“From the moment I met Brittney and Max I felt very comfortable having them watch Seamus. Their dog and kids were perfect companions for him and guaranteed he’d get plenty of love and affection. I also received plenty of pictures from Brittney which put me at ease and was a nice touch when I was missing him. He got plenty of time outdoors, cuddles, and play time. I will definitely be using this family in the future.”

“Hank and I couldn’t be happier with Victoria and Bob! They treated Hank with so much love, care, and attention, and I honestly couldn’t have chosen a better place for him to stay. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. Their dog, Charlotte, and their cat are also the sweetest and so friendly! ❤️ Thank you both for welcoming Hank into your home and loving him as if he were your own. We truly appreciate you guys and couldn’t recommend your services enough. We’ll definitely be seeing you again soon! 🐾”

“The best experience with Katie!! Our King Charles, Bentley, got the best of care on our recent trip to Kansas City. She was a caring professional from our first meeting. She won over Bentley in just a few minutes. She kept us updated daily with pictures and information. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Highly recommend!!”

About: While I’m new to caring for others’ dogs, I’m an experienced dog owner. I’ll provide the same attentive, loving care I expect for my own. I work from home from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., so morning drop-offs must be before 7:00 a.m. This gives your dog plenty of time to settle in, get comfortable, and enjoy at least 45 minutes of playtime before I start my workday. My work schedule allows me plenty of flexibility for potty breaks, attention, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day. Because I do work from home, dogs staying with me should also be comfortable relaxing independently while I’m in meetings or focused on work. They’ll never be short on attention—they just need to be happy hanging out while I get some work done too! Your dog’s safety is my top priority. My home provides a calm, comfortable environment where dogs are treated like part of the family. I only accept small, potty-trained dogs with no history of aggression or resource guarding to help keep everyone safe and comfortable. I have a fully fenced yard for potty breaks, fresh air, and supervised playtime. Dogs are never left outside unattended—I will always be outside with them. I also closely supervise interactions between dogs, especially during meals, treats, and playtime. Since I work from home, I’m here throughout the day to provide regular potty breaks, attention, and supervision. My goal is for you to feel confident that your dog is safe, secure, and well cared for while staying in my home.

“Luther was wonderful! Kai was comfortable with him from the start of the meet and greet. He gave her access to roam his home instead of relegating her to a single room or putting her in a kennel. This was HUGE for me. He took her on long walks, played with her in his backyard and made her feel at home. I greatly appreciated the pictures he sent. I will be using Luther again and highly recommend his services to others.”

“Mayson watched our 2 Great Dane puppies. She was so great. She was very understanding that they are still puppies and don't have the best manners yet. She sent us pictures everyday, with updates on how they were doing. They got to play outside and be comfy inside too. There was a tornado warning while were away, and Mayson had the dogs safely downstairs and sent me an update on how everyone was doing. It was really reassuring knowing that she is a vet tech, and that they had a home-like atmosphere to be in while away from us. We would highly recommend Mayson and hope our dogs will get to stay with her again the next time we go away.”

About: Hello! My name is Mak! I am a dog lover and enthusiast! I've had animals growing up my entire life and I have four pets of my own; two cats, a Pembroke corgi, and a black lab. We can't wait to meet your best friend! I'm sure we will have lots of fun with activities, car rides, and more. I have led two pets through therapeutic trainings, have cared for over 55 pets through Rover since 2019, and have the resources to ensure your baby is comfortable while you’re away. Put your buddy in good hands when you can't be home and enjoy knowing your best pal is at a safe place. I currently work from home with my other half of the week doing social work things. We start the day with breakfast, potty breaks, play time, then we nap a bit; next we have lunch/ dinner and play some more! I have a large sized fenced in back yard. I also have two dogs of my own. We will take naps, snuggle, play fetch, go on car rides, to the park or nature, and enjoy a few snacks. :)

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

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.

Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Garden City 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 Garden City.

<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 Garden City 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.
