“They took care of my dog for a week and I definitely recommend them they are good people. They made my dog feel at home and made me feel at ease knowing she was in good hands.”
“Bridget watched our dog Gus for a week. She updated us with pictures every day and was very communicative. Gus had a wonderful time. We’ll definitely use Bridget again in the future.”
“Mei & Mitchell took great care of our dog! Mei stayed in contact daily provided at least a picture a day of our buddy, which was so reassuring! After a miscommunication on our part, our dog chewed a hole at the corner of his bed & Mei even took the time to repair it. It was clear our dog was treated well & had a great time while we were gone. Thank you, Mei & Mitchell!”
“Brittney and Max were great! They loved having our dog (Leo) and were great about sending updates and pictures while we were away! We were very happy with them, recommend them to anyone and if we need a sitter again we’ll be going back to them!”
“Nicole was wonderful! She provided excellent communication throughout our trip and sent photos, which gave me great peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dog was well cared for, and having fun. In fact, when he came home, he cried because he missed his new friends and the environment he had grown so attached to. We couldn’t ask for a better indication of how happy and comfortable he was in her care. Highly recommend!”
“Awesome family! Very happy with the kindness this family has it was all smiles. My pup enjoyed himself and was super tired when he got home. I appreciated the welcoming environment and all of the pictures I received during his stay!”
“Shawn is the BEST! Our dog is older and she can be a bit stand off-ish but he took amazing care of her! He provided great updates, photos, and asked questions proactively whenever he wasn’t sure about something. It says a lot when your dog comes home happy as can be and acts like she never went anywhere. We will definitely rebook with him anytime we go out of town! 5 stars!!!”
“Upon the first conversation and meeting, she made us feel comfortable and we knew our fur baby would be safe and well cared for. Being out of the country for 3 weeks, we needed no worries and Saige delivered! When we picked up Mali, she looked happy and loved. We will definitely be using her again. Thank you!”
“Amanda and her family took great care of my Remi. She sent pictures and updates twice a day and Remi always looked happy and having fun. I would definitely recommend her for anyone looking for great care of their dogs. We will be definitely using her again!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, including 2 senior dogs and 2 puppies. I currently have 2 dogs of my own—a Pit Bull and a Lab—as well as a cat. I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family and make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away. 🐾 I have 2 dogs and a cat that I care for daily. You let me know what needs to be done and I can do it. I can keep pets separated or I can crate an animal, if preferred. I will care for the animal however you are most comfortable with.
“Billie was fantastic. She kept me updated throughout the 10 days while I was away. Photos and commentary that helped me find comfort with the state of Lucy's (my dog) separation anxiety. Lucy had a great time and I didn't have to worry about her care. I will definitely be booking with Billie again.”
“We love her! Our boys have stayed with Mackenzie twice and each stay has been perfect. Shes prompt on communication, sends pictures and updates, and makes us feel comfortable with leaving them while we’ve had trips. Highly recommend!”
“Crissy’s place was perfect for Eugene! She had small older pups with their own ramp to get on the couch! She sent a couple pics and it was a smooth overnight!”
“Mikayla did a great job with my dog Lilah! Sent lots of photos and gave updates on what she was up to each day. She scheduled a meet and greet before the booking to ensure our dogs got along and they had no issues! I would definitely book with Mikayla again :)”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Bates City 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 Bates City.
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 Bates City 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.
