“Chisato was INCREDIBLE. I was so nervous to leave our rescue dog for an extended vacation. Chisato gave her SO much attention and kept kept me updated at least once a day. Just one day in to the vacation, I already felt at ease and could relax knowing our baby was in great care.”
“Jean is caring and very attentive to my dog. She gave multiple updates throughout his time there and paid attention to his behavior and asked questions. Very highly recommended”
“Shauna and Peter took such wonderful care of our dog Gracie. Not only did they follow our instructions for her basic care, such as food, medications, daily walks and play, but the whole family gave her so much love and attention. She is a very affectionate dog and they treated her as if she was their own. We were on a long trip overseas and Shauna’s daily communication and photos gave us such a peace of mind that our sweet pup was doing just fine. We feel so blessed to have found them and can not thank them enough for the perfect care they gave Gracie! We highly recommend Shauna and Peter to care for your dog. They are the best!”
“Dee was absolutely wonderful with my husky Holly. I felt totally confident that she was safe and well cared for. I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing my dog was in great hands ! I highly recommend Dee !”
“Sunshine was amazing. I don’t think my dog even missed me. He was spoiled. Sunshine has 2 amazing children who obviously love dogs. You can’t go wrong leaving your dog with Sunshine. We hope to use her again.”
“Leaving your pet with someone you don’t know is hard but when I first met Jackie I knew she would be a good match for us and our dog Ivy. We loved the videos and pictures and according to her young son we need to bring her back. ?”
“Couldn't have gotten a more reliable and perfect sitter for my doggo than D'Artagnan! I'm extremely happy he was able to accommodate me when I needed someone urgently, but wanted to make sure that my dog would be taken care of. Thank you D'Artagnan!!”
“Carolyn is very observant and has great instincts when it comes to understanding how Aspen s feeling and what she needs to feel safe. Carolyn is also sensitive to adjust her methods - in Aspen’s case - the way safety gates are used, to ensure safety and the best experience. She’s really a wonderful pet sitter.”
“Melody was so awesome! Very responsive and sent tons of pictures and videos of our pup while we were gone. We did a meet up with her prior to our trip so she could meet our dog and get acquainted/ask questions etc. During his stay, they went on lots of walks and had so much play time. Melody goes out of her way to make your pup her number one priority. She had extra toys and even got him treats! She even gave some advice for some of his skin/stomach issues she noticed. Will definitely be bringing our pup back to her!”
“Jessica took great care of Avery. She was boarding another rat terrier at the same time and took steps to ensure the two dogs got along at feeding time. Her daughter made sure Avery got lots of love and exercise. She came home happy & healthy. Overall it was a great experience.”
“She was amazing and so easygoing considering it was last minute and over the holiday weekend. She treated Bowie like one of her own and we will definitely consider her again!!!”
“Kim was so good with my dogs. She had nothing but positive things to say. My older dog is 17 and can be a handful. Kim was understanding and made sure she was well taken care of. So grateful we found her!!”
“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!”
“My pet had spent the fantastic days in her house because I felt he didn’t want to go back home with me. I appreciated about what I could get good travel due to her care.”
“Michelle was awesome! She sent daily updates with photos and updated me on my dogs health and how his day has been. My dog has a lot of energy and she takes him on good walks. She met with us before hand to meet my dog and go over the process of what drop off looked like which made things super easy! Will definitely book with her again.”
“Maricela is an amazing host! She was so flexible with my dates especially during the holiday season. I would recommend her 100x times! She’s great and would definitely use her again. Piper loved every minute of it!”
“Ewa was an amazing sitter for my Basenji, he enjoyed his time very much while staying with her. I really liked the setup that enabled my dog to go in and out on his own when he needed to and she showered him with love and attention the entire stay. I will be contacting Ewa in the future.”

We used Danielle for an overnight boarding with Roxy and she was amazing! We had several updates throughout the day, which was nice. Roxy went on several walks and had lots of loving and attention. We use Danielle all the time for doggy day care, and just can't say enough nice things about her. She really loves dogs and does such an amazing job taking care of Roxy. We feel so relaxed knowing Roxy is in great hands! Going to use her again for doggy day care and for overnight!
From start to finish, Barbara was helpful and welcoming to our family and Kylo. Kylo definitely missed her and wanted to say goodbye. We will definitely use Barbara again because she took amazing care of our family dog. Thank you for all the updates and for looking out for our dog.
I knew from the moment I met Jill, that Molly and Duke would be well loved and cared for when we were away. She's warm and welcoming and definitely a dog lover! She shared some pictures of the dogs and a video of her son playing catch with Duke. They had a fun stay, no doubt! Thank you Jill. We will be back soon!

The average cost for Pet Boarding in McHenry on Rover is $33.3 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

There are 1,166 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in McHenry. About 93% of McHenry 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.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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 personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
