Allison and Nicholas were a life saver…I needed help last minute for our dog and they gladly helped us. My dog was so comfortable he didn’t even want to leave when we came to get him lol. They are the perfect couple to keep your pup if needed and I’ll definitely contact them again. 🥰🥰💜💜

Natalie was great, she recommended a meet n greet the day before so Bucky could meet her and her dogs. Bucky has a great time for the week we were gone and Natalie provided pics and videos almost every day. Bucky was exhausted when he got home. It was a pleasant experience.

I cannot express how grateful I am for the exceptional care my dog received from Anne over the 10 days I was away. She was incredibly attentive and ensured my furry friend felt loved and well-cared for the entire time. Her communication was outstanding; she provided regular updates and was always open and responsive to any questions I had. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of a reliable and caring dog sitter. She truly goes above and beyond!

Ozzie had the best care at Stephanie’s. I was afraid he wouldn’t want to come home with me! She treated him just like her own and I feel very lucky to have had found her. I will definitely try to rebook next time we travel.

Highly recommend Karisa! She kept me updated throughout their stay and sent me pictures. She also sent them home with homemade dog cookies. Her house looked very clean and my dogs were happy and healthy when they returned home.

Mindi's gentle spirit was a perfect fit for Ozzy. He was very happy when picked up and seemed to enjoy his walks and time with Mindi. She kept in touch by sending pictures of Ozzy and asked questions about how best to care for him. I will gladly reach out to Mindi again the next time we need someone to watch Ozzy.

Cory was very kind and made me feel so comfortable with leaving my pupper (Roko) with him. The communication was 100%, great amount of space for Roko to run off his energy and play, and just awesome understanding and care for him. I will be rebooking for the next time we have a family trip because my Roko felt so loved and comfortable and happy here.

Cassandra did a great job taking care of Banjo for two nights. Communication was excellent (photos and videos, along with messages about how he was doing), and Cassandra was willing to accommodate drop-off and pickup requests to fit my schedule for the weekend. I have always been apprehensive about boarding my dogs at a kennel if I have to go out of town for more than one night. Cassandra made Banjo feel at home and kept him in a normal, relaxed environment and routine.

Hannah and Haley did a great job with my baby! A perfect fit for Jamie's separation anxiety, since he was never home alone, and he came home a very tired baby after playing with Hannah's dogs all weekend. He didn't seem to want to leave!

Violet always has the best time when she goes to Agnathas home! She comes back exhausted, from all the play time she gets in while there! Agnatha loves to spoil Violet as well, she snuggles her and lets her on the sofa! I was worried Violet wouldn’t want to come back home with us. It is a nice relief knowing our pup is getting the best care while we are away!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Ossian

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Ossian on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of June 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 June 2026, there are 154 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Ossian. 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.

100% of Ossian 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 Ossian 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 Ossian 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 Ossian.

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 Ossian 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.
