“Margaret was AMAZING!!! I need someone to watch my Bentley boy last minute and she was the perfect match! Very communicative and sweet. He came home nice and tired lol thanks to her doggy for all the wonderful play time ! I definitely will be rebooking with her! Highly recommend! 💙”
“Matt was wonderful! He is very polite and accomodating. I am a bored fur baby mom; I spoil my dogs and know it! Matt gave me detailed status reports on them every day I was gone along with better pictures than I can ever manage of them as well! It always put a smile on my face reading about their adventures every morning. I 100% recommend, and while I usually travel with them, I will reach out to him again next year when I travel overseas.”
“Judith is the best! She always does a great job watching my dog and goes above and beyond. Always gives frequent updates and has great communication. She clearly cares a lot about the animals she is taking care of.”
“Oh man this was Ke'o second time to stay with them and he had so much fun that when I came to pick him up, he went straight to their dog bed instead of me. Their kids really enjoyed having him according to the sitter. They're a great family and I highly recommend them for their exemplary services. Thank you Mr. Brian and Mrs. Abigail for taking care our furrikid.”
“We sure got the gold medal 🥇with Shelly. She took such great care of Lexi. We loved receiving the videos and photos each day. It was so nice to get these updates. We look forward to rebooking soon. Thanks again!”
“Champ had a great time on his staycation with Morgan and Eric. They took great care of him and gave me regular updates. I appreciated the clear communication and sweet photos!”
“Sarah was AWESOME. We were gone for 9 nights. She sent pictures every day. I swear, my one dog Marla was smiling in them. She boarded one other dog while mine were there, and they looked like they were having the time of their lives! They slept for 3 days after they got home. They were exhausted but in a good way. I will definitely ask Sarah to keep my fur babies again in the future. Thanks Sarah!”
“Laura was such an amazing host with watching my dog Aspen for a few days while I was out of town. It’s hard to find a sitter but Laura didn’t hesitate to take my dog in, I got tons of videos/pictures of my dog and updates as well! Such a wonderful experience and I’ll be sure to book with her again!”
“Lesley was great! My dogs loved playing with her dogs while they stayed in her home. She was responsive, accommodating, and responsible. I would recommend booking with her!”
“Thank you so much, Annie. It is obvious our pet loved staying with Annie. We appreciate the peace of mind of having our pet stay in a comfortable and loving home. We enjoyed the pictures and updates throughout our trip away from our pet as well. We recommend Annie for sure.”
“Dave and his wife did such a fabulous job with Hank. We can’t thank them enough for watching him for us. It is nice to know he is being well takin care of while we are out of town.”
“Excellent pet sitter! She boarded our puppy for two nights and took great care of her. Our puppy came home happy, healthy, and well-loved. Great communication and a caring environment. Highly recommend!”
“Tre’Ana was a wonderful sitter for my puppy. It was extremely last minute and she was so patient and caring for my last minute trip and did an amazing job of taking care of my pup. The pictures she sent of my pup and giving me updates you can see how happy he was in her home. I highly recommend her services. With the global computer outage I was running late to pick up my puppy and she stayed up late and was incredibly patient with me. She went above and beyond for a stranger like me and for my dog which is incredibly important so I thank you Tre’Ana for being such a great care taker. I plan on using her again for my trip this week. I recommend you do the same if you want excellent professional care.”
“This was my first time using Rover and I must say I have absolutely no regrets! From day one, Leah was amazing! She was super responsive, warm and welcoming. I was so nervous to leave my cat Shai, as cats can sometimes struggle outside of their homes, but from the moment I let Shai out of the carrier, he was on the go! That let me know I made the right decision. Her kids were so gentle with him as well, which was another indication of a loving, safe environment. I am so grateful and thankful for meeting these wonderful group of woman. This will be my go to for pet sitting from now on! Thank you all so much!”
“Tina and her husband were wonderful caretakers for our sweet terrier Lilly. They were so welcoming when we got there. Their setup was perfect. They had a fenced back yard. They also took her on walks, brushed her, doted on her, let her sleep with them and made her feel so at home that when we came to pick her up she wanted us to come in instead of running out to the car as usual. She wanted all her peeps to be together. That is true testimony to the wonderful experience she had. Tina also kept us updated every couple of days with photos and gave us a full report when we came to pick up. Our girl had no problems so no more reporting was required. We were delighted with their services!”
“This was my first time using Rover. I was a little nervous, but Nicole was very kind, responded very quickly. Gave me updates with a video! It was a last-minute booking for Fourth of July, and she was very accommodating to me and my dog, which I really appreciated the ladder. Highly recommend!! 😊”
“I am so grateful for this family taking care of my pup!! He was so happy in every picture they sent and they sent me updates on him everyday! We will definitely be coming back!”
“Sarah was very communicative, sending texts and pictures. She gave our dog extra treats and made sure he was eating well. She provided ways to cool down on the hot summer days with baby pools and frozen treats.”

There are 1,077 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Granite City. About 92% of Granite City 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.

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.
