“Erika was so great to Blaze! She sent me pics and kept me updated. He had so much fun running around the backyard. He came home and slept from all the fun. I will definitely use Erika again! Thank you Erika!”
“I have a high-energy anxious Dalmatian and knowing that Mariah was a dog trainer gave me extra peace of mind. She’s also provided me with great tips to help me train my dog and curb unwanted behavior. We did a meet and greet first to introduce everyone so when it came time to drop off my dog I felt confident.”
“Melanie was fantastic with my dog, Monty. I enjoyed receiving multiple updates and lots of photos to let me know he was doing okay. I highly recommend using Melanie.”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Emily! ❤️ From the very beginning, I could tell that she genuinely cares about both your baby and her own babies. She took the time to do a meet-and-greet first and carefully introduced Soup to each of her dogs, which made me feel so comfortable leaving him with her. Emily’s dogs are all such sweet babies and very well behaved. 🥰 Soup absolutely LOVED being with them! From all the pictures and updates Emily sent us, we could tell he was having a blast. Honestly, I think he was living his best life there 😂❤️ He had so much fun playing and spending time with his new friends. What I appreciate most about Emily is that she doesn’t just “watch” your dog — she genuinely cares for them like one of her own. She sent us lots of pictures and updates, and seeing how happy and comfortable Soup was gave us so much peace of mind. Emily and her babies were incredibly sweet and loving toward him. We are so happy we found Emily and her sweet babies. ❤️ I would trust her with Soup again without hesitation and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will genuinely love and care for their baby. Thank you so much, Emily, for taking such amazing care of Soup and giving him the best little vacation! 🐶🐾❤️”
About: I have always been passionate about animal care, specifically dogs. I have 3.5 years of veterinary technician experience and have also worked at boarding facilities such as Pet Paradise. I am a student at Saint Louis University majoring in Biology, furthering my education in animal behavior. I enjoy jogging in my spare time, and have the stamina needed to play with or jog with pets. I am available on weekends during the day and most evenings. There’s nothing I love more than taking care of pets! I look forward to taking care of your fur babies! I am a current graduate student, and therefore am working several hours a day during the week, but I am available most nights and on the weekends anytime! I am a helicopter parent when it comes to my own dog, and treat other pets with the same level of care and caution. I love sending pictures (if allowed) to ensure great care, and frequently keeps owners updated on how their fur babies are doing.
“Danielle did a great job taking care of our dog. At the meet and greet Danielle asked great questions and helped us immediately feel as ease. Danielle provided frequent updates and was very responsive. She kept my dog busy and I could tell my dog was enjoying her stay. I would highly recommend Danielle to others looking for a sitter.”
“Wow! What a great experience. This was my first time using a service like this. I am so thankful I found this service and Karen. I immediately knew I made the right choice when I walked in. We were given a warm welcome by Karen, Squeak and Koda. Karen provided updates and sent photos. I am definitely going to be a repeat client.”
“Asia was so sweet and professional. When we first arrived Asia and her fur baby Crypto welcome us. Asia made my lil boy (Biskit) feel so at home. I asked Asia to send me text, pictures, and videos, and she did just that. That really made my heart fill of joy to see pictures and videos of my lil boy(Biskit) and to know that he was well taken care of. We thank you so much Asia from the bottom of our hearts 💕 Sylvia and Antwon Dudley.”
“Carly & Doug were excellent in taking care of our fur baby. I recommend them to anyone who would like to have top notch care for their fur babies. Thank you so much!!”
“Quinton was a very nice host to my fur baby! She was well taken care of and looked so happy in the photos he sent. Communicaton from him was definitely top tier. I’d definitely book again :)”
“Our dogs were happy and healthy when we picked them up after a 10-day stay. Catherine provided updates and pics throughout their stay. Her dog Bodie is great with other dogs, (big and small; we have a pug and a large yellow lab and he was safe and respectful with both of them. Catherine provided a meet and greet for us and the dogs prior to their stay on neutral territory at a nearby park. Her dog, Bodie, is excellently trained. Catherine has a calm assertive energy with the dogs which sets the tone for harmony in the ‘pack.’ We are so grateful for her care and expertise and will definitely return for another stay.”
“Tre'Ana is a great sitter and I will definitely use her services again. When I dropped him off her daughter wanted to play with soon as I got in the house lol. I appreciate when the family loves on Tyson just as much as I do. Thank you so much!”
“Harley was awesome with my Polly Pocket! I knew my recently adopted foster-fail dog would be great in Harley's hands while I traveled out of state for 5 days. Harley kept Polly busy with treat puzzles, training games, walks, and chasing bunnies in the backyard. I loved the pictures they sent and the thorough and honest updates about how Ms. Pocket was doing. And the cherry on top: I could immediately see some of the training Harley implemented with Polly, which was very appreciated as we settled back in to the daily grind back in St. Louis after the trip. Would absolutely book again with Harley in a heartbeat!”
“Jessica was the sweetest rover we have ever left our fur baby with! We got so many high quality professional pics every few hours and lots of communication and that to during a holiday weekend. Couldn’t not recommend her enough for the fur babies. Such a sweet soul that is so kind to animals and takes such good care of them overall. Thanks so much!”
“Jenna was great! She accepted my short notice request and we did a meet and greet to ensure our dog would get along with her cat, and it went well. She sent me updates and photos. Would definitely book with her again!”
“Amy and her family were great! She sent lots of pictures and it looked like Scout quickly felt part of their family. Walks in Forest Park and apple picking were his adventures. The neighborhood is great. We would very much recommend.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Affton
Nicole and Tim took absolutely wonderful care of Daisy during her first Rover experience! They did a fantastic job keeping her routine as close to normal as possible while showering her with snuggles, love, and plenty of playtime. The frequent photo updates were especially appreciated and really helped ease our minds as puppy parents leaving her behind. It was clear Daisy was in loving, caring hands, and we couldn’t have asked for a better first experience. We would happily trust them with our girl again! ❤️
My kitty was at Jennifer‘s home for three weeks while I traveled. Felix adapted very well to the four caretakers as well as the other kitties either living or being boarded in the home. I received regular updates via rover.com as well as WhatsApp. I will definitely use Jennifer and her team again without hesitation because of the exemplary care my Kat received.
Katie is such a reliable, proactive, and professional sitter. We always have complete peace of mind whenever we leave our dogs in her care. She takes such great care of them and makes sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well looked after. Honestly, sometimes we worry our dogs don’t even want to come home because they’re having so much fun at Katie’s! We couldn’t recommend her enough.

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Affton is $28 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $25 and $50 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.
There are 1,104 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Affton. About 93% of Affton sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
