“Kristy was fantastic! She was very communicative and sent pictures and updates of how my dog Scout was doing and treated him like he was her own! Would definitely book with her again.”
“Daisy had a great time staying with Brittany, Max and their family. It’s obvious they love dogs and know how to welcome new pets to their home. Loved getting pics everyday too. Much thanks!”
“Sarah did a great job keeping my 2yr old mini aussie for 5 days while we went out of state. She kept me posted on how he was doing and she sent me pics on the regular. Highly recommend! She also has dogs herself and Rio loved it! I think he misses his friends ❤️”
“Jenny took great care of our dog. She gave us daily updates and photos on how she was doing which we greatly appreciated. Our dog loved spending time there and playing with Jenny’s dog!”
“Very friendly and loves what she does! I recieved pictures everyday and my dog slept very well his first night back home! It’s the most excited I’ve seen my dog when he comes back from boarding! 10/10!!”
“Hands down the best cat sitter I’ve ever used, five stars, ten out of ten. She kept my little baby happy and spoiled while I was gone, sent adorable photo updates every single day without me even asking, and everything felt so easy and stress-free. Seriously, if you’re looking for someone who actually cares about your cat like it’s her own, she’s the one. Book her now, you won’t regret it!!!”
About: I have had dogs in my home since I was 5 years old. I love all types of dogs, and people have always called me the animal whisperer. I love and care about all animals and relish the opportunity to spoil your furry family member while you're away! I've cared for dogs of all sizes and ages, and I also have 10 years of experience as a vet tech, so I can handle anything from the day-to-day care of your pet to high-stress situations that require additional knowledge and attention. I work a fully remote job and I'm home all the time. I'm happy to work with you on a unique boarding schedule that works for you. Vacations are stressful enough, and I understand that plans change, so I'm happy to accommodate your schedule to the best of my ability. Please don't hesitate to reach out with additional questions about scheduling! I have two Australian Shepherds of my own and they love to make new friends! I enjoy having companions for them in the house because they wear them out! They will be thrilled to keep your fur baby company and give them a fantastic vacation while you're enjoying your time away. I can accommodate a crate for your dog for meal times, sleeping, or training if needed. Please don't hesitate to reach out with additional questions about care!
“What a great experience for me and my dog. I booked Abigail and would do it again. She was very responsive to messages and tons of pictures and updates. My dog had a great time.”
“Nicole was wonderful! She provided excellent communication throughout our trip and sent photos, which gave me great peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dog was well cared for, and having fun. In fact, when he came home, he cried because he missed his new friends and the environment he had grown so attached to. We couldn’t ask for a better indication of how happy and comfortable he was in her care. Highly recommend!”
“Jennifer was amazing with Oki! He is a shy little guy and we could tell right away he felt comfortable with her. We got daily updates so we knew he was doing well and getting plenty of sunshine! Jennifer was super communicative and easy to work with. We will definitely be using her again !”
“We have used Shawn multiple times for watching our two dogs, and they LOVE going to his house! We are always at ease knowing they are with him while we are out of town! He provides regular updates & reaches out with questions/concerns! We don't leave them with anyone else, he's great!!”
“Elaine was amazing with watching our dog Liv for 5 days. She sent us daily updates and we felt that Liv was in safe hands and did not need to worry about her. She was super accommodating and would recommend and use again”
“Great. She let us know any abnormalities and her son and husband are so nice to the dog. I think this is much better than taking lucky to the kennel. The pictures she sent were so great. Thanks a lot. ”
“Our dogs had a great time and she was great about keeping us updated. We’ve never left our dogs at a strangers house before so we were nervous but felt like they were safe and happy the entire time. We’d definitely bring them back again!”
About: We have a small Shih Tzu, a German Shepherd, and a cat at home, so animals are truly a big part of our family. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes, personalities, and needs, including pets who require extra attention, medication, special routines, or additional care. I understand how important it is to make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away I work from home, which gives me the flexibility to structure my day around whatever needs my attention. I can do mornings, afternoons, and evenings. My pets are family to me, so I understand how important it is to know they’re in loving, attentive hands. I would give your pets that same level of care and attention.
About: I have loved dogs since I was a child. As a pre-teen, I used to go to my neighbors' homes to take their dogs for walks. Then, in 1993, my parents finally gave me my first dog—a black English Cocker Spaniel. I haven't been without dogs since. The first one was stolen when he was a year old. The second, another black Cocker, lived for 14 years. During that time, I also had a Yorkshire Terrier who lived to be 17. Currently, I have a 12-year-old female Papillon who came with me from Brazil a little over two years ago. I am Brazilian and qualified as a veterinarian in 2003. I spent six years working in a clinic treating dogs before switching to a different area of veterinary practice for personal reasons. Since moving to the US, I have been a full-time mom, as my youngest daughter is not yet school-age. I believe a meet-and-greet is beneficial for both parties; it’s a time for pets and their owners to get to know me better, and for me to get to know the pet (I like to fill out a form during this time to record details about them). I understand that just like us, dogs need regular walks to stay happy, healthy and mentally stimulated. If life gets busy and you're unable to take your pup out as often as you'd like, I'd be happy to help. I also offer loving in-home care for pets who prefer to stay cozy and comfortable in their own home while you're away. Services offered: dog walker, boarding, drop-in visits and doggy day care. I offer other pet services upon request. I am currently a full-time mother and homemaker, so I do not have a job that keeps me away from home for long stretches at a time. I have a friendly 12-year-old female dog, but she doesn't know how to play with other dogs; she’s a companion for quiet moments rather than playtime. I have three children—aged 4, 6, and 9—who adore dogs and love playing with them. I live in a house without a fenced yard. The raised deck has a gate and is a spot where my dog likes to hang out and watch the activity. I’ve installed a 34-inch removable fence in a small area where a dog can be left without constant supervision (provided they aren't a climber or a jumper).
About: I had my sweet Sparky for over 17 years and glad to walk my sweet granddog now. I read to my granddog so that’s fun! I would like to give lots of pets, walks, and attention to yours! I recently retired for the second time. Former librarian and kind of the caretaker-type (I even read the book SnugglePuppy to my granddog!) I have time these days and while not wanting to have a full time pet, would like to help you take care of yours! I have a fenced in backyard so can let your dog in/out as needed. Enjoy taking walks-in my neighborhood or let me know if we can walk on the Legacy Park trail as it is close to my house and I take my granddog there when I watch her!

As of November 2026, there are 257 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Gunn City. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.
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.
95% of sitters in Gunn City can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Gunn City 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 Gunn City.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Gunn City. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Gunn 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 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
