“This is my first time having my pup stay with Lauren and hopefully won’t be the last. My pup Liza looked so happy and kept going back to say goodbye when we left. Clearly she enjoyed her time and was very happy. I know my pup will be looking forward to the next time she is able to stay with Lauren!”
“Andrea was a fantastic dog sitter! Her and her daughter took care of my Jesse like he was their own! They bought him toys and treats and loved on him. He was a very happy dog! Andrea kept me up to date with picks and messages on how Jesse was doing. Jesse loved it there and I would definitely use Andrea again and again! Lots of love in that house hold for all pets!”
“Nicole did a phenomenal job with our dog, Flash. He has a lot of anxiety, but Nicole managed to make him feel comfortable and let him adjust on his own time. I will definitely have her baby sit Flash in the future!”
“I can’t say enough about Amy and family and how well she cared for our pup while we were away. She was sure to familiarize herself with Junie’s commands, daily schedule and routine all to make sure she was comfortable without us. Communication was great with daily updates and pics, including things she knew I would be worried about (like how she slept the first night)! Junie was well loved and well taken care of while we were gone. We will definitely contact Amy again for any Rover needs in the future!”
About: Hi there! I’m Brittanie a lifelong animal lover and experienced caregiver who understands that dogs and cats aren’t just pets, they’re family. Whether your pet is shy and independent or a curious cuddle bug, I’ll tailor my care to meet their unique personality and routine. I’m comfortable with litter box care/potty training, feeding schedules, medications (including oral and topical), and of course—giving space when needed or engaging in play when welcomed. I have experience with rescues, seniors, and multi-animal households, and I always respect boundaries while keeping them safe, calm, and enriched during your time away. I know how stressful it can be to leave your family member behind—so I’ll keep you updated with photos and notes so you can relax, knowing your their is in loving, capable hands. Let’s set up a meet-and-greet—I’d love to get to know you and your companion! While I don’t work from home full-time, I have a consistent routine that allows me to provide reliable care before and after work, with dedicated time for evening check-ins, feedings, and enrichment. On weekends and days off, I’m fully available for extended visits, walks, or overnight care. Because animals are such an important part of my life—I’m actively involved in rescue work and advocacy—I intentionally plan my time to make sure each pet gets the attention, comfort, and structure they need. Whether it’s a quick drop-in, a weekend boarding, or daily check-ins, I take my role seriously and treat each pet as if they were my own. Creating a safe, calm, and loving environment is always my top priority. I take time to understand each pet’s personality, needs, and routine so they feel secure and cared for while you’re away. I believe pets thrive on consistency, so I maintain familiar feeding schedules, potty routines, and preferred activities to ease any stress or anxiety. I approach every interaction with patience and respect—whether that means slow introductions for shy pets, extra play for high-energy dogs, or quiet companionship for independent cats. I also prioritize safety at all times: I double-check gates and leashes, monitor behavior closely, and never leave pets unattended in unsafe situations. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I don’t take that lightly. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos, so you always know your pet is safe, comfortable, and loved.
“Dawn made me feel very comfortable leaving our pup with her for the week. She is very personable and obviously a pet person. She sent photos and communication. I could tell when we picked him up he was happy and not nervous. I feel like he really enjoyed his time with Dawn. We will definitely utilize her as a second family for Paco in the future. thanks Dawn!”
“Bharat was awesome!!! This was the first time we used his services and we could not have been happier. His house is clean, his attitude towards the dogs is one of love and he takes great care!!!! He communicates well with pictures and videos of our dog and we are grateful to him for all the hard work he puts in to the care of a pet. The dogs get good exercise in his backyard and he walks them along a trail. We are very happy and have already booked him again!!!!”

I enjoy spending time with animals, going on walks, playing, and giving them plenty of attention. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I will do my best to make them feel right at home. Your pet will be treated like family and cared for with patience, love, and responsibility. I have a flexible schedule and am happy to work with pet owners to accommodate their needs. I’m available for pet sitting, boarding, walks, and drop-in visits based on scheduling. I understand how important it is to have someone reliable to care for your pets, and I’ll make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away! 🐾 I provide loving, attentive care for pets in my home or my client’s home, depending on the service needed. I make sure pets have fresh water, regular meals, exercise, playtime, and plenty of affection.

I also follow any special instructions provided by pet parents and keep them updated with messages and pictures. My goal is to treat every pet like family and give owners peace of mind knowing their furry family members are in good hands! 🐾
“I think if my dog had a choice, he may have chosen to stay for good! He was happy and SO well taken care of. There was more than enough good communication and pictures to assure us he was having a blast and loving life which made our time away even more relaxing. We will definitely be using this sweet family for boarding again! 👏✨️”
“Eric and Morgan were super responsive and friendly. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a pet sitter! They also accepted my booking request right after I made it even though it was short-notice”
“Elliott loved his stay with Sierra and Matt. They did an awesome job of caring for him and I know Elliott enjoyed the kids. I got pictures everyday of him. Elliott had such a good time, he didn't want to leave when I came to pick him up. Thanks so much for taking such good care of Elliott.”
“Amazing communication and LOTS of pictures! Will definitely use Jennifer again to watch Sammie, I felt reassured she was in good hands seeing my pup playing and having fun.”
“Christina did a very good job watching my dog Bernie. She did a great job keeping me updated on how he was doing throughout the stay. She was good with communication too and very flexible to my schedule. She had a great yard for him to release all that energy. I would recommend her for your pet sitting needs!”

I cannot speak highly enough about our Pup’s stay with Laura and her family. It felt like a home away from home. The children were very welcoming and a complete treat for Alpha, and it was a big relief for us to know that he was under the best care. We will be reaching out to Laura for our boarding as long as she’ll have us 🙏🏻
Jessica is such an amazing dog sitter! She treats Bella with so much love and care and keeps us updated every day with pictures. It gives us peace of mind knowing Bella is in such good hands. We truly appreciate her! Highly recommend Jessica to anyone looking for someone caring and trustworthy to look after their fur babies.
Elisabeth took such wonderful care of Jack during his week-long stay at her home! Our dog can be anxious in new settings, but Elisabeth and her entire family went out of their way to shower him with love, attention, and extra care to help him settle in. Getting daily updates and photos kept our minds completely at ease, and she handled his medication routine perfectly. Elisabeth is a top-tier caregiver, and Jack can't wait for his next stay with her!
The graciously allowed Waffles to stay with them despite the booking being short notice. They were very flexible and accommodating on the drop off and pick up times, and send pictures through the stay, which is always greatly appreciated. Great experience and look forward to be a repeat customer next time I am in need of help with boarding Waffles while in St. Louis.
We had a great experience having our dog Koda stay with Melissa and family over the weekend. She was kind enough to do a meet and greet with us before the stay which helped Koda get used to her two dogs Aengus and ozzy, along with their lovely children. She sent us pictures and kept us posted during his entire stay which we really appreciated. Would highly recommend anyone looking for a loving and safe environment for their pups.
Francesca was in great hands with Lori! Lori is kind and very caring and conscientious. She asked great questions to make everything go more smoothly and to get to know Francesca’s habits. She even went out of her way to buy more treats when they got low and recommended add ins to her food when Francesca wasn’t eating so much. She communicated often with photos and updates, which we greatly appreciated! We felt very comfortable leaving our pup with Lori and will definitely ask her to dog sit again😍

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Ellisville is $39 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $29 and $50 per night.

There are 1,090 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Ellisville. About 93% of Ellisville 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.
