“Took such good care of our dog! We got lots of photo updates, which helped reassure us. She was able to accommodate all of our dog’s weird quirks and mannerisms, I could tell she ready my notes and applied those to their time together. Will absolutely use again!”
“Lucy had a great time with Dave! Dave sent us pictures of her playing with Roxy. Lucy is very energetic and Dave worked with her well. She was a spoiled girl while with him. I would definitely use Dave and Rover.com again. Thanks for a great experience!”
“We had a great experience with Tamara! She is very communicative, responsive, and flexible when needed. Winnie and Otis loved playing with Maggie. You can trust your pets will be in good care with Tamara!”
“Susan and her husband were just wonderful with our senior dog. She required a special diet with supplements and lots of TLC, which they followed through with just great. They have a lovely enclosed yard and a sweet pup of their own to provide company. Will definitely be making use of their services again.”
About: 20 years boardings of every size-small to larg. I run with your dogs, and keep a steady routine of 4 walks a day or more. I work from home once a week and go home for lunch daily - this flexibility lets me walk the pups at least 4 times a day. I only care for one family of dogs at a time, so your pup gets my full attention in a calm, loving, and trusting home.
“Kelly and her adorable family took such good care of my puppy. I had to travel for work. I had a challenging week and Kelly’s pictures of her cute kids loving on my dog really buoyed my spirits. Thank you for being McLovin’s replacement family for a week! Any dog would be lucky to come live with you guys!”
“France’s was Awesome taking care of our Yeti. Sent daily photos and video. Having met her and her dog Happy in advance we knew our dogs would get along. We couldn’t be happier and have booked her again in a few weeks for a few days.”

We will meet all your guidelines and feeding schedules needed to make it a worry-free for both you and your family member.

We both love enjoying the outdoors and letting your canine friend get some fresh air , excercise and much needed vitamin D Drop-In Visits: Open to visit when necessary to make your daily routine easier. Any request isn't too big or too small, from feeding, walking, maybe stopping by to give a bath, nail trim service, or even just to say hello and have your pet wag its tail for a little.

“Tanqueray was phenomenal with my sweet but anxious older little guy. She took his unique needs into consideration as she thoughtfully planned his stay. He was comfortable and happy, which I knew because he doesn’t usually go up to sitters to say bye when I pick him up. But he did this with her. He made new doggy friends on his walks (which he’s also not always up to) and he and Sir, a sweet little guy, got along wonderfully. I’m grateful for Tanqueray and the loving care she took of my pup.”
“Jenny is a fantastic dog sitter! We were a bit nervous to leave our 6 month old puppy when we went out of town. But Jenny took fantastic care of her. Jenny gave her lots of love, attention, and exercise. We would definitely re-book with Jenny in the future!”
“Karen and her family spoiled our dog Mavis!!! She had a great time while we were away. She enjoyed many walks and a lot of play time. We enjoyed the pictures, videos and updates from Karen. Knowing Mavis was in great hands helped us to enjoy our vacation even more.”
“First time working with them and they were great! We felt so comfortable leaving our two French bulldogs with Janette and family. Easy to communicate with and they sent us videos and pics every day! Will definitely book again!”
“This was my first time using Rover, and Samantha was utterly amazing caring for my dog, Guru, who was recently adopted from a shelter. Guru is very social, and her dogs got along wonderfully with him. Since Guru and I are still getting to know one another, it was so comforting to receive regular text, photo, and video updates on how he was doing. Samantha was extremely gracious, attentive, and understanding throughout the entire stay. I highly recommend her services!”
“Everything went very well. Lucy seemed happy and well taken care of. Malchom, Nicole and kids do a great job letting Lucy be part of the family. I’m sure Lucy enjoys being with the children. Would definitely keep using their services.”
“This was the first time of Bingo with Greg and Sonia. Bingo returned happy since she had the chance to make new friends and apparently boss them around ? We received pictures of Bingo as the days progressed and we could tell the difference of her getting more relaxed. We are booking again for Christmas ?”

I love my dog but he can be a jerk. Heather set up a meet and greet and it went really well. She provided excellent advice so when I left my dog with her he handled it well. She provided lots of attention to him and sent a video and pictures so I could see that he was content. I will definitely use her again if I get the opportunity!
Jean and Al were so great. They treated our girl like she was their own. We could tell how happy and comfortable she was with the pictures Jean sent and even when we picked her up as she was happy to keep hanging out and play while we talked whereas with a lot of other sitters, she’s been happy to go home asap.
Absolutely amazing! Wonderful caregivers, safe environment and pet friendly environment. Caregivers own pets and understand firsthand the concerns and needs of pet owners. Caregivers are compassionate, kind, trustworthy, and overall phenomenal! I would bring my cats there again in a second! Recommend!!
Danielle is amazing. She is unbelievably kind and accommodating. I really just needed some daycare once, maybe twice, for my pup while moving, but I could tell off the bat she cares about every dog that comes through her door. I ended up doing a handful of daycare days and boarding him. I know my dog can be a pain. He is an anxious old boy and can be high-maintenance at times. I had such peace of mind sending my dog to her. She sent me photos and updates. The only downside is I didn’t find her sooner before moving away. I got to pick up a tired, happy boy every time. If I ever need to board my dog again, I will definitely be making the drive to send him to her!
Trinity was fantastic with Brutus! She was super responsive before the stay, flexible with drop-off time, and asked great questions about his temperament. Throughout the stay she sent photos and updates so I never had to wonder how he was doing. Brutus settled in quickly, loved his walks, and from what it sounds Brutus was totally obsessed with her squeaker toys. It's clear she genuinely enjoys the dogs she cares for. Highly recommend and we'll definitely book again!
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!!!

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Lombard is $50 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $83 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
There are 5,526 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Lombard. About 91% of Lombard 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. 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.
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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.
