“Highly recommend! Our shih tzu is adopted from a puppy mill and is a little quirky. He loved Mary and we could tell she took the time to get to know him and make him comfortable! Charlie had a great vacation at Mary’s!”
“Laronna has been taking care of our pups for a while now and she is amazing! Our dog absolutely loves her place and is happy each time we drop her off at Laronna’s place!”
“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.”
“Tilly was so loved and cared for, I wasn't sure she'd want to come back home with me! I was so appreciative of the communication with updated photos and videos; I'm also grated for helps with behavior modifications since my dog is a foster and still learning the ropes. Highly recommended!”
“I can’t thank Caitlin and Adam enough for how they took care of our 9 month puppy for two weeks!! I was anxious to be gone that long from him, but their set up was perfect and Caitlin’s communication was so great. We were able to relax and fully enjoy our trip knowing our pup was in capable and caring hands. Thank you SO much!!”
“Katie was phenomenal and loved our Taz as if he was her own! We got lots of photos and updates and reassurance that he was adjusting well to his long stay with her. I definitely recommend Katie and will be rebooking!”
“Francie, thank you so much for the care that you gave my 3 boys. They were so happy with you and that gave me such peace while being away. I highly recommend you Francie, and I’m thankful to know I have you to rely on when needed. 🐶🐩💕Rachele”
“Raina is fantastic with our two doodles. They very obviously have fun and come home happy but tired. This was our second booking with Raina. We will definitely book with her again. She is so great at sending little videos and pics of the dogs having fun. That helps when you miss your dogs, and it helps you know they're doing well so you can focus on whatever you are doing that caused you to need a dog sitter!”
“Archie had a fantastic time at Kelsey’s! He’s a Frenchie so he fit right in with Kelsey’s dogs and was one of the pack. He had a ton of play time and cuddle time and didn’t want to leave! I would gladly have Kelsey care for Archie again.”
“Shari provided a wonderful environment and loving care for our dog, Poppy. Poppy was relaxed at her home and excited to see Shari the second time we booked her. She sent us cute photos and updates and made us feel that Poppy was in the best hands. We will definitely book Shari again!”
About: I've spent much of my life living with and caring for dogs--from growing up with dogs throughout childhood, to helping care for dogs as an adult, to having Spencer, my most recent dog. I don't currently have pets of my own, which means visiting dogs get my full attention and don't have to adjust to unfamiliar resident animals. I genuinely miss having a dog around! I work from home and love the idea of giving someone's dog a cozy, low-stress place to stay while their humans are away. I intentionally accept dogs from only one household at a time, so I'm able to get to know their routine, personality, and quirks and make sure they get lots of individual attention. I have a dog door that suits a large dog and a fenced-in backyard in beautiful Southwest Garden, across from The Hill. I'm comfortable following detailed feeding and medication instructions and am happy to care for senior dogs. I'm currently focusing on friendly, reliably housetrained adult small and medium dogs that I can comfortably handle on leash. I prefer a meet-and-greet before a first stay so that both the dog and I can ensure we're comfortable together. And I love sending photos and updates! Getting pictures of Spencer when I traveled always made me happy, so I'm delighted to do the same for you. I work from home Monday through Friday from 9am-6pm, so I’m home much of the day and can easily fit walks, playtime, meals, potty breaks, and plenty of attention into my routine. I live on a quiet, tree-lined street with sidewalks and no through traffic, just ten houses from Sublette Park. I love walking the perimeter of the park, so dogs who enjoy walks will have plenty of opportunities to get out and "sniff the puppy newspaper." I’m happy to take dogs for several walks a day depending on their normal routine and energy level. I do leave the house for errands and activities, so dogs should be comfortable relaxing at home alone for a few hours at a time. I have a quiet, dog-friendly home with no resident pets, and I only host dogs from one household at a time. I have a large, fully fenced privacy backyard for supervised play and potty breaks, plus a dog door that can be closed and locked when needed. Dogs are welcome to relax on my large couch, which is always covered with waterproof pet blankets. At night, dogs can sleep in their own crate in my downstairs den, on the couch, or--if they’re well behaved without a crate--on a dog bed in my bedroom. I don’t provide a crate, so owners should bring one if their dog needs it. I prefer to meet new dogs before their first stay so I can learn their routine and make sure I can handle them comfortably and safely. I’m currently best suited for friendly, reliably housetrained adult dogs who aren’t strong pullers, destructive chewers, or determined escape artists.
“We had such a great experience having our dog stay with Christine and David! They communicated with us every day and sent lots of updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was so fun seeing Cuba playing and having such a great time with their dog. It was clear that Cuba was having a blast. You can tell they truly care about the dogs they watch and treat them like their own. We came home to a very happy pup! We’ll definitely be booking with them again and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a thoughtful and reliable sitter. Thank you so much Christine & David (and Dory!)”
“we booked at the last min and the availability was open she responded quickly very friendly our Ziggy had a blast we was a little late picking him up and they was very understanding! We will most definitely be reaching out again!Thanks again!”
“This was the third time Karen has taken care of my pup and I was very happy with her service. She sent many pictures and videos, assuring me that McKenzie was well taken care of and content on her "vacation". Karen was even able to watch McKenzie two extra days when my return was delayed. Yay, Karen! Highly recommended!”
“I was a little worried because I was leaving my baby for the first time with Adolfo and I didn't know how he would react to other dogs. But watching the photos and videos, he had a lot of fun. It was a good experience and Adolfo took very good care of my baby. 100% recommended, I will surely return with him.”
“I recently had the pleasure of entrusting my beloved Shih Tzu, Miki, to the exceptional care of Mandi. From start to finish, Mandi's genuine love for animals made me feel immediately at ease. Mandi's dedication to providing the best possible care for pets is truly commendable. I was particularly impressed by the ramp she built, allowing dogs to climb into her bed. This thoughtful addition showcases her commitment to accommodating furry friends and ensuring their utmost comfort. Mandi also introduced Miki to her own adorable dog, Odie. The chemistry between them was incredible! Watching Miki and Odie play and bond was so adorable. Mandi's took the time to understand Miki's unique needs, ensuring that she received personalized care and attention. I felt at ease knowing that Mandi was looking after Miki, and it allowed me to fully enjoy my time away. I am thrilled to have found such an exceptional pet sitter, and I can confidently say that I will be using Mandi's services again in the future. Her passion for animals shines through in everything she does, and it is evident that she treats each pet as if they were her own. If you're in need of a pet sitter who goes above and beyond, I wholeheartedly recommend Mandi. She is a true gem, and I am grateful for the peace of mind she provided during my absence. Thank you, Mandi, for your outstanding care and dedication to Miki. You have earned my highest recommendation, and I wish you continued success in your pet-sitting endeavors.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Richmond Heights
They were absolutely amazing at taking care of my cat and kept me updated throughout my time away, which gave me so much peace of mind. I really appreciated how responsive, reliable, and punctual they were. Overall, they made the entire experience incredibly easy and stress-free. I would definitely recommend them!
Julia was wonderful with Banks and Heber! She took great care of them for several days and nights, kept us updated throughout their stay, and sent us lots of cute pictures. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were happy and well cared for. We would absolutely recommend Julia and will definitely use her again!
Ashlie and Phillip were great and we could tell Max did well. He’s on several medications and that didn’t seem to be a difficult thing for them to handle.. Max got plenty of exercise (play) and love from their entire family. Communication with photos was excellent and despite this being our first time with them, we were more than pleased and know Max will be visiting them again!
Shari provided a wonderful environment and loving care for our dog, Poppy. Poppy was relaxed at her home and excited to see Shari the second time we booked her. She sent us cute photos and updates and made us feel that Poppy was in the best hands. We will definitely book Shari again!
Maddy our little dog was happily & lovingly greeted at drop off. Also, she appeared in good spirits on pick up. Marie was very nice, as were her children. We found Marie to be communicative and quick to respond to our texts. We did not receive any pictures, perhaps because it was a relatively short overnight. We would definitely use Marie’s for Maddy again.
Isa is great!! So friendly, and attentive and loving with my dog. I know Lily was well-taken care of and had a good time. I could tell immediately when I picked up my dog that she had bonded with Isa and her friend. Plus she got Lily to eat while I was gone, so that's an accomplishment! I will definitely want to use Isa again for future boarding.
Gabrielle accepted my late request and went above and beyond to care for my little guy. My cat seemed very comfortable and happy in her space and she was very attentive to him and his needs. She watched him for me when he needed medicine administered twice daily and extra special attention which he got. I’m so grateful to have found her on Rover! Will definitely reach out to her again if I need a sitter.

There are 1,120 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Richmond Heights. About 93% of Richmond Heights sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes.

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 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 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.
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.
