“I am so thankful that Kent was able to take care of our precious girl Sprinkles. This was the longest time she stayed with a non-family member and Kent made us feel so comfortable with his updates and pictures. Will definitely book Kent again!!!”
“Gracie had a wonderful time. She was very, very well taken care of. I had pictures at least twice a day that made me feel that she was so safe. She seemed happy and having a very good time and very comfortable. I will not hesitate to use Susan again if I need Gracie to be watched, they’re very nice people. I feel that I have also made new friends for life.”
“Kasia stayed with our puppy Bella over the weekend and our experience was amazing! Kasia was so attentive and shared photos every day of Bella and her sweet little daughter! Kasia and her daughter played with Bella endlessly! We love that she only sits for one dog at a time! I will recommend Kasia to all of my friends! We hope to see you again soon! Thank you for taking such great care of our girl! ?”
“I was nervous to board my 17-year-old dog, but Lyn's experience gave me comfort. I knew I made the right call when I dropped my dog off. Lyn's family was welcoming and made me and my dog feel like we made the right decision. Lyn sent pictures and updates while I was gone, so I didn't have to worry. I would definitely board with Lyn again!”
“Arielle was wonderful with Charlie! She kept me updated, took great care of him, and made sure he felt comfortable. I really appreciate her kindness and patience. Highly recommend!”
“Allis is the best! She took such great care of my dog, as always. I love the pics and videos each day. She really cared about him, especially making sure he felt safe on 4th of July!”
“Eileen was terrific to work with! She is very experienced and organized and I felt good about things right away. She is very loving and caring with her dogs and sent cute pics throughout our stay which we loved. I would have Meatball stay with her again in a heartbeat!”
“I have left my dog with Tatiana for a week, two times so far, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! she took such great care of my dog, sending regular updates, photos, and also some videos that really put my mind at ease. It was clear that my dog felt comfortable and happy the whole time. I’m so grateful for the love and attention she provided. I would absolutely book again. Highly recommend!”
“Bob and Lia were beyond wonderful sitters. It is clear to see their love, compassion and patience for animals. This was by far one of the easiest and best experiences I have had, and our pups loved staying there as well! We'll be booking again with Bob and Lia soon, highly recommended!!”
“Rosie's love and care for our two dogs, Charlie and Peanut, was excellent. We boarded our ten-year-old special-needs dog (Peanut) and our fourteen-year-old senior dog (Charlie) for a few days with Rosie. She was able to administer medications and handle the different needs of each dog. We also greatly appreciate the help of Rosie's little dog, Bella and her daughter, Ruby. We have already booked a second boarding stay with Rosie due the confidence we have in her care for our doggies. Hooray!”
“Thomas is an amazing sitter, and communicating with him is very smooth. He sends me photos of my dog and keeps me updated on how he's doing. He was very patient waiting for me before I picked up Echo. I will continue to use him as a sitter in the future.”
“We left our 5-month-old Sheepoo with this sitter for the first time while we were away on a weekend trip, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. Communication was excellent from the start—the sitter was always quick to respond and kept us updated regularly. Most importantly, it was clear how much they genuinely cared for and loved our puppy, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Before his stay, our puppy was very hesitant during walks and would often get scared by passing cars. To our surprise, after spending time with this sitter, he became much more confident and comfortable on walks. We were amazed by the improvement. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of our pup. We truly appreciate everything you did and would absolutely book with you again!”
“We could not have selected a better home for Jussi to spend the week in. Rather than just agreeing to board Jussi, Vicki wanted to know as much about Jussi's character & needs beforehand so that she could tailor her care appropriately. Moreover, Vicki was not only not put off by her particular age-related difficulties, she was extremely sympathetic & understanding. The updates we received while on vacation showed Jussi active & interacting with other dogs on hand, & it was clear she received all the love & attention she needed. Boarding Jussi with Vicki & her family was an excellent experience & we will not hesitate to seek out her services in the future. Thank you, Vicki, for loving & caring for our Jussi in our absence.”
“Bear had a wonderful time with Diane he played with all her stuffed animals he had other for babies to play with she sent me videos of him playing she is absolutely amazing we will definitely use her again I felt very comfortable leaving him with her! I highly recommend Diane I am very particular about who watches my lil Bear”
“Eliza was great. Our dog is a senior and requires some extra attention. Eliza was great with her and sent us pics and texts to keep us in the loop on how she was doing.”
About: I've had a dog pretty much at all times since I was 6. My home is affectionately called The Pound, to some, it's called Club Bow Wow. As an adult I had a Jack Russell that crossed the rainbow when she was 17 years old. We had so much fun together, even in her senior years when her lifestyle changed. My current dog Bailey Rose was a rescue that truly found me at a time I thought I was not going to get a dog again. The moment I saw her, I knew she was going to be mine! Since adopting Bailey I have fostered 6 pups and she has been the best foster sister. My home has had up to 6 family dogs at the same time, hence the name The Pound. Whether it be for a visit or for sitting dogs love to be here because the feel the love and energy from me! I've boarded dogs for weeks at a time, although I prefer to board for shorter time. We take daily walks and play in my large yard multiple times a day. Your dog will be in safe loving hands with me and they will definitely have a fun time with Team Maggie and Bailey at The Pound. I work from home Monday thru Friday. My work time is pretty flexible so I can take breaks as needed for walks/check-in/playtime. I am also available on weekends as needed. I have a large fenced in yard. My home has space for your dog to freely roam and I have the space to crate if that is your preference. I have dog beds in my office while I work if your pup likes to be near their human friends.
“As usual, my dog was taken care of well and allowed me to have confidence that he was okay while I was away. D'artagnan has such great skills with dealing with and handling canines, I'll continue to be a repeat customer because of the great service that he provides. 5 stars, will recommend!”
“From the moment I met Kelly, I sensed her genuine love for animals. Her welcoming environment assures not just my cat, but any pet, would feel right at home. Kelly’s passion for pet care is evident in her actions and the happiness of those she looks after. I’d recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone seeking top-notch care for their pets!”
“Gabriela and Richard were so kind and sweet with my toy poodle! They even took her on little adventures to get doggie ice cream and nice walks around the neighborhood, aside from plenty of outside time in their own fenced-in backyard! Gabriela was super great about texting updates and super cute pics of my girl! And they even got her to eat a good bit while I was away even though she usually tries to go on a hunger strike in my absence. Gabriela met us for like 15 mins at the local park before boarding and got to know my dog and garner some info from me, which I really appreciated and not a lot of boarders do that! My girl was very happy when I picked her up and I would absolutely rebook Gabriela and Richard! Highly recommend!”

Kelly took care of my dog and cat, and she was seriously the best. She kept us updated with check ins, updates, and photos. She was so patient with my cat and was actually able to get him to come out and be with her, which has never happened before. You could tell she truly cares about animals and treats them as her own. I felt like I was actually able to relax knowing my babies were so well taken care of. Very grateful to find her!
Kasia was amazing with Bento! We were out of town for a couple of weeks, and she made it so much easier being away from him by sending regular videos and pictures to keep us updated. It was obvious he was happy, well cared for, and having a great time. We really appreciated all the communication and the care she gave him. We'll definitely be booking with Kasia again the next time we travel. Thank you for taking such great care of Bento!
Kent was wonderful with Rocky. Not only did he accommodate our last minute booking request with enthusiasm, he was a great communicator and made sure to stay in contact before, during and after Rocky’s stay. He sent me pictures as I requested and kept Rocky safe and cool in this crazy heat we are having. He seemed to really like Rocky, which is important too. Thank you Kent, we look forward to seeing you again soon!
With very short notice, Ed was able to accommodate our request for dog care for Maisie, our Golden Retriever. We were on an 11 day cruise and throughout our trip received pictures and updates on how Maisie was doing. She is a 1 year old golden with high energy and can be a handful. Not only did Ed improve her behavior on walks, but also worked on getting her to stop jumping on everyone she meets. It was wonderful to see her play with his dog and his children. Needless to say we wondered if she would want to come home with us because of all the attention she received. We highly recommend Ed and the wonderul care that he and his family provided for our Maisie.

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Elk Grove Village on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 5,414 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Elk Grove Village. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
93% of Elk Grove Village 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 Elk Grove Village 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 Elk Grove Village 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 Elk Grove Village.
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 Elk Grove Village 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.
