About: As an avid animal lover with six years of experience working with dogs—including those who are sick, injured, scared, or have been abused—I can accommodate any special requests to ensure your dog's comfort and happiness. My home is a safe, smoke, drug, and alcohol-free environment where your dog will feel loved and secure. Big or small, every dog is welcome! I aim to make your dog excited for every visit. Consider me to be your dog's home away from home! Early Morning (6-8 AM): I start the day with potty breaks and individual or group walks based on compatibility and needs. Provide fresh water and food according to each dog’s specific dietary plan. Late Morning (10 AM-12 PM): Engage in playtime, which could include fetch, puzzle toys, or simply supervised free play in a secure area followed by supervised outside time. Afternoon (2-4 PM): Quiet time for rest or individual attention like grooming, brushing, or cuddles. This helps reduce anxiety and provides a calm environment. Evening (6-8 PM): Dinner service, followed by a final walk to allow for potty breaks before bedtime. * Night (9-10 PM): Final check to ensure all dogs are comfortable, have access to water, and are securely settled for the night. Address any late-night needs like anxiety or discomfort. My top priority is creating a safe, fun, and comfortable environment for every dog in my care. Each day includes structured playtime, regular walks, and plenty of opportunities for socialization, tailored to their individual energy levels and personalities. I provide nutritious meals, fresh water, and cozy resting spots to ensure their physical needs are met. Most importantly, I offer constant attention, affection, and a watchful eye to make sure each dog feels secure, loved, and right at home during their stay.

“Autumn is amazing! She was easy to communicate with and was flexible with my schedule. Bodhi was excited to meet her & really loved their walks together. I will certainly be reaching out to her next time I need some help!”

About: Hi! My name is Sarah C. - and I'm a big fan of doggo's large n small. My partner and I recently got a pup in January of 2020. I have learned So Much about positive reinforcement dog training and the science behind it and I'm so glad I did. I'm realizing what a lack of dog services - especially positive reinforcement services - we have around here. I feel like I can help out with this and have fun. I've never lived in a home without dogs and I also used to be a groomer a lifetime ago between the ages of 18 and 20 (I stopped when I went back to college). I am by no means a trainer but I will only implement positive reinforcement methods when working with your animal. I'm a caring and respectful person and would love to help out with your dog watching needs.

About: I have had dogs since I was a small child and have loved them ever since, all dogs deserve to be loved and I love all dogs! I do not currently work a job and am looking at a way to find some way to find money and being able to be around dogs is the best way to do so! I have a fenced yard, 4 dogs who absolutely love being able to make new friends with other dogs, I also love to do some small training if needed treats as rewards!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all kinds for years. I’ve helped potty train puppies. I do some obedience training. My facility is state inspected. My hours are flexible. My husband and I are dog lovers. Your dog will be treated with much love and care Since my facility is State Inspected all dogs must be up to date on all vaccines. A bordetella vaccine is a plus! During the school year I drive a school bus so I’m home most of the day and every evening. Summers I’m home all day and evening. I have a fenced in back yard. Plenty of toys, and treats. We have play time and rest time. Pets are fed on a schedule that owner specifies.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. I grew up with big dogs and would help take care of family friends’ dogs and such. I also have worked at a doggy daycare, taking care of up to 25 dogs at a time. I also volunteered as a dog walker at the humane society I’m currently home for the summer and have pretty open availability. I’m happy to wake up early or stay up to take care of a dog and I already like to get my walks in! I like to get to know the pet and tailor my care towards them. If they’re more active then I’ll play fetch outside or tug of war. If they’re more subdued then I’ll snuggle or play more gently

About: I was raised with lots of puppies and other animals. I have two fur babies now, Oakley and Remi! I would love to visit your babies and keep them company while you are away from them. I work full time but have a couple days off a week on a rotating schedule. I am willing to travel and make our schedules work together as best as possible. Leaving your pets is very difficult but I would love to be able to help ease your worries! I am responsible and trustworthy. You would not have to worry about the job not getting done.

About: I've taken care of all ages of dogs. I have provided training and care for dogs of all ages. Bathing, walking, training, general care. I have also worked professionally training and caring for dogs for the government. I am currently working part time. I am available anytime all week as long as there is notice. I go to the gym Monday to Friday but only for an hour or two a day. I live on a farm in the country. With two friendly dogs at home. For boarding I can either allow my dogs around yours or not, your preference.

About: I've been a Rover sitter for over four years, and I've enjoyed all the different breeds and personalities I've gotten to interact with! I have experience administering medication and caring for elderly pets. My husband and I recently added an Australian Shepherd to our family, and she loves getting to meet and play with new friends. Since I work from home, I'm able to provide quite a bit of interaction for your dog(s), and we'll prioritize playtime and walks. During my time with Rover, I've gained experience working with puppies, small breeds, and a lovely Great Dane. Whatever your situation is, I can't wait to meet your pups! I'm happy to schedule a meet and greet before we book any services to ensure that you're comfortable and at ease that your dog will have an enjoyable stay.

About: I have had dogs since I was very little. I have been put in charge of taking care and training the family pups since I was 12, so I am very comfortable with dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I currently have two dogs of my own. One is very energetic, and the other is a big couch potato. Because of the difference in energy levels, I have to be creative to make sure they're both happy and get good stimulation. One of my fur babies is a little on the anxious side, so I have some experience for the more reactive pups. I have experience giving oral medication to dogs as well as caring for elderly/injured doggos. I have had some experience with training my own family puppies; however I would love to receive guidance from the puppy(ie)'s owner as well. I have grown up around cats as well. I have always loved playing with them, giving them pets, or giving them their space (if that's what they prefer) I will make sure your buddies are comfortable and happy :) I am 22 and a student at Missouri S&T. I return to Rolla on Monday (Aug 1). I signed up on rover to make extra cash and also make new pet friends! I have a decent amount of time on my hands, and I love meeting new fur babies. I have time in the mornings, mid-day, and evenings. I currently am not providing in home services. I live with my two dogs and 5 other family members. As of right now, we do not have the accommodations for another pet friend.

About: I understand each pet is unique and your attachment to them is something that can't be described. I will send pictures and updates while I'm watching them. Service dogs are trained in a certain way and I have experience with training and caring for service dogs. I will give your pet the individual attention that it craves. Leaving your baby is hard to do but I will try my hardest to make it feel like I'm part of your pets family. I will never force a situation where you or your pet is uncomfortable. I am accommodating and patient. I'm currently a caregiver to my in-laws which allows me the flexibility and time to spend time with your babies when you can't be there. I can easily crate dogs when needed and more than happy to roll around on the floor to play with them. I have a ball obsessed dog so I understand throwing the ball repeatedly.

About: I have had pets my entire life, primarily cats as well as a few dogs. I currently have a dog and cat, so taking care of either is second nature. I have also had two cats at one time and understand the nature of multi-cat households. I have pet sat many times for friends and family. These include homes with multiple dogs, multiple cats, a mix, and even a snake. Reptiles and rodents don't bother me! These experiences have also included long-term stay (1 week+) and animals with additional care needs (senior, daily eye drops, diabetic with necessary insulin injections at meals). I am currently in vet tech school so I know what to look for to keep your pets safe! I also have experience volunteering in shelters with many animals of different temperaments. I am currently not working and doing school online! This allows me to have a very flexible schedule so I am able to accept same day requests! I live with my partner so he is able to care for our pets while I am away. Because I have pets of my own, I don't currently accept jobs that would require me to keep them in my home. As such, I am more than happy to stay with your pets the entire time you are away (unless we discuss any time I may have preplanned events). I would stay the night with them if you are gone overnight so we don't have any accidents or stress! I would do my best to uphold any schedule you already have in place (ie feeding, walks, medicine, bedtime).

About: Can work with you in any situation. I Have owned all kinds of pets. I Love all animals. My home boarders the Rolla walking trail near Lions Club Park . I own 3 acres of land. Please come by, all are welcome to come meet our family any time. My wife works for Missouri S & T and I am a US Navy Veteran and home all day. I am willing to work price for all. I know how hard it is to board your pets and you will have no worries while your loved one is with us. Your pet will be treated like ours. We can supply food, but if your pet needs special food you will have to provide it. Look forward to meeting all the new owners and pets. Thank you! I am retired and love taking care of pets, instead of seeing them go to kennels. Love to play and enjoy pets of all kinds I am next to the walking trail in Rolla, it makes for walking the pets very useful. I have 3 acres of my own also

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 10 years old for family and friends alike. I’ve worked with dogs, cats, birds, fish, reptiles, ferrets, etc. I love working with animals and I love to ensure their health and happiness :3 You can trust me to keep your loved one safe. I’m available weekdays to check in the mornings, and afternoons as I am a student, although only 12 credit hours. Weekends I can constantly check up on them. First it’s very important that I have the pets trust. Then I can work with the pet and adapt to the style of care it needs most, wether that be constant attention and play, a firm and strict attitude, or a light hearted touch.

About: My experience with animals is over 15 years. From walking/ feeding and watering/ playing fetch/ to giving medicine when needed. Your babies from young to old are given the best in my care. I'm a stay at home mom so I have plenty of time to care for your babies! The town I live is small and quiet so your pup should be extra cozy here. I have a cozy shaded (with plenty of room to move about) pen where your pup will stay when I'm not supervising them in the big fenced yard or talking walks.

About: I have taken care of animals of all kinds since I was a child. I have experience training puppies and caring for senior dogs or dogs with special needs. You will be able to feel confident that your pet will be kept happy and comfortable. I can’t wait to meet your pet! I currently have a flexible schedule, so we can work out a plan based on your pets needs. I am happy to do my best to accommodate short notice requests. Pets will be welcome to roam the house, or they can be gated or kenneled depending on pet needs and owner preference. Will adhere to pets normal potty schedule and provide exercise multiple times a day. Your pet will receive lots of positive attention to relieve stress from a new environment.
