“Our pup, June, has loved her stays with Cheri. Most recently, she stayed with Cheri over our Spring break which coincided with June’s birthday. Cheri was amazing, she celebrated June’s birthday with a pup party, complete with cake and a party hat!!”
“Karla did a great job taking care of our dog, Lucky. We’ve only had Lucky for a few months, and as a rescue from Texas, he has a lot of separation anxiety. Karla was very understanding and made him feel relaxed and at home, while also being patient with all of his little foibles. She sent us lots of pictures and videos, which we really appreciated. She also has a great setup for dogs, including a large long condo with plenty of space for running around. We would definitely recommend Karla to others!”

Skippy thoroughly enjoyed his time with Cynthia. She was so welcoming and a wonderful communicator with daily photos and comments that reflected how well she got to know our Yorkie. We all look forward to future visits where we won’t have to worry about the care our dog is receiving. 5 star plus!!!!!!
Claire did amazing with our 8 mo puppy. Claire is very calm, experienced, and caring. Besides taking good care of our pup, Sage also came home with a new skill I hadn’t been able to teach. Claire had a great assessment of Sage, and was able to meet her on her level. We already have future dates swith Claire cheduled.
Abaigael was amazing with Aya! She sent frequent updates and I could tell from the pictures that Aya was so happy with her and her family! Super friendly and communicative, I'm super grateful to know Aya was in great company! Oh and she has the cutest pup! Thanks again!
Jennifer took care of our exuberant shepherd mix for a week while we were out of town. She was always communicative and flexible with dropoff and pickup. We never had any worries and he always is excited to visit Jennifer. We will definitely book with her again. Thank you, Jennifer!
We had a wonderful experience with Rima! She took great care of our dogs, Milo and Oreo, and our cat, Cleo, while we were away. They were all very happy, well cared for, and clearly comfortable with her. She treated them like her own and gave us peace of mind throughout the stay. We truly appreciated the love and attention she gave them, and we would definitely book with her again. Highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Skokie on Rover is $68.82 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 5,380 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Skokie. About 90% of Skokie 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.
