“Jean was amazing with my golden. I loved getting pictures and videos daily and knowing that he was having a great time. My big guy has terrible anxiety during storms and is on a high dose of anxiety medication that sometimes works. When a bad storm rolled in Jean was compassionate and loving and notified me about his condition. As a very overprotective dog mom I trust Jean and we will definitely be using her again.”
“Another wonderful stay with Kim! She took exceptional care of our 5-month-old pup, showing so much love and patience throughout. Yoshi was still adjusting, and Kim handled his puppy energy and behaviors with ease and understanding. She even kept him safe and calm during a long tornado warning, which gave us so much peace of mind. Her fenced yard was perfect for helping him burn off energy, and she went above and beyond by teaching him how to play fetch—and even a little soccer! We also really appreciated the daily updates and photos, especially since we missed him a lot while we were away. We always feel confident leaving Yoshi with Kim—she consistently provides such thoughtful, attentive care. Highly recommend!”
“Excelente experiencia. 🐶❤️ Muchas gracias por cuidar a mi perrito con tanto cariño y paciencia.Me transmitiste mucha confianza y tranquilidad, y me mantuviste informada en todo momento. Sin duda volvería a dejarlo contigo¡Te recomiendo totalmente!🥰🐾”
“Megan was very welcoming and accommodated some last-minute travel plans and made Copper feel right at home. He also got along well with her three pups. He enjoyed having a fenced in backyard where he could run around and play. Thank you!”
“Angela and her whole family treated Daisy like she was a member of the family. She sent us pictures every day, they walked her, they brushed her, they took wonderful care of her! I would completely leave her with them again. ”
“We were really happy with our decision to have Monica care for our two dogs during a weekend away. She was super responsive, flexible, and accommodating and it was obvious she loves animals and took very good care of them. Her house is very clean with lots of places for the dogs to relax, and her fenced backyard was perfect for playtime. Highly recommend!”
“Mary and Norman watched our fur baby while on a week’s vacation and they exceeded our expectations! Not only were they very accommodating with our schedule, they also sent daily updates and made our dog feel right at home - they treated her like their own! Mary and Norman will be the first we call whenever we need a pet sitter.”
“Kelly was absolutely amazing with our dog, Quincy! Quincy has an eye condition that requires an eyedrop every night before bed, and Kelly not only administered it every night but also messaged us afterward to let us know it was done, which gave us so much peace of mind. Throughout his stay, we received plenty of photos and videos, and Quincy got to play with Kelly’s dog, Maggie, every day. Maggie is truly the sweetest little host! We would absolutely send Quincy back to Kelly’s house in the future and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and attentive dog sitter!”
“We hired Judith to watch my 12 year old dog in her home. My dog seemed to really enjoy her stay and I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her. Judith provided twice a day updates which I really enjoyed! She verified with me before I left that twice a day updates would be appropriate which I appreciated too. I would definitely recommend Judith! You can really tell she genuinely cares about dogs. :)”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, and rabbits for the past 15 years of my life. I absolutely adore them and looking for more opportunities to take care of them! I am available most of the time as I am on maternity leave and would have plenty of time to ensure your pet gets the care and exercise it needs. I will take your dog on long walks and ensure that they are comfortable at my home. My home is very safe and uncluttered. You pet would have plenty of space to roam around and play with toys. My neighbourhood is also very safe, quiet, and peaceful.
“Dee is incredibly responsive and reliable. She was warm and welcoming at the meet and greet and again when we dropped off Stella at Dee's home. It was nice to get consistent communication and photos while were away, and we appreciate that Dee gave Stella so much attention.”
“Jessica is fantastic! She took our pup to the park and on her errands which made him very happy. Very communicative too the entire time with photos and videos. And she takes excellent photos to boot!”
“Sammy and Rico had a great time and felt at home! Id highly recommend boarding your dog or dogs with Stella. She gave regular updates with pics. Of the boys. Greatly appreciated that! Thank you”
“We had an excellent experience with Petra and she took wonderful care of Mia while we were away on vacation. From the first meeting, it was clear that Petra genuinely loves animals and takes the responsibility seriously. She followed our instructions and gave our Mia plenty of attention and affection. She kept us updated with regular messages and photos, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Mia was happy, comfortable, and clearly well-loved. We highly recommend Petra to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter. We are incredibly grateful for her services and look forward to working with her again in the future. Highly recommended!”

Jayne took great care of Theo during the time we had to be away. He was very anxious the first day due to terrible thunderstorms, and Jayne kept us posted about how he was doing! It meant a lot to us. She also shared pics throughout the day, which we’d look forward to. Theo would most definitely love going back to her!! He was so well taken care of and pampered by her family :) Highly recommend. Thanks Jayne!
Petra was super lovely!! Mishka cried in the car when we were leaving her home, which tells me immediately that he loved being there. She took super good care of him, not even minding he is a very spoiled puppy, sent us pictures of him being adorable, and played with him and let him borrow all her dog toys.
Sherry took great care of our pup - she kept him active, had toys ready for him, was detail oriented when it came to his care, and sent updates with photos. It was clear he was well loved while in her home! She was easy to work with, flexible, and quick to respond/communicate.

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.
93% of sitters in Libertyville 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 Libertyville 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 Libertyville.
<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 Libertyville 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.
