“Kelsey was great at keeping me updated on how Bonnie was doing. Her home and her calm demeanor made Bonnie feel at home. I will definitely book her again when the need arises!”
“It was an awesome experience. Deborah treated my dog, Trooper, like family. She took great care of him and provided constant updates and feedback. She was organized, professional, and courteous. I couldn't ask for more.”
“I cannot say enough nice things about Jordyn and how well she took care of my littlest love, Fettuccine. It was my first time using Rover and my first time leaving him with a non-family member, and she put me completely at ease. She has wonderful communication, sent tons of photos, and I highly recommend using her. My flight coming home was delayed, and I needed to add another day to his care, and she handled my request seamlessly. He played his heart out and made new friends, and now I know who to use whenever I need a sitter. Thank you so much again, Jordyn!”
“Svetlana took excellent care of Dexter during his two-week stay. Communication was great from start to finish, and she consistently sent detailed updates, photos, and videos every day, which gave us a lot of peace of mind while traveling. It was clear Dexter was very comfortable and happy in her care. She paid close attention to his routines, walks, eating habits, and even adapted really well to communicating with him using hand signals since he is deaf. We especially appreciated how observant and thoughtful she was about his comfort, behavior, and exercise. Dexter clearly bonded with her family and PomPom, and it genuinely felt like he was staying in a caring home environment rather than just being boarded. We would absolutely book with Svetlana again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and caring dog sitter.”
“Lori went above and beyond to be sure my baby was well taken care of while I was out of town. She was very attentive and communicative. 11/10 would book with her again!!! Can’t recommend her enough!”
“It was my cats first time being watched by anyone and this couple made the experience perfect for her. They are very good at keeping updates and gave her all the love to make her feel safe and happy. Thank you again and I will be booking a longer stay next month 💜”
“Kristina and her husband were wonderful to work with and they took amazing care of Arthur. Easy drop of and pick up. Clear communications and no confusion. Great updates throughout his stay. He was loved and treated as one of their own dogs. And it showed. I will definitely be using this family again for my boardings in the future.”
“Thank you, Tiffany and family, for taking such great care of Pedro! Such a loving family and he seemed very comfortable. Grateful for the updates and pics :)”
“Ryan and family were exceptional! I highly recommend them and hope that they have availability the next time in have the need. Wonderful people and Rover ambassadors!!”
“Always quick to respond and accommodating after a couple of hiccups on my part! My dogs are always happy and energetic after leaving after all of my bookings with Tena :)”
“Lauren took care of Charlotte for 8 nights . Being a in door dog and limited interaction I was concerned that Charlotte would not settle into Lauren’s home. Each day I received an update that included pictures of Charlotte. I felt Lauren and her family gave Charlotte a secure place to feel at home with them. Definitely recommend Lauren to be a Rover mom.”
“We used Delys for the first time. We are happy to share it won’t be the last time. She was very responsive in communications, handled all of Duke’s medications easily, and provided a loving, safe environment for him. We would strongly recommend her for anyone seeking dog sitting services.”
“We love Chris and Donna! This is the second time we’ve worked with them 😆 and definitely not the last. They took such good care of our dog. We appreciate the updates and photos they send throughout our trip! They also are flexible and allowed us to pick up our dog earlier than we planned. Truly the sweetest people!”
“Karenly was amazing with Indy. She kept me updated and asked all the right questions. We look forward to using her for boarding in the future. She sent photos and also let us know how she was adjusting. 10/10 Service”
“Joseph is amazing—professional, attentive, and clearly experienced with dogs. He provided regular updates that gave me peace of mind. will definitely book again and highly recommend him.”
“Kris and her family are great! They gave our girls lots of love and attention. She sent us pictures several times a day. Our girls always looked happy and right at home. We will definitely book with Kris again. Thank you to Kris and her family.”
“She is the best! I booked her last minute for my little man's week-long stay, and every day she sent photos and videos with updates on how he was doing. When it was time to go, he didn't want to leave, which is an amazing sign that he had a great time. I will definitely book with her again in the future and would recommend her to anyone!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Gary 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 1,255 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Gary. 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.
97% of Gary 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 Gary 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 Gary 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 Gary.
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 Gary 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 TX 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.
