“Taylor was so nice, amazing and accommodating! Consistent communication with updates and pictures, and Ace was loving every second of his visit, will definitely be entrusting her with Ace’s boarding in the future”
“Johanna was able to accommodate our last minute request for overnight boarding. She took great care of our dog and I would highly recommend her. We will definitely use her again next time we are in need of a sitter.”
“Deandreia is an amazing dog sitter! Onyx absolutely loves staying with her and getting to play with her dogs and cats. Deandreia is always my first choice when I need a pet sitter for Onyx.”
“My dogs came back home happy as ever! I could tell they were at a better place than a Kennel! Thank you Rick for making their weekend away from mommie the best it could be!”
“Absolutely the best!! Left our chihuahua Bandit with McKenzie for 6 nights. McKenzie gave me daily pictures and updates on Bandit. He adjusted well in her home and became besties with one of her fur babies. She has a nice large fenced in yard so he got plenty of exercise & kept safe. Bandit is a spoiled baby & McKensie definitely treated him as if was her own baby. I couldn’t have asked for more. If I need a sitter for my baby again it will definitely be McKenzie.”
“Brody had another great weekend with Robert! I received pictures throughout the stay and my dog was well taken care of. This time I opted for pick up and drop off service and Robert took the utmost care in making sure Brody and my apartment were safe.”
“Adria & her husband were SO amazing! Our babies were taken care of as if they were their own & that’s truly all we could ask for! Adria sent me numerous update pics during their time there. She told me a lot about their behaviors & interactions during the time they were there which meant the world, as this was our first experience leaving them in the care of someone else. Overall, they had a wonderful time & they will be back. 10/10 recommend booking Adria!”
“Brittany and Nicholas are the absolute best! Molly was extremely well taken care of, had the time of her life, and hardly wanted to leave! They give excellent updates with pictures and videos at all times and made sure that we could be gone with no worries at all”
“Jinjer and her family did an Amazing job. All 3 of our dogs were very happy and well cared for while with her. We got pictures and updates daily. We will definitely have Jinjer care for our babies again.”
“This was our first time using Lexy since we just moved to the area she serves. She was fabulous! She kept our in-house dog at her home and came to our home to feed the outside dog. She was very responsive, accommodating to our schedule changes and took excellent care of our pets. So relieved to have found our new local pet sitter!”
“Karen is outstanding and welcoming! Very lovely and safe farm for the dogs to enjoy during their time away. We set up and meet and greet the day before and everyone got along and bonded like instant best friends. Extremely kind and compassionate giving updates and photos of the fur babies having fun. Onsa was sad to leave after 4 days. We can’t wait to go back. Highly recommend using Karen’s home for pet sitting. We will only use her with entrusted care for our dog.”
“Haley was amazing! Our dog had a great time and came home calm and happy. Haley had great communication and sent so many wonderful pictures and videos. We felt very comfortable with the experience and would not hesitate to leave our baby with her again 😊”
About: I've lived with dogs my whole life and have taken care of room-mates' cats through college. I've trained my family dog to do tricks and love walking dogs in general. I have enough space in my apartment for cats who like their space. Also, I love to give attention to pets who are cuddlers. I'm currently a college student and I will be available at odd times in the day where others might be at work. If your pet needs a midday walk I would be happy to help! I love pets and would look forward to giving them a walk for the day or ensure they are well fed and tended to for a home visit.
About: My experience with animals is over 15 years. From walking/ feeding and watering/ playing fetch/ to giving medicine when needed. Your babies from young to old are given the best in my care. I'm a stay at home mom so I have plenty of time to care for your babies! The town I live is small and quiet so your pup should be extra cozy here. I have a cozy shaded (with plenty of room to move about) pen where your pup will stay when I'm not supervising them in the big fenced yard or talking walks.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Waynesville on Rover is $32.09 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 42 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Waynesville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
Sitters may also include daily walks in the neighborhood during your dog's boarding stay. You can also request photo and message updates throughout so you can see which local landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Waynesville 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 Waynesville.
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 Waynesville 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.
