“…simply amazing!!! Taylor thank you for providing our fur baby with the love and care he needed during our vacation. Our fur baby enjoyed you, he was happy in the photos and videos. We thank you and will gladly utilize your services again!”
“She's an awesome sitter for my 3 dogs, she has been coming here on time and done her duty by letting my dogs in the backyard for 3 days straight definitely will hire her again in the future. Very reliable.”
“Ruth was very professional and did the job well. She fed my pet, cleaned out the litter and also generously offered to water the plants while she was there. Highly recommend and will book again.”
About: I’ve worked at a pet store for over 2 years, and I’ve been a dog bather for about half a year. I’ve always had pets my whole life but i’ve learned so much about our fur babies in the past few years. It’s something that I can do on weekends nights, and on weekends depending on school and my work schedule. Im pretty open though on most nights! I have a fenced yard with a big german sheppard, and two black cats that roam the house. I am always with my animals to keep them company and keep up there needs.
“We could not be happier with the care our dog received. Excellent communication and easy breezy. One of our dogs has never eaten while out of town and he eats with Angela. That says everything you need to know!”
“Holli did a great job of caring for our pets and home while we were gone. If she had a question she didn’t hesitate to ask for clarification. We will definitely be requesting her to watch our pets in the future!”
“Julie was great watching our cats while we were on vacation. She was so attentive and made sure the cats were well taken care of and that one of our cats got his medicine daily. The report cards each visit were awesome, hearing how they were doing and the pictures made it so we didn't have to worry about them at all. This has been the best experience ever with a pet sitter.”
“Reliable, dependable, and thoughtful. She never missed a day and always texted when she was with my babes. She always sent photos of the dogs afte the walk (I didn't even request any of this she's just that good). But it put my mind at ease knowing how well they were cared for.”
About: I have taken care of pets since I was 8 for neighbors families and friends. I do walks, baths and general care for dogs and other pets. I’m currently working part-time PM shifts so I have full day availability to care for your pets! I’m a recent grad looking for some help making some extra cash. I am very adaptable to each pets needs and have dealt with various different types of animals. I am very respectful and neat when entering other people’s homes
“Haley was great and my cat absolutely loved her! He was completely comfortable with her and we will be using Haley again for sure. Thank you so much for taking such great care of Sprinkles!”
“Hannah has been a terrific sitter for our new pup. Prompt and informative communication, always leaves multiple photos and comments, highly reliable, and she’s clearly knowledgeable about dogs, kindly offering tips and suggestions when asked.”
“Donovan was great about showing up twice a day, to check in on our dog. He kept us updated on the dog every time he stopped by even with some inclement weather in the area. Donovan also was very responsive to any questions we had. The hardest part of his job and the one we were most worried about was out cat that likes to sneak outside on people, but Donovan had no issues with her at all. We will definitely be using his service again for our next day trip or long vacation!”
“We went out of the country for an extended weekend and Nadia took care of our older dog. She has become more high maintenance as she has gotten older and Nadia took care of everything that our little Allie threw at her! I’d definitely hire her again.”
“Rayna and Zach are absolutely terrific with my dogs. I was very nervous about introducing my 13 year old dog and new 3 month old puppy to strangers but they warmed up to them right away. Not only did they take care of their basic needs (food, water, bathroom), but they also took the time to teach my new puppy some essential tricks like not biting when he plays, being calm when entering the crate, etc. I come home every day with two tired, well behaved, and mess free pups. They have gone above and beyond my expectations and I am so lucky to have them taking care of my pups! I would recommend Rayna and Zach to anyone and everyone!!”
“Lindsay has been a huge help with coming over and spending time with my 2 dogs while im at work. She stops by and lets them out to potty and spends some time with them multiple times a week. It makes me feel good knowing I can trust her, that she enjoys being with them and that shes very experienced in dealing with different breeds and personalities of dogs!”

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Alizee! She took such amazing care of our dogs and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such caring and capable hands. She was attentive, reliable, and clearly treated them like they were her own. She also kept an eye on our cat, which we truly appreciated. On top of that, she sent pictures and updates after every visit, which made us feel even more comfortable while we were away. It’s not always easy to find someone you can fully trust with your pets, but she exceeded our expectations in every way. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and compassionate pet sitter!
Ardyth is exactly the person you’d want to care for your pets while away! She was extremely patient and caring with my anxiety driven pup. When our routine didn’t work, she rerouted and did her very best to accommodate our Koda and with such love! Ardyth went above and beyond with giving us thorough updates of her drop-ins along with several photos. Would highly recommend her!!
Cristin was amazing with our two dogs. One of our dogs doesn't socialize well with new people but Cristin was able to get her to warm up to her and went above and beyond taking care of our dogs while we were gone. Even willing to spend extra time with them during a severe storm while we were gone. Would definitely recommend her care. Thank you, Cristin!
Ruth is hands down my favorite dog sitter ever. Even my skeptical dog warms up to her and jumps on her lap for love. She sends me pics while I am away on business trips and lets me know my dogs are safe and loved. Every time I come home I can tell they are healthy and have been well taken care of . I will always call on Ruth for my doggo needs! She is a true animal lover and will always take the best care of your pets
Dawn was amazing as a sitter for my pups! She is incredibly professional, responsive and loving with my dogs. I will definitely be using her again in the future. My dogs love her and her excellent care for my babies allowed me to really unplug from any worry about being away from them. Thanks Dawn!!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Cottleville stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Cottleville choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .
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 dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Cottleville with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
