“This was my first time having to leave my pup for a vacation and Destinee provided peace and mind that my pup was safe and having a blast while I was gone. I loved getting to see all the fun he had at the end of the day from all the pictures I got.”
“Ginger loves when she’s able to stay with her friends! As soon as we turn onto their street, she gets super excited and runs right up to the door. I always know she’s having a great time and is safe when she stays at their house. Couldn’t ask for a better place for her to be!”
“Rachel and her family are INCREDIBLE. I received multiple photo and video updates of my sweet boy throughout his stay with them. It put my dog mom heart at ease knowing he was being loved and played with while I was gone. I absolutely recommend them and will use them again in the future!”
“Christopher was great with our elderly dog! Bucco was asleep on the couch when I came to pick him up. Our dog looked up, though happy to see me, seemed to be telling me, "Really? I have to get up? But I'm comfortable. " Christopher sent pictures every day. That was much appreciated. One of my son's asked every day if there was a picture. Thank you Christopher!”

It was hard for me not being able to physically see where the dogs hang out but they have so many good reviews, and they sent me pictures which was awesome. And again my pup was very happy when I picked her up we’re gonna give it another try thanks again.”

I would recommend this family to anyone with dog sitting needs!”

“Jennifer was the perfect choice for us and our two furry friends! We booked her for several days over Thanksgiving and she was so patient and flexible with our changing drop-off and pickup times! She is also extremely knowledgeable and really helped lower my anxiety about leaving my anxious and older dog and my quirky puppy for the first time in a long time! Definitely recommend with no hesitation and she’ll be the first Rover sitter we look for next time we have to leave them!”
“This was our kitten’s first time staying away from home, and Shelby made it care-free and easy! She kept such a close eye on our kitten, even if the kitten didn’t necessarily want her too, haha!

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Shelbyville on Rover is $29.98 per night (as of July 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 .

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 Shelbyville 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 Shelbyville 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 Shelbyville 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 Shelbyville.
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 Shelbyville 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.
