“Chelsea did a fabulous job taking care of our dog. We also appreciated her quick communication and willingness to watch our dog as a last minute booking and to add on a day when we wanted to extend our trip. Highly recommend.”
“Madison was wonderful and flexible. First, we were able to modify our dates before the trip. Second. We ran into traffic on our way home and Madison was able to watch our dog for extra tune until we got home. We got picture updates and our dog was happy.”
About: Ive grown up with a variety of pets. I love animals, and enjoy taking care of them and keeping them happy while they’re missing you! I have a cleaning business that keeps my weekly schedule flexible, but varied. My availability is not always the same each week but it gives me a more flexible schedule than some. I’m happy to care for your pet however you would do so normally to keep them in their routine. At home I have other pets they can play with or they can remain separated. I have plenty of yard for them to enjoy.
“We had a great experience with Mariah! She took amazing care of Goose and kept us updated with thoughtful, detailed messages the entire time, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear she really paid attention to his routine, behavior, and little quirks. Goose got plenty of exercise, attention, and care, and we came home to a happy (and tired!) pup. We would absolutely trust her to watch Goose again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“Mary Jane took great care of my foster dog Eclipse while I was out of town! I'm so glad she had new doggie friends to play with was able to meet cats. They have a great yard for the dogs to play in, and Eclipse had her very own cozy room to relax during the day and at night. Thank you Mary Jane!”
“Celsei did a great job with our cat Apollo. She sent regular pictures and had a good process for helping him get acquainted with her house. We will definitely have Apollo go back to her if we ever need to board him again!”
“Maddie had such a good time with Isabella! She was so gentle and caring, and made sure Maddie got plenty of walks and attention. I highly recommend her- she'll take great care of your pets and put your mind at ease.”
“My dog took to Alex immediately, I was amazed when my dog didn't even bark at Alex when he first met him as he usually takes some time to warm up to strangers but my dog had an instant bond with Alex who is an obvious dog lover ! Alex was just superb ,Alex sent me twice daily updates with pictures and comments as to how Paco was doing...my dog made friends quickly with Alex's two dogs and appears to have had very little separation anxiety..I could not have asked for a better experience and I highly recommend Alex to take care of your fur baby...Thanks Alex”
“Trista took great care of our dogs! We have a high energy 5 month puppy and a 3 year old small dog. We were nervous about boarding them or sending them somewhere but Trista did amazing with them! We got updates daily on how the dogs were doing and they seemed to really enjoy their time with her family. Will definitely be using her again next time we leave town!”

“Katie was amazing with our great pyr! Super flexible with drop off/pick up times. She even brushed out our baby girl after three weeks of camping (oh the Swiffer tail is real!!!!). She was one tired fluff when we picked her up. Highly recommend if you need someone to watch your fur baby 🥰”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Spencer on Rover is $37.21 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 104 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Spencer. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter 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.
Sitters may also include daily walks in the neighborhood during your dog's boarding stay. You can also request photo and message updates throughout so you can see which local 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 Spencer 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 Spencer.
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 Spencer 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.
