“Shaina and Imogen were great! We had a last minute booking and she was super accommodating. Finley loved her time over there! Will definitely be booking with her in the future!”
“Sarah was an absolute pleasure to work with. My pup was in great hands and thoroughly enjoyed his stay. I was kept up to date of their adventures with texts and photos, and never doubted that my boy was in good hands. Sarah will be my first choice in the future. Im so glad to have someone to trust and rely on to take care of my pup. Thank you so much Sarah!”
“Judith is the best! She always does a great job watching my dog and goes above and beyond. Always gives frequent updates and has great communication. She clearly cares a lot about the animals she is taking care of.”
“Nicole and Tim were absolutely great! Good communicators and sent photos and updates throughout our dogs stay. She can be a little particular but settled in immediately and it felt like she got her own vacation while we were on ours. Will definitely book them again!”
“We had a great experience with Marie and her family! She was available to do a meet and greet before we left Cooper with her for a long weekend and was very flexible on drop off and pick up timing. We got updates throughout the weekend and Cooper came home absolutely exhausted, a sure sign of a good time. We like that he was able to get a lot of interaction with the kids, and they all seemed to like helping out. We will definitely have Marie on our list next time we need a place for Cooper to stay.”
“Once again Cynthia has shined !!! I couldn't be happier with the service they provided. She kept me updated throughout the stay with photos and texts, which put my mind at ease. I highly recommend Cynthia to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter, they are truly wonderful. Would definitely use again.”
“Dustin and Maggie are terrific! They are so nice and treated our pup, Chico, like their own. We got lots of pictures and Chico had a great time! Highly recommend! Chico is already looking forward to his next visit.”
About: I have been taking care of dogs my whole life. My sweet Charlie passed in 2024 and to fill the void, I am now taking care of other people's pets. I am able to administer meds or whatever is needed. I work from home, so I am very flexible in my schedule. I can go to your house for boarding, or your pets can stay here. I love having toys around for the pups to play with. Very pet friendly environment. I do not have any other pets in my home. I only have one booking at a time. I want to make sure to give your fur babies all the love they deserve. Its only me at my home. My son is in college.
“We can’t say enough wonderful things about Katie! They took such amazing care of our sweet Abby while we were away. From the very beginning, they were kind, attentive, and professional, and we felt completely at ease leaving Abby in their care. Abby can be a little shy at first, but she warmed right up thanks to Katie’s gentle and patient approach. We loved receiving updates and pictures while we were gone — it was such a relief knowing Abby was happy, comfortable, and loved. When we picked her up, Abby was relaxed, content, and clearly well cared for. It’s such a comfort to know we’ve found someone who treats her like family. We highly recommend Katie to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter — we are so grateful!”
“Sure! Here's a polished version of your message: --- Monica took absolutely wonderful care of my dog—truly as if he were her own. She was easy to coordinate with for drop-off and pick-up, sent great photos of him enjoying all his favorite activities, and provided thoughtful updates whenever I asked about how he was adjusting to a new environment and caregiver. I would recommend her without hesitation!”
“Beth watched our 14 yr old Yorkie and 13 mos old “very spirited” Cavapoo. She is very knowledgeable and passionate about dogs and was able to creatively channel our Cavapoo’s energy. We actually learned a few things ourselves. Her daughter and son were so polite and helped make sure our dogs had an enjoyable stay. We appreciated the pictures, text, and videos Beth sent on how well our dogs were doing. This was our first experience with Rover and would highly recommend Beth!”
“Our dog had a great time with Julia. When we picked her up she was super happy and tuckered out from playing. Julia was easy to communicate with for planning drop off and pick up. She has a very welcoming home and a HUGE yard for the dogs to play in. Would recommend her without a doubt.”
“Brian and Abigail are so kind and caring with my dog! Their family has watched him two times now and they treat him as their own. They send frequent videos and photos of him throughout the day! Their kindness and attention makes me trust them fully and I hope to continue booking with them. Their family is so sweet and caring and I would highly recommend them!!”
“Benjamin was super quick in his communications and was flexible in drop off/pick up times. Buddy made himself right at home as was evident through the pics Benjamin sent to keep me updated. Buddy will be happy to stay with him in the future!”
“Asia was so sweet and professional. When we first arrived Asia and her fur baby Crypto welcome us. Asia made my lil boy (Biskit) feel so at home. I asked Asia to send me text, pictures, and videos, and she did just that. That really made my heart fill of joy to see pictures and videos of my lil boy(Biskit) and to know that he was well taken care of. We thank you so much Asia from the bottom of our hearts 💕 Sylvia and Antwon Dudley.”

I just retrieved my happy & healthy dog from a long weekend with Sue. This was the 2nd time she's watched him. Both times have been wonderful. I receive updates with photos, and he gets his favorite activities- sunbathing & walking. My dog is a trickster, but her yard is securely fenced in. 5⭐️!
We can’t say enough wonderful things about Brian, Abigail and their entire family. Both our dogs absolutely LOVE being with their family and I know they are being given exceptional care and love. Having Brian and Abigail watch our pups has made traveling so much more enjoyable for us becuss we
I've asked Alycia to take Pixie many times and it's always a great experience. Pixie loves staying with her and comes back super tired from the boarding. 5 out of 5 stars. Highly recommended. I think Alycia has boarded Pixie at least 5 or 6 times now with the same high level of care and communication.
Reema was lovely! She took care of our dog Chi Chi while we were on a long vacation and gave daily updates. Chic Chi also had a playmate as Reema has a small dog herself who’s was as welcoming and friendly as the owners. Chi Chi got plenty of love, affection and playtime and returned home a happy pup. Highly recommend!
Laura and Patrick were phenomenal dogsitters for us--they took such great care of Teddy and have a beautiful backyard. We appreciated the pictures and updates while we were out of town. They went above and beyond to get special dog food and a prescription from our vet when our dog dealt with "stress colitis" from being away from us and they handled it all in stride. We are so grateful we found them--it was our first time using Rover and we were really happy with the entire experience!
Sarah took great care of our golden retriever, Phoenix, while we took a brief vacation. He fit in well with her dog, and we got many great pictures from Sarah to update us while we were away. We were super comfortable with our dog's stay even though we had never left him with anyone before. I heartily recommend Sarah for you and your dog.

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 1,132 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Kirkwood. About 93% of Kirkwood 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.
