“I was happy to find Chris when I needed to leave my dachshund with someone other than family for the first time while on a longer trip! Communication was good, I received a daily picture, and Chris was proactive about dealing with fireworks over the 4th of July. My little buddy seemed to have a good time there, and Chris managed his daily and monthly meds. I'm glad to have found someone so close to where I live also!!”
“Kathryn and Garrison took such good care of our Mabel while we were out of town! It ended up being a vacation for Mabel too - she got lots of love and enjoyed running around their backyard! We appreciated the consistent communication and they made sure to understand Mabel’s needs, which put our minds at ease. Would definitely recommend this pair!”
“Mary was able to watch our dog for a long weekend, very last minute. She is super communicative and sends updates frequently. She took our dog on walks and we know our dog was well taken care of. Mary is great!”
“Nicole took our dog very last minute and was so flexible with our timing. Her family took our dog into their home and treated him as their own! She is our go to when we need someone to watch our dog! We love the daily communication and pictures/videos she sends! We will be booking with her again soon!”
“Richard is amazing. Our boys enjoyed their stay. We had to extend our trip by 1 day and Richard was very accommodating. This is the 2nd time we have used Richard and already have another stay booked.”
“My sweet little Ginger loves staying with Brooke, Bryan, Birdie, Daisy, and children. I feel stress free leaving my Ginger with them for a weekend. Ginger loves spending time with them and gets excited when we turn down their street and into driveway. They have a lovely home with a big fenced in backyard. Brooke is excellent at communication and provides daily updates. Ginger had a fun weekend exploring the yard, watching cartoons, and playing while I was away. I would highly recommend Brooke and family to anyone looking for a Rover that offers dog boarding!”
“Seth and Rachel were great! This was the first time booking with them and they went out of their way to make sure Archie was comfortable. They provided updates and photos the whole time and had great communication. Would definitely book with them again!”
“Sara was very thoughtful and communicated during our Doberman’s stay and sent amazing photos. She made both drop off and pick up seamless as well. Looking forward to booking again with Sara in the future!”
“Amazing service!! She was in contact with me about my dog Max the whole time and sent me pics! We were nervous because hes blind, but the experience was great and Max came back super happy and smiling! Highly recommend!!!”
“Amy & Calab and the family are the best dog sitters. You can 100% trust them. They sent us al ot of pictures, and I could see on my dog's face and in their behavior that they were truly happy.”
“They communicated very well about how the stay was going! They sent pictures, communicated when my cats weren't getting along, very patient with my more nervous cat, and loved on my more out going cat like he was their own.”
“Emily and her husband were amazing with our dog. She invited us over before our trip for Our dogs to meet each other. They became fast friends and had a ball while we were away. Emily sent pictures and updates every day. Our flight was delayed coming home and she was very kind and understanding. We’ve found our trusted pet sitter!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Remi loved staying with Val! Would recommend to anyone. Selected Val because I knew our dogs would love playing with one another and her completely fenced yard made it easy.”
“Kelly was amazing! She sent us pictures of our babies everyday that she had them and they came back to us in good spirits! They had fun with her and I love that she had dogs of her own that mine were able to play and get along with! Will be sure to use Kelly’s services again!”
“Desirae was very sweet and accommodating for taking in our Riven for an extended stay with such short notice. We received an update for each day we were gone that usually included at least one picture or short video, and she answered any questions we had. Riven seemed happy and well cared for when we picked her up.”
“This was my second time using Nichole to care for our Great Dane puppy. I appreciate her ability to extend her services an extra day at the last minute. I always know that our puppy is safe and in good hands when she stays with them. Our puppy enjoys getting to play with other dogs of all ages and sizes and getting to run and play in their secure backyard. We will definitely continue to use Nichole for future bookings.”
“Hannah was the absolute best. Our dog is very attached to humans and she took excellent care of him for a week. She sent updates and cared for him during the night when he was scared of the rain. Can’t recommend her enough and we will be bringing Sergio back!”
“Leta and spouse treated my pups like royalty! We got lots of pictures and they were well loved, exercised and entertained. I’d highly recommend and will use them again. They even gave my pups a bath!”

Jackson took care of my pups while I traveled. This was their first time ever being boarded, so thanks for a pleasant experience. We were provided with updates and they even received a complimentary bath. I know my pups loved it as they love water and don't usually get 2 baths in a week lol. Thanks again Jackson, we will surely return again.
Fantastic service! Natasha took incredible care of Mango. She was super attentive the entire time, keeping me updated with photos and messages throughout his stay. She is incredibly kind and responsive—honestly, the best sitter I could have found. Highly recommended!
Gabrielle provided excellent care for our dog. She was very responsive and provide frequent updates and communications. Our dog got a little separation anxiety on the first couple days due to recent frequent moving. Gabrielle was very caring and provide extra care and support make our dog adjusted and relaxed quickly. Gabrielle also have a nice fenced yard for the dog to play and she played fetch with our dog, which is her favorite. Will absolutely use her again for our next session.
Kelsey has become our go-to sitter over the last couple years and I can’t recommend her enough! She is great with our dog Walter, sends daily photos, and is flexible when coordinating drop off/pick up. Truly can’t recommend her enough, Walter always comes home happy and well taken care of!
Mary and her husband took wonderful care of Bunny. They gave her plenty of one on one attention, were very accommodating of her quirks (especially her dislike of thunderstorms), and made sure she got lots of walks around the city. It’s clear they genuinely love dogs and treat them like family. I would happily trust them with Bunny again!
She was so wonderful! My friend that I was on vacation with told her husband that I was getting so many photos of Gally and she was barely getting any of their kids xD I can tell Gally had a great time at Leslie’s house. Thank you so much for watching her for so long!
Karli is amazing! She watched Indy for a long weekend for us when he was injured and she put me such at ease and just took the best care of him. He was basically on vacation getting cuddles and naps and going on little outings. We got lots of pics and Indy is looking forward to hanging out with her again!

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Indianapolis on Rover is $34.23 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

There are 930 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Indianapolis. About 91% of Indianapolis 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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.
