“Just had our precious dog in boarding at Lynana and you can trust that she does her best taking care of your dog. Our dog had an unfortunate accident recently and needed the extra care and attention while recovering.”
“Amanda was great. She kept me updated on how my pups were doing and took great care of them. One of my dogs has a lot of anxiety, and she was able to work with him and accommodate his needs. I would definitely recommend her services.”
“My dog, Chico, absolutely loved Shelley!! She did an amazing job communicating and was very easy to work with! I received multiple pictures of Chico from playing in her yard to cuddling with her on the couch. Im so happy I’ve found someone I can completely trust! I would highly recommend Shelley to anyone I know!”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Kelsey! She took amazing care of our dog and went above and beyond to keep us updated with frequent photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dog was happy, comfortable, and well-loved the entire time. One of the sweetest touches was the personalized “thanks for visiting” card she made, complete with photos of our dog—it was such a thoughtful and memorable gesture. We truly appreciate the care and attention she put into everything. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and attentive dog sitter!”
“Jordan and Collin are super great. Asher and Beethoven were well cared for and we have used them before and will continue to leave the boys with them. You couldn’t ask for nicer people they love animals. Thank you for being the best!❤️”
“Very pleased with Raechel. She and the rest of her family was very friendly. Zoe seemed to be very content being at her house. I would highly recommend Raechel for dog sitting.”
“10/10 recommend! She was very friendly. My dogs seemed to be very well taken care of. She sent pics and gave me updates. I will definitely be using her for all my future bookings. Thank you so much for caring after my babies!”
“I was thoughly impressed with the care and love that Heather gave my baby girl. This was our 1st time ever leaving her and even though it was tearing us up inside, we had comfort knowing that we got multiple daily pics of her having fun with the other dogs and cuddling with Heather and her family as well. If we have to use this service again, I will definitely be going back to Heather.”
About: Dogs have always been part of my life, and I’ve been caring for them since I was young. I’m trustworthy and focused on keeping your pet comfortable and safe. I am unemployed so I'm free all weekdays. I do go out on weekends though, but can still care for your pet when needed. I have 2 dogs and 1 cat. They are very playful and good with other animals. I also have a house with a fenced in yard.
“This is the 3rd time Marshall has stayed with Debbie. She always does a great job and sends lots of pics throughout the booking. I’m pretty sure she spoils my dog more than I do so he always gets a little vacation too! Couldn’t recommend her enough.”
“Anjelica did great with my shy and nervous Sheba. By pick Sheba was seeking attention and pets from her and her husband, which to me means she felt totally comfortable in the facility. The kennels were comfy enough for Sheba to want to go in there and sleep every night. Plus the indoor play area was great. Definitely will rebook when we have to travel again.”
About: I spent a year working at a pet boarding facility called “The Farm At Natchez Trace” in Fairview Tn. I moved out to Evansville for college and I started working at the Vanderburgh Humane Society. I am currently unemployed so I can focus more on college which leaves my schedule open! I also have experience with dog training! I’m currently unemployed and in online college so my schedule is very flexible! I am looking to pet sit/ dog walk/ take care of cats as much as possible! Currently I’m only able to pet sit in a clients home but I am willing to learn how to take care of pets exactly how their owners want and I’m very respectful of other people’s belongings!
“Michelle is amazing, not only a great person and loves dogs, very down to earth, she is very responsive, gives great updates with pictures so you can see how your babies are doing. She has the sweetest little Yorkie for a playmate. She was willing to keep your exercise and feeding routine going to the best of her ability. We absolutely loved her and will be using her services again.”
“Haley was awesome. She was incredibly friendly and had good question about my puppy's care during drop off. She kept me informed on how he was doing and took the cutest pictures. She was even nice enough to provide the name of a reputable vet since we just moved into town. I highly recommend her!”
“Katie and her husband were so good with our baby! Through the pictures she sent us he looked like he was living his best life! He got all his snuggles and they catered to him like the prince he is! So thankful for Katie and her husband! We will book again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Evansville
Lynana took wonderful care of our Maltipoo puppy Scooter while we were gone for the weekend. She offered a meet and greet before our trip to answer questions and see how Scooter did with her own pets. We had never left him before and she sent daily pictures and messages to ease this anxious dog mom’s heart while we were away. Her sweet kiddos gave him lots of love too! We will definitely use her again when we need a dog sitter!
Rachael boarded our two dogs (1 large and 1 small) while we were on vacation overseas for 2 weeks. She was fantastic! She treated our dogs like family, provided regular updates, and went above and beyond to make sure our pups were comfortable and happy. You can tell how much she loves dogs and I love that her kids played and bonded with our dogs as well! We came back to happy, healthy dogs, and we are so grateful for the excellent care. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to other pet parents.
Shelley was amazing! She watched our 2 dogs for 5 nights/6 days. Our 15 1/2 year old lab came with special needs which required daily bandages changes for a large ruptured tumor in her leg. Our dogs are bonded and have never been boarded. Our 6 1/2 year old pittie/heeler mix is very cautious with new people. Both our dogs loved Shelley immediately! She never flinched about the ruptured tumor, which is not for the faint of heart. She sent us pictures and updates daily, which was very appreciated. I would absolutely recommend Shelley and wouldn't hesitate to book with her again. Archie and Sophie says Shelley is a 10 out of 10.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Evansville on Rover is $29.96 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 48 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Evansville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter 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.
Sitters may also include daily walks in the neighborhood during your dog's boarding stay. You can also request photo and message updates throughout so you can see which local 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 Evansville 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 Evansville.
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 Evansville 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.
