“From the moment I met Shannon, I knew that my pet was gonna be taking care of! She’s awesome understanding and knows what she’s doing when it comes to dealing with people and pets. My dog Bailey had a really amazing experience and I will be definitely using Shannon in the future. Thank you so much again!”
“Lona and Alan were amazing at watching my baby! They have wonderful ideas and games for mental stimulation. They make sure to get all the details and preferences for caring for your pet, and are on top of sending updates multiple times a day so you don’t worry. I have no doubt for any future trips I’ll take that my dog will be in great hands!”
“This was our first time using this service, and I am so glad I found Taylor! We were very hesitant with the idea of leaving our dog with a stranger, but Taylor's reviews and her prompt answers to my numerous questions, we were quickly put us at ease. We received daily updates and pictures, and it was obvious to us that Moose was having the best time and was well cared for. Before we picked him up, I had already reached out to Taylor to rebook with her for an upcoming trip!”
“Susan and her family were great with our dog! They gave him lots of love and attention and sent us pictures to make sure we knew he was doing well. I would absolutely recommend Susan and the next time I leave town I will reach out to her again!!”
“Would highly recommend Lori! She took great care of our dog Lucy and was very flexible on short notice. We appreciated getting the daily picture updates too. Our dog really enjoyed her stay!”
“Brandi is the best. I’ll never be able to leave Bo with anyone else. She is the standard by which all other dog care professionals should be judged by.”
“Rebecca is amazing! She does a great job taking care of our dog. She treats him like he's one of her family and he loves being there. She sends regular picture updates so we know he's doing well when we're away. Highly recommend Rebecca!”
“Catherine was amazing! This was our first time leaving Dixie with a sitter so of course I was worried about our gIrl. Catherine was great she eased those fears and welcomed Dixie right in! We received many pictures throughout the week showing her having so much fun! We would definitely use and recommend Catherine do all dog parents!!”
“Linda is warm and very knowledgeable about animal care and ways that pups can feel comfortable in her home. She is super calm and I’m sure my dog sensed that. Boy, does she love dogs. For the first time ever boarding my dog, Puddin came up to the door when I came to pick her excited but super chill. She was so relaxed! She didn’t want to bolt out the door as she usually does. I know she was loved while I was home. Best boarding experience ever! Linda loved my pet like it were her own. I will definitely use her again. We have found the perfect person for our doggo.”
“Wow wow! I am so happy I booked with Alyssa and her beautiful family. She knows dogs and helped my big dog through thunderstorms and my little dog’s general fear of people (rescue). She sent pics and updates all the time, which I appreciated. Excellent for boarding.”
“Dana was very responsive and very easy to deal with in setting up my booking for Rocco. She and her dog, Herbie, were very good hosts and it is obvious to me that Rocco really enjoyed his stay with Dana and family. I highly recommend them for boarding your dog!”
“We always have peace of mind whenever Moose stays with Stephanie. All those random photos that we received while we were away reassured us that he is happy a great time. I can’t count how many times moose stayed with her, but she’s definitely our go-to gal.”
“Brittany was great. I received updates and pictures daily. This was the first time Parker and MJ stayed away from home without me. It was very comforting to know that they were doing ok and having a good time with Franklin. 😊”
“Jessica and her family treat Louie like he’s their own. I love the pictures of her kids cuddling him and making him feel at home. It makes me happy to know he’s well taken care of while I’m away!”
“Bridget did awesome with our dog! She was very quick to reply, very detail oriented, and very caring. I would highly recommend her and will definitely use her again.”
“This was my first time using Rover and had a great experience with Sharon and Glen. They took good care of Razzy, provided regular photos and updates and responded quickly to all of my questions. Will book with them again in the future.”
“We had an amazing experience with Nicole and her family. She was so responsive, flexible, and communicative through the whole process. She has an amazing back yard with plenty of room for the dogs to run around. We received updates and pictures throughout our dogs’ stay, and it was clear they were completely loved on by her and her family!”
“Kaylie was fantastic with our King Charles. He has a little anxiety and she won him over within two minutes of meeting him. She was very easy to work with. Great communication. We were visiting Kansas City and needed a dog sitter. I highly recommend Kaylie, and will use her again if we are in the area!”
“Joseph took care of Luna for a little over 2 weeks, and we couldn’t be more pleased. We got the perfect amount of updates and pictures/videos. We’ve left Luna in Jospeh’s care several times at this point, and have no plans of stopping in the future.”

This is our second time booking with Madelyn and her husband, and just like the first time, it was such a great decision to have them take care of our dog again. They always kept us updated and constantly sent us pictures of Dunkin, which gave us peace of mind throughout our trip. We never had to worry about leaving Dunkin with them because they were so sweet, loving, and caring toward him. They are truly animal lovers, and you can really see how much they care for the pets they look after. 🐶❤️ We highly recommend Madelyn and her husband! We will definitely book with them again in the future. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This is the first time we’ve used a service like Rover and had such a great experience with Rhonda that we will never board our dog at a kennel again. Rhonda and her family were so kind and took great care of our dog. She sent pics and videos and we could see how happy our dog was and how well she was being cared for. We will definitely be contacting Rhonda again!!!
Riley was the 2nd rover i’ve ever used, and I chose her based off of days and days of research and comparing different sitters i’d feel most comfortable with. I have a very hard time leaving my Baby, and cry at even the idea of having to leave her. This trip was the longest we have ever left her for, and I can’t lie I was dreading it. I was also worried about how baby would get along with her dogs, cruella and Milk bone. My baby is only 2 and is quite annoying to big dogs when playing, and can irritate older dogs so I get really worried about how she will be received and how the other dogs will treat her but after our meet and greet, I felt 1000% better and felt riley was an amazing option for us. Her dogs were patient, kind and got along with baby so quickly and easily, which made me so so happy. Riley also has such a deep knowledge and talent when it comes dog aggression and behavior I felt so comfortable and her and her dogs both helped train baby with basic manners and play behavior so she can take these skills to any dog and make a friend instead of aggravating others. I was so impressed to see her eating as a pack with the other dogs, playing appropriately and listening. baby had so much fun and left with life long skills that we are implementing into our daily routine. I can’t say enough amazing things about riley, we were gone for 7 days and I felt so comfortable and didn’t worry once. she was even flexible when we had flight cancellations and had to extend her stay by an entire day. if you have any concerns or hesitations, just BOOK. she is amazing, so friendly, and so good at what she does. she’s a natural talent at what she does. Thank you riley!!!! I hope we can do another pack walk soon so baby can come and see her friends again :)
Bobbi did a wonderful job taking care of Sailor! She sent videos and/or pictures everyday with an update of how Sailor was doing. Sailor always looked so happy and content in the videos/pictures. Bobbi was so loving and attentive to Sailor’s needs. I will definitely hire her again in the future! Thank you, Bobbi!!!!
We contacted Abigail when we were traveling through the area and needed our pups to have care for two days and 1 night while our family explored. We originally planned to drop them off at a local boarding facility, but thought they’d do better in a quieter environment. Abigail was available for a last minute booking, was super communicative the entire time, sent lots of pictures and updates, was very knowledgeable about our dog breed and dogs in general, had lots of things for them to do at her home and made sure to ask all kinds of questions beforehand so that her home, etc. was set up best for their care. We would definitely use her again if the need arose. Our first experience doing this kind of booking couldn’t have been smoother! Thanks Abigail!
Nathan did a really good job taking care of our husky! We were on a road trip along with another car that had constant issues on the drive back and we had to stop multiple times to help us all get home. Unfortunately, it ended up causing us to get home too late to pick her up. Nathan was very understanding and had no issues extending her stay until the next morning when my husband could pick her up. We greatly appreciated the flexibility and working with us during our unfortunate circumstances!
Adam and Kirsten were absolutely amazing with Bruno! He was already limping before we dropped him off, and they took such great care of him and made sure to keep an eye on him the entire time. They sent lots of pictures and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. The best part was picking Bruno up. He came home so happy and in such great spirits. It was obvious he was loved and well cared for. I would 1,000% recommend Adam and Kirsten to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their pet. We’ll definitely be booking with them again!

Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
92% of Gladstone sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Gladstone landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Gladstone home-away-from-home, we recommend 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 Gladstone.
Tip: 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 Gladstone 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 Rover Guarantee , 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 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 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.
