“Kimberly is a very capable and confident caregiver. Almost a dog whisperer. After we left town, she informed us that our pet didn’t take well to hers. She didn’t panic or pout to us. Just informed and managed it for 8 nights. Would use her again and recommend her highly!”
“Naomi was great!! She was very prepared and ready to learn about and to care for our dogs just the way they needed. Our dogs had the best time taking long walks, lounging, and looking out the big window. She took the time to introduce our dogs and Milo and they became great friends. The house was quiet, very clean, and perfect for our dogs. We loved seeing the daily photos while we were traveling. Definitely would recommend!”
“Laura and Vladimir were wonderful! They are so warm and true dog lovers. They took such good care of our puppy. They sent pictures and updates everyday. We will definitely use them again! Can’t say enough positive things about them. Highly recommend.”
“Obi seemed to really enjoy his stay with Brian! Obi is sensitive, so he will get sick from separation anxiety after I pick him up from a stay or he will be very clingy. He’s been completely normal since I’ve picked him up and he is doing perfectly fine! Brian provided me updates daily that eased my own separation anxiety. Thank you, Brian!”
“Ron and Jeff were very accommodating for our last minute booking. We really appreciate them giving our pup, Kona, extra attention and love while we welcomed a baby into our family. Our dog needed the getaway and he came home very happy. They are great about sending us updates and pictures! Kona loves seeing them.”
“Cristina was wonderful! Great communicator, flexible, and sent us updates as requested. Lincoln loved playing with Bear and came home happy! Highly recommend Cristina.”
“Sarah was absolutely amazing with Rocky! She treated him like he was part of her own family, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She stayed in constant communication, sent lots of pictures and updates, and it was clear from every message how much she genuinely cared about him. We never had to wonder how he was doing because she kept us informed every step of the way. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter and would gladly trust Sarah with Rocky again. Highly recommend!”
“Cynthia took great care of my dog Buddy and sent regular texts and photos. It was a special challenge since it rained almost every day! Since this was my first time boarding Buddy, I'm really grateful for attention to my pup!”
“This was Daisy’s first stay with Joe but it won’t be her last! Joe clearly loves dogs and that gave us peace of mind on our vacation. We loved the photos and videos he shared with us. It was great to see Daisy enjoying herself with him. I have no hesitation in recommending Joe.”
“I'm always nervous going out of town because our pup has some quirks. Maria was warm and welcoming and our dogs immediately hit it off. I felt relaxed the whole trip because I could see how much she loved dogs, and knew so much about their behaviors and interactions. We will definitely be booking her again!”
“Nic took such good care of Bailey! Nic was so responsive, sent so many pictures, and was so sweet! Bailey got so much love and went on so many walks! I would recommend Nic to anyone and everyone!”
“My first sit with Beryl and my pup and I couldn’t be happier! She was flexible, kind and energetic, and sent pictures regularly. Communication was great and Dory came home happy. 😊”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Hannah! She was an excellent communicator, sent us plenty of photos and updates, and was incredibly knowledgeable and attentive. We felt completely at ease knowing Milo was in such great hands, and he came home a very happy pup! We would absolutely recommend her and would happily book with her again!”
“I highly recommend Olga for her pet sitting services. She took amazing care of our dog, Zoey. She played with her and took Zoey on a lot of walks (which she loves). Her communication was great- she sent daily video and photo updates which gave us peace of mind… Zoey looked like she was having the best time. We can’t wait to have Olga watch Zoey again!”

“Claire took such good care of Grampa. Our guy is the sweetest peanut, but needs calm intentional attention especially in new environments due to early life trauma and (managed) separation anxiety. Claire was incredible at assuaging my concerns and helping me feel confident in trusting her. And Sushi was such a sweet little companion who Claire also clearly takes such loving care of with lots of training and support. Our guy was excited to see me when I picked him up but I’m no way was he pulling away from Claire’s home which is a huge sign for how comfortable he became in just 24 hours. Thank you thank you, Claire, for loving our buddy!”
“Irene and her family were very lovely and accommodating! She sent plenty of photos and it is clear that Murphy felt comfy and safe with them. Will book again!”
“Very friendly atmosphere. Took great care of my dogs, followed care instructions and sent updates. My dogs were not happy we picked them up lol. They were having too much fun with Huactemo. I highly recommend Huactemo if you’re looking to book your fur pals!”
“Frankie is a rescued breeder dog and has some head noise from his previous life, especially when it comes to cages and restraints. He also has separation anxiety when he spends time away from his new family. But every now and then we all need a vacation - right? Soooo happy to have found Suzanne, she was perfect to watch Frankie while we were away. Gentle, kind and patient, I could tell she really cared. She regularly sent pictures and corresponded. Couldn't have asked for a better boarding experience!”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Golf
Our dog absolutely loved his stay with Andrea and her family. We are a couple days out from him returning and he seems like he’s still missing his time there. You can tell Andrea and her kids care for the dogs. They have a secure fenced in backyard and it seems like our dog got to enjoy some time outdoors. We loved the updates and cute pictures she sent. We will use her again in the future. Thank you!
Lauren was wonderful with our little guy! She took great care of him, and we really appreciated her kindness and attention. He loves being around people, so it was comforting to know he was in good hands. We’re so grateful for her help and would definitely recommend her to other pet parents!
We’ve had our golden stay with Patricia and Ryan before and he always has the best time! They truly care for him and make sure he’s walked, fed and comfy! I love getting photo updates while he’s there and would recommend to anyone looking for a loving family to watch their pup.
Colleen was fantastic - took wonderful care of our 2 dogs and was great with communication and flexibility. We received regular updates with cute photos, and Colleen’s house is so well-equipped and dog-friendly with toys, beds, bowls, etc that we barely had to pack anything but food and leashes. Our dogs loved playing with her pups Teddy and Polly and came home smiling. They would love to come back!
Jennifer took care of our exuberant shepherd mix for a week while we were out of town. She was always communicative and flexible with dropoff and pickup. We never had any worries and he always is excited to visit Jennifer. We will definitely book with her again. Thank you, Jennifer!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Golf home-away-from-home, 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 Golf.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Golf 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 , 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 .
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.
