About: Hey friends! 🐾 For over 3 years, I’ve gained hands-on experience caring for dogs through Rover, working alongside an experienced, highly rated sitter behind the scenes. During that time, I’ve had the opportunity to care for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities, building the knowledge and confidence needed to provide safe, reliable, and personalized care. I’ve decided to create my own Rover profile to offer my services independently and connect with more families in the Joplin area! I’m an active, dependable, and hardworking individual who enjoys staying busy and spending time outdoors. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or simply having someone around for companionship, I’m happy to adjust to their individual needs and routines. I currently offer dog walking and drop-in visits, with the possibility of house sitting in the future. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision. That’s why I prioritize safety, consistency, communication, and attention to detail. My goal is to make sure your pets are comfortable, well cared for, and treated like family while giving you peace of mind when you’re away. I take pride in being someone you can count on, and I look forward to building lasting relationships with both you and your four-legged companions! I look forward to meeting you and your pets! 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my active lifestyle! I only work evenings a couple days a week, leaving most of my days open for walks, drop-ins, and providing thoughtful, personalized care for your pups! I prioritize providing a safe, clean, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. While I’m not currently offering boarding services, I hope to expand into boarding in the future! In the meantime, my focus is on providing dependable, attentive, and personalized care through dog walking and drop-in visits. I respect each pet’s individual needs, routines, and comfort levels, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. My goal is to give every pet the attention and care they deserve while providing owners with peace of mind knowing their furry family members are in trustworthy hands! 🐾

About: I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their family is away. I take the time to learn each pet's unique personality, routine, and needs so I can provide attentive, personalized care. Whether your pet loves playtime, long walks, cuddles, or simply having someone nearby, I want them to feel happy and at ease. I understand how important pets are to their families, and I will treat your furry family members with the same kindness, patience, and respect I would want for my own. I offer drop-in visits and house sitting, which can include feeding, refreshing water, potty breaks, walks when appropriate, playtime, companionship, and cleaning up after your pet. I am happy to follow your instructions and your pet's usual routine to help keep their day as normal and stress-free as possible. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a quiet environment and gentle affection, I will do my best to make them feel comfortable and cared for. I have been caring for pets including my own for over 5 years now. I strive to provide dependable, attentive care while making sure each pet receives the time and attention they deserve. I plan my schedule around my radiography school and PRN job so I can be reliable and consistent with visits, walks, feeding times, and other care needs. I am happy to discuss your pet's routine ahead of time to make sure we are a good fit and to help keep their day as comfortable and stress-free as possible. I will be able to spend multiple hours in the afternoon and drop in at least once in the morning during the week before school. Your pet's safety and comfort will always be a priority. I will carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, exercise, medications if applicable, household rules, and any special needs your pet may have. I will take the time to learn about your pet's behavior, routines, and any potential concerns before providing care. I respect your home and your privacy, keep pets in safe and appropriate environments, and communicate with you about how things are going. I want you to feel confident and at ease knowing your pet is being cared for with patience, kindness, and responsibility.

About: I’ve had several family dogs growing up which jumpstarted my passion and love for animals. Over a year ago I adopted my own dog from a local shelter(it was the best decision I have ever made)! Throughout high school I would pick up dog sitting gigs, where I would watch after the house and tend to the pets needs, providing love and enrichment. Im very flexible with my schedule and would love to help a fellow pet parent out! I currently am enrolled in college, and finish classes in the early afternoon and will be working a part-time job at the university. With this being said it will leave me with plenty time for your fur babies! I live in an apartment with a dog park where your furry friend is always welcome! I also have a very friendly rescue pup of my own, and she’s always looking for a new friend! Having a border collie mix, I know the importance of walks and frequent enrichment!

About: Ever since an early age I have been the one my family or friends call on for animal advice or to be the pet sitter. Animals have always been my passion and I have been taking care of the family pets since the age of 5. I have experience administering medication(pills,liquid,shots) and also have taken care of plenty of senior animals and puppies(11 at once😅). I have experience training dogs on agility courses, basic commands, crate training, hurdles, etc. I’m available to watch after your beloved pets anytime you need, as I’ve been blessed to have a pretty open schedule as of right now. I will care for your pet just like I would my own. I have a large fenced in yard that is about half an acre.

About: I’ve grown up with cats and big dogs and I love all of them. I’ve been dog sitting for close family and friends for a long time now and I truly enjoy it! I’m a full time college student working a part time job, but I still have plenty of free time to care for your pets! I’m able to make time for the dogs I have watched before. When I care for a pet in a clients home, I usually follow instructions they leave to a T. I also pay attention to the animal and anything they might need! I’m a tidy person as well, and often leave homes better than I found them.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Prosperity

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 119 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Prosperity. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

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.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Prosperity. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.

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 Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
