“I felt like my fur babies had a great vacation where they were welcomed into the family. I love that the sitter worked from home so that my dogs could go outside anytime they needed. I felt my pets were safe and well taken care of with the sitter.”
“Leslie was incredible! It was a last minute booking and she was so thoughtful during our meet and greet. And Lily adjusted so quickly to her. Peanut, Leslie’s dog, is also just the sweetest. I was kept updated throughout my trip and knew Lily was in the best of hands! We’ll definitely be booking again.”
“We appreciated Nana taking on Mowgli for a few days. She always kept us updated and welcomed Mowgli to her home. I appreciated the pictures and detailed updates throughout his stay. Mowgli was very happy since he got to play a lot and was very well taken care of.”
“A big thank you to Dustin + fam for taking great care of our Jax! We felt so safe leaving our pup for an overnight with such a welcoming family who provided updates, prompt responses, and great care. Jax came home happy and TIRED and will definitely be back to visit!”
“Timmy was comfortable and well cared for while he was with Leslie. She has a wonderful park-like environment right out her front door and two cheerful, good natured cockers to make Timmy feel right at home. He is 14 years old and nearing the end of his life, and he did well while we were gone because of Leslie's big heart and service. She loves dogs, young or old, it is easy to see.”
“Mary was great with my little terrier mix, who typically needs some time to warm up to new people. She gave him his space, and a few hours later…they were friends! She also communicated well and gave a daily update with photo, which I appreciated. Will definitely use her again.”
“She was amazing with my fur baby! They connected instantly and she made sure to send me updates which was helpful and greatly appreciated. I will definitely book with them again in the future 🩵”
“Katie is the absolute best! She was Dolly's foster mom and her dog Eva is super sweet. Dolly always comes home happy and tired. She truly treats her like she's one of her own.”
“Sarah is the best! She took such great care of my pup while I was on vacation and was super understanding and accommodating when flights delays got me home a day late. Thank you Sarah!”
“Jenna is amazing, She sent me pictures and updates on my baby.So I would always know that he was in good hands and when I picked him up.I don't think he wanted to come home.He wanted to stay!! Lol. We'll definitely rebook with her!”
“I was so pleased with Jennifer, Sharon& Scott! I had to go out of town for a week and 2 of my cats need to be given medicine. They were able to take care of that, and they sent me twice daily detailed notes and videos and pics. It made it so much easier to be away from my kitties. I will definitely use their services again!”
“Marie was a life saver to agree to take our aging pug for his first stay with only 24 hours notice. She was kind, flexible, accommodating and understanding. She has young kids who welcomed Napoleon at the car door and were so excited to have a "pudgy puggie" to play with. He LOVED the attention and care. Upon pick up he was packed and ready to go -- super efficient sendoff. It made me feel so much better to leave my much loved dog in their care. I rebooked Marie for another stay as soon as I got home. A++.”
“She was amazing, sweet, & great with Marley! She made sure to walk Marley everyday which is his favorite thing to do & she also made sure she walked him before it got too hot which I really appreciate! 10/10 would recommend her to anyone!”
“We were a little nervous because we hadn’t boarded our oldest, Spark Plug, with a stranger before. But Jennifer’s house was the perfect place for him while we were gone. From the many photos, videos and written updates that we received (and very much appreciated), it looks like both of our dogs had a blast playing in Jennifer’s backyard and napping on her couch. Jennifer’s confidence and easy going attitude also helped put us at ease when we dropped our dogs off at the beginning of our vacation. Thank you!”
“Shaina and Imogen were great! We had a last minute booking and she was super accommodating. Finley loved her time over there! Will definitely be booking with her in the future!”
“Lucy was great! Excellent communication both before and during our dog’s stay. We highly recommend Lucy to anyone looking for a nice and comfortable place to stay in St. Louis.”
“Nicole and Tim were great sitters! They were flexible, very quick to respond, and their home was very clean. They took great care of Quinn and I know she had a great time with them.”
“Reba was wonderful with our 7-month old puppy! She made sure he had plenty of play opportunities and kept us updated with pictures throughout the weekend. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Richmond Heights
Julia was absolutely wonderful with our dogs while we were out of state for the week. From the start, she was friendly, communicative, and incredibly responsive, which made it so much easier to relax and enjoy our trip. She kept us updated regularly and was always quick to answer any questions. Most importantly, we could tell our dogs were happy, comfortable, and well cared for in her hands. It’s such a relief to find someone you can trust with your pets, and Julia exceeded our expectations. We are so grateful for the care she provided and would not hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend!
We used Hailie for the first time that we spent a night away from our puppy and highly recommend her to anyone else looking! She took the time to get to know us ahead of time and tailored his stay based on his personality. She was very attentive to him and ensured that he was comfortable in her home. He’s still under a year old, so he’s got plenty of energy to spare. Hailie kept him busy with playtime and sent us lots of pictures and videos to keep us updated. We look forward to using her again in the near future!
Lesley was a true blessing when we were frantically looking for a sitter last minute. It was our time using Rover and first time using a non-family member to watch Asher so we were very anxious! From meet-and-greet and communication while Asher was with her, to his tail waging goodbye at pickup, we’re grateful to Lesley (and her pups) for welcoming him.
Stella had an amazing time with Ashlie and Phillip! They are very comfortable with large dogs and made me feel so at ease leaving my pet in their care. Their home is perfect with a fenced in backyard and the entire family is used to having dogs around. I received picture/updates and had a wonderful experience! I will definitely be using Ashlie and Phillip in the future!
Fatima was great and I could tell Piper had an excellent time once she settled. Although it was a short stay (1 night) I could tell she really cared about her experience as she made sure to do all of pipers favorite things, cuddles and bones. Would absolutely use again in the future since Piper seemed right at home

Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
91% of Richmond Heights sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Richmond Heights landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Richmond Heights 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 Richmond Heights.
Tip: 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 Richmond Heights 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.
