“Gabriel was beyond amazing he provided updates, pictures and videos throughout the stay! His doggies are so sweet and chill and our coco felt very much at home. I can tell by the videos that she was enjoying herself and she’s usually nervous when staying at other peoples houses. They let her sleep in their bed and snuggle and treated her as their own. You can tell they truly love animals we would 100% use them again thank you 🙏❤️”
“Riley (the dog) seemed to be happy in pictures that Bethany took. Bethany was easy to deal with and had good communication. Very satisfied with the overall experience. I would use Bethany again.”
“Brendan was great with our 5 month old Aussie puppy! He sent daily updates and was extremely flexible when our flight got delayed. Our pup was happy to play with his golden retriever and came home very sleepy!”
“Kylie was an amazing sitter. My cats almost didn’t want to leave! She sent pictures with updates which kept my mind at ease. Will definitely be using her again when visiting family :)”
“Great communication!!! Leo had a great time spending the weekend with Seygourney, Eric, and their dog James. I received lots of updates including photos and a video. Would definitely recommend!”
“Christopher took great care of our cat. It was very easy to coordinate the schedule with him. He sent regular updates and shared photos with us. He also administered medicine to our cat in a timely manner. Overall, I felt very comfortable and at ease with my cat being in safe hands while I am away. Will definitely book with him again!”
“Roger and Norbert had such an enjoyable stay with Sam! She took GREAT care of them and sent lots of pictures of the pups in walks, playing, and relaxing which helped me with the natural dog mom anxieties of leaving your pups while on vacation. ? I would absolutely leave my babies with Sam again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible pup sitter in Indy!”
“Amy was excellent. She treats dogs as if they were her own. Very safe and warm environment, and she works from home so your dog is always cared for. We already rebooked with Amy.”
“Bella is a repeat guest with Crystal, mostly because I know she lives as good or better than at home! The whole family loves on her and make sure she is well taken care of. Will definitely continue to book! KC”
“Yelena is awesome! She sends more pictures and videos than any sitter I’ve ever had. It’s so nice to see the dogs happy and playing. I am a repeat customer and will continue to use her when ever we need a sitter.”
“Candie took great care of Maisie - and put our minds at ease through the holiday. Her pup is a charming and gentle guy, and they got along very well. We will be back!”
“Jennifer was very attentive and accommodating to ensure my anxious dog felt comfortable, happy, and loved. I received photos often which showed my girl going for walks, snuggling on the couch, and enjoying the backyard.”
“I had travel plans all squared away and our usual sitter had an emergency and couldnt take care of our dog. Tammy was so fast in responding and took great care of our little one. I will definitly request Tammy's services for my next boarding. She is courteous, responsive and accomidating, and gets a five stars from me.”
“Nancy and her husband took the excellent care of our dog Patty! They sent us daily updates and pictures to bring us additional comfort while we were a country away! Highly recommend Nancy to anyone that loves their dog and wants a good experience for your dog and yourself while taking a vacation!”
“Kristen was great in accommodating our immediate request. She gave us updates/sent pictures. Cody came home happy and obviously excited to see us again. Will definitely rebook with her in the future.”
“This was my first time using Rover for my own dogs, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! I felt completely at ease leaving my pups with Brook. She sent daily updates with photos, and it was so nice to see how comfortable they were while there. My dogs loved being around her and her family. I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Joe did an above and beyond job of taking such great care of Ollie for us while we were on vacation. He asked about all of the big and little details of Ollie’s care, was very attentive to his needs and feeding schedule, and I loved that not only did Ollie get plenty of attention from Joe and his family, but he had playmates (Joe’s dogs) to play with and keep him company, and Joe sent regular picture updates! It absolutely puts us at ease that our pup got to have such loving individual attention from a family! I’ve never boarded him at a business-but I’m pretty confident that the level of personal care he got in a loving home far supersedes that of a business. I would hands down book with Joe again!”
About: I have 9 years experience of professional dog training. I have 3 shepherds of my own who I use as demo dogs when teaching classes! I work with dogs of all breeds and sizes (always love a challenge:)). I also do a lot of boarding, dog sitting and walking for a lot of my clients and bring my dogs to tag along for a full pack walk! I also do baths, nails, blow drying and brush outs! I currently make my own schedule as I do dog training, grooming and boarding. I am able to attend to every dog immediately and do not need to leave them alone long at all! Sundays are the only days where there will be a 4 hour gap due to church :) I have a fenced and yard with plenty of space to roam and run and I have my 3 shepherds to keep your fur baby company! I also have crates that I can use as well!
“This was our first time trying Rover, or having anyone watch our pup. Karen was quick to respond, friendly, flexible, and did a wonderful job. She was also very reasonably priced! Oscar liked it there so much I don’t think he wanted to leave! She sent us updates, pics, and videos. We already have our next stay for him there planned. Will continue to use so we can visit family in Indy. Thank you Karen!”
“Mary is such a loving lady! It’s so reassuring knowing that Reggie is in good hands and receiving quality care 24/7 while we are away. Such a GREAT option for us instead of using a kennel or boarding service. I so appreciate Mary’s prompt response time when I need an update. AND she is such a friendly person and easy to love. 10/10 recommend!”

Kylie was awesome! Our dog was a rescue and can be hesitant around new people but the minute he saw Kylie, he acted like he had known her his whole. She sent us updates to let us know he was enjoying his stay which made us feel less guilty about vacationing without him. He spends his days lounging on the couch at home so going to a kennel would have been extremely difficult. Kylie allowed him to continue his pampered lifestyle. We will definitely be using Kylie’s services again. Thank you so much Kylie!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Fortville on Rover is $38.85 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 877 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Fortville. 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.
99% of Fortville 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 Fortville 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 Fortville 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 Fortville.
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 Fortville 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.
