It was founded on May 30, 1802 by the settlers from the town of Dobry (now the village of Dobroye) as the village of Dobrinskiye Vyselki (До́бринские Вы́селки). In 1869, the Gryazi–Borisoglebsk railway was built, and the station of that railway located in the vicinity of the village was also named Dobrinka. By the beginning of the 20th century, the village and the station grew and merged.

In 1967, Dobrinka merged with the village of Chuyevka and was granted urban-type settlement status, which it held until 2005.
