“Genesis did an amazing job with our dog, Ody! He went on walks, visited the dog park and got a lot of exercise! Genesis went above and beyond, with updates, videos, photos and even a bath after Ody got muddy! I highly recommend”
“Brittany and family take such wonderful care of Rose! I really appreciate frequent photos of the dogs playing together and comments about how well Rose is doing. Rose returns home a totally happy and relaxed dog. Best dog sitter I’ve ever had!!”
“This was our first time leaving our dog for an extended period of time and he had a wonderful time! Tory took care of him as if he were her own dog and sent us multiple updates throughout the day to give us peace of mind! I highly recommend her as she is very knowledgeable, caring, and clearly knows what she is doing.”
“Weenie had a wonderful time with Juneall and her husband! He will definitely be staying there again if I have to go out of town. They were really gracious and even took him last minute. Thanks guys!”
“Joseph was very patient with River and had a kind and compassionate attitude. River can be an anxious pup, but he made her feel right at home. We will definitely use him again!”
“Connie did a wonderful job with our Jade and Diamond.. this was our first time using Rover for our 2 little babies and she provided awesome service and communication daily with pictures in the am and evening which we appreciated so much. These two are definitely our only babies so we were happy they were in best of care. I love they were her ONLY guests. Her big baby was their nanny Gully and helped keep a great eye on them as well. Thanks again Connie and Gully!!?”
“Daniel did an absolutely fantastic job watching my two dogs Quinn (a senior dog) and Phineas (a puppy). He provided the perfect amount of communication and sent some really great pictures while we were away. I was thoroughly impressed by his level of care and would love to book with him again. Highly recommend!”
“Lauren and Kyle were AMAZING hosts for our pups Uma! We received multiple updates everyday, along with photos. She was very responsive and helped put our minds at ease while we were on vacation. Additionally, Lauren is a phenomenal photographer and was able to take studio portraits of Uma during her stay. 10/10 recommend! We’ll be coming back again!”
About: I’m a dog person. I love them, and they love me. I’ve have had dogs all my life. Im retired and I travel, and it just became too expensive to take care of my own dog. I thought about fostering dogs, but knew I would end up wanting to keep them. This seemed like the perfect answer…I love to walk, and walk all over the city… so just combining my two loves… walking and dogs. Im retired, but very active, and completely flexible to accommodate your schedule. I volunteer at the Kauffman Performing Arts Center. Caring for pets and the Kauffman Center are my primary obligations. I’m in an apartment, so we would take walks. I would quickly get to know their personality. I would play and be affectionate with your dog.
“First time boarding and was very nervous but Angela was amazing and totally reassured me!!! she took wonderful care of my kitty and sent me little texts and pictures throughout the stay! would 100% book again and would definitely recommend her!”
“I can't thank Gail and Dog Vacay enough!! Right from the meet and greet I knew I had picked the best. Our 12 year old Aussie/Collie mix Sydney felt so at home immediately. Gail's comfortable home let Sydney keep up with her daily pastimes: sleeping on the sofa and looking out the window! :) Sydney takes daily meds which were administered with no problem. Gail sent updates and even pictures to us that made my vacation more relaxed too. Gail's other little border gave Sydney a fun friend. I'm not sure Sydney wanted us to come home! Gail is a teriffic lady and was a great surrogate mom for Sydney. Thanks again- Christine B.”
“Christopher was responsive, caring, and informative throughout the entire 3 weeks he cared for Oscar. He supported our training goals by sustaining the rules and commands that we already use for our puppy. Drop off and pick up was easy and convenient.”
About: Had dogs and cats my whole life. I have had as small of a dog as tea cup chihuahua and as big of a dog as a German shepherd and Great Pyrenees mix. Love cats too but honestly I'm more of a dog person. I have cat sit for friends and family before and happy to do that to!! I work full time in the operating room 7a-5:30p, except for Wednesdays and weeekends. I have two boys aged (age 3 and 5) every other weekend. Currently no pets but we've had dogs and the boys do well with small and big dogs alike. They loveeee cats. I let animals on my furniture, provide lots of snuggles, back/belly rubs, fetch, walks outside and happy to let off leash trained dogs roam in my backyard depending on the owners preferences and how well behaved the dog is. Happy to follow whatever schedule you need for you fur baby.
“Victoria is amazing with my senior girl! She gives her meds she even went and got her food for me last time when I had forgotten it. I had a flight to catch and dint have time. Ava gets excited to go hang out with her friends. Victoria’s kids love Ava too they are so sweet. I’m so glad I met Victoria and her family 😊”
About: I’m a fur mama of 4 beautiful babies! I’ve had a dog/pets since I was a toddler. I love all animals. They’re honest, loyal and good, thru and thru. I was a professional dog bather at my part time job after my long career at Lake City Army Ammunition Plant. All animals love me, some take a second to warm up, but I love earning their trust. My main girl that passed last June I wear in an urn necklace right next to the charm with my own mother’s ashes. I have so many stickers on my truck of my babies and anything fur baby related. One says, abuse an animal, go to jail. I couldn’t agree more, unless there’s a harsher punishment available, then I choose that. Animals are my life. Anything I can do for any animal in need, I’m doing it. And doing it with love. With that, I give you my word. Pet care IS my life. At work. Definitely at home with our 5 fur babies, and if I see a baby in need, I jump at the chance to help. Pet care is an honor and it brings me so much happiness and joy in my heart. Honestly, I wait on them hand and foot, and I love it. Any need, any time, I’m on it! And nothing could make me happier. I live to love and care for them. And I do it well. It’s my gift.

I felt that Naji cared for my 16 year old terrier and all her little quirks as if she were her own dog. I could tell that Sally loved her to pieces and will be happy to see her again next stay. Its been years since I could say that about a sitter, and will never again kennel her, especially at this age.
Rebecca did a phenomenal job both caring for Gancho and communicating with us. We knew exactly how he was doing and what she was doing to help when he was having a hard time. It is the benefit of having a trainer watch your dog. She understands them so well and what they need to thrive. 100% will use her again and have already passed her information along to friends.
Our Yorkie, Bailey isn't easy, as she doesn't like other people, other pets, and other homes - she's spoiled. But she took to Nicole and her small fur babies, who were nice to her. Thankfully, Bailey has her new home away from home and we are booking Nicole for our vacation next month.
We had an excellent experience! Communication was fantastic from start to finish, and we really appreciated all the pictures and regular updates on Cocoa & Scout. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We could tell they were in great hands, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book again. Highly recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Our Remi had the best time with Sylveena and her family. We received so many pictures, updates and notes throughout the days we were gone, it was so appreciated. She even kept a mindful watch over her time outside due to the intense heat we’re experiencing. It’s obvious that Sylveena loves animals and we are so happy to have found her!
This was the first time we used this app, and we were a little worried about leaving our small dog with someone we didn’t know. But the moment I saw Derrika’s smile in her photo, I knew she was the right person. Even before the drop-off, I was still a bit nervous, but as soon as Derika met us, all the stress disappeared. She welcomed us so warmly, with a huge smile and genuine happiness in her eyes. Taya went into the house with her without even looking back at us 😂 We’re extremely happy with the experience and highly recommend her ❤️
Hammy did great in Erin’s care! Erin was attentive to his needs and comforted him when he got anxious. She provided regular updates and photos, allowing me to focus on work instead of worrying about Hammy! Hammy was able to make a new furry friend who coincidentally looked like he could be his brother 😂 and also socialize with other friendly neighborhood folks. Erin was flexible with my last minute booking, offering quick responses, and accommodated a necessary shift in pick-up/drop off time based upon my travel itinerary. I definitely recommend Erin and will seek to book with her again during future work trips!

Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
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.
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 Meet & Greet.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
