“Kerry has saved me multiple times now with last minute bookings and I always love the pictures she sends over of the cats during her visits. 10/10 Would recommend booking with Kerry!”
“Kristen was great! She went over and above in walking my dog around the block rather just letting her out in the back yard. I really appreciate the effort and time she spent with Betty. Will definitely be rebooking again soon!”
“Ended up no needing Julianna to come today, but she was there ready to come by if we weren’t going to be home. Julianna is always reliable and dependable. We are so grateful to have her nearby!”
“Briony was amazing with Cooper and he really enjoyed his time with her! It was my first time leaving him with a new person. She was very patient, communicative, supportive while I was away. She really went out of her way to make sure I was comfortable with the care she provided. Cooper had several hot spots that were in different phases of healing. She was very attentive to his care and made sure he got what he needed during every visit. Furthermore, after a power outage, my fridge had a leak. She communicated that to me asap and did what she could to ensure there was no additional damage. 10/10 would definitely recommend!!!”
“Sean was our first experience hiring someone to look after our girls. He was extremely responsive, kept us updated, and spent time with our babies. One of them consistently had accidents while we were gone but Sean took care of it every single day no problem. He made sure to spend some time with them in the yard and gave them some brushing due to it being shedding season! Since he lives close to us, he would pop by in to check on them in the afternoon. One of our babies started showing some scary symptoms our last night of vacation and Sean cared as if it was one of his own babies. Sean was fantastic and we highly recommend hiring him!”
“I have such amazing things to say about Marisa!! First of all she is just a great person! Second off, I have a very stubborn 6 year old German shepherd that is extremely protective of his home and somewhat standoffish at first. We had a meet and greet a few days before our trip and max seemed to like her so we felt confident it would work out. After several treats and a few visits max warmed right up to her and now they are best buds! She took her time and got to know the big sweet boy underneath his stubbornness lol! We will definitely be rebooking with her every time we are out of town! I recommend her 1000%!”
“Kaylah was honestly the best I could’ve asked for. My animals were well taken care of and they enjoyed their time. She was reliable, responsive and provided pictures daily”
“Ariana was an absolutely wonderful sitter for my dog, and I would happily book with her again. She came every day as scheduled, took great care of my dog, and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. She was incredibly attentive, reliable, and communicative throughout the entire stay. One of my favorite parts was receiving the daily updates and photos. It was clear from the pictures that my dog was comfortable, well cared for, and getting plenty of love and attention. If you’re considering booking Ariana, don’t let the number of reviews deter you. She is trustworthy, dependable, and genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. I felt completely confident leaving my dog in her care, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and responsible pet sitter.”
“Brittany was great with our two cats. They seemed well adjusted to us being away. Great communications and photos. Appreciated her help in resolving an issue with one of our automatic feeders.”
About: I’ve owned 2 dogs, 2 cats, a bird! Very skilled in providing care to sickly or elderly pets. I have experience administering pills, chemotherapy, and injections to animals with special needs. I’m saving up to go to law school, so I have ample time on my hands. I can stay days, nights, do daily drop ins. I can fit your pets’ needs. I have a fenced in backyard with lots of space. I have 2 cats that are very friendly. My neighborhood is great for walking dogs and getting outside time.
About: Since i was younger I’ve always loved dogs. Whether my own or volunteering at a shelter my passion has always been animals <3 When i heard about Rover i was ecstatic. Having the chance to meet more fur babies , getting to know each personality, and learning more everyday is something i am looking forward to. I do work full time but an early morning shift (4am-12pm) I have the rest of my day, why not fill it doing something i love? Which is pet care! I take pride in animals and often feel as though i can connect with them better than humans! Other than working in the morning my day is free! I live in an apartment which does not have a yard, but there is a park less than a 2 minute walk from where i stay! My neighborhood is dog friendly and does require leashes on every dog! I can crate your dog if needed, and make adjustments as requested.
About: Hello! I have taken care of pets since my high school days. I enjoy taking care of pets because it is a calming experience. Not only will I take care of your pet, I will dote on them because I believe these innocent animals deserve to be taken care of. I spend my free time playing outdoors and going on walks. I love to interact with animals. If you have a high energy pet it will fit perfectly with my active lifestyle. I care for pets by understanding their body language to be mindful of their needs. I plan on being a companion to your pet. I find joy in nurturing animals.
“I can’t say enough good things about Mary. She took such amazing care of my dog, Pixie, while I was on vacation. From the start, Mary was reliable, communicative, and clearly loves animals. I got regular updates and photos that showed just how happy and comfortable Pixie was — it gave me total peace of mind while I was away. When I came home, Pixie was relaxed, well cared for, and clearly had a great time. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Mary again and highly recommend Mary to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving pet sitter. Thank you so much, Mary, for treating Pixie like your own! 🐾”
About: I've took care of dogs since I was 6 years old. I had a blind cat that I cared for when I was 17 years old. Feeding and walking are the main ways to keep animals well taken care of. Exercising helps keep the pets in great condition with blood properly flowing to the heart. I'll soon be working on getting my veterinarian certificate/license. I'm currently free everyday just not after 6 o'clock pm. I’m free Friday-Sunday mainly all day. If you need a weekend sitter I can be there. I can keep your dog occupied playing and giving belly rubs. Make sure there are no hazards that the animal can choke on safety first.
“Audrianna did an excellent job communicating and was quick to respond, even with me booking on short notice. It's very evident she loves what she does! Thank you thank you thank you!”
About: Powered by passion, fueled by happy tails, and alongside a strong foundation in veterinary medicine, I am committed to providing compassionate, knowledgeable care. I take pride in forming trusting relationships with every pet I meet Pets free roam! I have an area for feeding, able to walk pets several times throughout the day, and my home provides a quiet/stress free environment for both dogs and cats! Pet care and enrichment are my top priority. I provide multiple walks throughout the day, positive reinforcement, and approved treats. Daily playtime is included! I am trained in administrating medicine via subcutaneous injection, transdermal medication, and oral medication.
About: Hello! I’m Adreana and I've seen the nitty, the gritty, and the nasty...nothing can scare me away, trust me I volunteered for a shelter in college lol. In terms of my tangible experience, I've logged an immense amount of hours volunteering at animal shelters and pet-sitting for various friends and family. I'm a huge advocate for exercise and fitness for pets so if you leave your dog with me, I guarantee that we will be going on runs and playing outside. I have my own fur baby and she is my whole life, I’ve even opted out of having kids ?? doggies will do. I one day hope to own my own “no-kill” shelter. If you book me I promise your dog will thank you!

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Forest Park on Rover is $17.12 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 6,648 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Forest Park. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Forest Park 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Forest Park. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
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.
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.
