“We had an amazing first stay with Rachael. After 1 week my dog decided she is also part of the family. He was well taken care of and so happy in all the photos she sent. We will be booking with her again for sure!”
“Nicole and Tim were absolutely great! Good communicators and sent photos and updates throughout our dogs stay. She can be a little particular but settled in immediately and it felt like she got her own vacation while we were on ours. Will definitely book them again!”
“Kelly took wonderful care of my dog, Jeze, and I couldn’t be more grateful! Jeze can be a bit particular about eating but Kelly went above and beyond and hand fed her. Kelly was patient, attentive, and clearly experienced with animals. She kept me updated with photos and messages, and it was obvious that Jeze was happy and comfortable. I had total peace of mind while I was away, and I would absolutely trust Kelly again. Highly recommend!”
About: I managed a facility where I was in charge of boarding dogs of all sizes and taking care of them for about 3 years. I also occasionally volunteer at animal shelters and I love each and every single dog so much! I’m trained in giving medication, bathing, feeding and taking care of the over all health of your dog. I also do well with most aggressive dogs. I’d love so much to meet your pets :) I work a full time job, and I am off every day by 2pm. My job is flexible, so I can also leave early whenever I want. I enjoy having lots of daylight left when I get off work so I can walk and take care of dogs! I have 2 dogs who LOVE making new friends. I have a big fenced backyard that is perfect for the pups to run around. We play outside often and go for lots of walks!
“Thanks for looking after Skylar! She was wore out when she got home. Slept the whole evening and night 😂. Thanks for photos and videos of her. I will definitely use your service again”
“We had a fairly short notice trip and needed to leave our two dogs for a week. We took them for a daycare first the week before, and they were super excited to go back when we dropped them off for trip.”
“Five plus stars! Dustin and Margaret and their children were great with our two dogs. They were able to devote their time to playing and snuggling with our dogs who seemed quite well and happy after a week there. We are so thankful that we found a loving family to take great care of our pups!”
“I really appreciate Mauricio taking the time to watch my Pup. He was super responsive to messages. And more importantly: I understand as someone who has used Rover for over 110 times over the last 10 years for my pup, the importance of making sure there is a safe trip between the pup and the owner. After having moved to St louis, it's nice to find someone who's reasonable and timely and they're willingness to communicate and book watching a pup. I highly recommend Mauricio!”
“I can’t thank Caitlin and Adam enough for how they took care of our 9 month puppy for two weeks!! I was anxious to be gone that long from him, but their set up was perfect and Caitlin’s communication was so great. We were able to relax and fully enjoy our trip knowing our pup was in capable and caring hands. Thank you SO much!!”
“Mika and her family were great with Rambeau. He looked happy and content. We enjoyed Rambeau's daily pictures and short video updates while we were out of town. And I hope to use them again. :-)”
“Janey takes good care of my dog Lucy. She is very attentive. She takes her for walks. Lucyenjoys playing with her children and especially with her dog Koko. She sends pictures and communicates well. I never worry when I have to leave her with Jenay. My mind is at ease.”
“Ursula was AMAZING!!! I needed help at the last minute for a full 19 days! Ursula took in my puppy and treated her like family. I received photos and updates everyday. Ursula is kind, professional, flexible and a true animal lover. 5 solid stars:)”
“Adolfo, is the best Rover I’ve had. I feel very lucky to have found him. My pup Katniss always comes back worn out from playing with his pups! When I dropped her off for her last overnight, she almost pulled me to the ground trying to run inside!”
“Shari provided a wonderful environment and loving care for our dog, Poppy. Poppy was relaxed at her home and excited to see Shari the second time we booked her. She sent us cute photos and updates and made us feel that Poppy was in the best hands. We will definitely book Shari again!”
“This is our third time having Sara watch Ernie and we can’t thank her enough for taking such great care of him. He loves getting to be around other dogs and play a bunch, and we appreciate how flexible she is when our plans shift. Thanks again Sara!”

Alicia was wonderful. She communicated with me daily with pictures of Whiskey playing with Otis inside and outside. Alicia was flexible when we picked him up, as we were traveling with weather. We plan to use her again, as I think she enjoyed Whiskey as much as Whiskey enjoyed her.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
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.

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.
