“10/10 recommend! She was very friendly. My dogs seemed to be very well taken care of. She sent pics and gave me updates. I will definitely be using her for all my future bookings. Thank you so much for caring after my babies!”

“We had an exceptional experience with Heather as our pet sitter for Duke, our beloved micro Goldendoodle. From the moment we reached out, she made the entire process seamless, including a meet and greet that put our minds at ease. We especially appreciated the regular pictures and updates she sent while we were traveling; they truly brightened our day and reassured us that Duke was in great hands. We wholeheartedly recommend Heather and her lovely family, and we can't wait for Duke to spend time with them again!”


“Lynana was absolutely wonderful with Queenie and Harry. She kept me updated consistently with photos and check ins throughout their stay, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I could tell she was really paying attention to their personalities and comfort levels, even updating me on how they were adjusting to the other dogs in her care. She was incredibly accommodating, communicative, and clearly cares deeply about the animals she watches. My dogs looked happy, safe, and well cared for the entire time. It’s obvious she treats the pets like her own and creates a loving environment for them. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and kind to care for their pets.”

“Kelsey was so patient and caring with my dog Shadow! She made sure he was well taken care of and loved since he was so nervous being away from home. She also made sure to send plenty of updates to ease my fears as well!”

“We left our two dogs with Amber over Christmas and things went just great! Its easy to miss your furbabies over the holidays, but Amber sent so many pupdates and pics that we felt really good about leaving them with her. Her love for animals really shows and she made the dogs feel at home. One of our dogs is a little apprehensive before he gives his trust and by the end of the weekend, Amber and he were besties! Aside from how great she is with the dogs, she also is a very good communicator and flexible with drop on/offs. We would definitely book with her again.”

“Anjelica did great with my shy and nervous Sheba. By pick Sheba was seeking attention and pets from her and her husband, which to me means she felt totally comfortable in the facility. The kennels were comfy enough for Sheba to want to go in there and sleep every night. Plus the indoor play area was great. Definitely will rebook when we have to travel again.”

“Raechel was amazing! She was very communicative, sent lots of pictures, and did a ton of exercise with our dog. She was also very accommodating when we ran late and adjusted our drop off and pick up times. We would definitely use her again. Very conveniently located near the Ford Center as we were in town for a concert.”

“This is the second time we’ve have Shelley watch our dogs. She does an amazing job, very laid back and go-with-the-flow! We were so happy we have found her! We wouldn’t want to leave our dogs with anyone else!”

“Mallory did a great job of watching my dog. I will definitely use her again the next time I'm in the area and need help. I received lots of pictures and even a video ? He was definitely loved on and got lots of cuddles and attention ?”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Phillipstown 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 Phillipstown.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Phillipstown 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.
