“Our dog took to Cristina, and it made me feel at ease the way Cristina interacted with our dog. She was personable, and my dog came home tired from her stay, which is a good thing for us. We would absolutely use Cristina again!”
“Lori was great! It was the first time leaving my puppy and she was patient, answered all of my questions and made me feel comfortable. She sent and couple of pictures and updates during the day which really helped. I would recommend!”
About: Hi! We’re Jordan and Austin, and we’re getting married this February after recently moving into our first home together in Parkville, Missouri. We’ve both had dogs our entire lives and absolutely love them, but since we’ll be traveling a lot this year before getting one of our own, we’d love the opportunity to care for other people’s pets and get our much-needed dose of puppy love along the way! One of us is almost always home! I work both from home and in the field, and my fiancé works from home full-time, so your pup will have plenty of company, attention, and love throughout the day. We’re available on weekdays and most weekends, and if our schedule ever changes, we’ll update our calendar accordingly. We can’t wait to meet your furry family member and give them all the playtime, cuddles, and care they deserve! Your pet’s safety and comfort are our top priorities. We have a large, fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely run and play, a spacious basement for indoor playtime when the weather isn’t ideal, and a beautiful neighborhood with great sidewalks for daily walks. Since we don’t have any pets of our own, your furry family member will receive our full attention, plenty of one-on-one care, and lots of love in a calm, safe, and comfortable home.
About: I've taken care of cats and dogs since I was 13. I'm 35. There's plenty of space in the house and a fenced in yard. I am currently staying home for the summer with my 4 year old son. We will be home full time! Let us help with your fur baby! I have a fenced in yard and a basement if the animal needs space. We will take the dogs out regularly. They will be safe and loved here.
About: I've lived with and cared for dogs my entire life. As an adult, I fell in love with cats as well (just never got the exposure when I was younger). At present, I currently live with with four cats (all outdoor) and one dog. For work, I have retired from finance to instead work for my family business doing handyman and maid work around multiple house rentals in town, fixing up my own house in the spare time. I often visit my brother with his three cats and two dogs. We like to meet up at the Waggin' Tails dog park here in town to socialize our dogs and ourselves. I have also started volunteering at the local humane society to give needy animals some additional love, support, and attention. With my extra time, I'm now making myself available to help take care of even more cats, dogs, and homes than I already have been! I am self employed with the flexibility to start helping other people out. Some days I need to turn over a house cleaning mid-day as my family manages several houses for rentals, other days I am working on repairs and random home improvement projects; otherwise, I am generally around and available! There are two doorways between the boarding area and the outside. The property has a large fenced in yard, about a quarter acre with an attached smaller dog run that can be gated off. I have four outdoor cats that keep to themselves and I do have one very friendly, social dog. There is also a large, mostly unfinished basement with multiple rooms/areas with gates available throughout the house. Prior to the boarding, doggy day care, or house sitting, I will reach out to the owner and ask questions to gain more insight into how I can make the stay of their pet(s) a more homey and consistent one.
About: I've been fostering the last few years and have experience with all sizes and types of dogs. I'm great with puppies and seniors. Our daily routine is consistent and calm. I love getting out for walks and spending a some time in the backyard a few times a day. I work from home and can provide potty breaks as needed. If I have to be out it will be between 1 and 4 hours. We have a good routine at our house of getting out for a walk or backyard sniff session every morning and evening. I work from home, have a fenced in yard and a very calm home environment. I have a 35 lb dog, Charlie who sleeps all day. We live in a quiet neighborhood that's great for walks. If I go out it's usually about 1 or 2 hours and rarely up to 4 hours. If I have more than one dog, I never leave them in the same space while I'm gone... or when feeding. I'm a small human :) 5 ft tall so while I'm happy to take larger dogs they do need to be leash trained for their safety and mine. Puppies need to be crate trained for their safety too.
About: I’ve had dogs from a young age. Staying with me, they will get attention, love, play time and cuddles. They will also get to play with my dog Lexi. I work from home full time so I’m always here. I’m able to go outside and play with your pups or give them extra attention. I have a fenced in yard with locks on my gates. I have a doggie door and the back door is always open. I have a 5 year old pup that is very calming and caring. She has been great with other dogs. She is very nurturing and always makes sure those in her space are safe. I have a couple of stories I can provide about her. I am very hands on and constantly checking on my girl and will do the same for your furbaby. Safety is very important to me, not only for your furbaby but for myself and my furbaby as well.
About: I have worked in veterinary Kennels and in shelters. I am also a certified Dog and Cat trainer through Animal Behavior College in 2013. I have been trained in animal first aide. I have a military I.D. so I can also care for military families as well! I come home on my lunch break to let the dogs run in the yard (we NEVER leave the dogs outside on their own for safety from hawks etc). The longest they are alone is 5 hours. Our live revolve around our own dogs so they will feel like one of the family in no time. We have a fenced .75 acre yard that we stay out with them for safety. Older pups will be carried on any stairs to prevent any falls. Kenneling is a part of our home for safety. But if we are home they are out. The dogs have their own room where they kennel that has safety film on the windows so they can benefit from the light but are not tormented by the squirrels in the trees. Cats are kept in their own area as well. I know how important your dog is and I will treat them the way I would want mine treated. With the exception of errands and taking kids to school I am home full time. We treat visitors as one of the pack. Often our visiting pups like to lounge on the couch when not supervised in the yard. I have a fenced yard and dogs are not left outside unattended (especially the little ones). We have a multi layered floor plan so if a dog needs to be alone for a bit we have the ability to do so.
“Sending Sampson and Slinky to Christina's for the day is always an easy choice. This was their 2nd day care stay and they were super excited when we arrived at the house. It's always a relief to see our dogs excited and happy to go to Christina's so we can be assured they'll have the exercise and attention they deserve while we are attending to other things (a graduation party!). If you're considering Christina for your dog sitting needs, seriously...look no further. She's awesome.”
“I was visiting the area to attend a course and found this resource on Rover. Lindsey (and her family) is absolutely wonderful! She accepted my fur baby as one of her own. Noodle loved being there which was a great relief to me so I could attend my courses without additional pet caregiving stresses. I can’t say enough good things about this experience and will definitely use the service (especially with Lindsey) any time I am in the area. I hope that if I have to travel elsewhere that I find someone as great as Lindsay to care for my baby Noodle.”
“My husband and I felt so comfortable leaving our pup with Rocio! She provided tons of pictures and communicates throughout the day if needed. Will definitely be rebooking in the near future. Thanks again. :)”
About: I am a retired police dispatcher and have a squeaky clean background. I love all animals! I provide calm, reliable care and treat every dog like part of the family while they’re with me. I know how important it is for pet parents to feel comfortable leaving their dog with someone they trust, so I focus on safety, communication, and making pets feel at home. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or sticking to a dog’s normal routine, I make sure each pet gets personalized attention and care. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I’m retired and have a very flexible schedule. I’m home often, which allows me to give dogs plenty of attention, supervision, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I respect both the pet's routine and the home itself by following all care instructions carefully. I treat all dogs like they are my family.
“April did an amazing job watching our 6y Weimaraner She let us meet before the stay to introduce her dog to ours and provided lots of photo updates during the stay. We would definitely recommend her to anyone!”
About: My mom has been a trusted Rover sitter for several years now, so I grew up around this — it’s kind of in the blood. I’ve personally owned and cared for dogs, cats, birds, turtles, you name it, so I’m comfortable with just about any animal you bring my way.

I also have three dogs of my own — a Beagle, a Chihuahua, and a Shar-Pei — so your pet will always have company and will feel right at home within minutes. Your pet will be in good hands — I take it seriously and genuinely enjoy it. I have one of my own that’s stays in a consistent schedule and never forgotten or goes without attention (constant potty breaks included) , have all the free time in the word and have years on years of experience with all pets massive and small obedient or not, your pet will be looked after enjoy the time an my little fur baby loves to keep them company wherever they decide to adventure I have a big gated backyard plenty but enough for multiple dogs to do their own thing including own free range to sleep jump and lay on furniture including beds and free range to the entire house and back yard,Very used to medicating if needed, crating, training, all an etc whatever special treatment they may need I’ve delt with it all and nothing to difficult to stay or keep up on if needed
“Thank you so much for taking such great care of him. He loves hanging out with you. It's funny because we will tell him where he's going in the morning and he gets so excited!”
“I was very nervous to leave my dog with someone for the first time but James exceeded my expectations he was very attentive to my dogs needs and sent me updates. My dog can be a handful but James was amazing. He was great and friendly and highly recommend!”
“We were in Kansas City for the weekend for a game and had Cindy watch our dog, Opie. She was so wonderful. He was well taken care of and completely spoiled with her. He was a very happy boy when we picked him up.”

We can also stick to whatever works best for your pet and family.

The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Waldron is $25 per day as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $23 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.

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 Waldron 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 October 2026, there are 647 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 .
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 , 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 .
