“Theresa is simply amazing. She came through for my fur baby at the last minute when we needed to leave town. She was kind, patient and answered all of my questions to help soothe any anxieties with leaving my fur baby in someone else’s care. She was on time for pickup and drop off. She sent pictures and responded to text and phone calls promptly. You can’t go wrong with Theresa!!”
“Mary did and excellent job of taking care of my dog Clyde. She exceeded my expectations. You can see her love for animals and the joy it brings her. She welcomed my dog into her home like he was her own. I can't thank her enough for taking such good care of Clyde. Mary now is my go to dog sitter. Thank you again!”
“family 3 times now, and have had a great experience each and every time. They are the first people that we have ever had watch him, and to be honest we’re pretty nervous about it. We even scheduled an overnight for him to try it out, on a night when we were not even going anywhere, so that we could make sure he did ok and that we were comfortable leaving him in their hands Lisa and Russ (her husband) are so friendly and from the moment we drove up the first time, they made us and Nico feel welcome. They showed us around and introduced Nico to their two dogs one at a time, making sure they got along and didn’t overwhelm each other. By the time we left, I don’t think Nico even noticed, because he was having such a blast. Lisa is great about sending updates and photos of his stay, and always has a fun story about his stay when we come back to pick him up. While it’s never easy to leave your pup in the hands of others, we feel very grateful to have found a great home away from home for Nico when we can be with him!”
“We gave Tanya the difficult job of taking care of a puppy who is full of energy, sometimes easily bored, and a bit naughty. She took good care of him and turned what might have been a fearful two weeks at a kennel into a fun vacation. Tanya accommodated certain dietary requests and kept us calm and amused with her frequent photos and videos of our puppy. Tanya has a great disposition, loves dogs, and puts in extra effort to make our dog happy and our time away worry-free. We highly recommend her services. -- Richard V.”
“Natiia was wonderful with my dog. He stayed for a week with no issues at all. Communication was good. Pictures were greatly appreciated while away. Would recommend and use again. 💕”
About: We have had a dog or dogs for over 20 years. My husband and I both grew up with dogs as well. Our two dogs have been with us since they were puppies and both of them attended three levels of dog training classes. I work part-time very early in the morning and we spend a lot of time at home because my kids are homeschooled. There is usually always someone at home. I will do as much as I can to accommodate the dog owner’s preference in care for their dog. We have two dogs that can play with your dog. If your dog needs to be in a crate I can accommodate that. Our dogs are not allowed on the couches and chairs but my children do let them sleep in their beds.
“Julia did a wonderful job caring for my two cats for five days. She’s very knowledgeable about cat behavior and kept me updated with messages and pictures, which gave me great peace of mind. She was also kind, flexible, and easy to communicate with. I would definitely book her again!”
“Madison did such a great job with Cooper! His excitement, new environment jitters and eating too fast caused him to vomit the first couple of days. Madison handled it like a pro, she seeked guidance from the vet who confirmed what seemed to be happening. She adjusted his food intake to help him keep food down and made some other changes which fixed the problem! Goose, their dog, was a wonderful big brother to Cooper and they all gave him love like he was their own. Cooper was taken on lovely walks on trails and to the dog park and Goose also shared his antlers with Coop which is now his favorite thing to chew! We were very happy with the care given to our crazy little kid and Madison went over and beyond!”
“My dogs had a great time at daycare! Sumer provided pictures and feedback upon pick up to let me know how their day went. This was reassuring since it was their first time!”
“Our 15 month old Maltipoo had never spent a night apart from us and had limited interaction with other dogs. We had a need for an overnight stay and decided to try Rover which led us to Emily and Thomas as they lived close by. We are so very thankful that we found them! They spent three days in a week leading up to the stay having Charlie come over for walks and spent time inside their place trying to get him used to a new environment. They were so patient with him and so kind to him. They sent pictures and videos to help reassure us that he was doing well. They really went above and beyond in every way and we can recommend them highly enough! We can’t wait to have them sit with Charlie again later this summer and have him play with Monster! Thank you, Emily and Thomas!”
“Jonna took AMAZING care of our Blaike. Her and her family were gentle, attentive, caring, loving, and kind to her. They helped ease her anxiety, made sure she was always comfortable and secure, and gave her so much love, rubs, and affection. They truly treated her like a member of the family. We will absolutely be utilizing her Boarding services for our next trip, and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone needing a sitter. Thank you so much Jonna!!😊❤️❤️❤️”
“Jacqueline took such great care of our dog while we were out of town. She and her family treated our dog as if he was their own. We couldn't be happier with Jacqueline. She's the best! ❤️”
“I can't believe how Angelina got my shy-with-everyone-but-me dog to cuddle up to her! She really is a dog whisperer! My two babies had a fantastic time with her and seemed to especially like the backyard for running and playing. I definitely recommend her!”
“Lauren took amazing care of Nadja! She had so much fun with her kids, friends and boyfriend, all who she loved so much! Lauren sent us so many updates throughout the weekend with pictures and videos, and ensured she got her medications as well with ease. Nadja came back to us happy, and played out ready for big snuggles.”

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 Ridott 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 Ridott.
<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 Ridott 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.
