“Katey and her family were amazing. This was the first time I left my 1 year old dog with someone. She sent me pics daily and I knew my pup was in great hands. My Luna was so loved and well cared for.”
“Kyle did a great job watching Bailey. There were times in the past with other sitters where Bailey would come back traumatized and take a few days to get back to normal. After being with Kyle for four days Bailey was fine returning home. I think being the only dog at Kyle’s house is a big plus. We received periodic picture and video updates which help relieve our anxiety during the trip. We have no reservations in asking Kyle to watch Bailey again.”
“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.”
“Frank loved his time with Bob and had so much fun with the other dogs. Bob was always in communication and sent frequent updates with pictures of Frank playing. I'd definitely recommend!”
“Maria was a wonderful dog watcher, she was able to take my dog last minute as the other sitter cancelled. She sent me daily text message with pic of my dog everyday. I highly recommend her.”
“This was the first time of Bingo with Greg and Sonia. Bingo returned happy since she had the chance to make new friends and apparently boss them around ? We received pictures of Bingo as the days progressed and we could tell the difference of her getting more relaxed. We are booking again for Christmas ?”
About: With over 10 years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, I offer calm, attentive, one-on-one boarding in a clean and peaceful home. As a former groomer, I’m skilled in handling anxious, shy, or energetic dogs, and I’m confident in brushing, basic hygiene care, and reading canine body language. I currently have one friendly Shiba Inu at home, and I only host one client at a time—ensuring your dog receives my full attention and a safe, low-stress environment. Whether your dog enjoys playtime, slow walks, or quiet company, I adjust my care based on their routine and comfort level. Feel free to send me a message—I'd love to learn about your dog and how I can make their stay feel like home. Your dog’s care is naturally built into my daily routine. We start the morning with a refreshing walk, breakfast, and some calm bonding time. Throughout the day, your dog will enjoy structured potty breaks, enrichment games, and plenty of supervised relaxation. You will receive updates during these key moments—morning, afternoon, and evening—so you’ll always know how your dog is settling in. I stay closely aligned with your dog’s normal schedule to reduce stress and help them feel at home quickly. Consistency, supervision, and comfort are always my priorities. I provide full-time supervision when boarding, maintain a clean living space, and follow each dog’s feeding, medication, and potty schedule exactly as instructed. Dogs are never left unsupervised around my Shiba Inu, and introductions are done slowly and safely. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages throughout the day so you always know how your dog is doing.
“Our dog stayed with Lynn for the first time! Everything went well. Our dog hadn't stayed with anyone in a long time, but with time she came out of her shell and enjoyed her stay. Lynn's dogs are really nice too. It was nice getting a few pictures over the weekend along with text updates. We will use her again. Thanks!”
“Michelle took great care of Ivy for her 6 night stay. She kept us updated each day with pictures and it felt great knowing our girl was in good care while we were away.”
“Pebbles really enjoyed her stay with Sarah! Sarah was great at communicating and kept us updated with pics while we were away. Highly recommend and will be using Sarah again for our pup!”
“Hi , Kichu had a great time with Mario. He texted me and also replied my text in a timely manner so I could solve the problem easily . I was able to enjoy my trip peacefully. He sent me Kichu’s pictures and videos.I highly consider Mario next time. Thank you for your service.”
“Luciana took care of our 11 year old Beagle overnight and took extra special care of him. He enjoyed some yummy treats and a morning walk and plenty of yard time. We will definitely rebook again! Thank you!”
About: I have loved animals since childhood, and when I was a child I had a cat. I also lived with my boyfriend's family for a year, they had a dog and I took care of Him. Now periodically my friends leave their dogs with me when they go on a trip or on a business trip. I love this expression: "Dogs talk, but only to those who can listen." I work online so I have a lot of time to play and take care of your dogs. The second part of the day is more freely , but I have a flexible schedule and can combine work and pet care. I have a large one-room apartment with plenty of space for a dog. Near the house there is a large area outside for walking, a few minutes away there is a large park with a lake. I walk the dog several times a day, feed it on schedule, and play with the cats' and dogs' favorite toys.
“Groot had a great time with Michelle and her family. He was really cared for and had a fun time staying with them. We really appreciated the photos and updates throughout his stay. We would highly recommend Michelle and would definitely leave Groot in her care in the future.”
“Xu and Sam were absolutely wonderful. We left our senior girl with them for the weekend and couldn’t have picked a better home. They truly took care of her like she was their own.”
“June C. Did a wonderful job caring for our dog. She sent photos and updates daily and our Fred was well taken care of. He was happy and healthy. I will not hesitate to ask June to watch him again in the future.”
“Cinnamon had a great time and I loved that I was constantly getting updates from videos and texts! Made me feel secure that I dropped my puppy off at the right place! So much love and attention they provided to Cinnamon!”

Yenny was amazing. I left my rescue dog Ocean for the first time since I got her for two weeks with Yenny while I was away on vacation. She was always active on text and sent pictures and videos frequently. She took Ocean out on daily 2-3 mile walks, and her own dog was a great companion for mine. My dog loved her stay and Yenny was patient and great at helping her get accustomed to the new environment. Definitely recommend and will be going back for future boarding.
Julie and Mark were fantastic caretakers of our senior pup while we were out of town for a weekend! We are so grateful! Our dog takes a couple of medications and has a special diet. They were attentive to his schedule and patient with his anxiety. The daily updates and communication made us feel at ease. We highly recommend Julie and Mark!
Dave is exactly who we needed to take care of our Wrenny girl on our first weekend away. He provided photos and updates throughout the entire weekend. I was so impressed with his professionalism and love for dogs. You can really tell this is his passion! We will definitely use Dave again in the future. Thank you for taking such good care of our pup!
This is our 2nd time leaving our Brownie with Allis. She is very attentive, professional yet playful and caring with our dog and also very responsive. From updates and pictures every day to quick messages back. We know he is in great hands when he is with her.

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
There are 5,499 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Schaumburg. About 91% of Schaumburg 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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.
