“Finn had the besttttt time!! Kim took amazing care of our boy and kept us sooooo updated! I could just tell he had the most amazing time on their walks!! Thank youu so much again!!”
“Angela is an amazing dog sitter! She’s watched both my dogs and has always taken such great care of them! I trust her and I know my dogs are well taken care of. She’s so sweet and is always sending pictures and giving updates.”
“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.”
“udith was wonderful with Linny! My biggest concern when using Rover is that Linny tends not to eat when he's in a new environment. Judith treated him like he was her own and made sure he was eating properly. Whenever he wasn't interested in food, she spent extra time playing with him to help build up his appetite. It was clear she genuinely cared about his well-being. I would definitely book with Judith again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and attentive sitter.”
“Open & easy communication. My dog that is very hesitant of new people went up to Norma automatically and on her own. Norma followed my instructions for medication & being leashed. She eased my anxiety greatly for what I’d consider a worrisome dog (she is a runner) will be using again for our next trip. Thank you Norma!”
“Sandy is truly the best rover I've had for my little ones. She's so attentive & always takes pictures and updates me everyday! My boys truly love staying over there and love how amazing she is with them ❤️”
“Stella and her family were great with the pups and provided daily pictures and updates! Stella was great with making sure she understood each dog's individual needs during drop off and had everything ready to go right when we arrived for pickup. A great experience for dogs and humans alike!”
“Tommy and Julie were great. They watched my two dogs for six days and provided me with updates and videos multiple times per day. It was clear my boys were safe, happy, and loved while there. Will definitely be working with Tommy and Julie in the future when I have to leave town!”
“Chisato treated Casper and Gracie like they were members of her own family. She constantly kept us in the loop of their daily goings on with many pictures and movies! Casper and Gracie were having such a good time, I don't think they wanted to come home.😊”
“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!”
“Quincy had a blast during his sleepover at Jacob’s! Quincy has saparation anxiety and usually gets stressed out when we leave him but it was clear that he was happy and well rested when we picked him up from Jacob’s place. We love Jacob’s attention to detail as well as he was asking all the right questions during our meet and greet.”
“JoAnne is amazing! She is so good with our dogs and they clearly have a great time there. She sent pictures every day and it really helped seeing how happy our dogs were. She was completely understanding when our flight got cancelled which made the whole ordeal a little better knowing our fur babies were in great hands. We will absolutely use JoAnne again.”
“I will forever be booking with sunshine, our dog Tyson was right at home with her and her family. We loved receiving all the pictures and messages letting us know how he was doing.”
“My 6-yo German Shepherd had a wonderful time at Dee's place! My dog, who is a rescue and doesn't do very well at pet hotels (she always gets stressed out and gets diarrhea) didn't have any health issues after I picked her up from Dee's house. Dee is amazing - she takes care of your dog with such love and care, as if they are her own! I'd definitely go back to Dee next time we need a sitter and she's available!”
“Megan took wonderful care of my 8‑month‑old golden retriever during his very first 5‑day boarding stay. She kept me updated every day with pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. He was clearly happy, safe, and well cared for. I’m very happy with her service and will definitely recommend her and book with her again.”
“This was the first time used Rover in many years, and first time with my current pup Gibby. I was a bit nervous leaving him with people we'd just met but my worry was wasted. Rizwan, Noor and their family took great care of my pup. He was walked multiple times a day, was showered with pets and was able to monitor their neighborhood from a perfect viewing spot. They kindly welcomed him (us) into their home for a very comfortable stay. Thank you Noor and Rizwan for taking such good care of Gibby.”
“Carla is the best!! She watched our Bichon over a long weekend and gave him great care. He’s a VERY picky eater and being a Senior pooch, can be a little difficult at times. Carla sent us videos and pictures all weekend and it was relief to see him enjoying himself.”
“Repeat customer. Diane takes great care of our Princess and we are very happy with her dog sitter services. We can travel with peace of mind knowing our dog is being well cared for by Diane.”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Third Lake is $50
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Third Lake
I was extremely happy with Jacob and Jasper absolutely loved staying with him. I booked with Jacob for 2 1/2 weeks while I was in Europe. I was nervous because that is the longest I had ever left my boy and I had only done a brief meet & greet a few months earlier. Jacob made me feel so comfortable when I dropped Jasper off and I left knowing that he was in great hands. He communicated with me & sent pictures/videos frequently while I was gone. By the time I came home I think Jasper was having so much fun that he didn’t want to leave! I will definitely be booking with Jacob again in the future!!
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.
Our experience was wonderful. Our dog had the best time staying with Jordan, getting lots of love, interactions, and playtime. Jordan made it really easy for us to have a relaxing vacation, knowing that our dog was taken care of. Our pup (and family) is so glad to have found a new friend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Third Lake on Rover is $51.55 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 1,595 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Third Lake. 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 Third Lake 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 Third Lake 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 Third Lake 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 Third Lake.
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 Third Lake 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.
