“My puppy had so much with Laura. She sent pictures and updates every day. Laura responds very quickly to inquiries both before and during boarding. I have already booked another stay a few weeks from now. Very pleased with my first time using a dog sitter.”
“Jennifer is definitely among the greatest sitters you can get! She was so caring and accommodating. Her cats are also very sweet and sociable, it was great to see how well they got along with my cat Tori. She also sent a lot of photos and videos so I can tell Tori is having a great time at Jennifer's place. Highly recommended to anyone who needs to board their fur babies!”
“Great service! My dog Pompeii was well taken care of. He had loads of fun and was very active while being taken care of while I was out of town for my daughter's wedding. Great communication along with photo updates during his stay. Highly recommended!”
“Lucy was fantastic with Koda! He's a high-energy adolescent shepherd mix, so I'm always grateful when I find someone who really understands dogs and is thoughtful about introductions, play, and group dynamics. She sent updates and videos throughout the weekend, which I appreciated so much, and it was clear that Koda was having an absolute blast. He came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. As a dog sitter myself, I can be a little picky about who I leave my dog with, and I would not hesitate to book with Lucy again. Highly recommend!”
“Nicole and Tim were great sitters! They were flexible, very quick to respond, and their home was very clean. They took great care of Quinn and I know she had a great time with them.”
About: I’ve been up around animals my whole life and have experience with all different types. I’m comfortable with pets at every stage, from energetic puppies and kittens to senior pets who need a little extra patience and care. I’m reliable when it comes to sticking to routines, whether that’s specific feeding times, multiple daily walks, or just giving your pet the attention they’re used to. I genuinely love spending time with animals and will treat your pet like my own while you’re away. I work remotely, so I’m home throughout the day and able to give pets plenty of attention, potty breaks, and playtime. I also go on several walks throughout the day for dogs that need extra exercise or energy release. I’m available for boarding in my home, as well as drop-in visits and check-ins throughout the day depending on your pet’s needs and routine. I have a fenced-in yard where dogs can safely run around and explore, and I always make sure pets are supervised and comfortable while in my care. I’m happy to follow any feeding schedules, medication instructions, crate routines, or special requests to help your pet feel at home. I can care for pets at my house or make visits to your home throughout the day to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible.
“Our dog enjoyed her stay at Katie’s! Katie was attentive to her needs and her dog got along great with ours. Katie’s home is cozy and Finley enjoyed the large backyard. I hope to be able to rebook with her in the future!”
“We loved working with Leslie! She did a great job of keeping us up-to-date with how stitches was doing and sending lots of photos. We’re so glad to have someone take such great care of our dog when we’re away.”
“Lorena was awesome! Basel was immediately comfortable and genuinely looked so happy there in all of the photos she sent us. Usually when we pick him up from somewhere, the second we put his harness and leash on he is pulling to go out the door. But we have NEVER seen him return to almost as if say goodbye as he did to Lorena before we left. We definitely look forward to booking her again!”
“We had a great experience with Marie and her family! She was available to do a meet and greet before we left Cooper with her for a long weekend and was very flexible on drop off and pick up timing. We got updates throughout the weekend and Cooper came home absolutely exhausted, a sure sign of a good time. We like that he was able to get a lot of interaction with the kids, and they all seemed to like helping out. We will definitely have Marie on our list next time we need a place for Cooper to stay.”
“I cannot say enough good things about Sarah. We added a 5 month old puppy to our pack two weeks before leaving town, and she took our older dog and this new addition without missing a beat. I was a nervous wreck before leaving, but Sarah calmed all my nerves and was so calm about the whole process that we were able to leave town with a sense of peace. Photos and updates daily really helped put our minds at ease while traveling, also! Sarah has an intuitiveness with dogs that not everyone has, and she was the perfect match for us. We're so grateful for the excellent care she took of our girls!”
“This was our 2nd stay with Julia and it went great! Penny was well cared for and Julia sent regular updates. Would definitely recommend booking a stay with Julia.”
“Karen was wonderful with Annie over Thanksgiving. Annie liked Karen’s. We got lots of pictures of her resting, eating and walking. Karen took good care of our little girl. Definitely will use her again!”
“Our pup was in excellent hands with Mary! She was able to help us out with a last-minute request, and took great care of Sandy - sent us pictures & updates and was easy to communicate with. We won’t hesitate to book with her again.”
“Dustin and Maggie are terrific! They are so nice and treated our pup, Chico, like their own. We got lots of pictures and Chico had a great time! Highly recommend! Chico is already looking forward to his next visit.”
“My pups loved their stay here! Alycia and her partner took such good care of them, sent us lots of pictures, and were super communicative. Will definitely be using them again!!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Shrewsbury
Finding care for our pups when we went out of town used to be the most stressful part. Since finding Sarah, it is not! She's amazing to work with, flexible, and sends updates and pictures. As someone who probably spends more time than most thinking about and planning for and training my dogs, I'm pretty picky on who I let care for them and from now on, we can't leave town if Sarah isn't available! :)
Sally is the best.dog.caregiver ever!! She loves our little poodle Zosha and Zosha can't wait to have a vacay at Sally's house! She walks her every day, and Zosha loves to lay across her legs in the evening on the sofa. She also sends us pictures of Zosha everyday and lets us know how she is doing. Sally is so loving to the dogs she watches - we are so happy to have found her and Zosha is a regular visitor in her home. Thank you Sally - you are the best!!
We used Hailie for the first time that we spent a night away from our puppy and highly recommend her to anyone else looking! She took the time to get to know us ahead of time and tailored his stay based on his personality. She was very attentive to him and ensured that he was comfortable in her home. He’s still under a year old, so he’s got plenty of energy to spare. Hailie kept him busy with playtime and sent us lots of pictures and videos to keep us updated. We look forward to using her again in the near future!
Lesley was a true blessing when we were frantically looking for a sitter last minute. It was our time using Rover and first time using a non-family member to watch Asher so we were very anxious! From meet-and-greet and communication while Asher was with her, to his tail waging goodbye at pickup, we’re grateful to Lesley (and her pups) for welcoming him.
Stella had an amazing time with Ashlie and Phillip! They are very comfortable with large dogs and made me feel so at ease leaving my pet in their care. Their home is perfect with a fenced in backyard and the entire family is used to having dogs around. I received picture/updates and had a wonderful experience! I will definitely be using Ashlie and Phillip in the future!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Shrewsbury
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Shrewsbury on Rover is $42.18 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 .
As of July 2026, there are 1,087 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Shrewsbury. 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.
91% of Shrewsbury 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 Shrewsbury 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 Shrewsbury 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 Shrewsbury.
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 Shrewsbury 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 MO 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.
