“Leah did a fantastic job all around. She was very warm and responsive when I first booked my appointment. Met Sam and I outside so he could get to know her. Let me in so I could see how he'd be staying and meet her dog. She answered all my questions and sent messages and photos during his stay. I highly recommend booking with her, and will do so again myself in the future. :)”

“Our pup did great at Mandi’s! I didn’t have to worry at all because she sent pictures of his day and an update of what he did. She was so sweet to send him home with a personalized bandana and a jar of homemade treats! Definitely recommend!”

“Sarah took great care of our dog while we were out of town. Our dog tends to be anxious in new environment. I like he makes new friends at Sarah's place. I appreciate Sarah's clear communication and her understanding when I misread the time for the pickup.”


“I have left both of my dogs with Katie many many times in the last year and a half and I’m always so happy with how she treats them. They see her and run to her!”


About: I have 10+ years of experience with animals. Growing up by a dirt road in Alabama ,I always made sure to care for and find homes for them while also having our own, I’ve taken college corses on training dogs although didn’t finish due to becoming a mother. We have a large backyard fenced, covered& partly enclosed patio & love to give. Animals are truly a wonderful being to have around and I want to teach my children the importance of them. I’ve watched big dogs & small dogs although starting off with this app I’m looking to watch small dogs. I take my oldest son to library, we can spend anywhere between 1-4 hours there & I pick up my youngest from his program at 3pm (right down the road) other than weekly/biweekly grocery/shopping trips, I’m at the house. We treat your dog like our family so that means ofc they are allowed on the couch and we have a fenced in back yard & covered patio while we love to spend time outside so you can be assured majority of the time we will be right there beside em. I do have a cat who spends majority of the time in our bedroom.
“Tami is the best!! I knew when I was leaving my little guy with her that he was in EXCELLENT hands. She was excellent at updating me throughout the time I was gone with pictures and texts. She was incredibly careful and attentive with my little guy and I would absolutely recommend her to anybody needing her services!”


“I was happy with Stacie watching my dogs, Stacie is nice, and pleasant, my dogs like her as well. Stacie sent me a picture of my dogs at her place. My dogs looked happy.. Thank you Stacie.”


“Ebony made sure Creux felt right at home, she was extremely accommodating and very attentive to his needs. She sent frequent updates and I appreciated it. Creux didn't want to come home.”

“On short notice, we were invited to stay with family in the Springfield, Il area, in the midst of a cross county trip with our two small dogs. The only catch was the place we were staying didn't allow dogs. We found Tara on Rover.com and it was a perfect match! She was wonderful with our rescue pups and we were able to relax and visit with family knowing they were safe in her loving home and not stressed out in a kennel somewhere. Thanks to Tara we all ha”

“Linda & her husband were amazing. My dog had a great time, and I loved getting photo updates. I could tell my dog was happy and well cared for. It’s such a relief to find someone so trustworthy and attentive. I’ll definitely be booking with Linda again in the future and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, responsible sitter!”

“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!”

“We had a great experience leaving our Aussidoodle, Willie, with Cynthia and her sweet lab, Luna. I received numerous pictures and was happy to know Willie had a very large, fenced in yard for roaming and exercise. Cynthia treated Willie like her own and gave positive feedback about his stay. I won't hesitate to request Cynthia for future boarding.”

“Rachael and Joe were very accommodating to our needs and allowed us to visit their home before booking. They treated Cody as if he was one of their own. They even allowed Cody to sleep with them. They spoiled him rotten lol. And he got along with their dogs very well. I will definitely use Rachel and Joe again and feel very comfortable and have a piece of mind that Cody is being well taken care of.”

“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.”

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Medora 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 Medora.
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 Medora 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.

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.
