Personalized care for your dog or cat - Boaz
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Boaz
“Dylan was great! I was very nervous leaving one of my pups as it was her first time being away from us. She did very well and Dylan sent us updates daily. My pups didn’t want to leave when I picked them up! Highly recommend Dylan for your boarding stays.”
“Ashley was just absolutely amazing! If I could give her 10 stars, I 100% would! She really went above and beyond taking care of our girl! We really enjoyed the consistent check-ins and pictures and appreciate the extra time she took to let us know how Harley was doing while we were away! I was so thrilled that she actually seemed to take the time to get to know our fur baby and treated her like one of her own! This was our first time boarding Harley, but Ashley made it so smooth and stress-free! Would definitely recommend and will be booking with her again in the future!”
“Raquel is the absolute best. She welcomed us with open arms. We did a meet and greet before booking and I knew then she'd be great for my baby. She's so sweet and professional. Her love for dogs are amazing along with her wonderful daughter. I'm happy I found Raquel. Thanks for everything.”
“She is absolutely amazing with my babies and super understanding of situations! I absolutely adore her and the way she loves my cats! She and her family treat them like family and I wouldn’t trust anyone else with them!!”
“Ashleigh was great with all aspects of our dog's stay. Great communication before and during the stay along with pictures of how our dog was doing. Lucy was comfortable with Ashleigh and her home, and we look forward to using her again!”
“Gretchen was great! She communicated with me daily and sent pics of my baby. It was my first time using Rover and I have a small dog (10 lbs) who is used to being at home with me. It was nice to know my fur baby was with other small dogs and the daily updates from Gretchen were comforting. I would recommend Gretchen, especially if you have a small dog. I will use her again.”
“Mickayla is awesome! I knew from the time we met that we are in good hands! This was the first time I have left her with someone, I could not be more pleased! I loved the pictures she took and told me about Gracie’s day. I can tell she loves animals, and I am so thankful and will definitely pick her when I need someone to care for my pup.”
“Olivia was fantastic! She is extremely kind, communicates clearly, and flexible with changes. We had a few changes with our schedule, and she was so nice about it and took care of things. She sent us pictures and videos of our dogs while we were away. They had a great time, and I felt like they were so safe in her hands. I’ll definitely take them back again ?”
“Gerrad is our go to sitter whenever we go out of town - I think he loves our dog as much as we do! Frequent updates, quick replies and lots of pictures…we miss him but never worry. Gerrad is truly the best!”
“Anne watched my dog over a recent weekend, and I couldn’t have been happier with the experience. My dog can be a bit timid and struggles with some separation anxiety, but Anne was wonderful with her. She kept me updated with pictures and videos showing my dog calm, comfortable, and getting along beautifully. It gave me a lot of peace of mind, and I would absolutely feel comfortable leaving my dog with Anne again anytime.”
“Our dog had a return visit with Kim and he had a great time! He’s made friends with her dog Benny and they loved playing and wearing each other out. I really appreciate that she sends updates and pictures throughout the stay and has been flexible and easy to work with. We are so thankful to have found her since we don’t have any family in town to watch our dog when we need to travel. Thanks Kim!!”
“Our dog had such a good time!! We received pictures of him while we were away which made the separation more bearable. She stayed in touch with us updates and accommodated all our traveled changes. Definitely an excellent experience!!”
“Very satisfied with her I would highly recommend her. I had to give her a short notice because my pet sitter had an accident and could not watch cloud and then cloud is not completely trained winner in other households and she made sure he had a bath and all of his things that were cleaned up. She kept me posted on how he was doing with pictures and text. There was a horrible rainstorm, which really hampered cloud from being able to go out and she made sure he came home clean. Thank you Kaitlin so much. I will not hesitate to use her again in the future.”
“Raelynn was the sweetest and took excellent care of our two senior rottweilers. We were sent an update daily along with pics and could tell they were having a good time with her. Would recommend again and again!”
About: I’ve taken care of many kinds of dogs, cats, and horses from a young age. I also have experience in dog grooming, ranging from small to large dogs. I am fluent in American Sign Language. I am flexible as I work from home. I normally check pets at least two times a day, but more check in times are available upon request. I have a friendly dog who loves to play and make new friends. He will be very helpful in helping young dogs learn how to socialize.
“Ashlyn and her pets were fantastic with my sometimes-reactive dog. She listened to my cautious instructions and made sure my dog had a warm start-up to his week-long stay. Thank you!! Will be returning in the future :).”
“We have one easy dog (though not too easy because he is still a puppy and not fully potty trained) and a challenging 5 year old maltese that doesn't trust easily. Leaving him has always been a challenge. We've never felt so comfortable being gone from him as when Lael had him. I don't mind being away from him but I worry about him being trouble for the person keeping him. He wasn't an easy keep for her but she was so open to letting him warm up and adjust to her. By the last couple days he was snuggling on her lap and following her around like he does with me. She also was great with our puppy and continuing his potty training. He in particular loved running in her big, fenced yard with her dogs and having access to a doggy door. While we were gone she sent videos and pictures and gave us regular updates. What a great experience for us and our fur babies. Thank you Lael.”

“I loved Paige. She was perfect. My cat was so happy in such great care. She played with him every day and kept him very entertained. She added tons of photos every visit which I was very very grateful for. I would highly recommend Paige.”

I also keep litter boxes clean, follow feeding routines closely, and provide updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away.
“Bree was a life-saver when we had to go out of town on short notice. She is reliable, dependable, and punctual. She listens to and follows instructions and is very detail-oriented. She was great about sending photos and staying in communication with us throughout our booking. Plus Tabitha, our cat, ran right up to her the first time they met and trusted her, which is the most important thing. We’ll be booking with her again!”
“Olivia watched over our fur baby with the utmost care and diligence! Her reports were thorough, and her communication was spectacular. This was the longest my husband and I had left our cat, and we were nervous about it. Olivia put our minds to ease because of her open communication and frequent updates. We knew our boy was getting the best care possible, so we could truly relax and enjoy our trip. She truly went above and beyond, not just keeping our cat happy and healthy, but Olivia also took care of our home and kept it tidy and clean. I cannot recommend her enough! She truly cares about the pets she watches, and she is just a genuinely kind and dedicated person. You will not be disappointed by booking with her!”
About: I have experience caring for cats with different personalities, routines, and comfort levels. I understand the importance of patience, gentle attention, and creating a calm environment where cats feel safe and relaxed. Whether your cat enjoys playtime, quiet companionship, or sticking to their routine, I make sure they receive loving, attentive care while you’re away.
“Regina was lovely. She is very responsive to messages (very quickly), friendly, sent multiple updates throughout the day, and most importantly took great care of our kittens and home while we were away. Highly recommend!”
“Mickayla is absolutely fantastic. She clearly takes her responsibility very seriously. From the very first meeting to get the low down before her first care day through the actual visits while we were gone, Mickayla was very communicative and kept us in the loop with all pet related goings on. We received lots of fabulous pictures of our kitties and the one kitty that is the most hesitant around new people was coming all the way up to Mickayla for pets on their first meet. Animals know good people! Best of all, we had complete peace of mind while away from our pets. I highly recommend Mickayla!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Boaz

About: I have always had pets (dogs mostly) and love them! I will love your babies as if they were my own! I hope you pick me! I have recently retired and am looking for something gratifying to help other Dog owners with the care of their pet! I know how stressful it can be when you have to leave your pet for any length of time and would love to relieve that stress for you! 😊 I have a fenced in yard with a senior dog, Bella. She is such a great dog and is so aloof, like nothing bothers her! I am unable to board certain breeds due to home insurance restrictions and my senior dog so may not be able to accept every request, however, I haven’t turned one down yet!
“Super responsive, nice, and great place to drop your dogo off for the day. Sent updates all day. My puppy was tuckered out by the time I picked him up. Thank you Gretchen!”
“Ashley's simply the best. You know someone knows dogs well when the dogs are happy and excited to go visit her. I can't say enough about how much thought and care she puts into everything her and her family do to help others out and their fur babies.”
“Sydney is great! I needed a sitter for my new puppy while I’m at work while she gets adjusted, and Sydney has been amazing. Love that my dog gets a chance to socialize with new people, visit with some cats, and get tired out and sleep through the night. Sydney has been a great communicator and very easy to get ahold of, with lots of flexibility with my schedule. Would absolutely recommend her!”
“Cortney was very friendly, and she took great care of our two energetic dogs! Her place is clean and she was able to care for multiple dogs very well.

“We are from a small town in Southeast Kansas, and traveled to the Springfield/Branson area for a mini family vacation. We have 3 full sized dogs and haven’t ever had to board them anywhere before. We found out about Rover from another individuals review on another platform. We reached out to Raquel Thursday morning & she quickly responded and we dropped off our fur babies an hour later! Sh was super friendly and you could tell she has a deep love for animals, which eased our worries tremendously! She sent us videos and updates without us even having to request them! We then had a change in plans and needed care for the entire weekend she was super accommodating! We were able to enjoy our trip without worry. She kept us updated all weekend with texts, photos, and videos. Our pups had the best time and were loved on just like we would of loved on them if there were home! She is a true blessing 10/10 recommend and she will 100% be our first call for future visits to the area! ❤️”
About: With five years of pet-sitting experience and 18 years caring for my own dog, I offer dependable, respectful in-home care. As a law student with a flexible schedule, I’m able to give pets consistent companionship, gentle handling, and a safe routine while you’re away. I’m free most weekends, and my weekday schedule is somewhat flexible. I am in class Mondays from 1PM-3PM, Tuesdays from 1PM-5PM, Wednesdays from 10AM-3PM, Thursdays from 1PM-5PM, and Fridays from 10AM-12PM. I just moved to the area, but I’ve been pet sitting for years. My own dog recently passed, so I really appreciate any chance to spend time with pups. They’re the best study partners, and I’m always happy to give them company and love. I follow your pet’s routine exactly and keep your home secure while you’re away. Clear communication, safety-first habits, and gentle handling are my priorities. Your pets stay comfortable, your home stays respected.
“I’ve been using Heather’s pet sitting services 2–3x/week for over 2 years now. She is the absolute best. She will provide such loving, enriching care for your dog. My dog is exhausted from all the play and excitement when I come to pick her up, and that’s exactly what she needs because she doesn’t get enough of that otherwise. Heather has gone out of her way countless times to make sure my dog is taken care of. I’d never consider another dog sitter at this point unless I absolutely had to.”
“Amanda was great. Mason had a great time and was very happy and playful when we picked up. We needed her on VERY short notice due to a family member being in hospital, and she was very accommodating!!! Will definitely us again if needed!!!!”
“Deserae is conscientious in every detail and joyfully cares for my Gracie. Her love for dogs is evident. Gracie gets lots of attention, outdoor play time and all around excellent care. I am so happy I found Deserae!”
About: I’ve owned at least one dog on my own since 2011. It’s me and my Dixie girl right now. She loves to play and also loves to chill on the couch!

I have a fenced yard and love to be outside playing fetch or with other toys. I also love to lay on the couch and snuggle!

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Boaz
“Regina has been incredible. As our dog’s first walker, she worked with a very anxious pup who struggled with other dogs, people, and even environmental stimuli like leaves. Since Regina began walking her, we’ve seen significant progress—our dog is now more confident, enjoys her walks, and is more comfortable sharing space with others. We truly appreciate Regina’s patience and consistency.”
“Katie is amazing! She came over and helped sooth my new puppy mom anxiety by making sure luna was taken care of, fed, and let out! She stayed to play with luna, which was not necessary, but greatly appreciated!”

I am currently a Frenchie (3yrs) mom, however I have experience with senior care, large dog breeds, and puppy training (under 1yrs)!

My dogs are very friendly and love to play with new dogs! I am very responsible, trustworthy and reliable. I have always grown up around dogs so I am experienced with taking care of them. I love seeing new dogs and that is what has interested me in being a dog sitter/walker. I have a special love for animals and I will treat every animal as my own and take very good care of them.

I have a fenced in backyard, with two friendly dogs ready to make some new friends. Your furry friend will always be in good hands.
About: I have grown up with a variety of pets and have come to consider them all a part of the family. From Geckos to Hermits, Fish to Frogs, and Cats to Dogs, I've housed a variety and have loved them all to the core! I am particularly familiar with Medium sized dogs, but I am no stranger to the big, the bad, or the snugly. For cats, I can be a bit squeamish when it comes to litter, but that is nothing a mask or a nose clip won't fix! As a full time college student, online classes allow my schedule to be very flexible. My grades are important, but nothing motivates me more than a happy pet and a satisfied customer! As someone who understands that home is a place to escape the daily riff raff, I am willing to keep visits as quick and simple as possible or as long and engaging as preferred. A meet and greet is encouraged so I can better understand the needs of your pet and so that the pet and I can become familiar.
“This was my first time using Rover, and I had a great experience with Olivia. She went above and beyond caring for my dog and made me feel completely comfortable the entire time. Communication was excellent, and it was clear my dog was well cared for and happy. I would absolutely book with her again!”

About: For over 10 years, I’ve been dedicated to caring for all types of cats and dogs, providing reliable and loving service to my family and neighbors. From playful puppies to calm senior cats, I’ve gained experience with pets of all breeds, sizes and personalities.

My availability is kept up to date on my calendar, and I am flexible throughout the day depending on bookings. I can come over for a quick feeding or to spend several hours with your pets, depending on what will benefit them the most.

On rare occasions, I may travel out of town, but I update my calendar well in advance to reflect any changes. I’m always open to coordinating schedules and finding arrangements that work well for both the pet owner and the pets. I’m looking forward to the opportunity to help and provide reliable care! I follow a consistent routine to make sure pets feel comfortable and well cared for. In my own home, my dogs are let out in the morning, midday, and evening, along with daily walks to keep them active and engaged.

With cats, I focus on creating a calm, lower stress environments so they can feel safe and build trust at their own pace.

“Mickayla is awesome! I knew from the time we met that we are in good hands! This was the first time I have left her with someone, I could not be more pleased! I loved the pictures she took and told me about Gracie’s day. I can tell she loves animals, and I am so thankful and will definitely pick her when I need someone to care for my pup.”
“Gerrad is our go to sitter whenever we go out of town - I think he loves our dog as much as we do! Frequent updates, quick replies and lots of pictures…we miss him but never worry. Gerrad is truly the best!”
“Anne watched my dog over a recent weekend, and I couldn’t have been happier with the experience. My dog can be a bit timid and struggles with some separation anxiety, but Anne was wonderful with her. She kept me updated with pictures and videos showing my dog calm, comfortable, and getting along beautifully. It gave me a lot of peace of mind, and I would absolutely feel comfortable leaving my dog with Anne again anytime.”
“Our dog had such a good time!! We received pictures of him while we were away which made the separation more bearable. She stayed in touch with us updates and accommodated all our traveled changes. Definitely an excellent experience!!”
“Very satisfied with her I would highly recommend her. I had to give her a short notice because my pet sitter had an accident and could not watch cloud and then cloud is not completely trained winner in other households and she made sure he had a bath and all of his things that were cleaned up. She kept me posted on how he was doing with pictures and text. There was a horrible rainstorm, which really hampered cloud from being able to go out and she made sure he came home clean. Thank you Kaitlin so much. I will not hesitate to use her again in the future.”
“Raelynn was the sweetest and took excellent care of our two senior rottweilers. We were sent an update daily along with pics and could tell they were having a good time with her. Would recommend again and again!”
About: I’ve taken care of many kinds of dogs, cats, and horses from a young age. I also have experience in dog grooming, ranging from small to large dogs. I am fluent in American Sign Language. I am flexible as I work from home. I normally check pets at least two times a day, but more check in times are available upon request. I have a friendly dog who loves to play and make new friends. He will be very helpful in helping young dogs learn how to socialize.
“Ashlyn and her pets were fantastic with my sometimes-reactive dog. She listened to my cautious instructions and made sure my dog had a warm start-up to his week-long stay. Thank you!! Will be returning in the future :).”
“We have one easy dog (though not too easy because he is still a puppy and not fully potty trained) and a challenging 5 year old maltese that doesn't trust easily. Leaving him has always been a challenge. We've never felt so comfortable being gone from him as when Lael had him. I don't mind being away from him but I worry about him being trouble for the person keeping him. He wasn't an easy keep for her but she was so open to letting him warm up and adjust to her. By the last couple days he was snuggling on her lap and following her around like he does with me. She also was great with our puppy and continuing his potty training. He in particular loved running in her big, fenced yard with her dogs and having access to a doggy door. While we were gone she sent videos and pictures and gave us regular updates. What a great experience for us and our fur babies. Thank you Lael.”
“Emma was fantastic with our pups! She sent us lots of “pupdates” with pics. Took the girls on several walks, on outings to the park and even tried to teach them tricks. She went above and beyond with everything. I couldn’t have asked for a better first time Rover experience.”
“I felt confident leaving Dottie with Nella for the first time. Dottie is older, needed medication given and is reactive with other dogs. Nella assured me she had plenty of room to keep all the dogs separated for the length of Dottie's stay. When I arrived for pickup, Nella had Dottie in the yard and all travel kit was packed up. Dottie looked happy and alert. I would be happy to leave Dottie with Nella again, and recommend Nella to my friends.”
“Brooklyn was AMAZING! My dog has high separation anxiety and she catered to him in every way that she could to keep him comfortable. He was so content and relaxed with her plus had a great buddy to play hard with! She sent me lots of pics and kept me updated. I will absolutely use her again!”
About: Hello! My name is Brooke and I have a precious English Springer Spaniel and had a beautiful Bernese Mountain Dog. I am a big dog lover and take my dog everywhere she can go with me! We love to hike, go biking, chase squirrels and the next door neighbors dog! I love spending time with animals, period, whether it’s playing with them or just taking them on a much needed walk! I also have house sat/pet sat for various families over the years and am extremely flexible with whatever families need. I have house sat/puppy sat from just a couple nights to several months at a time. I offer services of walking, in-home visits, over-night stays and quite frankly am flexible with any other situations that may come up! Thanks for reading and I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby! I currently work full time and even though I love puppies, would prefer to watch dogs that have a well established routine and can be ok for sometime alone before I can come and walk them and play with them. This is part of my personal routine with my own puppy. At this time I do not have a fenced in yard at my own home, so talking my dog for a long walk on the trails near my house is a must! For families where I am watching not only their animal but their home, I like to work within their animals normal routine so as not to add any more stress to the owners or the animal.
“Cynthia was excellent, I could tell Kona didn't want to leave so soon when I picked her up. She made new friends and Cynthia kept me up to date with pictures and updates with his Kona was doing which is always nice!”
“This was our second stay with Sydney and of course everything went well. She sends messages and updates everyday. Our dog seems to really enjoy spending time with Sydney and her husband. Will definitely book again if I need a dog sitter!”
“Courtney and daughter took great care of our puppy Leia. She was with her, in her house or on walks ,virtually the entire time were out of town. She responded quickly in a somewhat of an emergency situation for us. So happy we were able to connect with Courtney. Thanks again!!”
“Mikala was amazing and anytime I need an overnight sitter she is the first person I will call on. My Gypsy was so taken care of over the thanksgiving holiday. I received regular pictures and updates with a smiling puppy with her new friends. A special thanks to Mikala and her husband for helping me with our puppy drop off as I was hospitalized a few hours after our meet and greet and wasn’t able to meet personally. That meant so much to me that these sweet people went out of their way to help me. I would absolutely recommend Mikala for any service with Rover. The apitamy of a puppy mom and no doubt your fur babies will be in good hands with Mikala.”
About: Walking, bathing, and hanging out with dogs is some of my favorite downtime activities. Growing up with a dog I learned all the necessary skills to watch over a dog. I even volunteered at the humane society in both the dog and cat area for four years! I am currently a teacher so I work from 7-4pm Monday through Friday, but if you need someone to walk your dog at night or house sit for the weekend or even a week night, I am your person! My husband also works from home so if you’re boarding during the week day he is also here to help out if needed. Whatever you need me to do is what I will follow. I will come to your place as my animals do not take well to strangers. But rest assured I will take great care of your animal, in whatever capacity you need. At our home we two cats that do well with other dogs but tend to ignore them, and one dog who LOVES other dogs so no worries there.
