“Christine so reliable, trustworthy and easy to work with when you need an extra hand. She loves animals, and might even sneak in some kitty pets if they are allowed.”

“Cristin was so great!! Very communicative, took pictures with every visit/provided detailed updates, and did a wonderful job taking care of our cat while we were away. Would definitely rebook with her in the future ☺️”

About: I have over five years of experience caring for and sitting dogs, along with hands-on experience raising my own puppy. I’m comfortable working with dogs of all ages and sizes, including high-energy pups who need plenty of playtime and structure. I’m familiar with crate routines, potty training, and reinforcing good behavior, and I always follow each dog’s unique schedule and needs. I’m also able to manage specific feeding routines, medications, and any special care instructions to ensure every dog feels safe, happy, and well cared for. I work full-time on weekdays, but I’m fully available for pet care after 5 PM. This allows me to provide evening walks, drop-ins, or overnight care during the week. I’m also completely free on weekends, giving me plenty of time to focus on your dog with lots of attention, playtime, and consistent care. Whether you need weeknight help or full-day weekend support, I’m happy to accommodate your schedule. Your pup’s safety comes first! I live in a dog-friendly apartment with a fully fenced dog park for safe play and a quiet, friendly neighborhood perfect for long walks. I make sure every dog feels happy, secure, and loved while in my care.
“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.”
About: I grew up in the country and have spent my whole life around animals—dogs, cats, and even horses. I currently share my home with a young Australian Retriever who keeps me active and entertained. I also recently cared for my senior dog through several years of diabetes that required twice-daily insulin, so I’m very comfortable with medication routines and supporting pets with special needs. I work part-time from home, which gives me plenty of flexibility for walks and drop-ins. I’m available on weekdays and most weekends, so it’s easy for me to fit consistent, reliable care into my schedule. My priority is making pets feel safe and comfortable. In a client’s home, I follow your routines closely - feeding, walks, and medications are all done exactly the way your pet is used to. I keep doors secured, double-check leashes and harnesses before every walk, and pay close attention to each pet’s body language so they never feel stressed or rushed. My goal is to create a calm, predictable environment so your pet feels secure and cared for while you’re away.

About: I have taken care of animals since I was a little kid. I have taken my passion for taking care of animals and got a job working at Kennelwood Boarding. There, I was able to care for the dogs and cats which included play time, cleaning, potty breaks, meals and meds, pictures, and walks. I also foster puppies over the summers so I am used to puppies as well as older dogs because I have my own senior pup at home. I am comfortable with strong pullers and dogs who tend to be more aggressive. Overall I love all animals and have spent lots of time taking care of them and I would love to do the same for yours. I am currently working a part time job 3 days a week so I will have plenty of time for your pups! I can do boarding any day of the week after 3. I care for pets in my clients home depending on their needs. On a basis I give them attention and look after them to insure safety. I also make sure they exercise and are fed or administered anything they need. I would make sure they feel loved!
“We love having Mallory take care of our 2 cats. She’s accepted our reservation several times. She makes us feel so comfortable leaving them at home because she is so caring, and goes above and beyond just feeding them. We will definately continue to keep Mallory as our first choice.”


About: I’ve had dogs since I was born. Taking care of them has been one of the greatest privileges I’ve had. I am always helping out and trying to train them! I also love taking care of my friend's pets as well. My dog is currently 11, so I’m comfortable with senior dogs as well. I have a part time job, so I have a lot of free time! I usually have mornings, afternoons, and evenings where I can work around my schedule. I have a very safe environment for my pets at home. I am able to follow any instructions or special accommodations your pets may need! I am willing to walk, play, feed, and give your pets all the love and care they want and need!

“Melissa watched my 3 cats for me. She was fantastic! I got tons of pics and an update every day. When one of my cats had a gooey eye - she immediately called me to see what I wanted to do. She was very concerned and caring about the kitty and wanted to make sure she was ok and was willing to take her to the vet. (the cat is fine btw - she didn’t need to go to vet). It’s that kind of commitment and caring that makes Melissa a great sitter! I would definitely use her again.”
About: I’ve taken care of mostly dogs since I was a kid. I grew up raising dogs and showing dogs. We raised several breeds growing up. I have cared for puppies as well as adult dogs. I do teach full time, but am available after 4pm most days. My day starts at 7:10 so I could do a very early drop in or walk if needed. My weekends are very flexible and can be reliant on client needs. I am very conscientious of owner and pet needs. I will take of your pet like it is my own baby and follow care directions exactly.
“Jaclyn is definitely good with pets and I would highly recommend her services. She instantly bonded with my cat and spend time with him while I was away. She also brought some toys which my kitty enjoyed (and still does). Jaclyn also visited before I left on my trip show I could show her around. She also provided very extensive reports and photos of her visits.”

About: Hi! I’m Alizée, a stay-at-home mom in St. Peters offering loving, personalized in-home dog care in a calm and safe family setting. As a stay-at-home mom, I’m home most of the day, which means your dog will receive plenty of attention, companionship, supervised playtime, and regular potty breaks—no long hours alone. At the very maximum and on special occasions, I may be gone a maximum of 2h a day. I share my home with two sweet senior female Chihuahuas, so caring for dogs is already part of my daily life. Their gentle presence helps create a calm, dog-friendly environment, and I’m very attentive to comfort, routines, and each dog’s individual needs. I also bring a healthcare background to my pet care: I worked for 6 years as a nursing assistant and phlebotomist, which means I’m comfortable and experienced with special care needs, including oral medications, injections/shots, and close monitoring for senior or medically sensitive pets. What your dog will enjoy here: 🐾 A safe fenced yard for outdoor play and potty breaks - no chemicals are used in our yard and we remove dog's waste every other day. 🌳 Daily walks and outings near our local park 🏡 A cozy home environment—never a kennel 📸 Daily photo and video updates ❤️ Plenty of affection, supervision, and personalized care I intentionally keep the number of dogs I host to one at the time (or multiple from the same family) so every guest gets the attention they deserve and feels safe and comfortable. I’m happy to care for small to medium dogs, including puppies who aren't fully potty trained yet, adults, and seniors, and I always recommend a meet-and-greet before the first stay to make sure it’s the right fit for everyone. Make sure your puppy is comfortable with other small dogs, and children. I’d love to welcome your pup into our home! Feel free to ask me any questions, I love what I do and I want my clients to know their puppy will be safe and properly cared for at my house. I am a stay at home mom, so I am available all day to care for your fur baby. Rarely away more than 2h at the time, your pup will have all the attention and playtime he needs. Our family wakes up early the morning, before 6.30am so if your puppy sleeps in a kennel, he will be out of it at sunrise. If the weather permits, we go for daily walks at the park and/or in the neighborhood. I adapt my days to your animal. So if your puppy needs more or less walk, more or less yard play, or any specific care, this is not a problem. My clients usually come with their feeding instructions and a feeding schedule for their puppy, and I will be applying all the rules they see fit for their animal. I like to keep your animal on the same routine as at your house to allow less stress on them. I have a fenced yard, two elderly female chihuahuas and a child at home. Dogs are never left unattended in the yard, I am always with them. I can easily crate your puppy if needed and I am familiar with the app FI that some of my clients already use. As a healthcare professional for several years, I am comfortable caring for older or sick animals. I provide daily pictures and videos to ease your stress while you are away. We do not use any chemicals in our yard and a very limited amount inside the house. Most of our space is cleaned using steam water. We also allow our own pets on the furnitures and your pup will receive the same privilege if this is in accordance with your own rules. We practice separate feeding time/station and separate sleeping area from our own dogs. Our house is equipped with cameras, inside and outside, allowing me to always have an eye on our animal if needed. During walks I do not allow contact with other dogs, and we stay on paved trails (no wooden areas or swamps) or neighborhood sidewalks. Unless it is an emergency, I do not take the liberty to transport my client's dog in the car. *exception will be made if you ask me to do so*
“Nat was wonderful!! We decided to try rover instead of boarding (which we usually do) for weekend trips, and I don't think we will look back! Nat let us know what to expect with check ins, the app/communication and everything went so smoothly. We also loved the bonus pics and notes! Next time we are headed out of town, we know who to book with 😊”

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I started driving and love to walk and interact with them. I care for the pets like they would be my own. I am very friendly and open to any type of pet and how they interact with people and adjust to their style. I’m currently in college and play soccer full time. I’m home for the summer and I can sit or walk pets at various times throughout the week. I do have a somewhat flexible schedule with work and can work around and care for any pets at different times of the week. I will keep the house clean and help pick up or do any tasks needed while I care for your pet. I also make sure that I am safely caring and looking out for the pets on walks as well to ensure the best care needed.
About: What sets me apart is my experience with both ends of the dog spectrum: puppies and seniors. I can handle puppy training basics like potty schedules, crate routines, and leash manners, as well as senior care including medication administration and mobility support. You'll get honest daily updates with photos. No fluff, just reliable care. I’m current a college student home for the summer and taking online classes to fill up my time but my schedule is very flexible for your needs. I would say I can promise you that your pets are in great hands since I have always been so attentive with pet care while living with so many animals in my life.

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!!

Elizabeth did a fantastic job with Calvin, our soon to be 17 year old cat. She followed all instructions to the letter and kept Cal very happy, which when are away is not an easy job. He is a wonderful cat and we could tell from the pictures Elizabeth sent us during her visits that he was happy with her and comfortable! Thank you so much Elizabeth!

McKenna was able to drop in for my puppos on a late request to save the day!! She was very quick with responses and punctual on visit. My boys were grateful for the fresh air and bathroom break as I was gone most of the day! Will continue to call on McKenna when needed! Thanks!!

Pam and Dave were absolutely outstanding pet sitters—we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! From the start, their communication was warm, professional, and incredibly reassuring. The updates they sent were not only detailed, but genuinely delightful to read—full of personality and little touches that showed how much they truly cared. The photos they took of our cat Gus went far beyond anything we expected. They didn’t just snap a quick picture—they captured his personality, his moods, and all those little moments that made us feel like we were right there with him. It was clear he was comfortable, well cared for, and getting plenty of attention (on his terms, of course!). Pam and Dave truly went above and beyond in every way. They treated Gus with so much care and respect, and that kind of attention is priceless when you’re away. We came home to a calm, happy cat and complete peace of mind. We would trust them again in a heartbeat and recommend them to anyone

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.
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.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.

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.
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.
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.
