“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.”

“We feel so fortunate that we found Sharon and her husband to take care of our baby on such short notice. We boarded her at her vet's for our last trip and she came home sick with a virus. So..needless to say we were concerned about where she could go this time. Luckily I heard about Rover through a family member. Checked it out. Found Sharon. Who will love your dog and make them feel at home. Thanks again Sharon. Karma will miss you ????”

“Stevie was EXCELLENT & we're excited about using her again. We came home from our overnight vacation feeling relaxed & inspired and our little dog Baby did too. After spending time with Stevie she was so chill, none of her usual anxiety & the socialization with other people & dogs was a real plus for our Baby. Much appreciate the info & tips Stevie shared to help improve Babys well being & health.”

“Jacqueline was absolutely wonderful! She took such great care of my fur baby, was super flexible, and was in constant communication with me about how he was doing! 100% recommend her to anyone who needs a good dog sitter!”

“Bridget was wonderful with our Frodo & Arwen. She kept us updated and sent plenty of playtime pictures of our pups and a couple with their new friends. We will be back next time we are in need of a sitter.”

“Katie took amazing care of our girl Maisey while we were away for 2 weeks. Each day we received great photos and videos of all her puppy hangouts, walks, and cuddles. Katie was so sweet and caring it really helped us feel comfortable away from our pup for so long. We can tell she loved all her time during her stay, especially playing with Sprout! Can’t recommend Katie enough.”

“Daisy seemed to have a great time with Mackenzie! Very well at communicating and sending photos! When I picked her up she was bathed and even had a bandana on her! Mackenzie took very well of my doggie. Will book with her again!”

“Kristy is an awesome person, with humans and with pets! 😀 My 2 fur babies had a great time at her house. She’s so kind, caring and attentive. I will definitely contact her again when I need someone to care for my 2 dogs. Thank you Kristy!”


“Catherine took great care of our puppy and her pups are the sweetest! She made sure our pup got to meet her and her dogs in advance and our pup was excited to go stay which is great since she’s a little shy. We’ll definitely have Mabel go stay again!”


“Gail was very accommodating for my two dogs. She sent daily updates and pictures to put me at ease. My older dog Marble has anxiety and I knew she would take a few days to settle down. Gail assured me that she was doing ok. Ginger is a puppy and very high maintenance. I am glad she made friends to play with.”
“If you are looking for one of the best dogsitters, look no further, Ashley is it! I truly feel like our boy, Oreo, was well taken care of and I would trust leaving him with Ashley again and again. Oh and her dog, Diega, what a sweetheart and the perfect playmate for our boy. Thank you again, Ashley!!! ❤️”

“Our dog had a great time while we were away! She was well taken care of and we received pictures each day of her enjoying the children and household. We will book again with Chloe.”

“Lona and Alan were great with my 110 lb St Bernard mix Ralph, and I have nothing but the nicest things to say about how they treated him. I received pictures throughout the entire week and felt like I was right there with him. I knew that he was in good hands at all times!”

“Gunner was very well cared for by Nicole and her family. This was my first experience using Rover and I was very pleased. Gunner will definitely be visiting Nicole again in the future!”

“Incredible! Griffin planned fun events for our pup and gave plenty of updates. Made for an easy trip knowing Andy was well cared for. Highly recommend!”

“Taylor is wonderful! She sends photo updates of the dogs while we’re away, and the dogs always come back happy and well taken care of! Will definitely use her again :)”

“Derrika was great. She took great care of our Charlie, was great with drop off and pickups, and excellent with providing updates and communication. What a blessing it is to have a safe loving home for our little guy when we’re away. Gives us great peace of mind that he’s well taken care of and loved.”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Buckner on Rover is $41.63 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 875 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Buckner. 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.
90% 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.
