“Alexis was fantastic. She provided daily photos and updates, kept me informed about how Bella and Coco were doing, and even reached out when Coco wasn’t eating to make sure she got the right care. Highly recommend!”

“We loved boarding our Everitt with Cory. He was very in tune and experienced with dogs and how they act and was understanding of our young dog’s behavior. When we picked her up we could tell she was well cared for and happy with her stay. We would use him again and would recommend him to anybody that is looking for somebody”

“Our 11month old puppy had a great time staying an entire week with Emily. We couldn't have been more pleased with Emily's love for animals and expertise of caring for our dog so we could enjoy our trip out town with no concerns about our dog having a great time while we traveled. Our puppy had never been boarded overnight before, is our only pet. Emily coordinated a fantastic meet-n-greet to assure a great boarding experience. Our dog got a long great, while enjoying playing with Emily's family, personal dogs, cat, and bird, and outside in their fenced back yard. Because it was rainy, our dog got pretty muddy (which I'm sure he loved), Emily gave him a good bath and all cleaned up to give us warm greetings when we picked him up. Emily is very responsive and her communication is great! Emily gave us daily updates along with pictures of our dog, which was very much appreciated. We'll definitely look forward to booking with Emily for future boarding needs.”

“Joscelyn did an amazing job watching my two boxers. They almost didn't want to come home afterwards. We'll definitely be back as long as she'll have them. Her kids played well with the dogs and they had access to her fenced in back yard and inviting dog-friendly home. Thanks for all the great care you gave my dogs while they were with you. They are in great spirits and seem like they just went on a little vacation. Looking forward to future bookings.”

“I definitely recommend Kayla, she took care of my labrador puppy Arya for 4 nights. When I brought Arya she did not walk with her leash because she did not want to and when I went to look for her Kayla had taught her. Kayla take care of her with a lot of love, teach her new things, trained Arya and help her share with other dogs and cats. I am very satisfied and happy to be able to entrust the care of my baby Arya to such a committed person. Arya was really happy and have a great time, Kayla even give her new toys!!”

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Butler

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 111 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Butler. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Butler 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 Butler 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 Butler.

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 Butler. On Rover:

  • 97% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% 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 Butler 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 IN 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.
