“Our pup Titus had a great stay with Michelle! He’s a senior dog with some special needs, being a rescue adoptee, and she was so great at making sure he was comfortable and well cared for. ☺️”
“Fantastic experience. Diana was extremely responsive and took great care of our senior dog. Lily seemed right at home with her. I would highly recommend her and we hope to use her again.”
“Rizwan, Noorjahan and their family were such great sitters for our dog and cat! They are such a sweet family and we received many pictures every day. I was reassured that both my pets were having a great time with them! Will definitely reach out again for our next sitting.”
“Diana and Scott are wonderful. Ruby has stayed with them several times and she's always comfortable and happy at their home. They're communicative and kind and make traveling so easy, never having to worry that Ruby is receiving the best care.”
“Nicky was great with our Frenchie. Lots of communication and photos. Would recommend if you need someone that can care for a fussy dog that needs lots of attention!”
“Maria was amazing with my dog!! I was so nervous leaving my dog with someone other than family. Lucy is a rescue so she has been through it. Maria and her daughter took such good care of my pup and sent pictures daily.”
“Charise was amazing with our dog Zoe! Zoe came home happy, relaxed, and clearly very well cared for. Charise kept us updated throughout the stay with messages and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She took Zoe on walks, car rides, and let her play in the yard with her sweet dog Navi. You could tell Zoe was getting lots of attention and love the entire time. We also really appreciated that Charise dropped Zoe off at home for us. Highly recommend Charise if you are looking for someone caring, reliable, and attentive to watch your fur baby!”
“Marco and his wife are absolutely amazing! I would highly recommend Marco. My dogs were loved and had a blast. They sent great updates and pictures. I could not ask for a better dog sitter.”
“Everything went smoothly from our meet and greet to the drop off, pick up and everything in between. We appreciated the regular photo updates with Rocky and his girlfriends, and his adventures in Cynthia's backyard with the other day care dogs. She took good care to make sure he had regular access to his crate for his frequent naps and need to go outside to do his business. Thank you Cynthia for taking on our old fella, Rocky!”
“Naomi was great!! She was very prepared and ready to learn about and to care for our dogs just the way they needed. Our dogs had the best time taking long walks, lounging, and looking out the big window. She took the time to introduce our dogs and Milo and they became great friends. The house was quiet, very clean, and perfect for our dogs. We loved seeing the daily photos while we were traveling. Definitely would recommend!”
“Thao has kept my Golden Retriever, Sully, for two different stays when I have needed to board him when my husband and I travel. Once was for a 4 day stint and the other time was for a short weekend. She is very communicable via cell phone and responds to messages very quickly and responsibly. She has sent me updates of Sully with photos and videos and been very nice. It's been really great to be able to leave home and feel confident and trust that my dog is in good hands. She has even come to my home to pick him up before when I haven't had time to drop him off, and she's been very flexible and easy to work with. If you need to leave your pet with someone when you are vacationing, I would HIGHLY recommend her! I have been very pleased with both of my experiences with Thao and Sully always seems excited to see her, which says a lot. Thank you for taking such great care of my fur baby, Thao!!”
“Amazing sitter! Our puppy had a great time and was calm, tired and happy when we picked him up. Thank you for all the pictures and for being so flexible. Definitely coming back!”
“Guadalupe took such great care of my Tommy. I could tell he was having a great time from all the picture and video updates I was getting! I will definitely book again!”
“Jackie took great care of my cat Pepper! She sent daily updates and photos, which kept me totally at ease. She was also really flexible when my flight was delayed and pickup ran late. Highly recommend booking with her!”

Amalia is amazing, she is very flexible and understanding when travel plans don’t always work as planned. She was willing and happy to keep my dog another night when i couldn’t get a flight home in time. My dog is always happy when at her house, we couldn’t thank her enough!
Jackie was fantastic. I was instantly at ease from the meet and greet where she was welcoming, played with Lola and let her explore her home, and had clearly read Lola's care sheet. She sent updates throughout and most importantly, Lola came back very happy and healthy. Will definitely use her again!
Coconut had such a fun time with Claire and Sushi! She went to Claire’s house two different times so far and she was sooo excited to get back there!! She also learned better behavior from Sushi and Claire even trained Coconut to do a few different tricks. Thanks so much Claire !! :)
Zach was the perfect sitter for our sensitive little rat terrier mix! He was patient, attentive, knowledgeable, and trustworthy. He was incredibly understanding of our dog’s quirks and sensitivities, including nervousness around new people and other dogs, and made us feel completely at ease while out of town. We could not recommend him more!
I had the best experience with Carla and her roommate! They were so attentive to my baby Dulce for a 3 day and 3 night boarding and treated her with their utmost love and care. I highly recommend letting them take care of your furbabies and will definitely be booking again! ❤️🙏
We have had two great experiences with Tammy watching our dog Clark! She did an excellent job communicating throughout the stay, sending regular updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind. Most importantly, she took wonderful care of our dog and treated him like her own. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup and will definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!
Georgia was AMAZING! She was so flexible and constantly was sending me pictures/updates. The care she provided my pup was exceptional. Her doggy Livy is also perfection and did so well with my pup. Will most definitely always come back to Georgia when I need a sitter!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Lincolnwood on Rover is $51.55 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 5,384 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Lincolnwood. About 90% of Lincolnwood 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.

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.
