“Lynana was fantastic! I felt very comfortable leaving our dog with this family. Our dog, who often is very nervous, acted right at home immediately. The family was all kind and Lynana provided updates daily. I would highly recommend Lynana and her family.”
“Amber is always so good with our dogs! She is extremely good with our senior dog, making sure she gets her pills and being very gentle with her. We have used Amber at least 3 times now and she is the best!”
“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.”
“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!”
“Raechel was amazing with my Stella girl! She seemed so happy and at home with her while we were in Florida! I didn’t need to worry about her at all because I knew She was well taken care of! Raechel sent me pics and kept me updated with how Stella was doing. We will definitely use her again! I highly recommend her!”
“Our 9 year old collie stayed with Jordan and her family while we were on an extended vacation. Since our dog is getting older, I was concerned about leaving her in a noisy kennel for that long. Boy, did I make the right decision! Jordan and her family welcomed Maisie and treated her like one of their own! We received daily pictures and updates. She has a lovely home with a fenced backyard and we couldn’t have had a better experience! I highly recommend Jordan and will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Heather was great with Louie! She was easy to get ahold of and flexible for picking up and dropping off. She sent pictures every day and I had peace of mind knowing Louie was safe and happy!”
“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!”
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.
“Debbie and her furry family was wonderful with Max. Lucy, Zoie, and Harley were great companions during his visit. Debbie provided plenty of updates with pictures and a video of Max playing and simply chillin in the house. Debbie truly loves animals.”
“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.”
“Joshua is amazing!!! Our grouchy chihuahua mix, Arlo, does not do well being boarded. Joshua agreed to give Arlo a chance. We got a lot of updates and pictures. Arlo did amazing for his first time there. We will definitely be booking again! Thank you, Joshua!!”
“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’ve been professionally pet sitting for 5 years, but grew up around dogs and cats my whole life. I’ve watched dogs of all breeds and ages and love being around animals :) I have one cat of my own named Hank 🫶🏻 I work in a law office Monday through Friday from 7:30 am to 4:30 p.m. I am single and don’t have any kids so I’m able to put all my focus on your animals :) I do not care for pets in my own home due to living in an apartment and I feel that it’s better for the animals to keep them in their own home.
About: I have taken care of pets since I was young, and always had pets in my home! I am a huge huge animal lover! We currently have 3 dogs, 3 cats, 2 bearded dragons, chickens, ducks and rabbits. We love all animals! I have been a Stay at Home Mom since my girls were born. Now that they are older, I’m looking for new things to do that I enjoy, and can still be around for my family when they need me. I have a fenced in yard that the dogs run and play in, a detached garage with an attachment. Inside the attachment there is a couch, TV, AC, and heat, with plenty of room to run around and play! It makes a nice little hang out spot. We come out here to play and run around at times. There is also a security camera in the attachment as well. Dog must be potty trained, and good with other dogs and cats. Please be honest, so it won’t cause conflict while taking care of your baby and others. If we take care of larger dogs, they will stay in the attachment and not in the house.
About: I’ve fostered co-workers, family members, and friends pets all the time!! I genuinely love being around other animals and Making sure I can help them feel the most comfortable and energized while under my watch 🙂💛 I will always have an OPEN schedule unless I am booked with another client. I will be able to take care of any fury babies anytime 🙂 I provide a safe, loving, and supervised environment for every pet in my care. Front and backyard for outdoor play! I always follow your pet’s routine, feeding schedule, and any special instructions. If needed, I can crate your dog and ensure they have a comfortable, stress-free space to relax and feel at home.

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.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Evansville on Rover is $28.89 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 46 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.
