“My husband and I felt so comfortable leaving our pup with Rocio! She provided tons of pictures and communicates throughout the day if needed. Will definitely be rebooking in the near future. Thanks again. :)”
About: I’ve had dogs from a young age. Staying with me, they will get attention, love, play time and cuddles. They will also get to play with my dog Lexi. I work from home full time so I’m always here. I’m able to go outside and play with your pups or give them extra attention. I have a fenced in yard with locks on my gates. I have a doggie door and the back door is always open. I have a 5 year old pup that is very calming and caring. She has been great with other dogs. She is very nurturing and always makes sure those in her space are safe. I have a couple of stories I can provide about her. I am very hands on and constantly checking on my girl and will do the same for your furbaby. Safety is very important to me, not only for your furbaby but for myself and my furbaby as well.
About: As an experienced dog sitter, what sets me apart is my personalized approach to care. I take the time to get to know each dog's unique personality and needs, providing tailored attention and affection to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I also prioritize open communication with owners, sending regular updates and photos to keep them informed and reassured that their fur baby is in good hands. I’m a stay at home mom so I structure my schedule around the needs of the dogs in my care, making sure they receive the attention, exercise, and socialization they require. Whether it's going for long walks, playing fetch, or cuddling on the couch, I always make sure to provide a fun and stimulating experience for each dog. I have a commitment to providing personalized attention to each dog in my care. I take the time to get to know their unique personalities, preferences, and needs, ensuring they receive the best possible care.
“This was our first time using Christine for doggy daycare and I couldn’t be happier! She’s extremely communicative — sending thoughtful updates and pictures throughout my shift — which really put my mind at ease. Christine went above and beyond to make buddy and I feel comfortable. It’s clear she truly cares about the dogs she watches, and we’re so grateful for the wonderful experience. Highly recommend!”
About: I have had pets all my life from dogs and cats to gerbils, hamsters and fish. Even as a young child I was primarily responsible for most of the routine daily pet care. I'm a trained CNA with applicable caregiving skills. I also have extensive experience as a shelter volunteer having walked the dog and played with them as well as socializing the cats. I'm currently self employed as a home care aide and wish to take care of animals in between assignments or during days off. I do not have any responsibilities that would interfere with me taking care of your fur babies. I do not have a fenced in yard but I do have a yard stake. I live in a townhouse with an open grass backyard. I regularly take my dog to The Liberty, MO Stockdale dog park and can take yours there too if that's your preference. If you wish I can walk your dog as many times per day as you prefer. My neighborhood has paved sidewalks and walking paths that I routinely use to walk my dog daily. I have one cat and one dog and each get along with other cats and dogs very well but should there be any unforeseen issue, I can put your pet in my spare bedroom. I also own a wire dog crate for large dogs. I can crate your pet in your home or my home if you wish me to. I will take care of him or her in whichever way you prefer. I do not crate my dog but I did as a puppy to facilitate his potty training. My dog sleeps with me at night as does my cat sometimes. Both are friendly and well socialized but again, I can put either in a spare room or your pet if necessary. Both my pets are up to date on their vaccinations and they get a monthly pill for flea and tick prevention. I can do everything from long or short walks, taking them outside for potty breaks, administering food or medicine, playtime, etc.
“Amanda was great, we went and did a visit. The visit went very well and her dog was very friendly and has a large backyard to run in. Amanda was very informative about the daycare that is provided and she would send videos during the day if you wanted.”
About: I’m a dog person. I love them, and they love me. I’ve have had dogs all my life. Im retired and I travel, and it just became too expensive to take care of my own dog. I thought about fostering dogs, but knew I would end up wanting to keep them. This seemed like the perfect answer…I love to walk, and walk all over the city… so just combining my two loves… walking and dogs. Im retired, but very active, and completely flexible to accommodate your schedule. I volunteer at the Kauffman Performing Arts Center. Caring for pets and the Kauffman Center are my primary obligations. I’m in an apartment, so we would take walks. I would quickly get to know their personality. I would play and be affectionate with your dog.
About: I have dogs, puppies, kittens experience since 9 years old. I'm a very loving, protective, clean sitter. You can trust me in any situation. I am currently on summer break from school, I am available anytime of the day. I am very organized and if I sign up to work I will always make it on time. I'm very clean, it's safe where I live and it's running water, air conditioning, WiFi, food, I provide as much care as possible for guests and animals.
About: I've taken care of cats and dogs since I was 13. I'm 35. There's plenty of space in the house and a fenced in yard. I am currently staying home for the summer with my 4 year old son. We will be home full time! Let us help with your fur baby! I have a fenced in yard and a basement if the animal needs space. We will take the dogs out regularly. They will be safe and loved here.
About: I've been fostering the last few years and have experience with all sizes and types of dogs. I'm great with puppies and seniors. Our daily routine is consistent and calm. I love getting out for walks and spending a some time in the backyard a few times a day. I work from home and can provide potty breaks as needed. If I have to be out it will be between 1 and 4 hours. We have a good routine at our house of getting out for a walk or backyard sniff session every morning and evening. I work from home, have a fenced in yard and a very calm home environment. I have a 35 lb dog, Charlie who sleeps all day. We live in a quiet neighborhood that's great for walks. If I go out it's usually about 1 or 2 hours and rarely up to 4 hours. If I have more than one dog, I never leave them in the same space while I'm gone... or when feeding. I'm a small human :) 5 ft tall so while I'm happy to take larger dogs they do need to be leash trained for their safety and mine. Puppies need to be crate trained for their safety too.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since I was a young child. Growing up, my family always had multiple dogs and cats. I grew up learning how to take care of them anytime my parents were out of town. I have experience taking care of dogs of all types, from young to old, and from big to small. I’m a middle school music teacher, meaning I have a wide open schedule all summer! I’m a teacher, meaning I have the summers off! I’m available to care for your pets while you’re on a summer vacation or if you just need someone to take your dog for a walk while you’re at work. During the summer, I have a very open availability schedule. I have three pets in my home, 2 cats and 1 dog. I am a very astute pet parent, always making sure the areas around the house are clean and safe for them. I take my dog, Percy, on walks often. I am very comfortable taking dogs on walks, crating them if they need to be, and playing with them so they don’t get bored at home.
About: I have worked at vet clinics and grooming day care facilities since I was young and have a variety of animal experience. Rest assured your pets will be in good hands with me. I currently make my own schedule for work and much of my work is at home so your pets will have lots of attention and care while they stay for boarding at my house. I also have pets myself so taking care of your pets and mine is of the up most priority. I care for your pets just as I would care for mine I consider them part of my family. Comfort, stress management, and safety are always emphasized. I will customize the care as needed and work with you to make sure your furry friend feels at home.
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was just 7 years old. My passion is caring for others. I know how to work with dogs with emotional and behavioral issues. I know how to handle dogs even big dogs that pull on the leash. I can help keep training consistent. I run a home daycare and help care for my mom and homeschool my autistic 16 yo son. So I have a lot of time, room and love to give your doggies. I do have a dog and 2 cats of my own that don't get along so I have to switch out their living room social time and will ensure your animals has some social time as well. I am able to care for 3 more dogs at a time. I have a large basement with an unfinished room that I put a baby gate up for the door and I have 2 kennels. If I have 3 dogs at once I will rotate the dogs out to make sure that one does not have to stay in a kennel too long. I will ensure your doggy always has food and water available and frequent bathroom breaks with plenty of love and social time. I have a semi big yard with a 20 foot tie down lead to ensure your dog has enough room to run around but won't get away. I also have a small plastic kiddie pool I fill up for the doggies to get in and enjoy!
About: I am a dog owner myself and love spoiling my little guys and going to the dog park. I have taken both my dogs through dog training at petsmart. I have a 5 foot metal fenced back yard that the dogs can romp around in. There is a doggy door for small dogs to access the back yard when ever they want. I enjoy dog sitting and will treat them like they are my own.

We are constantly at the dog park or going on walks and would love to take your fury friend with us!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Avondale
I booked James to watch my dog Gatsby for a week of doggy day care. Gatsby has separation anxiety, and at our point in his healing from this condition we really needed a person who could be with him during the whole time at doggy day care. James was able to help with this. James has been a tremendous help during this time and would recommend him for any pet owners dealing with SA. He was communicative and provided medication for us. He also provides pictures and is communicative about when he is taking care of your pet.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Avondale is $44 per day as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $29 and $73 per day. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 679 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Avondale. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Avondale commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
As of November 2026, there are 679 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of MO. Enter your address or desired location to see which available sitters are closest to you.
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.
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.
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
