“Teigan was amazing! My dog Blue can be a little anxious sometimes but she warmed right up to Teigan. She sent such cute pictures and videos and I appreciated that so much!!! Blue had a great time and I could tell when I picked her up that she loved her stay with Teigan. I’ll 100% be asking her to dog sit again ?”

“Julie was so kind and loved on our pups so well. Her home environment was very clean and safe. She was flexible and communicated well. I would definitely use her again for my penny and lucy!”

“Crystal was absolutely wonderful and amazing while taking care of my dad's dog for three days always kept me posted with messages and photos on how Jackie's day was and how she was enjoying her time with rose I would highly recommend her to watch my dogs or any other dog without a doubt in my mind.”
“Shania took great care of my dog while I was away for a few days. She was kind and easy to communicate with, and my dog seemed very happy and relaxed when I got back. I could tell she really loves animals and treated my dog like her own. I’ll definitely book with her again!”

“Stephanie watched our Miniature Schnauzer, Lily Belle, for five days. First time our girl has been boarded with someone other than family. From the first day we met Stephanie and her daughter's I knew Lily Belle would be in good hands. We dropped her off ona Tuesday evening and picked her up on the following Saturday evening. During those days Stephanie was great about keeping in touch with text messages and pictures. Her last picture was of Lily and her cat laying together, which is never thought would happen. I can only say if you want your pet cared for like they were home with you, you can't go wrong with Stephanie. We will definitely rebook.”


“This was my second time using Aisha as a sitter, “Bay-Bay” was so excited to see her again. Aisha even sent a photo to show me her comfortably passed out after playing with her fur friends. Will continue to book with Aisha in the future whenever she is available. First choice, every time.”
“So grateful for her flexibility and care. Samantha was kind and welcoming as we left out fur-son with her. We loved getting photos of all the fun and exercise he was having. We certainly felt less guilty leaving him behind on vacation because he looked like he was having such a great time with his new friends. I loved that he was in a home environment with other pets and just seemed like one of the family. I will 100% rebook with Samantha! My daughter adds: “Her dogs are super cute and friendly. I’m glad our dog had lots of fun with them.””

“Chloe is amazing!!! Jake was abused and abandoned before we adopted him in May. This is the first time we have left him. Upon entering Chloe‘s home it was obvious Jake immediately felt comfortable, safe and was treated like a member of the family and spoiled with his favorite things to do just like if he were at his own home. Until Chloe, Jake would only lay next to me. I was so happy when I received a picture of him so content laying next to Chloe. It was great knowing he was in such wonderful, caring hands. I highly recommend Chloe and I personally will only trust Jake with her. Such a wonderful couple with true love & joy for animals.”


“Sam and her husband are great! They took care of our Goldendoodle for a week. They kept in touch with us during the week with pictures and videos. We couldn’t have asked for a more caring family to watch our Izzy. We highly recommend them and will be using them the next time we leave town. Thank you again Sam for taking such good care of our fur baby.”

“Steven and Karin did a great job with my dog. They gave him lots of love and sent lots of pictures/updates. My pup had lots of fun. Their dog was super nice and was a great friend for my pup. They took any of my worries very seriously and went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable and my boy had a good experience. I will definitely be using them again in the future.”

“Nina was amazing. Tucker had a lot of fun with her. I’m sure he enjoyed a lot playing with her big and sweet dogs. She sent me pictures and was very responsive. And besides that he got home worn out, meaning that he burned a lot of his energy.”

“Ashley took great care of my two dogs at her kennel. The only thing I would mention is that I had assumed she was watching them at her house when I booked her, but it was really where she is a groomer, so the dogs were kept in a kennel except during play & potty breaks. There were several other animals there. You could tell Ashley loves animals & they did great in her care.”

About: I have owned dogs before I could even read. I have always loved dogs and have cared for a large variety of dogs, whether that be age, size, gender, or breed. I have such a love for dogs, I’ve considered becoming a dog trainer ever since I was a child. I’m not currently working, so I’m very flexible with reservations. Just let me know ahead of time and I can be very flexible with you! I remain consistent in their daily routines, especially for potty breaks. I am a huge advocate for positive reinforcement training, so I will make sure the dogs are recognized for doing good.
About: We are Kate and Cameron, the proud parents of a pack of doodles living in Baxter Springs, Kansas. We would love to care for your doggo at our loving, urban dog ranch. Our house sits on a ¼ acre corner lot that is fully privacy-fenced. There is plenty of shade from mature oak trees to play under, a water trough to splash in, many toys, chickens to watch (fenced off for safety), and a dog door for full access to the house when they are ready for lounging. We live next to Kiwanis Park, which has a lovely 1.5 mile walking loop. Cameron is a long-distance runner, and can offer running sessions for our friends with higher energy needs. Kate grew up in a veterinarian's home and has logged over 100 hours training dogs for therapy in schools. We have robust knowledge of dog health and behavior and can ensure that when you return, you will find your dog safe, happy, and tired! Let us care for your dog as one of our pack! We look forward to chatting about details if this sounds like your kind of set-up. We have three dogs, so we are constantly feeding, walking, petting, or playing with somebody. I’d say pet care is the hobby we spend most of our time on. We have a privacy fenced in yard, for safety. We have a doggie door, for convenience. We are happy to have a feeding schedule, for a little peace of mind if it’s requested.
“Samantha was THE BEST sitter I've ever had! I could tell in the daily pictures she sent of my dog that she was so happy and well cared for! I will definitely use Samantha in the future! Thank you again!”

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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Alba 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 Alba.
<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 Alba 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 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.
