“This was the third time Karen has taken care of my pup and I was very happy with her service. She sent many pictures and videos, assuring me that McKenzie was well taken care of and content on her "vacation". Karen was even able to watch McKenzie two extra days when my return was delayed. Yay, Karen! Highly recommended!”

“Stephanie is fantastic! She went above and beyond to make the entire dog sitting process easy, reassuring and comfortable for us - from coming to our home for a meet and greet to being extra communicative and flexible to even dropping our dogs off at our house after our long day of travel! She is so sweet and clearly loves dogs. Our pups were upset when she left, so we know they had a great experience too. She is a responsible, trustworthy dog sitter and person. And lastly, her home is super clean, very unlike some of the in-home kennel situations we’ve experienced with Rover sitters. We will be using her again. We can’t recommend her enough!”

“Darcy had a fun doggie holiday with Jennifer and we are very appreciative. We had a last minute change to add a day to be able to leave town ahead of the weather front before Christmas weekend, and Jennifer was very accommodating. She was very knowledgeable and detailed in keeping the schedule for our dog as close to home rituals as possible. She sent photos and videos. She is very experienced, as she was boarding 5 dogs at a time - which our girl enjoyed, but make sure to inquire how many dogs will be at her house in the event your dog has a tendency to get overwhelmed - as that environment might not be a good fit for anxious doggies. Overall, it was a gift to us to be away and not worry about our sweet girl. We will use Jennifer again in the future.”

About: I have fed, cuddled, and played with many different cats and dogs that we had from childhood until now. Pets of all kinds, have always been a part of my family and I would love to be a part of yours when you need to get away! I work from home so my schedule is flexible, accomodating mornings and evenings, which is perfect to tuck your little one in or feed them breakfast. I am available to drop in for walks, feedings, or even just socialization at your descretion. Anytime of day works for me as I can schedule around your needs.

“Greg and family took care of Raven for 10 days while we were visiting our son's family in North Carolina. Everything went very well it seems and we are so pleased with the care and compassion that Greg and team put into their care for Raven. We received a picture each day which helped ease our sense of missing her. This is just the perfect place for her. We've already scheduled two more doggie day care sessions and truly appreciate working with them. Can't praise them enough as Raven is not the easiest dog to take care of.”

We are extremely happy and very grateful for the wonderful experience we had with Brian and Abigail. They welcomed our girl Daisy into their home and family and although we missed her, we are not sure she even realized we were gone! It is most important to us that we can leave her someplace knowing she is being cared for safely and properly , loved on always, and feeling secure in her environment. Brian and Abigail have done that well and we will definitely be bringing Daisy back soon!

I've asked Alycia to take Pixie many times and it's always a great experience. Pixie loves staying with her and comes back super tired from the boarding. 5 out of 5 stars. Highly recommended. I think Alycia has boarded Pixie at least 5 or 6 times now with the same high level of care and communication.

Laura and Patrick were phenomenal dogsitters for us--they took such great care of Teddy and have a beautiful backyard. We appreciated the pictures and updates while we were out of town. They went above and beyond to get special dog food and a prescription from our vet when our dog dealt with "stress colitis" from being away from us and they handled it all in stride. We are so grateful we found them--it was our first time using Rover and we were really happy with the entire experience!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Sunset Hills

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Sunset Hills is $39 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $39 and $39 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 1,084 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Sunset Hills. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.

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 Sunset Hills 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 Sunset Hills 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 Sunset Hills.

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 Sunset Hills. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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 Sunset Hills 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.
