About: I’ve owned many pets, cats and dogs included. I currently own dogs, and I spend most of my day, everyday, with them. They’re my people.

I have a large home with a large privacy fenced yard. I also have several crates, or you can bring your own if you like. I have ample food in case you forget to bring your own. I will allow your pets to hang out with me wherever I am in the house and take them out frequently for restroom breaks to the backyard . I also have a room designated just for dogs with a TV, dog couch, and toys. I have gates to block stairways for dogs that don’t do well on stairs. Basically I have everything you need to provide a safe, comfortable, and happy environment for pets!
“Shawn is amazing with my dog Riley. Riley can be very anxious around new people, but she took to Shawn very quickly. He was helpful and patient throughout the whole process, from the meet and greet through the first daycare session. He sent me photos and updates throughout the day to let me know she was doing well. She was very happy when I picked her up! As long as Shawn is dog sitting, he will be in my go-to dog sitter!”

“My babies absolutely love going to doggy daycare at Sharon and Mike's! They always come home exhausted and happy. If you have small dogs, do yourself (and your pocketbook) a favor and use Sharon for daycare and boarding instead of an expensive pet resort or vet!”
“Lesli was so accommodating letting Maverick be dropped of early in the morning since I am a nurse! Mav had such a great time at her house!! He played outside and had fun with her dog Tank. We will definitely be using Lesli again for daycare. Maverick came home happy and tired!”
About: My husband and I recently moved to KC and are looking for ways to give our dog some company and satisfy our love for additional dogs. We spend every minute with our 6 year old Lab/German Shepard, Mia, and treat her like our child! We have been thinking of getting another dog, so this role can fulfill our need/love for all the dogs and give our pup some company :) I enjoy taking our dog to the dog parks and dog bars, and fall in love with all the dogs I meet. My dog loves other dogs and would enjoy having another pup to run around with! We know how important it is to have your beloved pups taken care of when life gets busy so we wanted to be able to provide that for others ❤️ I work away from my home M-F, however when boarding at our home, my husband works from home, and is able to be with the dogs all day, everyday. Our dog roams the house as needed while we’re home, as well as while we’re gone. She loves to watch out the windows while we’re gone awaiting our return to greet us with love ❤️ We have a fenced in backyard that she claims her own!
About: I have had a dog in my life since I can ever remember. I’ve been through the good, the bad, and the ugly. My happiness comes from coming home, and getting to be with my furry friend. There is no doubt your furry friend will lack love, kisses, or cuddles with me! 1.5 years ago I got My first ever dog of my own since moving out of my parents and it has been the best experience I could ask for. Truly my best friend, and I cant wait to make many more little best friends!! I am a teacher, so I am currently on summer break. I am typically home all hours of the day, unless I have a few errands to run or go spend time with friends. I am caring for and playing with my dog at all times, and hope to care for and play with yours too! My house has a fenced in backyard- but I make sure to always keep an eye on him when he is outback. My dog has been trained to not run away when we are out front of our house. He will chase after other people out of excitement, so if people are seen in the distance walking towards we will put him inside so he can enjoy from the window:) I feed him twice a day and give him plenty exercise! We go on walks and run around out back. His favorite toy is his frisbee!
“Jaqueline was very nice and welcoming to us. We had no worries at all leaving Pepsi at her home. She also sent cute pictures for us that we greatly appreciated. We would definitely use her again.”
About: I had a dog a few years ago when I was young but unfortunately we had to let him go. My love for animals has always been strong and over the years I have regularly cared for friends’ and family’s dogs during that time, including both energetic puppies and gentle senior dogs. While I have limited experience with cats, I’m open to caring for them and excited to learn more if given the opportunity. I work a part-time job and work only 2-3 days a week so I have a pretty flexible schedule. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine, so I can accommodate a variety of needs, including extended stays or last-minute bookings. I live in a pet-friendly neighborhood with a big fenced yard. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I absolutely love animals and will make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and has a sweet, stress-free time while in my care.

“Naji watched our 3yr old weimeraner for an evening while we went to a wedding. She let us bring him over the day before for a ‘meet and greet’ with her dogs which was so helpful for us to see how they would interact. I also appreciated that she sent a few photos while we were gone. ☺️”
“Heather was very flexible and accommodating. My dog was always excited to go to her house and was well taken care of! My dog loves to play with other dogs so it was a huge plus for my dog to be able to socialize with another pet and release energy in Heather’s backyard. I would definitely recommend Heather’s services!”

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 Lake Lotawana 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.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 662 sitters in Lake Lotawana, 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 calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
