“Beatrice did an amazing job caring for our 9 year old pit mix dog. She took pictures, updated us and was always quick to respond. We felt very comfortable leaving our dog with her while we went away for a weekend. We would use Beatrice again in the future!”
“Kimberly was WONDERFUL! She was so sweet to our dogs, sent us communication throughout the stay and was just a very kind person. Max and Muffin had a wonderful time and we will definitely be using her services again. Just a note, our dog Muffin is 17, blind and going deaf and she took wonderful care of her. Her family also loved on our dogs which was so comforting to know as well. Thank you so much!!!”
“Felicia did a great job with Wrigley! She kept me informed and sent pictures throughout the week. Would highly recommend Felicia and will definitely be contacting her again.”
“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.”
“Erin was fantastic with my dog, Max, this weekend! She provided daily updates, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that Max was happy, comfortable, and well cared for throughout his stay. Erin was reliable, communicative, and treated Max like her own. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog sitter, and I would definitely book with her again.”
“Balbina took my gentle giant over an extended period of time and took him in as if he was her own. Sent daily updates of all activities and even did a stellar job with his medication. 10/10 I would rebook. And I’m sure my dog got all of the attention he could have ever wanted. Thank you!”
“Due to a circumstance beyond our control, we needed to board our pup for ten days. After reading her reviews I reached out to JoElle and was so glad I did. Quick responses and a safe place for my pup is the reason we will reach out again! Thank you Jo’Elle”
“Elizabeth was an amazing find on Rover! Starting from the meet and greet, she was a pleasure to work with and we couldn’t be more pleased with how well she took care of our baby girl Sophie! From updates including pictures to flexibility when we made it home early from a road trip, she made the experience so easy! I would definitely use Elizabeth again ?”
“Morgan always takes such good care of Navy! She always provides lots of pictures and timely updates that make us feel comfortable leaving her with Morgan and Ross anytime! I know Navy always has such a good time at their house, she doesn’t want to come home! 😉”
“Fantastic family watched our dog. So kind and attentive. Our dog was in good hands. He loved being chased around the yard by their son. They tired each other out. Would definitely recommend.”
“I highly recommend Justine and Brett to care for your dogs. They have a beautiful family of 4 children who showered my two dogs (a Boxer and a mix breed) with love and affection. They came home so tired and content. This was the first time they were away from home so I was a little afraid of how they would act. I was told they behaved and I hope that was true. I would not hesitate for a minute to use Justine and Brett again.”
“We boarded our 2 little guys with Rosarin for several nights and could tell they were very well cared for. We got updates via the app on their days felt relieved they were in excellent care. Would highly recommend!”
“Peggy was wonderful to our little Oscar. She messaged multiple times a day as requested and sent pictures of the little guy. She also noticed him biting his paws due to allergies and alerted me right away. I was in an area with bad service and did not get the message right away so she went ahead and reached out to my vet and scheduled a time to go in because he had chewed his paw to the point where he was bleeding. By the time I found out she was already on top of it. She took him and brought him home with a cone and gave him medication as prescribed. She even followed up asking about him days later once we picked him up. You can just tell that Peggy is an animal lover. I will absolutely be booking Peggy again, i love the fact that she only takes one dog in at a time because you know the full attention is going to your animal. Thank you Peggy!”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Yorkville is $50
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! :)
I couldn’t have asked for a better petsitter! Daniele was so loving and caring when my dog wasn't eating. She tried different ways to feed him and gave him things that he would eat like pumpkin ice cubes 😀 She sent daily pictures and videos of my dog playing and resting with her dogs. She kept me updated and I felt Bear was in really good hands and didn't have to worry. I highly recommend her!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Yorkville on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 996 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 rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
95% of Yorkville sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Yorkville landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Yorkville 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 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 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.
