“I will definitely rebook with Bonnie if I go out of town. My very anxious cat came out to cuddle with her, and she does that with no one but me. Bonnie also provided great reports each day of the fantastic, thorough job she did. As a result, I was able to travel and enjoy my trip stress free. Because you know when someone asks me to go out of town, I cringe and think "no! My cats!" Now I don't need to worry. Highest recommendations.”
“Suzanne went above and beyond for the week she watched my kitty. She’s a great communicator and made me feel very comfortable leaving my fur baby when I went home for the holidays. I’ll definitely use her again next time I’m out of town! Xox”
“Cannot say enough great things about Haley. She followed all of the directions extremely well, took great care of Theo and went above and beyond to stimulate him during their outings. Highly recommend!”
“Taylor was incredibly accommodating and responsive. She followed instructions perfectly. Definitely recommend and hope to use her services again in the future!! Thanks Taylor!!”
About: My experience in pet care is broad and customized to each animal's specific requirements. I have experience working with older pets, adult dogs, and puppies, so I have a comprehensive understanding of their unique needs regarding care. I am different from other sitters because I take a different approach to establishing comfort and trust. I place a high priority on positive reinforcement methods, particularly for puppies, as it helps them learn important commands while making sure they have fun. I concentrate on the unique medical requirements of elderly pets, such as managing medicines and addressing mobility issues. I work hard to provide every pet in my care a loving environment, whether it means attending to their specific nutritional needs, exercise requirements, or affection. I work flex at Amazon so my schedule is pretty open. Just tell me what days you need me and I’ll do my best to accommodate for that. I take the time to learn about the unique personality and preferences of each pet, which makes them feel more at ease. I am open in my communication with pet owners about their unique habits and any worries they may have.
“Meg was great with our pups! She left a great summary of her visit. I especially appreciate her care of our deaf dog. We will definitely use Meg again to watch our pups. Thank you!”
About: With over 10 years of experience caring for pets, I provide reliable, compassionate, and personalized care for dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, and personalities. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I take the time to learn their routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I have experience caring for playful puppies, including reinforcing potty training, crate training, and basic commands through consistency and positive reinforcement. I’m also experienced with senior pets, providing gentle care, administering medications when needed, and ensuring they receive the patience and extra attention they deserve. I work in Education so I’m currently off for summer break,I have very open availability. I am available for drop ins, walks and over night stays! I treat both the home and pets with the utmost respect. I keep everything clean and secure, maintain the pet’s normal routine, and provide regular updates with photos so owners can relax knowing their pets are happy and well cared for. My goal is to make every pet feel at ease and every owner feel confident that their furry family member is in caring, dependable hands.
About: I love all animals! I have owned a dog for most of my life as well as other pets. I have also helped with dog and cat sitting before, and would love to help you out too! I worked to train my family dog, and can help reinforce training for your pets too! I am a very caring and loving person and will share these qualities with your pet! I will not only fill your pets needs but I will also take the time to play fetch with them or snuggle up with them on the couch! I can help administer needed medications or fulfill any other special requirements to keep your pet happy and healthy as well! I am a teacher so over the summer I have lots of free time! During the school year I am free each morning or afternoon, and on the weekends! I am able to stop in multiple times throughout the day and would love to hang out with and care for your furry friend! I would play with, hang out with, and care for your pet during my time there! I would also make sure I let them approach me first to make sure they feel comfortable and safe!
“One of, if not the best, dog sitters I’ve ever had. Any worry I thought I had she handled, great with communication, follows all instructions and is very flexible and nice. 10/10 would recommend and will definitely use again.”
“Absolutely great! Super friendly, understanding, flexible and the cutest fur baby! So grateful to have had her and making this vacation less stressful for us as we've never had a dog sitter before. The pictures were the best addition as well, thanks a million! Will ask for you again and recommend you highly by name.”
“Katelyn really was taken with the boys and they with her. She played with them and cuddled, then sent pictures every day. I never felt a moments worry, I had complete confidence in Katelyn and I wasn’t disappointed. Would re-book with her in a heartbeat!”

Bonnie is the most attentive, fun, thorough sitter! She left detailed summaries for each visit so I didn’t have to worry a bit while she was checking in on my cats. Even with a short trip, my usually shy cats warmed right up and felt very comfortable with a new sitter. Will absolutely rebook with Bonnie without a second thought!

Heather was so great with my cat! Heather was responsive, responsible, and caring with my cat while I was on a trip for about 5 days. Heather entertained her and even watered my plants while I was away, and left my cat and my apartment the same way I left them :)
Courtney is a warm, professional and detail oriented person who wants to do the best job possible. She saved the day when my regular sitter was unable to help. She was calm and meeting my somewhat reactive German Shepherd and was comfortable with that dogs energy which probably made the dog feel much more comfortable. They became good friends at the end. I would highly recommend her!
Kelsi was great, accepted for us last minute as first sitter cancelled and we were stuck 600 miles away. She came over for a p.m. walk within a couple of hours. She saved us for sure! She gave thorough update and plenty of pics. We will try to book with her again next trip we take!
Lacey has been wonderful to work with. She’s patient, caring and very responsive! Working with our new puppy and our older rescue was a special experience and Lacey did an awesome job checking in with them, respecting their limits and communicating with me about their visits. I’d definitely book Lacey again as my pups have grown very comfortable with her!

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 Maryland Heights 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.

- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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.
