“Jeffery and Ron were great. My dog often gets nervous when she stays with new people. But she was very happy during her first visit. Jeffrey sent several updates and pictures during the day. I would highly recommend them.”

About: I have extensive experience walking, and boarding dogs of all sizes and breeds. Caring for animals is something I truly enjoy, and I am committed to providing the highest level of care for every pet I welcome into my home. I understand that every dog is unique, which is why I tailor my care to each pet’s size, age, health, energy level, and individual needs. My goal is to make your dog feel like they’re on their own vacation while staying with my family! I provide regular photo updates so you can feel confident that your furry friend is happy, safe, and well cared for. I also carefully follow all owner instructions because I know how important consistency and trust are when it comes to your pet’s care. I have an 15 year-old Brittany Spaniel who is friendly and well-trained. Your dog will have companionship and plenty of opportunities to socialize, play, and have fun. In addition to dog care, I also offer drop-in visits for cats, including feeding, playtime, litter box cleaning, fresh water, and plenty of attention. You’ll receive updates and photos after every visit. What Your Dog Can Expect During Their Stay: Plenty of exercise, walks, and potty breaks Constant supervision and human interaction A safe, loving, family environment Freedom to roam indoors (no crating unless requested by the owner) Daily photos, videos, and updates The typical daily routine includes: Morning walk Midday potty break Afternoon walk and playtime Evening walk I would love the opportunity to care for your pet and treat them like a member of our family. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions! This is my full-time job! I have more than 20 years experience training, walking, and boarding dogs of all sizes. Caring for dogs is something I truly enjoy, and I always give my best to make sure every pup feels safe, happy, and loved. I provide personalized care based on each dog’s size, age, health, energy level, and individual needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or simply relaxing, I’ll make sure they receive the attention and care they deserve. 🐾 My home has a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely run, play, and get plenty of exercise. In addition to enjoying outdoor time in the yard, they’ll also receive daily walks to keep them happy, active, and engaged. 🐾

“Here’s a polished and friendly Rover-style review you can use: ⸻ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5-Star Review for Karla Karla was an amazing sitter for my dog, Charlie! From the moment I dropped her off, I felt completely at ease. She sent lots of updates, photos, and check-ins throughout the stay, which really reassured me that Charlie was happy and doing great. When I picked her up, she was calm, comfortable, and clearly well cared for. You can tell Karla truly loves dogs and treats them like her own. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!”

“Bridget definitely lived up to her Star Sitter status. First time using her as a sitter and she was great at keeping me up to date with texts and pics/videos of Chloe during her stay. I can tell if things went well when Chloe gives me the silent treatment because she doesn't want to come home just yet. It's like a vacation for her. She came home and laid down and went right to sleep (not her normal). Thank you so much for taking great care of Chloe. Will be sure to reach out again should the need arise!”

“Diane was amazing. I have two small Maltese dogs with separation anxiety, so I was very nervous about leaving them. From the moment we met, she made me feel at ease. She welcomed them into her home and went above and beyond to make sure they felt comfortable, safe, and confident. It was a wonderful experience, and I could tell my dogs were happy and well cared for. I’m already booking with her again for future stays. Highly recommend!”

“Kate was absolutely amazing! I boarded my dog at Kate's for a week. Prior to the boarding, she was exceptional at communicating with me and answering all of my many questions and making sure I was very confident in my decision to board with her. That confidence grew even stronger when I dropped off my dog, and saw that her dog, cat and children all warmly welcomed my dog, and I could tell my dog immediately felt at home. Throughout the stay she provided updates and pictures as well as went above and beyond in multiple ways. I will definitely be booking with Kate again and highly recommend her to take care of your pet!”

This was my first time using Rover, which I was pretty nervous about since I usually have a family member watch my dog. Sandra and Sorin were very friendly sitters.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Kenilworth

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Kenilworth is $65 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $53 and $87 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.

As of October 2026, there are 4,967 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Kenilworth. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.

95% of sitters in Kenilworth can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Kenilworth home-away-from-home, we recommend 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 Kenilworth.

Tip: 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 Kenilworth 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 Rover Guarantee, 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 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.

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.
