This is the second time we have entrusted Peaches to the care of this wonderful family, and we are just as pleased as the first time—Peaches clearly is as well. We are truly grateful to have found them. Their warmth and attentiveness toward Peaches is remarkable. They are the ideal caregivers anyone could find!!

Kim is always great with our little dog Winston. She provided walks, a large yard for him to run around in, and lots of pictures and updates. Winston loves being spoiled there.

Dee was amazing! She honestly loves dogs and treated ours as her own while we were away. She sent a steady stream of updates and pictures to keep us in the loop and our dogs and our happiness was her first priority. 11/10, she's an angel and I'd happily have our dog sit with her again.

I couldn’t be happier, Veronique was a great sitter. My dogs seems very happy and she took very good care of them. She gave them complementally bath before I picked them up. She sent me photos and videos every day to let me know how they were doing and how they interacted with her dogs and cat. Her house, back porch and backyard are really clean, well taken care of and super nice environment for dogs to run free.

I can’t say enough good things about Jennifer! She took wonderful care of my dog, treating them like family. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. My pup came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. It’s hard to find someone you can truly trust with your fur baby, but Jennifer went above and beyond. I will definitely be booking again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!

Sunshine and her loving family were3 the most amazing host for our young energetic dog, Zuka. She is a big dog and a lot to handle at age 1+. Sunshine is a pro and Zuka loved her time with her. We picked her up a week after dropping her off and she was happy, healthy and maybe it is my imagination... but she also seemed better on her lead! WOW! Above and beyond Sunshine!! Thank You! Thank You! We will always use you for overnights when we travel. D&C

This was our first time leaving our two dogs with Jacob and Murphy and we couldn’t be happier! Jacob’s communication is always super fast and the photos he sent daily are hilarious. They even got to attend a dog birthday party while they were there, so they were able to make lots of new people friends and dog friends that afternoon. It gave us great peace of mind to know they were happy and safe and living their best lives while we were on vacation. A++ Thank you Jacob!!

We wanted to express our sincere appreciation for your exceptional care of my anxious dog while we were on vacation. It was a relief knowing you kept him comfortable and safe, especially with his anxiety. We also really appreciated you keeping him separate from your cat due to my daughter's allergies – it showed a real dedication to his well-being and consideration for my family. The updates and photos you sent were so reassuring. Thanks again for going above and beyond! Will definitely take Cody back on our next vacation😊

Our Charlie seemed happy and content with his stay at Kim’s. His tail was wagging when I picked him up. Kim kept us informed about his stay & sent pictures. We would definitely refer her to anyone who needs her services. And we will definitely have her sit Charlie many more times. So thank you Kim.

About: Hello pet parents! Are you looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter? Look no further! My name is Isabelle and I am passionate about providing exceptional care for your furry friends. Whether you need occasional daytime sitting or overnight stays, I am here to ensure your dog is happy, healthy, and loved while you’re away. I’m a SAHM with 2 fur kiddos of my own, so my house is pretty much dog proof. My toddler and I walk our pups twice a day, and when our senior dogs knee starts bothering him we have a doggie backpack we use to ensure he can feel included in the walks. I have a fully fenced back yard for potty breaks. I live within a 15 minute walking distance to a park and can provide your fur kiddo with walks if permitted. I understand the importance of trusting someone with your kiddo and am committed to providing a safe and nurturing environment.

This was a great fit for our pup. He is an older dog, so not as active. Still loves walks, but very big on rest, relaxing and tons of cuddles. Chisato was great at sending updates, pictures, videos - I could tell he was very well cared for. Will definitely be a repeat customer, assuming schedules on both sides allow for it!

Megan took wonderful care of my 8‑month‑old golden retriever during his very first 5‑day boarding stay. She kept me updated every day with pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. He was clearly happy, safe, and well cared for. I’m very happy with her service and will definitely recommend her and book with her again.

Jennifer was absolutely wonderful with our dog during a two‑day stay while we were busy with wedding events and travel. She was super communicative the entire time and sent us adorable, thoughtful photo updates that kept us completely at ease. She also matched our dog’s specific activity needs and preferences perfectly. Jennifer and her husband took her on walks, played with her, and made sure she was fed in a safe, comfortable spot. Her friendly pup Kaya was the perfect companion, and our dog clearly felt right at home. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. We highly recommend Jennifer for anyone looking for reliable, caring support.

Nice to have people like Nicholaus, Kai was nice with him, calm and loved. I was worried because it was a lot of time out of the city but I saw he was good from the first day. If you need someone to take care of your dog he is your best option.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Zion

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Zion on Rover is $49.03 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 2,087 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Zion. 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.

92% of Zion 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 Zion 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 Zion 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 Zion.

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 Zion 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.
