“Danielle is excellent! I’ve used her three times now, and my American bulldog clearly likes her and feels comfortable in her care, which says a lot. She’s reliable, easy to work with, and you can tell she genuinely cares about the dogs. Her business is booming, so expect other dogs to be around during your pup’s stay. Great for social dogs who enjoy company. I’d recommend her.”
“My multipoo stayed with Eric over the weekend. Eric sent a photo daily and was always quick to respond to questions. My dog returned home healthy and happy. I highly recommend Eric for boarding! Jan”
“Linda and George took amazing care of my pup. They sent update photos everyday and even took my pup out and about, which he loved every second of it! I would 1000% recommend them for any type of dog sitting and I know my pup can’t wait for the next trip back!”
“We boarded our 1 year old vizsla with Greg and Sonia. They were patient with him as he adjusted to a new house and kept him busy with trips to the dog park and playing in their fenced in backyard. Their dog, Sam, is a friendly golden retriever who appears to play well with all dogs. They provided daily pictures and updates.”

Communication was great throughout the stay, and it was clear Penelope was treated like part of the family.

About: I am an animal lover, growing up with cats, and having owned 2 dogs for over 13 years! I enjoy all kinds of dogs and cats and would love to be able to help you out. I will care for your animals as if they were my own. Just tell me what the norm is for your fur babies and I'll make sure they are taken care of! I am available most times during the week and all day on weekends for walks. I also offer boarding at my home in a large neighborhood with a 2 mile walking path! My 13-year-old son loves helping me with the animals and would love to join me for walks/visits (but only if you are comfortable with it)! We love taking dogs for long walks and helping keep them occupied with play time. During boarding, your animal would be spoiled and loved! I want you to feel as comfortable as possible when I'm taking care of your pet! I am available mostly in the mornings and late afternoon/evenings during the week (but have some midday flexibility) and all day on weekends! My availability is pretty consistent and I keep my calendar as up to date as possible. I treat customer’s pets as if they were my own. Our pets are often like children except they offer unconditional love and trust to their families. My aim is to help your fur baby feel loved and cared for... just tell me what the norm is for your fur babies and I'll make sure they are taken care of.
“Patricia took great care of Tess for us! She was very communicative and send lots of updates. Tess came home happy and healthy! We would definitely ask Patricia to help us with Tess again”
“John and Kerry were excellent sitters! My dog adjusted to them without any issues. They were very understanding of senior and somewhat quirky dogs. I will definitely use them again and would definitely recommend them!”
“Brian is a great host. He reached out quickly upon my request and the provided information so I was able to book within about 30 minutes. He was proactive and reached out the night before to confirm arrival time and it was very responsive to all my requests and inquiries over text message. He was able to accommodate my daytime doggy daycare request His neighborhood is great and they even have a small dog area that’s fenced in for some off leash time. Basically, the best experience you could ask for when handing off your fur baby.”
“David and Mary were very communicative throughout Bender’s stay. We were gone for a week and Bender had a difficult time adjusting and got sick. They went the extra mile to care for him by changing his diet and providing him medicine. I appreciate their efforts and for keeping me updated throughout! Would definitely recommend them for future stays!”
“Penny was amazing! I left my pup, Ginger, with her for 2 weeks while we were out of country. Penny sent pictures of Ginger and made sure she had plenty of activity. I even noticed that Ginger had lost a few pounds that she needed to lose! I would highly recommend Penny!”
“Mera was a wonderful sitter for our dog Chewie, giving him walks and his special dinners. She and her family took great care of him while we were away for a few days. We hope to rebook with Mera.”
“Our lively viszla pup had a great time with Elise. She was very responsive and caring in the lead up to his stay, and we even had a meet and greet beforehand to ensure we could pass on all instructions… He was well exercised and well loved during the eight days or so that we were gone. We received lots of photos, and he came back with some excellent manners.”

Danielle was amazing taking care of my puppy! She really loves dogs and knows how to care for them and it shows. She was good at following the many instructions for my pup Anya and was good at keeping Anya active outdoors. Even involved her in trick or treating for Halloween, and quality family time at her home while sending me pictures and videos. We definitely recommend Danielle for a stress-free and trusted time sitting your dog!
Our experience with Linda and George has been terrific. They offered to meet us ahead of our trip to make sure that we and our dog Buster were comfortable with them. They were friendly and easy to work with, made Buster very comfortable during his stay and kept up with his walks, even in the rain. We appreciated their text message updates and we would love to have them look after Buster again.
We are so fortunate to have discovered Goka! Our pets immediately fell in love with her and family. She kept our dog and made house calls for our cat. Goka went above and beyond to keep in touch with us via videos, photos and texts on our fur babies. Our pets not only received the best, but Goka is a friend made!
Emily is amazing! This was our first time booking with Emily! I can say her home is set up lovely for her pet and our pet. She sent pictures during Bella’s stay! I love the fact that her baby and our baby were comfortable around each other with the same vibe! I will definitely book with Emily again! Thank you Emily!

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Wildrose is $32 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $56 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.

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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
95% of sitters in Wildrose can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Wildrose 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 Wildrose.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Wildrose. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Wildrose 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
