About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and currently have two of my own, so caring for dogs isn’t something I “fit in”—it’s already built into my daily routine. My schedule is structured around their needs, including multiple long walks each day, consistent feeding times, and plenty of attention throughout the day. Because I live this every day, I understand how important routine, exercise, and a calm environment are for dogs. I’m especially attentive to energy levels, behavior changes, and making sure each dog gets the right balance of activity and rest. What sets me apart is the level of consistency and care I provide—your dog won’t just be watched, they’ll be integrated into a structured, active, and attentive environment. Whether it’s walks or boarding, I treat every dog like my own and make sure they feel comfortable, exercised, and well cared for. I work full-time with a mix of work-from-home and in-office days. On days I’m home, your dog will have consistent attention and regular breaks throughout the day. When I’m in the office, I come home over lunch to let dogs out and check in. I primarily offer boarding on weekends but am open to weeknight stays as well, depending on your dog’s needs. Your dog will be cared for like part of the family while staying in my home. I have two playful, friendly dogs who enjoy making new friends and can help keep your pup entertained and socialized. I focus on maintaining routines, providing regular walks and potty breaks, and making sure every dog gets the attention, exercise, and comfort they need to feel at home.

Linda took the best care of my Yoshi while I was gone for 10 days. I’d typically be apprehensive being gone for so long, but I knew that he was in good hands with Linda!! She checked in frequently and did everything to make sure he felt at home at her place! 😊

Dana was excellent! She understood the needs of our Labrador dog, and met them perfectly. Her house and yard were tidy. Her dog is friendly and a great playmate for our dog. All communication with Dana was clear, concise, and prompt, and we received updates and photos throughout his stay. We came back to a very happy pup and would gladly use Dana's services again.

About: I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, from energetic puppies learning the ropes to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and support. I'm comfortable reinforcing training, maintaining established routines, and caring for dogs with special needs, including administering insulin injections, eye drops, oral medications, and following detailed treatment schedules. I work evening shifts, so my schedule allows me to spend much of the day with the dogs in my care before heading to work. Before I leave, they'll have plenty of exercise, playtime, potty breaks, and attention, and as soon as I'm home, it's back to cuddles, walks, and quality time. My evening shifts are typically 6 to 8 hours, so dogs are never left alone for extended periods. I live in a large, spacious apartment in a very dog-friendly community right next to a large park, so there will be no shortage of walks, fresh air, and new things to explore. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, loved, comfortable, and right at home while you're away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and will always keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind. Pet care is something I intentionally build into my daily routine. I work evening shifts, so I have most of the day to focus on walks, playtime, potty breaks, and giving your dog plenty of love and attention before I head to work. My shifts are typically 6 to 8 hours, and as soon as I'm home, it's back to quality time together. I enjoy being active and spending time outdoors, so regular walks are already part of my day. Living next to a large park makes it easy to provide exercise, enrichment, and fresh air. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, or simply relaxing by my side, I'll tailor their care to their personality and routine so they feel happy, comfortable, and at home. Your pet's safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's habits, preferences, and any special instructions so I can provide consistent care that feels familiar and stress-free. In my home, pets have plenty of space to relax and settle in. I provide a clean, safe, and secure environment where dogs receive lots of attention, structure, and affection. I live in a pet-friendly community right next to a large park, and all walks are conducted on leash. I closely supervise pets during playtime, walks, feeding, and any interactions to ensure they're safe and comfortable. When I'm working, my evening shifts are typically 6 to 8 hours, so before I leave your dog will have plenty of exercise, enrichment, and a chance to settle in for some downtime. As soon as I'm home, they're my priority again with walks, playtime, and cuddles. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you're away.

This was Dooley's second stay with Deanna, and he looks forward to many more! Deanna is so kind and responsive. I know she lets Dooley, who is a senior dog, chill out on the couch with her...that's all he really wants (besides treats!). Deanna has a great [fenced] yard for the dogs to get outside and run around.

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!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Kansas City

Frequently asked questions about Rover

There are 1,114 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Kansas City. About 91% 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 MO 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.
