“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter than Taylor! We were a bit nervous at first since Steven has only ever stayed with one other person before, but Taylor immediately put us at ease. She was so warm, communicative, and clearly great with dogs. We loved getting daily updates and pictures—it was obvious Steven was having a great time. He looked so happy in every photo, and honestly, a little sad when it was time for him to go! We’re so grateful to have found someone we trust, and we’d absolutely book with Taylor again.”
“Ashley was wonderful I'm always worried with my dog but he was very content when I came to pick him up. She was even very flexible when I had to adjust my time. Very professional will definitely use again.”
“Laurie provided a great home and took great care of our dog. She kept him entertained and happy the whole time we were away. She communicated frequently and kept us up to date. Our pup was relaxed and well cared for.”
“Best family out there to watch your puppers. Harley had a great time and always made me feel safe knowing she was in good hands. Communication and photos were 10/10. Definitely looking forward to letting them watch Harley again! Highly recommended sitters!”
“Rachel was great! She clearly cares about and has the ability to put our dog at ease throughout the stay. We appreciated her flexibility and detailed updates. Would highly recommend! We hope to have her care for our dog again!”
“Christina and her family treated my dog like their own this weekend and made us so comfortable in leaving him!! We were kept updated with texts and pictures the entire time we were gone and we know that Bruno received so much love. From reading books, to running in the yard for hours chasing sticks and fireflies, Bruno was kept busy, and shown lots of love! He could barely keep his eyes open after we picked him up from being so tired out! We will definitely be rebooking and using Christina for any of our future dog watching needs! Thank you again ?”
“This was our fist time boarding our dogs. They did great and loved Joseph. He made them feel comfortable right away. They came back happy and tired. Would definitely recommend Joseph.”
“Leslie took such good care of our pup. He had never been away from home before so this was so out of his comfort zone but she took such good care of him. Would love for her to be one go-to dog sitter.”
“Madelyn and her husband did an excellent job looking after our dog. Madelyn sent frequent updates with photos and videos each day. It was easy to tell Madelyn provided great care and love to our dog. Highly recommended!”
“Bandit was so happy and calm when I picked him up. It was very clear he was comfortable and well taken care of! She took him on several walks and sent many pictures. He was a HAPPY BOY!!”
“Dominic and his team at home took great care of Maddie. She came home worn out from all the playing with the other dogs. They have a great yard for outdoor playtime and plenty of beds all around (and a lap or two).”
“Lori was great with my dog Parsley! She kept me updated and assured me Parsley was doing well and was comfortable so I didn't have to worry! I would definitely recommend her if you need someone to watch your pup.”
“Michelle has a big heart for the dogs and spoils them with lots of love and toys. She has 2 adorable dogs of her own. We were happy to know she has a 6ft fence to keep my fence jumper in and safe. Both my dogs seemed happier and more at ease when we picked them up opposed to boarding. We would love for Michelle to watch our kids again sometime. Thanks!”
“Samantha was amazing and watched my cat for a few hours before a flight while I was home for the holidays. It was a last minute request and she answered and coordinated with me quickly and efficiently. She’s friendly, professional and close to the airport. Would definitely recommend boarding with Samantha!”
“There are no words!! My dog’s age is catching up to him & I know I can trust he’s in great hands here. She always keeps you updated & always sending photos. That’s the comfort you want when you go on a trip without your dog! I can’t thank her enough for all the love given to my boy. She’s reliable, hands on & truly cares.”
About: I’ve taken care and raised dogs for over 43years. My wife and I have always had an average of 2 dogs and a cat for 40 years. I’m very experienced in potty training and basic commands along with at side walk training. Experienced in caring for elderly and mobility restricted dogs I am newly retired and live taking my dogs for walks and playing in the yard with them. I am normally at home all day and enjoy the exercise they bring me. We have a wooded large, study fenced backyard with ample space to roam and play. Typically walks are twice a day and last for 30-45 minutes. While I allow pets on the furniture, I reinforce the owners preferences to ensure consistency. Experienced with medication administration if needed

Leslie was absolutely wonderful with my dog! I was very nervous leaving him because he struggles with separation anxiety. He had some digestive issues and she was so patient, caring, and understanding throughout his stay. Leslie kept me updated, made sure he was comfortable, and handled everything with so much compassion. Knowing he was in good hands gave me a huge sense of relief. She went above and beyond to make sure he felt safe and cared.
Riley was the 2nd rover i’ve ever used, and I chose her based off of days and days of research and comparing different sitters i’d feel most comfortable with. I have a very hard time leaving my Baby, and cry at even the idea of having to leave her. This trip was the longest we have ever left her for, and I can’t lie I was dreading it. I was also worried about how baby would get along with her dogs, cruella and Milk bone. My baby is only 2 and is quite annoying to big dogs when playing, and can irritate older dogs so I get really worried about how she will be received and how the other dogs will treat her but after our meet and greet, I felt 1000% better and felt riley was an amazing option for us. Her dogs were patient, kind and got along with baby so quickly and easily, which made me so so happy. Riley also has such a deep knowledge and talent when it comes dog aggression and behavior I felt so comfortable and her and her dogs both helped train baby with basic manners and play behavior so she can take these skills to any dog and make a friend instead of aggravating others. I was so impressed to see her eating as a pack with the other dogs, playing appropriately and listening. baby had so much fun and left with life long skills that we are implementing into our daily routine. I can’t say enough amazing things about riley, we were gone for 7 days and I felt so comfortable and didn’t worry once. she was even flexible when we had flight cancellations and had to extend her stay by an entire day. if you have any concerns or hesitations, just BOOK. she is amazing, so friendly, and so good at what she does. she’s a natural talent at what she does. Thank you riley!!!! I hope we can do another pack walk soon so baby can come and see her friends again :)
Adam and Kirsten were absolutely amazing with Bruno! He was already limping before we dropped him off, and they took such great care of him and made sure to keep an eye on him the entire time. They sent lots of pictures and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. The best part was picking Bruno up. He came home so happy and in such great spirits. It was obvious he was loved and well cared for. I would 1,000% recommend Adam and Kirsten to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their pet. We’ll definitely be booking with them again!
Cindy S. as advertised and beyond. Cindy kept me updated everyday with pictures. Took care of medications and was always responsive. This was the first time my dog was away from the family in a long time and we were very worried. Cindy helped take away that worry. This is a high recommendation for her services. Worth every penny. Thank you Cindy for taking care of our loved one when we could not.
It is very clear the love Elizabeth had for our dogs while watching them. She set photo updates and checked in with us on any questions. It stormed while she watched our dogs and she was very tentative to our dog with storm anxiety! I will definitely be asking Elizabeth if she will watch our fur kiddos again!
Hands down best dog sitting experience! We have an energetic 65lb and she was treated like a queen over a 5-day period with lots of exercise and attention. Our family really appreciated the extra TLC and communication. We knew our dog was in very caring hands the whole time!
Brittany is a lover of dogs❣️ Every time she boarded my dog, she treated him like her own. He also came back happy and tired from all of the play. If we were not moving out of town, I would entrust her to sit my dog whenever needed. We hope to find a sitter as wonderful as Brittany in our new home state.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Oakview home-away-from-home, we recommend 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 Oakview.
<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 Oakview 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. 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 .
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.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. 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.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
