“Duane took such good care of my adult (6yo) mini poodle. Although it was only one night that my dog stayed with him, I could clearly see that she became a good friend of him and when I went to pick her up after the stay.”

About: Special Education Teacher with a love of animals. Patient, kind, understanding, flexible. Originally from Chicago, from cats, to squirrels, to dogs, to hummingbirds, to bunnies, to bearded dragons, I have the heart for sending animals in need to a rescue center, and/or homing. Animals deserve love and care, no matter their personality. I strive to respect you as a pet parent and your baby, following owner directions and askings. Just like my students, I treat every animal as if they are my own. Safety is my top priority, as well as communication and transparency. Currently open for the Thanksgiving week and weekend because of being a teacher. After Dec 1 I will be available before 6:30am, evenings, and weekends. I have a degree in general and special education and am very patient with animals and like to know everything the owner can tell me, and respect the animal. Having an antisocial pet with trauma, I respect her and love her as much as my others because she deserves it. I am very careful and take care of animals as if they were my own, just like I do with the children in my classroom.

“Manuel was an amazing dog sitter for my pup, Swoosh, and I couldn’t have been happier with the care he provided. From the moment we connected, Manuel was responsive, kind, and clearly experienced with dogs. Throughout the stay, he sent me regular updates and adorable photos of Swoosh, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Swoosh looked so happy and relaxed in every picture—it was clear he was being treated like part of the family. I’m so grateful for the love and attention Manuel gave to my pup. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to book with him again. Highly, highly recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

About: I've been surrounded by furry friends since day one! 🐶 Seriously, I can't remember a time without a doggo by my side. Thinking about all the pets I've had makes me so happy. 🥰 Anyone else feel like their pets are family? It's the best kind of love! Enjoying the freedom of open schedule currently at home full-time. So furry buddies will get Daily walks around the lake to offer a refreshing escape. Relaxing time outside under tree shade help me do some gardening🤣. Dogs will be created when I am not home. I currently own a golden retriever. She's a friendly dog. I don't have a fenced in yard my dog listens to commands. Leashes and yard leads will be used. At night dogs will be in their creates.

“Mark went above and beyond taking care of our Old English Bulldog, Ned, while we were away for a week on vacation. He was quick to respond to our meet and greet and Ned liked him right away! He was efficient and quick in communication. He made sure Ned felt at ease and comfortable while he boarded with him. He sent photos and updates almost daily on how Ned was doing. He even got him some of his favorite treats. We will definitely contact Mark in the future to walk or board our furry friend! Highly recommend, Mark!”

“My Gizelle walked right into Victoria's place inspecting every corner before Victoria could give her a proper greeting! Gizelle was very comfortable and tool to Victoria who sent photos throughout the days I was gone. Somehow Victoria got Gizelle to use a pee pad and play with a toy. Things she never does at home. I am grateful for Victoria's care. Thank you!”

About: I’ve been dog walking for 4 years and truly love caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities.Im also a dog mom to 2 presa carinos & 1 maltipoo. I’m reliable, patient, and focused on making sure every pup feels safe, happy, and comfortable during every walk. Whether your dog needs exercise, playtime, or just a little extra attention while you’re away, I treat them like family. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as a stay-at-home mom because I have a flexible schedule and spend most of my day active and organized. I enjoy being around animals, and I have free time during the day that allows me to give pets the attention, exercise, and care they need. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or check-ins, I’m able to make pet care a consistent and reliable part of my weekly routine.I can also do late drop ins. I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. In my client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, medications if needed, and any special care requests. I also make sure pets get plenty of attention, patience, and exercise based on their personality and energy level. I always prioritize safety, supervision, and communication with pet parents by providing updates and photos so they feel at ease while away.

About: With 25 years of experience around dogs, I have developed a strong understanding of canine behavior, training, handling, and everyday care. I have experience working with dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. I believe every dog deserves patience, consistency, structure, and individual attention. Whether caring for an energetic puppy or an older companion, I tailor my approach to each dog’s personality, needs, and established routine. I personally provide all care for pets booked through Rover, including feeding, walking, exercise, supervision, and daily routines. I am the sole caretaker and take pride in providing a safe, comfortable, and positive experience for every dog in my care. Caring for dogs is a regular part of my daily life. I enjoy providing a balance of exercise, playtime, relaxation, and structured routines. We’re conveniently located near beautiful Lake Michigan, giving us access to wonderful walking areas and outdoor activities. I also enjoy taking suitable dogs to Jackson Bark Dog Park for exercise, play, and socialization when appropriate and approved by their owners. Whether your dog enjoys an active day outdoors or prefers relaxing inside with the family, I make sure their daily routine is tailored to their individual needs. Dogs in my care receive attention, companionship, and plenty of opportunities to enjoy themselves! I strive to provide a safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment where every dog feels at home. Our property features spacious, dedicated kennel runs, allowing each dog to have its own comfortable space when needed. Our guests aren’t limited to their kennels, though! Dogs are also welcome inside our home to relax, spend time with the family, and enjoy a more personal boarding experience. We’re located near beautiful Lake Michigan, providing wonderful opportunities for walks and outdoor exercise. One of our favorite destinations is Jackson Bark Dog Park, which offers a separate private area where dogs can enjoy individual exercise and playtime without interacting with unfamiliar dogs. This is especially beneficial for dogs that prefer their own space or aren’t comfortable in large groups. Visits are offered when appropriate and with owner approval. As an experienced dog trainer, I understand canine behavior, body language, and the importance of structured routines. I carefully consider each dog’s personality, comfort level, and compatibility before allowing interactions with other dogs. My goal is to provide more than just boarding. I want every dog to enjoy exercise, companionship, affection, and individualized care while giving their owners peace of mind.

About: I Love animals. Especially dogs and cats. I have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all kind. Your pet will be staying in my home, so they will have the whole house to themselves. I take extra long walks to the park and the beach often. You will never find anyone more invested in your best friend. Every hour of every day is dedicated to caring for your best friend. I am very active. I go to the gym 5 days a week. Working with dogs and cats gives me what we need in order to stay fit and mental stable. I will have your doggies tired at the end of the day!! The doggies and kitties have the entire house to their self. I have a big home with 4 floors. I also have a large yard that is fenced in and totally secure. No one gets in or out unless I decide to.

“Desiree was incredibly accommodating to my dog's needs and very understanding of her anxiety. Since this was Bell-A’s first time being boarded, I was naturally nervous, but Desiree took excellent care of her and made the experience as stress-free as possible. She sent daily updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that Bell-A was in caring and capable hands. I truly appreciate the attention, patience, and love she showed my dog, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter.”

About: I am a Mother of 4 grown daughters! I am a single woman and I love animals and the love they bring to my life. I had all kinds of pets as a child and in my married household we had a loving and sweet Shih Tzu that was like another daughter to me. I regularly dog sit my 2 Grandoodles Hazel and Daisy and my other daughter has a husky/shepard mix named Charlie. I live alone and have so much time to devote to your pet! I am very patient... (even with the most stubborn of pets) I am available with much flexibility weekly and weekends. Please consider me as your next house/dog sitter! Your pet/home are absolutely my very first priority when house/pet sitting. I’ll keep your pet/pets safe and loved throughout our time together. Nothing is more important. Absolutely nothing comes before watching your pets! I do prefer to watch your pet/pets in their own environment as they are most comfortable in their own homes. I will sleep with your pet if that’s their routine! I follow all the instructions given to me by the pets owner and I take tons of pictures !

I was so nervous to leave my dogs for a week since I rarely ever spend time away with them. I chose Cassidy because of her experience and many great reviews. As soon as I received updates the very first night, I was finally able to relax and enjoy my vacation. Cassidy gave updates frequently and sent me lots of pictures whenever she could. She was so accommodating to my dog Ace and she made sure to wash him after he had a few accidents in the cage due to his anxiety. My dogs had so much fun and they were well taken care of while I was gone. Cassidy is communicative, accommodating and a very trustworthy dog sitter.

FAQs for Pet Boarding - Griffith

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Griffith is $53 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $65 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

There are 3,099 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Griffith. About 89% of Griffith 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

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. 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.
