“Jamie was great! He took great care of our cats, our older dog, and our fish! Jamie was very thorough in his descriptions for his visits, and the pics were wonderful.”
“Kyani was absolutely amazing with my dogs (Laila & Bowe) She was attentive, she took tons of videos and pictures which kept me connected to my fur babies. She gave them plenty of play time and I can tell by the pictures my fur babies loved hanging out with Kyani. If I ever need a dog sitter I'll be contacting Kyani.”

About: I am a lifelong dog lover with hands-on experience, including volunteering at the Humane Society. I provide dependable, caring walks and treat every dog like family. I work full time for the St Louis Blues but I have an hour long lunch, work ends at 4 pm and I have most weekends available. I grew up with dogs my whole life so I am more than comfortable around dogs all shapes and sizes. I love to walk so they'll get plenty of exercise. I volunteer at the humane society so I feel more than comfortable creating a safe environment. I live alone and have no pets so I will be able to give your dog my full attention.
About: I have been taking care of pets from 5 years old. My dog, Winnie, is now 16 years old and still kickin’! He lives in Tennessee with my parents. I have grown up taking care of dogs and have a lot of experience with different breeds. I adopted my sweet kitty, Noodle, when he was 11. He’s now around 19 years old and has accidents on occasion, so I am used to messes with senior and young pets. I am currently working part time, but I am available during the morning and late afternoon. My weekends are mostly free. I keep my phone around at all times, so I am pretty flexible: I will always make sure your pet has clean water and the recommended amount of food. I will clean up any accidents if they occur and notify you of any abnormal behavior. You will also receive plenty of pet photos!

I live in walking distance to Lafayette Square Park for longer dog walks.
“Emily was fantastic! We have 1 very reactive dog so it is a bit of a challenge to get her acclimated to new people. Emily had such a calming presence and was so patient with our dog. She communicated very well and followed all instructions. We have already booked Emily for more trips and visits.”
“Kaity did a great job taking care of my two kitties. It was wonderful coming home to happy cats with no worries. All instructions were followed and she even went above and beyond by bringing in 2 heavy boxes for me. Will definitely use again if/when I need. Thanks Kaity!”
“Lauren was great! She took great care of our kitty (Persey) and was flexible and super to work with! Our cat is highly anxious and xenophobic, yet she interacted with Lauren on the first night. We highly recommend her and will definitely book her to care for Persey when we take trips in the future! 😊”

About: Since I was a little girl, I’ve known I was meant to work with animals. It’s more than a passion—it’s my purpose. Pets have always brought me peace, joy, and fulfillment, whether they were mine or someone else’s. Over the years, I’ve raised everything from Great Danes to Pit-Husky mixes. I currently care for my special-needs English Mastiff, Kayser, and have supported senior and rescue dogs—each requiring patience, trust, and personalized care. Motivated by my commitment to animal well-being, I returned to school to pursue my dog training certification. I also hold certifications in animal welfare, pet CPR, and first aid. My approach is rooted in positive reinforcement and a strong belief in creating an informed, compassionate pet guardian community. My mission is to be a bridge between animals and their guardians—prioritizing not just obedience, but behavioral health, emotional enrichment, and the deeper bond that comes from truly understanding and nurturing the whole animal. Pet care is a part of my everyday routine, so I’ve learned to build my schedule around it. I’m usually up early to handle morning feedings, walks, and check-ins, which leaves me available mid-morning through early afternoon for appointments, training sessions, or visits. I also keep some flexibility in the evenings and weekends for clients who need extra support or who have specific routines for their pets. Because animals are part of my daily life, fitting in care—whether mine or someone else’s—comes naturally. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect and attention I’d want in my own. I stick closely to the routines the pet is familiar with—whether that’s feeding times, walk schedules, medication, or playtime—because consistency helps them feel secure. I take my time to build trust with each animal, using gentle handling and positive reinforcement. I also pay close attention to their behavior and energy, so I can catch any signs of stress or discomfort early. My goal is always to keep pets calm, comfortable, and happy in their own environment while giving families peace of mind knowing their pets are in caring, capable hands.

Kyani always goes above and beyond for our fur babies. She even noticed a precautionary water advisory and made sure to go get jugs of filtered water for them. My husband and I are so impressed by her level of attention and care for our doggies and it gives us such peace of mind while away.
Teresa is amazing! Always on time and sent good photos. She took good care of my two cats. My cats were really shy and still learning to meet new people, so I was a bit afraid at the first when I had to travel. So I was really excited to see how they warmed you and how comfortable they looked in the photos with Teresa, so thank you.
Tamera has been such a wonderful help for us. She comes by for 30 minute visits while my boyfriend and I are at work, always giving our dogs plenty of playtime, attention, and a chance to go outside. She’s very professional, consistently kind, and has great communication. It gives us so much peace of mind knowing our dogs are in such good hands. Highly recommend Tamera to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!!!
Hayley is great with Hopper and takes good care of him when i have to be away. She keeps good communication so i know what’s going on which I love! I’ve used her service multiple times now and will continue to do so when I need someone trustworthy and great at what they do!

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Cahokia stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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.

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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
