“She was amazing with my rescue! I was pretty nervous as hes high anxiety and it was an entirely new environment for him, but she was able to ease both mine and his anxieties by keeping me informed throughout his stay and sending lots of pictures! Definitely recommend!”
“Pepper was well cared for and Katie was super patient with his reclusive behavior in a new environment. Very communicative throughout the whole stay. Would definitely book again!”
“I rebooked with Evan, and once again he was there for us, even with very short notice. Our travel plans changed unexpectedly and we had multiple flight delays, and Evan was incredibly flexible and accommodating through it all. I truly appreciate the care he gives Luna and the peace of mind I have knowing she is in good hands. He sends pictures, keeps me updated, and makes sure Luna is well cared for and loved. We’re so grateful for Evan and will definitely book with him again!”
“We had a fantastic experience! Yingfei took wonderful care of our Frenchie for 11 days, including giving her daily allergy medication and keeping us updated with photos and messages throughout our trip. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was in such caring and capable hands. Our dog came home happy, healthy, and well loved. We would absolutely book with Yingfei again and highly recommend her!”
“I needed someone to watch my 14 yr old dog, who has some anxiety issues on short notice. Amie had some great reviews so I contacted her and she was able to care for him, while I was away. I received updates and pictures throughout his stay. Which made me feel good about the care he was getting. I would definitely recommend Amie as a pet sitter, if you’re in need of one.”
“Kelly took wonderful care of my dog, Jeze, and I couldn’t be more grateful! Jeze can be a bit particular about eating but Kelly went above and beyond and hand fed her. Kelly was patient, attentive, and clearly experienced with animals. She kept me updated with photos and messages, and it was obvious that Jeze was happy and comfortable. I had total peace of mind while I was away, and I would absolutely trust Kelly again. Highly recommend!”
“Our Pup loved his time with Dawn! She was very proficient in keeping us up to date with photos. And she was also very flexible on timing for pick up and drop off! Thank you Dawn!”
“I had a great experience with Saranya. They were communicative, reliable, and clearly cared about my pet’s well-being. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. My pet came home happy and well cared for. I would definitely book with them again and highly recommend them to others!”
“This was our first time booking with Debbie, which meant my anxiety was high leaving Gerti with yet another new sitter. I had nothing to worry about though because Debbie was wonderful with the photos and updates she sent me while we were away. And by the end of Gerti's stay, it looked like she had really warmed up to Debbie.”
“I don’t want to leave this review because then everyone will want to bring their babies to Barb and Steve and their availability will go down, because they are awesome! We have two dogs, they come with lots of meds and instructions. I also have one that temperamental and can snap at people and dogs, in addition, the other one that is struggling with eating and taking pills. They really took care of them like I take care of them. They spoiled them, loved them and took care of them as if they were their own. They worked with all their issues and sent pictures so I could see they’re loved while we’re away. There are no words to express how stress free your trips away from home can feel knowing your babies are getting taken care of properly and loved while you have to be away. Truly amazing people for the babies and what all sitters should be like.”

About: I have taken care of animals my whole life and have sixteen years with grooming training and three years of drop in care I take what I do very serious I have my own business and am looking for more clients and just love being with animals that I want to fill my time. I love hanging out with animals it makes me feel good. And if your comfortable my pup likes to join sometimes. I do what ever my clients want and need done. No questions asked u like to spoil my clients. Make them as happy and healthy
About: I grew up in a house full of animals, so loving and caring for pets is second nature to me! Our household currently includes two cats (Walter and Wanda). When your pet stays with us, they become part of the family—expect plenty of belly rubs, playtime, and pampered care! Being a Stay at home mom, I have flexibility that allows me to do things like hiking trails, running at the lake, and house/pet sit for my friends and family. Growing up with both indoor and outdoor animals has helped me adapt to different pets behaviors and still create a trusting environment so they feel safe.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 15. I started just walking dogs, and then progressed to watching family/friends dogs while they were on weekend trips/ vacations once I was able to drive. On top of watching other peoples animals, I’ve always had animals of my own, so I’ve been around Dogs/Cats my whole life. I am due in November, and I won’t be working once I have my baby. My schedule is completely open and my Dog is looking for a friend to have a sleepover 🩵 I have 3 acres and lots of room for dogs to run around and play! My dog gets along with any kind of dog, so your fur baby will have a friend the whole time! If you would like your dog crated, I can do that as well.

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.
