“Eniya was super responsive and attentive with our pup! She sent updates and pictures without having to ask. We would recommend Eniya to any of our friends and have already booked another stay.”
“I can’t say enough good things about Angelica! My shih tzu is a nervous boy with special needs and Angelica was so wonderful to him. She took expert care of his eye (he needs one cleaned a certain way) and was so good to him when an unexpected thunderstorm rolled through on one of the nights he was staying with her (he absolutely hates thunder). Her home is set up perfectly for dogs, too. I can’t possibly recommend her enough!”
“Connie is very loving and sweet with our dog. She always has a great time playing with Connie’s dogs, it’s like a sleep away camp for her! Connie is very good at communicating and works with you on scheduling pickup and drop off times. We have had our dog stay with Connie three times and will continue to come back!”
“We are so grateful to have found a trusted caregiver for Wiggles! Tamara is so incredibly nice and flexible when we had an unforeseen circumstance change our plans. Wiggles had such a good time playing with her friends, we were worried she was disappointed to come home! Thank you Tamara, Maggie, and Paulie!”
“Took such good care of our dog! We got lots of photo updates, which helped reassure us. She was able to accommodate all of our dog’s weird quirks and mannerisms, I could tell she ready my notes and applied those to their time together. Will absolutely use again!”
“Baily did an outstanding job taking care of our little Greta (6 years old pug/boston terrier mix rescue). She kept us updated on Greta's stay with her and it was obvious from the updates and accompanying photos that Greta was feeling right at home and being showered with affection by Baily.”
“Jo’ell watched our dog for five nights and sent us pictures every day and provided updates with how he was doing. We would def feel comfortable using her again to watch our dog.”
“Shirley was absolutely amazing with our older pup! He had an amazing time. Shirley went above and beyond to make sure our pups needs were met and that he was happy. She sent pictures and videos and gave us updates regularly. Shirley was the best! Would use her again and would definitely recommend her to others!”
“Skipper had the best time with Katherine, Cory and the fam! She enjoyed playing with their dogs Brownie and Mocha so much she didn’t even want to come home after her stay! I received so many cute updates and pics and felt very calm knowing my baby was in great hands!”
“We had such a wonderful experience, this was our second time leaving Korra with Kim, and once again she was amazing. She took excellent care of Korra, and her communication was great, which gave us complete peace of mind. Kim truly went above and beyond; she even got Korra a Christmas gift, which meant so much to us. We’re incredibly grateful and would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Barbara was great as always. Barbara was able to make some last minute accommodations for us as a result of a last minute change with our schedule. We know our Bailey is in good hands with Barbara when we travel and gladly use her services again.”
“If you want someone who really takes the time to make sure he’s giving your fur baby a home away from home, Tim is your guy! I booked Tim for his dog boarding services from Sept 28 thru Sept 29th as I had a quick overnight gig in PA. Tim is extremely responsible and even took the time to set up a phone call WAY ahead of my travel dates to work out any extra details. It was so nice this past week to just be able to focus on my work and travel logistics and not have the added stress of worrying about Angel. Even though I was only gone one night, I received several photos and updates during her stay with Tim. It was obvious that she not only found a new friend, but I found a reliable and loving new sitter that I will definitely be using in the future.”
“Kept me informed the whole trip after taking Anubis on such short notice. He was happy and almost seemed like he didn’t want to leave. He also came back to me with a gift, a homemade bandana with his name on it. 10/10 service, will recommend and use again!”
“Sarah was great. She took very good care of my dog and cat and kept me updated with photos and recaps of their activities. She obviously loves animals and I felt my boys were very safe in her care--I recommend her highly.”
“My first sit with Beryl and my pup and I couldn’t be happier! She was flexible, kind and energetic, and sent pictures regularly. Communication was great and Dory came home happy. 😊”
“Michelle did a wonderful job caring for my puppy, Mabel. She was an excellent communicator, kept me updated and sent the cutest photos throughout Mabel's stay. As anyone with a puppy knows, they can be full of energy and a little chaotic at times, but Michelle handled Mabel's craziness with patience and confidence.”
“Angel took such great care of our golden Rosie when she stayed with him for a week! She came back home tired and happy. Angel was great about providing us with updates and lots of pictures and videos so we could tell Rosie was having a great time with him and his resident pups. Would definitely recommend Angel!”
“Julia is the best! Our dog Brandy is always so excited to get to her house!! She loves playing with her dog Bambina and we love knowing she’s in great hands!”
“Fantastic dog sitter! Took great care of our dogs and kept us updated with regular messages and photos throughout their stay. We felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. Highly recommend!”

This is our second time having our dog stay with Barbara. She is amazing, and we feel confident having her care for our doodle. We especially love her amazing communication, the photos ever 3+ times/day, and ease of working with her. Lindey looks forward to her next visit with Barbara!
Malchom provided great care of my girl while we were away for 2 weeks. They treated her like a member of the family and I know she loved being with them! Thru sent daily updates and photos, much appreciated, and she came home happy and worn out- the perfect combo! Will certainly book with them again!
Harlem had the best time with Haley and Skipper. He got to play in the yard, go to the dog park, and he got lots of cuddles and belly rubs. I received numerous photos and videos each and every day, and it let me enjoy my trip without worrying one bit about his well being. Haley is the absolute best person to care for any dog.
Jacqueline was absolutely amazing. She helped us with our dog while we were traveling for my brother’s wedding. We last minute needed a dog sitter and Jacqueline jumped right in to help us. She was kind, communicative and our dog was in great hands with her. If we lived in the area we would have 100% booked her again
Since our 2 dogs are seniors (18 & 15) and have special needs, we had to look for a person who understands the challenges of taking care of them. We got lucky with Angelina and how she was able to help take care of our dogs for a week while we were away. She was extremely flexible with learning what works for our dogs, and you could actually see that she cares. She sent us updates and photos throughout the day,on a daily basis, which was very much appreciated! I couldn't recommend her enough, esp if you're looking for a sitter/caregiver that understands seniors and special needs dogs.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Hines home-away-from-home, 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 Hines.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Hines 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 , 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 .
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.
