“Katie is absolutely wonderful. She would send me updates and pictures and keep me posted how my fur baby was doing. We already have our next stay booked..”
“I recently had the pleasure of entrusting my beloved Shih Tzu, Miki, to the exceptional care of Mandi. From start to finish, Mandi's genuine love for animals made me feel immediately at ease. Mandi's dedication to providing the best possible care for pets is truly commendable. I was particularly impressed by the ramp she built, allowing dogs to climb into her bed. This thoughtful addition showcases her commitment to accommodating furry friends and ensuring their utmost comfort. Mandi also introduced Miki to her own adorable dog, Odie. The chemistry between them was incredible! Watching Miki and Odie play and bond was so adorable. Mandi's took the time to understand Miki's unique needs, ensuring that she received personalized care and attention. I felt at ease knowing that Mandi was looking after Miki, and it allowed me to fully enjoy my time away. I am thrilled to have found such an exceptional pet sitter, and I can confidently say that I will be using Mandi's services again in the future. Her passion for animals shines through in everything she does, and it is evident that she treats each pet as if they were her own. If you're in need of a pet sitter who goes above and beyond, I wholeheartedly recommend Mandi. She is a true gem, and I am grateful for the peace of mind she provided during my absence. Thank you, Mandi, for your outstanding care and dedication to Miki. You have earned my highest recommendation, and I wish you continued success in your pet-sitting endeavors.”
“Highly recommend! Our shih tzu is adopted from a puppy mill and is a little quirky. He loved Mary and we could tell she took the time to get to know him and make him comfortable! Charlie had a great vacation at Mary’s!”
“Tre’Ana was an excellent host and worked with me on times and dates. Would recommend her to anyone!! My Hazel was definitely taken care of and so happy when I picked her up.”
“This lovely young couple treated my Sadie as if she were their own. While I was away on my trip,I was contacted every day with a picture and a report. Sadie is 12 years old and it’s hard to leave her but I would leave her with this couple again! Thank you, Morgan and Eric appreciate it!”
“SO HAPPY we found Karen to take care of our dog while we were away! She is wonderful and took excellent care of Peanut! During our trip, we received texts with photos and nice comments. We really hope that Karen will be available next time we are away, because we will definitely be repeat customers!”
About: I have always had a dog and cat in my life (and still do!). I have been using Rover for two years and I don't seem to want to stop anytime soon. I have trained two golden retrievers and walked a lot of puppies, senior dogs and many ages in-between. One of my own dogs was awarded canine good citizenship before my children were born. I love being around animals and I have a caring nature. Now that my kids are getting older, it fits my need to get exercise and bring some joy into my life. I would love to give your pet some snuggles, snacks and I am always mindful to send lots of photos to ensure you can relax while you are away. I know that is what I would want as a pet owner. Some people think you have to either be a "dog person" or a "cat person". Not me! They both have a place in my heart for very different reasons. Cats take some time, but I love their comforting purr, the playfulness of spunky kittens or just petting their soft fur. Some owners simply just someone they can trust for a check-in. I am happy to provide the details needed so you can be OK while you are away. I am typically available in the afternoons as long as I don’t have a meeting scheduled (I work from home) and most evenings are available. Weekends are the best time to book care if you will be out for soccer games, dinner or long evening plans. I have kids as well and I have used Rover for 6+ years on my own pets. I am excited to return the favor to you now that my kids are older. I have used crates with my own pets during training and I will follow whatever safety instructions are needed. I understand all collars, how to avoid run ins with feisty dogs and other concerns you may have. I know how to troubleshoot dogs that like to find hiding spots or have the ability to slip out of the door. I am 40+ and I am raising tweens at this point, so I have a little wisdom under me that other walkers may not have at this point. I am also trustworthy. I have a great full-time job coupled with flexibility. I just want to combine my love of pets with a little extra income.
“Lucy was great. Lucy stayed in contact with me everyday with text, pictures, and videos. Loki had never been left with anyone in his life and he had some anxiety being left. Lucy was able to deal with this and made Loki feel comfortable. Thank you again Lucy.”
“Annie was great with our two dogs when we went out of town for the weekend! We received a lot of photos of them, and they seemed like they had a great time. We will use her again!”
“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 do not have enough words to say how incredible Jessica was with my anxious corgi, Nugget! She was so attentive to his command words, what makes him nervous/comfortable and she even thought of things I hadn’t considered to make him feel comfortable there. She most definitely treated him like her own and he absolutely adores her! (And he is not fond of many people) she was wonderful about sending updates and keeping us connected while we were away. My sweet little boy absolutely loves her and we will be coming back soon!”
“Leah was great! She took my dog in last minute and took amazing care of him! She made sure she knew exactly how to care for him and was very accommodating on caring for him a little longer than anticipated due to my traveling delays!”
“It’s always nerve-wracking when I have to find someone new to watch Doc. Fortunately, I found Dawn—she took great care of him! She’s warm and friendly, and judging by the pictures she sent, Doc had a great time and was well taken care of. I will definitely be a repeat customer!”
“Shelly was amazing with Jax! We got lots of pictures and videos of a boy who was having a blast at her house. What a great backyard space for them to play. She was thorough at explaining everything and is so professional. Thank you Shelly for taking care of our boy ❤️”

Isa is great!! So friendly, and attentive and loving with my dog. I know Lily was well-taken care of and had a good time. I could tell immediately when I picked up my dog that she had bonded with Isa and her friend. Plus she got Lily to eat while I was gone, so that's an accomplishment! I will definitely want to use Isa again for future boarding.
Boarded our pug at Catherine's for a one night stay and will definitely be reaching out to her again the next time we need a sitter. As recent transplants to the area, we've had much trouble finding a responsive sitter so we greatly appreciated her timely responses and flexibility with our schedule. Her dog, Bodie, is the sweetest and we were so happy to hear that he and our little old guy got along well. Thank you again for having Benny over, Catherine!
I was so nervous to leave my dog for the first time, but as soon as I got pictures from Leslie on that first day of my trip, I was at ease. Leslie communicated everyday and was also incredibly flexible, extending my dog's stay due to a late flight. I would definitely have my dog stay with Leslie again.
Gabrielle accepted my late request and went above and beyond to care for my little guy. My cat seemed very comfortable and happy in her space and she was very attentive to him and his needs. She watched him for me when he needed medicine administered twice daily and extra special attention which he got. I’m so grateful to have found her on Rover! Will definitely reach out to her again if I need a sitter.
It's very easy to work with Shaina ... we did a quick meet-n-greet before our booking to see that our dogs got along together (they did!) and then left our Jackson for a week-long stay. Jackson was clearly well cared for and had lots of playtime and regular walks. We got regular updates with photos as promised. I'm sure he was sad to leave ... we will book with her again in the future.
Julia was a great pick to watch our girl! We have had a few questionable interviews but Julia made us feel at ease leaving our dog with her. She gave me daily updates which I appreciated. Pancake looked very happy and relaxed in all the photos she sent. Very easy to work with and even was understanding when our travels had an unexpected delay. I will definitely book with her 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!

There are 1,110 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.
