“Sarah was excellent! She sent us photos and updates of our dog Gus while we were out of the country for two weeks. She was understanding and able to care for our senior dog with special needs. Would highly recommend!”
“Natalie is Amazing sitter! She was very caring, attentive, and kept us updated throughout our dog’s stay. It was clear he was happy and well taken care of. We really appreciated her flexibility and would definitely book with her again! 🐾❤️”
“Michelle and her family took excellent care of my nervous pup. She went above and beyond making him comfortable, giving him lots of walks, and even gave him a bath when he needed it. Would definitely book again!”
“Justine, Brett, and family made our little guy feel right at home. If our dog could speak a human language I am sure he’d say to my family, “Hurry up and go on vacation again!” If you need someone to care for your pup(s) look no further, as they are great carers and communicators.”
“Amberley was an awesome sitter for our dog. She took him for long walks and texted us pictures every day of him with her dog and cat so we were not at all worried about him. I would absolutely use her again.”
“Danielle was great! I asked her to meet up with me and our dog beforehand to ensure that we were a perfect fit for each other. I am certain our pup was well taken care off while we were away and she was made a part of their lovely family. Couldn’t ask for more and will be using her services again in the future.”
“Anton and Amanda were wonderful with Griffy! He seemed to have a great time with them and their family! They sent pictures daily and updated me with how he was doing. They kept him safe and happy and were very easy to correspond with. Highly recommend!”
“Jo’ Ell did an amazing job caring for my precious cockapoo while we went on a week long vacation. She quickly bonded with my dog and has provided excellent care and daily photos of his activities and interactions with another cute dog. She is very caring and conscientious. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable, caring and knowledgeable person to care for their pet. Her rates are very reasonable, and he provides exceptional service. He came home smelling so fresh I had to move his grooming appointment to a later date.”
“Melissa is amazing! She kept me updated daily and even sent pictures!! I felt at ease knowing my pup was been very well taken care of. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Susan and David and their son did a fabulous job watching my Maggie while I was out of the country. All of their attention was on her. They were flexible and obviously caring. Their home was immaculate. Their communication was outstanding. Highly recommend!”
“The BEST! Matthew and Michelle were wonderful, they loved our crazy little dog the way we do! From the moment we dropped him off we felt a sense of relief that our boy would be happy and safe! We will definitely be return customers!”
“John took good care of both of my dogs! He was very communicative and cared for them deeply—they didn't want to leave when I picked them up! We will definitely bring our dogs back to John when the opportunity arises!”
“Lynda is a fantastic! She sent us frequent pictures/videos/texts when our dogs were under her care. She is very friendly and communicative! We will definitely board our dogs with her again!”
“Erica was a great host for our dogs! She and her pup Rocky did a great job making Oreo and Lotus feel welcome. Erica was great at communicating and I appreciated her flexibility when our travels got delayed!”
“Shirley was fabulous! She communicated with us many times a day and sent pictures regularly. Our dog was relaxed and very happy when we brought him home. Thank you Shirley!!”
“Arielle was wonderful with Charlie! She kept me updated, took great care of him, and made sure he felt comfortable. I really appreciate her kindness and patience. Highly recommend!”
“Mary took great care of our girl. This was the first time we had to leave her with anyone else so we were a little worried. Ms Dolly was treated like she was at home. She got lots of walks in, which I know she loved. If we need a sitter again we would choose Mary, if she would take Dolly again.”
“Another great boarding experience with Will! I think our dog likes being with Will better than us! Will always responds quickly and communicates often with us when caring for our dog. It's such a comfort knowing Jackie is being well-cared for. If I had small children, I'd feel confident leaving them with Will too!”

Michelle and Erika did a wonderful job taking care of my black lab, BB! She was very comfortable there and I know she had loads of fun with their other dogs, as they sent me pictures and videos throughout the entire stay! BB seemed very happy when I came to pick her up, almost too happy like she didn’t want to leave her new friends behind! Thank you so so much again for taking BB in so last minute and taking such great care of her the week that I was gone! I highly recommend these two to take care of your fur babies! 💖
First time leaving my 2 1/2 yr old Golden with anyone other than family so I was pretty nervous on how It would go but Danielle put my mind at ease and made my girl Emme a part of her family for the night! She even got her to eat her dinner which is always a struggle when the routine is switched up. Your fur baby is in great hands with Danielle.
Amberley and Matt were great to meet and work with for boarding our dog Stella. You do not always know in advance how your dog and other dogs will be compatible. We received daily updates of walks , acitivity , pics , and compatibility. Thanks Amberley and Matt for taking such good care of Stella while we were away. —- Peter
We just had our dog Frida stay with Iris for 6 days and could not be happier with the absolute best care Frida received. We are first timers with Rover and were a bit hesitant doing a service. Frida is an 8lb little dog and wanted someone who does one dog/family at a time and this is what Iris does. We were so happy to find this with Iris. Her whole family loved and cared for our Frida and we are so appreciative for this special and kind care. We 100% recommend Iris and definitely found a great pet sitter. Also, I like that Frida was never left alone the whole 6 days. I was afraid she wouldn't want to come home lol. Book with Iris!!!
Jean and Al were wonderful pet sitters for Gus and Stella during our 10-day vacation. We felt completely at ease knowing they were being cared for so well. Gus is a special needs dog and needs extra attention, including medication, and Jean and Al went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable, cared for, and had everything he needed. They also sent us photos of both dogs every day, which we really appreciated. It was obvious from the pictures that Gus and Stella were relaxed, happy, and getting plenty of love from Jean, Al, and their family. When we picked them up, both dogs seemed happy and completely comfortable, which told us everything we needed to know. We’re very grateful for the care they gave Gus and Stella and would absolutely use them again the next time we travel.
Benji spent another week with Amanda and he loved it! He does have a little bit of separation anxiety, this was his second time, and he had no problem heading into her door and away from me. She is amazing, sends updates with pictures and cuddles with him on the couch. Best sitter ever!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Lombard on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 5,385 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Lombard. 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 Lombard 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 Lombard 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 Lombard 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 Lombard.
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 Lombard 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.
