“Katey was fantastic! Since our move from out of state this past year our dog has had a rough time adjusting and Katey was very understanding, flexible, and so helpful during his stay with her. She kept us posted on how he was doing and we felt so comfy having him stay with her. We definitely recommend and will use her again!”
“Our dog Taco LOVES staying with Tyler and how wife (and their two dogs). They are incredibly accommodating and have gone the extra mile to make our pup feel like he's part of their family. Taco is always so excited to go to their home, and you can tell they've created a bond. I know our dog is being cared for AND that he's having a blast. We're so grateful for Tyler and his family! 100% recommend”
“Melissa is amazing! She kept me updated daily and even sent pictures!! I felt at ease knowing my pup was been very well taken care of. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Roberto and his family welcomed my dog to his family who are all dog lovers. He was well cared for and enjoyed his time with them. Would confidently recommend Roberto.”
“During our pup's stay, Bonnie treated him just like one of her own! She sent us so many pictures during his stay and he always looked so happy, loved, and well taken care of. Thank you, Bonnie!”
“Arielle was wonderful with Charlie! She kept me updated, took great care of him, and made sure he felt comfortable. I really appreciate her kindness and patience. Highly recommend!”
“Leslie did a wonderful job caring for Cubby! I was really nervous about leaving him while I traveled, especially since we’d never been apart for this long. Her frequent updates and photos gave me so much peace of mind. Cubby looked happy, relaxed, and comfortable, and it seemed like he was having his own little vacation! I’m so grateful for the care and attention she gave him. I highly recommend Leslie to anyone looking for a caring, reliable dog sitter. Thank you, Leslie, for making this such a positive experience for both Cubby and me!”
“Seriously the best sitter for our cat, Toast! Great communicator, super flexible with drop off and pick up, and just a great person to work with. We received tons of pictures while we were on vacation, and it seemed like Toast was having his own great vacation in Christian’s apartment. Christian also went above and beyond by packing up Toast in his carrier on his own (Toast is quite a fighter when it comes to his carrier), and that was greatly appreciated. Will keep booking with him every time we go away!”
“Michelle and Erika were great! They provided plenty of updates, photos and even videos during my dogs stay. They were friendly and reassuring and I will definitely use them again for future stays.”
“Ingrida was delightful to work with. Our dog was well cared for and loved while we were away on vacation. We'll use her services again in the future for sure. A+++”
“Sharahi took excellent care of our Tess when we were away for a long weekend. She was friendly, easy to communicate with, and sent frequent updates while we were away. We would absolutely ask Sharahi to watch Tess again!”
“Steph was awesome! This was my first experience with Rover and I have a Boykin Spaniel, which is a 16 month old 40lb high energy hunting machine. She excepted the challenge and treated Kola like he was her own. Very pleased with the whole experience and Steph. I took a fly-in fishing to the northern woods of Canada and due to fires and bad weather in the area had to extend my stay for an additional two days up there because the float plane couldn't come get us. Steph rearranged her schedule to accommodate me. I didn't expect her to do that but greatly appreciate her for doing so. I highly recommend Steph, will use her again in the future (that is if she'll let me LOL).”
“Brian and his fiancé cared for my dogs during a last minute weekend trip and I greatly appreciated the willingness to take my two dogs and look after them. They were wonderful with my dogs! Thank you”
“Danielle was just AWESOME! Our pup was so well taken care of and had a blast with the other pups too! Danielle gave us great updates and pictures each day that we were away. We have had a couple of sitters on Rover and Danielle is by far the best! We will definitely be booking with her from now on!*”
“Mary and crew were very accommodating to handle Remington! Easy to set up, sent pics and updates timely, and were flexible as our flight was delayed. Will be sending Rem there again for sure!”
“You will not find a better dog sitter. I feel like we won the lottery with Terri. I wasn’t sure if Murphy would even want to come back to us. The best updates with pictures throughout the day, fantastic long walks and a special toy to take home. Murphy was with her for and extended time and we trusted her the entire time.”

This is now our 4th time leaving our dog in Robynn's care. She takes excellent care of him and I never worry while he's with her. I appreciate the updates and videos Robynn shares daily and I can see that our dog is comfortable and enjoys the environment. Also, he is on several medications and I really appreciate Robynn's great care with administering his meds.
Sheila truly loves the dogs she watches! While she was watching my German shepherd someone was shooting off fireworks nearby. She let him lay on her so he could stay clam, he is over 100lbs! Will definitely book with her again, I could see through the pictures she sent that he had a blast and was very comfortable with her!

The average cost of Pet Boarding in West Chicago is $40 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $50 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 5,506 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in West Chicago. About 90% of West Chicago 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.
