About: I have fed, cuddled, and played with many different cats and dogs that we had from childhood until now. Pets of all kinds, have always been a part of my family and I would love to be a part of yours when you need to get away! I work from home so my schedule is flexible, accomodating mornings and evenings, which is perfect to tuck your little one in or feed them breakfast. I am available to drop in for walks, feedings, or even just socialization at your descretion. Anytime of day works for me as I can schedule around your needs.
“Nicole and Tim do great with our dog. She ran straight up to the door on drop off and was excited to see them again! Nicole and Tim send frequent updates and pictures and we feel very comfortable that all her needs are met. Would recommend to others looking for someone to care for their pets.”
“Mattie always has a great time with Fae and Jackie. We also really appreciate her speedy communication and how well she takes care of our pup. Thank you!”
“Katie was phenomenal and loved our Taz as if he was her own! We got lots of photos and updates and reassurance that he was adjusting well to his long stay with her. I definitely recommend Katie and will be rebooking!”
“From the moment I met Ruthie it was clear that she is my kind of person; a dog lover! We did a meet and greet prior to my drop-off date, making it evident that Ruthie is a responsible pooch-caregiver. Throughout my dog's stay with Ruthie I received photos and text messages and although I was confident that my dachshund was in good hands it was nice to receive proof. My dog told me in his language that he was happy I came to pick him up but also that he had a great little vacation. I highly recommend Ruthie!”
“I cannot say enough good things about the care Mandy provides. Not only does she provide a safe environment for our Theo, but he truly feels loved and at home with her and her family. We are so grateful to have a place where Theo is happy when there are times we can't take him with us. Highly recommend!”
“Zinaida was amazing. She was very flexible and accommodating for pick up and drop off. She took great care of the pups with walks and play time and sent lots of pictures. We will definitely rebook!”
“Elizabeth was great! She sent regular updates with pictures and I felt very comfortable with my dog in her care. Would recommend and use again!”
“Judith is fantastic!! Truly one of a kind pet care. You can tell Judith has been doing this a long time and really cares for all animals. She also donates 10% of your pups stay to a rescue - what an amazing act of service.”
“Rosie stayed with Jordan for a long first stay, and she was a very happy pup when we picked her up. Jordan was really easy to coordinate with. We would definitely have Rosie stay with him again!”
“Katie's home was very welcoming to us and our Murray. We met Katie, her son, mom and sister at our meet & greet. A very friendly family, all dog lovers. Murray made himself at home immediately, checking out the new territory, and quickly found a playmated, Maggie. We had a comfortable feeling immediately with no concerns that Murray would be well taken care of. Katie will be our go-to-sitter if needed in the future. Murray seconds this decision. He enjoyed his vacation and slept for 2.5 days after coming home!”
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.
“The peace of mind I have when I leave my puppy with Caitlin and Adam is invaluable. We were gone for almost 2 weeks and I never had a single concern. They take such good care of Jet!”
“Jessica has been the absolute best thing to happen to our family since relocating to St. Louis. We toured every boarding facility in the area, and I left each one feeling heartbroken. The tiny cages, constant noise, and extremely high prices were overwhelming, and there was no way I could leave our dogs there. Jessica cared for our two Australian Shepherds for nearly two weeks, and it was such a relief knowing they were safe, loved, and treated like family in her home. They also adored playing with her sweet puppy, Cooper, and all got along wonderfully. We are so grateful to have found her and could not recommend her more highly!”
“Christina did a very good job watching my dog Bernie. She did a great job keeping me updated on how he was doing throughout the stay. She was good with communication too and very flexible to my schedule. She had a great yard for him to release all that energy. I would recommend her for your pet sitting needs!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Bella Villa
Vikki and Dave were wonderful with my dog. They sent photos several times per day. I felt so at ease having him there. He had a wonderful time there. He has meds to take every day. Vikki did a great job giving them to him everyday! I will DEFINITELY take him there again!
Could not ask for better sitters! Murphy had the time of his life with them. Murphy has many physical and mental health issues and they were able to manage them all without issue. Lots of pictures and updates which is always appreciated. Murphy can't wait to see them again!
This was my first time using Barbara and company and they took great care of my THREE dogs! I was frequently updated with pictures, and both drop-off and pick-up went very smoothly. They prepped their house for my dogs' arrival and had them packed up & ready to go at pick-up.
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.
Ruthie and her significant other were both above and beyond great caretakers for my girl Meeka while I was away on 2 trips this month. She has multiple health issues right now, including some diarrhea that she was only just starting to improve from by the time my 2nd trip rolled around…I felt bad having to put that extra work on them but not only did they accommodate her, they helped by trying solutions that have really made a huge difference in her recovery and her even with arthritis pain management. All in all just felt very comfortable with knowing Meeka was so well cared for while I was away and that they were truly treating her like she was their own dog! Highly recommend and will be hoping to get to use them again the next time I travel!
Jori took great care of Churro during his 11-night stay. She kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the trip, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Churro came home safe and healthy, and it was clear he was well cared for. We’d be happy to book with Jori again and would definitely recommend her to others looking for a reliable and caring sitter.
Robyn took great care of our dog Grey! They took him on bike rides, got pup cups (all with permission), sent pictures and videos while watching him. Very responsive with all communication. We have booked with her multiple times now and have had a great experience each time!

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 Bella Villa 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 Bella Villa 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 Bella Villa.
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 Bella Villa. On Rover:
- 91% 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 Bella Villa 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.
