“Jeanette took great care of my dog. She was communicative and took great photos. I knew my dog was better off with her than boarded somewhere.”
“Simply the best! My husband jokes that our pup doesn’t want to come home when she stays with Laura and Vladimir and it may not be a joke! We love having Olive stay there because we know she is safe and well taken care of!”
“Doug and Debbie were incredible hosts for our dog, Stella, while our family was away for a week. Stella can be slow to warm up to new people, but thanks to their gentle care, she quickly felt at ease. We had a few unexpected flight cancellations, which required Stella to stay an extra day, and Doug and Debbie happily accommodated her without any issues. We're so grateful that Stella had a safe, loving place to stay, and she especially loved their beautiful backyard patio. Will definitely be re-booking for any other family vacation!”
“Love Lauren and her family! She is so good at sending daily photo updates and letting us know what is happening right away. I trust her with my pup 100% and will continue to ask her to take care of him in the future!”
“This was the first time used Rover in many years, and first time with my current pup Gibby. I was a bit nervous leaving him with people we'd just met but my worry was wasted. Rizwan, Noor and their family took great care of my pup. He was walked multiple times a day, was showered with pets and was able to monitor their neighborhood from a perfect viewing spot. They kindly welcomed him (us) into their home for a very comfortable stay. Thank you Noor and Rizwan for taking such good care of Gibby.”
“Obi seemed to really enjoy his stay with Brian! Obi is sensitive, so he will get sick from separation anxiety after I pick him up from a stay or he will be very clingy. He’s been completely normal since I’ve picked him up and he is doing perfectly fine! Brian provided me updates daily that eased my own separation anxiety. Thank you, Brian!”
“Kimberly took good care of Lumi. Thank you for doing that! She is very energetic when coming back. The only suggestion is if she could send us pictures of our cat once a day which would be perfect.”
“Sarah was absolutely amazing with Rocky! She treated him like he was part of her own family, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She stayed in constant communication, sent lots of pictures and updates, and it was clear from every message how much she genuinely cared about him. We never had to wonder how he was doing because she kept us informed every step of the way. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter and would gladly trust Sarah with Rocky again. Highly recommend!”
“Gabriela and Richard were so kind and sweet with my toy poodle! They even took her on little adventures to get doggie ice cream and nice walks around the neighborhood, aside from plenty of outside time in their own fenced-in backyard! Gabriela was super great about texting updates and super cute pics of my girl! And they even got her to eat a good bit while I was away even though she usually tries to go on a hunger strike in my absence. Gabriela met us for like 15 mins at the local park before boarding and got to know my dog and garner some info from me, which I really appreciated and not a lot of boarders do that! My girl was very happy when I picked her up and I would absolutely rebook Gabriela and Richard! Highly recommend!”
“This was our.. I lost count of how many times we had our dogs stay with Thao, and I must say she is awesome every single time. She always updates, always sends pictures, and makes sure the dogs are entertaining and having fun. On the way back home, they both passed out in my car.”
“Diana took really good care of our dog Lucy for over a week! She was flexible and gave us updates. When we picked up Lucy we can tell she was happy and enjoyed Diana and her family’s company! Thank you Diana for loving Lucy while we were away!”
“We recently had the pleasure of entrusting our dog to Elva while we were out of town and couldn’t be more pleased! From the moment she welcomed him into her home, she made him feel safe, comfortable, and loved. She followed our care instructions carefully and asked a lot of questions before the stay to make sure our dog’s routine was covered. It’s clear Elva knows and understands pets, and treats them with kindness, respect, and attention to detail. Leaving our dog in someone else’s care overnight for the first time was nerve‑racking—but Elva exceeded our expectations. We came home to a happy, pampered pup and are very grateful!”
“Naomi and Johann helped to board Coco twice in a row. After 6 days Coco was excited to see me for a min when I picked her up but back to her old self right after and that’s exactly what you’d want - just like she only just took a walk with friends in the park. I’d be happy to bring her back next time!”
“Mario took great care of our Rhea when we went on vacation. He consistently updated us everyday with pictures of our dog. He responds to us right away and made us feel that Rhea is well taken cared of. Thank you, Mario!”
“You can tell Abaigaels home is filled with love and I had no doubt my dog (aka my baby who I’m very nervous to leave somewhere) was well taken care of. I received lots of updates and saw all the snuggles and pampering my dog received. I wasn’t sure if he was going to want to come home. 5 Stars will definitely be a return customer!!”
“Nicky was great with our Frenchie. Lots of communication and photos. Would recommend if you need someone that can care for a fussy dog that needs lots of attention!”
“This was Daisy’s first stay with Joe but it won’t be her last! Joe clearly loves dogs and that gave us peace of mind on our vacation. We loved the photos and videos he shared with us. It was great to see Daisy enjoying herself with him. I have no hesitation in recommending Joe.”

Thank you so much for the wonderful care you gave Junior. He is a senior dog and can suffer from separation anxiety and at time refuse to eat, but your frequent updates and attentive care put my mind totally at ease. Seeing how sweet your children were with Junior made the stay extra special. He absolutely loved the kiddos, playing in the backyard, and going on his daily walks. Junior came home incredibly happy. You will absolutely be our go-to sitter moving forward! Review Highlights * Anxiety-Free Stay: Handled senior dog worry with gentle, loving attention. And frequent photo and updates * Kid-Friendly Cuddles: Junior loved snuggling and bonding with the children. * Active & Happy: Great backyard playtime and daily walks kept him thriving. * Future Booking: Officially our new permanent, go-to pet sitter.
First time using a dog‑sitting service, and I was definitely anxious. Janette made the whole experience amazing. She sent pictures and videos almost every day of my dog playing with the other pups and spending time with her daughter. Seeing her so happy made my trip so much easier. I’ll absolutely be returning!
Gabi and her family were very accommodating and uniquely qualified to take care of my dog that doesn’t do great around other dogs. It’s been hard to find a place to board our dog and not have to worry about introducing her to the dogs that already live there, so we will happily use Gabi again. We got regular updates and extremely accommodating and responsive service that was very much appreciated!
I had such a wonderful experience leaving Mintie in Corinne's care. She took such a great care of Mintie and regularly sent me photos and videos throughout her stay, which gave me so much peace of mind and made me feel very comfortable knowing that Mintie was happy and well cared for. What I appreciated even more was how kind, understanding, and flexible she was when my travel plans unexpectedly changed due to multiple flight delays and cancellations. I had to extend Mintie’s stay more than once on very short notice, and she was incredibly accommodating and continued to take such wonderful care of her through all of the unexpected changes. Corinne truly went above and beyond to make sure Mintie was comfortable and had everything she needed. When Mintie’s stay unexpectedly became longer than planned and she ran out of food, she made sure Mintie was taken care of and even shared her own dog’s food with Mintie. She also made Mintie a cozy little bed with a pillow and blanket so she could be comfortable. Those thoughtful little things meant so much to me, especially while I was stuck away from home and worried about getting back to her. I could genuinely tell that she cared about Mintie and treated her with so much kindness and attention. I am extremely grateful to have found someone I could trust with Mintie, especially during such a stressful and unexpected situation. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable, caring, and genuinely attentive to their dog. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of Mintie! ❤️
Sarah was absolutely amazing! She sent regular updates and even taught my puppy how to use the stairs. She has an awesome backyard and cozy home for pets to enjoy and lots of experience, she even has a vet background the moment she held my puppy she knew he had a hernia which I did not even know until a vet told me and I did not inform her she was smart enough to notice on her own.
Highly recommend Sarah! My Goldendoodle Charlie loved his extended stay while we were on vacation. It was truly like a vacation for him. Sarah has great house with huge backyard. Kids and family that love to give your dog attention. Sarah sent some pics and did some walks. 5 star hotel for dog. Thank you!!
We cannot thank Doug & Deb enough for looking after our dog, Taz. We had to rush to the hospital to have our baby, and they stepped in immediately to help. They came and picked Taz up, which took a massive weight off our shoulders during a very stressful and exciting moment. Throughout his stay, they sent regular updates and photos, keeping us completely at ease while we were in the hospital. Taz was treated like family and received the absolute best care. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for loving, reliable, and compassionate pet sitters. We will definitely be booking with them again!
Claire has been a wonderful caregiver, tending to the needs of our diabetic pup, Shelly. Claire sent regular updates regarding feeding and medication, as well as photos and updates about how Shelly was doing. We are so grateful to have found Claire - she truly went above and beyond in caring for our beloved pup.
Sarah took wonderful care of our dog, Scout, while we were away for the weekend. We appreciated all of the pictures Sarah sent throughout the weekend, they helped us to see how happy and relaxed Scout was during her stay. It was obvious that Sarah treated Scout like one of her own. We would gladly have Sarah watch Scout again, and we highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter.
Natalie and Jacob were outstanding sitters for our Ruby. Their calm and friendly approach put Ruby at complete ease during her six night stay. Natalie kept us informed when we checked in and sent pictures that helped with our separation anxiety .. ha ha. We highly recommend Natalie & Jacob for your dog sitting needs.
We had a great experience with Nelia. This was my first time using rover, and I found Nelia 3 days before we had to leave for a trip. She responded quickly, and gave us all the information we needed to make a great drop off of our dog Duke. I received daily updates and pictures about his activities, and was very impressed. Duke was ready and waiting for us on pick up. Awesome experience, and I will definitely take him there again!

As of August 2026, there are 5,281 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Niles. 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.
93% of Niles 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 Niles 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 Niles 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 Niles.
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 Niles 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.
