“Our yorkie, Tucker, had a wonderful stay with Stacie and her family. I received texts and photos every day to let us know how he was doing. Stacie provided immediate responses to my texts. Tucker got so much special attention. I would recommend Stacie to anyone needing pet care ❤️.”
“We felt great leaving our dog with Rachael & Joe. They are serious about their business and it shows. They were quick and professional with their communication and we loved getting pictures of our sweet boy while we were gone! They easily accommodated our last minute need for an extra night after getting stuck out of town due to weather. It was such a relief to know that Ray was being lovingly cared for in a safe place when we couldn't get back to him as quickly as planned. We would definitely use Rachael & Joe again and plan to recommend them to others as well!”
About: I’ve always loved animals and treat every pet like family! I’m caring, patient, and attentive, and I love giving pets plenty of love, playtime, cuddles, and companionship. My goal is to make your fur baby feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. 🐾💕 Hi! 🐾 I’m a stay-at-home mom with a very flexible schedule, so I’m home most of the time and available to give your pets plenty of love and attention. I’m dependable, caring, and would treat your fur babies like they’re my own. I’d love the opportunity to help with walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting! 💕 I have a nice-sized home and prefer pets who enjoy being indoors. Your pet will have their own comfortable space in my home, and you’re welcome to bring a crate or kennel if they’re more comfortable with their own setup. I can also provide their usual food if needed. I have two children, ages 2½ years and 7.5 pmonths. My older child is very mature and understands boundaries and directions. I’ll always gradually introduce her to your pet and only allow interaction if you’re comfortable with it. Otherwise, your pet can have plenty of quiet space downstairs with me. I also have safety gates on my stairs to help keep everyone safe and comfortable.
“Our 2 chihuahua mixes had a great stay with Nicole and her family! Absolutely no issues; Nicole was very accommodating. Will use her again if needed! Thanks for everything!”
“This entire process was new to us and we were worried about leaving our baby boy with an unknown stranger. Erin was willing to talk and answer any questions I had prior to dropping champ off. She's extremely kind and is the best dog sitter around. She took great care of champ and loved on him just like he was her own. Champ stayed with her for a whole week and throughout his stay she consistently sent pictures and he looked so happy and relaxed in her home. He became best friends with her little guy and they would cuddle at night together . Erin is fantastic and we will continue to use her anytime we go out of town.”
“Brandon went above and beyond with our dogs! He sent pictures and kept us updated on how they were doing. Highly recommend and will definitely use him again! Very happy with the care our dogs received.”
“Angela B. Was the best I could have ever had to leave my pet with. My dog Rogue had so much fun. She got a lot of attention and affection. Angela sent pictures and videos to assure me that Rogue was doing okay. I will definitely be taking her back for play dates and other vacations”
“Cynthia and Robert were awesome! Very communicative and able to help on short notice. They went out of their way to make sure my JoJo was comfortable and welcomed him like one of their own fur babies. Would definitely recommend and plan to use their boarding services again in the future!”
“Chelsea is the best! I am truly thankful for her love and care of my cat Pippin. He was really comfortable and happy with her. She sent me videos and photos all week and I could see he was happy. That truly helped me to enjoy my vacation knowing he was being loved and cared for. Thank you Chelsea”
“Lindsey was great with my girls. My nearly 10 year old pup got just the right amount of exercise and attention. Plus she made great accommodations for my hyper, nearly 6 year pup.”
“We are so thankful to have found Melanie! We had 3 sitters that we have used prior, decline to watch Mickey because of other commitments so I searched for someone new and met Melanie. Our initial meet and greet went very well so I felt completely comfortable booking with Melanie. While we were on our trip, she sent us pictures and updates and even gave him a bath for us during his stay with her. She is wonderful and loved our little guy as if he were hers which we really appreciate!”
“Sarah was an absolute pleasure to work with. My pup was in great hands and thoroughly enjoyed his stay. I was kept up to date of their adventures with texts and photos, and never doubted that my boy was in good hands. Sarah will be my first choice in the future. Im so glad to have someone to trust and rely on to take care of my pup. Thank you so much Sarah!”
“Evan and Kaleigh are amazing! I was delayed on the drop off day. They were so patient and encouraged me to take my time getting there. We received pictures and updates throughout the duration of our vacation and were playing with the dogs when I picked them up. My pups were so well taken care of that they barely greeted me, which I took as a great sign! Thank you Evan and Kaleigh for giving us the peace of mind during our vacation!”
“Rachel, Katee and their family were so welcoming to our sweet Kiya! This was the longest trip we’ve been on without her and I felt so much ease knowing they were taking care and loving on her like she was their own. They sent updates everyday and lots of pictures! She loved getting to play with their dog, Rudy and their daughter. We would definitely book with them again!”
“Lucy was great! Excellent communication both before and during our dog’s stay. We highly recommend Lucy to anyone looking for a nice and comfortable place to stay in St. Louis.”
“Highly recommend! Took our 1.5 yr old boxer for a last minute stay and it went great! She introduced our pup to each of her dogs and everyone got along great, fenced in yard for them to roam and lets them cuddle inside on the couches. Thanks again Cheyenne!”
“Jill was communicative and shared pictures daily. She was patient with my dog who had a little separation sadness initially. It was apparent that she cared for Coco the same way we would at home. We returned to very happy dog. We will definitely use Jill in the future.”

Alicia was wonderful. She communicated with me daily with pictures of Whiskey playing with Otis inside and outside. Alicia was flexible when we picked him up, as we were traveling with weather. We plan to use her again, as I think she enjoyed Whiskey as much as Whiskey enjoyed her.

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 IL 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.
