“This is our first time using Rover and Mo and we are SO impressed! Mo and her family were so kind and sent us photos of our pups during their stay! She stayed in communication with us the whole time and my dogs had the most amazing time! We can’t wait to use Mo again in the future!”
“This was our second time using Cristina and she was absolutely amazing with our two fur babies. She sent us daily pictures and updates. It’s such a relief to know we’re leaving our pups in good hands! She’s our go-to sitter!”
“Susan was great! She kept us informed and sent many pictures. She and her family kept our pups happy and well entertained. Thanks for taking such great care of our golden girls!”
“Jessica and her girls were great to my Lucy and Otis. Jessica sent daily update photos twice a day, morning and evening. She was just the right amount of communicative and provided a great sense of safety while we were away on a trip for five days. Her doggy Rain seemed like a great companion to also get some needed socialization for our Lucy who just loves being around other younger pups. Overall, I would recommend Jessica and her girls to anyone needing a safe place to keep their pups in the KC metro area.”
“Karrie was fantastic with my dog, Mac, over the Fourth of July weekend. Fireworks are always stressful for him, but she made sure he was comfortable, cared for, and felt safe throughout his stay. It gave me a lot of peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands while I was away. She was communicative, attentive, and treated Mac like he was her own. I wouldn't hesitate to book with Karrie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will genuinely care for their pet.”
“Kaiya did great and loved the extra attention and buddies to play with. I also really appreciated Kelly's flexibility with our schedule. Would happily book again!”
“As a "dog mom" I couldn't leave my 12 year old Boston with just anybody, so I tried to be as careful as possible when choosing someone to look after her during my work trip. From our initial meet-and-greet, I knew Mia was in good hands. Aaron was prompt, communicative, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. Mia was happy and healthy when we returned, and the detailed updates and photos I received put my worries aside. Special thanks to Mazer who allowed her in his home for 5 days, he is a gentle soul and helped Aaron take care of her. What a great team!”
“Anna and the crew were great with Timothee. I felt like he got an amazing Pack experience with them and gained a few social skills along the way. These guys know how to manage a group of dogs and if that's what you are seeking - look no further!! They have plenty of space and lots of room to run!! We'll be back for more "dog camp" in the future!!”
“Stephanie was quick responder and saved us from a very stressful last minute cancellation from another sitter. She sent lots of pics and updates from the weekend, putting as at ease. Would highly recommend her! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Bubba was very happy and content when we picked him up. He was tired from all the activity and play. A very positive experience for us and was the first experience for us using Rover. Nate was great with Bubba and flexible also to meet some extra requests extending our sitting needs .”
About: As a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet owner, I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment where your dog feels right at home. I have experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities, as well as cats. Beyond caring for my own pets, I've worked with rescue organizations as a foster, helping dogs transition into loving forever homes. That experience has given me patience, confidence, and the ability to care for pets with a variety of temperaments and needs. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply relaxing on the couch, I'll tailor their care to match their routine. I'm comfortable with feeding schedules, administering basic medications if needed, maintaining exercise routines, and providing plenty of love and attention while you're away. I work with a flexible schedule, allowing me to provide attentive care throughout the day rather than leaving pets alone for extended periods. You'll also receive regular updates and photos, so you can relax knowing your furry family member is happy, safe, and well cared for. I know every pet is unique, and I look forward to getting to know yours and treating them like one of my own. Every dog's ideal day looks a little different, and I do my best to match their routine so they feel right at home. Because I work from home, your dog will have plenty of companionship throughout the day instead of being left alone for long periods. Mornings typically start with a potty break, breakfast (if that's part of their schedule), and some playtime or a walk. Throughout the day, dogs can relax inside our spacious home, enjoy supervised time in our fenced backyard, or play with my two friendly dogs if they enjoy canine companionship. My older dog, Colby, is calm and loves to lounge around, making her a great companion for senior or more relaxed dogs. Swiss is younger, playful, and always happy to have a buddy to run around with. Whether your dog prefers to play or simply nap in a sunny spot, they'll have a companion that matches their energy level. The evenings are all about more outdoor time, cuddles, dinner, and winding down before bed. My goal is for every dog to feel like they're on their own little vacation while you're away. Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priorities. My home provides a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment with plenty of room to relax and explore. We have a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play, stretch their legs, and enjoy supervised outdoor time. Inside, there's plenty of space for dogs to spread out, nap, or simply be part of the family. I carefully introduce new dogs to my own pets to ensure everyone is comfortable. My two resident dogs are well-trained, friendly, and accustomed to sharing their home with visiting dogs through my rescue and fostering experience. Because I work from home, I'm able to provide frequent potty breaks, monitor playtime, and give each dog the attention they deserve throughout the day. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, young, or a senior, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved during their stay. I understand that every pet has unique routines and preferences, and I'm happy to accommodate feeding schedules, medications, favorite toys, and any special instructions to help them feel right at home.
“This was my first time leaving Lucy with a sitter like this, so I was definitely a little anxious. Melissa made the whole experience really easy and kept me updated while I was gone. Lucy came home happy and well taken care of, and I felt like she was in good hands the whole time. I’d definitely trust Melissa with Lucy again!”
“First time Rover user. Shelly was great with our dog. Great communication with us while out of town. Shelly offered continued care for Duke while we were delayed with an emergency. We will definitely have Shelly watch Duke again!”
“What a wonderful family! They treated our dog like their own and made us feel so comfortable that she was well taken care of while we were gone. We loved all the pictures and videos they shared!”

Lizmarie made me feel comfortable and assured that my dogs were in good hands! She was always very responsive, helpful, and friendly. She was happy to set up a meet and greet with us so my dogs could become familiar with her prior to boarding, sent us lots of photos and videos, and made sure my dogs felt right at home. I was so happy to see how much fun my dogs had going on walks, playing with her sweet dog, and getting lots of pets and snuggles. Lizmarie is very capable and caring, and even helped work with our dog about not pulling on his leash! When our flight home was delayed, she was extremely accommodating and even offered to drop our dogs off at our home. It was great knowing our dogs had a safe and fun vacation with her while we had a vacation of our own. I would be happy to board my dogs with Lizmarie again!
We had such an amazing experience with Richard. Leaving our dog behind is always stressful, but he sent the best daily updates and photos that put us completely at ease! Samson was so happy and well looked after the whole time. We will absolutely be booking with Richard again."

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Edwardsville on Rover is $36.63 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 1,158 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Edwardsville. About 92% of Edwardsville sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be.

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 pet, 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.
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 KS ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
