“I’m so thankful that I found Lynn & her husband to care for my little doggie while I was out of town. I greatly appreciate that they took the time to meet with me and Latte ahead of his stay. Lynn introduced her sweet doggies, Nellie & Bentley, to him and then spent about an hour letting the pups mingle as we talked about Latte. Lynn was very responsive to communication, she was flexible and kept me updated daily with texts & pictures of Latte. He was treated like a member of their family… well loved & cared for. I will definitely be leaving Latte with Lynn in the future!”

“I can’t express what a great experience we have had with our Rover sitter Madhu and Bahrath. This is our first experience placing a dog with Rover and we have been beyond pleased and overwhelmed with how well it has gone. We were gone 15 days and we received updates and photos everyday. I never thought I could find someone to house sit our dog and truly know we didn’t have to worry about him in anyway. (Well one worry that he actually would not want to come home!) They really seemed to love him like he was their own, no better compliment than that!”

“Rachel and her family are amazing! So warm and friendly that I instantly connected with them and so did my male Maltese Mickey! Mickey is treated as a member of our family so when I look for a dog sitter, I want it to be a ‘ home away from home’ experience. I am so grateful to have found this with Rachel. Mickey has stayed with them twice already and we are sure to book again in the near future. I trust that Mickey is well taken care of and appreciate the picture updates I receive. Thanks So Much, Rachel!”

About: As a lifelong dog lover with 10 years of pet care experience, I know how important it is to find someone you can genuinely trust with your furry family members! I have firsthand experience caring for multiple dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and individual needs. From energetic, playful pups who love staying active to sweet senior dogs who need a little extra patience and attention, I understand that every dog deserves care tailored to them. I’m especially familiar with senior dog care, including assisting dogs with limited mobility, maintaining medication routines, and accommodating special feeding needs. I’m comfortable managing multiple dogs, following detailed care instructions, and making sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m dependable, attentive, and a big believer in maintaining your pet’s normal routine while you’re away. Whether that means walks, playtime, extra snuggles, or simply providing a calm and comfortable environment, my goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is in caring hands. I treat every dog like they’re one of my own and understand just how much trust goes into leaving your best friend with someone new! I work remotely full-time, which gives me the flexibility to incorporate pet care into my daily routine! As a pet owner myself, I’m already accustomed to balancing work with feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I understand that every pet has their own routine, and I’m happy to work with owners to maintain as much consistency as possible. My flexible work environment also allows me to accommodate different care needs throughout the week and on weekends, depending on availability. Whether your pet needs an energetic walk, a quick check-in, or some extra companionship, I strive to provide dependable, attentive care that fits their needs! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities! As someone with multiple pets of my own, including experience caring for senior dogs with mobility challenges and specialized routines, I understand how important it is to provide a safe, attentive, and loving environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to respect their space, follow all instructions carefully, and maintain their pet’s established routine. I’m comfortable managing multiple pets, administering owner-provided medications according to instructions, accommodating special feeding schedules, and providing additional assistance to senior pets. I believe communication is essential to building trust, so I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos throughout each visit. I also take time to understand each pet’s personality, boundaries, and individual needs to ensure they feel comfortable and secure. My goal is simple: to care for your pets with the same patience, responsibility, and affection that I give my own!

About: Hi! My name is Destinee, and I’m currently saving for my wedding while doing something I genuinely love, caring for animals. I’ve grown up around dogs, cats, chickens etc. and understand that every pet deserves patience, attention, and lots of love. Whether your dog needs a walk, playtime, drop-in visits, or overnight care, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. I’m dependable, communicative, and will make sure you receive updates and photos while you’re away so you can have peace of mind. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I’d love the opportunity to care for yours. Every booking helps me work toward my wedding, and I’m incredibly grateful for your support! I own and operate my own cleaning business, which gives me a flexible schedule to provide dependable pet care throughout the week. With advance notice, I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting on weekdays and weekends. I understand how important routines are, so I’ll always communicate clearly, arrive on time, and make sure your pet receives the love, attention, and care they deserve while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fenced-in backyard where dogs can safely play under supervision. I also have chickens, a friendly cat, and two children who have been raised to be gentle and respectful with animals. I understand that not every pet is comfortable around other animals or children, so I’ll always discuss your pet’s personality and needs beforehand to make sure it’s the right fit. I’m happy to follow feeding schedules, administer basic care, crate your dog if requested, and provide plenty of love, playtime, and photo updates while you’re away.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Lyon

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 219 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Lyon. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.

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 Lyon 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 Lyon 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 Lyon.

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 Lyon. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 98% 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 Lyon 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.
