“Kathryn snuggled with my baby and got plenty of play time:) came home to a clean home and a happy baby. Could not ask for more! Would definitely recommend her and I will be using her many time again in the future”
“Marissa is AMAZING!! She took wonderful care of our fur babies and sent pics and updates. I would 1000% recommend her!! Our babies were so relaxed and showed no signs of stress upon our return. Being able to vacation and know that your pets are happy and loved at home, is priceless!!”
“Kacy is fabulous! We had a meet and greet prior to booking and felt so comfortable with her friendly and positive energy. She is such an animal lover. She took care of our babies by house sitting while we were away for a long weekend. She sent multiple updates a day, and really put our minds at ease. We are so so so thankful. We had no doubt that they were in such caring hands! Highly recommend!”
“We really felt at ease with Donavon taking care of out pets. The house was left clean and the mail was brought in. It really made coming home a lot easier. I will def use him again. Thank you!”
“Like most, I treat my pets like extended members of my family. It has been difficult for me to take a vacation and truly unplug because I’m worried if they’re being cared the way I would care for them. I read Charae’s glowing reviews and took a chance. Overall, she provided the BEST experience I’ve ever had with pet sittting. Charae’s warm demeanor, attention to detail, and impeccable professionalism has made me (and my pets) a lifelong fan. She asks questions and follows up often. I finally got to enjoy a vacation worry free! She sent pics of her adventures every step of the way. It provided such a peace of mind. She stayed in my home for a few days, and it was exactly the way I left it when I came back. My pets were SO happy. Thank you for building our trust and friendship, Charae! We cannot wait to partner with you again! xo”
“Kyle is very comfortable and confident around dogs, which Gus could pick up on. Gus took to him immediately. He has that easy going approach of someone who has been around dogs most of his life. We will book Kyle again and I would recommend him to others.”
About: I’ve always been an animal person! I grew up with both cats and dogs and now have two cats of my own who are very much part of the family. I’ve also spent years helping care for the pets of family and friends, as well as dogs and cats in the homes of families I’ve nannied for. I’m happy to go on walks, play, give lots of attention, or just hang out with a pet who wants some company while their people are away. I know how much I worry about my own pets when I leave them with someone else, so I want you to feel comfortable knowing yours are being loved and cared for while they’re with me! I’m currently a full-time graduate student, so my schedule is pretty flexible and I spend a lot of my time studying and working on school from home. I’m not currently working outside of school, which gives me plenty of availability throughout the week for pet care. I’d especially love to add some regular dog walks into my daily routine, it gives me an excuse to get outside, take a break from schoolwork, and spend time with some four-legged company! I’m also available for drop-ins and am happy to work around your pet’s usual routine rather than expecting them to work around mine. I will follow your pets normal routine and any instructions you leave regarding schedules, medications, and preferences. Expect to receive pictures and videos of your friend when they are in my care as I love when others do the same!
About: I grew up with cats, dogs, and fish in our home. I got my own puppy when I was 24. He was my baby until he passed away at 12 years old. I believe pets are family and should be treated that way. I especially love taking dogs on long walks or playing fetch until they’re worn out. I’m a stay at home mom/housewife so I have flexibility in my schedule during the week M-F. I can make most drop-in requests work. I prefer to care for dogs in your home. I can easily follow directions whether that is crating your dog, making sure they’re in a closed off area, or any other requirements.
“Alicia did a wonderful job caring for our shy, but sweet boy (cat) and our home. She was great about checking in, sending pics and communicating with me throughout the time she stayed. And she left our house spotless. I’d happily ask her to sit for us again and recommend her to others looking for a responsible, caring sitter for their pets.”
“Charity was amazing! She stepped in and helped us when we needed someone to come and take care of our dogs last minute. She showed care for our home, make sure the dogs were cleaned up a little bit after having a muddy time outside, and just show them love and care while taking care of them! We will definitely be using charity again !”
“Mara did a fantastic job with all our animals while we were away in our 6 day vacation! She house sat with them for the full time and kept them from being lonely and sad. Everyone was well taking care of and the house looked as good if not better than it did when we left. We got daily pictures of everyone and many updates throughout the day. We will definitely use Mara again in the future!”
About: Growing up, I lived on a small farm and have been around animals my whole life. I’ve taken care of other peoples pets as well. I’m currently a teacher, and I will have more availability during the the summer. Right now I’m free on the weekends and also some evenings. I have a fenced in yard as well as my own golden doodle. He loves to have friends over and is very friendly and playful. We also have a Ragdoll kitten that is super sweet and friendly.
About: Have had dogs all my life. I majorly spoil my dogs. Im 27 and have had my own dog my whole life and take care of my dogs by myself on my own. I was a dog trainer for 2 years at PetSmart! I am a full time supervisor at TJMaxx in Lake St Louis, so I will be able to either stay at your homes while I am not at work or do drop by on my way to work and on my way home, or whatever is needed! Dogs coming to my house is not available at this moment. I do not have a reliable area for other dogs to come to MY House but more than welcome to go to the clients house!
“Kate did a wonderful job taking care of my pup while I was away on business. Having an older dog requires extra feeding instructions, along with medications, and it all went smoothly. Definitely recommend her services to anyone looking for a sitter sometime soon!”
“Maria did a great job taking care of Charlie. She also made sure the house was exactly like we left it. The only glitch was a problem with her schedule that delayed her initial arrival. I would definitely use Maria again.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was a small child. I’ve helped Family and Friends both in town needing drop-in and out of town. I am a retired, single grandmother with a part-time job, looking for something to do with my spare time and who wouldn’t want more than to spend time with somebody furry I can come several times a day for drop-in visits whatever you need I can do you can count on me for trust, loyalty, and safety
About: I grew up in a house full of animals, so loving and caring for pets is second nature to me! Our household currently includes two cats (Walter and Wanda). When your pet stays with us, they become part of the family—expect plenty of belly rubs, playtime, and pampered care! Being a Stay at home mom, I have flexibility that allows me to do things like hiking trails, running at the lake, and house/pet sit for my friends and family. Growing up with both indoor and outdoor animals has helped me adapt to different pets behaviors and still create a trusting environment so they feel safe.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Foristell walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Foristell maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Foristell 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
