“We were very pleased with Debbie W. The setup is welcoming for a new dog, as long as the dog is friendly with other dogs, as ours is. They have a big fenced-in yard so that the dogs can spend lots of time outdoors. Debbie sent us lots of updates while our dog with staying with her, so that we were reassured the dog was doing well. This included how she ate and slept, which are the two most important pieces of information.”

He felt we didn't have to worry at all. We are so happy we chose Hailey to watch our family member. We recommend her to anyone who wants to feel carefree when they have to leave their pet behind.”

“Karen and Donald are very nice people and I instantly felt comfortable leaving my pup with someone for the first time during our meet and greet. We received multiple daily updates with pictures. When we came to pick him up, he was excited to go home but made sure to give Karen & Donald kisses before we left. So I knew he was definitely in good hands while we were gone. He clearly had a great time with them, and surprisingly (in a good way) he is more behaved when we brought him home. Will definitely be using Karen & Donald again in the future.”

“I can’t say enough good things about Dawn and my dog Milo’s 8 day stay. First off he’s young, just shy of 4 months, so we had concerns that he’d be a handful for anyone. Dawn’s love for dogs and in depth knowledge is clear in every interaction. Milo came back so well behaved it was amazing. Each day we were away we got multiple pictures detailing his playtime with the other dogs and her adorable sons. She continuously made us feel confident in our decision to leave Milo. I would leave Milo again without hesitation. She’s a pro with heart. Thanks again Dawn!!”

“Adam was wonderful with Scout! I was a little nervous about boarding him since he usually stays with family, but Adam and his family truly made it feel like he was staying with relatives of his own. He sent regular updates and pictures throughout Scout's stay, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Every photo showed Scout looking happy, comfortable, and cozying up to everyone. It was clear he was getting plenty of attention and affection. When we picked Scout up, he was happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for. Adam made it so easy to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing Scout was in great hands. We're incredibly grateful for the care he provided and would absolutely trust him with Scout again in the future!”

About: I have cared for pets since I was a a child. My first pet chose me when I was about 5 years old. When I stayed with my babysitter, I would play with their cat all day. The babysitter gave me Tiger because they saw how much I loved her. Ever since then I cared for dogs and cats. I walj my dogs every day weather permitting. I bathe and brush them when needed. My little guys love playdates and are sooo friendly. I am currently retired, so I can provide exceptional care. I spend lots of time in my big fenced in yard, and eager to play fetch. Lots of playtime. I have so many toys. Big fenced yard and lots of time for running around. I also have a doggy door so all the fur babies can go out and in as much as they like.

“If Rover allowed us to give 100 stars, we’d give every single one to Deanna. Wimble isn’t “just our dog.” He’s our family, our best friend, our service dog, and one of the stars of our Amazon Prime TV series The Ghost Finders. Because of that, trusting someone else with his care has never been something we take lightly. Then we found Deanna. From the moment she came into Wimble’s life, it was obvious she had a truly special gift. She has an incredible ability to connect with dogs in a way that’s difficult to describe. Wimble absolutely adores her, and seeing the excitement on his face whenever he sees her tells us everything we need to know. Deanna doesn’t just care for Wimble, she loves him. She has become his trainer, his handler on set, his biggest cheerleader, and someone we trust completely. Whether she’s working with him, taking him on adventures, or simply giving him affection and reassurance, she always treats him as if he were her own. As television producers, our schedules can be hectic and unpredictable, but we’ve never once worried when Wimble is with Deanna. That’s one of the greatest gifts anyone can give a pet owner: complete peace of mind. Her professionalism, reliability, patience, compassion, and genuine love for animals are second to none. She consistently goes above and beyond, and we honestly can’t imagine a better person to have in Wimble’s life. Deanna has become more than a Rover sitter to us. She’s become part of Team Wimble and part of our extended family. Thank you, Deanna, for loving our boy as fiercely as we do, for helping him grow, and for always treating him with such kindness and respect. We are more grateful than words can express. Anyone lucky enough to have Deanna care for their dog should consider themselves incredibly fortunate. She is simply the very best. ❤️🐾”

My wife and I are very protective of our little dachshund Wella. When we read Julie's first response to our request, we knew right away that she and her family were the mature and responsible people we could trust to watch our dog. Julie sent multiple updates and photos to us while she had Wella, and that was very nice and reassuring. They did so great with Wella that she seemed to want to stay longer! The kids played so much with Wella that she needed to sleep in the next day! Great experience with Julie and her family and We are looking forward to using her again !!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Hickory Hills

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 208 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Hickory Hills. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.

96% of sitters in Hickory Hills can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Hickory Hills 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 Hickory Hills.

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 Hickory Hills 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 PA 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.
