“Kelly was absolutely amazing with our dog, Quincy! Quincy has an eye condition that requires an eyedrop every night before bed, and Kelly not only administered it every night but also messaged us afterward to let us know it was done, which gave us so much peace of mind. Throughout his stay, we received plenty of photos and videos, and Quincy got to play with Kelly’s dog, Maggie, every day. Maggie is truly the sweetest little host! We would absolutely send Quincy back to Kelly’s house in the future and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and attentive dog sitter!”
“As usual, my dog was taken care of well and allowed me to have confidence that he was okay while I was away. D'artagnan has such great skills with dealing with and handling canines, I'll continue to be a repeat customer because of the great service that he provides. 5 stars, will recommend!”
“Anna, took really great care of our Golden Retriever, Beau! I was pleased the find her taking him for a walk when I called to pick him up early. We appreciate her flexibility and love for dogs!”
“We had a great experience with Meghan! Freddy was happy, well cared for, and clearly received lots of attention while we were away. Communication was excellent throughout the stay, and we really appreciated the updates and photos. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands and would happily book again.”
“Is there a 10 star option? Katelyn and Andrew are the BEST. They took such amazing care of Fry. They took him on walks, they let him sleep wherever he wanted, and they asked the most thoughtful questions. Would recommend without hesitation.”
“Caroline treats our pups like her own. She is great with pairing Lady and Jazzi with other dogs. Very caring and considerate. Will definitely use her services in future!”
“Julia helped us with a last minute weekend stay for our senior dog. She sent daily pictures with updates about how he was doing. She’s had a senior dog herself and was familiar with his medicine and was able to give the pills without a problem. Her home had no stairs, which was perfect for our dog since he has arthritis. She lives in a beautiful, quiet, safe neighborhood with minimal traffic and sidewalks perfect for walks.”
“Megan was amazing! We had to go out of town unexpectedly and Megan was able to accommodate us last minute. One of our pups started to have stomach issues the night before and thought I’d have to cancel but Megan was more than willing to care for our pup and administered his medication. She gave great updates and really treated them like her own. Both our pups loved playing with their pup, Cooper, and had a great time. I would highly recommend Megan and will be using her for future dog sitting needs. Copper and Penny were sad to leave! Thank you so much!”
“Frank loved his time with Bob and had so much fun with the other dogs. Bob was always in communication and sent frequent updates with pictures of Frank playing. I'd definitely recommend!”
“Despite short notice due to a family emergency, Julie and Mark has accommodated Toby. Toby was well cared and had a great time staying with them. We will use them again.”
“We had another wonderful experience with Kelly. Charlie stayed with her and her pups for the weekend-and it just happened to be Charlies 3rd Birthday. She went above and beyond celebrating him with homemade dog-friendly cupcakes, which was so thoughtful and adorable. It gave us such peace of mind that he was not only looked after but truly cared for. Once again he came home happy, healthy and relaxed. We are very grateful for the extra effort Kelly put in to make his Birthday special!! Highly recommend her to anyone.”
“One word for Melissa….Amazing. Now a few more words why. Melissa took such perfect care of our cat Toewz. He was so happy and she kept us in the loop while out of the country with so many adorable pics. Melissa is a sweetheart, caring, smart and professional. She knows how and without a doubt love your pet the way they deserve. She also has a wonderful and large home which is always a bonus. Thanks Melissa. Toewz or our dog Ozzy will see you again soon enough Dave”
About: I've had cats and dogs since childhood, so I have a life-long experience with dogs of different sizes and breads, German shepherd, Husky, Chihuahua, at this moment I have a wonderful maltipoo kind of bread. I’m currently not employed and can take care of our small friends full time. Usually waking up at 7:30 and going to bad at 10:30 if the schedule for walking different I can fit it into mine and make adjustments. I live in apartments on 1-st floor, but don't have a fenced yard. Right by my building locates a good walking zone for dogs, the area is treated for ticks.
“Gage was responsive in a timely fashion and sent me picture updates! He even introduced my dog to a cat (Gage’s cat) for the first time and the cat loved my dog’s energy so much, his cat decided to snuggle with my dog on the bed. So adorable! Thank you, Gage!”
“It was a pleasure having Ace with Raagini and her family. Ace was well taken care off and we had regular updates with picture’s throughout the stay. We will be happy to use Raagini’s service again.”
“I am delighted to provide a well-deserved five-star review for Diana who cared for Luna. She went above and beyond to ensure my dog felt loved and comfortable during her stay. Diana’s reliability and excellent communication made me feel at ease throughout the entire process. I highly recommend her services to anyone seeking top-notch care for their beloved pets.”
“We were very happy to find Susan on Rover to watch our 13 year old dog, Java. She and her husband (and dog Duncan) made Java feel right at home! We got regular photos and updates while we were away, and Java didn’t look like she was missing us at all. We would definitely book with Susan again. Thank you!”

There are 4,003 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Hawthorn Woods. About 91% of Hawthorn Woods 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 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 Meet & Greet.
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.
