I was initially hesitant about booking a doggy daycare, especially after hearing various rumors and fearing the worst. However, I must say that I was thoroughly impressed with the daycare I chose. It truly exceeded my expectations. My dog, Coco, showed immense love and care for Miss Shantanice, who was very happy and content in her care. I am grateful that I found Miss Shantanice during my time of need and will definitely book her whenever I require doggy daycare services. If you want your dog to be loved and cared for, I highly recommend Miss Shantanice.”
“Our dog took to Cristina, and it made me feel at ease the way Cristina interacted with our dog. She was personable, and my dog came home tired from her stay, which is a good thing for us. We would absolutely use Cristina again!”
“Ashlyn was amazing! She has a beautiful home in a beautiful neighborhood that’s close to downtown KC and amazing parks, it was very convenient to drop Snowy off every day while I played in a tennis tournament. She sent photo’s every day, I’ll absolutely book with her again if I’m in town.”
About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs since I was a little girl. I’m the owner of two fur babies with our oldest being with us for the past 13 years. I’m comfortable with taking care of new puppies or senior pets and can administer meds as needed. I’m currently working from home so I’ll have plenty of time to spend with your fur baby, walking them and playing with them throughout the day. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs, a Pomeranian and a golden doodle who love new friends. I can easily crate your pet if needed.
About: I am available for drop ins over the holidays! I have spent my entire life around animals! I have extensive experience with cats, dogs, and horses, as well as some experience with small pets, including rabbits, ferrets, and aquarium animals. I am certified in Cat & Dog first aid through the Red Cross, and I have previously worked full-time at a doggy daycare and boarding facility, so I have plenty of experience with all different types of dogs. I am also comfortable administering oral and topical medications, and have limited experience with injected medications. My schedule tends to be very flexible; however, I appreciate requests made well in advance. Please be aware that on a typical day I am ONLY available in the mornings and evenings, not at midday. I have experience taking care of many anxious pets, so I always work hard to make sure that each animal is as comfortable and happy as they can be! During walks, that means sniffing if they want to sniff and running if they want to run. I do not interact with other dogs or people on walks, no matter the friendliness/reactivity level of your dog, to keep yours as safe as possible.
About: We love dogs, and after a short break while renting, we're thrilled to be back in business now that we once again have a fenced yard and the space to give dogs the care, attention, and spoiling they deserve! We're experienced in administering medications and caring for older dogs or those who need a little extra support, and we're happy to follow your dog's specific routines and care instructions. I work from home on Monday and Friday. My office is 10 minutes away so I can come home at lunch time on Tuesday-Thursday for those who need more frequent potty breaks. I have a fenced backyard with lots of shade for those who prefer prolonged sniffing and lounging. For tiny guests I have an inflatable collar so they can't wander between my metal fence posts. If your dog loves walks, we have quiet neighborhood sidewalks and nearby walking trails. I feed all dogs separately and can provide a separate area for a dog who may be feeling uncomfortable with other guests. I have experience giving medications, shots, and caring for older dogs or those who need a little extra support.
About: I am a certified vet assistant from PIMA Medical Institute of Seattle, and I worked at a dog daycare for three years. I care for almost any senior or puppy! I am currently doing dog walks, daycare and boarding! I am pretty flexible as long as you communicate your needs. I also have transportation for dogs! I own my home, but I have an emotional support dog whom has years of experience being with other dogs to keep your pet company.
“Jamie was prompt in her response to my initial inquiry and we were able to set up a meet and greet right away. Her home is lovely, clean, and has a fenced in backyard. She spoke so highly of my puppy and it really made me feel like she cared about her. She spent time training her every day and adhered to the schedule I provided for structure. She set up play dates to socialize my puppy as she doesn’t have any pets in her home. She went above and beyond training on concepts I hadn’t introduced to my puppy yet. She was thorough in our initial meet and even recapped with me at the end of the week. Her daily recaps shared so much info about my puppies day and I loved hearing about everything they did together and how much she enjoyed her time with my puppy. Jamie is a stellar caregiver, accommodating of my schedule, loving towards my puppy, and great with communication.”
About: I’ve taken care of my dogs since I was a teenager! I usually take care of friend’s and family’s dogs as well. Dogs are usually pretty easy going to get along. I work remotely and have plenty time to stay with the animals. I also spend my night at home home. Half of the week I have my 6 year daughter with me. I live in an apartment. I don’t have I backyard but I we have a big green are so the dogs can walk and play.
“Stephanie provided excellent care for Elvis during his daycare! She sent me pictures of him throughout the day. I will be booking with her again!”
“Andrea and her family did an incredible job of taking care of our old doggie. She kept us informed, sent pictures and was all around great! I would recommend Andrea to anyone who needs a dog sitter.”
About: Please claim a a spot for the holidays early :) I have 2 years of dedicated pet care experience looking after a variety of breeds. I focus on creating a safe, fun, and stress-free environment for your pets while you are away. I love providing long walks, plenty of playtime, and lots of individual attention. Because I dedicate myself to pet care full-time, my schedule is completely open and flexible. I am fully available for overnight boarding, weekend stays, and daytime visits, ensuring I can perfectly match your pet's normal daily schedule. I love taking care of animals, and nothing is more important to me than making sure every single pet feels loved and safe. I have a secure fenced yard for outdoor playtime and can easily take your pet on long walks if needed. For pets who aren't well with other pets, I will make sure to reserve those days for ONLY that pet. Every animal deserves to be comfortable. I only accept pets that are friendly and comfortable around other dogs during bookings that require more than one pet. NOTE: For safety reasons, I cannot accept pets that are aggressive or lash out at people. Safety is my top priority, and I reserve the right to decline bookings if a pet is not a good fit.
About: I have had pets since I was about 10 years old. After losing my last couple of dogs to age and terminal illness, we have taken on the approach of fostering over another adoption currently. Eventually we will be adding more furry family members but right now loving on all the other doggies is where we are at ❤️ I currently work from home full time so I am home for full time direct care. I have two daughters part time Monday and Tuesday and every other weekend who are also experienced as I have fostered big breed dogs on and off the last 5 years. I work from home and am available almost always. It is always either just me, me and my boyfriend or all of us and my 2 littles. I do not have a fenced yard as I am in a townhouse currently. But my boyfriend does have 3 acres of land we can go visit for extra run around time if travel less than 30 min is allowed.
“I have been using Lindsey for a couple of months now for my two year old golden retriever and she is amazing. She has the best yard and always has friendly dogs for mine to play with. Her communication and accommodation is awesome.”

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 Edwardsville 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.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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 KS 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 774 sitters in Edwardsville, 87% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
