“Jennifer is definitely among the greatest sitters you can get! She was so caring and accommodating. Her cats are also very sweet and sociable, it was great to see how well they got along with my cat Tori. She also sent a lot of photos and videos so I can tell Tori is having a great time at Jennifer's place. Highly recommended to anyone who needs to board their fur babies!”
“Great service! My dog Pompeii was well taken care of. He had loads of fun and was very active while being taken care of while I was out of town for my daughter's wedding. Great communication along with photo updates during his stay. Highly recommended!”
“We love Paula and, most importantly, our little Augie loves her, too! She takes excellent care of the dogs in her care and you can tell she really enjoys them! So glad we found her with the help of Rover!”
“Sonja treated our dog so well I'm surprised he wanted to come home. She sent pictures while we were away of their trip to a park, snuggles, playing, chewing on a bone, and looking very happy. We are happy to have such a high-quality dog sitter!”
“Our golden doodle, Gus LOVES Sally! She takes such good care of him and all the other dogs that come into her care. She sends us pictures of all the fun he’s having while we are away. Thank you so much, Sally! 💕”
“Nicole and Tim were great sitters! They were flexible, very quick to respond, and their home was very clean. They took great care of Quinn and I know she had a great time with them.”
“Lucy was fantastic with Koda! He's a high-energy adolescent shepherd mix, so I'm always grateful when I find someone who really understands dogs and is thoughtful about introductions, play, and group dynamics. She sent updates and videos throughout the weekend, which I appreciated so much, and it was clear that Koda was having an absolute blast. He came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. As a dog sitter myself, I can be a little picky about who I leave my dog with, and I would not hesitate to book with Lucy again. Highly recommend!”
“Wow! Judith was amazing! So professional, so easy going, so nice and genuinely cared about my dog. I was SO comfortable leaving my baby with her. She wanted to know everything about Nikki. Bed times, feeding times, where Nikki liked to be scratched!!!! I loved that she called my dog “her guest.” Another amazing thing was Judith sent not only photos during the day and evening but a little information about Nikki’s day. That way I got a glimpse of how Nikki was doing. Plus, Nikki is a senior dog and Judith had no problem with her special needs. . She even spoiled her with some treats (which she made sure I was okay with) and spoiled her. We found the perfect animal lover to take care of our Nikki while we had to be away. Judith is our go to for sure! Xoxox”
“Ali was great with our Tucker he is 3months still learning everything as he grows this was our first time using Rover , and we are very pleased, she was not only so kind and humble with us and Tuck but her communication is awesome she sent updates and lots of pictures which we loved so much. I had to extend 1 extra night due to our flight and she was nothing but great and understanding with me I’m so grateful for her and her daughter Tucker was in great hands! Made our few day trip less stressful we no worries!”
“My dog, Flora, stayed with Wendy for over a week and I would say we both had a great experience. Wendy was extremely communicative from the beginning prior to our dog’s visit which was appreciated. Received daily updates with photos of their walks, playing outside with the other dogs in the large fenced in yard, nap time or snuggled up on the couch. Great to see Flora enjoying her time away as boarding can be stressful. Wendy went out of our way to accommodate our dog’s special needs and that was extremely important to me. Will definitely book with Wendy again.”
“This was my wife and I’s first time booking with Alycia and we couldn’t have been happier with our decision! Alycia and her partner, Derek, were so welcoming and friendly, Thor seemed instantly comfortable in their home. Alycia provided thorough updates throughout Thor’s stay and was such a pleasure to communicate with. We will definitely be booking again and would absolutely recommend to others.”
“Our dog enjoyed her stay at Katie’s! Katie was attentive to her needs and her dog got along great with ours. Katie’s home is cozy and Finley enjoyed the large backyard. I hope to be able to rebook with her in the future!”
“Julia was fantastic! Great at communication and very sweet. She helped my fur baby at a very hard time! I would recommend her to anyone! Very caring and compassionate! Your fur baby will be in great and loving hands with Julia!”
“Amelia was great! My dog was totally comfortable at her home. She sent pictures each day and kept us posted on how he was doing. She also took him on big walks through the parks. Would definitely recommend and will use again!”
“Axel came back happy and healthy at the end of his stay. Ben was quick and easy to communicate with. I would definitely use Ben again for future boardings.”
About: I’ve been up around animals my whole life and have experience with all different types. I’m comfortable with pets at every stage, from energetic puppies and kittens to senior pets who need a little extra patience and care. I’m reliable when it comes to sticking to routines, whether that’s specific feeding times, multiple daily walks, or just giving your pet the attention they’re used to. I genuinely love spending time with animals and will treat your pet like my own while you’re away. I work remotely, so I’m home throughout the day and able to give pets plenty of attention, potty breaks, and playtime. I also go on several walks throughout the day for dogs that need extra exercise or energy release. I’m available for boarding in my home, as well as drop-in visits and check-ins throughout the day depending on your pet’s needs and routine. I have a fenced-in yard where dogs can safely run around and explore, and I always make sure pets are supervised and comfortable while in my care. I’m happy to follow any feeding schedules, medication instructions, crate routines, or special requests to help your pet feel at home. I can care for pets at my house or make visits to your home throughout the day to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible.
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Affton is $40
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Affton
Sally is the best.dog.caregiver ever!! She loves our little poodle Zosha and Zosha can't wait to have a vacay at Sally's house! She walks her every day, and Zosha loves to lay across her legs in the evening on the sofa. She also sends us pictures of Zosha everyday and lets us know how she is doing. Sally is so loving to the dogs she watches - we are so happy to have found her and Zosha is a regular visitor in her home. Thank you Sally - you are the best!!
This is the second time we leave our little dog with Erica for at least a week. She is great with our dog and the other dogs she takes care of. She is very good at reading a dog's personality and adjusts accordingly. Every time we leave our dog, he gets a little sad and anxious and Erica does a great job at comforting him and making him feel welcomed. So much so that when we pick him up, he's very happy and excited like he's at his second home. She's great at sending updates and being flexible when we have unexpected travel issues. Thanks, Erica, for being so great at what you do!
We can't say enough wonderful things about Katie! Our dog Abby absolutely loves staying with her — every time we drop her off, it's clear she's in the best hands. As pet owners, there's nothing more reassuring than knowing your furry family member is happy and well cared for.
I am very impressed with how well the dog sitting went and how great of care she took care of my dog. The picture updates were wonderful and she did a great job communicating. I could tell my dog was very happy and didn’t want to leave. I would definitely recommend to others as I am very pleased.

Every sitter on Rover 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.
91% of Affton sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Affton 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 Affton 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 Affton.
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 Affton 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.
