“Eloise is the ONE. Our two boys are safe, loved, and have a blast with her! This is our second time using her and definitely not our last!! We already queued her up for July! Thanks Eloise for easing our worries when we dip out for a trip!!”
“Danielle is our new favorite rover sitter. From the moment we met her during our meet and greet it was evident she knows how to take care of dogs and loves them. She kept us updated on how our puppers were doing and she sent us several picture. She even sent us awesome AI pictures of our dogs ? I can’t recommend Danielle enough and will not hesitate using her next time we need a sitter.”
“I’ve used so many Rovers and she is absolutely fantastic. Takes care of my pup as if she were my own, and has a way better back yard for them to run around in. Great about photo and video updates, too. Highly recommend.”
“Noel jumped in when I needed a sitter last minute. She took excellent care of Clyde and will continue to use her. She kept me updated and I feel so at peace knowing that she and her family are there for my big guy while my husband heals from his back surgery.”
“Michelle and Christy are the best! They are attentive, loving, and show so much care to our dog. We feel comfortable knowing that he is in a safe space and are so thankful for the service they provide!”
“Tami was friendly and professional. We felt very comfortable after meeting with her, her family and her dogs. She was very sweet to our golden retriever and attentive. She maintained regular connections with little messages and photos each day. Would love to use her again for a future stay.”
“Wow!!! Where do I start. Sheree was amazing with my dog whom I feel is so hyper. I never had to worry about what he was doing or how the day and night was going because Sheree kept me updated everyday that I was on vacation. She sent photos and reassurances and it eased the pain of leaving my dog for so many days. She definitely has a caring spirit about where you just know your dog is in good hands. I will absolutely be booking with her again for the overnight stay. From my family and Yoshi we truly thank Sheree.”
“Maria did an outstanding job caring for Spinx during his boarding from October 24–26. She sent me photos while he was with her, which put me at ease, and it was clear how much she cares about the pets in her care. As a retired educator, I especially appreciate someone dependable, caring, and thoughtful. I couldn’t be more pleased with Maria’s care, and I will definitely book with her again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for dependable boarding for their dog.”
“Kimberly and Matthew were great with our dogs! We enjoyed the consistent updates and pictures. One of our dogs is a nervous guy and he warmed up quickly to both. Highly recommend!”
About: Experienced pet sitter. I treat all as my own! I have 4 dogs of my own, 2 small dogs (ages 1 and 11) and 2 male German Shepard (2 yr and 5 yr). I care for and trained all my dogs. Routine is key. I have attended local training centers/classes for support. I am a certified foster for Humane Indiana, Munster, IN. I have experience with senior dogs as I have lost 2 senior dogs in the past, age 13 and 14. I will accommodate your pet as needed inside and outside of my home. I have 1 acre of land to exercise, fenced in area, inground pool with splash pad area (if they like to swim, otherwise, access is fenced off). I am willing to FaceTime/communicate with pet parent as needed! (I know how hard it is to be away from our pets). I am an ex-School Counselor who left the field of Education after 16 years. I assist husband with our business but my days are flexible to accommodate boarding bookings. Pets stay indoors. I have a fenced in area with a doggie door for in-out access to grassy area. I also have a crate if needed. Willing to feed your pup as instructed, take walks, and supervise always! If needed or desired, I have the ability to separate my dogs from yours. All my dogs are up to date on vaccinations, heart guard and are friendly. I would recommend a visit to my home with pet prior to boarding to allow your dog to get to know me, put your mind at ease, and ensure it’s a great fit for them!
“Bernice was an angel. Before I booked I told her that I was driving to take my daughter back to school. Then the storm and power outage came. She didn’t cancel despite what she was dealing with. That was so nice of her to think of me during that time cause I honestly didn’t have a back-up. She sent plenty of pictures and she kept me posted on how he was doing. I can tell from the photos that he was enjoying himself. I will definitely book her again.”

“Mariah is a wonderful sitter, she took great care of my baby. She took him on walks, played with him and had plenty of treats. I appreciated her sending pictures and videos while I was away to ease my mind. I will definitely use her again and would recommend her.”
“OUTSTANDING! Tootie had a wonderful time! Kathy sent pictures with funny comments. That should me Tootie was having a great time. That's important to me.

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 Yeager 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 Yeager 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 Yeager.
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 Yeager. On Rover:
- 89% 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 Yeager 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.
