“Ashley was wonderful I'm always worried with my dog but he was very content when I came to pick him up. She was even very flexible when I had to adjust my time. Very professional will definitely use again.”
“Samantha provided a safe, clean and extra loving home to our dog while we were away! She was communicative, and sent updates and photos throughout the week. I can tell our pup was so loved and well cared for!! Thank you to you and your family!!”
“Our dog absolutely loves going to Alex & Jacquelynne’s house, and they are so good with her. They are our first choice when we are needing someone to care for her.”
“Haley was an excellent Rover sitter for our daughter, Miss Pickles! She provided excellent care for Pickles and gave continual updates and pics of all of the fun Pickles was having. To our delight, Haley treated Pickles as if she were her own and, for that, we are eternally grateful. We would not hesitate to book with Haley again or to recommend her to our friends!”
About: I’ve taken care and raised dogs for over 43 years. My wife and I have always had at least 2 dogs and a cat for 40 years. I’m very experienced in potty training and basic commands along with at side walk training. Experienced in caring for elderly and mobility restricted dogs I am newly retired and love taking my dogs for walks and playing in the yard with them. I am normally at home all day and enjoy the exercise they bring me. We have a wooded large, sturdy wood fenced backyard with ample space to roam and play. Typically walks are twice a day and last for 30-45 minutes. While I allow pets on the furniture, I reinforce the owners preferences to ensure consistency. Experienced with medication administration if needed
“Christy is so wonderful! She did a great job with my cats (3 of them). I received updates and never had to wonder how they were doing. Her willingness to meet my cats quirky needs was fantastic. I'll be booking her again!”
About: I’ve had dogs all my life since I was a kid. Always been a kindred spirit with them. I’ve always owned big dogs (Weimaraners), but love dogs of all shapes and sizes. I am happy to be active with your dog or just cuddle up with them. My last baby had arthritis so I’m experienced with providing injections as well as oral medication administration. I work full time M-F but have flexibility in my schedule. I can adjust my schedule as needed. My weekends are completely open to spending time with your pet or taking them to a park. I have a large fenced backyard for plenty of room for running around. There is also a paved walking trail behind my house which is perfect for long walks. My furniture is dog friendly for any pups that want to cuddle up on the couch.
“Laura was great with my fur babies! She has a big fenced yard, toys, dog beds, great accommodations, and a big heart for furry family members. Laura sent updates and pictures throughout my dogs’ stay. She made each of them a blanket to take home, too! We will definitely have Laura watch our babies again!”
About: I have grown up with cats and dogs. I have 2 of my own cats and I have cat/dog sit multiple friends of mine. I am reliable, quick response and friendly. I am looking for part time opportunities for some extra income. I can stop by during the week at lunch time, before or after work hours. I am an engineer by a trade and mom of 1 to a wonderful toddler. I have fully fenced huge back yard and dedicated room for pet friend to stay over. I do have 2 years old human child who will be interacting with pet friends.
“Cristina was amazing! This was our first time using Rover so we didn’t know what to expect. Cristina made our three-legged fur baby feel right at home. I really appreciated the picture updates she would send us throughout the stay. Will definitely use again in the future!”
About: I’ve been having pets since I was 10 years old. So far had 3, and been watching over them plus relatives and friends. Very intentive and responsible with times of feeding them and walks as well, along with playtime! I’m currently working part time with Rover. I have availability overnight and as well any days in the day time from 3:30-overnight. Besides Saturdays are unavailable. I gently introduce myself to dogs so they can get comfortable with me. Give them treats unless ordered not to due to any sort of allergies (let me know if they do). Are able to walk around the place.
About: Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. With more than 30 years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities, I understand what it takes to keep them happy, healthy, and safe. I've owned five dogs throughout my adult life, from energetic puppies to my beloved Labrador who passed away at age 14. I currently share my home with two friendly 2-year-old dogs and have experience administering medications, bathing, brushing, basic training, and senior dog care. Whether your dog needs extra playtime, patient puppy guidance, or gentle care in their golden years, I'll treat them like one of my own. I'm home most days as a stay-at-home mom, allowing plenty of time for walks, play, and attention, with evening commitments a few days a week. My pet-friendly home features a large fenced yard, two friendly dogs, and plenty of space. Crates and gated areas are available for separation when needed.
“Lona and Alan were amazing at watching my baby! They have wonderful ideas and games for mental stimulation. They make sure to get all the details and preferences for caring for your pet, and are on top of sending updates multiple times a day so you don’t worry. I have no doubt for any future trips I’ll take that my dog will be in great hands!”
About: I’ve been caring for animals ever since i was a little girl. I started looking after pets at just 6 years old, and now at 17, I’ve had years of real hands-on experience. I grew up with my little dog Zeus, three sweet cats, and most recently I rescued a pit bull named Chico right off the streets. Because of that, I’m comfortable working with pets of all sizes and personalities. I’m great at walking and running dogs, giving baths, and most importantly, showing them love, comfort, and attention. I treat every animal like my own, and I always make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. My weekly routine looks like doing online school from 9am-2pm so i can be available after school on weekdays or on weekends i can typically do mornings better depending on your pets needs! I unfortunately do not have a yard but if your fur baby loves walks i have a lot of walking area. I always make sure pets feel safe, calm, and comfortable with me. I take time to build trust by moving at their pace, learning what they like, and giving them gentle attention. Whether I’m in your home or walking them outside, I create a positive, calm environment where your pet can relax and feel loved.
“Abigail was amazing! We needed a last minute dog sitter. She was super quick to respond and was glad to help. We were gone for a couple days. She was very communicative, sending us updates and photos throughout. Abigail clearly has a love for animals and knowledge about caring for dogs. We’re so grateful for her accommodating our last minute request and would highly recommend her to other potential clients.”
“My dog Olive had a lovely weekend with Susan! She was very responsive and sent lots of photos. I know Olive spent the whole weekend playing and got lots of attention. I will be booking with Susan again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Platte Woods
Nina and family treated our dog so well! It’s the longest we’ve ever left our dog with anyone who’s not family. We were out of the country, and Nina left messages, photos and updates that made us rest assured we had made the right choice of where to leave our pooch while gone. We would definitely recommend Nina for anyone needing a caregiver for their dog. We would gladly request her caring for our dog again!
Hands down best dog sitting experience! We have an energetic 65lb and she was treated like a queen over a 5-day period with lots of exercise and attention. Our family really appreciated the extra TLC and communication. We knew our dog was in very caring hands the whole time!

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.
95% of sitters in Platte Woods 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 Platte Woods 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 Platte Woods.
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.

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 Platte Woods 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.
