“Nancy and Paul were delightful. They took great care of our four cats, gave them lots of love and attention, and sent us photos and thorough reports each visit. We would absolutely book them again!”
“arb recently did pop in house visits for our cat, Louie, for 11 days, and she was absolutely incredible! She sent us tons of pictures, videos, and detailed updates every day, so we always knew how things were going. I never once worried about someone being in our home, and I always felt completely confident that Louie was getting the very best care, probably even better than if we had been home with him! 😂 She even left the sweetest notes and some hilarious pictures of Louie for us, which honestly made our day when we got home. 🥹❤️ We 100,000% recommend Barb and will absolutely be using her services again! If you are looking for someone you can truly trust with your pets and your home, Barb is the one! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats for about 5 years now. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities, whether they love to play or just want someone to hang out with. I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust the person watching your pet, and I’ll treat yours like they’re my own. I am a student at Maryville University so I can do check in’s and walks in the mornings and evenings. I’m also flexible on Fridays and weekends and will do my best to work around your pet’s routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll always follow your care instructions, make sure your pet has fresh water, food, exercise, and plenty of attention. I’ll treat your home with respect, keep everything clean, and send updates with photos so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away.
About: I have always had dogs since I was a baby. I currently have 2 of my own, a 9 year old beagle and a 3 year old doberman who I rescued. I trained my beagle by myself and am doing the same with my doberman. I have worked among amazing dog trainers, pet care workers, and I am shift lead at a boarding facility. I take care of all types and personalities of dogs and cats, from timid and aggressive to in your pocket and loving. I am very comfortable with both. In my free time I am learning grooming, animal health, and animal behavior. I also spend a lot of time outside with my dogs or horses. I currently work at a dog hygienist facility 8-3. Off Wednesday and Sundays, this is when I do all my grooming for my dogs as well as any dogs in my care. During my break at work I may be able to stop by (distance permitting) and also let your pet out. Boarding- I have a fenced in yard where potty breaks are whenever needed when I am home. When not home dogs will be kenneled (if you want) and/or put up in my dog room where camera access is available. When working I am able to let them out during my work break around 12pm. I feed my 2 dogs twice a day (AM & PM) House sitting- Your home my environment flexes towards your pet and what it is comfortable with! I do normally work 8-3 M, T, TH, F, and Saturdays but depending on distance I might be able to let your pets out or care for them during my lunch break on those days.
About: I’ve had cats my whole life and love everything about them! I’ve cared for kittens, adults, seniors, and multiple pet households. I have experience with post-op care, cat introductions, and indoor/outdoor cats. I also have experience taking care of young and senior dogs, including administering medication and interacting with cats. Housesitting - I can’t be there 24 hours a day because I have my own pets, but we can discuss how much I need to be away. I work full time from home, mostly available evenings and weekends, daytime if my schedule allows. I’m a night owl so late night visits are okay! I go at your pet’s pace and provide a safe, loving environment so they gain my trust. I go by their usual routine/ habits as not disrupt their routine.
“She did amazing with our kitty who needed a pill administered while we went out for the night. She was very attentive and even gave us pictures and updates. I would definitely recommend her for watching kitties. 10000/10 thank you so much!!”
About: I grew up with three big dogs and loved every second of it! I am a middle school teacher looking to watch after your pets until I can afford my own! I am a teacher working a summer job from 12:30-4 most weeks until the school year! I am pretty available throughout the day to walk, feed and love your pets! I have countless years of experience in childcare and babysitting (which is helpful with pets as well). My apartment center has a wonderful dog park and I love to go on walks as well!
About: Empathetic and caring towards pets. My first pet was a fish, named Cogi. Since then I've had a gerbil, dog (bichon frise) named Casso, and now have two cats (littermates - part maine coon - Sage & Chowder). I have enjoyed times when I volunteered with child care and senior care facilities in the past as well. Always enjoy spending time with and connecting with pets. Rarely if ever meet any pet I have difficulty connecting with. I'm currently self employed, studying for MO real estate exam & license, and often engaged in other opportunities on the side as well. However, despite my busy schedule at times, I am quite proficient at juggling tasks, maintaining physical & mental health, eating healthy, exercising when possible, and still prioritizing pet care in the midst of it all! I can bring toys, treats, food, litter or anything needed, but am not currently boarding pets at my residence. I will do everything I can to make your pet(s) feel comfortable, clean up after myself and any pet(s), and keep you informed of anything out of the normal.
“She was so kind and thoughtful when caring for our pets! We got plenty of update photos and she reached out of there was even the slightest concern. It was so comforting to know our fur babies were so well loved and cared for while we were away!”
About: Growing up, there was never a time when there wasn’t a dog in the house, and I have been a cat mom for going on five years, so I am very understanding of the care that comes with each animal. Additionally, I have experience with puppies/kittens all the way to senior pets and know that each require personalized care (and I have no problem giving it). As an added bonus, I live with my partner, who also is a dog dad and everyday he gives his dog daily vitamins to stay happy and healthy. Plus he used to work at a wild life rehabilitation center, so he is very familiar with how to care for all animals, regardless of species, age or health. I work a hybrid schedule and currently have every other Friday off so I have plenty of time to care for your best friend. My work also allows employees to bring their dogs to work, if it’s something you’re comfortable with, I would love to show off your doggo! I am available for drop off/pickup anytime on weekends and after 5pm on weekdays. Plus my partner is a graduate student, so he comes home throughout the day to care for his own dog. I have a fenced in yard, so there are no worries when it comes to potty or play. Plus, I live with a very playful dog who can’t wait to spend time with your doggo! I also have a cat who is very tolerant of dogs (she probably won’t play, but doesn’t mind their presence). She is also very comfortable around other cats, she’s a tad shy so another playmate will probably do her some good!
“Sara has been so helpful, communicative and wonderful! She was extra patient with our grumpy old man =) We highly recommend Sara for your pet sitting or drop in needs! Can’t wait to have her back in the future. Thanks Sara!”
“Charnell did an amazing job with our 2 cats! She responded quickly to my messages, sent updates and pictures, and I came home to happy kitties. I would definitely recommend Charnell for your pet care needs!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Parkdale
I had to leave a very skittish cat home while I went away for almost a week, and Tiana did a great job on her visits. I've never tried Rover before now, and I was surprised by how much she was trying to comfort my lil guy while I was gone. I would definitely book her again next time I need a drop-in sitter!

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
