“Jack had the best time! He didn't care that i was leaving him. He usually runs to the door and doesn't want me to leave without him. He loved it there. I said good bye and he walked away. I was the one that was having separation anxiety. He stayed a week and was very well taken care of. When I go back to Indiana I will definitely use again.”

“Sherri went above and beyond for our little Koko. She stayed in touch exceptionally both when things were not going well and when they were improving. Our little girl had a couple of issues and Sherri was immediately on top of it and did more than was expected to care for our dog. I would absolutely recommend Sherri for anyone needing to board their dog.”

“I was stuck in Houston for an extra couple of days from my flight being canceled and had to extend my dog’s stay. Lynelle helped me tremendously and sent me plenty of pictures. She also let me know he didn’t want to eat his food and she gave him some of her own dog’s food instead. I am so grateful for her and I will definitely book again in the future”

“Wow, what an incredible family! I believe we hit the jackpot by connecting with these amazing dog sitters. It is obvious how much they love animals. Our miniature poodle, Leo, was treated like royalty at their beautiful home. And it was so wonderful to see how excited their young daughters were to spend the day with Leo. We even sent a request last minute and needed them to watch him longer than planned, and they were so accommodating and kind. It was truly an amazing experience!”

I would love to check on your beloved pets while you go out of town or just have a busy day away from home They are welcome to spend as many nights at my house where the backyard is fenced in and they can play outside or inside I have a fenced in backyard and 2 dogs that haven't met a stranger yet. They will get fed and watered also get to hangout with 2 other dogs and play with them.

About: IMPORTANT— I will be in Connecticut from 12/20-1/3. All other dates I will be in Indiana. Unfortunately there is no way to specify location for specific dates in Rover. If you have any questions please let me know! I have taken care of pets my whole life (my own and others). I have two of my own dogs currently — at 70 lb Shepherd x Dalmatian and a 25 lb Jack Russel x Aussie, both of which can get rowdy so I am no stranger to high energy pets! I am happy to help work on basic commands and will make sure your pet gets plenty of physical and mental exercise! I am a graduate student so my schedule is very flexible when it comes to checking in on pets and I typically like to spend >1 hour with them a day. I can provide medications and/or any specific care that your dog might require. I am a graduate student and my schedule can be flexible! For boarding— my own dogs wake me up at 6 am to eat and then often like to go outside around 8 after some more snoozing. As a student I can be gone from 9-5 occasionally, but more often it is 11-4 or something similar. On average I am gone between 4-8 hours at a time depending on my schedule. During the day we usually play and I give them different enrichment toys. When I am home I let the dogs out frequently to romp in the yard! Dinner is around 5 and then usually a calm evening. My weekends I am usually home for the entire day. For at home visits or walks— I am happy to fit your pets needs into my schedule! I can offer up to 3 visits per day and can spend various amounts of time with your pet based on their needs. For boarding—I have a fenced in yard with plenty of room to run and play. I have two dogs who are friendly (albeit loud) and would love to run around with your dog! I do have a crate in the house for your dog if needed. When I am gone my own dogs are closed in my bedroom and I would likely close your pet(s) in a separate room as well— your pet does not need to be crate trained if they are non destructive! Because I do have pets of my own any boarded dogs need to be dog and cat friendly. For home visits and walks— I am slow to introduce myself with each visit to make sure your pet is comfortable with me in their home as it can be stressful!! I typically sit with pets before immediately going for the leash to make sure they feel safe. I am happy to spend time with your pets beyond walking/feeding! In am able to stay for longer periods of time in the evenings to play or sit and just spend time with them. I am comfortable with reactive dogs and will prioritize your pets comfort.

“Brittany was super nice and took very good care of Dobby for us while we were away. She sent us pics to keep us updated on how he was doing. He was happy to see us when we picked him up, but also tried to go back in with her when we left to go home so I'd say that speaks for itself.”

About: I started dog-sitting for friends and family while moving around for school and fell in love with it, so decided to now expand! I have experience with a disabled/mobility impaired dog and young puppies in training - and am always happy to continue promoting any training and goals set for your fur-babies. I work in healthcare full time through week days with odd hours, however always with a lunch break to split long-shift days. I also always have help with my boyfriend who has lenient hours during his masters degree at Purdue. He is able to be home any hours I am unable and vice versa to allow for pet care to owners preference. I have a pet-friendly apartment with a small open space and plenty of grass within the complex, along with a fenced-in dog park as well. I am able to crate as needed. If dog-sitting at a client’s, I always aim to follow their routine as able and treat the home with respect.

About: I’ve always loved animals and genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality! I have experience caring for pets for family, friends, and others, as well as raising and training my own Jack Russell Terrier with basic commands. I’m patient, attentive, and love giving pets plenty of playtime, attention, and affection. Whether your dog needs a fun walk, some extra cuddles, or someone to keep them company while you’re away, I’ll treat them like they’re my own! 🐾 I am a student at Purdue and have a lighter work load this semester. I have time before class, between classes, and after classes to commit to this! I have an apartment with no pets currently. My husband lives with me so he may be around your pet, but will not be proving any pet care services. We do not have a yard but I am more than willing to take the pets for a walk or to the dog park (depending on the dog). I also have friends houses with yards that I can use!

About: Hi there! I’ve had dogs my entire life and truly can’t imagine life without them. I’ve personally raised and trained three of my own and love dogs of every breed, size, and personality. I’m confident giving commands, going on safe, controlled walks, and caring for pets in a way that keeps them happy and comfortable. I’ve hosted dogs in my home as part of the family. They’re welcome on the couch, the bed, and anywhere they’d normally relax at home. If your dog is crate trained, that’s totally fine too! I’ve successfully trained using crates and will follow whatever routine helps your pup feel secure. Dogs are truly your best friend, always there to comfort you, make you smile, and love you unconditionally. They bring so much joy and deserve all the love and affection in return. That’s exactly how I care for every dog I meet. Whether it’s a walk, a drop-in, or an overnight stay, you can count on me to give your dog the same love and attention I give my own. 🐾 I work part-time and have a solid routine in place for my own fur babies at home. Mornings usually start with a potty break or walk if needed, followed by breakfast and a quick house check to make sure everything’s safe and tidy before I head out. I often come home on my lunch breaks to let the dogs out again, and I’m usually home between 4 and 5 in the afternoon for another potty break, dinner, and some relaxing downtime together. I’m flexible with feeding and walk times and can easily adjust my schedule to make sure your pet is comfortable, safe, and well cared for. I genuinely enjoy walks and love including them as part of my daily routine! Since I have two dogs of my own, I don’t offer overnight house sitting away from my home, but I’m happy to do drop-in visits and spend quality time with your pets while you’re away. I can come by for walks, playtime with their favorite toy or ball, or even practice basic commands using training treats or a clicker. I can also host them at my house for a stay! When your dog stays with me, they’ll be treated just like family, loved, cared for, and included in daily life. I have a fenced in backyard with plenty of space for running and playing. I do my best to follow the same routines and training methods you use at home, so your pet feels comfortable and confident while in my care. Your dog’s happiness, safety, and sense of routine always come first!

Alana was very attentive to our dog, and spent a lot of time and energy making sure we were comfortable with what his days looked like. She asked a ton of great questions that made me feel like she truly cared about him and knew how to take care of him. He came home after a two night stay and was clean, happy, and healthy.

I was very impressed with the service I received from Sherri (and Lee). They were very professional and thoughtful in caring for my dog. She advised me regarding training my over exuberant year-old puppy. Pictures and texts were provided during her stay, and she seemed to have a very good time. I would highly recommend Sherri and will use her again if the need arises. *****

Absolutely amazing! Lynelleaq took wonderful care of my dog, Jax, for six days while I was on vacation. I received daily photos and updates, which gave me complete peace of mind knowing he was happy and well cared for. Her communication was outstanding. She kept me informed about everything, and during a tornado warning she even texted to let me know they were safely sheltering in the basement. That level of care and thoughtfulness meant so much to me. When I picked Jax up, he was happy, healthy, and clearly loved. I would not hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable sitter!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Lafayette

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Lafayette on Rover is $42.8 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 64 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Lafayette. 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 Lafayette 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 Lafayette.

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 Lafayette 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.
