“Amy and her husband were great. It was a last minute booking, and they even watched Todd an extra day when my plans changed at the last minute and I wasn't going to be home on time.”
“Like before, Diana and Brian were wonderful to Piper. Easy communication, lots of photos and updates. My dog is very anxious and a picky eater but Diana and Brian takes care of her really well and makes sure her needs are met. Definitely recommend and 100% satisfied. Until next booking.”
“Natalie did a wonderful job taking care of our pups! She sent us regular updates with photos, took them on regular walks and gave them the attention they love. I definitely recommend her and would take my dogs back to her.”
“We had a fantastic experience with Vanessa! She went above and beyond, sending daily pictures and ensuring quick communication. It was evident that she genuinely cared for our dog, King. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for top-notch in-home pet care.”
“Magda and her family were amazing with my puppy. She sent daily updates with pictures, and I felt my gut baby was being treated as a family member. I cannot thank Magda enough! ❤️”
“Albina was very sweet and patient with our little baby. He is a handful with lots of energy. She sent lots of pictures and played with him. She was very patient as it was his first time being away from home and he cried a lot at night. Albina tried to comfort him by sleeping on the couch with our pup and even taking him to her bed. She even went the extra mile to make sure he eventually got some sleep when we took him home. 10/10”
“Kimberly was communicative about our dog and kept us up to date with his progress and needs. She made leaving him easy to trust he was going to stay in a loving home!”
“I cannot recommend Kelly and her family enough! They took exceptional care of my Goldendoodle, Biscuit, while I was on holiday. This was Biscuit’s first time away from me, and as a pup, I was a little nervous about how he would adjust. However, Kelly’s warm and welcoming nature immediately put me at ease. She kept me updated, making sure I knew he was happy and well cared for. It’s clear that she and her family truly love dogs, and their kindness and attentiveness made all the difference. Biscuit came back happy, healthy, and well-loved. Kelly and her family will absolutely be my go-to for pet care moving forward. If you’re looking for someone you can trust with your furry family member, I highly recommend Kelly!”
“This family took incredible care of my dog, Atlas! This was my first time using rover and I will definitely use it again. Julie sent pictures of him daily having fun and playing with their other dogs. It was so comforting knowing he wasn't going to be crated all the time. He had a large fenced in yard, other dogs, and a great family to keep him happy. I would highly recommend this family!!! Awesome experience! ”
“Archer had a wonderful time at Karen’s. With his puppy behavior and not being around other dogs much I was a little worried. Karen was kind and reassuring. She kept me updated on his behavior through our trip. Archer settled in and made himself at home. She will be at the top of our list next time care is needed for Archer.”
“Laina and Bill did a wonderful job watching our dog for the weekend. From the moment we had the in-home meet & greet, our dog seemed so comfortable in a “make himself at home” sort of way. We re dived many photo updates along the way, which were very appreciated. Even other “good” sitters in the past did not keep the steady stream of updates coming. There wasn’t even a moment of worry or eondering how he’s doing. I would definitely put them at the top of our list for for future boardings.”
“When we went on vacation. We left our dog Rambo at Jeana's house. She took care of him like her own child. Rambo felt like he was on vacation. I really recommend her. Thank you very much for taking care of our dog. She is. the best!!!”
“My dog sitter Fanny was wonderful! She was very communicative throughout the stay, which gave me peace of mind, and I could tell my puppy was in great hands. I would absolutely use her again”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Lockport on Rover is $45.21 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 3,061 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Lockport. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
93% of Lockport sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Lockport landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Lockport 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 Lockport.
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 Lockport 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.
