“I was new to Rover.com.....I'm also a first time dog owner. So, I was very nervous to leave my dog alone for the first time with a person we didn't know. But Judy, made EVERYTHING easier. From the first meeting to the drop off to the daily check-in's, she was kind and professional and loving to my little girl. She took excellent care of my dog and I would leave her with Judy again in a second!”

“We are so thankful for Melissa! A last minute change of plans left us scrambling to find someone to watch our Scooby Doo. Melissa was super accommodating and helpful. She made Scooby feel at home and we joked that he wasn’t going to want to come home. He immediately had a friendship with her dog Thor and her backyard gave him lots of room for zoomies. Scooby can be a handful, but we never once doubted that he was have as much fun on his vacation as we were on ours! She provided lots of pictures and videos, which made us so happy!

We’re so grateful and would absolutely book with her again!”

Willow loved her stay at Justine & Brett’s! She was reliable, communicative, and clearly loves animals. We received regular updates and photos. Our dog came home happy, relaxed, and very well cared for. We truly appreciated the extra attention and love she gave. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!
Such a lovely family who warmly embrace all dogs and their needs. My dog - Clipper - had a wonderful couple of nights there. They were in touch with cute photos and updates and were extremely gracious and welcomed Clipper for an extra night when my flight home was cancelled. I’ll definitely rebook with Amanda and Anton!
Rachel is amazing!! She kept in touch with us throughout the stay which I really appreciated it, she sent photos and in every photo Stella looked so happy and I knew she was having a blast. Will definitely book with Rachel again. Thank you so much for taking care of our Stella girl💓
Edgar helped us out last minute. He communicated during the entire two night stay, provided lots of pictures and updates and was patient and understanding with our dog since this was the first time we had left him with someone else. We appreciated everything he did for our dog and can’t recommend him enough! Thank you Edgar and his kids for loving our dog while we were gone!
Terri sent lots of updates and pics of my pup. She kept me updated on how things were going. This was the first time my pup stayed with someone she didn't know well. I was a little concerned my pup wouldn't take to a sitter. I was pleased that my pup took really well to Terri. I'd use Terri again and definitely recommend to my friends. Thank you!
Tori’s the kind of dog sitter who makes you wonder if your pup had a better vacation than you did. She’s on it with communication, super flexible with timing, and her dog Bodhi is Zen - probably more emotionally stable than your average human. The location is immaculate and perfectly situated (like three minutes off the highway), the fenced yard is awesome, the vibes are good, and my dog came home happy, tired, and maybe a little smug. 10/10 would book again.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Glen Ellyn
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of June 2026, there are 5,651 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Glen Ellyn. 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.
94% of Glen Ellyn 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 Glen Ellyn 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 Glen Ellyn 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 Glen Ellyn.
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 Glen Ellyn 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.
