“Melody did a great job with Bear. He came home his usual happy go lucky self. No adjustment time at all returning home. She kept us informed daily with pics and comments on how Bear was doing. Would definitely recommend her!”

“I loved leaving my Yogi at JoAnne’s. She was very welcoming, anxious to make sure I was comfortable with her house and her puppy and she had a calm friendly manner. Yogi ran right in, met her dog and started playing, JoAnne sent me several very cute pictures of Yogi playing and resting, so I could see that he was having a good time. I would hire her again if she is available.”

“Higgins loved his time with Carolyn. She is amazing and took great care of our boy. from frequent walks, daily updates and lots of pictures she keeps in close contact during the stay. We found a gem!!!”


“Elizabeth was wonderful with my dog Nellie. She is on a few medications and it was no bother for her at all to go that extra mile for Nellie. Elizabeth has 2 wonderful dogs of her own who were very happy to play and entertain my dog. I will definitely use her again and will tell my friends about her as well.”

“She took such good care of my puppy, she was in constant communication and sent pictures almost daily. She super spoiled my baby and he had a blast the whole time! She even went above and beyond and took him to be groomed at her shop.”

“Definitely coming back if I ever need a sitter again! There were so great with our furbaby and communicating and sending pictures, she had so much fun I think she was a little sad to leave. 10/10”


“Finley seemed to enjoy staying with Kathryn and her family. He especially liked the company of her dogs, Harvey and Pepito! Kathryn even gave Finley a good brushing. We will definitely use Kathryn again another time we need a sitter. Thanks Rover!”

“Anays and Francis took really good care of my Lucy. They sent me daily photos and I could see she was happy and getting plenty of love. I'll definitely use their services again the next time I'm away.”

“Loved having Jess take care of our big pup! He was welcomed into her family for our extended vacation and he immediately felt comfortable and at home! (He’s a little anxious so this was a big deal!). We got regular updates and photos. Will 100% use her again!”


“Excellent experience. Mariya and her family were exceptional. Mariya and her entire family are so great. They asked questions to know he likes and doesn’t like. They communicated very well. We were on vacation in Puerto Rico so we needed to feel confident Hero would be well taken care of. He WAS!! They sent pictures and videos daily. My dog gets nervous around other dogs so it limits our options for so Otters. Their dog was great with him. Their dog laid on the floor inside down to get Hero to engage and by the time Hero left they were best friends. Mt beloved pup will miss them so much. We will definitely book with them again. He was treated like a king!”

“Anna was super kind and accommodating. She did take pictures (which I so appreciate) including on walks. My dog was a bit high energy and Anna managed well - I know because he came back tired. Also, super helpful when we had to cut the trip short. TY Anna!”

About: In addition to my own dogs, I have also owned cats of my own in the past, giving me years of firsthand experience with feline care. This personal background fits perfectly with the routine care I provide for my sister’s animals whenever she goes on vacation four times a year. I take complete charge of her four dogs—three Miniature Pomeranians and a Goldendoodle—and have even cared for their puppies in my home on two separate occasions while she was out of town. My responsibilities for her also include looking after her cats, ensuring they are properly fed, and keeping their litter boxes clean. This extensive, hands-on experience with multi-pet households, puppies, and feline care has made me highly adept at maintaining safety, routines, and a nurturing environment for animals of all ages and types. I'm pretty open as I'm a special education teacher and off in the summer. I have free time and I'm flexible. I would love to make extra money doing what I love. I care for them as I would my own children. We are all in the same area as a family. Pets are free to roam the house and I have a fenced in yard.
“Repeat customer. Diane takes great care of our Princess and we are very happy with her dog sitter services. We can travel with peace of mind knowing our dog is being well cared for by Diane.”


“Thank you so much for taking Maple on such short notice. Five stars are simply not enough to describe the wonderful experience we had. It was comforting to see that Maple had a loving home away from home. She clearly enjoyed playing in the fenced yard with Sadie, and I truly appreciated the frequent communication and photos you shared. It was great to see her receiving so much love and attention. I will definitely be using your services again.”


“Once again, Jessica and her family are the perfect hosts for my Bear. This is the third time he has stayed with him and I can tell he is getting the very best care I could possibly ask for. She’s great about sending pictures and letting me know how things are going. I can’t say enough about Jessica!”

“Absolutely awesome! They obviously love animals. My girls had a wonderful time visiting Francine and Bob. This was the first time I left them at a sitter’s house. They sent photos of my girls having fun. That put my mind at ease. I definitely will use them again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Johnsburg
This was our first time leaving Piper (our 70 lb. Golden retriever) with Alicia. The choice was easy. She had experience and there was a fenced yard. Piper is difficult to walk. Ali asked all the right questions during our meet and greet. Ali was an excellent care giver! She sent daily pictures which were greatly appreciated! Piper looked happy and right at home. It appears her children enjoyed having a dog around! She said Piper would be welcomed back anytime. We will definitely book with her again.

From start to finish, Barbara was helpful and welcoming to our family and Kylo. Kylo definitely missed her and wanted to say goodbye. We will definitely use Barbara again because she took amazing care of our family dog. Thank you for all the updates and for looking out for our dog.

There are 1,047 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Johnsburg. About 93% of Johnsburg 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.

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.
