“Three stays in two weeks probably says it all. Soup absolutely loves Emily and her babies. At this point, her house is basically his second home. We trust her completely and feel so lucky to have found her!”
“My dog, Milo, had a great stay with Misty and her family. She was quick to answer any of my questions or check ins during his stay and took pictures. Milo looked very happy and seemed to be in good spirits and well taken care of when I picked him up. I felt very comfortable leaving Milo in Misty’s care and will definitely use her again should Milo need care in the future.”
“Allison and her family were great! Our dogs clearly were a little anxious being at a new place, but Allison gave us updates and was extremely great with them. We absolutely would trust her with our dogs again!”
“Melissa and family kept us constantly updated with our pup during her stay and were incredibly understanding when our flight was delayed and pivoted to doing a drop off. We cannot thank them enough for their care of her.”
“I had a great experience with Saranya. They were communicative, reliable, and clearly cared about my pet’s well-being. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. My pet came home happy and well cared for. I would definitely book with them again and highly recommend them to others!”
“We had a great experience! She made our nervous dog feel comfortable from the very beginning and treated her like she was one of her own. She kept in great communication throughout the entire stay, sent lots of updates and photos, and gave us peace of mind while we were away. It was obvious how much she genuinely cared for our sweet girl and we will absolutely use her again.”
“I felt great about leaving my dogs with Kathryn! Caramel and Samson had a fabulous time. Kathryn was super considerate about giving our family updates/pics, and she couldn’t have been nicer.”
“Blanca (and her daughter) provided excellent care for our 2 pups. We received frequent pictures and were confident our fur babies were receiving lots of love and cuddles. Will definitely use Blanca again!”
“Kari took great care of our pup! From the great pics she sent it looks like she had an amazing time. She put us at ease while travelling, knowing she was in good hands. Thanks again!”

“I highly recommend Beth! Had to go on a family vacation to Florida and leave my dog, Gary, for over 5 days for the first time ever. Beth was very accommodating and Gary had a blast! Will definitely use her again when I need to. 5/5.”
“Tom and his family were very friendly and welcoming to our pet. Copper had a lot of fun lounging around and going on walks - we enjoyed seeing the pictures and will definitely use Tom again!”
“Evan and Kaleigh are amazing! I was delayed on the drop off day. They were so patient and encouraged me to take my time getting there. We received pictures and updates throughout the duration of our vacation and were playing with the dogs when I picked them up. My pups were so well taken care of that they barely greeted me, which I took as a great sign! Thank you Evan and Kaleigh for giving us the peace of mind during our vacation!”
“Best experience ever!! Reema was so sweet and took great care of our Maverick over the holidays. She kept in touch and sent photos daily. We would highly recommend her!”

“Andrea was incredible with my Zoey! She was accommodating and kind with a very last minute holiday request. Even more so, she was patient with my anxious girl during the fireworks and great at communicating with me! Can’t recommend her enough.”
“Jennifer is such a great sitter! She provided daily updates with info and photos, and sometimes videos too. I knew my pup was having a fun time with her pups and I didn't need to worry about him at all! I highly recommend Jennifer!”

Jessica did a great job keeping me informed and updated about my dog Lucy, which made me feel really comfortable. She sent photos of Lucy having fun with the other pups and checked in daily. I would definitely recommend her to others and will use her again in the future!
This was my first time using Rover, and I’ll definitely be booking with Emily again!! You can tell she’s not doing this just for the extra money, but because she genuinely loves meeting and spending time with new dogs. It’s clear she really cares about the dogs she watches, and that made me feel great about leaving Cane in her care. Thanks again for taking such good care of Cane!!
Greg and family took care of Raven for 10 days while we were visiting our son's family in North Carolina. Everything went very well it seems and we are so pleased with the care and compassion that Greg and team put into their care for Raven. We received a picture each day which helped ease our sense of missing her. This is just the perfect place for her. We've already scheduled two more doggie day care sessions and truly appreciate working with them. Can't praise them enough as Raven is not the easiest dog to take care of.
The graciously allowed Waffles to stay with them despite the booking being short notice. They were very flexible and accommodating on the drop off and pick up times, and send pictures through the stay, which is always greatly appreciated. Great experience and look forward to be a repeat customer next time I am in need of help with boarding Waffles while in St. Louis.
Amy and Carl took the very best care of our girls. They kept us up to date on how they were doing. When we came home the girls were happy and content. Amy set up a little cubbyhole for our Bischon, who loves to sleep in little spaces. They played fresbee with our boarder Collie, her very favorite game. After getting to know them we had no concerns about leaving them. Our dogs are not easy, a little spoiled, but they felt right at home. I will definitely call on them again.
Dawn did a wonderful job taking care of our dog, Hank. She kept us updated throughout his stay and sent us photos, which gave us peace of mind knowing he was happy and doing well. Hank had the full run of the house and clearly felt comfortable and at home. When we picked him up, he seemed like he had really enjoyed his stay with Dawn. It’s obvious that she genuinely cares about the dogs in her care. We would definitely recommend Dawn and would be happy to have her watch Hank again!
Blanca is the absolute best!!! She took amazing care of my dog Oscar. I loved all the pictures, videos, and updates she sent me during his stay. The communication was great and she was very flexible with the drop off and pick up times. I will definitely be using her again in the future.

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.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
94% of sitters in Winchester 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 Winchester 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 Winchester.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Winchester. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Winchester 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
