“Isa is amazing! Bernie loved staying with her and came come happy & tired from all of the play and attention she received. Thankful to have found Isa and will be highly recommending her to others!”
“Hailie and Alex did a wonderful job looking after Yodi during our brief stop in St. Louis! We were a bit worried about how long it would take him to feel comfortable in a new environment, but based on the pictures they sent and how quickly he fell asleep after being picked up, he had an enjoyable and eventful day! Not only was it clear that Hailie truly loves animals, but their dog Evie was playful with Yodi and helped get all his energy out. We definitely recommend if you're looking for a positive experience for your pet!”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I was 5 years old. In high school, I was the one people called to watch their pets when out of town. At 18, I got my first non family dog and self trained her for the AKC good citizen test. At that point I became the friend everyone called to help train their dogs. I have fostered bottle babies all the way to senior animals with complex medical needs. I also have experience working with reactive and fearful dogs. I am also experienced in dispensing medication. My current dog has a spinal condition and gets medication twice daily. My soul dog was in palliative care for the last five months of her life and I learned a lot about basic canine first aid. My current dog has traveled with me extensively. He’s been to 13 states and roadtrips with me through Mexico. I think there is a care plan for every animal. I look forward to treating your pet like they are part of the family. I work full time from home, but have a very flexible daytime schedule. I am able to take breaks as often as needed with no issue. I currently walk my dog at 5am and 10pm to avoid daytime heat and give him bathroom breaks every 2-4 hours. I learned a long time ago that routine is best for most pets. My dog does for two 45 minute walks a day, and meals twice a day. When hosting another pup, your pups schedule will be continued. Even if it’s different from my dogs. They will be fed and crated separately. If your dog is less social I have plenty of space to keep the pups separate, if needed. When dog sitting in your home, my dog will head to do board and train lessons or stay with a friend. My routine will shift to match what your dog is used to.
About: Hi! I’m Hannah—a lifelong dog lover and proud dog mom to a sweet 9-year-old fur baby who’s taught me all about patience, routines, and unconditional love. I know how personal it feels to trust someone with your pet and your home, and I treat both with great care and respect. I offer in-home drop-in visits and walks to keep your fur babies happy, comfortable, and on their normal routine. From fun walks, to belly rubs, I bring calm energy, lots of love, and attention to the little things—so you can come home to a relaxed, happy pup I’m here to keep your fur family happy, comfy, and loved while you’re away 💕🐾 I work from home 3 - 4 days a week. I will never accept a sitting job if I can’t stay with them all day! I love bringing my laptop outdoors and allowing the animals to play and run around. On days when I go into work (always Tuesdays) I’m available for morning and evening walks I take my fur baby to K9 Garden at least once a week. I’d love for yours to join us for some fun in the sun! I am experienced in providing medications and using crates if necessary. The most important thing is that everyone is safe and your pup goes hope happy (and tired!) I am happy to accommodate your pet however you feel is right!
About: Hi! I’m Juanita and I grew up with my dad always saying, “if you find someone who’s not good with dogs, they're not good with people either.” I have had dogs since I have a memory, thanks to that I've always been around the good people. Everyone in my family has dogs and I sit for them whenever they need it. My work is very flexible so I have time to go out for walks or stay home with my furry friends. Sometimes I work only one or two hours a day so I need something to do the rest of the day. Nugget is very well trained and doesn’t give anyone any trouble. He’s a people pleaser and only interacts with dogs if they want to play catch. We go on big walks, then play and then nap.
“I just got my first dog and was super nervous having someone watch him for the first time. Jeanne made it much easier and I feel very comfortable letting her watch my pup. I will be booking her again!”
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I could walk. A home is incomplete without an animal or two. I completed one year of vet tech school and familiar with pet training I work from home full-time. I walk my walk 2-3 times a day around the neighborhood. My work schedule is flexible to allow pet catering I have a fenced backyard. One very friendly platt hound mix and 2 dog-friendly cats dog and cats always have fresh water. Yard is treated for ticks/fleas and mosquitoes.
“Lorri took such great care of Charlotte and kept us updated through the day. We so appreciate your loving care & look forward to Charlotte’s next stay with you! Thank you so much!!”
“Lots of communication and updates, Mango got along well with their dog, Sable, as well. Daycare card was very informative and everything was taken care of for Mango. Would highly recommend.”
“Frances is an amazing, caring and reliable pet sitter. I would trust her to take care of Cooper anytime! She also updated me with many pictures throughout the day, which I loved! I would 10/10 recommend Frances to be your dog sitter!”
The median cost per day for doggy day care in Maplewood is $30
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Maplewood
We have been sending our dog to Ashley and Philip for the past couple of weeks for the occasional days when we both need to be in the office, and it has been a great experience. Our fur baby has a lot of separation anxiety, so we were looking for a situation that would give him more of a homey feel and plenty of human interaction, rather than being one of many dogs left to play in the backyard. When we pick him up, he always seems relaxed and happy. There are kids and a few other dogs for him to interact and play with, but we really appreciate that they limit how many dogs they take at a time so it doesn't become overwhelming for him. We feel like he gets plenty of attention while still having the opportunity to socialize and have fun. We hope to continue having him go there to play and spend time whenever we need someone to care for him. We’re so happy we found Ashley and Philip!
Marie was fantastic with Bailey. She sent photo updates, had a great yard to keep the dog safe and her family all took time to play and keep Bailey occupied. I'd book her again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter.
Nicole and Tim are the best!!! They have really kind, positive, calm energy and my black lab immediately loved them. They were super responsive and easy to coordinate with, and their setup is perfect. Their yard is great with a nice high fence, and as someone whose dog gets into everything I really appreciated how neat and clean their apt was. Most importantly though, Darcy had a great time and seemed very happy and relaxed. 10/10, highly recommend. We will definitely use again!
Daniela took wonderful care of our pup! She was super flexible and has the most adorable puppy, Lucky, who played amazingly well with Ellie! She would pull me to their door as soon as she caught sight of Lucky which is a great sign of how she loved being there! She is usually picky the first 2 days with a new sitter but Daniela figured out how to get her food tooo. Highly recommend Daniela and Lucky!
Mariah was very nice. She has a large yard for the dogs to run and play. She calmed my nerves when I was worried about my dog being without me for the first time, and Koda seemed to have had a good time when I picked him up! Mariah was also very flexible with my pick up and drop off time and even changed the date of our doggy day care due to travel changes and last minute issues that arose. She was fairly quick to respond to me with any questions.

The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Maplewood is $33 per day as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $21 and $61 per day. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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 Maplewood 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 October 2026, there are 697 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 .
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 , 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 .
