“Our Fur Baby Charlee, could not have had a better placed to stay than with Debbie. We knew she was in great hands and would be well taken care of. Debbie sent us many pics of Charlee and it was great to see them along with notes about how she was doing. Personally, Debbie and her husband are genuine people with very kind hearts! We will definitely have Charlee stay with Debbie when a need arises. Charlee might even have to visit occasionally to say hello as she loves Debbie and her hubby!”
“Dawn made me feel very comfortable leaving our pup with her for the week. She is very personable and obviously a pet person. She sent photos and communication.

“I’m so thankful that I found Lynn & her husband to care for my little doggie while I was out of town. I greatly appreciate that they took the time to meet with me and Latte ahead of his stay. Lynn introduced her sweet doggies, Nellie & Bentley, to him and then spent about an hour letting the pups mingle as we talked about Latte. Lynn was very responsive to communication, she was flexible and kept me updated daily with texts & pictures of Latte. He was treated like a member of their family… well loved & cared for. I will definitely be leaving Latte with Lynn in the future!”
“This was our first time leaving our Rottie while we went on vacation. I think it is safe to say, as long as Kirsten is in town and available we found our sitter when we go on vacation.

So thankful for the peace of mind I was able to have while on vacation, knowing our fur baby was so well taken care of!”

“Haiquan and his family were phenomenal with my cat masterchief! They took wonderful care of him and treated him as if he was their own pet. Haiquan was super responsive and would send updates on masterchief regularly. When I went to pick him up to take him home, it seemed like Masterchief didn’t want to leave and bonded with his Rover family! I recommend Haiquan for pet sitting and boarding and if I need to use Rover again, I will definitely be requesting him!”

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 Cave 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 Cave.
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 Cave 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.
