“Repeat customer. Diane takes great care of our Princess and we are very happy with her dog sitter services. We can travel with peace of mind knowing our dog is being well cared for by Diane.”
“I cannot recommend Annie enough! This was my first time leaving my dog Zeus with her, and I was completely at ease the entire time. She and her husband are incredibly kind people who clearly have a passion for dogs. I received frequent messages and photo updates, which I appreciated so much. Best of all, my dog got along with theirs—it was like a little vacation for him, too! I will absolutely be booking with her again in the future. If you’re looking for a sitter who treats your dog like their own, look no further. Annie is fantastic.”
“Gage was super awesome and attentive with Ramona’s care. He gave us constant updates and pictures while we were gone. His dog was super friendly with Ramona, and even sent me videos of them both playing together. Gage will definitely be our first option on our next trip!!”
“Tommy and Julie are absolutely amazing! Came to them at very last minute with our 3 pups while visiting Chicago for my son’s Navy graduation and they were so kind and welcoming. They constantly gave updates and sent photos and kept us informed of how our girls were doing. We will definitely be recommending them to other Navy families and using them again in the future. Thanks Tommy and Julie! ♥️”
“Jill sent me daily photos of my dog enjoying her stay. The daily contact was wonderful. Having my dog in a home environment with other people and dogs to socialize with was excellent. Mia will be back to stay with Jill the next time we leave town.”
“Dickson was absolutely wonderful with Zeus and our puppy, Gaia. We received pictures and videos throughout out vacay and we did not worry about the doggies at all. The big back yard was wonderful for them to run around. We will definitely be using Dickson again.”
“We were really happy with our decision to have Monica care for our two dogs during a weekend away. She was super responsive, flexible, and accommodating and it was obvious she loves animals and took very good care of them. Her house is very clean with lots of places for the dogs to relax, and her fenced backyard was perfect for playtime. Highly recommend!”
“Christine is an excellent sitter, and I look forward to booking her again. My dog, Bentley, is my world and this was the first time, he was going to stay with a non-relative. I was nervous how he would do, but after returning from my vacay, I brought home a happy & healthy dog. His overall demeanor was enough for me to know that he was well taken care of and looked after. Also, Christine’s dog, Chloe is a sweet gentle gal, and it was easy for Bentley who has only-child syndrome to get along with her.”
“Melody was fabulous. Can’t say enough great things about her. She sent multiple pics and kept us updated. Our pup was very happy and quite thrilled to stay with her! Would recommend to anyone:)”
“Jayne lovingly took care of my baby Kensie and gave daily updates on his eating and bathroom habits alongside some of the best photos of him! Super communicative and fastest response rate I've experienced at Rover.com. She is a real find!”
“JoAnne is the best! She provided updates and pictures throughout the stay. Ralph had a blast with the whole family and was spoiled with Hunny play time and snuggles. We will continue to come back to JoAnne as long as she provides the service. Thank you!”
“Lorena is absolutely WONDERFUL! She will be my first choice from now on. I could tell she really loved my girl Fiona while I was away and did everything to make Fiona happy. Fiona came home happy, healthy, safe, and with a new friend. I can't thank you enough!”
“Judy is amazing! She made our dog right at home. She also sent daily pictures so that we could see what our pup was up to while we were on vacation. I would highly recommend Judy to anyone.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Grayslake
We had a wonderful experience with our dog sitter Vianeth! She was incredibly responsive, accepted our dogs on short notice, and made the entire process stress-free. She kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dogs were well cared for and happy. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy dog sitter. We will definitely book with her again!
My dogs had a wonderful time staying with Angela and her family. The younger one especially played with her dogs from morning to night, and came home good and tired. Angela sent both pictures and video so I could see how they were doing. I didn’t worry about them the entire time. Thank you Angela and family!
Our experience was wonderful. Our dog had the best time staying with Jordan, getting lots of love, interactions, and playtime. Jordan made it really easy for us to have a relaxing vacation, knowing that our dog was taken care of. Our pup (and family) is so glad to have found a new friend!
Elisa is truly caring nature, and I felt totally at ease leaving my baby with her. She treats your dog like it’s part of her own family, and on top of that, her home is spotless! She also kept me posted with texts and photos though out each day. I will continue working with Elisa and happy I found her and Fiona (her dog). ✨✨✨
Yolanda and her Husband are great. Hunter felt right at home and loved. They asked for suggestions when needed and assisted when I suggested hand feeding cuz hunter wouldn't eat. I was able to go camping and know hunter was being cared for like he was home with his momma. They even provided picture updates. Will definitely recommend and return.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Grayslake on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 1,800 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Grayslake. About 92% of Grayslake 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.
