“When I took our dog out the next morning after picking her up from Jill's, she wanted to get back in the car, so she must have had a good time! Jill loves animals and has a large fenced in yard for the dogs to run around in. Jill also has experience with all kinds of dogs, so was not phased by some behavioral issues our dog has.”

“Michelle’s home is a second home retreat for our three year old lab mix. Miles adores going to Michelle’s and it’s a great reflection of the kind care and warmth that she shows to the pets she cares for. We never hesitate to book Michelle! She has many processes in place to ensure direct communication and a safe and loving environment for the pets that she cares for. I interviewed many Rover sitters for our dog and Michelle was above and beyond the only one I felt comfortable with and she has exceeded our expectations every time. Thank you, Michelle!”

About: I have a wide range of expirence with all types of breeds since I was 10. I work from home so I am around most of the time. I am currently training for a hiking marathon and my dog cannot make all the miles I need in a day. Love active dogs and all their quirks. I am up at 4:30 every morning. Walking my first dog at 5am. I get my teenage son off to school. I work in my home office until 2pm. During this time my dogs have full run of the house and my large fenced in yard. They have full access to toys and water throughout the day. Then time to walk 2 other dogs. After dinner I am walking my senior dog on his personalized walk. He loves to play with other dogs but also loves his evening walk solo. I have a large fenced in back yard. Poop is regularly picked up. I have 2 dogs and they are treated like one of the family. They have their routines and enjoy the many pampering they get. My dogs are allowed anywhere in the home. They have many toys, treats, and snuggles.

“I am so happy I chose Michael to care for my Aussie Layla. She is like my child and I was worried about leaving her but Michael immediately put my mind at ease. He was so warm and welcoming and Layla went right to him. It was apparent how much he loves dogs. His home and fenced yard provided a safe environment with plenty of room to roam. He took Layla on nice walks and stayed in touch with me through texts and pictures. I will definitely continue to use him for any future needs.”

“When you have a Senior dog with medical issues, you just can't take them anywhere. Luckily we found a new local sitter on Rover.com. Jeannie was very welcoming during our meet and greet. I was nervous, because we had a negative experience with our previous sitter. She accepted Lucy Mae and took great care of her. Jeannie was flexible when we extended her stay by one day. We received a daily picture showing a happy pup. Grateful our Beagle did so well❤️ She did so well, she was even asked back!”

Sent me photos, let me know how he was doing and kept in touch with me. Thank you so much again for caring for my little grumpy gills.”

“Jayne was amazing - definitely the best caretaker I have worked with thus far. Gumbo absolutely loved her and it showed through in all the pictures she sent me (major plus as it makes me feel more secure with being away). Jayne really went above and beyond - taking notes when I was going over his daily routine and even helping me carry back all his supplies at the end of the day. We will definitely be using her going forward and would highly recommend her to other users in the midtown east area. Thanks for everything Jayne!!”

“Kyle did a great job watching Bailey. There were times in the past with other sitters where Bailey would come back traumatized and take a few days to get back to normal. After being with Kyle for four days Bailey was fine returning home. I think being the only dog at Kyle’s house is a big plus. We received periodic picture and video updates which help relieve our anxiety during the trip. We have no reservations in asking Kyle to watch Bailey again.”

They really made Hopper part of the family (even though Hopper kept stealing all of their dog’s toys and attention). We were very happy to be able to leave Hopper in a home where he was so well cared for.”

“Kathy took amazing care of Clark for 10 nights while I was on a cruise. This was the first time he had ever stayed with a sitter through Rover and not with a family member so I was very nervous. Kathy sent pictures and updates which helped to calm my nerves. When I picked Clark up he seemed sad to leave! He has such a great time with Kathy, her family and her dog Bella. I would 100% leave Clark in Kathy’s care again. Thank you, Kathy!”

She clearly loves animals and is very thoughtful and intentional with their care. We felt very confident leaving our two goldens with her and they had a great time! She has a huge backyard and a very pet-friendly home. She sent regular photos and videos of their stay. They were treated just like her own dogs. Highly recommend and we’ll definitely be returning in the future!”

Dallas was absolutely incredible with our dog Goose!! He stayed with them for 4 days while we had our wedding and it looked like he had the best time. She was so accommodating and was able to give him his meds every morning and even took care of a scratch on his leg that he came to her with. She sent photo updates every day. Their house is awesome- a renovated barn that sits on a bunch of land for him to explore. He came home so tired and happy. Would 1000% recommend her and her husband to watch your dog, you can tell they really care and treat your animal as their own. Thank you guys!!!

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 900 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Wonder Lake. About 93% of Wonder Lake 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.

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.

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 .

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. 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.
