“There are not enough stars for my review. Katey and her family are so gracious and kind and from the moment of our Meet & Greet I knew my German Shepherd would be in good hands. My dog suffers anxiety and is quite shy but knowing Katey had been a Vet Tech made me feel comfortable that any issues would be minimal and that is exactly what occurred. Katey was very responsive to text messages and sent tons of photos. I feel so blessed to know if I need someone in the future that Katey is on Rover as an option. If you love you pet as if they were your child, then trust them with someone responsible, caring, and professional, choose Katey for your next boarding or daycare. Thanks Katey, Wrigley already misses you all.”
“Kyle was a fantastic sitter for our pittie mix. She was loved and taken care of at his home with a fenced in yard. He sent lots of cute photos and updates during our weekend away. We will definitely use Kyle again!”
“This was our first time boarding with Cindy and we couldn't have been more pleased. Cindy is super nice, shared lots of photos and updates with us, and has an amazing, big, fenced-in backyard that allowed our dog to explore and walk around in safely. Cindy took the time to have a nice meet and greet with us before we decided to board our dog with her, and to make sure our pup got along with her dog Coco, who is super sweet and very easy going. They got along great! 5/5 would recommend and book again!”
“Maria was a wonderful dog watcher, she was able to take my dog last minute as the other sitter cancelled. She sent me daily text message with pic of my dog everyday. I highly recommend her.”
“River enjoyed her stay again and the drop off pick up was super easy and Justine was ready to go. They gave us photos each and kept us up to date. We will be back again. River enjoyed being able to hangout with the kiddos as she's a social people loving dog.”
“We were so happy with the care that was provided for our two dogs. We received pictures of our dogs. They looked happy. She alway went the extra mile for our dogs. One of the dogs was licking his paw alot and she provided care for him. She kept us informed and we were confident of her care. We are so thankful and will definitely recommend her with your dog.”
“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.”
“Sonia and Greg were great with our dog! He had a good time and we got updates with photos throughout his stay. They also helped get our picky dog to eat while we were away. Definitely wonderful people to take care of your dog!”
“Hi , Kichu had a great time with Mario. He texted me and also replied my text in a timely manner so I could solve the problem easily . I was able to enjoy my trip peacefully. He sent me Kichu’s pictures and videos.I highly consider Mario next time. Thank you for your service.”
About: With over 10 years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, I offer calm, attentive, one-on-one boarding in a clean and peaceful home. As a former groomer, I’m skilled in handling anxious, shy, or energetic dogs, and I’m confident in brushing, basic hygiene care, and reading canine body language. I currently have one friendly Shiba Inu at home, and I only host one client at a time—ensuring your dog receives my full attention and a safe, low-stress environment. Whether your dog enjoys playtime, slow walks, or quiet company, I adjust my care based on their routine and comfort level. Feel free to send me a message—I'd love to learn about your dog and how I can make their stay feel like home. Your dog’s care is naturally built into my daily routine. We start the morning with a refreshing walk, breakfast, and some calm bonding time. Throughout the day, your dog will enjoy structured potty breaks, enrichment games, and plenty of supervised relaxation. You will receive updates during these key moments—morning, afternoon, and evening—so you’ll always know how your dog is settling in. I stay closely aligned with your dog’s normal schedule to reduce stress and help them feel at home quickly. Consistency, supervision, and comfort are always my priorities. I provide full-time supervision when boarding, maintain a clean living space, and follow each dog’s feeding, medication, and potty schedule exactly as instructed. Dogs are never left unsupervised around my Shiba Inu, and introductions are done slowly and safely. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages throughout the day so you always know how your dog is doing.
“Our dog stayed with Lynn for the first time! Everything went well. Our dog hadn't stayed with anyone in a long time, but with time she came out of her shell and enjoyed her stay. Lynn's dogs are really nice too. It was nice getting a few pictures over the weekend along with text updates. We will use her again. Thanks!”
“Todd was an exceptional dog sitter! Initially, my very spoiled dog had some anxiety issues and Todd handled this with patience and expertise. He provided photos and videos, easing my mind that "all was well" and that my dog, Gabby was being well taken care of. Eventually, she felt right at home, jumping on the bed, and spending the night with her "foster dad". I would highly recommend Todd to anyone who is looking for an experienced dog sitter, as it is clear that his passion for dogs is reflected in the questions he asked and the way he catered to my pup! 5 stars!!!! Thank you Todd!”
“I love Viktoriia! She took exceptional care of my old kitty. I was very nervous about going away, but Viktoriia put me at ease right away. She sent pictures daily and made my kitty comfortable and secure. 5 stars!!”
“We had a wonderful experience! Maria took such great care of Archer and made sure he was comfortable and well looked after throughout his stay. She was also very accommodating when we needed to extend his boarding and even went out of her way to get food for him. We really appreciated the regular picture updates, which gave us peace of mind knowing he was doing well. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. We’re so grateful for her care and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”
“Groot had a great time with Michelle and her family. He was really cared for and had a fun time staying with them. We really appreciated the photos and updates throughout his stay. We would highly recommend Michelle and would definitely leave Groot in her care in the future.”
“Janette and Charlie were so thoughtful and caring in their communication regarding my dog. I appreciated their daily updates, pictures and even a video! We'll definitely use Janette and Charlie again!”
“This was Medea's second time staying with Derek, and she clearly had just as good a time as the first! She came home extremely tired and content, so I know she played a lot. Derek always sends prompt and detailed updates, so I know she's in good hands when we send her there.”

Yenny was amazing. I left my rescue dog Ocean for the first time since I got her for two weeks with Yenny while I was away on vacation. She was always active on text and sent pictures and videos frequently. She took Ocean out on daily 2-3 mile walks, and her own dog was a great companion for mine. My dog loved her stay and Yenny was patient and great at helping her get accustomed to the new environment. Definitely recommend and will be going back for future boarding.
Julie and Mark were fantastic caretakers of our senior pup while we were out of town for a weekend! We are so grateful! Our dog takes a couple of medications and has a special diet. They were attentive to his schedule and patient with his anxiety. The daily updates and communication made us feel at ease. We highly recommend Julie and Mark!
This is our 2nd time leaving our Brownie with Allis. She is very attentive, professional yet playful and caring with our dog and also very responsive. From updates and pictures every day to quick messages back. We know he is in great hands when he is with her.

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Hoffman Estates is $40 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $66 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
There are 5,472 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Hoffman Estates. About 91% of Hoffman Estates 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.
