“Ashley is amazing and so knowledgeable with dogs. She is willing to walk our doggo in this freezing weather! Thank you Ashley for all you do! You truly are a blessing to us!!”

“Mary was great! She sent me picture updates, was easy to work with, and most importantly, my dog LOVED her! She’s not usually too crazy about strangers, but she was very very excited to meet her! We will be booking with Mary again!”

“Peace of mind. Our pooch was in very good hands. Maybe too good. Arriving home Storm acted indifferent to our home coming. She was excited to see us but not like if she was in a kennel for 10 days. Very good job.”

“Jackie and Addison are the best! Ophelia and Lou warmed up to them right away! We are so happy we found them! When our schedule changed they were happy to help to accommodate us!”

“Great with the dogs and ensures a mid day run/play time for the dogs. Pups are always excited to see him. Have already recommended Wesley to friends and coworkers.”


About: I work well with all animals. I have trained Pomeranians, Rottweilers, and everything between usong positive reinforcement. I understand they have different needs and none are the same. I listen to your animal. I have cats, a dog, and a bearded dragon. Big dogs don't scare me. Tiny dogs don't either. Cats are to be respected and reptiles are fun. Routines are important to all animals. I work 6:30 am to 3:30 pm daily but am happy to do morning or evening check ins walks or clean ups. My dog loves evening walks. Safety is number one priority and pets will be kept on a leash and with me when outdoors. They are like toddlers and need consistent supervision.

About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was 16, and my lifelong love for animals ensures every furry friend receives dependable, affectionate, and joyful attention! Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine, as I prioritize walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship, making animals a constant part of my everyday life! I work Monday - Thursday from 8am-6pm so weekends and nights are my open availability 🙃 Caring for pets is all about love and balance. I start the day with fun walks and play, followed by nourishing meals and plenty of cuddles. Between bursts of energy, I make sure there’s calm, cozy downtime so they feel safe, happy, and loved—just like they’re part of my family.
About: I own 5 cats of my own they are my pride and joy my cats are my everything and I understand people needing so find someone good to take care of them. I also have 3 dogs 2 chihuahuas and 1 aussie i’m also open to caring for reptiles and such since i’ve had literally every animal. I also am good with puppies or sr dogs I am currently working part time mon, wed, friday and saturday I also have school 2 days a week on tuesdays and thursdays I am always available all day on sunday and school ends at 5 so I can always drop in after school! I make sure dogs go out when needed and probably more times just in case and the dogs just love it outside. As well as making sure dogs are fed at the right time. I always make sure my cats are fed and litter boxes are cleaned.
“Barbara was more than wonderful. We appreciated the meet and greet visit, as the cats were able to meet/see her prior to us being away. She was attentive to each cats needs and treated them as her own. We have one cat that has multiple pills and inhalers, and Barbara did an amazing job in giving the medication to our sweet boy. She really went above and beyond in making sure my babies were taken care of. Each visit we received multiple pictures and updates. We will definitely be booking with her again. There are not enough stars for Barbara!”

About: What sets me apart is my hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, personalities, and backgrounds. I grew up with large-breed dogs and have loved dogs my entire life. When I moved out on my own, adopting a dog was one of the first things I did! I currently have three resident dogs, all of whom I trained myself. Two of the three have severe separation anxiety, so I'm quite well-versed in some of the behavioral traits that come along with that. For the past two years, I've also been actively involved in the dog rescue world by fostering. I've fostered 12 dogs ranging from young puppies who needed to learn the basics to adult dogs who came with more challenging behavioral needs such as resource guarding. These experiences have taught me to be patient, observant, and adaptable with every dog I care for. I understand that not every dog is going to walk into a new environment perfectly behaved, and I genuinely enjoy meeting them where they are and helping them feel safe and comfortable. Whether your dog is a playful puppy, a perfectly behaved adult, or somewhere in between, I'll treat them like one of my own. My goal is for every dog to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away! I currently work from home and have a very flexible schedule. My resident dogs still rule my daily routine. Your pup will get plenty of attention throughout the day/night and can have potty breaks as consistently as needed. I've house trained seven puppies over the past two years, so I'm very used to frequent potty breaks if that's something your pup needs. Otherwise, every 2-4 hours is pretty consistent with the routine my resident dogs are on. I've fostered dogs with a variety of different needs and have always worked it into my schedule. I want every dog in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and at home, so I'm happy to adapt my approach to each dog's individual needs and your preferences as a pet parent. I do have three resident dogs in my home, all of whom are extremely dog friendly. Ideally, dogs staying in my home will be comfortable around other dogs, but I understand that not every dog wants or needs constant interaction. I have a separate guest room that I've previously used for foster dogs who needed some quiet time or a slower introduction. If your pup needs their own space, they can have a dedicated area away from my resident dogs while still having plenty of company - I work from home, and the guest room also serves as my home office. I have an unfenced yard, so dogs are always taken outside on a leash. I also have a long line that allows fogs more freedom to sniff, explore, and play while remaining safely contained. Outdoor time is always supervised, whether your dog is staying with me or I'm caring for them in your home. When caring for a dog in your home, I'll follow your instructions and do my best to maintain your pup's normal routine, including feeding, medication, walks, potty breaks, and any other care they're accustomed to. My priority is always safety, communication, and making sure your pup feels comfortable and well cared for while you're away. I've had people care for my own dogs while I've been away, and I've experienced both sides of the spectrum - sitters who went above and beyond and sitters who left me wishing I'd been there myself. I know how important it is to maintain a dog's routine and give them the same care and attention they're used to. My own dogs are basically my children, so I know exactly what level of care I'd want for them. That's the same standard I'll bring to caring for yours!
About: Hi! I’m a St. Louis native with a lifelong passion for animals, and firmly believe that pets, especially dogs and cats, make the world a better place. Their loyalty, quirky personalities, and ability to bring joy to our everyday lives are just a few of the reasons I am so passionate about caring for them and helping other pet owners feel confident that their beloved companions are in good hands. 🐾 I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. While in college, I worked at a dog daycare and boarding facility, where I supervised playgroups, handled feeding and daily care, and made sure every pup felt safe, happy, and loved. Today, I share my home with two dogs, Arlo and Sadie, and two cats, Puddles and Bubba, so caring for animals is part of my everyday life. As someone who loves to travel, I understand how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your pets while you're away. My top priorities are safety, comfort, and maintaining your pet's normal routine as closely as possible. I also love sending updates and photos, and I'm always open to feedback because every pet deserves personalized care and attention. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, treats, or cuddles on the couch, I would be honored to care for them. Feel free to reach out with any questions or to schedule a meet-and-greet. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I am available Monday-Thursday from 5am-7am, and 4pm-10pm. Friday-Sunday I am available almost any time. I currently offer walks and drop ins, but depending on your needs I am open to discussing boarding services as well! Each pet is different and requires specific care catered to them, and I am committed to doing everything I can to provide exactly what they need. I am happy to discuss and questions or concerns you might have!

About: Honestly I love taking care of animals. I have a few of my own. Salem (cat) and Oscar (pup) Salem is very laid back and so friendly it’s insane. And Oscar being a puppy loves being around anyone and any pet. I currently work full time M-F but please know I will always make time for your fur babies. I’m usually available after 5pm on weekdays and I’m always available on weekends. I do not have a fenced in yard unfortunately but I do have a big grass area behind my house. We have a dog park we can go to nearby if permitted by owner
About: I am currently in a living situation where I can’t have my own pets so trust and believe I will treat your fur children like my own babies! I work part time, so not only do I need the extra income but I but have quite a bit of time and love to give to your fur babies! I only sit your fur babies in their own environments, so they feel safe and know where all their familiar things are while you are gone. If they are down for a ride I am more than willing to safely transport them with me on my errands.
About: I have been working with dogs consistently for the past 6 years, both boarding and training! I have experience working in boarding facilities and along side professional dog trainers, having worked with multiple service dogs (Including my own!) and pet dogs. I'm coming up on 2 years as a Rover sitter and have had many happy pups in my home! Trained in dog behavior and currently working towards becoming a certified trainer. Dogs and their care is my full time job! I am always doing something with or for a dog. Wether that’s training sessions, walks, hikes, or some form of enrichment, we are kept busy around here! Our home has a lovely backyard with a six-foot privacy fence, a splash pool for hot days, and lots of shade! I have a complete dog room set up in our sunroom. Dogs are allowed to be in our living spaces with us, but I do have my office and bedroom blocked off for my own doggies to take a break if needed.
“Karissa is so sweet and always treats our dog with such kindness when she visits. She’s also great with communicating about my dog and what her behaviors are that day. Makes me feel like I’m there in person! Thank you so much!”

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 Herculaneum 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.

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.
