“I highly recommend Sonya and her family for pet sitting! I recently left my dog, Macario, with them while I was away camping for several days, and they took excellent care of him. It was clear from the updates and photos that he was comfortable, well-loved, and treated like part of the family. When I picked him up, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly had a great stay. They were easy to communicate with, responsive, and genuinely cared about making sure both Macario and I felt comfortable throughout the experience. As a dog mom, having peace of mind while you're away is priceless, and that's exactly what they provided. I'll definitely be using them again in the future. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of Macario!”
“Amelia was great! My dog was totally comfortable at her home. She sent pictures each day and kept us posted on how he was doing. She also took him on big walks through the parks. Would definitely recommend and will use again!”
“Reema was a wonderful host! She took great care of our dog and made us feel completely comfortable while we were away. She is very kind, friendly, and has a lovely backyard where our dog had a great time playing with her dog. We were able to enjoy our trip knowing our dog was in good hands. I highly recommend Reema and would be happy to leave our dog with her again in the future. Thank you so much! 😊🐾💕”
“We had the most wonderful experience with Judith!! She took great care of Ogie and was a great communicator on how he was doing and what he was up to! Have already booked another stay!”
“We could not have been luckier or more pleased with Lorena as our very first Rover experience! She welcomed our “shih-poo with issues” with absolute grace and won him over like few others ever have. She handled meds and (sometimes difficult) walks, plus playtime, with ease, and her updates and photos kept us well informed during our trip. Highly recommend and will definitely be requesting her services again!”
“Adela was awesome! She took great care of my dog Ellie for a few days. She was extremely welcoming and answered any questions I had prior to Ellie’s stay.Her communication skills were on point as well. She put my mind at ease each day by sending updates and lots of pictures :) I think it’s safe to say that my dog really enjoyed her stay. We will def book again with her in the future.”
“Madeline took wonderful care of our boy! She was very professional and friendly, and we highly recommend her. Especially if you have a smaller dog than can be anxious in a new/strange environment. Hopefully she's not booked the next time we need a dog sitter!”
“I needed a last minute cat sitter, and Michael was quick to respond and made the boarding process as smooth as possible. My cat was very comfortable with the place and treated it like her own.”
About: I have always loved dogs, and I had a lot of experience helping with dogs that belonged to my other family members or friends growing up. I have added dogs to the family as an adult and enjoy taking them on walks, playing with them, and caring for them. I have a bichon-freise and shitzu (teddybear mix) dog as part of our family currently. I have two daughters who adore dogs. I am just now beginning this journey on Rover though I have lots of experience working with dogs and caring for others' pups. I am currently working part time from home, so I have time to play and care for your pup. I can take your dog out first thing in the morning, a couple of times during the day, and before bedtime. I walk my own dog three to four times daily and sometimes take him to one of the two fenced in pet parks in my apartment building. Your dog can join us for whatever seems appropriate to you.
“Mariah has an obvious presence with dogs and is a true professional. Very responsive and nice photos provide clear piece of mind that our dog was in more than capable hands. Thanks Mariah!”
“Harley was awesome with my Polly Pocket! I knew my recently adopted foster-fail dog would be great in Harley's hands while I traveled out of state for 5 days. Harley kept Polly busy with treat puzzles, training games, walks, and chasing bunnies in the backyard. I loved the pictures they sent and the thorough and honest updates about how Ms. Pocket was doing. And the cherry on top: I could immediately see some of the training Harley implemented with Polly, which was very appreciated as we settled back in to the daily grind back in St. Louis after the trip. Would absolutely book again with Harley in a heartbeat!”
“I can't say enough about how amazing Lauren was! From the moment I dropped off my pup, I knew he was in great hands. Not only did she provide lots of love and attention, but she also kept me updated with an adorable photo. The one picture she sent of my dog curled up and relaxed really put my mind at ease. I could tell felt completely comfortable. Highly recommend for anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and attentive to their furry friend! Thank you, Lauren, for taking such great care of my dog!”
“My pups had a great time with Jennifer. Her backyard is fenced but beware it is not very tall. My weim would have easily jumped it but Jennifer found a way to tether him and still play with the other dogs!”
“Ebony was a great fit for Foxii. She sent pictures several times and Foxii seemed very happy an I was able to enjoy my trip without being worried if she was ok. I will not hesitate to leave Foxii in her care again.”
“Ruthie was awesome. My dog was only with Ruthie for 2 nights, but I got updates and when I got home, my pooch slept for a whole day. She was exhausted from the weekend. I would recommend Ruthie.”
About: Say goodbye to worries when leaving your pet behind. Picture your fur baby enjoying daily playtime, meals, cozy naps, and daily walks around the neighborhood from a playful dog lover, sitter, and friend. 🐶❤️ I currently work from home on a hybrid so I’ll have plenty of flexibility to play with your fur babies! I am also available for doggy daycare daily! I have a small dog park in my apartment which provides a fun space to meet and play with other doggies! I also have experience potty training pups!

Alyse was amazing! Our pups came to her at the very last minute due to an issue with another sitter. She was very quick to respond and was very accommodating taking our booking at the last minute! She did a great job with our girls! They were very well taken care of, we received lots of photos and we received very meaningful updates so we knew exactly how our girls were doing! They were exhaused & stressed when they got there and you took them in, gave them a comfortable place to rest & relax, took the stress away from them & took great care of them! Thank you so much for stepping in and making what was a very bad situation with our other sitter to turning it around ensuring our girls were cared for and taken care of all while keeping us updated along the way during their time with you! Highly reccommend booking with Alyse for your pups!
Ashlie was awesome and 10,000% would take the pups back to her family to watch my babies! House was comfy and cozy feeling, pups loved kiddos around, got updates and quick responses. Biggest thing when we did the meet and greet I felt comfortable immediately with her as she was definitely a dog person and felt that trust right away with her! Thanks again gal and looking forward to any future trips to bring them to you!
Hayley and her family did an amazing job taking care of our Freckle! We are so grateful - it was a last minute booking and we couldn’t say enough positive things about Freckle’s time there. It was very clear she got some good play time in and enjoyed her stay. We felt very safe leaving her in Hayley’s hands. She found a great playmate in Dante too! Thanks guys!
Danielle did a great job taking care of our dog. At the meet and greet Danielle asked great questions and helped us immediately feel as ease. Danielle provided frequent updates and was very responsive. She kept my dog busy and I could tell my dog was enjoying her stay. I would highly recommend Danielle to others looking for a sitter.

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Clayton is $39 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $31 and $52 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
There are 1,117 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Clayton. About 92% of Clayton sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. 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.
