“Paula is truly the best! She cared for my senior pup as if she was her own and always went above and beyond. I never had to worry, Bella was always in great hands. I’m so thankful I found Paula during my time in St. Louis. We’ll miss her so much!!”

“Thank you for taking good care of Zoey while we were out of the country! The communication and pictures were so appreciated to see and a great comfort to know she was doing fine! Sharon”


“Karen has a terrific personality and is great with pups! She sent lots of photos and updates during the week she watched our dog and she even delivered an item that we left behind to our home. She’s fantastic. Highly recommended!”

“Marie was a life saver to agree to take our aging pug for his first stay with only 24 hours notice. She was kind, flexible, accommodating and understanding. She has young kids who welcomed Napoleon at the car door and were so excited to have a "pudgy puggie" to play with. He LOVED the attention and care. Upon pick up he was packed and ready to go -- super efficient sendoff. It made me feel so much better to leave my much loved dog in their care. I rebooked Marie for another stay as soon as I got home. A++.”
“Cait did a great job! She stayed in touch and went above and beyond to make my dog, who struggles being away, completely comfortable in a way other sitters haven't been able to. We will definitely be using her services again!”

“Sarah opened her home to my girls and made them comfortable. They usually go to their granny's but all were going on this trip, so it was a very big deal for them to stay elsewhere. They played, walked, rested, and probably were questioning coming home, they were given so much attention. Sarah shared photos and even with a snowstorm ensured they were safe and had fun. I was very pleased. We will call upon sarah again!”

“Reba was awesome. Our first meet up with her and Lyle went great, she made our dog instantly feel like he was at home. She sent many photo update while dog sitting for me. She had a huge backyard for my puppy to run around in and get some play time. He came home very tired. This will be his home away from home. She will be my number goto sitter for my pet.”
“Nicole and Tim were absolutely great! Good communicators and sent photos and updates throughout our dogs stay. She can be a little particular but settled in immediately and it felt like she got her own vacation while we were on ours. Will definitely book them again!”

“I'm very grateful Lucy was available this weekend. Maggie seemed to have had a great time and was very happy when she got home. Lucy's pick-up and drop-off was very punctual and she was available for an early drop-off when I returned home early in the day. Layla, Lucy's dog, seems to be a great playmate for Maggie. Got pictures of them playing and resting together every day. Will book again!”

“Time after time, Raina always goes above and beyond to make Nash feel comfortable and welcomed. She also is AMAZING at communicating and sending pictures/videos. She will always be our go-to.”

“Julia was the absolute best for my dog. Her laid back, calm, and kind personality was a huge hit with my older pup. Julia sent updates and pictures which put my mind at ease. I will definitely use her again. It was a wonderful experience.”

“I can’t thank Caitlin and Adam enough for how they took care of our 9 month puppy for two weeks!! I was anxious to be gone that long from him, but their set up was perfect and Caitlin’s communication was so great. We were able to relax and fully enjoy our trip knowing our pup was in capable and caring hands. Thank you SO much!!”

“Tilly was so loved and cared for, I wasn't sure she'd want to come back home with me! I was so appreciative of the communication with updated photos and videos; I'm also grated for helps with behavior modifications since my dog is a foster and still learning the ropes. Highly recommended!”

“Jenna is amazing, She sent me pictures and updates on my baby.So I would always know that he was in good hands and when I picked him up.I don't think he wanted to come home.He wanted to stay!! Lol. We'll definitely rebook with her!”

“Lorena provided the best of care to our pup. She made sure our dog had daily exercise through walks and play. Updates were regularly given through messages and photos. Most importantly Lorena is such a kind woman who clearly made our dog feel comfortable and loved during our absence. We will certainly rely on her again for future sittings and highly recommend her to others!”

“thie first time I have ever left my dog with a stranger so I was a bit nervous. however I was very pleased with Sophies care by Mandy. she sent pictures and videos daily and I appreciated that because it put me at ease. I think she got very good care and I will definitely want to use her services again. She is a very good sitter. I am happy with Rover because now I feel like my dog will be well taken care of using your service.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Clayton
Sarah was amazing with Clare! She sent us frequent updates and was quick to respond to questions. When we had a change in our schedule and needed to add an extra day of boarding, Sarah was extemely understanding and helpful. We highly recommend her and will definitely book with her again in the future!

Katherine was very responsive and able to accommodate my cat Billa even with changes in the times. She sent videos and pictures to show my pet's comfort and provided me with reassurance and trust. I will definitely use her for future boarding. Billa adjusted well and loved the cat suite.

I was happy to find someone who would only take one dog at a time and also works remotely! That is his norm and he can get stressed when he's with too many new dogs and not enough time to chill. I felt like he got great care with Julia and I'm grateful to have found her through Rover! She sent us updates which my whole family loved to hear and see. We will definitely book with her again.

Jordan took fantastic care of my dog Bently! He was very clearly cared for and felt comfortable in her home. The photos of him having fun or having a nap were so great to see and it was very clear that he was happy and safe. I would absolutely trust Jordan with him again!

Annie was amazing with my two dogs! She provided frequent updates and lots of pictures of my dogs while I was gone. I felt really comfortable leaving them with her. It’s clear from the moment you see Annie with your dogs that she is a natural dog person and the dogs just love her. I’d recommend Annie to any dog parents!

Our dogs were happy and healthy when we picked them up after a 10-day stay. Catherine provided updates and pics throughout their stay. Her dog Bodie is great with other dogs, (big and small; we have a pug and a large yellow lab and he was safe and respectful with both of them. Catherine provided a meet and greet for us and the dogs prior to their stay on neutral territory at a nearby park. Her dog, Bodie, is excellently trained. Catherine has a calm assertive energy with the dogs which sets the tone for harmony in the ‘pack.’ We are so grateful for her care and expertise and will definitely return for another stay.

We used Hailie for the first time that we spent a night away from our puppy and highly recommend her to anyone else looking! She took the time to get to know us ahead of time and tailored his stay based on his personality. She was very attentive to him and ensured that he was comfortable in her home. He’s still under a year old, so he’s got plenty of energy to spare. Hailie kept him busy with playtime and sent us lots of pictures and videos to keep us updated. We look forward to using her again in the near future!

Lesley was a true blessing when we were frantically looking for a sitter last minute. It was our time using Rover and first time using a non-family member to watch Asher so we were very anxious! From meet-and-greet and communication while Asher was with her, to his tail waging goodbye at pickup, we’re grateful to Lesley (and her pups) for welcoming him.

Stella had an amazing time with Ashlie and Phillip! They are very comfortable with large dogs and made me feel so at ease leaving my pet in their care. Their home is perfect with a fenced in backyard and the entire family is used to having dogs around. I received picture/updates and had a wonderful experience! I will definitely be using Ashlie and Phillip in the future!

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Clayton on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

There are 1,131 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Clayton. About 93% 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.

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 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.
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.
