About: I grew up with 15 dogs and 7 cat. I have been working g the the pet care industry for 5 years most recently I was a supervisors for petropolis where I cared for alot of dogs and cats and was responsible for the vast majority of reactive or extremely stressed animals My schedule is free and clear with no recurring commitments I can devote as much time to your fur babies as possible, and give them the care they deserve. Animals thrive on routine and I will do my best to keep them on the schedule they have, maybe with just a few extra treats along the way.
About: I've been surrounded by animals my entire life and have over 20 years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds. I grew up with multiple cats and raised my beloved Cavapoo for 16 wonderful years, giving me firsthand experience with every stage of a pet's life—from playful puppies and kittens to senior care. I'm also the trusted pet sitter for my family and friends, regularly caring for dogs and cats while they're away. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're gone. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or simply providing companionship, I'll care for your pets as if they were my own. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule to provide attentive, reliable care for your pets throughout the day. Whether your pet needs walks, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, medication, or just some extra companionship, I'm able to adjust my schedule to meet their needs and keep their routine as consistent as possible. I believe every pet deserves personalized care based on their individual routine, personality, and needs. In my client's home, I strive to keep pets comfortable by maintaining their normal schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, medication (if needed), and plenty of love and attention. I always treat my clients' homes with the utmost respect and provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, happy, and cared for until you return.
“Suz is incredible. She is warm, flexible, reliable and my fur baby absolutely LOVES her. I have so much trust in her when I’m out of town to take care of my kitty. Absolute gem!”
“She's an awesome sitter for my 3 dogs, she has been coming here on time and done her duty by letting my dogs in the backyard for 3 days straight definitely will hire her again in the future. Very reliable.”
“Bonnie is the most phenomenal sitter. She is thorough with everything and has such a warm presence that your fur babies will enjoy and you will feel assured by. I think one of my cats honestly prefers her to me at this point. Her messages always make me feel assured that my little friends are well taken care of.”
“I felt very comfortable leaving my Great Dane in the hands of Taylor. Although Bella is shy with new people she was always excited to go on walks with Taylor when she arrived. Will definitely hire again.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Maryland Heights
We couldn't have asked for a better Rover sitter! Angie came over the evening before our trip for a meet-and-greet, which immediately put us at ease. She took the time to get to know Molly and even played with her so Molly would be comfortable before we left. While we were away, Angie was dependable, caring, and treated Molly like she was her own. Every visit wasn't just a quick potty break—she spent time playing with Molly and making sure she had attention and companionship while we were gone. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Molly was in such great hands while we were in New York. If you're looking for someone who is reliable, kind, and genuinely loves animals, we highly recommend Angie. We will absolutely be booking her again. Thank you for taking such great care of Molly!
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.
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!
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.

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.
