“Amy did an excellent job caring for our dog, Penny. Penny loved playing and snuggling with Amy and her son. We received great communication and pictures throughout the time Penny was with Amy. We would definitely recommend Amy and will use her in the future.”
“Tammy was a great caretaker for our Babu! She is very attentive and compassionate. She even washed her blankets for Babu when she needed it. I recommend her to anyone with small dogs. She will love them while you are away, as if they are her own.”
“Julie and her family were amazing with our pets! My Bernese Mtn. Dog is a very anxious, velcro type of dog and we really hate to leave him behind. My cat can also be very shy and is newer to the family, so we worried about his first stay away from our home. We received constant photos updates that really put our mind at ease during our trip! I have never felt so relaxed while being away from my animals (and that's a big deal for me..). You could easily tell our animals felt safe, comfortable, and happy in every picture we received. We will definitely be rebooking with them if the need arises in the future! You can tell Julie's kiddos take the care of all animals very seriously as well. It definitely allowed for a lot of flexibility on their end as our flight home got changed several times....We love these guys!!!”
“Mary is amazing!!! Great communication, sent pictures and updates everyday. We never once had to worry about our pup while we were out of state. She treats your pup like they are hers. 100 % recommend!!”
“Candie took great care of Maisie - and put our minds at ease through the holiday. Her pup is a charming and gentle guy, and they got along very well. We will be back!”
“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!”
“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.”
“They were amazing!!! I was gone for 9 days and they made me feel at ease. I received pictures everyday! My puppy loved them!! Amazing family!! Thank you!!”
“Mallory was awesome with my mini goldendoodle Bella. She took her to the dog park daily, gave her lots of cuddling time and made Bella feel right at home. You can tell that Mallory truly loves dogs. I highly recommend her!”
“Steve was an absolute wonderful sitter for my guide Dog Sean. He paid attention to all details and information that was given. He also gave information and feedback on walks and he provided pictures of what he was doing with Sean”
“Our 40 pound Bernie doodle enjoyed nine days with Marietta & Nanette. Their large fencedbackyard and other dogs they were caring for were perfect matches for our 20 month old pet. We received great pictures every day and were assured during the very hot Indiana Summer that our pet had adequate time outside but also was well protected from the heat in their home. We would highly recommend this Rover t and will certainly rebook on our future vacations.”
“She was great with Leo. Sent great photos of Leo having fun with others. And so communicative and very friendly. Will book everytime we’re in town and highly recommend her services! 🤎”
“Christina and her family took the best care of our dog! They made her feel like she was a part of their family! Christina also kept us updated with pics and messages! Thank you!”
“Ellie is a fantastic dog sitter. She watched our Beagle for 4 days and he was well cared for. He takes several medications and she was experienced with older dogs on meds. I could relax on vacation knowing he was in good hands.”
“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 took such amazing care of Barley. They kept him active and loved on him as much as we do. We highly recommend them and will contact them in the future.”
“We recently booked Adrienne for an overnight for our pup Bear. It's always a little scary making a booking in a different city because you don't really have luxury of a meet and greet. I carefully screened potential candidates and settled on Adrienne as a good fit for Bear based on her profile and reviews. We were extremely pleased with Adrienne! Bear always shows a lot through his body language and he was very comfortable with Adrienne right out of the gate! I told her she's a dog whisperer! The care and love she showed for Bear was and is very appreciated. We hope to travel back to the Indianapolis area in the not too distant future and will definitely try to book Adrienne again. We highly recommend her and most importantly, Bear does too!”

There are 765 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 personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
