About: I have been taking care of all different types of animals since I was very young. My mom was a vet tech, she brought home animals to nurse back to health. We also fostered many animals. I found my love for animals then. Especially dogs and cats. I have had so many cats and dogs growing up its hard to keep count. I had had small, big and huge dogs in my lifetime. I have experience with dogs with anxiety and elderly dogs. I can administer oral medications. I have volunteered at shelters in the past. And I have also fostered dogs with several organizations. I have two dogs of my own that are both rescues. They both love all dogs and play very well with other dogs. Im a work from home dog mom. I am free for doggy daycare most days. I am also available for overnight stays and weekends. I am open to overnight stays during the week or weekends. My schedule is very flexible. My dogs are allowed on the bed and couches so your dog is too. If you dont allow that at your home I will do my best to keep your dog off of the furniture. Dogs must be spayed or neutered. I prefer your dog be microchipped and up to date on all vaccines.
About: I grew up with dogs and cats, loving and caring for them all my life. I’ve handled a variety of breeds, providing everything from baths to nail trims. Each pet receives the care and attention they deserve. Caring for these pets is not just my passion, it’s also my full-time commitment. I’ll have plenty of time to give them all the love, care, and attention they deserve every single day I provide a safe and secure environment in my home, where I have a sweet, calm puppy and a shy kitten. I can also offer park outings if the client desires.
About: Hi! I’m Diane, a mature and loving dog mom with 18 years of experience caring for dogs of all ages and energy levels. I treat every dog like my own—providing a safe and happy environment while you’re away. Whether your dog needs daily walks, playtime, cuddles, or administering medication, I’ve got you covered. I'm home all day every day as a dedicated dog mom. No other work or children in the home to distract me from providing your dog with care and attention. I care for one dog at a time in addition to my Bella. Dogs are never left home alone. Our home is a haven for small dogs. Every room has cozy chairs, blankets and pillows along with natural light and fresh air for dogs to enjoy. Dogs are allowed on furniture and beds. I have a large, safe fenced in yard. The fence is solid with absolutely no gaps for little ones to squeeze through.
“Super flexible with my dog. Made her feel comfortable in her new environment. They took lots of pics and sent to me throughout my time away. My dog came back tired but happy. Thank you”
“Danielle was amazing with our dog. Provided updates. Our dog has anxiety and doesn't do well in caged boardings. Danielle was very patient and took great care of her when we were away. 100% recommend and we'll use her again.”
“Anton and Amanda were wonderful with Griffy! He seemed to have a great time with them and their family! They sent pictures daily and updated me with how he was doing. They kept him safe and happy and were very easy to correspond with. Highly recommend!”
“Kevin is the most reliable dog sitter ever! My dog was well cared for and happy. Kevin sent pictures and updates periodically while I was away. Definitely recommend his services and will definitely use again.”
“100% positive experience. Wayne provided morning updates, photos, and had a nice home for my dog to get lots of playtime. It was very easy to book and communicate with Wayne. I highly recommend having him watch your dog as I would gladly book with him again.”
“Susan was absolutely amazing with Paganini! 🐾 She has a big backyard where he got to run and play all day, and she took him on long, happy walks too. Throughout the day, she sent me tons of adorable photo updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. Paganini came home happy, calm, and completely well-rested—a true sign he was loved and well cared for. She was also incredibly kind, communicative, and accommodating with our schedule, especially knowing we have a baby at home. On top of that, she made sure Paganini got his daily medication without any issues, which was such a relief. I honestly can’t recommend Susan enough—she treated Paganini like one of her own, and we feel so lucky to have found her!”
“Maria was wonderful with our boy cooper! She took Cooper on a bunch of walks and provide provided me with pictures and videos showing how good of a time he was having!”
About: As a dog owner of both a Standard Poodle and a Shiba Inu, and also a cat owner, I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I understand the importance of sticking to each dog’s routine and making sure they get plenty of exercise, playtime, and attention. I’m currently only accepting new clients for stays of 7 nights or longer, mainly to give the dogs enough time to get familiar with each other and feel comfortable together. I work from home; your pup will have multiple potty breaks and lots of company throughout the day! I have a large, fenced-in backyard where I love playing with dogs on the lawn every day, and I also enjoy taking them on walks. Fresh water is always available, of course! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I have a large, fully fenced backyard for outdoor play, and dogs are always supervised when outside. My home is a clean, comfortable, and pet-friendly environment.
“traci was fantastic with our girl shadow. she sent lots of cute pictures and updates, and i know shadow loved the yard and playing with charlie. we will for sure be using traci again!”
“This was the first time we've left our dogs with someone and we're definitely glad it was with Shannon. They were very well taken care and happy when we picked them up. Shannon stayed in daily contact and sent photos and videos of our fur babies enjoying their time with her. We highly recommend Shannon and plan on rebooking when we take our next vacation.”
“This was the second time I booked with Christina and I was just as pleased this time, as I was the first time! She was kind enough to open up her home to my dog for 10 days while I was on vacation. She updated me with the perfect amount of pictures of my baby and he always looks happy to be there!”
About: Hi! I'm a passionate dog lover with over 7 years of hands-on experience caring for my own dog, and I've also had the pleasure of dog sitting for many friends over the years—sometimes for several weeks at a time. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and safe while you're away. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding,I'm dedicated to providing reliable, attentive care so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in good hands. Dog walking and boarding fit very well into my schedule. I work in the office from 7:00 AM to 11:00 AM on weekdays, and I'm home for the rest of the day, which allows me to spend plenty of quality time with the dogs in my care. During the few hours I'm away, your dog will have the companionship of my friendly, well-socialized dog, so they won't be alone. Once I'm home, I'll be available for walks, playtime, potty breaks, feeding, and lots of attention to make sure your dog feels comfortable, happy, and cared for. I live in a gated community which is extremely secure. We also have numerous huge dog parks in the community but I would only take the dogs when it is just them in the dog park, safety is the priority!
About: Hi! I’m a proud dog mom to two Cavapoos—Max (6 months old) and Charlie (1 year old). They are truly the love of my life, and having them has completely changed my world. I care for every dog as if they were my own, with the same love, attention, and patience I would hope someone gives to Max and Charlie. Your dog will be treated like family here. We also have a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely run, play, and enjoy their time outside. I look forward to caring for your pup! I work 2 days a week and I’m at home the rest of the week , so I would be more than happy to have your baby here ! I care for pets at my own house , providing pee pads and a lot of love and play time ! I also have a back yard for them to go potty!
“Maria did a great job but what i appreciated was administering my guy's medicine and most of all staying up late to hand off my dog when my flight was badly delayed. Thanks again Maria”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Oswego
We had a meet and greet with Balbina beforehand which really worked out. Balbina liked Sky and Sky liked her. Picking Sky up helped me a lot fore to get ready for the wedding I was attending. And I was sent pictures and I'm pretty sure Sky forgot all about me. From the pictures it looked like she was at home. I know I have an alternative if my brother is busy and I need a sitter for Sky. Very happy with Balbina, worked out great.
Moose enjoyed his stay and company with Kathleen/ doggos! She is so warm and welcoming. Taking care of a 180 pound Saint Bernard is no small task, but she loved him like he was her own. I highly recommend to anyone in the area and will definitely be rebooking with her in the future!
Jen and Drew are the best!!!! I don’t think I can say enough great things about them. My 2 dogs stayed at their home for over 4 months during a huge transition in my life when I could not have the dogs with me. They welcomed them into their home, made them a part of the family, and cared for them so well. My furbabies were well loved and pampered. I will be eternally grateful to them, and to Rover for connecting us, so that I could rest easy that they were ok while I couldn’t be with them. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. They have a great yard and my dogs met so many new fur friends during their stay. I highly recommend them for boarding and/or doggie daycare. Thank you, Jennifer and Drew!!!!!
This is my second booking with Alexandra and I’ve got to say, she really is the best. Milo gets along with her and her family so well. She sends lots of pics and updates and gives my pup a vacation while I am on vacation. I would definitely book her again. She is an amazing sitter
Erin is outstanding! From the moment you meet her, and are greeted by the cute little chalkboard welcoming each of her furry friends for the day, it is clear she loves her job... And the ones she is caring for. She sends lots of pictures and videos so you know dog is having a great time with friends! Thanks aaron! Booster can't wait to come back!

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Oswego is $49 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $58 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
There are 1,455 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Oswego. About 92% of Oswego sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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 personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
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 Meet & Greet.
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. 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.
Emergency support 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, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
