“Stephen and his family were fantastic. They gave us the peace of mind to enjoy our vacation knowing our pet was being taken care of. I will always look to see if he is available next time we are looking for a dog sitter. Cannot recommend enough.”

“Victoria B. is an excellent doggie sitter. She took care of my Cavatzu for 10+ days and sent a picture of him regularly. That in itself told me he was very secure and doing fine. I highly recommend Victoria B. She will take good care of your little buddy just as her own. Thank her for your services.”

“Excellent communication. My dogs were happy when I picked them up. I was nervous to leave my dogs b cause I never had left them before this past weekend. I felt very secure leaving Buddy and Louie with Ashley and Tyler. Will definitely be rebooking, I won't even consider leavingy pets with anyone else!”

“Colleen was SO great with our Baylor. She sent picture and video updates multiple times a day. She gave Baylor his medicine and let me know how he was doing while we were away. She catered to all of his needs and requests that we had. Baylor came home happy and sleepy from all the fun playing he did:) I will 100% be using Colleen and her little family again.”

“Cody was great. He made sure my fur babies were comfortable at his house. They played and slept with his fur baby and had a great time. Will definitely return when out of town again!”
“He took wonderful care of our Pursley for the weekend. I will definitely be rebooking when we need to go out of town. He gave him so much attention and love. He sent me so many pictures and messages. I know we left him in great hands.”

“Marissa does a great job looking after our kittem Bug, he looked super relaxed and comfortable in all the photos she sent. I will use her whenever we need someone to look after our pets”

“We had the best experience with Aimee. She sent us sweet pictures daily While we were on vacation. We didn’t worry at all about Maggie. It was Maggie first time to be with a dog sitter. She loved her time. Aimee is delightful & does an amazing job loving on your pet. I think Maggie got more walks in with Aimee than us & loved it. We will totally use her again & so should you!!!??”

“Brooke was great! She watched one of my dogs last minute when I was in a pinch and was even flexible when I had to extend my stay another day. Rocket got along great with her other dog and Brooke sent photo updates frequently that gave me peace of mind. Will book with her again!”

“Rachel did a great job watching Tucker! She provided us with updates on how he was doing. She went above and beyond to accommodate us when our flight got delayed getting back. Highly recommend Rachel for pet sitting your animals!”

About: Hello! I’m Casey. I had a baby in March and am currently staying home with her and our old lady Edie, a bichon frise. I love animals and my little girl and I would love to help you out during the day! I know from experience how hard it is leaving your animals unattended while you’re at work, or finding a trusted sitter to help when you’re out of town. My availability is fairly open for now, and I try to stay flexible for my clients. I am happy to take your dog for walks or play/ feed as well. I am also open and available to help with cats! :) I am currently staying at home with my little one, so I have open availability to travel to your home and help with your pet! I am happy to help in any way you wish! I can feed, play with, and walk your pet, or even just check to make sure you turned off the coffee pot! I am reliable and will always leave the house secure and as I found it. I am happy to send photos as well!
“Chanel took wonderful care of Mila! She kept me updated throughout the entire stay with lots of photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that Mila was well cared for, comfortable, and happy. I really appreciated her communication and the love and attention she gave my dog. I would absolutely book with Chanel again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. Thank you so much!”

About: We've had pets my whole life. When I was younger, my parents bred a variety of animals ranging from Persian cats to Jack Russells and Dobermans. I also have experience caring for exotic reptiles and birds. I'm a dog mom to three adorable Dachschunds. When your animals are with me, they will be treated like family. My whole family loves animals. My sister is a veterinary technician that trains and shows animals in her spare time, and my daughter is looking to follow in her footsteps. I currently work part-time, only during the week. I have night time availability and full weekend availability. Also have a break mid day if needed. I love animals of every kind. I would love to care for your animals in either my home or yours. I have experience with any type of animal. I do not have a fenced in backyard, but live off of a secluded side street in Bella Vista ending in a Culdesac. We love long walks, and can make sure that your dogs get plenty of exercise. If children friendly, I have older kids that love to play. They engage with the animals properly, and know how to respect boundaries. My sister does dog training, and my kids often like to help her train her Dobermans and German Shepherd.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 213 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across South West City. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
94% of sitters in South West City 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 South West City 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 South West City.
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 South West City 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.
