“Mikayla was fantastic and would recommend to anyone! She was very communicative, you could tell she cared about the animals and did everything she could to help out. Thank you for everything and will be using her again when I need someone to help out!”

“I booked Hope to care after my two cats, while I took a 5 day trip. She came over for a meet and greet a few days before I left and the cats were receptive to her very calm demeanor. That's a big plus when you introduce a new person to your pets. I have a cat with diabetes and needs insulin shots, twice a day. He can be uncooperative with others giving the shot, but she was successful on each occasion. I received timely updates after each of her visits and positive messages, which give assurance that all was ok back home. I was extremely happy with her care and will definitely hire her again.”

“Sophia was so great with Senna! Super responsive to a last minute request. Came home to a happy puppy each day! Had absolutely no issues, but was confident she would be able to handle anything and/or reach out to me. Also an excellent photographer!”


“Natalee did a fantastic job with our nervous cat. Some pets take patience and understanding and she has both in spades. She provided great feedback and is who I will contact any time I need a pet sitter.”

“Abby was a great sitter who took excellent care of my pet for my time away. She was communicative and eager to hear how best to care for my cat. I can't wait to book her services again!”

“Emily was easy to get ahold of and took SUCH good care of my cat. I always get nervous leaving him, but Emily asked me things like where I keep his carrier, who his vet is, etc during our initial visit, which made me know he’d be in good hands. Thank you, thank you!”

“Jacqueline was great with Momo! She was quick to respond to my messages over the holidays and attentive when following Momo’s specific meal routine.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs all of my life. I am the mom of a rescued senior dog with a disability (she’s a tri-pawd) so I am ready for any challenge that your dog may have! I’m currently in school so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your pup! I have a car and live centrally in the city! Safety is my number one priority when caring for your dog. I am detail-oriented and attune to each dog’s needs and wants. You need not worry when your dog is with me!
About: I have a 5 year old 100lb staffordshire terrier named Kaido that I raised and trained since he was 6 weeks old. I crate trained, house trained, recall trained, socialized, and lead trained him myself. I have also Kaido to help work with other dogs that are not well socialized or have anxiety issues. I am currently working two part time jobs as a research coordinator so I am typically able to be flexible with whatever schedule is requested. While my apartment does not have a fenced yard, I do have a large dog crate if needed and have knowledge of many dog parks and trails in the St Louis area.
“Alena is so good with my babies while I am gone! She keeps me updated on everything I need to know and makes sure to send me lots of pictures. I will be using her for all future trips if she is available!”

“TzuYu was a wonderful cat sitter; she did everything I asked of her, played with my cat, and sent lots of pictures. I will be asking her to take care of my cat for my next trip too”

“Stephen is a gem! He is thorough, flexible and reliable, and I could tell my cat loved his visits. It was such a relief to know he was looking after her and we will definitely be calling upon him again!”

“Ross did a great job with our two cats. He provided exactly the care we requested and spent time playing with our young cat to help her get out that pent up energy! He also provided superior communication. We greatly appreciated his sitting services”

“Hayley went above and beyond! There were some unexpected fireworks during her drop-in visit, and she was so great communicating with us and making our dog Ruby feel comfortable and safe.”


“Emma was great with my dog! She was on time and reliable. She followed instructions and I could tell by the pictures she took Theo had a good time❤️ would definitely recommend her !!”

About: I volunteer at the APA animal shelter where I walk and play with all types of dogs. I have also taken care of a wide variety of animals including lizards, fish, kittens (2 weeks old), puppies, and turtles! I’m currently working part-time at a restaurant so I have plenty of time to spend time with your animals and make sure they are well taken care of! I give all pets love and affection with different pets needing different things! For dogs I love to take them for walks and give them lots of belly scratches, and for cats I love to play with them and if they like, pet them!
Cheltenham pet parents share their Rover experiences
Emily is hands down the absolute best! I was stranded out of town for three extra days due to many, many flight cancellations. Every time I messaged her to ask if she could care for Blake another day she happily agreed! Blake (my senior dog) loves when she’s there and I love it too because I don’t have to worry one bit knowing Blake is safe and happy. I cannot thank her enough for what she does.

TzuYu was an amazing sitter! She kept me updated with daily pictures and some videos, cleaned his water fountain and changed filters, emptied and filled his litter, left treats around for enrichment, just went above and beyond for my little guy! He's shy but he warmed up to her, which shows just how great she is. Will definitely be booking her again in the future!! 🥰

I was very happy with the care that Hope provided for my two pups while I was away. With every visit Hope provided notes and photos, and I could see that the pups were doing great in my absence. I came home to two happy, relaxed dogs who had been well cared for.

Solange took very good care of my fur baby, Queenie. She took photos everyday and she called me twice, so I could talk to Queenie. Solange was punctual and professional when I met with her and during drop in visits. Queenie loves her too. ❤️ I would strongly recommend Solange as a pet sitter, and I will be using her pet services in the future.
