About: Veterinary technician with clinical experience, skilled in medications, senior and anxious pet care, and recognizing illness. I am reliable, detail-oriented, and focused on low-stress handling techniques. I provide consistent, reliable care with flexible availability for drop-ins, walks, and extended visits. I’m most available Thursday through Sunday and can accommodate a wide range of scheduling needs. With a veterinary technology background, I prioritize safety and low-stress handling. I carefully follow routines, monitor for health changes, and ensure a clean, secure environment while providing attentive, compassionate care in your home.
About: I treat every pet like family and understand that no two animals are the same. I have hands-on experience with puppies, senior dogs, and pets with special medical needs. I’m trained in administering oral and injectable medications, and I’m patient, consistent, and attentive to behavior cues. I’ve also raised my own pets and cared for high-energy breeds that need extra playtime and structure. Whether your dog needs gentle care or active engagement, I tailor each visit to their comfort level and routine. Caring for animals is a natural part of my everyday life. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets the attention and consistency they deserve. Whether it’s morning walks, midday playtime, or evening snuggles, I can easily adapt to your pet’s routine. I love being active and outdoors, so daily walks and check-ins are something I genuinely look forward to. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment. In my home, pets have plenty of space to relax, play, and feel comfortable—plus lots of snuggles and attention throughout the day. I stick closely to their normal routine for feeding, potty breaks, and bedtime so they feel secure and at ease. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect and care I’d want for my own. I follow all instructions closely, keep things tidy, and send regular updates with photos so you always know how your pet is doing.
About: My wife and I are both new to Quincy! I was born in Quincy but moved to California and now we’re back here for a while. We are both working from home/going to school so someone will always be there to love your baby! We have both had a lot of experience with dogs of either a small or medium size. I myself have a lot of experience with kittens! We currently have a 12 month old kitten named Eevee who is so sweet and absolutely loves to spend time with her cousin dogs who come to stay with us occasionally. She loves to be around people and other animals so much and would love to have other friends to play with as she has a lot of energy! We live in the third floor of my grandmas house where there is a lot of space, along with the big yard to run around in! Working from home/studying means there is always one of us home every day of the week! This means we’ll have so much time to love on your baby and give it all the walks, backyard time, belly rubs and attention they thrive! There is a big yard surrounding the house along with a wrap-around porch and plenty of hammock/chairs to hang out in. We’re both very active, so we would like to be able to take your doggy out for walks/runs with us!
About: My husband and I have taken care of dogs for over 50 years. We have a fenced in back yard, We prefer one or two dogs at time, as our house is smaller. We will not watch Beagles , as we have had so bad luck with them. Pets must come with their current dog tags. My husband and I are retired. We go camping every couple of weeks in the summer. We do not travel much, and would love to watch your dog. We have a fenced in backyard. Two back porches, and can either kennel your dog or let them roam our house. Would rather have dogs no bigger than 40 pounds as our house is small. Our male Aussie gets along with other dogs. I can bathe and brush your dog if needed.
About: I have a golden doodle who is 3 and a miniature poodle who went to doggy heaven a few weeks ago. I love dogs and treat them as well as I do my daughter. Haha!! They have the run of the house and a fenced in area to hang out and play in. Would love to have your pets!! I work fulltime at the hospital 3 12’s/week. Will be home until 10:45am each morning. My daughter will come by when she is off work which is around 4pm daily to let them out to run and go potty. I will then walk them when I get home and play with them for a few hours. This will be good for my dogs as he needs companions and friends as I’m sure yours do too! I have a fenced in area in my backyard and a doodle that will play and keep your pets content while they are at my house.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Palmyra on Rover is $27.75 per day (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 Palmyra 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, you can find sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. Many sitters can respond to messages in under an hour.
To find the fastest available match, message multiple sitters with a recent "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.
