“Excellent pet sitter! She boarded our puppy for two nights and took great care of her. Our puppy came home happy, healthy, and well-loved. Great communication and a caring environment. Highly recommend!”


“Elizabeth has now watched Murphy 3 times for me and she’s been great each time! He always looks happy in the updates she sends and the only concern I ever have is if he’s going to want to come home at the end of his stay. Will continue to book with her going forward!”

“Thanks so much for watching our puppers overnight on relatively short notice. They enjoyed themselves and we're exhausted and we got to go to the Japanese Festival for.the day worry free.”

“Cynthia and Robert were awesome! Very communicative and able to help on short notice. They went out of their way to make sure my JoJo was comfortable and welcomed him like one of their own fur babies. Would definitely recommend and plan to use their boarding services again in the future!”

“Jennifer was amazing. I received daily updates including photos and videos. I came home to two healthy and happy pups and couldn’t have asked for anything more. I think they were sorry to leave. I will definitely rebook if she’ll have us!”

“Wonderful experience. They treated my babies like one of their own. They sent a bunch of pictures and provided updates regularly. I had no worries about my pups care, I knew they were in good hands. I would definitely book with them again.”

“Elisa and her family took the best care of Baxter and I would highly recommend them to watch your puppies. We were nervous as we don't usually leave Baxter but Elisa ( and family & Norman) provided loving care. She sent updates and pictures, which we loved! The sweetest part of Baxter's stay was her sons drew pictures for Baxter! I can positively say, Baxter was a loved puppy! Thank you Elisa, Family, and Norman!”

“Otis has many special needs, and she cared for him like he was part of the family. Barbora went above and beyond, was very accommodating, and sent updates and pictures to keep me informed. It was such a relief knowing Otis was loved and so well cared for.”

“This was our 1st time using Rover and was a little nervous leaving my baby with someone i didnt know. My pup had a wonderful time, received updates and photos which helped keep my mind at ease. She was well taken care of and got to hav a vacation with other pups while we were gone. Will definitely recommend Shannon and will use her again in the future. Thank u again”

“My dog loved boarding with Katie. She kept my dog super active with lots of hikes and walks and I could tell my dog was comfortable with her and her home. Katie was super easy to work with as well.”

“Another great stay with Lauren! She communicated quickly and updated me with how Comet was doing. My shift ran a little long and Lauren was able to accommodate the delay when picking up. Thank you!”


“Felipe took great care of Frostie, proactively reaching out for details on feeding, daily schedule and medications. He is great on communication and sent daily check in messages with photos that was very helpful to feel comfortable even during being away for a longer period of time. Highly recommend Felipe!”

“Angela took amazing care of Kale while we were away. She took the cutest photos of him and sent great updates. I would definitely recommend a friend to utilize her services. She provided so much love to our pup and we are so grateful.”

“Rayna & Zach took great care of our pup! They were so kind, flexible, and easy to work with! My pup didn’t want to come home with us when we got there. I would definitely recommend them and their dogs are great as well 😊”

“Our little terrier mix and our big Irish Settler loved staying with Sarah and her family. Very loving home and plenty of fenced in backyard for play. Sarah was adaptable to our uncertainty time of arrival due to travel from NC to MO which we truly appreciated. Sarah’s home is perfect for visiting pups I highly recommend her for anyone who needs a place for their precious dogs to be while on vacation.”

“Brianna and her family were so awesome with our dog, Emmy. This was our first time using Rover and we couldn’t have been more pleased. Emmy had lots of play time, pets, and snuggles. She even came home with her own bag of home made doggie treats! I will book Brianna for future stays.”

“I needed someone to watch my 14 yr old dog, who has some anxiety issues on short notice. Amie had some great reviews so I contacted her and she was able to care for him, while I was away. I received updates and pictures throughout his stay. Which made me feel good about the care he was getting. I would definitely recommend Amie as a pet sitter, if you’re in need of one.”

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 McClusky 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 McClusky.
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 McClusky 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.
