“Alex & his wife took care of my 3 pups over a long weekend. I had them stay at my home as 2 are foster dogs & more comfortable here now. Everything was great & the pups were well taken care of.”
“Words cannot explain how at peace we were with Gabriella being at our house for 2 weeks and taking care of our fur babies! The boys were well loved and taken care of, the house was spotless and the communication was top notch! Don't hesitate for a single second, she is the best one out there!!”
“Thank you! My cats and dog are always so well taken care of as well as my house!🩷 constantly updating me with pictures. I feel so comfortable leaving when Alexandra is with my animals! I would recommend her to any of my family and friends :)”
“Latasha was wonderful! She took excellent care of my baby and really went above and beyond. She was so great with my girl and it was so reassuring to leave my dog in her care. Book her now, you won't regret it.”
“Mae was amazing!! She stayed with my two kitties for 5 days and they were well taken care of during that time. They sent me daily pictures and kept in contact and promptly responded back when I sent a text. It was such a relief having someone to depend on when out of town. Don’t hesitate to have Mae stay with your animals… they will be happy and you will be at ease as well. Thank you Mae!! Will definitely use them again!!”
“Karah was great! This was a last-minute trip, and I was concerned about leaving the pup behind with a new person, but she made me feel comfortable immediately. She came the same day for a meet and greet, and I knew her and Oslo would get along swimmingly. She kept me up-to-date with his walks and how he was doing, and I believe her being at my home really helped him take to her quickly. I will definitely use Karah again, and if you are looking for a sitter, I'd recommend her to anyone.”
About: **I currently have two dogs of my own, but they stay at my partner's home if I am boarding your dog!** Hi! I’m a PhD student who has called St. Louis home for the past five years, and I’m currently in the final stages of writing my dissertation. The good news for your pets? I work from home, so I have plenty of time for walks, belly rubs, playtime, and keeping your furry friends company while you’re away! I am located in The Grove with access to a dog park at my apartment complex as well as walking distance to both Forest Park & Tower Grove Park for pups that enjoy long walks. One of my dogs loves people and dislikes other dogs, while the other one enjoys dogs and is wary of people so I have experience with a variety of dog personalities and their differing needs. Whether your pet is a professional cuddler, an energetic adventurer, or simply here for the treats, I’d love to spoil them ◡̈ Since I work from home while finishing my PhD dissertation, pet care fits pretty naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to take plenty of breaks throughout the day for walks, playtime, and potty breaks. 🐾 My schedule is much more “read a paper, take a dog for a walk, write a paragraph, give belly rubs” than a traditional 9-to-5. I can easily adapt to the schedule of your pup! I’m happy to build pet care into my day and give your pets plenty of attention rather than leaving them alone for long stretches. Having a furry coworker around is honestly a pretty great dissertation-writing perk! 😂 Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or theirs, I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and any special instructions so they can feel comfortable and relaxed. I always keep a close eye on pets during walks and playtime. Since I work from home, I’m able to provide plenty of supervision and companionship throughout the day. I’ll treat your home with the same care and respect I’d want for my own, and I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you can see what your furry family member is up to. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing your pet is safe & happy!
“Evelyn was very communicative and took very good care of our girl. Our senior dog has some quirks and special requests, and Evelyn had no issues, making our time away stress free.”
About: I have a 8 year old Yorkie myself that suffers from joint pain. I have had him since he was born. I understand the importance of delicate care when it comes to taking care of pets including senior pets. What sets me apart is that I’m patient, dependable, and genuine when caring for pets. I understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable and safe. I’m comfortable caring for younger pets who need extra attention, as well as senior pets who may need a slower pace, medication reminders, or additional care. I’m also responsible about following feeding schedules, routines, and special instructions from owners. I am currently working part time with a flexible schedule. I have plenty availability to care for pets, do drop ins and dog walks when needed. I have a friendly male yorkie that is great company for other dogs. I don’t have a fenced yard however I keep dogs leashed and crated when needed. I have a full sized car available for outings. I clean up well behind myself & respect other peoples space & boundaries. I follow any rules & regulations put in place for the good of the pet & integrity of myself.
“Janay & Carlton did wonderfully at our place with our critters. We were gone for 10 days and our anxious goldendoodle, young poodle, and teenager cat were very well taken care of. The house was very well kept and everything just as we left it. We will absolutely be rebooking them next time we leave town. Thanks y’all!!”
“Erin took really great care of our dog while we were on a long trip. She stayed with Ruby most of the time, played with her, took her on walks, and gave her treats! She also kept us informed with pictures and messages daily. When Ruby started getting into our shoes, she sent us photos of what was damaged and moved them somewhere Ruby couldn’t get to them. Having her watch Ruby took a huge weight off our shoulders being away from her. Highly recommend!”
“Sara was absolutely amazing! She communicated well and kept me updated, she took great care of our home and doggos, and I am very much looking forward to having her come again! A++ human with a great energy and love for animals!”
“Grace was wonderful with my boys. I was having horrible anxiety about leaving them so she was really nice to provide me with frequent updates and pictures. I will keep her in mind for future care for my boys if she is willing to watch them again haha. She also left the house just as we left it which I really appreciated. Reach out to her!”
About: I’ve had animals all my life from seniors to littler of puppies. I’ve been to classes to teach and have taken care of multiple pets through hospice. I’ve raised a hand full of litters and pride myself on a loving and fun home for my animals! I can fit almost any Animal within my schedule and around my other small pup! We go on frequent walks and have play time throughout the day. I have a large fenced yard where pets can safely play, exercise, and enjoy some outdoor time. I provide fresh water, supervision, and a safe, comfortable environment. I’m also happy to follow your pet’s usual routine and care instructions.
About: I love playing with cats and dogs to make sure they get the attention they deserve i will do do anything extra to help the owner like take out trash ect. Almost everyday when I'm not busy i make sure i take my feed my cats ol L Play with them using their toys and give lots of pets I make sure they are fed well i take them for walks if something is wrong i will contact the owner and i make sure they are safe.
“Colleen stood out immediately from other caregivers because of her focus on details and learning everything necessary to provide the best care for our dogs during her pre stay visit. She asked many thorough questions and took faithful notes about our pups many needed medications, special diet, health conditions and outdoor routines. We could tell how important it was to her that our dogs receive the right amount of attention and the least possible disruption during our absence. Because our dogs are seniors and may react if left alone for too long, she cheerfully arranged her schedule to stay throughout the day and overnight. Colleen also asked about our home, any expected visitors, watering of plants, how we wanted the mail and packages handled, along with any areas the pups were not allowed. She made sure she had our vet's information, along with a nearby neighbor she could call if needed. Colleen also sent many pictures and videos so we could see for ourselves that they were having a good time and in good hands. Her professionalism gave us the confidence and comfort level to enjoy our time away from home. As a welcome bonus, linens were washed, dried and dishwasher had been run. If any of these things are important to you then we would strongly recommend you consider hiring Colleen.”
About: My experience with animals comes from caring for pets throughout my life, including my own dogs and cats. I’m comfortable with the everyday responsibilities that come with pet care, such as feeding, walks, playtime, cleaning, maintaining routines, and providing companionship. I’ve also helped care for kittens from birth, which gave me hands-on experience with young animals and taught me the importance of patience, cleanliness, observation, and consistency. I understand that every pet is different, and I make an effort to learn each pet’s individual routine, personality, and needs rather than treating every animal the same. Besides my taking care of my own pets my time is free I’m currently unemployed just a full time pet mom and wouldn’t mind taking care of other pets like my own I Have family that helps me take care of my pets at home if needed I also make sure my pets have everything they need when I leave according to how long I will be gone so no need to bring them with me

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 1,647 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Moline Acres. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Moline Acres walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Moline Acres maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Moline Acres 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet 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.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.

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.
