“Kent was absolutely wonderful with my dog, Chloe. Chloe is a difficult case because she can’t be alone because of her separation anxiety she can’t be with other dogs because of her reactivity. This makes her somewhat high maintenance. Kent was able to handle and he loved taking care of her! I’ll be back to ask Kent again to take of Chloe for the upcoming holidays. Kent is very communicative and and just an overall sweet, wonderful, caring and competent person.”
“Laura was excellent! She regularly communicated with us and sent us photos of our dog. She was very attentive to our dog and we could tell he was very happy while staying there. Her family treated him as if he was their own! His bed and all his toys were also kept and returned in perfect shape. Laura is absolutely incredible, we will definitely book with her again!”
“1st time leaving my dog with complete strangers but when I tell you, it was the best decision we made. When I walked into their home to dropped my dog off, there was such a calmness I felt, all nervousness disappeared immediately. My dog was loved and well taken care of, we got daily updates and pictures from the family. I will 100% have them sit my dog again.”
“After meeting Melissa and her dogs, we felt very comfortable leaving our doggy with her 9 nights. The family is friendly, the home is cozy, and we liked the big yard. We also liked the updates we received and photos she sent during his stay. Melissa was super responsive and provided updates how our dog was doing with his food, and getting along with her dogs. It was our first time using Rover, and we were very pleased with the experience. We were happy to find Melissa and recommend her to anyone to feel at ease while on vacation.”
“I highly recommend Olga for her pet sitting services. She took amazing care of our dog, Zoey. She played with her and took Zoey on a lot of walks (which she loves). Her communication was great- she sent daily video and photo updates which gave us peace of mind… Zoey looked like she was having the best time. We can’t wait to have Olga watch Zoey again!”
“My dog made himself right at home with Eliza! They got on really well and I had loads of pictures during his stay. He was very happy and healthy when I saw him again, and he enjoyed himself tremendously. I’m very happy to recommend Eliza as someone who is very enthusiastic about dogs, has a great place, takes really good care of them (let my dog out several times a day!). She was great and I hope we can visit her again sometime! (Tucker thinks so too...)”
“We have used Rover for a number of sitters and walkers in the past, and Janette and Charlie are the first ones we've used more than once! They send a ton of photos and videos, and are incredibly flexible with drop-offs/pickups. I know my dog is always in good hands whenever she stays with them!”
“Thea was the best. She’s very gentle and loving. You can tell she really loves pets and takes good care of them. I really appreciate her sending me updates (pictures and videos) every now and then. She was also sweet to send us guides and tips on how to train and handle our puppy. Thanks thea!:)”
“We had such a wonderful experience, this was our second time leaving Korra with Kim, and once again she was amazing. She took excellent care of Korra, and her communication was great, which gave us complete peace of mind. Kim truly went above and beyond; she even got Korra a Christmas gift, which meant so much to us. We’re incredibly grateful and would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“We couldn't have asked for a better person to look after Lizzie. From start to finish, Stephanie was incredibly attentive, communicative, and reassuring. It’s always tough leaving our pup behind, but Stephanie went above and beyond to show just how much she truly cared about Lizzie's well-being. We got great updates, had total peace of mind, and came home to a very happy pup. We will absolutely be using Stephanie again and cannot recommend her highly enough!”
“Both my 6.5-year-old Vizsla and my 3-month old Vizsla LOVE going to stay with Chris and her family. My older guy starts to shake and jump with excitement when we turn on her street, and I was worried about leaving our new puppy at home; however, with Chris' excellent love and care, they both did great. Can't recommend her enough!”
“Cecilia was great. We had a meet and greet prior to the reservation. During the reservation, Scarlett appeared relaxed and comfy in all the pictures, which put me at ease. Thank you!”
“Amanda lovingly looked after our little Bear with great attention. This is our second time using Amanda's boarding service, and we are once again extremely grateful for her help.”
“Sana is a caring and attentive sitter. Latte was very well taken care of during his stay. We could tell he was happy every day, especially getting to walk and play with his good friend Bella. Highly recommend!! 💕”
“Hi , Kichu had a great time with Mario. He texted me and also replied my text in a timely manner so I could solve the problem easily . I was able to enjoy my trip peacefully. He sent me Kichu’s pictures and videos.I highly consider Mario next time. Thank you for your service.”
“We had a great experience with Meghan! Freddy was happy, well cared for, and clearly received lots of attention while we were away. Communication was excellent throughout the stay, and we really appreciated the updates and photos. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands and would happily book again.”
“Kaylee is the absolute best!! She cares for our puppy weekly but had him for a very long weekend and provided some many great updates and even when our guy was anxious - she was so attentive!!! The best of the best.”
“Eileen is truly the best! She is so kind and loving, you just saw it in our dog's eyes as Eileen sent pictures. We are so grateful for this experience and will be using Eileen to take care of our sweet girl. Thank you so much Eileen for your care and for all the wonderful messages and pictures!!!”
“Erena was wonderful with my 2 girls! She truly treated them with such great care. She sent several photos and updates on how they were doing. I would definitely recommend if you're looking for someone to love your fur baby just like you do while you're away!”

Our second time boarding with Hannah and we could not be more grateful to have found the best sitter for our dogs! She is so consistent with updates and photos throughout the day and has so much experience that we have no worries while we are gone because we know she has our dogs fully taken care of. Our dogs definitely love all the attention and socialization they get being with their now-besties. Hannah is so great with our pups and has such an amazing setup at her home, we are so appreciative of how much care she puts into everything.
D’Artagnan did an amazing job with Groot! Our dog tends to get anxious when we're away and was unable to keep his food down the first day. D’Artagnan handled it perfectly - he kept us informed with regular updates and photos, and even provided probiotics to help settle his stomach. We felt so relieved knowing Groot was in such capable and caring hands. We highly recommend D’Artagnan for anyone looking for a thoughtful and attentive sitter!
We were so happy with the care that was provided for our two dogs. We received pictures of our dogs. They looked happy. She alway went the extra mile for our dogs. One of the dogs was licking his paw alot and she provided care for him. She kept us informed and we were confident of her care. We are so thankful and will definitely recommend her with your dog.
Ekaterina took wonderful care of our cat for over a week. She sent frequent pictures & little videos which showed me Nelly was relaxed and content at her home. She is a sweet woman with a soft touch that cats will respond well to. I highly recommend Ekaterina for cat sitting and I definitely plan to use her again in the future. :)
Joanna and her family were absolutely amazing with our boy. We could see their passion for dogs and caring for them, right away. We were away for a week and while we missed Sarge very much, we were at great ease with the care he recieved. Sarge got along great with their two absolutely adorable dogs. We were very impressed with the pictures and daily updates. We will 100% rebook with Joanna. Highly recommend! 🐾
Melissa provided a warm, and loving environment for our two huskies. From the minute they arrived they felt excited and welcomed. It was great they had so such playtime with her dogs and family. We also appreciated her keeping us updated with photos and closely following their feeding routine. We highly recommend Mellissa for dog sitting your fur babies.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Prospect Heights on Rover is $48.15 per night (as of June 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 5,497 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Prospect Heights. About 91% of Prospect Heights 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. 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.
