“Lisa is very approachable. Love how she stayed in constant communication with us. Lisa was very flexible as a snow storm delayed our pick up by two days! Lisa was very kind to our dog... appreciated everything she did. Will use again.”
“Elizabeth was amazing with our dog, Chief! She took great care of him while we were away and kept us updated so we knew he was doing well. It gave us a lot of peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. She’s very kind, responsive, and clearly loves dogs. We would absolutely trust her to watch Chief again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter!”
“Ruby had a wonderful stay and made lots of new friends. I’m grateful to have a place where I feel comfortable leaving my fur baby and knowing she will be well taken care of 💕”
“We left Hershey w/Julie & her family for what was to be 5 nts. It was our first experience ever leaving him. They were incredible w/him! I got a picture & message everyday, which was comforting. We had a situation which delayed our return, and they worked w/us when we had to change in pick up time, even offering to keep him another night or two if needed! Will definitely book with them again!! Highly recommend!”
“Karen was great with our dogs Bella and Brandy! She was very friendly and responsive and sent us lots of updates and pictures during our vacation! We will definitely use Karen again for future trips!”
“It was our first time leaving Ria, and couldn’t be happier to have left her in Magda and her family’s hands!! I could tell Ria instantly felt comfortable in their home (and the backyard!) we can’t say thank you enough for taking care of our girl!”
“Kim did an incredible job caring for my nervous dog while I was away for a week. She went above and beyond to ensure my pup felt comfortable and safe in a new environment. Her thoughtful care and regular updates gave me peace of mind. It’s clear that Kim truly cares and takes her responsibility seriously.”
“Ken and his family were awesome with our Sasha! Super easy to book.. actually the while process was super easy! Sasha’s happy she made some new friends.. and I’m happy I found our new ”go-to” sitter for our random weekend getaways!”
“Michelle and her family were wonderful with our two dogs for the week! She went above and beyond following our instructions to truly provide them with a good home, giving us peace of mind while we were on vacation. I would absolutely recommend using her!”
“A true life saver! We attempted to keep our dog at a pet friendly hotel while we went to a concert, but Noodle decided she was going to let the hotel guests know how much she missed us by barking. We thought for sure we'd have to listen to the concert from the parking lot or just not go all together. Kathy responded very quickly, super nice and accommodating . Thank you again!”
“Kate took great care of my 2 golden retrievers. They were there for a weekend and became part of her family for the short time they were there! I highly recommend Kate!”
“Christie was wonderful ! She watched my dog while I went out of town and always kept me updated, sent me pictures of their activities, and always informed me of his stay. I’ll definitely be booking with her again whenever I go out of town again.”
“We don’t board our dogs or have them watched outside of our home very often. When we do need help, it’s usually a family member or close friend staying at our house. Because of that, we were a little nervous about having them stay somewhere else, but Emily was absolutely wonderful! She was incredibly patient, loving, and kind with both of our dogs—especially our Labrador, who has become quite the homebody in his older years and needed a little extra time to adjust to being away from home. Emily handled it with so much patience and care, and we could tell she genuinely wanted him to feel comfortable and secure. When we picked them up, they were excited to see us but were clearly happy, comfortable, and well looked after. It’s obvious that Emily genuinely cares about the animals she watches and treats them like her own. We would absolutely recommend Emily to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter, and we would not hesitate to book with her again in the future. Thank you again, Emily, for taking such great care of our pups!”
“Liliana and her family gave me such peace of mind to leave my Whiskey in their care. The initial visit with the family in their beautiful home was so warm and friendly. And while I was away, I was so grateful for the updates and pics throughout each day. Whiskey got attached to one of Liliana’s teenage daughters. So sweet!”
“This was my first time using Sharon and all went well. She sent photos and videos of Lily and took Lily on frequent walks. She was quick to respond to my texts. I really appreciate Sharon’s responsible and professional nature. And when I picked up Lily at the end of her stay, Sharon gifted her a bag of treats and toys and a thank you note! I will definitely use Sharon again.”
“Amy was our first time using Rover. She was so patient with us. She allowed us enough time to drop him off & watch him get use to the new environment & updated us often with pictures!! Hank had the best time, from playing in the fenced in backyard to making friends with her sweet dog. We definitely recommend Amy!”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Mokena on Rover is $37.45 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 4,611 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Mokena. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
94% of Mokena 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 Mokena 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 Mokena 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 Mokena.
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 Mokena 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.
