“Jade was a very great fit to watch and take care of Dozer! She kept me up dated and sent me pictures of him! I will definitely recommend her and use her again if I go on! Dozer is very happy and sleepy after his couple night stay with her!”
“Dave was absolutely PHENOMENAL with our 4 year old German Shepherd dog. We are very over protective with our fur child and read every previous review Dave had before choosing him. We could not have been happier with her stay and will most definitely be utilizing his services again! We had ZERO concerns about Remi while we were on vacation!”
“Nikki is AMAZING and I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a Rover sitter! She goes above and beyond to make sure your fur children are safe, happy, and entertained while in her care. Quigley loves going to boarding or daycare with Nikki and her fur babies! Plus Quigley always comes back to me tired from all of the play and fun he has had! Can’t wait for our next stay with Nikki”
“Sherry was great! She was very kind, easy to communicate with, and kept us updated with pictures throughout the stay. Our dog instantly loved being there, I could tell he was very well taken care of.”
“Shane was awesome! He kept us updated the entire time with pictures and videos. He has a really nice yard that Leo LOVED. I never seen him so happy. 100% worth the drive. He really care for Leo. He even brought him out to us and gave Leo goodbye kisses!”
About: My husband and I will be working together to host doggy day care and boarding. With both of our schedules we will have plenty of time to spend with your pets! Hi, I’m Bree! Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and for the past 8 years I’ve worked professionally caring for them in many different settings. I spent 5 years working as a veterinary technician, giving me experience with medications, animal behavior, emergency situations, and CPR. I’ve worked with small animals, exotics, wildlife, and large animals, and I’ve also fostered countless puppies and kittens over the years. Because of my background, I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs — whether that means an energetic puppy, a nervous rescue, or a senior pet needing extra attention. My goal is to give pet owners peace of mind knowing their pets are safe, loved, and cared for like family while they’re away. I understand how important trust is when choosing someone to care for your animals, and I pride myself on being reliable, attentive, and compassionate with every pet I meet. I love to hear about owners caretaking strategies so that I’m able to duplicate those qualities! We want to make your animals feel comfortable and loved while you’re away.
“Adrienne n. was the best! She sent pictures of Mackenzie and really made the experience a stress free one! This was the first time leaving my moo moo with someone so naturally I was nervous. I will use her services again. Thanks”
“Erica is a rockstar! She is so good with my babies, especially my rambunctious 5 month old lab puppy. She's very responsive to requests and sends tons of updates and photos. My mind is completely at ease when she has my babies!”
About: I have experience caring for dogs and understand how important it is to make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I enjoy spending time with animals, going on walks, playing, and giving them plenty of attention. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I will do my best to make them feel right at home. Your pet will be treated like family and cared for with patience, love, and responsibility. I have a flexible schedule and am happy to work with pet owners to accommodate their needs. I’m available for pet sitting, boarding, walks, and drop-in visits based on scheduling. I understand how important it is to have someone reliable to care for your pets, and I’ll make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away! 🐾 I provide loving, attentive care for pets in my home or my client’s home, depending on the service needed. I make sure pets have fresh water, regular meals, exercise, playtime, and plenty of affection. I do my best to maintain their normal routines so they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I also follow any special instructions provided by pet parents and keep them updated with messages and pictures. My goal is to treat every pet like family and give owners peace of mind knowing their furry family members are in good hands! 🐾
“Elizabeth was a really great host, she was extremely responsive and flexible with schedule which is always appreciated. She has two adorable resident dogs who got along great with my two pups. I would certainly have her host again, and recommended her.”
“We are so incredibly thankful for the care that our doodle received from Kaitlyn and her husband! We received pictures and updates during his stay, which really gave us a piece of mind! We are more than pleased with the care our pup received! Many many thanks!!! :-)”
About: I have had a dog almost every year of my life and I have worked in an animal hospital for 8 years. I have taken care of dogs of all sizes from 6lb yorkies to 85lb goldens! I am a retired individual who loves hanging out with my family and taking care of dogs. I clean houses during the week but that provides me a very flexible schedule as it is on my time. As I am a trusted individual to clean other's houses, I know how to be respectful of other's spaces and leave them in a better condition than I arrive. My house is always picked up so no worries of dogs eating small toys or items that could harm them.
About: I have trained puppies and have had multiple pets. My friends are always asking me to help with their animals, even financially. I love the meet and greets and spending my time with animals! I am only Doordashing right now for work and pet sitting so my hours are very flexible! I am pregnant though! But that has no effect because my boyfriend tends to help me with the animals so that your animal is busy all day when he is home and I try to spend some time Dashing! We have ample time for any hour for feedings, walks, playtime, or potty breaks! I am safe and reliable. Always on my toes and ready for a fun day with a pet. I hope you will entrust me. I do not steal and or trash anywhere I go.

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 Richwoods 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 Richwoods 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 Richwoods.
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 and your Richwoods 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.

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.
