“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.”
“Angel is a great communicator. He takes such good care of my old pup. He find inventive things for her to do, to make her comfortable, and even encourage her to eat! So thankful for him!”
“Arlene is the best! I didn't worry about my little Ozzy at all. I think he had a vacation at her house! LOL I'll be asking her to watch my pup in the future for sure. Thank you, Arlene!”
“Christine dogsat my 12yo Yorkie mix for 3 days and he seemed well taken care of. She is very professional and sent countless photos, videos and updates throughout the day which I appreciated. She even sent a goody bag with Polaroid photo of my dog home with him, which was so sweet. Thanks Christine!”
“Amazing experience, this was my first time using rover and Kaira made the experience 10 times better. Very attentive, communicated thoroughly and provide pictures to keep me at ease. Will definitely be booking again”
“Great communication. Very friendly and wonderful with the pets (cat and dog). Felt very comfortable they were well taken care of during our week long vacation.”
“I love the attentiveness to all the fur babies and keeping them on a schedule - Katie and Teddy were playing with the others fur babies which is wonderful. These guys are my go-to boarders from this day forward 😊”
“Sophia & Andy sent plenty of photos during Shiloh’s stay and he looked very comfortable with them! Will definitely book with them again in the future! Thank you!”
“Ian is incredible — very professional, easy to communicate with pre-stay, and took wonderful care of our Leo! Especially appreciate the many many photos he shared, so we could see how much fun he was having!”
“Christian took such great care of Ralph!! He came home happy and tired. Christian kept me updated during Ralph’s stay and shared plenty of photos. I would definitely have Christian watch Ralph again!! Thanks, Christian!!”
“I’m really happy with their care. My dogs were happy and well care. Luci sent me a lot of photos and updates. I’ll definitely will book again. Thanks so much.”
“Everything went very well. Lucy seemed happy and well taken care of. Malchom, Nicole and kids do a great job letting Lucy be part of the family. I’m sure Lucy enjoys being with the children. Would definitely keep using their services.”
“Robert was great with my pup Maverick! He was able to watch him last minute for me, and would send me picture updates and let me know how he was doing, eating, and adjusting. Maverick got a lot of play time too and had a great time! I will definitely be using Robert again in the future!”
“Joe goes above and beyond to understand the pets in his care. Our dog happily goes to his home. Joe does a wonderful job communicating and sending pictures.”
“It was a pleasure having tanqueray look after my baby Mya . She kept me updated with Mya and took such great care of Mya . Mya has never been away from home before so I was a bit iffy at first but tanqueray made me feel so much more calm and relaxed. Definitely will be booking with her next week”
“Nina did a great job taking care of Benny! Benny went on daily long walks during his stay and Nina sent over a ton of adorable pictures and videos :) highly recommend!”
“This was my first time using Rover, and Samantha was utterly amazing caring for my dog, Guru, who was recently adopted from a shelter. Guru is very social, and her dogs got along wonderfully with him. Since Guru and I are still getting to know one another, it was so comforting to receive regular text, photo, and video updates on how he was doing. Samantha was extremely gracious, attentive, and understanding throughout the entire stay. I highly recommend her services!”
“Jackie is amazing. This is my third time using her and I couldn’t be happier. She sends tons of videos and updates, which really puts my mind at ease, and it’s obvious how well she takes care of Teddy. He’s always happy, relaxed, and clearly loved when he’s with her. I trust her completely and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who truly goes above and beyond.”
“Elizabeth and family spoiled our dog! They kept me in the loop the whole time he was with him! They walked him and were available last minute! They are the best❣️”

Yuliya was wonderful with my pups! She’s a phenomenal communicator and kept me updated with plenty of pictures while I was traveling. From the jump, it was easy to see that my boys were super comfortable with her and made themselves at home in lovely space. Thanks again, Yuliya!
Anette was so kind and wonderful. She kept me updated daily with photos and my dogs were so well taken care of while boarding! 10/10 would recommend her. One of my senior dogs has some health issues but Anette skillfully administered her daily medications, and kept me updated. I will definitely reach out again to rebook pet boarding with Anette in the future.
Luciano & Luciene S kept my 2 boston terriers, male 3 years and female 2 years, and I will definitely use them again. Took my doggos on several long walks (since my doggos like to sniff and mark a lot and look for squirrels) and sent me pictures daily. Doggos looked very happy in all the pics and were well kept when I picked them up. I also liked that they had bowls and toys so I didn't need to bring those. I highly recommend.
Cindy was amazing! She was very patient with me and my doggies! 4 dogs isn’t easy to handle but she was very understanding. I provided as much information as possible as well as videos of their routine to make it easy on Cindy and she helped me figure out the logistics in terms of how I would be able to send her the information since files were too large for average text. She also provided frequent updates and pictures which made me feel at ease! My very anxious dog wasn’t anxious when picking her up. I’m definitely planning on booking with her again soon for a much longer stay.
I’ve used Rob several times over the past couple of years to watch my two pups, and I couldn’t be happier with his care. He’s always great at communicating and keeps me updated, and my dogs always come home happy and well cared for. It’s such a relief knowing they’re in great hands while I’m away. Thanks so much, Rob!

There are 5,406 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Elmwood Park. About 91% of Elmwood Park 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.

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.

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.
