“We left both our dogs their today, 1st time for one of them. I got messages, pic and video to let me know how they were doing! I feel totally at ease leaving the dogs here! She is so good with them!”
“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!”
About: I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember. Neighbors, friends, and family have all relied on me at some point to take care of their pets. I always do my job well and they ask me to do it time and time again! I am currently a junior in college at KU going to nursing school downtown. I work part time as a CNA. So I will be available whenever I can around those times! My family has two dogs, and a cat. I feed and walk them regularly. I spend time with our pets and show them great care and attention.
“We knew we were going to be happy with leaving our Stella at Josh’s house, just from the meet and greet we had with him. His home is in a country setting and there is a huge fenced yard for the dogs to play in. Josh sent us several pictures during the day of Stella playing with the other dogs, and we could tell she was having a great time! His hours are much more flexible than the boarding place we have used before. When we got Stella home, she was totally worn out from playing so much. We will definitely be bringing Stella back to Josh’s for day care and boarding!!”
About: Located just 10 minutes west of the Legends of Kansas City, your fur-baby will get the TLC that you’d provide in your own home. Plenty of attention and room to run! I currently work some evenings and weekends in order to homeschool during the day so we are home often. I will be clear about availability during bookings. My family is fur-baby friendly with 4 goats, a flock of chickens, two sweet puppies, and a cat currently. During bookings my two dogs (one is an outdoor farm dog) and cat will be kept separate to ensure the safety and comfort of all. Any medical, training, attention, and care needs will be accommodated as requested by the owner.

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.”
About: I have worked in veterinary Kennels and in shelters. I am also a certified Dog and Cat trainer through Animal Behavior College in 2013. I have been trained in animal first aide. I have a military I.D. so I can also care for military families as well! I come home on my lunch break to let the dogs run in the yard (we NEVER leave the dogs outside on their own for safety from hawks etc). The longest they are alone is 5 hours. Our live revolve around our own dogs so they will feel like one of the family in no time. We have a fenced .75 acre yard that we stay out with them for safety. Older pups will be carried on any stairs to prevent any falls. Kenneling is a part of our home for safety. But if we are home they are out. The dogs have their own room where they kennel that has safety film on the windows so they can benefit from the light but are not tormented by the squirrels in the trees. Cats are kept in their own area as well. I know how important your dog is and I will treat them the way I would want mine treated. With the exception of errands and taking kids to school I am home full time. We treat visitors as one of the pack. Often our visiting pups like to lounge on the couch when not supervised in the yard. I have a fenced yard and dogs are not left outside unattended (especially the little ones). We have a multi layered floor plan so if a dog needs to be alone for a bit we have the ability to do so.
About: Currently only interested in 1 visit a day that can bd flexible around my work schedule. I’ve always had animals, dogs & cats mostly but others too. Caring for them when your away would be my pleasure. I currently have 3 dogs & 2 cats! My work schedule is crazy! Changes daily! I can only visit your pet once per day & it needs to be a rather flexible time but I will do my best to accommodate your schedule as well. Our yard is NOT fenced but due the landscaping most dogs stay close, I don’t mind clipping a leash on & walking with them too. I enjoy giving belly scratches & brushing out the loose hair. Kittens always should get a good ear rub & loving! We feed twice a day, morning & evening. Water bowls are all over!
About: I’ve always had dogs growing up, from beagles to Akita’s, shitzus to lab/Great Dane mixes. We have a Morkie and a Pit/Weimaraner mix who love having doggy play dates! I work remotely, so your pup can lounge with me in my office on the guest bed or dog beds, or can hang out outside in the large fenced in yard. I live in a home with a large fenced in yard, so they have the option to hang out inside or out throughout the day. My bigger dog really enjoys being outside and my smaller likes to be near me all the time so only likes to go out for potty breaks during the day.
About: I've been around and owned large dogs throughout my life, as well as other small and exotic pets. All guests will meet Gracie, our very friendly service-dog-in-training, who loves to make new friends! Every dog I've owned, I've done at least basic household obedience training with. I'm self-employed, work from home, and have a very flexible schedule. Please check the calendar for blocked dates. Gracie and I typically start our day at 8:00AM, but we can receive visitors as early as 7:00. We start the day with breakfast and yard time before the heat comes in. When it starts to cool off in the evening, Gracie and I walk a 3-mile loop from the house to a nearby wooded trail and back. We have plenty of super chewer toys and treats for larger dogs, and a large fenced in back yard with room to run! Depending on weather, the dogs would spend most of the time in the house during the day. All time in the back yard is supervised. Housebroken dogs are allowed on couches and to roam the house. We also have kennels upstairs and downstairs, if needed.

“This daycare has been great for my super fearful rescue who came from a puppy mill/hoarding situation so she has no idea how to be a dog. They have been SO patient with her and having somewhere affordable she can go while I work 12 hour shifts has been such a relief I can't even verbalize the magnitude of difference it has created in our lives. I'm telling anyone and everyone who will listen about this place. Cannot recommend enough.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our fur baby. This was our first time leaving our girl with someone we didn’t know but Alex answered all our questions and we felt more than comfortable leaving her for the day. We loved getting videos of her playing and having a good time with all her new friends. If in the KC area again, we would definitely take her back!”
About: I grew up on the family farm surrounded by dogs and cats and all kinds of animals - caring for them was part of my life. That lifelong connection led me to volunteer at a local dog and cat shelter where I've gained even more experience with pets of all temperaments and needs. I treat every animal like a family and I willl give your pet loving care whether it's for a quick walk or an overnight stay. I have a very flexible schedule so I can fully prioritize pet care. My days naturally revolve around the animals I am caring for and I enjoy creating routine that suits their needs. My home, farm in the woods, is a dog paradise where they can relax, go for walks or play. In client's home, I'm respectful of their space and routines, I communicate with the owner, send updates and make sure the pet has all my attention.
“Brittany was great and Ovi had a great time staying with she and her family! Very flexible and personable and made sure every detail about his care was attended to. And their dog Franklin was a great companion for Ovi!”
About: I have loved dogs all my life. In the past few years I walked over 100 shelter dogs and took training for nervous and shy dogs. I have also worked with reactive and sensitive dogs, and fostered a few puppies. I enjoy all dogs including high energy and active dogs. I only work part time so I have plenty of time to care for your pet. Most days are devoted to caring for animals around here. I am very conscientious about safety with pets. I have a secure fenced yard at home but always watch the dogs when they are out. My German shepherd Husky mix helped me dog proof the house as well
About: I have a lot of watching dog experience and walking! I love all animals! I look forward to taking care of your dogs! I have had dogs in my life since I was born! I always gotta have one! Whether you have a small or giant dog, I am here to help you with what you need. Thanks for reading. I look forward to meeting you and discussing your pet sitting/walking needs.

About: New to Rover, however not new to loving and caring for animals! I have had dogs, cats, a bird, an iguana, and fish. It is something I am extremely passionate about, and always the highlight of my day. I am specifically looking for a client who needs ongoing care for their pet, such as daycare throughout the week (we can work out the rate if your pet will be staying with me frequently). A little about myself..I am a dentist, but I am currently unemployed due to this being a transitional year for our family, as my fiancé is Active Duty and temporarily stationed here.

About: I’ve taken care of all different types of pets in all stages of life since I was 8 years old. I grew up with dogs, cats, turtles, birds, and hamsters in my household so I know how to handle a variety of situations. I’m currently on break from school and I work part time so I am available on weekdays and morning/afternoons on the weekend. My schedule can be adjusted so feel free to reach out and we can work something out for your pet care needs. I live in a gated apartment complex with two fenced patios in my unit. We share numerous outdoor lawn areas for pets, but I will always keep your pet leashed when outside for safety and security.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Fairmount
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 677 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Fairmount. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Fairmount 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 677 sitters in Fairmount, 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.
