“Five very waggy stars for Meghan (and her sweet pup, Ralphie)! Meghan is absolutely incredible. From the moment we arrived, it was clear that she is a true dog lover with tons of experience, and she knew exactly how to make our dog feel safe, happy, and completely at home. Our dog was treated like a member of her family and had the time of his life playing with Ralphie and the other dogs. The adorable photos and videos gave us so much peace of mind while we were away...and honestly, I think he was a little sad to come home, which is probably the highest compliment a dog can give. We will absolutely book again. Weekend at Ralphie’s is officially dog-approved!”
“Jeanette took great care of my dog. She was communicative and took great photos. I knew my dog was better off with her than boarded somewhere.”
“Judy was absolutely wonderful to work with for our dog Simba. We felt comfortable and relaxed to leave him for an extended time for the first time. We could also tell that Simba really enjoyed his time with Judy and Bill. They made him feel right at home, and took such thoughtful and attentive care of him!”
“Cecilia was great with our Mara. Mara is a total lap doggie and needed to be with her anytime she was home and Cecilia was happy to give her the attention she needed.”
“Kiki had a great time staying at Melissa’s. She got along well with Melissa’s two dogs and Melissa sent us text updates with photos which gave us peace of mind that Kiki was acclimating well in the new environment. We will definitely keep Melissa in mind next time we need Rover!”
“Diana took really good care of our dog Lucy for over a week! She was flexible and gave us updates. When we picked up Lucy we can tell she was happy and enjoyed Diana and her family’s company! Thank you Diana for loving Lucy while we were away!”
“Leaving our dogs with Katelyn & Andrew was like leaving them with family. We loved getting our daily photo updates and seeing just how happy our pups were with them. We had total peace of mind that they were getting the best care while we were away. Our dogs may have even been sad to leave!”
“Mario took great care of our Rhea when we went on vacation. He consistently updated us everyday with pictures of our dog. He responds to us right away and made us feel that Rhea is well taken cared of. Thank you, Mario!”
“Marta cared for my 11 year old puggle. - Lucy. Communication on drop off was very good. During the stay, Marta provided photos and updates on Lucy. Lucy looked happy and comfortable. Picking up was organized and easy. Lucy looked great when I picked her up! I would definitely have Marta watch her again!”
“Eileen is wonderful and took great care of our 11 year old dog. She is why we use Rover, so our pet can have a comfortable and friendly home while we're away. We look forward to having our dog stay with her again.”
“Michelle was great! Excellent communication, plenty of pictures sent while we were gone. Benny certainly looked like he was having a good time there, and she was helpful and understanding when our plane was delayed”
“Julia helped us with a last minute weekend stay for our senior dog. She sent daily pictures with updates about how he was doing. She’s had a senior dog herself and was familiar with his medicine and was able to give the pills without a problem. Her home had no stairs, which was perfect for our dog since he has arthritis. She lives in a beautiful, quiet, safe neighborhood with minimal traffic and sidewalks perfect for walks.”
“Allis made my outdoor-loving Beagle feel right at home! Every video and picture she sent showed my little girl having the time of her life. She is definitely my go-to sitter forALL of my work trips!!”
“Michelle was fantastic at making sure my dog had the best time while with her! From the very beginning, Michelle was very communicative and made the whole experience feel straightforward and easy. I also really appreciated the updates and getting to see how much fun my dog was having. I will absolutely be asking for availability again in the future and would recommend anyone looking for pet care to reach out as well!”

Dar took wonderful care of my dogs while I was away! They seemed very happy and comfortable during their stay and were clearly well cared for. Dar made sure they got plenty of walks and lots of time outside, which they absolutely love. It gave me great peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. I would definitely recommend Dar to anyone looking for a caring and dependable dog sitter, and I would happily have my dogs stay with Dar again!
Amanda and her daughter could not have taken better care of our dog, Luke. He had not stayed with someone new for many years, so we knew it wouldn't be easy for them at first until he got used to this new environment. They were extremely caring and we received daily updates, and went over and above in every way including providing some really thoughtful parting gifts. I highly recommend that you trust Amanda with caring for your dog, and I would give a 10-star review if I could!
Melissa was a wonderful host for my pet, Nysa. She took great care of her for the entire week and kept us updated regularly with pictures, which we really appreciated. It looks like Nysa had so much fun with her kids and her dogs! Melissa was also very helpful when Nysa ran out of food and made sure she had what she needed. Overall, Melissa did a great job caring for Nysa, and we would definitely love to have her stay with Melissa again the next time we travel. Highly recommend her! 🐾❤️
We had such a wonderful experience with Hannah! She was an excellent communicator, sent us plenty of photos and updates, and was incredibly knowledgeable and attentive. We felt completely at ease knowing Milo was in such great hands, and he came home a very happy pup! We would absolutely recommend her and would happily book with her again!
Cindy and her family took such good care of Aslan this past week! They so graciously accepted Aslan even when they had just gotten a brand new puppy, so Aslan got to play big brother for a whole week! Cindy sent me so many pictures and videos everyday! I picked up a very happy and tired pup at the end of our trip! Great family to trust with your dog!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Prospect Heights on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of September 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 5,416 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.
