“This was our first experience using Rover, and Sarah made it easy! She was very thorough and made sure to provide frequent updates and pictures. Winston seemed to have a great time! Would definitely use again.”
“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! 💙”
“Wonderful experience with a genuinely caring sitter! Carol provided excellent care for my two cats while my family and I were on an extended trip out of town. The kitties received lots of attention and interaction while we were away. Carol provided pictures and updates during the cat’s stay with her. Overall, they were very happy and content in their new environment. I absolutely recommend Carol for anyone needing cat sitting services.”
“Shannan did a great job taking care of my dog, our dogs got along great together. She sent updates daily of how he was doing, I will definitely be bringing him back when I need a sitter! Your pet will be in great hands here.”
“Stacie was amazing with our pups! We had another dog sitter cancel the day before we were supposed to leave and she was able to keep them last minute. She kept us up to date and sent us pictures! Will definitely be using her again!”
“Ashley and her family were such good hosts for my doodle, Herman. He is a 1.5 year old big baby. It was evident in the photos and correspondence while I was away that he was getting all the attention he was used to—and more! Ashley was very responsive throughout Herman’s 6 night stay. I highly recommend letting her watch and care for your fur-baby too!”
“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 entire process was new to us and we were worried about leaving our baby boy with an unknown stranger. Erin was willing to talk and answer any questions I had prior to dropping champ off. She's extremely kind and is the best dog sitter around. She took great care of champ and loved on him just like he was her own. Champ stayed with her for a whole week and throughout his stay she consistently sent pictures and he looked so happy and relaxed in her home. He became best friends with her little guy and they would cuddle at night together . Erin is fantastic and we will continue to use her anytime we go out of town.”
“Elaine was superb! She was quick to respond with booking, she was welcoming upon our arrival and she sent text with pictures to keep us informed on his status. I was at ease knowing our cat was in Elaine’s care. She and her family offered him a warm and safe environment. Highly recommend!”
“Memphis loved her boarding experience with Aurora! I was sent with pictures, videos, and updates throughout the stay which was greatly appreciated. We will definitely be booking with Aurora again!”
About: I’ve been a dog sitter and worked with dogs for 4 years now. I have experience with large and small dogs. Along with this I have a golden retriever dog who is 6 years old who I have trained since he was 10 weeks old. He is a very social dog and loves all animals and people! I currently work part time! So I am able to be at home more often. With the free time on my hands I would love to care for your animals while you are away! While I don’t have a fenced yard I have a lead! I have a pretty open yard so lots of space to run around. Along with this I take my dog on walks every day to get all the energy out!!
“Loya was great watching our dog while we were on vacation! Milo has a separation anxiety, she took good care of him and spoil him. She sends us pictures and video daily. Will definitely ask her again to watch Milo!”
“Marieta and her family were wonderful! She did a pre-visit to put us at ease and was so loving to our dog. She regularly sent updates with pictures and was super easy to communicate with. Highly recommend!!”
“Shonte was absolutely amazing! I didn’t have to worry about my pups at all, they were definitely in great hands. She kept us updated with photos & videos throughout the day. She really went above & beyond any expectations. Great experience! I would 10/10 recommend!”
“Chelsey took excellent care of my dog. She sent lots of pictures and updates on how she was doing. My dog had tons of fun with Chelsey and honestly seemed sad to leave her. I would definitely book her again !”
“Alex and her family were amazing! She was extremely easy to work with and communicate with. I was almost afraid Cooper would want to stay with them after his two week visit. Photos came regularly. Honestly, she was the best and only rover sitter we will ever use again! Thank you, Alex!”
“Stephanie was a wonderful sitter! She accepted a last minute booking for our two dogs and kept us updated throughout the whole time we were gone. Our dogs were very well taken care of and we will certainly be boarding with Stephanie again!”
“If you’re looking for a dog sitter who goes above and beyond, Keri is it. She watched my pup recently and absolutely knocked it out of the park. When my flight got canceled last minute, Keri didn’t even blink—she just handled it. She made an extra trip to get food for my dog without me even asking, and stayed in close contact the entire time. I got photos and videos almost every day (sometimes multiple times), and I never once had to wonder how things were going. No other sitter I’ve used has ever been this proactive, thoughtful, and communicative. Keri is the kind of sitter you hope you’ll find but rarely do. She’s a total gem.”

Tammy and her husband are fantastic. They have a great set up for the dogs and they obviously care about the dogs they watch. This was my second time having them watch Bayer and he was so comfortable going over there that it really took all the worrying out of boarding him. Tammy responds quickly and communicates well and that really offers peace of mind during the whole process.

There are 455 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Highland. About 95% of Highland 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.
