“People in the Lincolnway/Tinley Park area, these are a great couple who love dogs. Big yard, friendly dogs to pal around with your dog, assurance by video. Will use again. Lucy gives five tail wags”
“This is our first time using Rover and Kendra made us comfortable and was very accommodating! She even got toys for our boys. She communicated well and sent lots of pictures. Fetty can be very anxious and they can be reactive to dogs, she was patient and worked well with them. We will definitely be using her in the future ❤️”
“Shani responded quickly to take a last minute long term booking. She was very communicative & hands on with Malcolm. Felt very comfortable leaving my baby while out of the country.”
“Kathy and her family were wonderful! She asked thoughtful questions on how to care for my dog. Kathy kept me updated on how Honey was doing during her stay with texts and pictures. She treated my furbaby like family. Highly recommended!”
“Thank you! I was so neevous to leave Goku with anyone because he is so big & you were able to handle him correctly! Also thank you so much for all the pictures and updates. It made me feel really comfortable. ?”
“Liliana and her family gave me such peace of mind to leave my Whiskey in their care. The initial visit with the family in their beautiful home was so warm and friendly. And while I was away, I was so grateful for the updates and pics throughout each day. Whiskey got attached to one of Liliana’s teenage daughters. So sweet!”
“Toya was a wonderful sitter. We had to shift our boarding days last minute from Fri-Mon to Thurs-Sun last minute and she was able to accommodate without a problem. She was also very responsive and would reply back to any questions or check-ins within minutes. We especially loved her family environment which I feel was very comforting to our Brick. He seemed very comfortable when he first arrived and upon pick-up from his 3 night stay. We will definitely use Toya’s services again!”
About: I have both a cat and a dog. Recently moved out to steger/monee.

Anywhere that I can commute via CTA to walk, sit, or feed your pet. I have 3 cats in my apartment, although I have previous experience with a family dog. I also have experience volunteering at PAWS animal shelter.
“Absolutely exceptional dog sitting experience! From the moment we reached out to inquire about Barbara's services, to the very end of my dog's stay, everything was seamless and stress-free. Barbara not only provided top-notch care for dog, Gracie, but she also went above and beyond to ensure her comfort and happiness. Communication was fantastic throughout the entire process, with regular updates and photos that reassured me Gracie was in great hands. It was evident that she and her husband genuinely loves animals and know how to cater to their individual needs. The environment provided for my dog was clean and safe. I appreciated the personalized attention given to my dog, including her dietary preferences and exercise routine being carefully followed. Returning home, Gracie was happy, healthy, and clearly had a wonderful time during her stay. I cannot recommend Barbara highly enough! If you're looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and passionate about animals, look no further. I will definitely be booking her services again in the future.”
“Kimberley provided my dog with the best possible care imaginable. She treats the dogs as if they were her own. Excellent communication and just a wonderful person overall. Highly recommend!”
“Megan did a great job with Winston - an eight month old Miniature Schnauzer puppy with plenty of energy. She is very patient, caring, and easy to coordinate with. I will definitely leverage her services again.”
“Dan and Monica are such wonderful people and so kind to your animal while they are watching yours. They made us feel so comfortable and they shared plenty of pictures which made us feel so happy while we were away. Would love to use them again in the future!”
“Tonisa was great!! We did a meet and greet first. She was accommodating of any special needs and took care of Rocky like her own! Great with pictures and videos too! Rocky will be back to see Ava, his new friend.”
“Stefanie was great! She communicated very well and sent pictures. We had an issue with our flight and she was very accommodating and understanding. Definitely recommend!”

Latasha is the best, she made the whole process Completely simple and easy. I will be using her services again. And I can tell that my dog Charlie really did enjoy his stay. She kept me informed and sent lots of pictures. Thank you for providing my dog a home away from home.
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 Pet Boarding in Homewood on Rover is $34.33 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 Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 4,822 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Homewood. About 90% of Homewood 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.

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.
