“Outlaw and Lola were well taken care of and had a great staycation. They made me feel at ease and treated the pups like family. Thanks for that. It’s important to me and the only way I can enjoy my time off. We will be back.”
“Jacqueline and her family were absolutely wonderful. I have a senior dog and a puppy they were very well cared for and I had no worries whatsoever. She went above and beyond.”
About: I have taken care of pets since I was 10 years old, including family pet care, professional pet care and personal pet care. I am experienced in dog walking, dog boarding, in home pet sitting and diabetic pets/sick pets. I have reliable transportation and am available at all times to give your pet the care they need! I am committed to being available at all times including weekends and evenings. Caring for animals is something I genuinely love, so it doesn’t feel like a task, it’s something I intentionally build into my schedule to make sure pets are happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I care for pets as if they were my own. I pay close attention to their individual routines, personalities, and needs, whether they’re in my home or a client’s home. This includes making sure they’re fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise, and receive lots of affection and attention. I love animals, so I genuinely enjoy spending time with them, playing, going for walks, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I also keep a close eye on their behavior and health, and I follow any specific instructions the owner provides to ensure their pet feels happy and well cared for while they’re away. As a diabetic dog owner myself I am committed to giving your pet the best care I can!
“MacKenzie did a wonderful job with my two large pups. I received lots of photos and updates throughout my trip. Sid and Mabel were excited to see me, but I don't think they were quite ready to leave just yet. Thank you for loving my babies while I was gone. Already planning our next play date!”
“Bridget did great watching my dog Maisy. She sent lots of pictures and noticed my dogs eyes get excessively crusty and made sure to keep them clean while I was gone.”
“Damonte was fantastic. Sent photos and videos of our little Ace. It’s comforting to know someone can take care of your furry friend like you would. Definitely recommend.”
“My dog needed special care for a medical condition. Not only did Kathleen make sure he got his medications but she gave him lots of love, sent me daily pictures and updates, and introduced him to doggie friends that he loved. I would definitely have Kathleen care for my pet again.”
“Chloe and Collin were recommended to me, and I’m very grateful for their hospitality. They extended Tucker’s stay for us due to an unforeseen circumstance, which we appreciate immensely.”
“Gail is THE BEST!! You can tell she really loves animals, especially the dogs. She made my Fredo feel very relaxed and at home under her care. She has a lovely home and makes all of the dogs she cares for very comfortable. I would use her again to watch Fredo. Fredo can't wait to go back to play with Sky! Thanks Gail.”
“She was fantastic and took great care Annie. Annie has special needs and was great at maintaining her medication schedule as well as giving her plenty of love. Thank you!!”
“Alaniz is very sweet and takes great care of my dog! It’s a peace of mind to find great loving care while we are away. My dog gets extremely excited every time he sees Alaniz 💕Awesome care!”
“Kristy and her family were awesome! My two pups were very well socialized with all of her pets, even my anxious girl became comfortable and seemed to enjoy her stay. Kristy gave them both special attention, even making them scrambled eggs one morning, and letting them cozy up on her bed. You can tell she is a true dog lover and understands what they need. She gave me lots of updates and photos to put my mind at ease!”
“Nicole was great! Super responsive, even on short notice, as we had just learned about Rover.com. We were able to set up our booking & begin it within a few hours. Received pictures & reassuring texts from Nicole periodically through the entire booking. Will definitely use her in the future!”
“Lona and Alan were amazing at watching my baby! They have wonderful ideas and games for mental stimulation. They make sure to get all the details and preferences for caring for your pet, and are on top of sending updates multiple times a day so you don’t worry. I have no doubt for any future trips I’ll take that my dog will be in great hands!”
“Angelica was great to work with. We had a pre-meeting at her home to introduce my dog to her pets. She made sure her pets were secure when we arrived for drop off and gave my dog time to settle in. She sent regular updates and pics. She even sent us home with a clean dog pen. Will definitely use Angelica again and recommend her highly!”
“This was our first time using this service, and I am so glad I found Taylor! We were very hesitant with the idea of leaving our dog with a stranger, but Taylor's reviews and her prompt answers to my numerous questions, we were quickly put us at ease. We received daily updates and pictures, and it was obvious to us that Moose was having the best time and was well cared for. Before we picked him up, I had already reached out to Taylor to rebook with her for an upcoming trip!”

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.
91% of Buckner 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 Buckner 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 Buckner 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 Buckner.
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 Buckner 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.
