About: I have fed, cuddled, and played with many different cats and dogs that we had from childhood until now. Pets of all kinds, have always been a part of my family and I would love to be a part of yours when you need to get away! I work from home so my schedule is flexible, accomodating mornings and evenings, which is perfect to tuck your little one in or feed them breakfast. I am available to drop in for walks, feedings, or even just socialization at your descretion. Anytime of day works for me as I can schedule around your needs.
“Elizabeth took such great care of Finley! She wrapped her up in a blanket when she noticed Finley getting scared of a thunderstorm. Her dog Lorax was also so sweet. They have a lovely home with a nice backyard. Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter!”
“Deb was so kind and attentive! She sent tons of photos and videos and Penny loved her stay! Penny got a ton of exercise and Deb even gave her a little trim while she was there! 10/10, highly recommend!”
About: Say goodbye to worries when leaving your pet behind. Picture your fur baby enjoying daily playtime, meals, cozy naps, and daily walks around the neighborhood from a playful dog lover, sitter, and friend. 🐶❤️ I currently work from home on a hybrid so I’ll have plenty of flexibility to play with your fur babies! I am also available for doggy daycare daily! I have a small dog park in my apartment which provides a fun space to meet and play with other doggies! I also have experience potty training pups!
“Katie was phenomenal and loved our Taz as if he was her own! We got lots of photos and updates and reassurance that he was adjusting well to his long stay with her. I definitely recommend Katie and will be rebooking!”
“Would definitely recommend Mandy! She was excellent with our pups, sending many photos and updates. Because they had some company with other pups, it felt like they got their own little vacation too.”
“I felt very safe leaving my dog with Jane, I received daily pictures and updates and nothing was lost when I came to pick up (blanket, toys, bowls, etc). Highly recommend Jane :)”
“We loved working with Leslie! She did a great job of keeping us up-to-date with how stitches was doing and sending lots of photos. We’re so glad to have someone take such great care of our dog when we’re away.”
“Maddie is great! She’s certainly a dog person and was responsive while she had my sweet girl. I would be happy to recommend her to anyone looking for loving care for the fur babies. Her two dogs are very sweet and I know kept my dog company.”
“Maya was great. She is definitely experienced with dogs and handled our crazy pup very well. She sent us a bunch of photos of our pup while we were on vacation. This was our first time using a dog a sitter and she did everything she could to help us feel at ease through the process.”
“Besides continued issues with the Rover App (our messages to each other do not always get delivered and I know it’s not on her because my messages don’t make it to her sometimes too), everything was great.”
“Ruthie was awesome. My dog was only with Ruthie for 2 nights, but I got updates and when I got home, my pooch slept for a whole day. She was exhausted from the weekend. I would recommend Ruthie.”
About: I have always been passionate about animal care, specifically dogs. I have 3.5 years of veterinary technician experience and have also worked at boarding facilities such as Pet Paradise. I am a student at Saint Louis University majoring in Biology, furthering my education in animal behavior. I enjoy jogging in my spare time, and have the stamina needed to play with or jog with pets. I am available on weekends during the day and most evenings. There’s nothing I love more than taking care of pets! I look forward to taking care of your fur babies! I am a current graduate student, and therefore am working several hours a day during the week, but I am available most nights and on the weekends anytime! I am a helicopter parent when it comes to my own dog, and treat other pets with the same level of care and caution. I love sending pictures (if allowed) to ensure great care, and frequently keeps owners updated on how their fur babies are doing.
“Izzy had a great time with Marie and her family! He loved getting so much attention from Marie, the kids, and other dogs in the home. He was taken on hikes and walks. Great communication and pictures of his stay.”
“Monica was amazing! This was our first experience with using Rover and I cannot recommend Monica enough. If I could give 10 stars I would. She provided daily updates with pictures, she has a fenced yard and has room for them to play. My husband and I were able to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing our two puppies were well cared for and enjoying themselves. I highly recommend Monica.”

A reliable sitter who was great with my shy cat! Patient and allowed her to come out of her shell at her own pace, and encouraging and warm when my cat started to open up. Sent lots of updates to give me peace of mind. Experienced sitter. Would definitely book again.
Jessica is a wonderful sitter who our dog, Velvet, adores. Jessica is super communicative and sends updates and photos throughout the day. Her house comes srocked with all the amenities. Velvet loves playing and exploring in Jessica's yard and getting spoiled. It's basically a resort for her! :)
Jenay was great and I can tell her and her kids love all the pups that come to their house. My golden retriever ran right into her house when I dropped him off and the daily pics Jenay sent me showed just how much fun he had. It was so lovely to not have to worry about my pup and if he was safe and happy! Will definitely be back next time we are out of town. Highly recommend! She is extremely sweet and responds very quickly which I think all pet parents can appreciate! Thanks again Jenay
Morgan was an exceptional host for my 5 month old pup while I was away for work. Great communication and went above and beyond, even gave my dog a bath before pickup. The house had a large backyard and my dog absolutely loved Morgan's other dog and they got lots of playtime in. Thanks, Morgan!

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Swansea is $32 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $44 per night. 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 905 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Swansea. About 92% of Swansea 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.
