“Crissy was flexible, accommodating, and sweet. We loved the photos she sent. Our two dogs came back happy and tired! We will definitely be in touch with her again.”
“Stephen and his family were great with our dog (and family member) Rainey. So much better to have a loving family take care of her than boarding her. I highly recommend them. Scott”
“Mikayla took great care of my pup while I was away! She sent a bunch of updates and pictures throughout the time my pup was with her too, which was so nice to put my heart at ease. I highly recommend her to care for your pup! 10/10 will definitely use her again.”
“Sharon and Glen had me feeling so comfortable when caring for my sweet pup. They constantly gave me updates and photos. They have two sweet dogs that were very precious and kind. I would recommend hiring them!”
“Angie C is the best. She gave my Bailey the best experience for her first time away from home and me. Angie and her family gave her so much love that Bailey cried when it was time to leave. Angie sent me pictures everyday, even gave her a bath and took her for walks. I recommend her 100%.She was amazing!”
“Abigail was super nice and gave lots of updates with photos! I could tell our dog had a good time by how tired she was after days of playing. Thanks again!”
“Kit seemed to have a great time with Jessica and her adorable Pomeranians and the Kitty. When we got home, she slept most of the day because she was so tuckered out from all of the fun. Jessica provided daily updates and pictures, which helps put my mind at ease. You are in great hands with Jessica…in fact, I just rebooked her for my next trip.”
“So impressed with Laura and I didn’t have any worries at all. She was attentive to his needs and administering eye drops. I was grateful to see numerous pics and I could tell he was having a good time! Will definitely book again!”
“Cameron was an amazing petsitter for my girl, Raleigh. He cared for her just as I would. Every day I received a picture and a rundown of her activities and how her day went. Would highly recommend Cameron to anyone looking for a caring petsitter and will definitely be using his services again in the future.”
“Colin and Tiffanee were so great! They took excellent care of my needy dog when a last minute trip came up. Clearly welcoming him into their home and sending me lots of pictures.”
“Ronel is the absolute best! I have three dogs with very different personalities and very different needs. She very quickly picked up on what each one needed and individualized their care. She even slept on the couch with my 17 year old dog so he would be comfortable. Loved the pictures and videos she sent so I could see they were doing ok. I will absolutely bood with Ronel the next time I need a sitter”
“Had great experience with Jessie! She was super patient with both of our dogs, but especially with our dog who takes a minute to warm up to new dogs. She kept me updated all weekend with videos and pictures. Couldn't recommend enough!”
“Kelly- Thank you so much for taking such great care of Addie! This was my first time boarding her with you and it was a wonderful experience for both of us. It is clear Kelly has a lot of experience with dogs and their different behaviors. You and your husband are so compassionate and caring, and it is obvious how much you truly enjoy pet sitting. Kelly sent daily updates and pictures. She is also an excellent communicator, and I had complete peace of mind knowing Addie was in such great hands. Will definitely utilize Kelly again. Mary Ann A.”
“Ashley was absolutely wonderful with Cici! We needed a sitter on very short notice while we were out of town for our wedding weekend, and she was so kind and accommodating. She took excellent care of Cici and kept us updated throughout the weekend with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Her kids were also so sweet and gentle with Cici, and it was clear she felt comfortable and well cared for. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend Ashley to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”
“Alexandria was amazing! Daisy was beyond spoiled and taken care of her entire stay! Truly I don’t think she wanted to leave her “staycation”!! We got tons of pics and updates and already are booking Alexandria for our next trip! Thanks for taking such good care of our little dog!”
“Michelle has a big heart for the dogs and spoils them with lots of love and toys. She has 2 adorable dogs of her own. We were happy to know she has a 6ft fence to keep my fence jumper in and safe. Both my dogs seemed happier and more at ease when we picked them up opposed to boarding. We would love for Michelle to watch our kids again sometime. Thanks!”
About: Hi beautiful people! I am Sky and I was raised around animals and have spent everyday of my life with them, so I started doing paid pet sitting gigs and fell in love with it. I have experience with dogs, cats, and farm animals, as well as special needs and elderly pets. I don’t mind carrying an elderly dog outside to potty, and I will clean up any accidents. I love them all like my own! If you are over 20 minutes from my home, I may charge an additional fee for mileage on drop ins and overnight stays. I don’t mind taking bookings further away, but this means less time to check on other animals and more time driving. (And those dang gas prices are awful!) This has become my full time job and I love seeing my regulars every week, along with new faces! I spend all my time with animals. I prefer to do safe pet sitting in your home, providing updates often and following all rules you have set for your home. Please be specific about rules for your home and the amount of care you are looking for. My prices are firm and reflect my experience and reviews. Constant care will be charged at an hourly rate instead of an overnight rate so I am fairly compensated for the extra time spent. I have worked hard to learn about this business and to build clientele who respect me and my time and I will only take new bookings that understand this! 🫶🏻
“Cai loved Carmen and Kate and their crew. He enjoyed all the toys! We will definitely call Carmen and Katie when Cai needs a fun place to stay. Thanks so much. Cai and Margaret”

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.
