“Megan was very welcoming and accommodated some last-minute travel plans and made Copper feel right at home. He also got along well with her three pups. He enjoyed having a fenced in backyard where he could run around and play. Thank you!”
“This is the second time Wolfie stayed with Kim while we visited Great Wolf Lodge. Although he is nervous and doesn't like strangers, he had an easy time warming up to Kim. She sent us many updates of them going on walks, enjoying her outdoor area, and (his lap dog favorite) keeping close while she worked. When he wouldn't eat his usual dog food, she prepared him special food (with our blessing). We always knew he was in excellent hands and will be back for another visit if we head to Great Wolf Lodge or Great America!”
“Angela & Dave took great care of Scout. Angela was very communicative and sent photo updates throughout the stay. Scout made new friends with their dogs and the others staying too.”
“Milo's stay at Stella's was great! I appreciated her honesty as he has some treat aggression. He was great with her dog Buddy and liked one of the other dogs staying but not the labradoodle. I'm grateful she was able to keep him a little later too, as our flight got back late. She sent pictures regularly and I loved seeing Milo in motion! Thank you for taking such great care of my little pup!”
“We left our pup, George, with Jacob for a week and while we were anxious about leaving him for so long, Jacob put our minds at ease with updates and photos. Jacob truly cares about the dogs in his care and helped make our family vacation even better knowing George was in good hands.”
“My pet had spent the fantastic days in her house because I felt he didn’t want to go back home with me. I appreciated about what I could get good travel due to her care.”
“Rusty was a great match for our Frankie. At the meet and greet he asked many questions to get to know Frankie's personality. We left him for 10 nights and had daily pictures/movies of Frankie. Frankie is a senior and in the hot days of July his comfort was considered. It was nice to leave him in good care.”
“Kelsey was absolutely amazing! I was in a tough spot — I was getting married and the friend who was supposed to watch my dog, Inc, canceled last minute. I had no one lined up and was pretty stressed. I did a meet-and-greet with Kelsey and her husband, and right away I felt completely comfortable. They were both so kind and welcoming, and their home was perfect for Inc. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Kelsey went above and beyond, and I had total peace of mind on such an important day. If I could give her more than five stars, I absolutely would! I will definitely be using her again in the future.”
“Thank you Elaina and Joseph for allowing me to book with a short notice and for being very flexible with dropoff and pickup times. Communication was excellent, constant updates and pictures, and great care. You'll definitely be my sitter of choice when I'm in the area. Thank you!!”
“Byron and Martha are the best. They took really good care of our dog Noki. They followed up each day with photos and followed all instructions for care. Will be reaching out again for his service thru Rover. For sure a 5 star sitter. Thanks again!”
“Anna was super kind and accommodating. She did take pictures (which I so appreciate) including on walks. My dog was a bit high energy and Anna managed well - I know because he came back tired. Also, super helpful when we had to cut the trip short. TY Anna!”
“My pup had tons of fun playing with Kathryns dogs! She gave him lots of love and sent me plenty of cute pictures throughout the day. I'll definitely be booking with her again!”
“We are so lucky to have found such a wonderful dogsitter! Chisato goes over and beyond what we expect. We never worry about Winnie while we’re away because we know she is well cared for. We appreciate the photos and comments that are sent to us throughout Winnie’s stay. Winnie loves Chisato and enjoys the time she spends with her. Chisato has certainly earned recognition for being a STAR sitter!”
“Gage was super awesome and attentive with Ramona’s care. He gave us constant updates and pictures while we were gone. His dog was super friendly with Ramona, and even sent me videos of them both playing together. Gage will definitely be our first option on our next trip!!”
“Tommy & Julie are fantastic! My dog has separation anxiety and fear of storms/fireworks. They comforted her and stayed with her the whole week. She was happy and healthy when I picked her up. I highly recommend them and am happy to have found them. They TRULY care about our dogs and it shows. We will definitely call them again.”
About: As a lifelong dog lover, I’ve had the joy of raising two dogs from puppies, giving me firsthand experience with everything from potty training and basic training to the high energy and patience that young dogs require. I have been dog sitting for friends & family in Michigan & Illinois for 3 years now. In my professional life, I’m an Occupational Therapist who works with older adults. I regularly help residents safely care for and enjoy time with their beloved pets, so I’m experienced in recognizing changes in behavior, adapting to individual needs, and providing calm, attentive care. I’m also comfortable with senior dogs who may need a slower pace. Because I’m young and active, I love getting outside for walks, playtime, and adventures that help energetic dogs stay happy and engaged. Whether your pup wants a long walk, a game of fetch, or just lots of cuddles and companionship, I’ll tailor my care to their personality and routine. My goal is to treat every dog as if they were my own, so you can feel confident they’re safe, loved, and having a great time while you’re away! I work a normal 9-5 Monday-Friday. Therefore I prefer to do Friday afternoon-Sunday evening stays! This way I am available 24/7 for the pet. I have a fenced in yard (that is also dig proof). I currently have one very friendly dog who would be eager to any pups companion. My dog is allowed on furniture/in beds. We have a lot of sidewalks & trails within our neighborhood for walks. I have multiple security cameras.
“Francine is very professional, a true dog lover and immensely kind with every one and every special needs. I had my little one taken care for 4th July weekend in a very short notice Francine was very eased very much our meet and greet appointment at her place. I received plenty of photos and I was relaxed and very happy during my dog’s stay. I would definitely book her again!”

Rusty was a great match for our Frankie. At the meet and greet he asked many questions to get to know Frankie's personality. We left him for 10 nights and had daily pictures/movies of Frankie. Frankie is a senior and in the hot days of July his comfort was considered. It was nice to leave him in good care.
**Stella is AMAZING!!!** We couldn’t be happier with the care she provided for our pup. He gets so excited when we drop him off, which says everything about how comfortable and happy he is with her. Stella is incredibly accommodating and takes the time to learn everything about your dog — feeding schedule, playtime, routines, and all the little details that make them feel at home. Our dog gets stressed in new situations and sometimes has accidents, so she recommended some great disposable male wraps that worked perfectly. She kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. This was the longest he has ever been away from us — a full 10 days — and he had such a great time! He got his treats when needed, was fed on the schedule we requested, and was clearly well cared for. We highly recommend Stella to anyone looking for someone who will treat their dog like family. ❤️
Our dog had another wonderful stay — truly like a little vacation! We received daily photos showing our dog happy, relaxed, and clearly enjoying her “vacation.” The communication was excellent, the home environment is warm and safe, and our dog comes back calm and content every time. We’re grateful to have found such a reliable and caring sitter.
We have left our two miniature schnauzers sever times for a month at a time when we take our annual summer vacation overseas. The dogs love Norma and her big beautiful back yard. Norma is great at updating us with pictures and little video clips of the pups while we are away. That definitely helps ease missing our fur babies. Thank you Norma. See you again next summer.
My dogs had a wonderful time staying with Angela and her family. The younger one especially played with her dogs from morning to night, and came home good and tired. Angela sent both pictures and video so I could see how they were doing. I didn’t worry about them the entire time. Thank you Angela and family!
I cannot recommend Annie enough! This was my first time leaving my dog Zeus with her, and I was completely at ease the entire time. She and her husband are incredibly kind people who clearly have a passion for dogs. I received frequent messages and photo updates, which I appreciated so much. Best of all, my dog got along with theirs—it was like a little vacation for him, too! I will absolutely be booking with her again in the future. If you’re looking for a sitter who treats your dog like their own, look no further. Annie is fantastic.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Round Lake Beach on Rover is $39.96 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 1,320 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Round Lake Beach. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
92% of Round Lake Beach sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Round Lake Beach landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Round Lake Beach 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 Round Lake Beach.
Tip: 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 Round Lake Beach 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.
