“We recently left our pup Toby with Rachell for 11 days, and he had an amazing time! He loved running around in the fenced yard and playing with the other dogs. We always felt confident that he was well cared for and in great hands. We’ll definitely book with Rachell again!”
“This lovely young couple treated my Sadie as if she were their own. While I was away on my trip,I was contacted every day with a picture and a report. Sadie is 12 years old and it’s hard to leave her but I would leave her with this couple again! Thank you, Morgan and Eric appreciate it!”
“Christina did a very good job watching my dog Bernie. She did a great job keeping me updated on how he was doing throughout the stay. She was good with communication too and very flexible to my schedule. She had a great yard for him to release all that energy. I would recommend her for your pet sitting needs!”
“Absolute best!!! Dave and his wife were so extremely kind and sent me pictures and videos of my dog all throughout the day every day! I felt 100% at ease and will most definitely use Dave’s services again! I recommend with complete peace ❤️❤️”
“Haley made sure I had absolutely NO worries while boarding my little man for a week with her!! Piece of mind is so important, and Haley certainly provides that and lots of love! 💕”
“Laura went beyond our expectations. She took fantastic care of our little Heidi while we were on vacation for ten days. She sent us great photos and stories of what they were doing everyday. Laura even worked with Heidi on different commands like stay and down. I can't even begin to say enough good things about Laura. I would give her 100 stars if Rover would let me.”
“Shane was awesome! He kept us updated the entire time with pictures and videos. He has a really nice yard that Leo LOVED. I never seen him so happy. 100% worth the drive. He really care for Leo. He even brought him out to us and gave Leo goodbye kisses!”
“Anthony was a great sitter for our dog Blue. Blue has difficult feeding habits and Anthony was able to feed him well. We will be sending Blue to Anthony in the future.”
“Zinaida was amazing. She was very flexible and accommodating for pick up and drop off. She took great care of the pups with walks and play time and sent lots of pictures. We will definitely rebook!”
“Stephanie is the best! She is thorough, professional, and has lots of fun with your dogs! It is obvious she loves what she does, and your pets will know this the minute they meet her. Your pooches are in great hands with Stephanie, and you can rest assured they are being well cared for when you are gone!”
“Beth took great care of our Lulo. We like to check how Lulo is doing and we always got a promt answer from her. We had a bad experience with a boarding company, Lulo was sick (diarrhea) after we picked her up. We are so happy to have found Beth, Lulo has been perfectly fine after staying with her and her family.”
“Adam took excellent care of my Golden-Doodle. Nessa is often very timid and when left with sitters in the past, bolts for the door as soon as I arrive to pick her up. That wasn’t the case at all with Adam, he clearly bonded with her in a way that made her feel safe and welcome in his home. Adam sent pictures regularly that showed Nessa happy, playful and well-loved. I will definitely be booking with Adam again.”
“Paula is truly the best! She cared for my senior pup as if she was her own and always went above and beyond. I never had to worry, Bella was always in great hands. I’m so thankful I found Paula during my time in St. Louis. We’ll miss her so much!!”
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
“Jenna is amazing, She sent me pictures and updates on my baby.So I would always know that he was in good hands and when I picked him up.I don't think he wanted to come home.He wanted to stay!! Lol. We'll definitely rebook with her!”
“I hesitate to leave this review only because I want to keep Lorri for myself! She was so good with our dog! Winnie is blind and due to this has separation anxiety when we leave her and a little generalized anxiety in new situations. Within a day, Lorri had her wearing a cute little sweater to keep warm on walls (which Winnie refuses to wear for me), had her cuddling on the couch and even took her for walks in a store! I know Winnie was comfortable with her because she was clearly relaxed in the many photos and videos we got while we were away. Lorri is the best!”

This was the first time we left our dogs for more than a weekend. Dave was great for the dogs, they alway looked so relaxed when he would send photos. They had a great time playing with his furry babies in his awesome backyard. We will definitely be booking him again.
Our girl was well taken care of and very happy when she came back to us! Always quick to respond to check ins and send photos which we loved. We would definitely use Chrystle and her husband again for pet sitting! Thank you for loving on our girl while we were gone!

90% of sitters in Imperial can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Imperial home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Imperial.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Imperial sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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 .
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 MO ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.

Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
