About: I have loved dogs for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. For the past several years, family members, neighbors, and friends in the St. Louis area have trusted me to check in on their dogs, feed them, play with them, stay overnight when needed, and make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while their people are away. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m kind, patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs of all personalities. Whether they want a long walk, playtime, cuddles, or just calm company. I truly enjoy getting to know each dog’s personality and routine. My goal is to make your dog feel comfortable and cared for and to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I’m currently searching for full time employment so I’ll have plenty of time to play and take care of your pups! There are occasional weekends where I have family things to attend but please reach out and ask! I have pretty open availability. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, medication if needed, playtime, and any house rules. I make sure pets feel safe, loved, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m attentive to their behavior, energy level, and comfort, and I’m happy to provide updates so you know how your pet is doing. I also treat every client’s home with respect and care, keeping things clean, secure, and exactly as instructed.
About: I genuinely, whole heartedly love animals. Have worked with animals (grooming, walking, feeding) since 15, work with young & senior also give meds & arthritis massages. Patient, kind, loving and ready to spread my love for animals. Have worked at Kennelwood, No Leash needed, Camp Bow Wow and volunteer at the humane society. All animals deserve love. I’m available to house sit or pop in for walks, I start my new job 8-4 M-F so available anytime to house sit during the week & weekend would just be out during that time if house sitting. I love to go for walks and play so your baby will definitely be stimulated with me around! If you have toys or treats I will keep them entertained and work with whatever training goals you have for them. If a tail isn’t wagging it’s my goal to get it to!
“Summer was a delight to work with and our dogs loved her! She did as asked and always arrived and stayed for her drop ins as arranged. We would definitely hire Summer again for drop ins with our dogs loved:)”

About: I’ve been dog and cat sitting since high school. I have house sat with animals as well as just dropped in to feed them and walk them. Family friends, relatives, and friends of friends have always trusted me to help out. I’m currently a graduate student looking for extra work taking care of your pets. Weekend sitting works best for me but depending on location I can do drop ins as well. I have an apartment with plenty of sidewalks nearby and plenty of green space around. I am warm and welcoming to all pets and want to make them feel as comfortable as possible. I currently have no other pets of my own.

About: I've been surrounded by animals my entire life and have over 20 years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds. I grew up with multiple cats and raised my beloved Cavapoo for 16 wonderful years, giving me firsthand experience with every stage of a pet's life—from playful puppies and kittens to senior care. I'm also the trusted pet sitter for my family and friends, regularly caring for dogs and cats while they're away. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're gone. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or simply providing companionship, I'll care for your pets as if they were my own. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule to provide attentive, reliable care for your pets throughout the day.

I believe every pet deserves personalized care based on their individual routine, personality, and needs. In my client's home, I strive to keep pets comfortable by maintaining their normal schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, medication (if needed), and plenty of love and attention. I always treat my clients' homes with the utmost respect and provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, happy, and cared for until you return.
About: I have had animals in my house since I was a child. My cats act more like dogs and love to play and have fun yet they can still be calm and cuddly. I would love to create memories with your pets as well! I currenlty spend 3 days working from and can be there for your pet when they need me. They are also able to keep me company as I watch movies or binge tv shows. They are always allowed a cuddle to sleep or a cuddle on the couch. I have a fenced in yard but can also have your dog leashed and taken on a walk or tethered in the yard. They will always have access to food and water and are fed on whatever schedule you would like them to be fed on. Playtime is also my favorite. I have a lot of open space in my home and have a room where they would be able to go if they prefer to not be around other animals.
About: I have trained puppies, designed programs to solve behavior problems in adult dogs, cared for senior dogs, specializing in multi-dog households with a mix of all the above. I am currently designing software for a start-up idea so my schedule is very flexible. Ideal hours for day visits are between 8am - 9pm, overnight from 7pm - 9am “ish” and always available for emergencies. Different pets have different wants/needs so I will adapt my gameplan accordingly. Each visit will include some form of exercise, training and lots of love. My yard is fenced and my house is puppy-proofed. Lots of soft and shaded places to nap, inside and out. I use pest control and landscaping services so the yard is virtually free of stinging or biting insects and dangerous weeds or flowers. Clients can expect me to care for their pets and their property with utmost respect for house rules, privacy and courtesy.
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats since I was young child. My friends and family have relied on me to watch their animals while on vacations because they know I truly care about the well being of their pets. I'm a reliable, friendly and loving person who would enjoy spending time with your pet. I currently work full time at home during the day and would be able to watch your animal almost 24/7. I don't have kids nor married so I have tons of free time and looking for a side job that would bring me joy and help you relax knowing your animal is taken care of. I have one cat and his name is Jack aka Fatty or Jackie. He has been around dogs his whole life. I also have two small dogs; Vinny and Charlie. Mini Schnauzer & Cockapoo. They are great dogs & love other dogs!
“Our dog is high anxiety, even when staying at his own house and Molly is doing a drop-in. She is very patient and understanding of our rescue. We appreciate her trying to get our baby to play, but he doesn’t even do much when we try. So she tries to just be present with our dog, take pictures, and give treats. She understands him.”
“Sara has been so helpful, communicative and wonderful! She was extra patient with our grumpy old man =) We highly recommend Sara for your pet sitting or drop in needs! Can’t wait to have her back in the future. Thanks Sara!”

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Ferguson stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

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 Ferguson 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 .

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 Ferguson with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
