“Sarah was great. She took very good care of my dog and cat and kept me updated with photos and recaps of their activities. She obviously loves animals and I felt my boys were very safe in her care--I recommend her highly.”
“Michelle was wonderful! She was very responsive and my dog absolutely loved her. She sent picture updates and was very prompt with drop off and pick up. Highly recommend”
“Matthew and Michelle were wonderful! Our pup, who has never stayed with anyone but family in the past, felt right at home with their clan. They listened when I explained quirks specific to my dog. They were great at sharing status updates and photos, and are really just lovely people who love dogs. We will defiitely utilize their help again!”
“Shirley was a kind, welcoming, and communicative sitter for our elderly dog, Reggie. She sent us many photos and updates throughout his stay, which my family thoroughly appreciated. Highly recommend!”
“Sadie had such a good time with Justine and Brett!! They took care of her over the weekend of our wedding, and it was so great to know Sadie was so well taken care of during our special day. Thanks so much Justine and Brett!”
“Amberley was an awesome sitter for our dog. She took him for long walks and texted us pictures every day of him with her dog and cat so we were not at all worried about him. I would absolutely use her again.”
“Mary was an amazing host for our furry friend! She came over for a meet and greet beforehand, was very open and communicative during the visit, and overall was the best to work with.”
“We decided on a last minute trip and Ingrida was kind enough to watch our girl for 4 days. She was very responsive and all our questions were answered. Anytime we text she responded immediately. Our Lulu was freshly washed and brushed and looked very happy at pickup. Would book again!”
“Linda and her family were phenomenal. I got updated pictures and feedback everyday we were gone for vacation, Linda was so understanding when last minute my dog got an ear infection and ended up needing medication before we left, and when we picked her up she was walked and medicated for the evening. Linda was so kind, VERY quick with responding and reassurance, and organized. This was my first experience with Rover. Right away I knew Linda would be trustworthy and good with my pup. She had a fenced in yard where the dogs would chase each other and get out energy Thank you Linda and family for taking such great care of Luna! Hopefully she’ll see you guys and Daisy soon!”
“Christina took care of our 5 month old puppy, Mocha, and gave us the best updates while we were out of town :) We’re very grateful to have found a home where Mocha is taken care of and has another dog to play with! Definitely would recommend Christina to anyone we know.”
“Quandra is the best! I sometimes worry about Filo because he can be anxious and has a specific diet for his reflux but Quandra followed all instructions for a smooth stay and he genuinely was happy to be there. Thank you so much Quandra! Will definitely be having Filo stay with her again!”
“Lucy stayed with Amanda & Anton while we went on a vacation for a week. Lucy seemed very happy and was well cared for. It was so nice to receive photos and updates. Thank you!”
“Kuma had a great time with Connie and her sweet dog, JoJo! Connie was flexible with drop off/pick up, communicative, and sent photo and video updates- I’d definitely recommend Connie for all pet sitting needs!”
“Wayne did a wonderful job. His daily photos really exemplified how comfortable she was at his house with her new furry friends while we were away for a week. We will definitely use Wayne’s services again and highly recommend him!”
“Melissa went above and beyond to care for Pancake! Pancake was like a kid at summer camp having the best time of her life, playing with all her new best friends and doing all sorts of fun new activities. Melissa’s family also went out of their way to play with her, give her walks, and even pup cups! They did an excellent job cleaning Pancake (even her bully face wrinkles) which Pancake typically is not a fan of😂. Can’t wait to have Pancake come back here again! THANK YOU! ❤️”
“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!”
“Danielle has always been my go to sitter and she will keep being my go to sitter whenever possible! we love having thor and gigi stay at her home. we always leave knowing they are in great hands! thank you so much!”
“Baily did an outstanding job taking care of our little Greta (6 years old pug/boston terrier mix rescue). She kept us updated on Greta's stay with her and it was obvious from the updates and accompanying photos that Greta was feeling right at home and being showered with affection by Baily.”

SUPERB! HIGHLY RECOMMEND! 5 STARS 🌟 🌟🌟🌟🌟 This was our first time boarding our two dachshunds and we could not be happier with the results. Michelle and family were SO LOVING and wonderful with them; they even had a little party for their 2 year old birthdays! 🎂 We were updated daily with pics of love and cuddles, and our dogs seemed very relaxed and happy! The transition from Michelle’s home back to ours was seamless, which means they were well cared for and loved for throughout their stay. Michelle and family have become part of our family and we have already booked another stay with them. Highly recommended!!!!!
Normally I would leave my pups with family members but none were available so I went with Maureen. I made the right choice. Maureen came to meet my two older girls so we could discuss all concerns, including some recent medical needs. When I dropped them off Maureen made them feel comfortable and they settled in nicely. If the need arrives in the future I won’t hesitate to use her again.
Karin really came through for us and our pup on a last minute booking. After a meetup with her and her dog we determined that she would be a great fit to care for our little guy. Karin was responsive and sent photo updates regularly throughout the stay. This helped to put us at ease since it is a new puppy to us and a very young dog. Can’t recommend Karin enough and we are grateful to have found someone so close to us that we can hopefully use in the future! Thanks again!
Benji spent another week with Amanda and he loved it! He does have a little bit of separation anxiety, this was his second time, and he had no problem heading into her door and away from me. She is amazing, sends updates with pictures and cuddles with him on the couch. Best sitter ever!

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 .

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 Oakbrook Terrace 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 Oakbrook Terrace 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 Oakbrook Terrace 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 Oakbrook Terrace.
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 Oakbrook Terrace 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.
