“Patricia took great care of Tess for us! She was very communicative and send lots of updates. Tess came home happy and healthy! We would definitely ask Patricia to help us with Tess again”
“My dog Olly had his best vacation at Allis' place. Allis was pleasant to work with, very responsive and regularly shared videos and pics of Olly too. I would love go back to her in future too and also recommend her to anyone in need.”
“We brought Scotch to Kent’s place for Christmas while we went out of state. Kent was so kind from the start and Scotch warmed up to him very quickly. We were so glad to see our shy boy so happy in all the photos Kent sent us. Scotch was picked up happy, healthy, well fed, and well walked. We will definitely be reaching out to Kent when we need a sitter again. Would definitely recommend!”
“We left our 5-month-old Sheepoo with this sitter for the first time while we were away on a weekend trip, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. Communication was excellent from the start—the sitter was always quick to respond and kept us updated regularly. Most importantly, it was clear how much they genuinely cared for and loved our puppy, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Before his stay, our puppy was very hesitant during walks and would often get scared by passing cars. To our surprise, after spending time with this sitter, he became much more confident and comfortable on walks. We were amazed by the improvement. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of our pup. We truly appreciate everything you did and would absolutely book with you again!”
“Rosie's love and care for our two dogs, Charlie and Peanut, was excellent. We boarded our ten-year-old special-needs dog (Peanut) and our fourteen-year-old senior dog (Charlie) for a few days with Rosie. She was able to administer medications and handle the different needs of each dog. We also greatly appreciate the help of Rosie's little dog, Bella and her daughter, Ruby. We have already booked a second boarding stay with Rosie due the confidence we have in her care for our doggies. Hooray!”
“Kaylee was super great!! Edy loved staying there and got tons of energy and excitement out too! We got tons of pictures from her overnight and lots of updates. Our dog came home super happy and tired!”
“Julie & Mark provided the BEST overnight experience for my dog, Elsie. They really cared for her as if she was their own and sent many cute updates with pictures. They kept her active in their fenced in back yard playing catch and playing with their dog.”
“Donna is a great sitter! She was extremely patient in in helping Eli adjust to his new surroundings (he can be nervous in new environments) and sent regular updates and photos. When I picked him up he seemed so relaxed and happy in her home. It was obvious he had a great stay (unlike when I’ve boarded him at my vet). Her dog, Slugger, got along so well with Eli too! Donna is a kind, loving sitter who I will use again and recommend highly!”
“My mini Doxie is definitely anxious and sensitive and I always feel nervous leaving him with someone. Not only was Beans comfortable but I was made to feel confident with all the pictures and videos throughout the stay! Would definitely use Yaqi again!”
“Steph was awesome! This was my first experience with Rover and I have a Boykin Spaniel, which is a 16 month old 40lb high energy hunting machine. She excepted the challenge and treated Kola like he was her own. Very pleased with the whole experience and Steph. I took a fly-in fishing to the northern woods of Canada and due to fires and bad weather in the area had to extend my stay for an additional two days up there because the float plane couldn't come get us. Steph rearranged her schedule to accommodate me. I didn't expect her to do that but greatly appreciate her for doing so. I highly recommend Steph, will use her again in the future (that is if she'll let me LOL).”
“Gracie had a wonderful time. She was very, very well taken care of. I had pictures at least twice a day that made me feel that she was so safe. She seemed happy and having a very good time and very comfortable. I will not hesitate to use Susan again if I need Gracie to be watched, they’re very nice people. I feel that I have also made new friends for life.”
“April was fantastic. She sent photo updates daily on Layla and when I came to pick up our dog she was outside playing with her with her kids. My dog was visibly happy and well cared for, highly recommend:)”
“First-time Rover user and first-time using dog sitting services outside of family. Bonnie was fantastic and immediately put my mind at ease. She was great with our 5-month-old puppy who loved socializing and playing with Bonnie's family and other dogs. We will definitely be using Bonnie in the future!”
“Tosha is located near the Bartlett, IL commuter train station. We visited Chicago for the weekend. Tosha responded promptly to all of our notes and questions. She was responsible when caring for our 12 yr old Jake for 2 days. Thank you!! Will use Tosha when we are in the area again.”
“Kira was excellent with our dog, Jojo. I don't think Jojo wanted to come back home after her stay with Kira. Kira provided daily photos of our dog. All in all Kira is wonderful and will do great with any pet. We will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Arielle was wonderful with Charlie! She kept me updated, took great care of him, and made sure he felt comfortable. I really appreciate her kindness and patience. Highly recommend!”
“When I picked up my dog she was very happy so I am pretty sure she did a great job taking care of Nalla. She was helpful with updates and I will definitely use her service again.”
“Roberto and his family did a wonderful job sitting for our dog Hopper while we were on vacation for two weeks. He sent us pictures and updates every day or two. They really made Hopper part of the family (even though Hopper kept stealing all of their dog’s toys and attention). We were very happy to be able to leave Hopper in a home where he was so well cared for.”

Julie and Mark are our trusted dog sitters when we travel from STL to Hoffman Estates, IL to visit family. Julie responds promptly and sends pictures and videos. Winston loves their yard and playing with their dog. I am grateful to have found them. They will continue to be our source when in town.
Jason was awesome with my dog! He was communicative, honest and sent lots of pictures which I appreciated. He was also flexible since he kindly agreed to extend the stay when a family situation came up. We also recommended him to my mother in law and he is also taking care of their dog. We will definitely use Jason's services again in the future! Thank you, Jason!
We had a great experience with Allis. She was very genuine from the moment we had our meet and greet. She understood our concerns with our doodle, who can be tempermental at times. Communicated with us everyday and our dog connected with her and her family. We highly recommend and would definitely board with her in the future.
Kim is a fantastic sitter, who is very understanding of my dog's needs. She worked with him through some behavioral issues he was having in a new environment/setting. She is extremely knowledgeable about dogs and how to care for them. Unfortunately, her care is not the right fit for my dog, but it is no reflection of the care and support that she gave him throughout his visits. I would recommend Kim to friends and family.

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Schaumburg on Rover is $46.62 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 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 September 2026, there are 5,292 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Schaumburg. 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.
93% of Schaumburg 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 Schaumburg 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 Schaumburg 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 Schaumburg.
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 Schaumburg 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.
