“My dog returned from Alejandra's good care happy and exhausted. She cared for him well, entertained him, provided lots of playtime with other dogs, and kept me up to date. She was also very accommodating when I found my flight plans cancelled due to bad weather. It was reassuring to know that she would not leave my dog in the lurch!”
“We loved having Jennifer & Larry watch our two girls. They sent us pictures and updates 2x a day. And our girls were really happy with being able to explore inside and outside as they had access to go outside on their own. 100% will ask them to watch our girls again.”
“Leandra and Mark did an amazing job with our puppy. They are so personal with clients. They took such good care of our baby. I definitely will book again. Their availability is great especially for a puppy. They love playing with the puppy. They treated our puppy like he was their own. I look forward to them watching him again soon!”
“Chris has done doggy day care with Walter before, but this was the first time I had to leave my pup for so long! Walter came back happy and healthy, and Chris was super great about updating me on his progress and sending the cutest photos!! Thank you Chris!!”
“Lynn is an absolute Godsend! She provided me multiple updates daily including photos. She offered food and health recommendations as well as resources to review and research. Lynn pampered and spoiled ChiChi during our nearly weeklong vacation. I would trust her with my own life, not just my dog’s life. She’s that darn good! I will only use her from now on and recommend her to anyone needing a pet sitter!! Thank you again Lynn!!! 🫶🏼”
“Josie was amazing with my stubborn loving Bulldog! I can tell he had a great time and really bonded with her! He will definitely come back! Thank you for also taking care of me by sending his daily pictures!”
“Andrew did a good job with my quirky little Maltese mix. He's clearly a dog lover and my Cooper seemed to fit right in. Appreciated the occasional picture or video. I will definitely use Andrew in the future.”
“Jamie really helped us out by taking in Buddy on short notice allowing us to meet the sweet newest addition to our family. We could tell he had a very good time based on falling asleep immediately on the drive home. She was very good at communication. Highly recommend.”
“Katelin was wonderful with our 3 yr old corgi poo Lucy while we were out of town! We received photos of her regularly and loved that she and her family were so interactive with her. Lucy was well taken care of, we are grateful! Thank you Katelin!”

“Lindsay is the absolute best! It was our first time leaving our pup with someone for a long weekend. Safe to say he didn’t even miss us and had the time of his life playing at Lindsay’s house. She was super communicative about drop-off and pick-up and gave us updates everyday along with plenty of pictures and videos. Thank you Lindsay! We will be back!”
“Paul & Kelly took excellent care of Dewey and were easy to work with. I came over before my trip for a meet & greet and they were very reassuring. I got regular updates & pictures. Dewey loved the big yard & got lots of gentle attention & play time from the Boys.”
“Betty is the best! We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing Lucy was in good hands. When we picked up Lucy, she literally cried twice when Betty walked away from her to gather up her supplies. We love that our dog is so attached to her. <3 There is no better endorsement! We've used Betty's services several times now and wouldn't choose anyone else. Highly recommended.”
“She made him very comfortable and at home. He was able to play and roam in the house and outside, with her well behaved dogs. I was very pleased with his care and plan on having Kathy watch him in the future.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Wakarusa on Rover is $39.85 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 142 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Wakarusa. 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.
100% of Wakarusa 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 Wakarusa 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 Wakarusa 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 Wakarusa.
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 Wakarusa 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.
