“Lauryn took wonderful care of Marshmallow! Marshmallow came home happy, healthy, and well cared for. We truly appreciate her kindness and professionalism. I highly recommend Lauryn to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter. Thank you so much! ❤️🐾”
“We boarded our 2 little guys with Rosarin for several nights and could tell they were very well cared for. We got updates via the app on their days felt relieved they were in excellent care. Would highly recommend!”
“David and Mary were great! They sent me pictures of how my dog Pluto was doing when I dropped him off on an extended stay of 9 days. I could tell that he was loved and had a very comfortable stay with David and Mary. Would definitely book with them again.”
“Sonia provided us with pics and texts to allow us to keep up with how Misha was handling being left home when we needed to travel out of state. Misha who is housebroken and loves all human contact, didn't accept being left behind and presented Sonia with challenges that we never anticipated, taking out her unhappiness on her. Sonia rose to the challenge questioning us on how to handle her behaviors and ruling out any suspected health issues as causes. Misha was well cared for and I have no reservations recommending Sonia as a dog boarder.”
“Shelby loved her stay with Kira. Kira did a great job watching Shelby and kept me informed. Also sent a number of pictures to show Shelby was doing fine. On one of their walks Shelby even got a chance to meet an Elk, which was awesome. Will certainly contact Kira in the future when Shelby we will be going out of town once again.”
About: I've taken care of pets ever since I was a kid. When I was in high school, my family hosted dogs of all sizes, including one of my favorites, a Burnese Mountain Dog named Ruby. Lately I've had the chance to watch my brother's two dogs (as seen in my bio pics) when he travels. I work a semi-active full time job over the week, with plenty of energy to spare when I'm not working. I am fully available over the weekends from Friday evening straight through to Sunday! I also am free on weekdays for walks or drop-ins as long as it's before 7:30 am or after 5 pm. Your dog will stay in a cozy, smoke-free condo where they are welcome on the furniture and bed. While I don't have a yard, I love taking long, frequent walks around the neighborhood. For their comfort and safety, I host one family at a time and ask that owners provide the dog's preferred bed or crate if possible
“I am so glad I found Lori to watch my 2 goldendoodles. It was our 1st time leaving them . I was a bit nervous but she made me feel really comfortable and updated me of how they were doing. 100% recommend! Thanks Lori!”
“Jackie is beyond amazing. My very anxious fur baby has become so much more comfortable (and happy!) with overnight stays thanks to the patience Jackie and her family have taken to make her feel at home. There’s no one else I trust to take such great care of her!”
“Michelle and her family took excellent care of my nervous pup. She went above and beyond making him comfortable, giving him lots of walks, and even gave him a bath when he needed it. Would definitely book again!”
“Jorge and family are wonderful people! Stanley had a great time and was well taken care of. Jorge’s home is perfectly suited for our dog’s needs and we will definitely be back when needed in the future. Thank you!”
“Justine, Brett, and family made our little guy feel right at home. If our dog could speak a human language I am sure he’d say to my family, “Hurry up and go on vacation again!” If you need someone to care for your pup(s) look no further, as they are great carers and communicators.”
“Morgan was amazing with my dog! From the moment I dropped him off, I felt totally at ease. She kept me updated with photos and messages, and it was clear he was having a great time playing, socializing, and getting lots of love. Her home was clean, welcoming, and dog-friendly. I could tell she truly cares about the animals she watches. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“We hired Judith to watch my 12 year old dog in her home. My dog seemed to really enjoy her stay and I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her. Judith provided twice a day updates which I really enjoyed! She verified with me before I left that twice a day updates would be appropriate which I appreciated too. I would definitely recommend Judith! You can really tell she genuinely cares about dogs. :)”
“Excellent and attentive service! We really appreciate the time and care Rosie showed our dog. She made sure to keep us informed and shared pictures of his stay. We will definitely use her services again.”
“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.”
“I want to start by saying I’m no stranger to dog sitters. I’ve been in need for someone to watch my dog many of times and in the past, my sitters have all been pretty good. However, when it comes to Pallvi, I have to say she was absolutely exceptional!! Plenty of checkins thought the sitting, very understanding on pick up and drop off timing, and super competitive pricing! Easily one of the best sitters I’ve gone with this far and I’ll admit I don’t plan on using any other sitter besides her in the future. If I could give more than 5 stars I would!!!! 10/10!!! 😊❤️💯”

Valeriia and Alex did a wonderful job taking care of our dog, Penelope. They made sure to send us updates every day with multiple pictures and it sure looked like Penelope had a ton of fun with them. They even sent Penelope home with a little 3D printed keychain of Penelope for her leash! So cute! Will look to book Valeriia and Alex in the future. Thank you again!!!

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Wayne on Rover is $38.85 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 5,225 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Wayne. 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 Wayne 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 Wayne 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 Wayne 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 Wayne.
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 Wayne 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.
