“Antonina stepped in on short notice which i greatly appreciate! She is a nice and communicative person. She sent pictures of my baby. Lilu looked so happy and well taken care of. I definitely recommend her and I will be using her again.”
About: Growing up, my mother would buy and sell dogs. It was quite traumatic. I vowed to be better than her. I've had my dog Odin for 8 years, and I will happily care for your pet as well. Fortunately, my trauma is your gain. I'm well versed on most dog breeds and I know how to research breeds if something comes up. You can sit back and relax because my care for your dog will be the best. My commute is only 15mins away. So I take care of the dogs in the morning, then I care for them again on my lunch break. Then again after work and throughout the night with my own dog, Odin. I have several dog beds and comfy spaces for them to rest. I have a zone in my home that is for dogs only. They can grab a toy from the toy box or they can look out the balcony window as shades are always open for your pupper!
About: I have had dogs my entire life and love them so much! I have experience with puppies as well as our senior friends. Walks and playtime are my specialty! I work at home and am able to take great care of your pup. I have a yard and am close to a park for plenty of outside time. I can adjust to the routine your dog is used to. I am very flexible. I take one client at a time so my whole focus will be on your dog. Just let me know your needs.
“Katerina was awesome! Our pups seem to have loved their stay! She was really fast with communications and it was nice to see some pictures of them enjoying themselves! Would use again!!”
“Sitter was absolutely fantastic. Very responsive whenever I had a question. Is very knowledgeable about her craft in watching the dogs. Sent me constant updates to let me know when she fed, walked or gave meds to my dog. She has an extreme attention to detail. I mentioned the reason for the sitting and then she messaged us wishing the person a happy birthday and it was very heartfelt. All in all outstanding experience and will use again.”
“Kaylee was super great!! Edy loved staying there and got tons of energy and excitement out too! We got tons of pictures from her overnight and lots of updates. Our dog came home super happy and tired!”
About: Thanks for checking out my profile. I've been caring for cats and dogs my whole life; 17 animals over the years. I currently have 2 well socialized doggies and 1 adult cat. I am also fostering 2 kittens. I love my little snuggle buttons and am constantly training, playing, petting, and caring for my animals. I would love my animals to be well socialized with many animals so thought Rover would be a great option for that. Also, I'm 10 weeks pregnant so I'm looking for things I love to do that I can do out of my home and I am biologically wired to provide snuggles right now! I work a 3-5 hour shift at my med spa, 3 to 5 days per week. I generally wake around 8, do breakfast for everyone, work from home for an hour, take the doggies for a walk, do kitten playtime, leave for work between 12-3, get everyone snack/treats, doggies get a second walk around 4:30, then I am home for the rest of the evening. I do dinner for myself and the animals, playtime, and then last chance for snacks. The animals sleep in my room with me, we love to snuggle! I love that the animals have each other to interact with even while I'm at work. We do not use any crates. I provide 4 bowls of double purified water so there is no risk of anyone going thirsty. I am a nurse so more than capable of following any feeding or medication regimens you may need. I am very big on socializing my animals. I encourage them to be vocal and friendly. My cat Jon Snow has over 50 distinctive vocalizations. To keep myself fit I do two dog walks per day, about an hour and 20 min total at a leisurely pace. I am steps away from Doug Lindberg park so we walk past ducks, otters, herons, and lots of other doggies (although I keep my distance since I don't know vaccine history or temperament). I have a 6 ft fenced in yard and let the dogs out frequently when it's sunny.
“I was very anxious about leaving my girls while I was on vacation. But Thomas and Kelly took great care of them and sent lots of pictures to ease my mind. I was able to enjoy my vacation much more since I knew my girls were in good hands.”
About: I have had dogs my whole life. Watching family and friends dogs gives me great joy! Dogs have been a part of my whole life. I love them dearly, my sister in law travels quite often which gives me the opportunity to watch her two dogs. One is a puppy full of energy and they are so fun to spend time with and play. Love going on walks to the forest preserves out in nature. let me be your dogs new friend. I work four days a week Tuesday thru Friday until 3:30pm. I'm available for boarding Friday nights thru Monday. I can take dogs for walks on Mondays, Weekends, and Tuesday-Friday after 4. I have a big home plenty of space to run around and play. My backyard is good size and fenced in. I can update you with photos of your dog. I can maintain the feeding schedule as required. I will make sure your dog has plenty outdoor time walks or just playing in my yard.
“My pup Pickles had the best stay. Flexible pick up and drop off. She sent multiple updates. It feels good to leave your pup with some one you know you can trust. Deidre is the best!”
“I am very happy with Yessica care of Oreo. She provided daily updates with pictures of my fur baby. Her family treated Oreo like a member of their precious family. I will be using her services again.”
“Cindy is an amazing “step mom” to Rex. She and her family take great care of Rex and communicate very well. We also appreciate the pictures and videos she sends. Definitely recommend and will use her again and again!”
“Five very waggy stars for Meghan (and her sweet pup, Ralphie)! Meghan is absolutely incredible. From the moment we arrived, it was clear that she is a true dog lover with tons of experience, and she knew exactly how to make our dog feel safe, happy, and completely at home. Our dog was treated like a member of her family and had the time of his life playing with Ralphie and the other dogs. The adorable photos and videos gave us so much peace of mind while we were away...and honestly, I think he was a little sad to come home, which is probably the highest compliment a dog can give. We will absolutely book again. Weekend at Ralphie’s is officially dog-approved!”
“Our girl was well cared for!!!! I was super hesitant to let Zoey stay with D’Artagnan at first since he has a dog of his own. Our Zoey had resource aggression and likes to take over people’s spaces. D’artagnan and his partner are clearly well versed in everything dog care and not only took great care of her but effectively set boundaries for Zoey. I appreciate all the pics and notes and felt at ease knowing she was okay while we were out of town. Happy to have a loving and trustworthy person to take care of our baby in the future.”
“Gumbo always gets spoiled with you and I know that I never have to worry about him during his stay. Thanks for making him and us feel so comfortable. Thanks for all the pictures. He’ll see you again soon! 😊”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Long Grove
This was the first time my 10yo dog, Finley, did not have someone stay with him in his own home. Kyle had been recommended to me by a friend’s daughter. We did a meet and greet prior to my leaving, and tho it went well, I was quite anxious about leaving Finn. Fortunately, all my fears were unfounded; each day I received a photo and/or a brief update. Finn was completely fine and quite nonchalant about my return. Kyle gave him his meds, more walks than I do, and I don’t think he was alone once! I feel great about having a resource in Kyle and his family for future trips!
Logan was an amazing pet sitter. She took care of our three cats for three days and two nights. Logan is very patient and nurturing with pets. She gave us daily updates and sent adorable pictures. She’s very responsible and is amazing with animals. We’d highly recommend her as a pet sitter.
We had a wonderful experience with Balaji. We needed a sitter for our two week international trip and were nervous because this was our one-year-old toy poodle's first time being away from us. From the very beginning, Balaji reassured us that our dog would be well cared for. He even offered a short trial stay at his home so our dog could become familiar with the environment before the boarding stay. During that two hour trial stay, Balaji sent us photos and videos, which gave us confidence that our dog was comfortable and in good hands. Throughout the two week boarding period, Balaji sent multiple photos and videos every day, allowing us to see that our dog was comfortable and receiving good care. He was also very responsive and replied to our messages very quickly. Knowing that our dog was in such caring hands made it much easier for us to enjoy our trip. We highly recommend Balaji to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter!
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!

There are 5,256 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Long Grove. About 91% of Long Grove 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.

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 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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.
