“Mallory was phenomenal watching Mozzie on a last minute booking. Sent pictures and kept us up to date on what he was doing. Taking him out to the dog park and playing with other puppers. Even sent him home with some dog treats :) highly highly recommend. If I come back to Indiana and need a sitter, she’s who I would book every time.”

“Bobbie did not disappoint! Charlie walked right in and made himself at home! I knew he was in great hands when I was away for a week! I received daily updates and pictures and Charlie's smile in every one of them let me know he was doing great! Will definitely try and book her for future trips.”

“Nancy and her Husband are so sweet ♥️ Our little Theo went to stay with her for one night and he had a great visit! We don’t use dog sitters much so we were a little nervous to drop him off, but Nancy and her Husband made us confident with their passion for dogs. Will use them again, for sure!”


“Kristen was great in accommodating our immediate request. She gave us updates/sent pictures. Cody came home happy and obviously excited to see us again. Will definitely rebook with her in the future.”

“From the moment they opened the door for the meet and greet I knew i’d be leaving my dog in the best hands. Deborah & Jeffrey are warm and kind individuals who will truly care for your pet. Their three dogs and two rabbits sound like a houseful already, but the home is calm and relaxed and the dogs are curious and sweet. They go the extra mile with care and attention. My dog was a bit under the weather when I took her and they went above and beyond to make her feel better. They provided regular checkins and photos and are quick with responses. I had zero worries, well maybe just one, that my dog may not want to come home. Deborah & Jeffrey are excellent and now my go to for future pet care.”

“Lynna is an excellent dog sitter. She sent numerous pictures while sitting for my dog Bella. She even sent me a photo shot that she did with Bella. It was just adorable. She suggested a different treat for Bella that she enjoyed. I was very comfortable leaving my dog with Lynna.”

“Katia was so awesome and took care of my husky Ethel for 5 days while I was out of town. She came home so happy and exhausted. 10/10 She accommodate us last minute which was super sweet of her.”

“Wonderful caretakers. Our dog had some anxiety issues while we were gone and Precious was very communicative and helpful navigating taking care of our boy.”

“Wonderful people, they loved being there and played tons. Took wonderful care of them, we loved the photos and the updates so much! Would 100% recommend boarding with them, we will definitely book again if we come back out that way.”


“Alexis was fantastic with Bentley! He can be anxious when away from home, but he always seemed relaxed and happy in the daily updates I would get. He even let Alexis trim his nails, which he seldom does with anyone!”

“This was the third time that Luna, my dog, was kept by Amanda. Of course, I like her personally, and I believe that Luna does, too. Pictures are regularly sent to me showing Luna on walks and relaxing with Amanda's dog and cat. I feel very comfortable leaving Luna with Amanda and feel that Luna's in capable hands and enjoys a warm household.”

“Christopher was great to work with! He was super sweet to my dog, spoke highly of him and followed all my care directions. He was highly communicative and very flexible! I appreciate his care! We have already booked our next boarding stay with him.”

“My pup Lizzie and I could not recommend Adrienne more highly! Adrienne keeps me updated with pictures while I’m away, and Lizzie clearly loves and trusts Adrienne implicitly. It’s a wonderful thing to pick up a happy and relaxed dog after being away.”

There are 754 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Shirley. About 92% of Shirley sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be.

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
