“Makinzee was very easy to communicate with and was quite responsive with updates on how my dog was doing with photos. My dog had a lot of fun playing around with the kids in the house and the other dogs. He came back home better groomed as well. I would definitely trust Makinzee with Java again.”

“Rachel was fantastic with our senior dog, Flo. Flo has mobility issues and multiple medications, and Rachel took great care of her when we were away. Flo and Rachel's endearing cat became nap buddies. Rachel sent us plenty of feedback and pictures to reassure us that Flo was OK. We would definitely book with Racheal again.”

About: Hey everyone, my name is Aric. I am originally from Peoria, Illinois but live in Champaign, Illinois. I have had dogs and cats my entire life. We get along great. Currently, I have one dog and two cats of my own. I have extra space in my house and am able to keep Rover animals separate. Please read all of my profile and contact me before requesting a service. One important thing to know is that Rover adds additional booking fees to my rates. If you can pay directly via Cashapp, Venmo, or Zelle, my rates will be lower than what is listed. Or, if you prefer to still use Rover for payments, that is ok. Send me a message if you have any questions. Hola a todos, me llamo Aric (Eric con A) y muchas personas que hablan el español me llaman mi segundo nombre Enrike (Enrique con K). Soy de Peoria, Illinois y vivo en Champaign, Illinois. He tenido perros y gatos toda mi vida. Nos llevamos muy bien. Actualmente, tengo una perra y dos gatos. Tengo espacio adicional en casa y puedo mantener separados a los animales de Rover. Por favor, que usted lea todo mi perfil y comuníquese conmigo antes de solicitar un servicio. Un detalle importante que usted necesita saber es que Rover añade cargos adicionales a mis precios. Si puedes pagar directamente a través de Cashapp, Venmo o Zelle, mis precios serán más bajos que los publicados. O, si prefiere seguir usando Rover para enviar los pagos, también está bien. Envíeme un mensaje si tiene alguna pregunta. I take great care of my animals every day. I am very good with structed routines for me and my animals. Currently, my dog and two cats live with me. I replenish their food and water twice each day and socialize with them every day. Drop-In Visits: I am very flexible and adaptable to most environments and most needs of my clients and their humans. My profile accurately reflects services and prices. However, there may be some potential flexibility in order to meet the needs of my clients. Please read my entire profile including the introduction area where I mention how Rover adds additional booking fees to my rates. Day Care and/or Boarding: All my animals are up-to-date on vaccines. My cats have had vaccines for rabies and FVRCP. My dog has had vaccines for rabies, canine influenza bivalent (H3N2 and H3N8), distemper, parvo, bordetella, leptospirosis, and lyme disease. While I do not expect you to have all of these for your animals too, I do prefer that your animals are vaccinated for at least rabies and distemper for both dogs and cats as well as bordetella for dogs. Vaccines are very important for the safety, health, and well-being of all of our animals. For similar reasons, for boarding and/or day care, you MUST provide your cage/crate for your animals.

About: I am a true animal lover who loves caring for your special family member(s) as if they are my own. I love to play with, walk, groom, and spend time with pets and provide a warm, loving, and safe environment. I also know how hard it is to leave your babies with strangers and take special care to send you pictures and videos while you're apart. Let me know what your baby needs and I'll make sure they have the best time possible while you're away. Please note that I do have two very friendly and playful Boston Terriers in the home but if your pet prefers its own space, I have a huge house and a private room dedicated to your pet if they need it. I work out of my home, which is a enormous space with a large fenced back yard. I also love walking dogs several times a day and will be able to provide 24/7 care for your pet in my home. I have a large fenced yard, two separate rooms just for pets (should they need to be alone), and a large vehicle for transport. I also have a large kennel set up in case your pet responds best to being kenneled at time. I don't leave my dogs unattended outside.

About: Thank you for considering me to care for your furry family member! In my house, pets are family, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. My goal is to make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, happy, and right at home while you’re away. I work primarily from home, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to spend with the dogs in my care. Whether it’s an awesome playtime sesh, a neighborhood walk, some fresh air in the backyard, or simply lounging together on the sofa, I enjoy giving dogs the love and attention they deserve. I no longer have a dog of my own (but I had the best Beagle for 15 wonderful years until recently), so your dog will have my full attention! I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. BOARDING I want your dog to feel right at home during their stay! They’ll have free rein of the house and can sleep wherever they’re most comfortable, including in my bed. If you prefer a crate, just provide one and I’m happy to accommodate. I live in a duplex with a very large, fully fenced and gated backyard shared with my next-door neighbors, who have a Golden Retriever and a Frenchton. If your dog enjoys other dogs, we can discuss sharing the outdoor space. Otherwise, I can provide individual walks and plenty of outdoor potty breaks. DOG WALKING Whether your dog needs a brisk walk, a gentle stroll, or some fresh air and exploring, I’ll tailor walks to their age, energy level, and abilities. DROP-IN & HOME VISITS If your pet is happier at home, I can help with feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship. I can also arrange daytime or overnight stays, depending on your needs and my availability. PET TAXI Need a ride to the groomer, vet, or another outing? I can help with transportation depending on scheduling and distance. Just ask! MY APPROACH TO CARE I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality, habits, and routines, and I’ll carefully follow your instructions, including any medication or special care needs. I’m also happy to send pictures and updates once or twice a day, if you’d like. Above all, I want you to feel comfortable and confident knowing your furry family member is in caring hands. I’ll treat yours with the same love, patience, and consideration I’d want someone to give my own. I look forward to meeting you both! I have a flexible schedule and am happy to work with you to find times that fit your pet’s needs. I can accommodate multiple walks throughout the day, depending on scheduling, and I’m open to boarding one family’s pets at a time so they can receive plenty of individual attention. Advance notice is always appreciated, and I’ll do my best to accommodate your schedule! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my priorities. I follow your instructions carefully, respect your home and your pet’s routines, and make sure your furry family member receives plenty of attention and care. As I get to know each dog, I’m mindful of their personality, needs, and comfort level, whether we’re out for a walk, spending time in your home, or enjoying a stay in mine. I offer boarding for one family’s pets at a time so they can receive more individualized attention. I’m always happy to discuss your pet’s needs, routines, and any special instructions so you can feel confident they’re in caring hands.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Loda

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 80 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Loda. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.

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.

92% of sitters in Loda 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 Loda 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 Loda.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Loda. On Rover:

  • 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 92% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

You and your Loda 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.

Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
