“After doing a meet and greet with Danielle I felt very comfortable with boarding my dog, Miller with her. I liked that she would provide a cageless and friendly environment for him. Danielle and her family were nice to Miller and enjoyed having him. She was good about following his daily routine and provided a picture to show he was doing fine. She also accommodated us by providing a leash and bags, as we forgot ours. I will definitely board Miller with Danielle again.”

“Michelle did a wonderful job caring for my puppy, Mabel. She was an excellent communicator, kept me updated and sent the cutest photos throughout Mabel's stay. As anyone with a puppy knows, they can be full of energy and a little chaotic at times, but Michelle handled Mabel's craziness with patience and confidence.”

“Megan and her family were wonderful with my puppy. I was apprehensive about leaving my 7 month old puppy, because, well he’s a puppy! Megan was so calming and inviting that I knew she would take great care of him! She kept me updated throughout the whole stay with pictures and texts. I highly recommend and will definitely be using Megan again!”

“Elisa did a great job with Winston. It is not easy dealing with a high-energy 7-month puppy who is new to boarding and meeting other animals like kittens. She is very attentive, provides prompt pictures/updates, and Winston enjoys her fenced yard and dog.She is on my "speed dial."”

“I can’t thank Bola enough for the outstanding care she provided for my dog during our 8-day trip! From the moment I reached out, she was incredibly responsive and attentive to all my questions and concerns. I loved receiving daily updates, complete with photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. When I picked my dog up, I was impressed by the detailed report Bola provided, highlighting daily activities, meals, and any unique moments. It's clear she genuinely cares about the well-being of the dogs in her care. I highly recommend Bola to anyone looking for a compassionate and reliable dog sitter. I will definitely be using her services again in the future!”

We had a wonderful experience with our Rover sitter, Jim! He boarded our 5 month old American Eskimo puppy, Millie, over the busy Fourth of July weekend and we couldn't have been happier with the care he provided. This was our puppy's first time away from home and he made it such a positive experience! Thank you!

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.

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.

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 .

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 .

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.
