“My pet had spent the fantastic days in her house because I felt he didn’t want to go back home with me. I appreciated about what I could get good travel due to her care.”
“Another wonderful stay with Kim! She took exceptional care of our 5-month-old pup, showing so much love and patience throughout. Yoshi was still adjusting, and Kim handled his puppy energy and behaviors with ease and understanding. She even kept him safe and calm during a long tornado warning, which gave us so much peace of mind. Her fenced yard was perfect for helping him burn off energy, and she went above and beyond by teaching him how to play fetch—and even a little soccer! We also really appreciated the daily updates and photos, especially since we missed him a lot while we were away. We always feel confident leaving Yoshi with Kim—she consistently provides such thoughtful, attentive care. Highly recommend!”
“Byron and Martha are the best. They took really good care of our dog Noki. They followed up each day with photos and followed all instructions for care. Will be reaching out again for his service thru Rover. For sure a 5 star sitter. Thanks again!”
“Sunshine and her family were perfect! They made my dog, Fitz, part of the gang and he seemed super happy there. She kept me updated with pictures of her kids loving my little old man dog and was very responsive and super easy and flexible to arrange drop off and pick up. Thank you so much! I appreciate you loving my little guy like family.”
“Mary and Norm were the absolute best dog sitters! We left our 12 year old Shihtzu with them and he was treated so well. We got daily updates and knew he was in good hands. Highly recommend!”
“Megan, provided a safe and comfortable environment for our dog. She was awesome about sending photos regularly and communixating on how she is doing. We recommend her highly.”
“Angela and Dave took great care of Mr Bubbles. We had a last minute cancellation, and had to book with them the night before we left on vacation. They were so nice and understanding. I felt so comfortable leaving our family dog with them. I got pictures and daily updates while he was with them. Bubbles came home happy and tired, I can tell he had a great time playing with their dogs.”
“We are so lucky to find Dee. Dee did a great job and communicated what was going on very well! It was important for us since it was our first time. She sent us a lot of good pictures. Thanks Dee! Highly recommend!”
“We are so lucky to have found such a wonderful dogsitter! Chisato goes over and beyond what we expect. We never worry about Winnie while we’re away because we know she is well cared for. We appreciate the photos and comments that are sent to us throughout Winnie’s stay. Winnie loves Chisato and enjoys the time she spends with her. Chisato has certainly earned recognition for being a STAR sitter!”
“Kim took in Joey for a last minute trip and was so helpful and accommodating. Joey was a little scared at first but soon was playing and having a great time. He didn’t even come running when I called for him at pick up! So great to have Kim and family care for our fur baby.”
“Sandy was so great with our boy. She picked him up, sent pictures and was so happy to watch him! She's an incredibly friendly, warm, and kind person. We highly recommend her to anyone looking!”
“I had a rescue adult dog, I did not know how it was going to go since I had never left her completely alone since I got her 3 years ago. Stella made me feel comfortable with the whole process. I cannot say enough on how pleased I am, from the updates while I was gone, to how well and smoothly everything went. It looks like my dog made some friends during her 9 day visit as she is much more vocal now, letting me know she's the boss!!!! Thank you Stella”
“Highly recommend Rusty. On our meet & greet, he carefully introduced Kali to Banjo both outside and then inside to ensure no personality clashes. He asked many questions to ensure he knew Kali and her needs. On our drop off date, she immediately greated Rusty as an old friend. He took great care of Kali, sending messages & videos daily. His house and fenced yard are perfect for dogs. Kalid came home clean (even tho it rained a lot), happy, and tired! He responded quicky to our frequent txt updates on drop off & pickup times, due to traffic issues. Will book again and recommend him for your doggy care.”
“I’m not one to write reviews but I know how important they were when I choose Debbie and her family to care for my dog. I had so many reservations and worries but after reading great reviews and then after our meet and greet I knew I had chosen the right person. Not only did Debbie and her family care for my dog but it was clear in the pictures I received daily that he was also given so much love to the point I wondered will he want to come back home lol. In addition to caring for our dog I told them due to a back injury Chanze was never leash trained and they took the time to leash train him as they went for daily walks. In every part of his care they went above and beyond what was expected. I will definitely be using Debbie and her family for our next trip. If you have any hesitation with using a complete stranger/an app to choose someone to watch your pet know your worries will quickly go away as this a wonderful family who will shower your pet with nothing but love.”
“I was so very happy that I selected Veronique to care for my pup during my long 12 day vacation. Veronique truly exceeded my expectations by caring for my puppy just like she was one of the family, by sending me photos and videos of their walks in the park and by the beach, and by calming her during rain storms. I feel that Veronique is a dog whisperer. She also bathed my dog and clipped her nails beautifully. Seeing the videos, I joyfully felt that my pup was having more fun than me. I highly recommend Veronique to sit for any type of dogs as she has years of experience, a high level of canine knowledge, and her house is warm and safe, and set up with a large fenced yard and secure features. I will be using her services again in the future.”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Heather and Bernie's stay! She was incredibly patient, kind, and caring, and it was clear from the start that she genuinely loves animals. We received plenty of updates and photos throughout his stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. The best sign of all was that Bernie didn't even want to leave when we picked him up! That told us everything we needed to know about how comfortable and happy he was. We would absolutely trust her with Bernie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, loving dog sitter. Thank you so much for taking such great care of our boy!”
“JoAnne is the best! She provided updates and pictures throughout the stay. Ralph had a blast with the whole family and was spoiled with Hunny play time and snuggles. We will continue to come back to JoAnne as long as she provides the service. Thank you!”

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.
91% of Old Mill Creek 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 Old Mill Creek 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 Old Mill Creek 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 Old Mill Creek.
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 Old Mill Creek 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.
