“Milo appeared to have a wonderful time with Sarah and Todd. I have no reservation to leave him with them again. The proximity to their home and mine is also a positive factor. They were so positive in showing pictures of him to me. They also made comments about his behavior which I appreciated and gave me much comfort. I had no worries about his care. He enjoyed playing with the other dogs that they boarded and experienced his first cat! All went very well with his first home boarding adventure with this family.”
“Our dogs were in great hands while we were gone. She sent pics and updates which we enjoyed. The dogs looked very content in their new surroundings. I will definitely call Pam whenever we need a pet sitter. She was excellent and the dogs were happy to see us. Thank you so much Pam and family!”

“We are new to Springfield and met Taylor when searching for extended stay for our (F) Lab. We are very grateful for finding her and her dog. Taylor was very receptive and caring, provided a safe and clean home for our pup, Maggie. She is an experienced dog-mom that is very good with communications. We will use her again.”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was 5 years old! Currently I have a 85 lb lab/pit mix, and a 65 lb mut! I love to play with your dogs by playing with their toys with them, talking them on long walks, giving all the cuddles the want, loading them up with love and pets, and staying on their routine like they would if you were there! I’m a stay at home mom so my schedule is flexible! Willing to work with all routines and schedules. Also willing to bring them to the dog park! Your fur babies are in great hands with me! I almost always have open availability, just let me know what you need! Available as early as 8 am and as late as you need for the rest of the day. I have a fenced in yard and two fur babies of my own to keep them company. I also don’t mind animals being in my vehicle so I can take your fur baby to the dog park. I also love exercise so long walks are perfectly fine with me. Since my schedule is open I can keep up with your fur babies routine.
About: I have been caring for dogs my entire life. I have experience bathing, walking, and playing with Chihuahua , Dachshund, Yorkie, Coton de Tuléar, Pitbulls,Boxers, and so many more! **Prices accounted for Rover’s fee** My schedule is fairly flexible to meet you and your pet’s needs! I do ask for request to be submitted at least a day in advance. My interactions with the animal depends on your pet’s interactions with me. For example, if your pet likes cuddles and has alot of energy. I would match that energy with various games and of course snuggle with them. However if your pet is the complete opposite and like to relax all day, I can do that too!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Lowder home-away-from-home, 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 Lowder.
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 Lowder 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 , 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 .
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.
