“Patricia is a wonderful & caring person who treats your dog like family. Not knowing what we would expect in her care for our dog Stella due to her medical issues , Patricia went above & beyond what we ever imagined. She allowed us to enjoy our vacation & not worry about our Stella while we were thousands of miles away. She is a gem!!”

“Monica and Daniel are very wonderful people who take excellent care of our furry baby! Right off the bat when we first met them we got an excellent first impression. They are very warm and friendly and were great with our pet! They play with her and take her for walks. When we came home after our weekend away our pet was relaxed and happy. During our time away, they sent us photos and updates of our baby which was really nice ? I look forward to booking them again in the future!! Even my 7 y.o. son likes them too and told me that we should leave our pet again with them next time. Thanks for doing such a great job, keep up the great work!! ❤”
About: At 13 I had the privilege of being a doggy mom, I wouldn’t replace the moments for a thing! I love dogs and they deserve to feel safe and cared for. ROD dog lover! I am now 20 and my bestie for the restie is my fur baby🥰 I am currently doing online school and have a flexible work schedule. Commonly work nights mostly during the weekends but am able to go in whenever I have 2 dogs! My sisters cat visits here and there. My dogs are both Shih Tzu and Maltese. 1 boy 1 girl. They are very accustomed to our home and are very well trained!
“Mark did a great job watching my boy Cooper. Sent pictures every day, contacted me right away when there was an issue ( my dog is diabetic). I would highly recommend Mark.”
“Another great stay at Elizabeth's house for our energetic puppy. When we brought him home he was sad and whiney because he wanted to go back he had so much fun. We love this family and their care that they give Oliver. If you are on the fence about using Rover....search no further and give Elizabeth and her sweet family a try. You will not be disappointed with their exceptional care of your furry friend!”
“Zuri was well cared for during her stay at Donelle’s. Lots of cuddles and she was quite pampered. Donelle only hosts one dog at a time, which worked out perfect for me and Zuri. Zuri got undivided attention. Thanks Donelle!”
“Bola did such an amazing job with my PawSon, Zuko! She checked in daily during our trip, kept us aware of any behavior that wasn’t typical to his schedule and sent us lots of cute photos. She’s so kind and gave Zuko soooo much love. We will def be using her again.. she’s family now!”
“Christine was friendly and professional in her care for my dog Woody. She sent pics everyday which I appreciated and said how he was doing. She even washed his bedding when he was leaving. I will book again in the future because of her excellent care as she knew how to care for any problems. Thank you Christine”
“Laura took the best care of our 2 small dogs! She was flexible with our drop off /pick up times and sent pics each day. We asked her to keep an extra eye on our tiny escaping puppy, and Laura took extra care with the leash and yard. So comforting to leave the pups knowing they have company and watchful care!”

Latasha is the best, she made the whole process Completely simple and easy. I will be using her services again. And I can tell that my dog Charlie really did enjoy his stay. She kept me informed and sent lots of pictures. Thank you for providing my dog a home away from home.
My pup Apollo had a wonderful stay with Latasha! He loved spending time with her daughters and got plenty attention and playtime. She was very kind and sent pictures and updates while I was out of town, which put me at ease about being away from him. I would 100% book with Latasha again for future boarding needs!

There are 4,827 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Riverdale. About 91% of Riverdale 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.
