“Jasmine was amazing! She watched my puppy for a few days and made the whole experience stress-free. Her communication was amazing, she kept me updated the entire time, which really put my mind at ease. Best of all, my pup clearly loved being with her, he literally didn’t want to leave! That’s always the best sign. Highly recommend and will definitely book with her again!”

“I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! She took excellent care of Roscoe and treated him like he was her own. She kept me updated throughout my time away with messages and pictures of my sweet pup, which gave me so much peace of mind and made me smile. It was obvious that Roscoe was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. She was reliable, caring, and went above and beyond. I would absolutely trust her to watch Roscoe again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable and compassionate to care for their pets. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of my sweet boy! ❤️🐾”

“Monica and Daniel are very wonderful people who take excellent care of our furry baby! Right off the bat when we first met them we got an excellent first impression. They are very warm and friendly and were great with our pet! They play with her and take her for walks. When we came home after our weekend away our pet was relaxed and happy. During our time away, they sent us photos and updates of our baby which was really nice ? I look forward to booking them again in the future!! Even my 7 y.o. son likes them too and told me that we should leave our pet again with them next time. Thanks for doing such a great job, keep up the great work!! ❤”

“Shawne and her husband were very welcoming and ready for the dogs upon arrival. They were receptive to the dogs' routines and ready with kennels. They have outdoor space and live in a nice neighborhood. Shawne was really great at keeping us updated with texts and pictures. The boys were happy and had so much fun that they were exhausted when we got them back from all of the fun activities.”

Jesus has a wonderful personality, and my dogs seem to love him. When I picked up my poodle Jesus had given him a bath, his bed was washed, and he was happy. I could not have picked a better person to keep my poodle. Jesus is the best of the best and my poodle enjoyed his time with Jesus and his family!”

About: I've grown up living with dogs and have been the primary trainer for my family's dogs. I do pretty well working with new pets and can handle full size dogs. I'm an engineer who gets home from work around 4 or 5PM. My weekends are empty 3/4 weekends a month. I can do overnights on Sunday and during the work week if your dog is used to being alone 9-5. I have a small yard, and live next to the beach. I typically walk my dog to the beach 2-3 times a day on the weekend and she swims often. I usually use a harness to walk dogs, never leave them unattended outside since I have no fence. Make sure they have food twice a day and water always full.

Juliana took such good care of my Benito! Her communication was great and you can tell she truly is an animal lover. I would definitely recommend her! Thank you for caring for my Benito! 🫶🏽🐈‍⬛”

About: I've been taking care of dogs & cats my entire life. I have experience as a vet assistant. Animals are my passion and not only do I love providing a loving home for my animals but I also know how hard it is to balance work and life in general when you have pets so I want to be able to care and help you with your fur babies as well! I'm currently only working part time so I have a lot of free time to care for your fur babies ! My schedule is pretty open so on my days off I can take last minute requests . I also enjoy being outdoors even if it's just sitting in the backyard with the dogs I have a fenced in yard with a loving yellow Labrador ! Your pup will have fun and will stay safe with plenty of exercise! I do not go on walks without a leash or without your consent.

Thanks for taking care of my puppy and going above and beyond!!!”

FAQs for Pet Boarding - Valparaiso

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Valparaiso on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

There are 211 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Valparaiso. About 91% of Valparaiso 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. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.
