My dog returned from Alejandra's good care happy and exhausted. She cared for him well, entertained him, provided lots of playtime with other dogs, and kept me up to date. She was also very accommodating when I found my flight plans cancelled due to bad weather. It was reassuring to know that she would not leave my dog in the lurch!

This was my second time booking with Leandra and mark. They took such good care of my dog Berry. Leandra keeps you updated and responds back fast. They will forever be who I trust my baby with!

Faith and her Family are great! I’ve felt so comfortable leaving my fur babies with them! The photos and videos I got daily showed how much they enjoyed and cared for them while they were there. I will definitely keep faith as my go to when I need a pup sitter!

Josie and Michael were fabulous! It is such a relief to have a place to leave your fur babies and you do not need to worry. Josie made drop off a breeze and when I picked them up my babies seemed very relaxed, even though it was their first night away! I appreciate them very much and will definitely be using them again in the future. Do not hesitate to call on them, you will not be disappointed. Thank you so much Josie & Michael for welcoming my fur babies into your home.

Our dog Daisy was very well cared for. This was her first time being away from family and she took to Bree and her husband right away at the meet and greet. That initial interaction was very comforting. We'd love to have Bree sit for Daisy again!

Betty sent us texts and photos to keep us updated about our pup. Patches stayed with her for two days and two nights while we were in South Bend for game weekend. The host pups were very sweet and good companions for our dog. We would use this dog vacay again.

Paul and Kelly (and kids) did a great job caring for our puppies. When we arrived for pickup, our puppies were happy and energetic. Paul and Kelly were very receptive to following our dogs’ schedules. We will definitely take them back to Paul, Kelly and the kids!

Kevin and his wife Piper took exceptional care of my golden retriever, Point! From start to finish, I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such great hands. They went above and beyond by sending plenty of pictures, which really showed how comfortable and happy Point was during his stay, it meant so much to see him having such a great time. It’s clear they truly care about the dogs they watch and treat them like their own. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and I will most definitely be having them watch Point again. Highly recommend!

Marcia was an exceptional dog sitter during my time away. She consistently provided updates, sharing pictures of my dogs throughout the day. Her flexibility in accommodating various aspects of their stay was greatly appreciated. Marcia's kindness and attentiveness were evident, and she kept me well-informed at all times. My two pups were thoroughly worn out from playing with her and her dog, which speaks to the level of care and attention they received. I highly recommend Marcia for any pet sitting needs!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Shipshewana on Rover is $22.2 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 177 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Shipshewana. 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 Shipshewana 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 Shipshewana 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 Shipshewana 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 Shipshewana.

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 Shipshewana 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.
