“Hoochie Girl was spoiled for sure! She got to just lounge/veg in the AC most of the day since it was so hot out side! When we picked our girl up she greated us, then wanted to go back in the house with Victoria!”
“Randi was great! She helped us feel comfortable immediately. During the meet and greet she took us, her dog, and our dog on a walk to get acclimated to each other. She provided her knowledge about techniques she’s found helpful in working with our little one. During the booking she sent us photos daily and stayed in contact about everything. I would 100% recommend having your animals cared for by Randi!”
“Feel absolutely blessed to have Ashley watch our dog for us when we are out of town. Our dog feels right at home at her house every time which says so much about the care Ashley gives him!”
“She was great with Nora! She was super accommodating with my last minute booking and everything went smoothly. Very flexible with our pick up and drop off times which I appreciate. Would recommend her serviced!”
“Jessi was our first experience with dog boarding. She was excellent. She sent pictures everyday and interacted with our puppy like she was her own. Which is exactly what we wanted. We will be using her again!”
About: I am a former Veterinary Assistant student at OCVAS experienced in feline veterinary Care. Growing up in my hometown we owned 8 rescues from the silliest breeds to the most dramatic. I had found a passion for veterinary field way long ago and went to school to be a RVT. I am now studying to become a teacher! I started off spending quality time with my senior neighbor’s pups when they are out of town or running late and saw this opportunity as growing my connection with animals. I own 1 rescue cat named mimi, followed by her little sister Ladybug. They are my world & I believe that pets are therapeutic to life! They deserve great attention ❤️I wish to offer cat boarding services at this time in my home! I am available: Sundays- anytime Mondays-anytime Wednesdays-anytime Thursdays-anytime Fridays - anytime Saturdays from 8:00 am-10:00 pm (ON SELECT DAYS) •Excluding Select Holidays, check my calendar :) Please note ‼️I am only offering cat- only boarding at this time‼️ I am usually free throughout the week as I also babysit for 2 children. Sometimes I will be busy due to family time as I am a military wife and take given days off seriously, I may be busy taking care of my own pet or other emergencies. Pet care is personally super suitable for me because I value time, care & health. Just like spending my time taking care of furry friends and energizing my needs🐾! I will provide safe playtime in my house, I have a dedicated cat room for boarding with a cat tree, scratchers, lots of toys and more. The cat suite has a wide window that your cat can perch next to. Your cat will have their own personal litter box and feeding bowls, water bowls, food mats etc. During your pets stay I will create safe rewarding games/puzzle games for your pet and enrichment. (all clients shall mention any allergies) Any cats in need of taking medication, treatment or treated baths will be treated for under consent of owner.
About: My name is Patrick, my family has owned 6 dogs all from when they were puppies, I love dogs and will care for yours as if they are my own. I will walk with the dogs (run if requested) currently I have two dogs marlow and mimi one suffers from epilepsy so I know what to do if there are any problems with the dog or dogs. I can brush and groom dogs, I previously had a husky so I am used to shedding. My dogs love to go on walks, when I walk them I usually avoid taking the same route so they can have new smells and it seems to be more enjoyable for them. I love to meet new animals and learn about different breeds of dogs.
About: Hi! I’m Joseph, and I specialize in caring for dogs who need a calmer, controlled environment—especially pups who aren’t friendly with other animals. If your dog does best as the only pet in the home or needs extra space, structure, and understanding, they’re in the right hands. My day is structured 3-4 hour blocks with 1-2 hour breaks inbetween. When I do step away, your dog has access to a secure outdoor space where they can relax safely. I only watch one dog at a time to ensure your pup gets my full attention and zero stress. I do not mix dogs in my household due to the possibility of fleas and other preventable issues.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for 4 years, including overnight stays in owners' homes, always ensuring happy tails and wagging smiles! I pride myself on being reliable, attentive, and treating every pup like my own. Whether it’s snuggles, playtime, or keeping routines on track, I’m here to provide loving, stress-free care for your pets and home. ❤️🐾 My schedule is currently open and flexible, making it easy to accommodate your pet’s needs! However, spots are filling up fast as more families trust me to care for their beloved pets. Don’t wait too long— Book with me now to secure your dates before my calendar fills up! 🐾✨ Your dog’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. As a fellow dog owner, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member in someone else’s care. I treat every dog like my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and comfortable at all times. From sticking to routines to providing plenty of attention and supervision, you can count on me to keep your pup happy and secure. With years of experience and a genuine love for dogs, your pet is in caring, trustworthy hands. 🐾❤️

96% of sitters in Winkler 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 Winkler 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 Winkler.

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.

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 KS 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.
