“Haley is wonderful, always giving me details as my little man's anxiety around new people and places lessens every day. As soon as I met her and her children I knew that they'd have a calming influence on him. So glad I found her!!”
“Zinaida and her family were wonderful and loving. They took great care of my boys and took them on several walks throughout the day. She also sent me plenty of photos and videos. I also appreciated that she was flexible with time, and accomodated to my last-minute request. I highly recommend her for dog daycare and boarding!!”
“Viki very kindly hosted our 1-year-old golden for a day of daycare after our usual daycare person had to leave town urgently. We were so happy to get all the updates and photos of all the fun that Ellie was having at Viki’s place. She was all worn out and happy after a long day of running around and play. I am so glad that we were able to find Viki at the last minute and it turned out to be such a great choice! Can’t thank Viki enough for taking such good care of Ellie!”
About: Hi, I'm Katie, and I've been a lifelong dog lover! As a work-from-home mom with two older kids (17 and 20), our house is a bustling, loving environment. We have two friendly resident dogs who would love a temporary playmate. When your dog stays with us, they'll be treated like family. What Your Dog Gets: • Nearly Constant Supervision: Because I work from home, your pet will hardly ever be left alone and will get all the attention, cuddles, and care they could ever want or need. • Daily Exercise: I am committed to a daily walk with every dog I watch, ensuring they get the physical activity they need to stay happy and healthy. • Safe Play Area: We have a nice, securely fenced-in backyard perfect for supervised playtime and bathroom breaks. • Experienced Care: I've been around animals my entire life and have experience administering medication, including oral pills and topical treatments, so you can trust your pet's health needs will be met. My family and I can't wait to welcome your dog into our home for a fun, safe, and loving stay! Pet care is naturally part of my everyday life. Between my own dog, my kids, and the dogs I care for, our days revolve around walks, playtime, feeding, and snuggles. Since I work from home, I’m able to give plenty of attention throughout the day — morning walks, midday potty breaks, and evening playtime are just part of our normal routine Your pet’s safety and happiness mean everything to me! My home is clean, cozy, and pet-friendly, with a nice fenced-in backyard where dogs can safely play and get some fresh air.
“Highly recommend Jessica. She did a great job of doggie daycare when I relocated and needed to care to bridge me during the first weeks. Will use again and recommend to all”
About: Fully Vaccinated / Masked Hi there! My name is Lara, and I am a lifetime animal lover and cat mom based in the Bevo Mill neighborhood of St Louis. I'm a full time work-from-home graphic designer, illustrator, and contracted artist. This means I get to make my own schedule and can always guarantee that I will be there for you and your pet! I'm a very proactive pet provider in that I always take the time to get to know an animal's personality and quirks before agreeing to take them on as a client. In my spare time I love to explore local parks for the best trails and spots and regularly volunteer at animal rescues around the city, as well as tending to my "indoor jungle" and snuggling with my kitty, Garbage! Because I am able to make my own schedule, I have a flexible hours to accommodate the needs of your pet's regular routine while you are away. "Leave it better than you found it," is my life's motto. I am a neat, quiet, organized person that most animals gravitate towards. Routine is the goal!
About: Charismatic and outgoing animal lover with 16 years experience owning pets, and hundreds of hours volunteering at the humane society in 3 different states. I grew up with cats, but could not own a dog until I moved out on my own, so I quickly got my first baby Alice the first chance I could. My fur babies include a 13 year old sweet beagle mix, Alice 🌈 and two gentle loving cats, Poppy and Millie. All of my animals have been around other animals their whole lives and get along with all creatures. I prefer not to board cats, but can keep your cat in a closed bedroom for their stay. I would love to open my doors to help out families in need of a more personal way to board their pets when they are away. Your animals must get along with cats and small children. I have a very flexible schedule so I have the ability to care for your pet throughout the day, depending on your pets individuals needs. My pets have free range of the house. Visitors dogs can be crated if needed or have free range of the house if ok left unsupervised.
“Moka had a wonderful first stay with Debby! She was so caring and loving, and kept me updated with photos and messages throughout the day, which I really appreciated. Her dog Stanley is also incredibly sweet and gentle. It was such a comfort knowing Moka was in good hands. We look forward to more stays with Debby!”
“We did a half day of daycare with Marie as an introduction (first meeting). Everything seemed to go great, and our pup was happy at pick up! We definitely plan to use Marie in the future.”
“Hailie was super friendly and easy to work with. I had a last minute booking and she worked with me to make it happen. My pups had a great time with her and her family and came home happy and ready to rest! We will be a return customer for sure! Thank you Hailie.”
About: We’ve loved meeting all kinds of dogs through Rover, whatever breed or size, and we’d love to spend time getting to know your furry friend through walks, cuddles, and just being together! We’ve had several dogs over the years from an 11 lbs. Schnoodle to an 80 lbs. GSP to now Oliver, a 50lb. mix of many breeds. (However, he can go two-doors down to my father-in-law‘s house if our furry friends don’t get along.) We hope to meet you soon. Amy currently works mostly from home with a very flexible schedule. We get up around 6AM in the morning and stay up until about 10PM. We’d love to get steps in by taking your pet for a walk! Carl also often stops home throughout the day. Wehave a screened in back deck and also a fenced in area below that is shaded. Your pet can find the perfect place to relax and enjoy, weather pending!
“Reema was amazing! Her pup and mine played so well together, it was the perfect play date! She also sent lots of pictures and updates throughout the day. I would trust Reema to watch our girl again in a heartbeat ☺️”
“Katie was everything I needed and more! Very friendly, clean home/yard, and from all the adorable photos I could tell Echo was well loved. Looking forward to many more stays.”
About: We've had dogs in our lives since we were small children. We currently have an older beagle mix who sleeps a lot and a Rough Collie who basically runs the house. We have a large fenced backyard with a dog door and after work, we take our pups walking on Grant's Trail or just around our neighborhood every day. I return from work between 3pm and 3:30pm every day. I take the dogs for a walk on Grant's Trail on most non-rainy days around 4pm. On weekends, I'm around most of the day and take walks as well. We have a fenced backyard and a dog door. Our Rough Collie loves to lay outside in the sun during the day while we're at work and watch people walk by. Our other dog sleeps most of the time.
About: I've been an animal lover my entire life and have cared for everything from reptiles to rodents to larger 4-legged creatures. I spontaneously rescued a dog 20 years ago which ended up being one of the best decisions of my life. I spent 15 years with my little buddy exploring trails, taking car rides, lazily cuddling on the couch and having lots of one-way conversations. He unfortunately passed away a happy old man but during that time, taught me patience, dedication, playfulness and gave me a special appreciation for dogs. I have vast experience being around a variety of dogs of all shapes, sizes and personality types. I overall just enjoy being around dogs and caring for them (I'm definitely that guy asking strangers if I can pet their dog ). I look forward to sitting your animals and providing you a great service if we match. I work from home in an office setting during the week so I would be around the house most of the time to keep tabs on things and for backyard potty breaks (have a fenced in backyard). During the week, I would be available before 8:00am, during my lunch break and after 4:30pm for walks or to stop by your house for check-ins. On weekends, I am not working so I would be available all day. I live next to Tower Grove Park and enjoying spending time outside or walking in the park. I have a cozy home with a small fenced-in backyard that is perfect for small to medium sized dogs. My house is tidy, quiet and currently don’t have any pets, so my home is perfect dogs who prefer that kind of environment. I generally don’t need to leave the house too often so your pet would be hanging with me most of the time. When boarding, I am able to provide two 20 minute walks per day and as many backyard potty breaks as they need.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 600 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Kimmswick. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Kimmswick commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
As of November 2026, there are 600 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of MO. Enter your address or desired location to see which available sitters are closest to you.
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.
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.
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 600 sitters in Kimmswick, 87% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
