“Amanda & Anton are both so amazing to work with! They have a lot of great experience with various types of dogs and got my dog assimilated into their clan seamlessly. I was very impressed as my dog is often mopey whenever I leave and has had issues with some dogs and cats in the past. The got him to be part of the family in less than 24 hours and he has a great weekend away! My dog is also special needs and has a lot of food allergies. They did a great job handling all his various medications and feeding routine. Their attention to detail and care for his needs made me feel better to leave him for the weekend and I felt very confident that he was in good hands.”
“My dog absolutely loved her time with Trish. I got many updates and pictures. I knew without a doubt my dog was being loved and taken care of while I was away. She was very flexible and understanding when we had a change of plans that delayed our return home by a few hours as well. I highly recommend her. My dog can’t wait to have a play date with her pups someday soon!”
“Freya was fabulous and open with communication about our pet. They constantly sent us pics and updates on the status of our Waffle. I feel they went the extra mile on caring for our baby. This was my first experience using this app and now I am willing to keep using it! Thank you Freya!!”
“We had an excellent experience with our dog sitter while we were away for six days. She took the time to schedule a meet and greet beforehand to ensure it was a great fit, which immediately gave us confidence in her care. Throughout our vacation, she provided consistent communication with thoughtful updates, photos, and videos, allowing us to truly relax knowing our dogs were well cared for. When one of our dogs experienced a decrease in appetite, she promptly communicated with us and worked through solutions, which we greatly appreciated. Her attentiveness, reliability, and genuine care for our dogs made our trip completely stress-free. We are very thankful to have found such a dedicated and involved sitter and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional pet care.”
“Justine and Brett welcomed our dog into their home and treated her with incredible care and attention. Our dog loves kids and to be in the mix of everything and everyone - this was the happiest and most relaxed she’s ever been going or coming back while we’ve been away. Excellent communication at every step - we could really tell that they love to care for dogs! We hope Munro can stay with them again!”
“Christina’s family is so caring and loving! You can tell how much their kids enjoy hanging out with Milo and accepted him as part of the family. It’s so great to see how sweet their dog Brydie is too! I know he always has a great experience with Christina and her family 💗”
“Debbie and Reggie took very good care of Daisy and Patch. They communicated well with us and sent daily photos. They clearly kept our pups active and attended to. Feed well even our dogs can be finicky eaters. Would definitely use them again.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Yorkville
Miriam "Mimi" & Terrell and Bella were a God send! True Good & Lovely Soles! My only wish is if there was a way to leave more than five-stars, because I definitately would. After a HUGE misunderstanding with an "unconfirmed" sitter, where my babies were left alone for some time, non-communication AND potential mingling with an unknown number of larger breeds dogs (including a St. Bernard), Miriam & Terrell not only alerted me to the grave mix-up, but offered to pick up my babies and bring them to their home (the correct confirmed booking sitters), as I was already away on my trip. After my babies were dropped off at Mimi & Terrell's, they welcomed my babies with open arms and lots of love and hugs! Once they sent initial pics of my babies getting lots of love, hugs and way too many snuggles (LOL!), I KNEW they were in their second home. :) Mimi even crafted a special unique way of capturing all of their activities, which was efficient, as well as quite hilarious. LOVE IT! I received regular updates and the most adorable pics that made my time away stress-free, knowing that my babies were in a place where they were loved as much as if I was with them myself. Mimi & Terrell's home was immaculate, warm and pup-friendly! They had all the comforts of having your pups stay in their new "second-home" while you are away. My babies were well-fed, had plenty of play time, hugs and cuddles but more importantly I knew they felt safe and happy while mommy was away. I cannot recommend these good souls more to care for your babies. You will not only find great sitters, but future family. I know I did! :) Love...LOVE...LOVE THESE FOLKS! :)

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Yorkville is $39 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $31 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.

As of October 2026, there are 1,007 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Yorkville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
96% of sitters in Yorkville 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 Yorkville 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 Yorkville.
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.
You and your Yorkville 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.
