“We cannot recommend Ryan and Brittany enough! From the moment of first contact until we picked our dog up, they were amazing! We got daily pictures and updates the entire time we were gone. We will definitely be using them again!”
“Crystal has kept our pup several times while we were traveling and she is amazing! I always enjoy seeing a few photos and knowing she's in excellent care and having fun while we are away.”
“ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC! This was our 1st Rover booking and I think we found the best pet sitter! Odalys was great. Her communication - both before and during our dog's stay - was excellent. We especially liked the photos that she sent to us while we were away. She truly loves the pets in her care. We would highly recommend!”
“We cannot say enough good things about Rajesh!!! He genuinely loves dogs and took great care of our 2-year old standard goldendoodle. Rajesh not only sent daily pictures or video, but also added a nice note, which really warmed our hearts to know that our Willy was having fun and under good care!”
“Jessica and David took great care of Mocha. They communicated well, sent us lovely photos of our pooch during her stay, and treated her to a walk, car ride and pup cup. They are true dog people! Absolutely would book them again.”
“This was first time boarding experience for our dog Rin. She seemed a little nervous at first, but quickly got used to it and was able to spend the three days feeling at ease. She gave us updates frequently so we could spend feeling at ease as well. Thank you so much and we will see you soon for Christmas and new year boarding.”
“Paul is a fantastic dog sitter, and he really came through for us with a last-minute request for watching our little guy Winston with just 2 days' notice for Labor Day weekend. He stayed very communicative, and I know Winston had just the best time ever romping around with Paul's two little pups because he fell asleep in the car immediately when I picked him up. We would absolutely use Paul again for dog sitting, and I'd highly recommend him!”
“Chris made me and my fur baby feel comfortable in her home. I appreciate her time to meet us in her home and discuss our pet. Our fur baby suffers from separation anxiety but because of Chris’s personality and experience in caring for pets my boy was relaxed and therefore I was able to relax during our vacation. 100% recommend you to trust Chris with your fur baby. Thanks Chris!”
“I highly recommend Brianna for any of your pet care needs. I adopted a husky 7 months ago that had separation anxiety. He had grown a lot but I was fearful of leaving him with anyone. We started with a few days of daycare with Brianna and then he stayed with her for 5 nights. Brianna texted me daily and shared updates and pictures. He was so well cared for and so comfortable with her and her doggos that I now consider Brianna's place his second home! Please don't hestitate booking services with her, she is a gem and someone I am truly grateful for.”
“Wow! Breanna and her family went above and beyond for my two dogs who have never been boarded before. The dogs were a little anxious the first day and first night and they did what it took to calm them. I received numerous photos and updates every day and even a video of my doodle playing with Breanna's two young kids <3 Our dogs were thrilled to see us after three full days but I could tell they were very, very well taken care of at this home. I wouldn't hesitate to use Breanna again in the future. The people in this family are truly dog lovers through and through. Thanks so much!”
“Galina and her family were incredibly kind and took wonderful care of my pup. I received lovely photos and she got to spend time with their other sweet dogs. They even dressed her up for Halloween! I couldn't have asked foe a better dogsitter.”
“My dog had lots of fun and seemed to be well taken care of. She had friends to play with, and was pretty sad when we left! You could just tell she wasn't ready to leave. I got nightly updates and they handled her very well.”
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!

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
95% of sitters in Shannondale can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Shannondale 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 Shannondale.
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 Shannondale 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.

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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
