“Our Ozzy stayed with Amanda over the weekend and it went so well! Ozzy has never stayed with other dogs so this was a new experience. Amanda introduced the 4 dogs to Ozzy one at a time before we left which we greatly appreciated. She ended each day with a video compilation of Ozzy and highlighted many details about his experiences which we found so fun to read. We know Amanda and her family showed him lots of love.”
“Another stay with Mallory in the books😊 Sophie and Enzo really enjoyed their five night stay with Mallory and her family. She sent me a pic of my pups curled up together, sleeping like they do at home. She is a very responsive pet-sitter, answering my texts within a few minutes. It’s so convenient to drop off and pickup at her home since she’s so close to the airport, and she has been very flexible when schedules flights aren’t always on time. Mallory will be my first call when I need to go out of town again!”
“She was so welcoming to the dogs and they loved it. You could tell they had a great time. She was very responsive to questions and easing my concerns before I left them. I would absolutely use them again”
“Linda was nothing less than fabulous!! We were in town visiting and realized our dog wasn’t going to do well in my daughters apt alone so we found Linda. We were super lucky to find her last minutes. Strongly recommend.”

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.
“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.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better couple to watch our Molly! From the moment we dropped her off, we could tell she was in amazing hands. They were so attentive, caring, and genuinely engaged with her—even at 3 AM when Molly decided it was the perfect time to discover a squeaky toy! 😂 The updates and videos were absolutely amazing and gave us such peace of mind while we were away. They kept us in the loop, and their communication was wonderful. They especially helped calm my husband’s nerves about leaving Molly, which meant so much to us! It was also such a sweet bonus that our kids had a great time too. They loved the beautiful fish pond and had so much fun collecting little rock treasures from the yard. 🥰 It truly felt like Molly was staying with family rather than just being boarded. We are so grateful for the love, attention, and care they gave her. We would absolutely recommend them and will definitely be booking with them again! ❤️🐾”
“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 ?”
“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!”
“First time using Delaney and first time using Rover. She wa great with our Cavalier Sailor. I will not hesitate to use here many times again. Sailor loves her and was so great with her.”
About: I've had dogs my entire life! My first pup that was actually mine was a Great Dane named Mazie. So I've definitely had experience with big dogs and am pretty comfortable with them. I've also owned pit bulls that ended up having puppies so I've been able to experience the complete dog journey from newborn to final bark. ( :( ) I do work full time but am able to do a drop-in during my lunch hour if needed. I'm also available most nights and weekends! I do work full time on the south side, but I get a one hour lunch break and can let your pet out or go on walks during that time! My evenings and weekends are generally free to help with pet care! I don’t have a fence, but I have a nice full yard and my dog Laney is super friendly and will keep your pup company!
“Selena is an amazing sitter. She loved our dogs like they were her own. I was impressed with how she handled the tough stuff: the accidents, separation anxiety, hesitancy of the dogs. We got numerous updates - it felt like we never left them. We will use her services in the future!”
“Serinitee super sweet and great with my babies. She communicates well with any questions and concerns either of us had. Mabel and Rowdy were well taken care of without doubt and I would highly recommend. I will be using her again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Willard
I have a bit of an erratic schedule and my plans can change quickly. Charles and Sammy took my boys on short notice and were very flexible with the timeline of my trip. Merle and Duke are my two dogs, they are 8 years old but still have youthful energy and a need to play and explore. While I was an away we received daily photos of them engaging with other dogs and going on walks. It was a real peace of mind for us knowing that the dogs were being cared for both physically and mentally. 10/10 would recommend Charles and Sammy to anyone.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Willard is $33 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $33 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 180 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Willard. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
97% of sitters in Willard 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 Willard 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 Willard.
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 Willard 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.
