of my dog while I was on vacation. I felt completely at ease and relaxed while away knowing that my dog is happy and safe with Livia and Matthew. They sent lots of pictures and updates on what she's doing and how happy she was. I would board my dog again with Livia and Matthew in the future without hesitation.
My dogs were so well taken care of by Gvido and family! They have a fantastic, fully fenced yard that my dogs loved to explore. They also took my dogs on daily walks in the nearby forest preserve. It made me so happy that my dogs were so happy while we were out of town!
Svetlana and her family took great care of my dog with medical needs. She followed my instructions by ensuring that medication/needs were given at specific times. She gave my dog plenty of attention throughout his stay and reassured me with important updates. This is the second time we've used Svetlana, and my dog ran right up to the house at drop-off--a sign of a trusted sitter! Highly recommended.
This was our first time leaving Lula with a Rover host rather than in a kennel and we were a bit nervous, but Abby immediately eased are worries with detailed updates and great photos. Abby even put Lula's suspender boots on for the walks. When it is very wet outside, Lula becomes filthy and the boots help keep her clean. Even though Lula tolerates putting the boots in, it's never an easy feat with an 80lb dog, so we were very pleased when Abby showed up a happy (dry/clean) Lula with boots on for her walks. We would 100% book with Abby again!
Soojin went above and beyond in caring for our dog. She and her young children loved having him with them, and spoiled him with attention, love, and accommodation. Many updates, pics and videos were sent our way during our time away, and there was always quick communication. Our dog Ollie loved playing in their fenced in backyard. We hope to book with them again someday!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Deerfield is $48 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $37 and $83 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

As of October 2026, there are 4,998 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Deerfield. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Deerfield 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 Deerfield 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 Deerfield.
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 Deerfield 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.
