“Erin was fantastic with my dog, Max, this weekend! She provided daily updates, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that Max was happy, comfortable, and well cared for throughout his stay. Erin was reliable, communicative, and treated Max like her own. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog sitter, and I would definitely book with her again.”
“My dog has stayed with Toya a couple of times now, and every experience has been wonderful. My dog gets excited as soon as we arrive, which says a lot about how comfortable and happy she feels there. Toya does a fantastic job keeping us updated with photos and messages, which really gives us peace of mind. We’ve had nothing but great experiences and highly recommend her!”
“Pennie was wonderful. I had never left my golden retriever with anyone. Pennie kept in touch and sent a lot of pictures showing Abbey was doing well. I can tell she was well cared for. I will definitely use Pennie again.”
“I feel like Kyle struck the jackpot when we found Renae for boarding! It was easy to arrange pick up and drop off and we were able to meet up beforehand so that Kyle could meet Renae's two dogs. Renae kept me posted with pictures and updates about how Kyle was doing. I'm a new dog owner and Kyle is young, so I didn't know how he'd adjust to a 2+ week stay with someone else, but he had a great time and was lucky to be able to find a new playmate in Renae's younger dog. I highly recommend Renae!”
“Beatrice is the best sitter i have had so far. She kept updating me with pictures of molly and how she was doing. For most of the sitters its a side thing, Beatrice does it full time and is a complete professional about it. She loves dogs, after just a 24 hour stay she told me things about my dog that took me 2 months to figure out. Keep up the good work.”
“We boarded our 2 little guys with Rosarin for several nights and could tell they were very well cared for. We got updates via the app on their days felt relieved they were in excellent care. Would highly recommend!”
“Kimberly and her family went above and beyond for us and our pups. They showered our pups with love, were super accommodating, and communicated well throughout the stay. We would recommend to anyone and everyone. When you book with her, you are booking a family.”
“Thanks Liz for watching Beau and for being flexible with the wintry weather. We are glad that we found you! It was hard to leave our pet at Christmas time, but we felt comfortable with him in your care.”
“Balbina was great! We left Simba with her for 2 weeks while we were out of the country. She took good care of our Simba and sent daily pictures and videos along with updates on his activities etc. I would highly recommend Balbina to anyone looking for dog care.”
“Like before, Diana and Brian were wonderful to Piper. Easy communication, lots of photos and updates. My dog is very anxious and a picky eater but Diana and Brian takes care of her really well and makes sure her needs are met. Definitely recommend and 100% satisfied. Until next booking.”
“Kayla is an absolute gem! We were out of town for almost 2 weeks, and understandably nervous to leave our fur baby. Our family and Dash got to meet Kayla and her family before we left; everyone immediately felt at ease. Both Kayla and her family are dog lovers, and it shows! Dash was so well loved on! Kayla kindly sent us pics each day (even though we did not ask), so we could so how Dash was doing. Our kiddos looked forward to these pics and videos, and they helped us all have a vacation for the memory books! Thank you Kayla for loving on Dash just as much as we could hope for!”
“We had a fantastic experience with Vanessa! She went above and beyond, sending daily pictures and ensuring quick communication. It was evident that she genuinely cared for our dog, King. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for top-notch in-home pet care.”
“Our dog had such a great time with Mercedes! She got lots of walks and affection. I really appreciate the daily pictures and updates, too. Mercedes is such a kind person, and I knew she wanted to make this a great experience for all. We'd definitely use her again.”
“Patricia was very responsive and sent plenty of pictures. She took very good care of our gentle giant, 7yr old golden doodle, and I would definitely seek to use her services again. She is awesome to work with. I would highly recommend.”
“Rabia and her family did an excellent job of taking care of Archie, my golden retriever. They are so caring and loving! Rabia was very accommodating to a last minute change in schedule and very attentive, giving us frequent updates. I would definitely recommend her to anyone that needs reassurance their pet is being well looked after with so much love!”
“Sylvie was a great sitter for our three dogs. She took exceptional care of them, kept us updated on how they were doing, and really treated them like they were her own. Being a way from them is always a little sad, but we know they had a great time with Sylvie. We will most definitely be using her again for our pet sitting needs! Thank you Sylvie!”
“Christina took care of our 5 month old puppy, Mocha, and gave us the best updates while we were out of town :) We’re very grateful to have found a home where Mocha is taken care of and has another dog to play with! Definitely would recommend Christina to anyone we know.”
“Susseth took our last minute booking. She was very kind to our spoiled boy and provided pictures and videos throughout his stay with her. She was on time for an early pick up. We are always nervous boarding our little guy because he came back with a broken foot after being boarded before. He looked happy and healthy on his return. We would recommend susseth for anyone looking to board their pet.”

Clarissa did an outstanding job caring for our 4-year-old Boxer, Tyson, for an entire week while we were away. She kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us great peace of mind knowing he was happy, safe, and getting plenty of attention. It was obvious from the updates that Tyson was having a great time with walks, outdoor play, and lots of love. When she dropped him off tonight, he came home happy, healthy, and relaxed—a true sign that he was well cared for. Clarissa is kind, reliable, professional, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. We are incredibly grateful for the care she provided and would not hesitate to book with her again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their furry family member. Thank you again, Clarissa, for taking such wonderful care of Tyson! ❤️

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Plainfield on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 1,657 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Plainfield. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
96% of Plainfield 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 Plainfield 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 Plainfield 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 Plainfield.
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 Plainfield 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.
