“Long review, but so many amazing things to say about Melissa! ⭐️ I’ve left my two corgis, Benjii and Rocco, with Melissa twice—once in March (~ 2 days) and again in April (~ 9 days) —and we absolutely love her! Benjii and Rocco couldn’t be more different: Rocco lives his best life, always happy and social, while Benjii is more reserved and prefers human company over other dogs. Melissa immediately understood their individual personalities and respected and cared for them accordingly & fully. She never pressured Benjii to interact, and she never held Rocco back from enjoying himself. She sent daily (or every other day) photos and videos, along with updates on their behavior and how things were going. I can’t begin to explain how it gave me so much peace of mind while I was away and to find that kind of attentiveness is SO SO RARE. Unlike the boarding center I used to take them too, which locked them up from 7pm until 7am—she kept them company even late at night. She’d sent me photos of Benjii just chillaxing beside her while Rocco played or was crashed out of tiredness lol. While I was away for those 9 days, it rained a lot, yet she still made sure they had playtime, and gave them both a bath before returning them & they came back smelling amazing!!! Melissa’s thoughtfulness, updates, and genuine care gave me so much peace of mind. It’s such a shame I found her right before moving, if not, she would’ve been my go-to ALWAYS. If you’re looking for someone who truly gets dogs or you’re on the fence, please listen and trust me and book with Melissa! I promise you, your fur babies will be in the best hands!! 🫶🏼🥺”
“Another excellent stay for Bella with Jessica! This is our 2nd stay with her, but it won’t be our last! I really appreciate all of the photos that Jessica sends - this greatly alleviates any stress of leaving our fur baby. You can tell that Jessica takes care to make a comfortable environment for the pets she watches and ensures they get plenty of exercise and love.”
“Thank you. Matthew is an excellent caregiver for my fur babies. They adore him and I always know they are well cared for. Matthew treats my fur babies like his own. I am thankful for all of the updates and pictures he provides me during their stay. His home is very warm and inviting for them and he keeps them well engaged. I I recommend if you are looking for a home environment for Pet care, you call Matthew.”
“Starr is an amazing sitter. We have boarded twice and will continue to count on her for future needs. Starr is kind and caring and takes such good care of Winston as if he is a member of her own family. She sends lots of photos and there is plenty of opportunity for playtime. I highly recommend Starr for your boarding needs.”
“Jenay kept my 11 month old dog Lucy for a weekend. This was Lucy's first time being away from home. I appreciate Jenay agreeing to me bringing Lucy a few days early to her home to meet her family. Everyone were loving to my puppy. Jenay kept me posted with pictures. She took Lucy for a walk and had plenty of lap time which Lucy loves. My mind was set at ease and I was able to enjoy my vacation. I will use Jenay again and hopefully she is available.”
“Kelly is wonderful! I appreciate all the pictures and updates I get while she is watching my pup! She is very kind and treats my dog like she is part of their family.”
“Our dog Dobby just finished her first tryout stay with Daniela. It seems like she had a good time and there weren't any big problems. Daniela kept us in the loop and sent lots of pics during the days. Dobby seems pretty happy with her stay, so we are as well. We will definitely be getting in touch with Daniela again for further dog watching.”
“Jamie and Aaron are awesome! They offered a meet-and-greet a few days before our pup's visit, giving us a chance to meet them, their two dogs, and cats. From the moment you meet them, you can tell they really love animals and want to make each of their "guests" feel safe and at home. In fact, I think Row felt so at home at Jamie and Aaron's, he would have been happy to move in! Jamie kept us updated and sent pictures and videos throughout our trip - it was so fun to see him playing with their pups and snuggling in with them on the couch. We'll gladly book another stay with Jamie and Aaron!”
“I felt like my fur babies had a great vacation where they were welcomed into the family. I love that the sitter worked from home so that my dogs could go outside anytime they needed. I felt my pets were safe and well taken care of with the sitter.”
“Wonderful experience with Nicole. She was very communicative and helped us out on fairly short notice over a holiday weekend. All three of our dogs were happy and seemed to have had made themselves right at home when we arrived for pickup. Thanks Nicole!”
“Ashley is such a great sitter! Moose had the best time with her and her family. I would absolutely recommend her and will definitely let Moose stay with her again in the future ☻”
“Bianca was a wonderful host on a short notice trip. She took great care of my 5 month old goldendoodle and gave me updates throughout the visit. Her dogs also got along well with mine and I think they became good buddies. Thanks, Bianca!”
“I have an older dog that I have never left alone with someone for multiple days so needless to say, I was nervous about going out of town for a few days. However, Christina was amazing. From pictures and videos each day to being understanding when my flight back into town was delayed for six hours, I truly can’t brag enough about my experience with her and would recommend her to anyone who needs their dog watched and taken care of.”
“This was my first time needing a sitter and I was pretty nervous about it. I've never had to leave my sweet boy anywhere other than the vet for a day. Carol was very accommodating. She allowed me to see where he would be, answered any questions I had and sent pictures to me to assure me he was ok. I was grateful for that. That helped ease my mind. I would definitely use her again if it should become necessary again. She's awesome!!”
“Shannon was absolutely incredible!! My senior toy poodle loved staying with her and even made some new friends. She was great and sent updates with pictures every few days so I got to see how he was doing. We will definitely be coming back!”
“Memphis loved her boarding experience with Aurora! I was sent with pictures, videos, and updates throughout the stay which was greatly appreciated. We will definitely be booking with Aurora again!”
“I was so grateful to find Simone over the holidays, and even more relieved to learn she had already met my dog through her previous sitter (who was her sister). Such a small world! Simone and her family are wonderful, loving, and clearly experienced with dogs. I felt confident knowing my pup was in great hands, and she had an excellent time. Highly recommend!”
“Nila had a wonderful time with Mrs. Amber and her family. Mrs. Amber consistently kept us updated and sent lots of pictures and videos. I highly recommend Mrs. Amber to watch your pups!”

Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
90% of Mascoutah sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Mascoutah landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Mascoutah 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 Mascoutah.
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 Mascoutah 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.
