“Danielle was great, she was flexible with our drop off and pick up schedule and was very willing to snuggle with our dog, who believes she was born to do nothing else.”
“Selena did an amazing job and made the whole experience feel effortless. My pup had the best time ever and even better was Selena was incredible about updating me with pictures and videos throughout it all. Selena and her pups were great in welcoming my boy into their home, I could tell my dog was bummed when his stay ended. I would definitely rebook and encourage anyone looking for someone they can trust to take of their pets to look no further”
“Felecia was awesome. My pet was sick before I dropped him off and she took really good care of him. By the time I pickes him up he was back to full health. Which means she really made sure he felt better. I will 100% recommend her to anyone.”
About: Hi! I’m Diane, a mature and loving dog mom with 18 years of experience caring for dogs of all ages and energy levels. I treat every dog like my own—providing a safe and happy environment while you’re away. Whether your dog needs daily walks, playtime, cuddles, or administering medication, I’ve got you covered. I'm home all day every day as a dedicated dog mom. No other work or children in the home to distract me from providing your dog with care and attention. I care for one dog at a time in addition to my Bella. Dogs are never left home alone. Our home is a haven for small dogs. Every room has cozy chairs, blankets and pillows along with natural light and fresh air for dogs to enjoy. Dogs are allowed on furniture and beds. I have a large, safe fenced in yard. The fence is solid with absolutely no gaps for little ones to squeeze through.
“Joel was wonderful..she updated me frequently pertaining to status & well being of my dog. My dogs behavior was quite normal for his return home , an extremely happy little one (indicative of great atmosphere)! Will definitely become a regular client.”
“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!!”
“Melvin enjoyed his time with Marisol. She kept me up to date with texts and photos. She also purchased optional food when Melvin wasn’t eating his regular food which had never happened before. I’ll use her services again in the future.”
“We were 100% comfortable leaving Sam, our elderly, special needs Schnoodle with Sylvie. We didn’t worry about her for a minute. It was like going to Summer camp for Sam, with the other dogs and spacious fenced yard. She seemed to feel right at home. Sylvie is a reliable, experienced, caregiver who didn’t have a problem at all accommodating a deaf, half blind old girl on a special diet. Sam looks forward to visiting again.”
“Sadie had such a good time with Justine and Brett!! They took care of her over the weekend of our wedding, and it was so great to know Sadie was so well taken care of during our special day. Thanks so much Justine and Brett!”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have always been comfortable caring for them. For the past 2.5 years, my wife and I have also been dog parents to our corgi, Riley. I’m experienced with daily walks, feeding, playtime, basic routines, and giving dogs plenty of attention and affection. I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pet, and I’ll treat every dog I care for like they’re part of the family. Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine since we have a dog of our own. I also have the flexibility to work from home whenever needed, so I can be around throughout the day for walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, and plenty of attention. We have a dog-friendly home with a fenced-in yard and our friendly corgi, Riley. We’ll follow your dog’s normal routine, feeding schedule, and any special instructions you provide. We want every dog staying with us to feel safe, comfortable, and at home.
“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!!”
“Patricia was very responsive and sent plenty of pictures. She took very good care of our gentle giant, 7yr old golden doodle, and I would definitely seek to use her services again. She is awesome to work with. I would highly recommend.”

Pet 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! :)

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 Meet & Greet .
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. 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.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
