“If you want complete peace of mind, book Twanna W. immediately! She recently cared for my senior golden retriever pit mix, H'Raka, for four days and treated him like royalty. She made sure he got plenty of exercise, kept me updated with photos and videos, and followed through with my request and bought him his own bed to make sure he was comfortable. H'Raka loved romping with her two boys and came home incredibly happy. Twanna’s generosity and attentiveness are unmatched. I am so grateful for her and will definitely use her services again!”

About: I’ve been dog watching for about 4 years now. I started in college and began to enjoy it. I have had 4 dogs at once before and I loved it! Whatever you prefer for your fur baby will be done! If they need to be walked 6 times a day, we will do it! Love will be given to any animal in my care! I have a fenced backyard for them to play around in and there is also a trail nearby to walk if that’s better! Every need will be met

“Monica and Calvin are amazing dog sitters! They were responsible and responsive, communicating frequently and in a timely manner. And you could tell our dog was so happy and comfortable being with them - she ate every meal, which is rare when she's in a new situation, and quickly made herself at home. She clearly loved being with them, and that gave us such peace of mind! We'll definitely use them again to watch our pooch!”

“I was so nervous about using a dog sitter for my 2 fur babies. I was especially concerned about my youngest dog who we adopted from an animal shelter because she is fearful of people she doesn’t know. MariaJose quickly put my mind and heart at ease. She boarded Prince and Bella for a week. Not only did she send messages to let me know they were doing well, she also sent pictures and videos. My babies were happy and well taken care of. I definitely recommend her as a sitter.”

“Lauren has taken care of my dog Kylo, three times and I couldn't be happier with her care. Lauren is an amazing dog sitter and I always feel comfortable leaving Kylo with her. Since Kylo is diabetic it is especially important that he stays on his feeding schedule and receives his insulin injections on time, and Lauren is incredibly responsible and attentive to his needs. She provides multiple updates throughout the day, including pictures, detailed messages and even Wooftrax updates so I know how long his walks are. Kylo is very comfortable with her, and she does such a wonderful job of making him feel safe and cared for. I feel incredibly lucky to have found such a trustworthy and caring dog sitter for our baby. We truly appreciate everything Lauren does for our precious pup and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, compassionate, and attentive pet sitter.”

About: I have a special way of connecting with every dog I meet. I've rescued stray dogs from the streets in California since I was a young adult, and I’ve had dogs of my own since I was a little girl. I volunteered with Bully Rescue Fresno in California during college and worked there for a year. My love for dogs has always been part of who I am. A close friend and former Rover sitter encouraged me to sign up as a sitter on Rover. She believes I am good at caring for dogs, show them as much love as I did my own, and that I'm a fun person any dog could ask for. So here I am, and I want to gain experience caring for dogs. I'm a deaf mom of three girls and two dogs. I’ve been staying home since my third baby was born in August and working remotely. My work hours are very flexible, so I can take care of the dogs as much as I can while I’m home. I have fence yard, two adorable dogs, and three young children. We all love dogs and are friendly here. I can take care of dogs while doing errand at home since im staying home.

Matthew and Leslie did a wonderful job taking care of Ronan! It is clear that they genuinely love what they do, and that makes all the difference. Knowing Ronan was in the care of people who truly enjoy and care about animals gave me such peace of mind. I appreciate the love, attention, and care they provided. I would absolutely recommend Matthew and Leslie to anyone looking for trustworthy, compassionate pet sitters. Thank you both for taking such great care of Ronan.

Dara was so great with our Nolan. This was the first time he had done any overnight and away time from us since we adopted him early this year. She was super accommodating around drop and pick up time to ensure he would have time to acclimate. He also can be reactive with other dogs and was extremely mindful of this while taking him on walks. We received daily updates and pics to assure us that he was doing well. We feel like we struck gold with Dara!

After doing a meet and greet with Danielle I felt very comfortable with boarding my dog, Miller with her. I liked that she would provide a cageless and friendly environment for him. Danielle and her family were nice to Miller and enjoyed having him. She was good about following his daily routine and provided a picture to show he was doing fine. She also accommodated us by providing a leash and bags, as we forgot ours. I will definitely board Miller with Danielle again.

We cannot recommend Matt enough! He watched our sweet Delta for three nights, and from the start, we felt completely comfortable leaving her in his care. She came home happy, healthy, and clearly very comfortable with him, which made the stress of being away from her so much easier to manage. Matt’s home and yard are absolutely perfect for dogs, and it was clear Delta was well cared for and felt right at home. We are so grateful to have found someone we can trust with her and would not hesitate to have Matt watch her again. Highly recommend!

I couldn’t have asked for a better pet experience for my 5 month old puppy. I reached out to Amy just a week before and was pleasantly surprised that she was available but also happy to watch my active 5 month old Golden Retriever. I could tell by her profile she was someone who would care for him well. And that certainly was the case

. We had originally planed for a 3pm drop off and late night pick up after a concert. And less than 24 hours before that, I asked if she could watch him from 8am instead bc of a sudden change in my plans. She immediately responded that she was available and it was such a relief. 

 At drop off, she asked me several questions about Cypher’s care and needs and it was very reassuring. I received many photos and a video of Cypher’s extended day with her. He had a blast running in her yard and playing and being with her two pups. He also got to meet one of the kittens she was fostering. He was also able to settle and sleep in a crate she had available. It was the perfect environment for him. I’m so thankful for the care she took of him. He came back to me happy and was clearly well looked after. I highly recommend Amy. She is very trustworthy and cares deeply for animals as is evident in my experience with her. I would use her again.

Karina went above and beyond to make our dog Tlali feel right at home and us more than comfortable with leaving her with someone else for the first time since we've adopted her. We're always stressed about vetting people for things like this and Karina made it a no-brainer to choose her. We're now much less stressed about needing to find Tlali care and looking forward to Karina helping us in the future!

There are 5,043 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Merrionette Park. About 91% of Merrionette Park sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes.

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.

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.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

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 .

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.

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, means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
