About: I have been taking care of animals my whole life and have always lived on a farm. I take care of animals both BIG and small. I love to be around animals. They are my happy place. I work from home. I train horse so, I'm as available for any of your pets needs. I can move my schedule around to accommodate you and your furry friend. I will care for your pet as if it was my own. My pet and yours are part of the family. They don't really know they are pets. I have 3 dogs, 1 cat, 3 horses, 3 chickens and 2 boys (age 12 & 15) that will help your pet feel at home and have all the attention they would want. We live on a 50 acre farm. We are the very last place on a dead end road. No traffic and not close to any highway or main roads.
About: I've had dogs all my life. Shelties Schnauzers, Suberian Huskies, German Shepherds, Yorkies and now beagles. I deeply love them all. I worked several years as a veterinary technician for a large and small animal clinic in the 1980s until life took me in a different direction. I currently live on our small family farm. I have a fenced back yard for your baby to play in. And there is a lot going on to entertain them. I'm retired and home all day if I'm hosting your fur baby. I would love to meet your furry kids and help them have the best time either here or in your home. I'm retired and if your fur baby is staying with me, I'll be here with them the whole stay. If I'm dropping in for a play and potty session, I'll give them all of my attention and an enjoyable session. I have a fenced yard and 2 friendly beagles to play with your pup. I can crate if you like, or if they're house trained, they can have the run of the house with my beagles.
“Teigan was able to accommodate our short notice day care request when my mother was admitted to the hospital. Our Benny had a great two days of play and came home one tired puppy. I’ll be back in this area and will absolutely keep her in mind if I need another sitter for Benny.”
About: I've been around dogs and cats since I was a young. I enjoy walking, feeding, and caring for all animals. True happiness is when I have a ball of fur in my lap. I must stay at home mom of two children. I have plenty of time to look after your pet in my home or come and walk feed/check on your pets at your home. I have a very friendly French Bulldog, a large kitchen sink for bath time, a fenced in backyard, a covered porch, and a dog door who could ask for more.
“I am SO grateful for Makayla!! My two Aussies LOVED spending time with her and her Aussies! She’s an excellent communicator and made me and my pups feel so comfortable and welcome. She loved on my girls like they were her own. I highly recommend Makayla!”
“Ella was amazing. She agreed to watch my pup last minute so that I could move. My girl was medicated from a long drive but she was extra caring and understanding. Ella even made adjustments with her dog so Luna would be comfortable. Highly recommend and thank you so much, Ella!”
“Norman had a great time with Eric as evidenced with lots of photos. Eric was easy to work with and flexible with my pickup time. Eric has a big fenced /shady yard where Norman could play with the other dogs. I will use Eric again and would recommend him to others.”
“Marissa provided outstanding care to our 2 year old golden. We booked a week with Marissa for doggie day care while I was in town in a work trip. I’ll definitely be rebooking with Marissa!”
About: I started out fostering puppies for a few years, one of which I kept as my foster fail, Emma! Emma loves to play with other dogs and would love the opportunity to hang out with yours while you get away for either work or fun. I have a full time job where I work from home, so would have plenty of time to care for your dog as needed. I am available most weeks and weekends. Since I have my dog, it would be essential to arrange quick meet and greets prior to committing. I have my dog Emma, who is a Saint Bernard mix. Though I just have her at the moment, she grew up with other dogs and loves the companionship. I recently constructed a fence for my backyard for ease of potty breaks, though stairs are necessary for this. Emma has free reign of the house while I am working, but I do have an x-pen and extra dog bed I could setup if needed. Emma takes daily medicine for her joints and thyroid, so I am used to giving medicine if your pup requires medicine as well.
“OMG! My little Bella had the time of her short little life! From the moment I met Aimee, I knew Bella would be well taken care of and loved while I took a day off from puppy mommy hood... and the adventures they shared were spectacular from the pictures Aimee shared! Thank you Aimee ... Bella WILL return! ???❣”
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was a kid who lived on a little farm. My experience ranges from birds, ferrets, reptiles, & cats, dogs. Animal care has always been something I’m passionate about. I know how important my animals are to me and so I will take the best care of yours while you’re away. I am a full time teacher so pet care is on the evenings most of the time. I can schedule weekends ahead of time and be available all day to let your loved ones outside as needed. During the summer my availability will be wide open! My pets are treated like a member of the family. I think that animals in our care should be shown love and grace because we chose to take care of them.
About: My home is an animal loving one for sure! We have one female corgi and a female indoor/outdoor cat. We have two kids, a 5yo and a 2yo. I ensure excellent communication with pet owners, as well as provide many photos throughout their stay. M-F I am at work 7:30-4. Other than that, I am home with my kiddos. I have long breaks that follow public school schedule. If your animal is at my home while I am at work, I do have cameras and a nanny that can provide potty breaks. My home is open to hosting other pets of any kind. We have two kids that will play their hearts out. I will send updates and photos daily of your pet’s adventures!
About: I've been dog sitting since I was a teen. I love dogs, my Hans is my first Baby, he unfortunately passed away with cancer at the age of 6. We were blessed to adopt his sister (his mom's last litter around 4 years ago) Piper. Piper is very sweet and tender. I run about 4 miles a day. And I walk with my son, Hakan who loves dogs, about 2 times a day. Safe area, plenty of room to run and play. Your fur baby will spend all day with me, my little boy and our 4 year old, ultra sweet border collie, piper If needed, we have a dog crate for sleeping in, but your dog is welcome to sleep in whatever arrangement he or she is used to. I prefer to host dogs at my home, but I can come to you too, so long as it's not too far away. I hope to see you soon! I am currently a stay at home mom and typically home nearly all day. I run every day and go.out and enjoy being outside a lot. I don't have a fenced yard but I don't take dogs out without a leash.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Goodman
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 153 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Goodman. 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 Goodman 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 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.
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 153 sitters in Goodman, 94% 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 contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
