Jen and her family are terrific. They treat my dog as if she was part of their family. I am lucky to have found her. I highly recommend her as an outstanding dog sitter.

Emily and family treated our Briggs like their own. They went on walks, cozied up by the fire and had a sleepover in the living room because he can’t get up stairs very well. I was sent pictures and he looked happy and content! We will be sure to give Emily a call next time we need someone to watch Briggs!

Julia did a wonderful job caring for my two cats for five days. She’s very knowledgeable about cat behavior and kept me updated with messages and pictures, which gave me great peace of mind. She was also kind, flexible, and easy to communicate with. I would definitely book her again!

This was Medea's second time staying with Derek, and she clearly had just as good a time as the first! She came home extremely tired and content, so I know she played a lot. Derek always sends prompt and detailed updates, so I know she's in good hands when we send her there.

If I could give 10 stars I would! Carla and her family were such a great match for our two dogs. Our 2 girls came home happy & tired. The dogs got even more love, attention and exercise than normal and Carla gave me so many updates while I was away. As a pet parent we will 100% be using her again as it was one of the best experiences we've had and we had the best piece of mind while we were gone.

Our 15 month old Maltipoo had never spent a night apart from us and had limited interaction with other dogs. We had a need for an overnight stay and decided to try Rover which led us to Emily and Thomas as they lived close by. We are so very thankful that we found them! They spent three days in a week leading up to the stay having Charlie come over for walks and spent time inside their place trying to get him used to a new environment. They were so patient with him and so kind to him. They sent pictures and videos to help reassure us that he was doing well. They really went above and beyond in every way and we can recommend them highly enough! We can’t wait to have them sit with Charlie again later this summer and have him play with Monster! Thank you, Emily and Thomas!

This was our first time our Goldendoodle (80lbs) stayed with her and her dog. They played well and she took great care of him. We appreciate Niratcha sending us daily pictures in the morning and night to see how Kipper was doing. Happy with her and we just rebooked with her. Thank you.

Jeannie and her family were wonderful with our big guy Murphy! He has a pretty complicated medical issue and Jeannie went above and beyond to make sure he stayed healthy during his stay with her! We loved the updates and felt like he was truly in great hands. Will 100% book again! Thanks Jeannie!

Ashley was great! She responded to my request almost immediately, was able to take care of my puppy upon very short notice, and she sent me cute pictures and videos throughout his short stay. I will definitely request Ashley again if we need a sitter.

Jackie was our savior for a last minute booking. She took in our puppy Luna for a few days. I can tell Luna was well cared for and had fun. Jackie was very communicative and answered my text in a timely fashion. We will definitely be using her services again! Thank you Jackie and your family for making Luna feel right at home. 💖🐾

About: Skilled Dog Walker with 1+ year of experience in providing reliable and safe walks for a variety of breeds. Well-versed in developing positive relationship with pets and owners. I’m currently work full-time during the weekdays but I do have some time boarding dogs for the weekend. I’m always free to take a good care of dogs for weekends when their owner needs some break or out of the town! I live in a house with a huge fenced in backyard with a lot of space for the dogs to play around. I also have two dogs, they get along with any dogs! I also do enjoy taking dogs for a long walk nearby the neighborhood for some fresh air.

FAQs for Boarding - Garden Prairie

Frequently asked questions about Rover

There are 500 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Garden Prairie. About 95% of Garden Prairie 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.
