“Katie was so amazing with my dogs! I have a 3 year old rescue who can be overly sensitive at times as well as a 5 month old Belgian Malinois puppy who is the complete opposite. This was my first time using Rover, and also having such a great job, sending updated pictures of them, and making sure I was informed and comfortable the entire time. My pups had such a blast!!! We will DEFINITELY use her again!”
“Kevin was absolutely wonderful with my sweet Terry. From the very first day, he kept in constant communication, sharing updates that truly put my heart at ease. It was clear that Terry was not just cared for, but genuinely loved and treated like family during the 9 days she stayed with him. I’m so grateful to have found Kevin through Rover, and I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to trust him with Terry again. Highly, highly recommended!”
“Our lab, Yeller, has stayed with Steve and Tilaine twice during our summer vacation and he has a wonderful time in their home. They are loving and responsible and treat him like family. He loves playing in their fenced yard with the kids, laying in the sun on their deck, and all the attention he gets throughout his stay. When we dropped Yeller off for his second stay with them, about a year after the first one, he enthusiastically bolted from the car right up to Steve and immediately made himself at home again. They have also been flexible with our return time as our flight was delayed and accommodated an extension of the stay on short notice. Highly recommend this family for your dog sitting needs!”
“We absolutely loved having our Weimaraner, Hollis stay with Jacquelyn and her family! We felt so comfortable leaving her and Hollis enjoyed her time with them as well! There was never a doubt that she was safe and in excellent hands with them. We will definitely be rebooking with Jacquelyn every time we need to leave our Hollis.”
“This was my first time using Rover and I was pleased with Jessica’s quick response time and enthusiasm to meet and care for Blanca. The process was easy and drop off went smoothly. Jessica’s dog was in a kennel when we arrived to make drop off less stressful for both dogs. The pups were introduced after we left to get their sniffing done on neutral territory (on a walk out front). We received photos and updates during our whole time away and knew Blanca was happy and safe. We would be happy to use Jessica again in the future!”
“Bentley stayed with Samantha and her family for the first time last weekend and he had a blast. Samantha was great to work with, provided great pictures and updates while Bentley was with her. Will be using her again and highly recommend! Thanks Samantha!!”
“Cory has been a fantastic companion dog sitter for us time and time again! He does well with Skip's anxiety and give him great attention and exercise to keep him comfortable when we travel!!”
“Amy and Casey took very attentive care of our mini Aussie, Lily, while we were gone for 5 nights. I am an anxious dog parent and Lily was a bit anxious, too, for the first couple days, but Amy sent me daily updates and pictures and was genuinely concerned/caring for Lily's welfare. Lily had a fun time with their family and their dog Duke (after she warmed up to all of them.) We highly recommend Amy and Casey and their family and will be calling them again when we need lodging for Lily!”
“They took extra special care of Pause and made sure he felt at home. They even sent him home with an extra doggie bag of treats!! He is tired out from all the fun and will be staying over again in the future!”
“Ivana treated Max like he was her family. He was happy feeling part of the team with her dogs. He was pampered and loved. I will definitely use Ivana again.. so satisfied with her care for Max.🥰”
“Sadie loved her stay, with Kim and her family! Kim does a great job of updating you daily, and also sends pics daily, as well! They took great care of our fur baby, and would highly recommend her to anyone in need of a dog sitter! 🙂”
“Elizabeth is wonderful. This was Mable’s first overnight away from family since we adopted her and I was a nervous dog mama but Elizabeth eased my nerves by sending me updates with pics and videos of Mable during her stay. She had a great time playing with new friends and was a tired, happy pup when she came home! We will definitely be using her again!”
“We hit the lottery finding this family!!! Alicia, Dan, and their daughter took absolutely incredible care of my dog, Coco. From the moment we connected, they made me feel completely comfortable leaving her in their care. They treated Coco like she was part of their family! Every day Alicia sent updates and photos, which meant so much to me and gave me total peace of mind while I was away. It was clear from the pictures and messages that Coco was happy, loved, and getting tons of attention 😊 I could not have had a better experience!!! I will absolutely be booking with them (and only them!) again! ❤️🐾”
“Lucia took great loving care of Stella, sent pictures and videos and gave daily updates. Stella is terminally ill and Lucia made us feel at peace leaving her while we attended a family emergency. I highly recommend her.”
“This was my first time leaving my senior rescue pups with a Rover sitter. Alexandra was patient with my dogs and the time it took them to settle in, get comfortable and bark less. Appreciated her prompt responses and communication. Her setup was great for my dogs and she has a giant fenced in backyard!”
“Roxy was amazing watching Jack, they treated him like one of their own dogs. We will absolutely be coming back! She sent pictures and updates which helped make his first stay easier on me.”
“Shaelea was warm and welcoming to my doggo. I was anxious leaving him at a new person's home, but I had nothing to worry about! He had a great time and came home happy! Shaelea was great with communication and flexible with pickup and drop-off. I would recommend her and would happily board with her again.”

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Elkhart on Rover is $32.1 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 Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 417 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Elkhart. About 88% of Elkhart sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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 IA 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.
