“I have had wonderful experiences with Paula as my sitter for my 75lb boy, Jagger. She is very responsive with updates while I'm away. It has been a true comfort having someone so caring watch him while I'm away. I highly recommend her.”
“We can’t say enough good things about Leslie! She is our go-to dog sitter. We get lots of pix and texts about our fur baby, and she always goes the extra mile. Whether it’s making sure the back steps are protected so your dog doesn’t slip, or buying an extra can of pumpkin because you didn’t send enough, Leslie will make sure your dog is cared for in the same way she cares for her own dog.”
“Sarah was an absolute pleasure to work with. My pup was in great hands and thoroughly enjoyed his stay. I was kept up to date of their adventures with texts and photos, and never doubted that my boy was in good hands. Sarah will be my first choice in the future. Im so glad to have someone to trust and rely on to take care of my pup. Thank you so much Sarah!”
“Shaina and Imogen were great! We had a last minute booking and she was super accommodating. Finley loved her time over there! Will definitely be booking with her in the future!”
“Timmy was comfortable and well cared for while he was with Leslie. She has a wonderful park-like environment right out her front door and two cheerful, good natured cockers to make Timmy feel right at home. He is 14 years old and nearing the end of his life, and he did well while we were gone because of Leslie's big heart and service. She loves dogs, young or old, it is easy to see.”
“Reba was a great sitter! Very communicative and plenty of photos to let me know how my dog was doing. Reba has a great outdoor space for the dogs and cared for mine like one of her own. Will DEFINITELY be coming back.”
“Our 8 year old morkie had a blast with Judith during his 9 day stay with her. We loved getting updates on his stay multiple times per day, everyday. We forgot some parts of his food and Judith was nice enough to provide us with some healthy toppers for our pup’s meals. The environment and excitement provided by the neighborhood animal crew added for some great and safe entertainment for our dog. Would highly recommend!”
“Jennifer’s place is like a home away from home for my furbaby. She gets super excited every time we approach the street and she has a blast on every visit. Jennifer’s love for dogs really shines through.”
“We had such a great experience having our dog stay with Christine and David! They communicated with us every day and sent lots of updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was so fun seeing Cuba playing and having such a great time with their dog. It was clear that Cuba was having a blast. You can tell they truly care about the dogs they watch and treat them like their own. We came home to a very happy pup! We’ll definitely be booking with them again and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a thoughtful and reliable sitter. Thank you so much Christine & David (and Dory!)”
“First time having our dog stay with Adolfo and she was well taken care of with the love and attention she needed. Will definitely be using his services again!”
“Best sitter in the area!! Lilly is exhausted and she misses Smokey so much! We had to move our trip dates due extreme weather in Texas and she was totally fine with it. She took great photos and videos of Lilly playing with Smokey, Laronna is the best!!!”
“Jennifer was a pleasure to work with and I felt that our pup was in very good hands while we were out of town. Great communication and updates throughout the stay, and we could tell our dog was happy to be there too!”
“Booked Lucy the first time this weekend. She was amazing! She communicated so well! I have a dog that takes medication and she was on top of that. Her house is set up perfectly. I highly highly recommend. And I will be using Lucy again in the future.”
“Karen was awesome! I’m so happy I found a dog sitter I can trust. She’s not only good with dogs, but has a dog friendly environment that made my dog feel right at home. She also sent plenty of pics and kept me updated. Can’t wait to take a trip again and have a peace of mind knowing my dog is in good hands.”
“Evan and Kaleigh are amazing! I was delayed on the drop off day. They were so patient and encouraged me to take my time getting there. We received pictures and updates throughout the duration of our vacation and were playing with the dogs when I picked them up. My pups were so well taken care of that they barely greeted me, which I took as a great sign! Thank you Evan and Kaleigh for giving us the peace of mind during our vacation!”
“Erika watched our golden for a weekend on 2 days notice which was amazing in itself! She was very kind, communicated well and sent us pics of Ted while we were away. We can tell Teddy had fun too!”
“Sure! Here's a polished version of your message: --- Monica took absolutely wonderful care of my dog—truly as if he were her own. She was easy to coordinate with for drop-off and pick-up, sent great photos of him enjoying all his favorite activities, and provided thoughtful updates whenever I asked about how he was adjusting to a new environment and caregiver. I would recommend her without hesitation!”

Sarah did a great job taking care of my Lily over a long 4-day weekend. She provided lots of love and attention, and plenty of updates and photos while I was away. My dog came home happy, and calm, which is an excellent sign of good care. I would definitely recommend Sarah if you want your dog spoiled! And who doesn't want that?!!
This is our first time using Judy as our sitter and she was fantastic. She is very easy to work with and truly cares about the dogs she watches. We enjoyed our vacation knowing our little dachshund was given five star treatment. We would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter.
Ashlie and Phillip were great and we could tell Max did well. He’s on several medications and that didn’t seem to be a difficult thing for them to handle.. Max got plenty of exercise (play) and love from their entire family. Communication with photos was excellent and despite this being our first time with them, we were more than pleased and know Max will be visiting them again!
Shari provided a wonderful environment and loving care for our dog, Poppy. Poppy was relaxed at her home and excited to see Shari the second time we booked her. She sent us cute photos and updates and made us feel that Poppy was in the best hands. We will definitely book Shari again!
Katie is absolutely wonderful with Abby! She takes such great care of her, and we never have to worry when Abby stays with Katie. It gives us so much peace of mind knowing she is in such caring and capable hands. We also really appreciate the daily pictures and updates. It’s always reassuring to see Abby happy, comfortable, and enjoying her time. Katie treats her like one of her own, and we couldn’t ask for a better sitter. We highly recommend Katie to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their pup!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Shrewsbury is $42 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $56 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 1,080 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 routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
95% of sitters in Shrewsbury can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Shrewsbury home-away-from-home, 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 , 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 .
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.
