“Shirley is super sitter. Sent me cool slo mo vid of my pooch playing tricks. I was traveling thru and wanted to go to show in Chicago. She came to motel and picked up Bella. Highly recommend Shirley !!”
“First time using Rover and I will tell you that you can't go wrong with them findimg you a trusting and loving sitter for your fur babies. I picked Ann because of her great profile. Conversation and our meet and greet. She and her entire family are amazing. Their love for their own animals and our baby was outstanding. They told us about their history with their own fur babies and it showed us how much love they have in their hearts and home for all. I would pick them every time to take care of my Cara. Cara adapted immediately with their babies and with each of the family members. They updated us with pics and even a photo shoot that their daughter did. So cute and loving. Cara hugged Ann and gave her her approval immediately. When we picked her up she was with Ann's husband and they were love love as we call ot w Cara. We couldn't be more blessed to have Ann and her family be part of Cara's life. They have become part of our family as well. If you are looking for a sitter Ann is the best. The accommodations with her lovely yard and loving home you can't go wrong with. She will give you the peace of mind that your baby will be in great hands. Thank you Ann and her Family. Thank you Rover for finding great people like Ann.”
“John did a great job with our 125lb Bernese Mtn Dog, Georgia. From the pictures we received every day, it was clear Georgia was getting a lot of love and attention. She had a fenced in back yard and a very friendly playmate. We definitely plan to use John again!”
“Thank you so much for taking care of our Ricky and Casper :) They came home happy and exhausted from all the blast they had. We really appreciate the picture updates; it was comforting to see them enjoying themselves. You're a fantastic dogsitter, and your dogs were excellent host. We’ll definitely reach out to you again in the future!”
“Where do I even begin?! Honestly. I’ve read that they are “GOD SENDS” and it is true. They are truly some of the kindest and most caring people I’ve ever met. From the moment they walked in, my puppy was instantly comfortable with them (which never happens that fast!). You can just feel how much they genuinely love animals. They didn’t just take care of my puppy — they spoiled them with love, attention, and so much patience. I got daily updates, adorable photos, and sweet messages that made me smile every time. It was such a relief knowing my little one was being cared for by someone so warm and trustworthy. And the sweetest touch? They even brought special keepsakes as a little surprise — it was so thoughtful and showed how much heart they put into what they do. My puppy came home happy, calm, and clearly adored. I couldn’t recommend them all more. They’re responsible, compassionate, and truly have the biggest heart. If you’re lucky enough to have them take care of your dog, you can rest easy knowing your pup is in the very best hands. 🐶💛 I will baked my sweet, but crazy pup there again and again!!!!”
“Maria was the best and took care of baby boy. I felt at peace and enjoyed my vacation knowing he was in good hands. She provided photos and videos. I will definitely book again.”
“Emily was very responsive and kept me up to date on how things were going with lots of pics/videos. It’s our second time booking and feel very confident our dog feels comfortable/safe with her!”
“This is one of the best experiences we've had with a dog sitter. She was so communicative and kind to our dogs. They genuinely haven't come home this happy in a while. 10/10 would recommend”
“Bailey is a dog whisperer. She took care of our poodle mix over the holiday and was extremely communicative and sent pics and videos/ so that we knew he was in good hands. She is so sweet and has a genuine understanding and love for dogs. Highly recommend! !”
“Elizabeth took such great care of my dog. I will definitely book with her again and cannot recommend her highly enough. After a week away, I returned to a very happy and content pup! I know my dog loved spending time with Elizabeth and her family. She had a yard to play in and lots of attention and cuddles.”
“Our Bernie loved staying with Joe. He understands dogs through and through, and maybe even more important, he understands and appreciates the quirks and idiosyncrasies of particular dogs. He kept us well informed and accommodated our schedule. Bernie would go back in a heartbeat, I’m sure, and we would be happy knowing she was in good hands.”
“Tamara had great communication and made me feel at ease since it was my first time using this service. My dog loved her stay, and came home tired and happy! Will definitely book again when I need it. Thank you!”
“Angel has been a great sitter for my two dogs! We have a very elderly dog that needs a lot of attention and Angel has been so great with him. My dogs always come home happy and seem to have a great time when staying with him!”
“Such a great family household — I felt very comfortable leaving my kids with them— I know they got tons of attention, love and play during their stay— I would definitely go back!”
“Jenny was very lovely to work with! She was able to take a last minute booking for me, and took care of my doggo while I was on a business trip. She was always responsive, and frequently updated me on how my dog was doing in her care (messages, photos, etc). I will definitely be working with her again!”
“Christine was great! She had excellent communication, and we got lots of pictures/videos while we were away! Charlie had a blast and made some new friends!”

Christine was able to accommodate our very last minute need for boarding and was a wonderful caregiver for our older dog, Luna. She took her on multiple walks a day, managed her meds well and sent us daily updates with photos :) Christine’s love for animals is evident - she’s very kind and I will definitely keep her at the very top of our list for any future Luna-care needs.
So grateful for Tamara and her pups! It’s a fun vacation for Wiggles every time she stays with them. Wiggles, unfortunately, wore a cone and itchy paws when we dropped her off and Tamara was so helpful making sure she had her medicine 2x a day and topical on Wiggles. When we returned, Wiggles was feeling so much better! 💖
She and her husband were great! They took really good care of my dog, and she sent me pictures throughout the stay, which I really appreciated. I could tell my dog was in good hands, and I’m very happy with the care she received. I would definitely recommend them! 🐶❤️
Michelle was prompt in communicating whenever something came up with Bramble that she needed clarification on. She was quick to respond for all the administrative arranging also. She was easy-going and calm. Bramble seemed comfortable being with her. I got daily photos to enjoy. I believe people would be very satisfied and secure leaving their pet with Michelle. I was!
Janeth took such great care of my senior dog while we were away for a few days. I appreciated that she sent me updates and I was able to relax knowing my dog was comfortable and in a calm environment. I would absolutely recommend Janeth and would definitely board with Janeth again!
Alicia, was an outstanding host for our pups.she met us at a park before booking to get to know the dogs and had me over to her place so I could see where they would stay. I have two bigger dogs and one is a senior. She gave meds no problem. One of the pups was feeling sick from the extreme heat. She was quick to switch to a mild diet to keep him comfortable. She updated daily with photos and videos of how they were doing. I am not sure that you will find a more conscientious, loving, and communicative pet sitter. She was amazing.
I left my baby puppy with Jasmin and her husband for a week, and they were absolutely amazing. They kept in contact the whole time, and updated me with occasional pictures and videos. She’s so nice, and after our first meeting I was completely comfortable leaving my little puppy in her care. It’s always been incredibly important that my dogs receive adequate attention and care, and I know she did the absolute most when it comes to my Moonpie. I’d definitely book again.
Athena is BEYOND WONDERFUL. I was driving into Chicago from out of town, only about 90 minutes away from dropping my pups off with their original sitter when he had to cancel. Immediately, I went into solution mode, scrambling to find someone to care for my three babies. Athena responded promptly and swooped in to help on extremely short notice. Athena was trustworthy, sent lots of photo updates, and my pups took to her right away. They clearly enjoyed exploring her fenced backyard and seemed completely comfortable in her care. When I picked them up, we talked for quite a while, and I was so grateful that she answered the call when I needed help. She is truly a kind soul with a sweet spirit, and I genuinely feel like God placed her on our path. She is so loving and treats my babies like they are on vacation; I call her home Disney World! 🤣
Pax had such a fun time at Karen’s house! They played a lot of frisbee and she had tons of toys for him to play with. Karen was super on top of things, very kind, and she sent us lots of pictures and updates! Pax seemed completely at home and totally at ease there. Thank you Karen!!

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Lyons on Rover is $53 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 5,457 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Lyons. About 91% of Lyons 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.
