“This was our first rover experience and it was great! Communication was easy and Rachell was very flexible when we had a flight delay. Hattie had so much fun meeting and playing with new dogs! We were happy to know she was getting love and care while we were away.”
“Haley made sure I had absolutely NO worries while boarding my little man for a week with her!! Piece of mind is so important, and Haley certainly provides that and lots of love! 💕”
“It was expensive, but I felt like my dogs received good care and lots of attention. Laura sent me lots of pictures which made me feel confident that my dogs were happy and well taken care of.”
About: I have taken care of healthy outgoing puppies to pets with special needs that require a little more personalized care and attention. I enjoy taking care of them all. I am a 10 year retiree that has plenty of time to share with loving pets. I have my own vehicle and a flexible schedule. I am a retired IT professional from the Federal Reserve. I value quality, professionalism, and honesty. I am punctual and I have good communication skills.
“Adam took excellent care of my Golden-Doodle. Nessa is often very timid and when left with sitters in the past, bolts for the door as soon as I arrive to pick her up. That wasn’t the case at all with Adam, he clearly bonded with her in a way that made her feel safe and welcome in his home. Adam sent pictures regularly that showed Nessa happy, playful and well-loved. I will definitely be booking with Adam again.”
“Michael was very respectful and nice when dropping off my cat for a in house sit. He updated me regularly which made me feel comfortable and safe with how everything was going. Definitely happy and recommend Michael!”
About: Honestly I love taking care of animals. I have a few of my own. Salem (cat) and Oscar (pup) Salem is very laid back and so friendly it’s insane. And Oscar being a puppy loves being around anyone and any pet. I currently work full time M-F but please know I will always make time for your fur babies. I’m usually available after 5pm on weekdays and I’m always available on weekends. I do not have a fenced in yard unfortunately but I do have a big grass area behind my house. We have a dog park we can go to nearby if permitted by owner
“Obi always love visiting, from daycare to boarding. He can barely contain his excitement as we pull up. Amy is great with communication and keeps you posted with pictures and videos. Amy and Peter do a fantastic job - highly recommend!”
“We are so thankful to have found someone who takes such good care of our pup while we’re away! The peace of mind that she’s safe and well taken care of is absolutely priceless ❤️”
“Lucy was fantastic! From the start, her communication was excellent, and she kept me updated throughout my dog's stay with thoughtful messages and photos. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my dog was in such capable hands. She was clearly experienced, attentive, and genuinely cared about making sure my dog was comfortable and well cared for. I felt completely confident in her abilities the entire time, which made it much easier to enjoy my trip. I would absolutely book with Lucy again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional sitter. Thank you, Lucy, for taking such great care of my pup!”
“We just booked Sascha for the 2nd time with our dog Nash. As soon as we pulled in to the driveway our dog knew he was back for a good time! Sascha sent pictures and videos each day and was quick to respond. Her dog Winston is very sweet and we would definitely recommend her to anyone!”
“This was the third time Karen has taken care of my pup and I was very happy with her service. She sent many pictures and videos, assuring me that McKenzie was well taken care of and content on her "vacation". Karen was even able to watch McKenzie two extra days when my return was delayed. Yay, Karen! Highly recommended!”
“Amelia was great! My dog was totally comfortable at her home. She sent pictures each day and kept us posted on how he was doing. She also took him on big walks through the parks. Would definitely recommend and will use again!”
“Samantha has 2 friendly dogs, a designated gated space for the dogs, and a large fenced in backyard. My dogs felt instantly comfortable playing with her dogs! I felt very comfortable leaving my dogs there and appreciated daily photos, I could tell my dogs were having a great time! Would definitely use her again”
“My first time using Rover and very pleased! Jessica was very attentive to our dog and from the pictures she sent, he seemed to settle in nicely at her house and with her dog. I would recommend her in a heart beat and plan to use her again in the future. Thank you for taking care of our fur baby.”
“John and his family were amazing with our puppy. Communication was excellent and we enjoyed the pictures and videos they sent during our trip. They took him in like a member of their family and our little dude was kept healthy and happy. We will definitely be rebooking with this wonderful family!”
“Lucy had a great stay with Carly and Doug. We got several messages and pictures during our trip, and she seemed to get along very well with them and their dog. Lots of exercise and attention. We'll definitely contact them again the next time we're going out of town. Thanks so much!”
“Gina was wonderful! Zuka felt very comfortable in her home, and had a lot of love and attention from her and her family. He's probably going to be sleepy for at least a day or two from his mini vacation. :)”
“Our dog enjoyed her stay at Katie’s! Katie was attentive to her needs and her dog got along great with ours. Katie’s home is cozy and Finley enjoyed the large backyard. I hope to be able to rebook with her in the future!”

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.
94% of sitters in Kimmswick 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 Kimmswick 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 Kimmswick.
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 Kimmswick. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 Kimmswick 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.
