“Courtney and her family were SO good with our girl! They welcomed her right into the family and took excellent care of her! I have no doubt we will use Courtney again to care for Ellie Mae.”

“Shirley is a kind and compassionate person who was willing to take on my grand dog I just inherited. I did not know that much about Lola’s behaviors with other dogs or how she would be away from me. Shirley understands the need to pay attention and let the dog show you what they need. It was a successful experience for both Lola and I and I look forward to our next visit.”
About: We are a professional, appointment only boarding facility, not in home couch care. This is a premium boarding facility that operates under the roof of our home and is not separated, allowing for constant supervision and hands on care in a calm, structured environment. We are proficient in administering medications and providing advanced care such as IV fluids when needed. We have worked extensively with puppies and senior dogs alike, reinforcing crate routines, basic manners, and age-appropriate structure for young dogs, while providing a slower pace, comfort focused routines and attentive support for older dogs. Our facility features automatic water systems, spacious private rooms, and we provide dog beds and bowls for every stay if needed. Dogs enjoy outdoor time in a large, fully fenced group play yard with real grass and an 8 foot wooden privacy fence, as well as a separate, spacious vinyl fenced private yard with turf for one on one or low stimulus play. We prioritize safety, cleanliness, routine, and peace of mind for owners. We have a setup that allows your baby to be comfortable, calm and ready for their next stay with us! Pet care is built directly into our daily and weekly routine. Because our boarding facility operates under the roof of our home, dogs are part of our day from morning to night, not checked in on between errands. Each day follows a consistent structure that includes supervised potty breaks, outdoor play or private yard time, feeding, cleaning, and rest periods. Dogs are visually checked on frequently throughout the day, and we adjust routines based on age, energy level, and individual needs. Puppies receive more frequent breaks and guidance, while senior dogs are given a calmer pace and extra comfort. Weekly routines include deep cleaning of rooms and yards, ongoing monitoring of behavior and health, and maintaining a calm, low stress environment. Because this is not a side gig or drop-in service, care is hands-on, intentional, and continuous. Dogs are never left unattended for long stretches, and their safety and well being are part of our everyday life. We care for pets exclusively at our boarding facility, which operates under the roof of our home and is not separated. This allows for constant supervision and hands on care throughout the day and evening. Dogs follow a structured daily routine that includes feeding, supervised outdoor time, rest periods, and frequent check ins. We provide spacious private rooms, dog beds, bowls, automatic water systems, and maintain a clean, calm environment at all times. Outdoor time includes both group play in a large, real grass yard with an 8-foot wooden privacy fence and private yard time in a spacious vinyl fenced turf area, depending on each dog’s temperament and needs. We have extensive experience caring for puppies and senior dogs and are proficient in administering medications and advanced care such as IV fluids when needed. All dogs are temperament screened prior to boarding to ensure safety and reduce stress. Care is individualized, groups are kept small, and routines are adjusted to best support each dog’s comfort, health, and well being.
About: I've had animals since I was a child. We've raised and owned everything from horses to ferrets. We live in 6 fenced acres with lots of room to run, jump and play! I'm super vigilant about the safety and the health of every animal so be assured your baby will be looked after! I currently work from home, so going outside, going for walks, and having playtime is not an issue here. I have time to share love and attention! Fenced yard, air conditioned home, no kiddos, no smoking in the home, with one 8 lb Pomchi that loves to play and make new friends!
About: I previously worked in nursing, but I am now a full-time Investigator while pursuing my PhD in Forensic Psychology. Caring for others has always been a big part of who I am—and that absolutely includes animals! I have been around dogs my entire life and genuinely love caring for them. I grew up with a Shih Tzu who was with me from the time I was born until I was 20 years old. Over the years, I also had three Saint Bernards and a Lab, all of whom were incredibly loved and cared for throughout their lives. My Saint Bernards lived into old age, and unfortunately, my Lab eventually passed away from cancer. Today, I have Scrappy, who is 10, and Blue, my 11-year-old Bullmastiff, and I have had both of them since they were puppies. Scrappy was rescued after I took him in from the streets, and Blue required extra special care as a newborn when his mother became ill and could no longer nurse him. I bottle-fed him with formula and cared for him around the clock—and today, Blue is my service dog! What sets me apart from other pet sitters is the amount of hands-on experience, patience, and genuine care I bring with me. I’ve cared for dogs of all different sizes, from a Shih Tzu to Saint Bernards and a Bullmastiff, as well as puppies, seniors, rescues, and dogs requiring additional care. My nursing background has also made me very attentive to changes in behavior and wellbeing and comfortable taking detailed instructions seriously. Most importantly, I understand that someone’s dog isn’t “just a pet”—they’re family. When someone trusts me with their dog, I want them to feel confident knowing their baby is being cared for by someone who will treat them with the same patience, attention, affection, and responsibility that I give my own. ❤️🐾 I am currently working from home so I have time to play with dogs and give them the attention and care they need and want. I have 3 acres fully fenced in. I treat every dog with love and care as if they are my own. Just as I would want someone else to treat mine.

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 Joplin 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 Joplin.
<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 Joplin 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 TX 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.
