“Dana is wonderful, clearly as both a pet owner and caregiver. Leia had a great time and was well taken care of, and I know she would love to be back having fun with Dana and her pups. Great communication and always in touch. Thank you Dana!”
“This was our fist time boarding our dogs. They did great and loved Joseph. He made them feel comfortable right away. They came back happy and tired. Would definitely recommend Joseph.”
“We left our dog Friday with Crissy and family for a week while on vacation and had total trust that she was in good hands and enjoying herself in their company. I would absolutely consider leaving her with Crissy again should the need arise.”
“Rachel was great! She clearly cares about and has the ability to put our dog at ease throughout the stay. We appreciated her flexibility and detailed updates. Would highly recommend! We hope to have her care for our dog again!”
“Erin was very responsive and kept me in the loop on my puppy’s daily goings on. I appreciated all of the photos she shared. My furry dude was having the time of his life and had a big grin on his face in pretty much all of the pictures. We would love to use her again.”
“Laurie was great. Flexible and kind. Drop off and pick up went smooth and the communication during the sit, was great. I would use Laurie’s services every time to watch Bella. In the future. Thank you Laurie. Thank’s for taking care of my Girl!!!”
“Kasey and her daughter Izzy took AMAZING care of our sweet puppy. She sent updates throughout every day and made me assured that she was getting taken care of as if she were her own puppy. They sent videos and pictures and loved on her so much!”
“Jessica and her family were wonderful with our dog Jack! He seemed right at home at their house for the long weekend. Her kids paid lots of attention to Jack which he can never get enough of. We got plenty of updates over the weekend so we knew exactly how he was doing. We will definitely be using Jessica again in the future!”
“This was our first time ever leaving our puppy over night and we were so anxious. Madilynn kept in contact with us and sent pictures and videos to ease our minds. We will use her anytime we are in the area from now on!! Thank you so much for caring for our baby.”

“Rhiannon was absolutely wonderful with Eloise, especially given it was a long stay on short notice. We so appreciated her care so we could travel knowing our sweet, high-energy girl was in great hands.”
About: Hi! I’m Olivia, a lifelong dog lover with years of experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I currently work from home, which allows me to give pets lots of attention, playtime, walks, and companionship throughout the day. I’m very active and love making sure dogs get the exercise and stimulation they need. I also have an English Cream Golden Retriever named Sully who is extremely playful, friendly, and loves having dog buddies around. Because of that, I’m looking for dogs that enjoy playing and socializing! Creating a safe, loving, and fun environment for pets is something I truly enjoy, and I’ll care for your dog like they’re my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I’m home throughout the day for walks, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention and companionship. I typically do a 30-minute morning walk, a lunchtime walk, and an evening walk to help dogs stay active, stimulated, and on a consistent routine. I’m also very active myself and love spending time outdoors with dogs. Since I already care for my own playful Golden Retriever, Sully, having dogs in the home is already a big part of my everyday lifestyle. Sully loves having dog buddies around, so I’m looking for dogs that enjoy playing and socializing as well! I provide a safe, loving, and active environment for pets in my home. I have a fenced-in backyard for supervised outdoor play and potty breaks, along with a large finished basement where dogs can run around, play, and burn off energy indoors. Since I work from home, pets receive plenty of attention, supervision, companionship, and exercise throughout the day. I follow each dog’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions from owners. My goal is to make every dog feel comfortable, cared for, and right at home while they’re with me.
“Katelynn was awesome! She was incredibly attentive to details in my dogs’ profiles and I was pleasantly surprised when she just started rattling off information about the meds they take and their different needs I had written out. My dogs were clearly happy and well cared for when I picked them up and we have already rebooked with her for next week!”
“First time using Christine and it was a great experience. Communication was easy and consistent, and our dogs seemed happy and comfortable when we got home. Everything went smoothly and we felt good knowing they were well cared for. We’d definitely use Christine again.”
“Ellie was BEYOND AMAZING. I've never left my dog (baby) with ANYONE other than close friends or family, and i'm very anxiously attached to her. I was very very nervous leading up to my trip, but the second my boyfriend and I met Ellie, we felt 10000 times better. She sent me so many photos, and kept me up to date on everything. The photos really made me feel more comfortable during the trip, I could tell she was very happy and comfortable. Also, anytime we leave Baby she almost always skips her lunch. Baby was eating both meals every single day which was a huge sign to me that Ellie made her comfortable and at home. I would recommend Ellie to everyone!! If you have any hesitations, set up a meet and greet and you will feel at ease the second you meet her. I can't thank Ellie enough, I was worried I wasn't going to be able to enjoy my vacation due to my worries but I wasn't worried for one second while I was away. 1,000/10, will be using Ellie in the future <3”
“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!”

We are so grateful we found Savannah! She stepped in at the very last minute to take care of Sam, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She was incredibly kind, patient, and caring, and immediately made us feel at ease. It was clear she genuinely loves animals and treated Sam like he was her own. Knowing he was in such good hands gave us so much peace of mind during a stressful situation. We would absolutely trust her with him again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate and reliable pet sitter. Thank you so much! ❤️🐾
Yeanna took great care of my little guy! I really appreciated her being flexible with the drop off time. Excellent communication and she sent some cute pics where he looked right at home. I highly recommend her and will definitely be reaching out again in the future!!
Kylie is amazing, with her being new to platform I’m sure she will gain more repeat bookings because of how well she does with pets. She did amazing with my senior baby dog and I look forward to using her again, he adapted so well she her which is hard to come across. She is very flexible, accommodating, and informative- highly recommend using someone who is a fellow dog lover and she is it!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Kansas City on Rover is $33.3 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 1,148 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Kansas City. About 93% of Kansas City sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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 KS ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
