About: I’ve watched both family pets, and the pets of others for about 5 years, and I’ve been able to successfully provide efficient care. I live with my grandparents, who also have a dog that I help take care of on a daily basis. I’m currently open to all times of the day and most days of the week! I would be more than happy to watch your animals on the weekday as well as the weekend. I care for pets by keeping surveillance over them as much as possible, as well as making sure they are in a safe and clean environment.
About: Empathetic and caring towards pets. My first pet was a fish, named Cogi. Since then I've had a gerbil, dog (bichon frise) named Casso, and now have two cats (littermates - part maine coon - Sage & Chowder). I have enjoyed times when I volunteered with child care and senior care facilities in the past as well. Always enjoy spending time with and connecting with pets. Rarely if ever meet any pet I have difficulty connecting with. I'm currently self employed, studying for MO real estate exam & license, and often engaged in other opportunities on the side as well. However, despite my busy schedule at times, I am quite proficient at juggling tasks, maintaining physical & mental health, eating healthy, exercising when possible, and still prioritizing pet care in the midst of it all! I can bring toys, treats, food, litter or anything needed, but am not currently boarding pets at my residence. I will do everything I can to make your pet(s) feel comfortable, clean up after myself and any pet(s), and keep you informed of anything out of the normal.

About: I've spent over 40 years caring for animals, from small dogs like Mini Dachshunds and cats to large breeds, including German Shepherds, Rottweilers, Dobermans, Chows, Pitbulls. I currently share my home with a long-haired German Shepherd and a beautiful long-haired domestic cat who are my babies. My daughter is also there while in college & has 2 cats so animals have always been an important part of my life, and to me, they're family, not just pets. In addition to caring for my own animals, I've provided pet sitting for friends and family, including multiple-dog and cat households. One of my most meaningful experiences has been caring for my German Shepherd following a serious attack that left him with very significant injuries. Helping him through his recovery gave me firsthand experience with the patience, attentiveness, and compassion required when an animal needs extra support. I'm comfortable administering oral medications according to instructions, maintaining feeding and exercise schedules, and adapting to each pet's individual personality and needs. Whether your pet is a tiny Dachshund, a large German Shepherd, or a beloved cat, I'll treat them with the same love, respect, and attention I give my own animals. My goal is to make sure you can travel with peace of mind, knowing your pets are safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. I've always seemed to have a special connection with animals, even those who are normally hesitant around people. There's a little shop I frequent with a resident cat who apparently doesn't warm up to many visitors. One day, she surprised her owner by jumping right into my arms! Moments like that mean the world to me. I've always believed animals are some of the very best judges of character. I currently work an interesting schedule that allows me several consecutive days off. I have a rotating schedule. One week I work Sun-Tues 6am-6pm and the next I work Sun-Wed. The days I work are 12 hr days. But depending on how close you are to my job (Bridgeton area) I could potentially check in on them on my hour lunch and then go there after work at 6pm.. I live in Illinois but I dont plan alot of things this time of year so I have pretty good availability. Shoot me a msg, we can probably work it out. Even holidays. Talk to you soon! :) I believe pets are happiest and most comfortable in their own familiar environment, especially when their family is away. My goal is to maintain their normal routines as closely as possible while providing a safe, loving, and stress-free experience. Before accepting a booking, I like to learn about each pet's personality, daily schedule, feeding instructions, medical needs, and any special behaviors or concerns. I also believe meeting beforehand is important so both the pets and their owners can feel comfortable with me. Safety is always my priority. I'm attentive to securely closing doors and gates, using appropriate leashes during walks, and being mindful of potential hazards. Having cared for my own German Shepherd through a serious recovery, I understand how quickly unexpected situations can arise and how important it is to pay attention to changes in an animal's behavior or well-being. I respect my clients' homes and privacy and will treat their property with the same care I give my own. I also believe communication is essential, so I'm happy to provide regular updates and photos to give owners peace of mind while they're away. Most importantly, I understand that I'm being trusted with two things that mean a great deal to someone: their beloved pets and their home. I take that responsibility seriously.
About: I’ve always had animals ever since I was little. I have always kind of had an eye for animals, just so much love to give and receive. No matter what happens they’re always there for you and they don’t let you down. They are great companions and I wouldn’t want to be without mine. Fun walks through the park on a nice cool evening or a fun jog durning the day as long as we both get water breaks lol a fun game of fetch or just some nice warm loving cuddles watching a movie together. There is always something to do with your companion, even a cozy nap would be nice. I love them all shapes and sizes, no judgement from me. I look forward to meeting your furry friends!

“Kyani was absolutely amazing with my dogs (Laila & Bowe) She was attentive, she took tons of videos and pictures which kept me connected to my fur babies. She gave them plenty of play time and I can tell by the pictures my fur babies loved hanging out with Kyani. If I ever need a dog sitter I'll be contacting Kyani.”

“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!!”

About: I allow the doggie to decide on their day of course following what routine you have set for them. I will Vlog so you can see what a true doggie star they are! I'm energetic so we will hike, jog, walk and wag our way into a fun filled day. My days and weekends are very flexible. I have a massage/pet caregiver business in St.Louis, Missouri and Taos, New Mexico that only I manage! I've cared for Great Danes to Pugs from puppies in potty training to females in heat. I treat them as they are my own and always adhering to their routine. Booking me "Animal Planet", belly rubs, and fun will be in your future (wiggle wag wiggle wag wink) Thank you, dawn I currently work part time as a massage therapist with a very flexible schedule. I will try and arrange potty breaks close to what your pet is used to but there will be days I can be gone up to fours hours. I treat your pet as you do and keep them on their routine. I always have a pet on a lead unless they’re in their own backyard. I usually have them stay clear of other animals and children since they’re are extra anxiety’s due to owner/parents being away. Your fur babies happiness and safety is first priority.
“Alex was extraordinary in the care he gave my dog! My dog adored him and I was so grateful he was experienced how to walk him. I highly recommend Alex for the best care!”

About: I’ve been a pet sitter for since 2017, and using Rover since 2022, and I absolutely love taking care of animals! From playful pups to independent kitties, I’ve had the pleasure of looking after pets of all kinds. As a lifelong animal lover and a pet-mom, I know how important it is to provide pets with the love and attention they need to feel comfortable and happy while you’re away. I am a full time biology student at UMSL. As long as it fits to my school schedule, I am flexible for your pet(s)' needs! I take care of your pets in their own home because I have 2 kitties, I am not able to offer in my home right now. I follow your pet(s)' routine to ensure they feel familiar and at ease in their space.
About: I’ve grown up surrounded by pets. My family currently has 2 German Shorthair Pointers and two tabby cats, but we’ve also had smaller dogs and ferrets over the years. In college I served as a Board member for a local no-kill animal shelter in Kirksville, MO where I helped make decisions for the good of our rescues and local strays. I also helped care for our rescues through feeding, walking, monitoring health needs, and transporting to the vet. Since college, I’ve been pet sitting for family friends in the Webster, Glendale, and Collinsville, IL areas. I’m hoping to branch out and help more families with their pets! I have experience with dogs up to 80 lbs, cats of all ages including very young kittens and elderly, and even pets who need quite of bit of medication. Occasionally once a week I’ll potentially work an 8-9 hour, but typically the days I work are around 5 hour shifts. When petsitting I generally hang out with the pets during my free time! I do my best to follow all directions given to me by the pet’s family. Many families have me come by before their trip to show me the pet’s routine, and they leave me a sheet of directions in case I want to reference it. I’ve helped with dogs who have very strict routines, such as specific feed times, walks 3x a day, etc. I want to keep the pets on their routine and in their own homes, so I usually stay at the family’s house with the pets while they’re gone.
About: I’ve taken care of family and friends dogs and cats for the past 8 years. I have always been passionate about animals and making sure they are loved and cared for. I have been needed to bathe, feed, take on walks and give medicine. I have trained my own dogs, and know how to train basic dog training and leash training. I have fostered kittens and puppies at the humane society in Columbia MO. I was also a volunteer dog walker at the Humane Society for 2 years during college. I am currently taking summer classes for my Masters degree, so I have lots of free time to play and take care of any pets. While ensuring the animals wellbeing and feeling cared for. I have a fenced in yard for my dog, my dog is older and mostly sleeps inside during the day. It is very important that I am organized and prepared for the service I am completing while it be dog walking or drop ins. I will ensure that your furry friend is well cared for and receives all necessary care and love.
“Ruth was very professional and did the job well. She fed my pet, cleaned out the litter and also generously offered to water the plants while she was there. Highly recommend and will book again.”

About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats most of my life. From training puppies, to caring for older dogs who have needed round the clock medicine and care and everything in between. I have taken care of kittens/cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, lizards, fish, you name your pet and I have probably come into contact with it at some point. I have always wanted to become a veterinarian, but life took me in other directions, so now I show my love and support for the animal community by helping people take care of their fur babies. I am currently working 5 8hr shifts outside the home, but am available for walks, check-ins and other services! I am off by 215 every day so plenty of time in the evenings. My neighborhood is wonderful, I have plenty of nearby parks, as well as, a walking trail directly in my neighborhood. It is a very pet friendly place, with lots of other pets to interact with and also has a dog park. I usually only do healthy treats for training, but obviously will cater to whatever schedule or routine your animal needs.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 2,479 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across High Ridge. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 High Ridge 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.
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.
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.
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.

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.
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.
