“This was our first time using Jess and we are very happy. My pups were cared for like queens. Loved the pictures and videos she sent. Great peace of mind while gone on vacation. Presuming she will have them, they will be back!!! ”
“My dogs love staying at Miss Danielle's! She gives them lots of snuggles and playtime in the backyard. They always come home exhausted for about the next 24 hours after I bring them home! I'm glad we have someone we trust with our fur babys when we're out of town.”
“Maria was absolutely amazing! From the moment we dropped our dog off, we knew he was in great hands. She took him on long, enjoyable walks and kept us updated with pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. Maria was incredibly responsive and clearly treated our dog with so much love and care. He came home happy, well-exercised, and clearly adored his time with her. We are so grateful and would absolutely trust her again in the future!”
“Lucy stayed with Amanda & Anton while we went on a vacation for a week. Lucy seemed very happy and was well cared for. It was so nice to receive photos and updates. Thank you!”

About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I give to every pet. I understand that every dog has a different personality, routine, and set of needs, and I take the time to get to know them and make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. There is a stay at home parent who can provide daily care for your pet. And a family who will be there to provide plenty of attention and love. We have a large yard with plenty of trees and a spacious home for your pet to explore. Your preference of crate or bed or couch is ok with us.
“Vanessa is great! We can tell Molly had a great time in her care!! Knowing Molly was safe, had a proper care, and enjoyed companion in Vanessa’s house while we’re on a trip give us peace of mind. We will definitely book her boarding again!!”
“Vishvesh and Julia provided exceptional care for my girls, Maple and Maisy! From the moment I dropped them off, I felt completely at ease. They kept me updated throughout their stay with pictures and messages, which made being away from my girls so much less stressful. When Maple and Maisy came home, they were calm, happy, and clearly very well loved. They came back ready to give us all of the love and joy they had received from Vishvesh and Julia. 🐾❤️ They even went the extra mile and brought my girls home, which meant so much to me. I am beyond grateful for the care, attention, and love they gave my girls. You can tell when someone genuinely loves animals, and Maple and Maisy definitely found that with Vishvesh and Julia. Five stars isn't even enough! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We highly recommend them and, without a doubt, they are our dog sitters for life! Thank you so much, Vishvesh and Julia, for taking such wonderful care of our girls. We are forever grateful! ❤️🐶🐶”
“Shauna and Peter took such wonderful care of our dog Gracie. Not only did they follow our instructions for her basic care, such as food, medications, daily walks and play, but the whole family gave her so much love and attention. She is a very affectionate dog and they treated her as if she was their own. We were on a long trip overseas and Shauna’s daily communication and photos gave us such a peace of mind that our sweet pup was doing just fine. We feel so blessed to have found them and can not thank them enough for the perfect care they gave Gracie! We highly recommend Shauna and Peter to care for your dog. They are the best!”
“Pennie was amazing, she sent me updates, let me know all I needed to know about my pet. My dog seemed so happy. She kept me posted on how he was with other dogs, what he was up to during the day and anything else I needed to know. I would definitely recommend her and will be bringing my doggie back!”
“I highly recommend Peggy to anyone who wants someone they can trust with their pet! Prior to my dog’s stay with her, we met with her so she could ask some detailed questions about my dogs preferences and her home is “dog proof” as she says so my dog was able to explore a bit before she stayed with Peggy! Overall, Peggy was very communicative and very sweet with my dog and I felt like I was leaving my dog with a trusted friend!”
“Great communication from Ashley! I received pictures and videos and continual love from afar about my sweet boy. Huge yard and a great home for any doggie. Excited to have Bowie hosted there again, highly recommended! Great experience!”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Willow Creek
Our beloved family dog had emergency surgery and a devastating cancer diagnosis 36 hours before my daughter and I were scheduled to leave the country for her high school senior choir trip, something that had been a long time planning. We do not have family equipped to handle this, and in desperation I was trying all the avenues to find someone to help. I came across Mera’s profile and messaged her the situation. She replied immediately and graciously accepted our dear Millie into her care so that we could proceed on the trip as planned. She gave Mille a complex schedule of medications and care, and sent pictures throughout every day to show us how well she was doing. From the moment I first started messaging with Mera and certainly once I stepped into her house, I could see how gentle and caring she was, and it gave me peace of mind during an excruciatingly painful time when we did not want to leave our dog. Knowing that Mille was being loved and cared for allowed us to still appreciate the trip my daughter had been preparing for all year. I can’t thank Mera enough or recommend her highly enough. And her backyard is gorgeous with lots of nature for dogs to sniff around in, which is Millie’s favorite thing in the world. Thank you so much Mera!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Willow Creek home-away-from-home, 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 Willow Creek.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Willow Creek 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 , 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 .
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.
