“This was my first time using Sharon and all went well. She sent photos and videos of Lily and took Lily on frequent walks. She was quick to respond to my texts. I really appreciate Sharon’s responsible and professional nature. And when I picked up Lily at the end of her stay, Sharon gifted her a bag of treats and toys and a thank you note! I will definitely use Sharon again.”
“I'm so grateful for Iman! My senior dog got sick the day before my trip; she was flexible with the drop-off time so that I could get him to the vet before bringing him over. I'm always anxious about leaving my dog if he's not feeling well, but Iman is so attentive and communicative I had total peace of mind while I was out of town. When I picked up my dog he was in a great mood and his appetite was coming back. Thanks so much Iman!!”
“Ana was an amazing host! Our dog, Kobe enjoyed his "vacation". Ana sent photos throughout his stay and that really was a pleasant surprise. Ana and her husband really love the service they provide and it shows. They care about accommodating your pet. Our family is so thankful for them.”
“Mercedes is a definite "God Send". Her enthusiasm and overall ability to have my Rocket feel like a family member is truly beautiful. Rocket gets excited when he knows he's going to see Mercedes. I will continue to have her take care of Rocket and recommend others to do the same if they are looking for a sitter equal to their love for their pet.”
About: Hi! I’m a Veterinary student with experience in animal behavior, dog training, pet handling, and more. I’m passionate about providing a safe, loving, and stress free environment for pets in my home. My veterinary education helps me recognize health concerns, understand animal body language, and ensure every pet receives attentive, knowledgeable care. I will care for your pets with all the love in my heart, treating them as if they were my own and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved throughout their stay. 🐾❤️ As a Veterinary student, pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. I am available to care for pets during both weekdays and weekends, and I can provide plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I live in a secure apartment building with controlled access and a safe environment. There are several nearby parks and walking areas where your pet can enjoy regular exercise, enrichment, and outdoor time. I typically accept only one pet (or pets from the same family) at a time. I do not board pets from different households together, which helps prevent conflicts, anxiety, and unnecessary stress. This allows me to give each pet my full attention and ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and at home during their stay.
“Amia,Joshua and family have been nothing but great to my baby Barry. He loves spending time over there, I definitely recommend them. They are the best fit for your fur baby 🙂”
“Once again a great stay for Max and an almost worry free trip for me.. I say almost because I always worry when I'm not with him but that's just me. He is well taken care of and I feel so fortunate to have found someone so caring . As long as they are willing I will continue to use their services.”
“Best experience ever. I was extremely nervous about leaving my dog at first, but Latasha made me feel comfortable. She was able to accommodate my last minute booking and sent photo updates throughout.”
“Lynda and her husband were super kind! We ended up having to book boarding for our dog super last minute and they were very flexible and happy to take her in for the day. Lynda meet us with a notebook in hand to take notes about how to care for our dog They took her on a nice long walk and tuckered her out. And they kept her until late at night so could enjoy our day/night worry free! Highly recommend!!”
“Jennifer was very professional and kept us up to date on the pups well being and what they were doing. Jennifer met us at convenient times and let us know what we needed to bring and made every attempt to please us and our pets.”
“This is perhaps my third or fourth time using Jesus for my dog Rex and I have been extremely satisfied. Animals generally show when they are happy being around certain people and Rex happily jumps to attention when he sees Jesus and his beautiful family. This stay was 6 days and I was really happy to receive pictures and see how happy Rex was spending time with this Sitter. If you are seeking the peace of mind that I have when leaving my dog with a Sitter then this is certainly the place you want to leave your pet. Jesus is clearly one of the Top Rated Sitters on this site.”
“Amy was AMAZING!!!!!! My dog was able to run outside, go on walks and car rides, he cuddled up on the couch. Amy gave me updates with pictures and videos, my family loved seeing how his vacation was going and we looked forward to seeing the friends he made”

“OUTSTANDING! Tootie had a wonderful time! Kathy sent pictures with funny comments. That should me Tootie was having a great time. That's important to me. Kathy was very thorough with the detailed care instructions. She asked questions for clarity. If you are in the Chicago area, please choose Kathy.”
“Five Stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We are beyond grateful for the incredible care Michelle and her family provided for our senior pup, Boots. She’s 15 years old, has several health issues, and requires a very specific medication routine—including liquid meds and multiple eye drops throughout the day. They were incredibly patient with her, attentive to every detail, and clearly took the time to understand her needs. I had never left Boots with a sitter before, but was at such ease leaving her with Michelle! We received regular updates and felt totally at ease knowing she was in such loving, capable hands. It’s rare to find someone who not only follows instructions but genuinely cares about the comfort and well-being of your pet. Boots came home relaxed and happy, which says it all. We will absolutely be booking with them again and recommend them without hesitation to anyone looking for thoughtful, dependable care for their fur baby—especially senior dogs with extra needs. Thank you so much for treating Boots like family!”
“Mariah was very attentive to Bella's needs. Bella felt comfortable and fit right into Mariah's home as if was her own. Mariah communicated with us on a regular basis. She sent videos and Pictures to keep us informed. She was definitely a 5 star sitter!!!”

Jennifer and her family make us very comfortable in leaving our leo with them. I love the way her children love on him. I have no worries when we are out of town. It feels as if I left him with a family member. Also she sends us several daily updates. Grateful we found her.
We're so glad we got Rachel to keep Winston. we've tried contacting her last summer but the timing wasn't right. When we finally did, we knew she was good. Winston really enjoyed himself and he looked like he was at home from the photos. We've felt so comfortable and happy from the contacts we've received from Rachel. Thanks again Rachel, you're a superstar.

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Hazel Crest on Rover is $32.68 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 Dog 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 4,790 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Hazel Crest. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
94% of Hazel Crest sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Hazel Crest landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Hazel Crest home-away-from-home, we recommend 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 Hazel Crest.
Tip: 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 Hazel Crest 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 Rover Guarantee , 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 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.
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.
