“They took great care of my boy. They only sent one or two photos a day; our other sitters spoiled us with photos, but he was in great hands.”

“Azure took care of my older dog (9 year old) and my puppy (7 months old) when our family was out of town for a much needed vacation. She was fantastic to work with! She made sure to do a meet and greet so that my pups could meet her pups to ensure that it would be a good fit for all involved. While I was gone, she sent me picture updates every day (sometimes videos!). I love getting pics while I'm away; it really sets my mind at ease and I appreciate her taking the time to keep in touch with me. When my flight was delayed on the way home, she was flexible and kept my dogs an extra 6 hours or so past when I was originally planning on being home and she was great through all of it. Absolutely would recommend Azure and will be reaching out to her when I need pet sitting services in the future!”
“Our pups had so much fun with hers and we got some cute photos of their stay! Easy communication and nice to know there's always someone there with the pups.”

“Our girl got so much love and attention with Lyndsey. I felt comfortable that her needs were met and she was safe. Lyndsey was so friendly and easy to work with. Will definitely use her again.”

“Anne truly cares about the pets that stay with her. She provided frequent updates and sent lots of photos, which I really appreciated as it was my first time leaving Winona overnight. I would highly recommend Anne to any person in need of a pet sitter!!”

“Heather is very reliable. I’ve used her several times and am happy with her care! She’s very responsive and timely to my inquiries. Would definitely recommend.”

“Alexander & Jaycee were absolutely incredible and took phenomenal care of my dog. They have a lovely home and perfect yard for exactly what my dog needs / is used to. And my dog actually became friends with their dogs (shout out to Stormy)! I would highly encourage anyone looking to let them take care of your pup! I’ll certainly be a repeat customer 😊.”
“We were so pleased by the care received from Mariana and Mark. They treated our girls like their own. Huge relief when you can find a sitter that’s reliable when traveling.”

“Gus had a wonderful time with Joscelyn and her family. I think he really missed his dog playmates when he got home. I would definitely recommend Joscelyn to take care of your dog.”

“We had our first night away from our puppy, and did so with peace of mind knowing our puppy was in great hands in boarding in Jennifer's home. She had a crate ready, toys, and more. We got lots of photos of our puppy having the best time. Highly, highly recommend!”

“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.”

“April was very accommodating with our dog ! We scheduled a meet and greet and found time for me to do a trial boarding day before our week long vacation! We feel very safe with our senior dog under her care !”

“Agnatha was great with my dogs! They warmed up to her really quickly and had a wonderful time with her. She sent me many pictures to show how they were doing and was communicative about what they were doing and how they were eating and such. I will definitely be a repeat customer! Thank you, Agnatha!!”

“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.”

“Pen had the most wonderful two and a half weeks with Rebecca. He loves her so much I plan to set up some daycare visits just so he can spend time with his best pal. They went in walks and snuggled on the couch, she gave him lots of love and attention, he was always happy and well cared for. She sent updates and pictures every day so I could feel confident he was relaxed and happy. He even made friends with the people in her neighborhood! He’s a social butterfly and she knew I was okay with him saying hello. This was my first time leaving him for a long vacation and I was really nervous about how successful he would be, but he had the most wonderful time with Rebecca and I was able to relax and enjoy myself knowing how happy my guy was.”

“Wai and Cody took great care of Rosie. As soon as we got home she fell right asleep on the couch. I could tell she had been walked and given plenty of attention. Will absolutely trust Wai with Rosie’s care again.”


“Kristen was amazing!! She took great care of our dog while we were away. It was our first time leaving her with someone that wasn’t family over night. She sent lots of pictures and kept us up to date!”

“We knew they were a good fit from our first meeting. Carter and Mindy treated JJ as their own! They gave us pictures and reports of his stay. He obviously was happy to be with them. We will not hesitate to call on them again!”

“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.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Ossian 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 146 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.
