About: I am a Veterinary Technician and a Professional Dog Trainer with over 10 years of experience. With a degree in Animal Science and extensive hands-on experience, I understand that safety is the top priority for every pet owner. When your pet stays with us, they will not only be safe but will also have a fun and enriching experience. In addition to boarding, we offer professional Training and Grooming services tailored to each dog's needs. My husband works nights and is home during the day to provide expert care and supervision for your pets. As dedicated owners of show dogs, we take pet care seriously and strive to maintain the highest standards in every aspect of our services. Our property features two fully fenced yards for play and exercise. The first is a secure 6-foot chain link and privacy-fenced potty yard, measuring approximately 20 ft x 60 ft. The second is a spacious, fully fenced double lot with rolling hills and lush grass, providing the perfect environment for your pet to run, play, and explore. *Dogs in our care must be crate trained during down time & at night. When we are not at Dog Shows or Training we are at home with our dogs. My husband works nights which means your pets will be left alone minimally. We have 2 fully fenced in yards. A smaller yard with 6ft privacy fence and a large play yard with 4ft roller panels. We do offer medical boarding on a case by case basis at an additional rate.
“Cameron has done great with our pup Mabel!! He is very patient and thorough and likes to make sure his clients are comfortable with the care and training he provides. Mabel loves going over there and getting to play with JJ and friends. It’s a bonus to have her get some training in too!”
About: I have had my 2 dogs since they are 8 weeks old. I would be so happy to look after your babies. I have a fenced yard with protection from dogs getting out. I currently work from home more than 3 days a week and can change accordingly. I’m flexible with pick-up and drop-off times. Your babies will have 24/7 care and love with us. I have a fenced yard, a large dog crate, couple dog beds. I have one golden retriever and a Labrador retriever. They are very friendly and playful. We have giant water fountain and toys for dogs.
“Alvin is so loved and cared for at Beth’s house. He gets lots of exercise and just loves his buddies there. He knows every morning that it’s time to go see his friends! Thanks for loving our guy!”
“Tara was great. Our first ever using Rover and we couldn’t be happier! We were able to enjoy the morning and afternoon knowing our precious dog was well taking care of of. Thank you so much Tara!!!”
“Kristin is THE best dog sitter we have ever met. My dogs start whining when we get on her street and as soon as we pull up to her house they bolt from the car straight to her door. When she has watched them overnight we get frequent pics and updates. We know they are always in great hands. She is the only dog sitter we recommended.”
About: I have been a professional dog trainer (AKC) and CGC certified trainer for many many years (10+ years). I have worked with many rescues in LA and PHX and continue to have clients back in those cities I still service (my clients love me). I have been watching animals for a long time and recently opening up my home to more clients. I have a large dog and small dog in my home as well as a very sleepy old cat. If your dog needs to be the only dog I can make arrangements for my dogs to be gone at grandparents :) The yard is fenced and dogs are only allowed out with supervision so they are always with me...I want to have fun and bond with your dog and ensure their safety and fun! I am able to do checkins, hikes, walks and obviously cuddles. I am responsible and will care for your pet as much as you do. I am happy to continue what rules/instructions you have for your dog and we will have a great time together. I will follow the rules you have for your dog and send tons of pics and updates! I have references and plenty of experience in all shapes sizes and breeds of dogs! I work remote so usually home. I occasionally travel for work to LA and Phx for clients but taking on new clients here in STL! When I am gone dogs on work related pet visits, the dogs are my home are separated into rooms by baby gates and monitored thru a camera. I am usually gone no longer than 2 hours. I care after your pet the same way you would, with love care and full of safety. I have long time clients that refuse to let me go because of not only the care I give but I think also the cuddles and pics :)
About: I've been a dog and cat owner for over 20 years, so I understand that pets are more than just animals—they're family. I have also fostered multiple dogs over the years, giving me experience welcoming dogs with different personalities, backgrounds, and needs into our home. I currently have one dog and one cat of our own, and know how important it is to find someone you can trust while you're away. Whether your pet enjoys playing outside, going for walks, or simply relaxing and getting attention, I will make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for like one of my own. I'm home throughout the day, allowing me to provide hourly potty breaks, regular outdoor time, meals, and plenty of attention. I'm also available to administer medications and accommodate any special care instructions or routines your pet may need. I offer a welcoming, pet-friendly home with a fenced backyard where dogs can safely enjoy outdoor time and play. I also have a kennel available for dogs that are crate-trained or feel more comfortable having their own space. Our household includes one dog and one cat, so it's important that visiting pets can comfortably coexist with other animals. Safety and supervision are always priorities, and I'll follow any specific feeding schedules, medication instructions, or special care requirements. I also provide regular updates and pictures so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.
“Anusha and her family are too good to work with. Our Pluto was kept very lovingly and utmost care. I kept receiving their playful pics and videos while Pluto was having a good time with all of them. It’s so good and a big relief to see Pluto been left with someone who will treat him with the same love and care that he gets at home. Will be coming back again and again.”
About: I've been caring for pets since I was 10, not just my own, but also those friends and family. Every time someone traveled or needed support, I'd take care of their dogs, turtle, fish and most recently cats. A year ago, I decide to offer that same care (in a formal way) to other families, just like others have done for me when I couldn't be home. Knowing someone loving and trustworthy is with your pets makes a difference. That's what I offer: presence, love, and support, so your pets feel safe and seen, even when you can't be there. As a life insurance agent working from home, I'm blessed with a flexible schedule that allows me to be present, for both my family and the pets I care for. I'm a mother of 3 independent and loving daughters (ages 9,13, and 15) who have grown up around pets, and our routine flows in a way that supports my ability to offer calm, focused care, which allow me to be able to dedicate myself with love, presence and intention to the pets whose families trust me. I know what it feels like to open your home and trust someone with your pets (I've been in that side too) it's a big deal. That's why I show up with love, respect, and warm heart. I talk to your pets, care for them gently, and treat them like family, because that's what they are. I'm not just there to feed them or walk them, I'm there to make sure they feel safe, seen, and love until your return.
“Lindsay was amazing!! She did so many activities with my dog - they went to Petco, on a hike, got a Puppucino at Starbucks, and played doggie puzzles. She went above and beyond, I appreciate her giving so much of her time and attention to him! Will definitely be back!”
“Melinda was very accommodating and Eli loved going over there. We would jump out of the car and I would follow him to the front door. Thank you so much and I will definitely use her again.”
“Carla. Is a diligent, caring pet professional. This was my first time partnering with Carla and I could not be more pleased. She has vast experience in pet care and instills confidence in her immediately upon netting her. She is friendly, warm , compassionate, and my pup bonded with her milliseconds after meeting her and her pets. Very pleased to have found, Carla. I highly recommend her.”
About: I grew up with dogs. Now as an adult it makes me feel grateful that I have people to rely on me to take care of them. Enough breaks to make them feel comfortable at home. Dogs like structure, so I will adjust to the schedules you have already set for them. Structure is key. If you have a plan already set I will follow it. If plan to stay at my house, they are free to be around the house unless you want them crated.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Union
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Union is $27 per day as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $27 per day. 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 259 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Union. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Union commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
As of November 2026, there are 259 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of MO. Enter your address or desired location to see which available sitters are closest to you.
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.
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.
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.

You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
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.
