“Julie was so welcoming and kind. We felt great leaving Monte with her. She sent us updates while we were gone for the day and Monte came home happy and worn out. ☺️”
“She was wonderful! We had to book our Pitt to stay with her over the week and she sent us photos while we were away of updated on our boy. He was picked up and dropped off super easily and professional! She was very accommodating to the late notice as well!”
“I am so appreciative of Crystal and her family! They went above and beyond to care for my whiny little dachshund with anxiety. He is an intense little guy who needs regular company. I received updates and pictures and he seemed so genuinely loved, well-cared for, and spoiled. I will absolutely book another sitting with Crystal when I need someone to watch him.”
“Chris did a great job taking care of our dog, Jefferson, and was available over Memorial weekend, which was so helpful. Throughout the 2-week stay, he provided pictures and updates to us. I would recommend his services to anyone looking for someone to take care of (and love) their pet.”
“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.”
“Pam is wonderful! I am a nervous mama when it comes to leaving my baby girl beagle. I have never left her with anyone that I don't know. Pam arranged for a Meet and Greet. My Shelby and I were both nervous at first but Pam sat with Shelby until she calmed down and introduced her beagles one at a time. I was particularly pleased to know that she only accepts one client at a time so my girl wouldn't be with anyone that I had not met before. Pam even delivered her back to me since she was coming my way and saved me a trip! I will definitely keep Pam and her 2 beagles as my #1 sitters for my precious Shelby!”
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.
100% of sitters in Carl Junction can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Carl Junction home-away-from-home, 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 Carl Junction.
<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 Carl Junction 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 , 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 .
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.
