“100/10 You know you’ve chosen the right sitter for your dog when they refuse to leave with you. Soni was consistent in sending over photos and videos to keep me updated that Milo was doing great in their backyard and having a blast without me </3 All jokes aside, I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter”
“Karla was wonderful. Great communication, super fast replies, oodles of pictures sent, and just a really great vibe. Ramona clearly had a wonderful time during her stay and she came home clean and happy. We will not hesitate to book again with Karla!”
“Wonderful experience with Barbara! Our three pugs thoroughly enjoyed their visit to her very dog-friendly house and returned home content & happy. Will def use Barbara again!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Sandra dogsitting for Jack. Sandra's dog is also a miniature poodle. She has a big yard. The two dogs get along very well. Sandra sent me lots of pictures and a video during the stay. We would book with them again next time.”
“From the time I dropped my dog off,to when I picked him up and even after Keisy has been a total sweetheart….From sending pictures of him playing around, she even went above and beyond as to showering him and washing his blanket. In which no dog sitter as done before.It’s the small details that count and truly makes me want to use her again in the future hands down…”
“Mary was great with Miley! She sent me pictures and kept me updated! Mary has a very clean home and can host multiple dogs, which is perfect for Miley who loves to socialize! Miley came home super happy and slept a lot, so I know she got her play time in :). Thank you, Mary for keeping such good care of my dog!”
“Amarys was amazing with my dog, Diamond! She took such great care of her, played with her, took her on lots of walks, and kept me updated throughout the stay with plenty of photos. It was so reassuring to see how happy and comfortable Diamond was. You can tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches, and Diamond absolutely loved her. I felt completely at ease knowing she was in such good hands. We’ll definitely be booking with Amarys again, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!”
“Kiara was amazing with our golden retriever Kona. She sent videos and updates every day from their walks and playtime in her large fenced in yard. Kiara’s policy of dog sitting only one at a time ensured he had love and attention. He came back relaxed and happy, not stressed out at all. Kiara herself is warm and friendly, interested in hearing about all your dog’s foibles, and obviously a calming presence to dogs. We are absolutely going to use her again!”
“My girls have just returned from their second stay with Desi & Marilyn. When we pulled into the driveway, my dogs were racing to get inside Desi’s play area. They were happy and comfortable, so this confirmed they were obviously happy and well cared for by Desi and Marilyn the first stay- because the dogs would not have been so happy to be back. This just made me extra confident in leaving them. They seemed happy, playing and socializing with everyone. Will not hesitate to book again.”
“We had an amazing experience with this dog sitter! They took such great care of our three dogs, showed genuine love and attention, and kept us updated the whole time. It gave us total peace of mind while we were away. We would absolutely use them again—highly recommended!”
About: I've been a pet owner my whole life. There was always a dog in my home when I was a child. Later on, in my own home had raised two dogs and a cat from their earliest days. My sweet Golden Retriever, Milo, was with me and my kids since he was 10 weeks old. He was amazing! Sadly after a year of being sick and fighting a good fight, it became too much for him. My kids & I said goodbye to him with many tears and such a heaviness in our hearts. It has been sad not seeing his happy face when I come home or unusual to not have to take him out for his nighttime walk. We miss him so much! I would love to be able to share my love that I had for him with the caring of another dog. I'm home during the day which allows me to have the time to devote to your dogs.i also have two teenage kids who are able to walk and play with him. I live on a quiet dead end street with hardly any cars coming through. I have a nice sized yard which is great for playing and taking in the suns rays(my dog would love to just roll his body over in the grass...lol). So I would being taking care of your precious baby boy/girl as if he/she was my own! I also will only take care of one dog at a time... so YOUR dog will have ALL my attention! I am a very easy going down to earth person.... I'd love to chat with you about your needs and concerns for your dog. Please let me know what I can do to help you ... Talk to you soon! Kathy
“Riti was amazing with Maggie! Riti's dog Sky is adorable and very friendly. We loved hearing about Maggie and Sky's adventures. They became quick buddies. Riti sent lots of a pics and was always quick to respond to any texts. Maggie came home happy and looking great. Thanks Riti!”
“I can’t say enough good things about Stephanie! Leaving Nova with someone new while I was away was a little nerve-racking, but Stephanie made the entire experience so much easier. Her communication was outstanding — I received multiple updates and pictures every day, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing Nova was happy, comfortable, and in great hands. What I appreciated most was how genuinely caring Stephanie was. It never felt like Nova was just another dog she was watching. She treated her like one of her own, and as someone who considers his dog family, that meant the world to me. I was able to enjoy my trip without worrying about Nova because I knew she was being loved and well taken care of. I’m incredibly grateful to Stephanie and would absolutely trust her with Nova again. Highly recommend!”
“I cannot say enough good things about our experience with Binta! She was wonderful, incredibly attentive, and overly accommodating throughout Laila’s entire stay. I absolutely loved the picture updates she sent me—it was such a relief to see Laila so happy and well cared for. Binta made sure Laila was comfortable and treated like family. It’s amazing to find someone so trustworthy and flexible. I’ll definitely be booking with Binta again!”
“Enis took very good care of Sophie while we were away for the weekend. He has a very calm and caring demeanor. He sent some pictures and was very responsive to my texts. I was a little nervous leaving her because she is a diabetic and needed her insulin injections at meals. He was able to give her the shots as instructed. She seemed very happy when I came to pick her up. Definitely recommend and will visit again!”
“Janise and her family took amazing care of my dog Faith! She suffers from some anxiety, but they were patient, brought out the best in her, and kept us updated frequently. Would definitely recommend!!”
“The best person that has watched my dog by far. She considered his quirks and made sure he was well taken care of. She sent me lots of cute photos and I felt very safe with her having my dog. 100% will be boarding my dog there again!”
“Kia was so great with my girl Sabzi. She was always quick to respond and she put my mind at ease since this was my first time using rover. She sent me lots of photos and videos of my girl which was much appreciated. Thank you so much Kia!”
“We felt very happy and comfortable leaving our pup with Laura and Kevin. He was well taken care of and got plenty of attention while we were away, which helped us relax on our vacation. Highly recommend!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Park Ridge
Evelyn and her husband were fantastic with our maltipoo, Stormi. They immediately made Stormi feel at home. She consistently sent pictures and videos putting us at ease knowing Stormi was being well taking care of. She was very attentive and caring. Stormi had a great time. I would highly recommend them.
Irene and Ken were real lifesavers! We had a family emergency and needed their help right away. They were flexible, accommodating, and caring. They took great care of Troy, communicated with us and sent pictures, and were so nice! This is the second time that we utilized their services. It won't be the last. Superb sitters and great people!
Jessica did an amazing job watching Betsy. I have an elderly dog who is very skittish but she relaxed and seemed very happy with Jessica. She took her for walks and sat with her. She gave her medication and even tried to clean her ear. Our family felt very happy and secure knowing that Betsy was in such good hands. I would highly recommend Jessica. She has such positive energy and really loves dogs.
Brittany and her family were absolutely wonderful with Cooper. From the updates she shared to the care and attention they gave him, we could tell he was genuinely loved and treated like part of their family. Honestly, I think Cooper was a little sad to leave them! It gave us such peace of mind knowing he was being cared for and loved just as he would be at home with us. Brittany truly became an extension of our family, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We’re so grateful and would absolutely trust her with Cooper again. Thank you, Brittany and family!
I booked Hope to board Walter at her home overnight when I had a wedding to attend! We did a meet and greet before the overnight visit and Hope showed me where Walter would sleep and spend the day! It was reassuring to know she had a gate to keep Walter and his puppy antics contained. During the actual stay she sent many cute pictures of Walter enjoying his stay. She also cleaned his eyes for me and gave me some grooming tips for him! He came home looking even better than when I dropped him off!! I would definitely book with her again! :)
Robyn was absolutely wonderful ! She’s very caring and accommodating. This was my first time leaving my dog with other than family and she made Me feel so safe leaving my dog. I’m enjoyed my weekend with no worries I will definitely hire her again and highly recommend her!!
Meredith did a great job taking care of my senior dog. She has senior dogs herself so she was very understanding. She also gave me good feedback. She communicates very well and responds quickly. She has a nice fenced in yard. My dog got along well with Meredith and her dogs. I think she had such a good time that she didn't want to come home! Thanks Meredith!

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 13,990 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Park Ridge. About 88% of Park Ridge 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 NJ 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.
