“Heather was very attentive to our Jude. She sent many pictures of all the attention he was getting while staying with her. She is knowledgeable in how to deal with all situatiions, big or small when it comes to caring for your pet. She has a very friendly dog of her own, Zephyr, who share his home with Jude graciously. I would highly recommend Heather for the care of your dog.”
“Jennifer is incredibly accommodating and so good with our dog! She has a terrific location nearby for walking dogs and visiting the park. Our dog had some anxiety with the thunderstorm but Jennifer was right with her. So kind!”
“Carol was organized and asked a lot of great questions to ensure my dog was comfortable and happy. I am embarrassed to admit that my dog panicked at the meet and greet and immediately went to the bathroom in her house. She just had been mostly cooped up during the pandemic and a new house with new people just freaked her out. I was surprised Carol was still willing to watch her, but she took all this in stride. I could tell my dog was bonding with her throughout the week. I highly recommend this understanding and thoughtful sitter! I know she's going to be my first choice from now on.”
“I highly recommend Juliet as a dog sitter. We spent time together prior to my trip. She is kind and truly loves dogs. I appreciate that she sent me photos every day. I will definitely use Juliet as a sitter again.”
“Anna-Lena is the person you can absolutely feel safe and comfortable having your best friend stay with her! She was incredibly helpful with watching over my dog by having great communication, greeting the dogs and keeping me up to date with pictures and little notes on the stay! I know my dog enjoyed herself and I was able to enjoy myself knowing my dog was with someone that takes safety, security, and also fun into staying with her! She will always be my first choice whenever help is needed again!”
“Sarah was accommodating for our last minute booking. When we met she was very thorough on showing me around, and did a meet a greet with our dogs , which went awesome! Sarah kept communication with me as well as I received daily pictures that reassured us our furr baby was in good hands. I definitely recommend and will be booking again! Thank you Sarah”
“Our dog Cami was so well taken care of by Erica. She wanted to know all about her routines to make her visit the best it could be. Erica updated us daily on how she was doing and sent pictures. We look forward to using Erica again soon! 😀❤️”
“She was absolutely amazing with my dogs. She sent pictures periodically through the day and you could tell the dogs were having so much fun! I’ll definitely be using her again and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone else.”
“Jenna is AMAZING!! She has such a kind and loving energy about her. When I dropped my pup off, he didn’t even look back 😂 Very dependable, great communication, and frequent updates! We are breaking up with our kennel and using her, moving forward!! Highly recommend!!”
About: I’ve had dogs as long as I’ve been alive and since living on my own, have had the pleasure of raising 2 of my own. I’m a dependable, caring sitter who treats every pet like they’re my own. I have experience with dogs of different sizes and personalities and love giving them plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and cuddles. I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away! I am currently working part time and have availability almost every Saturday and Sunday. I would love to fill my time with more love from your pets :) I have a decent sized fully fenced back yard and two dogs to keep your pet entertained during their stay. I am comfortable crating your dog, but also allow pets to roam freely as long as they’re fully potty trained.
About: I’m happy to accommodate different personalities, routines, and energy levels from energetic pups who love to play and explore to laid-back dogs and independent or cuddly cats who prefer a quieter environment. ❤️ I’d love the opportunity to get to know your pets and become someone you can count on! Flexible schedule, willing and able to provide check ins, pickup/drop off. I am aware every animal lover has different needs, I can assure great communication and updates as needed. I personally love to go on hikes and long walks. Open large yard ideal for dogs who love to play ball and frisbee. Family friendly dogs are encouraged to stay. Our home does have small children and 2 friendly dogs.

I will provide service locally. I will always clean up/pick up after your pup. I enjoy snuggling the cats and dogs. I spent 34 years caring for young children so I come well equipped with patience, understanding and compassion. Book a sitting with me today for an excellent, safety conscious visit for your sweet fur baby! I work during the week so this leaves me open to schedule sittings on Friday and weekends.I can come to you or well behaved dogs are welcome in my home on weekends. My schedule can be flexible. Generally Friday- Sunday evening but flexible. I care for the fur babies in the manner they are accustomed to. This keeps everyone happy. I try to do whatever the pup is used to.
About: I’ve looked after all types of animals and have grown up around just about everything — dogs, cats, fish, rabbits, reptiles, and more. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, so caring for them comes naturally to me. I’m the type of person who will talk to your pets like they’re people, send you way too many cute photo updates, and make sure they feel loved and comfortable while you’re away. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, couch cuddles, or just having a calm and reliable person around, I’m happy to match their vibe. I currently have a cat named Louie who is spoiled in the best way possible. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets, and I’ll treat yours like they’re my own. Whether you need a quick drop-in, walks, or care while you’re out of town, I’d love to help! I currently work full time. During the week, I can come by in the morning, over lunch, and at night. On the weekends, I can come by at any time. I live in an apartment downtown Napa. Your pet(s) can stay at my place or I can come to your place - whichever you/they prefer.

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Port Byron is $39 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $36 and $49 per night.

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.
95% of sitters in Port Byron can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Port Byron home-away-from-home, 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 Port Byron.
<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 Port Byron 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 , 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 .
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.
