“Thank you Judy for an outstanding experience for our beloved dog and for all of us. Your love and caring for Tesla was so wonderful. You communicated twice a day with pictures and updates and they were detailed and reassuring. We really looked forward to our mini chats. Your responsiveness was also great. We knew we could reach you at any time, not that we needed to 😊. You also provided a safe and happy environment for him and he loved being in your home. He was a truly contented pup while he was with you. Words cannot express how grateful we are to you, for providing a home away from home for our dog. Thanks also for grooming him and keeping him in a tip top condition. We cannot say enough about the wonderful service and care you provided. We enjoyed our vacation so much more knowing he was in the best care we could have arranged for him. Thanks again and any dog is lucky to have a home with you while their owners need to be away. We certainly were. I cannot recommend you enough. You are truly the best!!!! 🐕💕🙏🥰”
“This was our second time boarding Haru with Hannah and we can not express how excited Haru was. At first he was a bit hesitant since it was his first time, but after his first experience he was just so ready to have fun! Hannah and her family are so kind and such a wonderful family. It was such a relief seeing the photos and updates Hannah sends showing that Haru himself is having a vacation with his friends. Our family is so grateful for Hannah and her family! Thank you so much! \(^-^)/”
“Kyle was our first Rover boarding experience. It was important for us to find an in-home situation where our dog would be the only dog and wouldn’t be alone for extended periods of time. Kyle’s setup was a great fit for us. His work-from-home schedule provided consistency during her stay, and his calm demeanor helped her feel comfortable. At our meet-and-greet, she leaned into Kyle right away, which was a great sign since she can sometimes take a little time to warm up to new people. She seemed comfortable and settled during her stay, which was the most important thing to us. Kyle was responsive when we checked in about how she was doing and sent photo updates from their walks. She was well cared for, and we appreciated knowing she had someone looking after her attentively while we were away. We would certainly rebook with him.”
“Jean was amazing with my golden. I loved getting pictures and videos daily and knowing that he was having a great time. My big guy has terrible anxiety during storms and is on a high dose of anxiety medication that sometimes works. When a bad storm rolled in Jean was compassionate and loving and notified me about his condition. As a very overprotective dog mom I trust Jean and we will definitely be using her again.”
“Jessica is fantastic! She took our pup to the park and on her errands which made him very happy. Very communicative too the entire time with photos and videos. And she takes excellent photos to boot!”
“Cecilia was excellent! She stayed in contact regarding important matters only, while away on business. She was professional and I received picture updates regarding my pup. He really enjoyed his stay. I WILL CERTAINLY BE WORKING WITH CECILIA AGAIN FOR FUTURE TRIPS :-).”
“We had a wonderful experience! Bingo is a shy and cautious dog, but she made him feel comfortable and took such great care of him. She kept us updated throughout his stay, sent us his photos and videos, and was always easy to communicate with, which we really appreciated. It was clear that Bingo was happy and well cared for. Highly recommend!!”
“We were so happy with the care that was provided for our two dogs. We received pictures of our dogs. They looked happy. She alway went the extra mile for our dogs. One of the dogs was licking his paw alot and she provided care for him. She kept us informed and we were confident of her care. We are so thankful and will definitely recommend her with your dog.”
“If I could give six stars, I would. This is the first time we used Rover and Leigh and Richard could not have been more wonderful. I received daily pictures and updates on how my pup was doing and I don’t think he wanted to leave when I came to get him! I would highly recommend them.”
“We trusted Julio with our golden retriever while out of town for a week. We received many smiling photos of our pup assuring us she was in great hands. Julio is nice to work with and we’ll be boarding with him again.”
“We couldn’t be happier with Archy’s stay! He came home relaxed and happy, and it was clear he felt right at home. The frequent updates and adorable photos were such a thoughtful touch and really put our minds at ease the whole time. We’re so grateful for the care, attention, and patience. Thank you for handling him with such kindness. We truly appreciate everything and will absolutely book again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter!”
“Winnie had a great time playing with Loki! I got photo updates and it was easy to coordinate drop off and pick up. So easy, will definitely book again!”
“Michelle was great and went completely out of her way to pick up meds for our dog and administer while we were out on vacation. Always nice knowing your pets are with someone who truly cares for their well-being.”
“Great experience start to finish! Took care of our dog very well and provided daily updates with many photos. We will definitely be trust Balaji with our dog again!”
“Michael was a great Rover sitter. He answered all of our questions during a meet and greet, so we’d feel comfortable leaving our dog with him. We got many pictures through out the week (as we requested) so we knew our pup was settling in well while we were gone. He was very flexible with dates as well when we needed to make a slight change to our drop off day. Would definitely recommend Michael and will consider him for future bookings for our pup!”
“Marta and her family are amazing! If you are looking for someone to take care of your angel look no further. Marta is the best person for the job! Not only does she take fantastic care, but your dog will be in a loving family environment as well. I recommend her thoroughly!”
“This was my first time using rover and Katerina was amazing with Mochi! She was great about staying in touch with videos and pictures, it really put my mind at ease seeing him interact so well with her family! I will definitely be calling on her again!”
“Jae and her family were amazing to my sweet puppy. I could not have asked for a better family to take care of my dog; we felt absolutely blessed to have such a perfect home when we were gone. The entire family treated her like she was part of the family, and I always felt comforted on my vacation to receive pictures of my dog enjoying her days with her interim family. I will absolutely only use Jae now. And our dogs have become great friends too, so what an incredible bonus!”

I had a great experience with this dog boarding service! They took excellent care of my dog and kept me updated throughout the stay. I especially loved receiving daily pictures—it gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. The communication was great, and I could tell they genuinely cared about my dog. I would definitely use their service again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring place to board their dog!
We are so grateful for Balaji and his utmost care during our dog Chucky’s stay. He was very well taken care of and we were kept up to date everyday while we were away, which we appreciated a lot. Chucky has enjoyed his time here and I recommend Balaji as a dog sitter to everyone looking for an experienced sitter who truly cares about dogs.
We are so thankful for the wonderful care our dog received! From the very beginning, we felt completely comfortable knowing he was in such good hands. Marissa sent us regular pictures and updates while we were away, which gave us so much peace of mind and made us so happy to see how well he was doing. ♥️
We couldn't have been happier with the care our two Shih Tzus received during their 9-day stay. From the moment we left, we felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. One thing we especially appreciated was the regular updates. Yuliia sent adorable photos and videos almost every day, along with the sweetest comments about what the dogs were doing and how they were settling in. It meant so much to us while we were away and really helped us feel connected to them. It's clear that she genuinely loves dogs and treats them like family. Our pups were happy, well cared for, and clearly comfortable with her. We would absolutely trust her with them again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and communicative sitter.
Jessie and Jeeps (her dog) were fantastic! She was accommodating with our dogs routine and walked him many times each day. She was extremely communicative and sent many pictures which made me as a dog mama feel so much more comfortable using rover for the first time. Highly recommend Jessie to watch your pups!
Stephanie is the ABSOLUTE BEST! My pup is high anxiety and didn't do well at those fancy pet resorts. Stephanie made sure he was well cared for while we were out of the country for 2 weeks. She asked that I write down his daily routine so she can closely stick to his schedule. She also sent daily updates and photos to ease my mind knowing how tough it was for me to be away for a long period. Knowing she is studying to be a veterinary assistant was icing on the cake. My pup definitely loved spending time with her and was attached to her warm and caring personality from the very beginning. I highly recommend booking her for all of your pet sitting needs. I will definitely book her again!
This was Theodore’s first time staying with someone new, and Debi made it an excellent experience. She was caring, attentive, and kept us updated with photos and messages. Theodore came back happy and relaxed - clearly well cared for. We’ll definitely book with Debi again!

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.
93% of sitters in Long Grove 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 Long Grove 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 Long Grove.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Long Grove 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.
