“Dylan was fantastic with communicating with us-he responded very quickly! The dogs had room to run and play with other dogs which was wonderful. We felt our dogs were well taken care of and we didn’t have to worry about them when we left them there!! I would recommend Dylan to anyone! We appreciated the care he gave our dogs!!!”
“Deserae is a wonderful caregiver to my dog. He has stayed with her multiple times. Bear always comes home clean, healthy and very happy! She even sends cute photos to let me see how Bear is doing while I’m away. I highly recommend her services!”
“Emma was AMAZING! Our shy dog took to her and her daughter right away. We needed a last minute booking and she was great at being flexible. She gave him lots of cuddles and reassurance. We would definitely book again if in the area. Thank you for taking so good care of Finley.”
“They really treated our Marley like family! She has anxiety and they really made sure to ask us about every little detail to make her week just like home! We'll 100% return when Marley needs care again.”
“Linda is the absolute best. She was great with my dog and treated him as her own. Communication was great and she sent pictures as promised. Would absolutely recommend and use again. Thank you Linda!!”
“Kim went above and beyond to accommodate drop off time. Our pup, Thorin, was comfortable enough to eat his food around Kim and her family. It was the first time we've used Rover and the bar is set high. Thank you, Kim and family!!! We will be keeping her in mind when we need petsitting again.”
“Mikala was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of Remy and treated her like part of the family. She sent lots of pictures and updates throughout the stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear Remy was happy and comfortable. Mikala was also incredibly flexible and understanding when my drop-off plans changed multiple times, and her communication was excellent from start to finish. She even reached out after I picked Remy up because she found one of Remy’s bowls and offered to ship it back to me. That level of thoughtfulness really meant a lot. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter, and I would absolutely trust Mikala with Remy again. Highly recommend!”
“Cortney and her family are amazing and took wonderful care of Ri! There was great communication including messages, photos and videos. Ri was happy with his stay and to meet his new friends!”
“We left our dog here for the weekend with Laura and Nash and Laura sent us videos and pictures the entire time! Ozzy had a great time and is pooped from playing all weekend. She even brushed him before we picked him up, which was super nice! Will definitely use Laura again :)”
“Jackie and Mike are fantastic pet sitters. They did such a wonderful job with our German Shepherd. After our Meet and Greet, I knew I wouldn't worry about leaving Charli in their care. It was obvious from the start that they love dogs!! They are both warm and friendly and took extra time to answer all our questions and listen to all our concerns. They had no problem with Charli's special diet and medications. It was so nice that they took the time to send photos of Charli. It was reassuring to see that she was enjoying her stay and playing with their dogs. Don't hesitate to use them because they are awesome!!”
About: Walking, bathing, and hanging out with dogs is some of my favorite downtime activities. Growing up with a dog I learned all the necessary skills to watch over a dog. I even volunteered at the humane society in both the dog and cat area for four years! I am currently a teacher so I work from 7-4pm Monday through Friday, but if you need someone to walk your dog at night or house sit for the weekend or even a week night, I am your person! My husband also works from home so if you’re boarding during the week day he is also here to help out if needed. Whatever you need me to do is what I will follow. I will come to your place as my animals do not take well to strangers. But rest assured I will take great care of your animal, in whatever capacity you need. At our home we two cats that do well with other dogs but tend to ignore them, and one dog who LOVES other dogs so no worries there.
“Sabrina is fabulous! We were updated regularly on how our dog was doing while we were away, which I SO appreciated! Her attention to our "second child" allowed us to enjoy our vacation even more! We will for sure use her again and HIGHLY recommend!”
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and have been caring for dogs since I was young. I’ve helped friends, family, and neighbors with feeding, walking, playtime, and check-ins, and I understand how much trust goes into leaving your pet with someone else. I’m especially comfortable with young and energetic dogs and enjoy working on basic training using patience and positive reinforcement. I currently train my own young dog and have experience teaching commands like sit, stay, lay down, shake, and middle. I’ll treat your pet like my own and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and love while you’re away. I’m currently a student with classes from 8 AM–12 PM, so I’m available most afternoons, evenings, and weekends. I have flexibility for drop-ins, walks, and playtime after class, and I’m available for boarding on weekends. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and provide plenty of attention, exercise, and care while you’re away. I live in a safe, pet-friendly apartment where pets can be comfortable and supervised during their stay. I’m also happy to provide care in your home for pets who are more comfortable in their own environment. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my apartment or visiting your home, I’ll follow their normal routines, including feeding, potty breaks, walks, medications, and playtime. I’ll treat your pet, home, and belongings with care and respect while making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved.
“Debbie is amazing! My dogs loved it there. She has so much experience with dogs being together all at once that it put me at ease when I was out of town. Very professional.”

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.
96% of sitters in Possum Trot 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 Possum Trot 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 Possum Trot.
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 Possum Trot. On Rover:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 Possum Trot 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.
