“My dogs absolutely love her and Snicker. She has the perfect yard for them to roam around with no tick or flea. Teresa watched them like a hawk making sure they don't eat anything in the yard they're not supposed to. She gives us update throughout the boarding time. She will be my default whenever we need to board our dogs going out of town.”
“Beth was a perfect fit for us! Turq warmed right up to her and they really seemed to match each other's energy. We got plenty of updates which assured us he was comfortable and happy, which we loved. We will absolutely be booking again!”
“Brandon was great, treated Miles & Molly like his own, also sent daily communication and pictures, which made it much easier to relax and enjoy our vacation in the Dominican. Both dogs came home played out, in fact theyre still sleeping. We'll definitely use him again in 3 months, when we're thinking about traveling again.”
“I highly recommend Sonya and her family for pet sitting! I recently left my dog, Macario, with them while I was away camping for several days, and they took excellent care of him. It was clear from the updates and photos that he was comfortable, well-loved, and treated like part of the family. When I picked him up, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly had a great stay. They were easy to communicate with, responsive, and genuinely cared about making sure both Macario and I felt comfortable throughout the experience. As a dog mom, having peace of mind while you're away is priceless, and that's exactly what they provided. I'll definitely be using them again in the future. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of Macario!”
“Leah was great! She took my dog in last minute and took amazing care of him! She made sure she knew exactly how to care for him and was very accommodating on caring for him a little longer than anticipated due to my traveling delays!”
“Excellent care for our doggo as always. They are always flexible and helpful! Bryan sends lots of photos which is especially reassuring for my youngest kid. Thank you!”
“Francie took good care of our dogs while we were on vacation. She was very flexible with drop off and pick up time and agreed to extend the stay when we needed it. Thank you Francie!”
“What can I say? We’d be simply lost without Dwight and Linda. The pups are SO excited to visit and sad to leave them. Thank you both so much for being incredible human beings.”
About: I have dogs of my own & have taken care of our family dogs while their parents are away as well. We can do any medications if needed. They will have a fun, relaxing time while you’re away! We are home all day and have access to a doggy door/fenced yard to run/potty as well. We have experience with sick, old, puppies, & anyone needing that extra love & attention. We are home full time and have access to play/ take walks during morning/afternoon/evening if you’d like. We have 3 smaller dogs ( 2 French bulldogs/1 miniature pinscher) who are always welcome to new friends to play with. We have a doggy door that exits out to our fenced in yard. We are home all day. Dogs are welcome to hang on our couch or any blanket/doggy bed that they’d choose. We have our own 3 smaller dogs to play with as well (2 french bull dogs/ 1 miniature pincher). We’d feed dogs according to their schedule.
“I think if my dog had a choice, he may have chosen to stay for good! He was happy and SO well taken care of. There was more than enough good communication and pictures to assure us he was having a blast and loving life which made our time away even more relaxing. We will definitely be using this sweet family for boarding again! 👏✨️”
“Camille was absolutely wonderful with my dog, Luna. I truly appreciated how flexible and accommodating she was throughout the entire experience. Initially, we had planned for dog boarding, but when that didn’t work out, Camille quickly adapted and switched to in-home visits. She even made an effort to try crate options beforehand, which showed how committed she was to finding the best solution for Luna. This was a last-minute booking, and Camille was incredibly understanding—even adjusting the dates just one day before the scheduled drop-off. Her flexibility really helped reduce a lot of stress. During her visits, she kept me updated by sending videos and clearly spent quality time playing with Luna. It was very reassuring to see how happy and well cared for Luna was in her hands. Overall, Camille went above and beyond, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and flexible pet sitter.”
About: After nearly 15 years of caring for my own beloved small dog through every stage of life, I understand how important it is to know your dog is safe, comfortable, and genuinely loved while you’re away. I have extensive hands-on experience with small and senior dogs, as well as shy/nervous dogs, including medication routines, special needs, changing mobility levels, and dogs who simply need a little extra patience and attention. I’m especially interested in providing a calm, home-like environment rather than a busy kennel experience. My goal is to care for your dog like they’re temporarily part of my family — with plenty of attention, cuddles, walks, and time to relax. I prefer caring for one dog at a time so they receive lots of individual attention. Note - at this time I can only accept hypoallergenic or low shedding breeds that are under 40 pounds and are very comfortable walking on a leash. I work from home but I’m selective with my availability and only open my calendar when I know I can give your dog plenty of time and attention. I enjoy having a dog around the house and will make sure they get lots of companionship, walks, playtime, cuddles and downtime based on their normal routine. I prefer to care for one household’s dog at a time so they can feel comfortable and get plenty of individual attention. I’ll follow your dog’s normal feeding, walking, medication and bedtime routines as closely as possible. I’m especially comfortable with small and senior dogs and understand that some pets need a little extra patience, supervision and TLC. I live on a small, quiet cul-de-sac but please note, I do not have a fenced in yard, so dogs must be very comfortable walking on a leash.
“Kelly took wonderful care of my dog, Jeze, and I couldn’t be more grateful! Jeze can be a bit particular about eating but Kelly went above and beyond and hand fed her. Kelly was patient, attentive, and clearly experienced with animals. She kept me updated with photos and messages, and it was obvious that Jeze was happy and comfortable. I had total peace of mind while I was away, and I would absolutely trust Kelly again. Highly recommend!”
“They were so sweet and welcoming of our dogs as new friends! Very easy to communicate with and sent pictures while we traveled which was amazing! Absolutely will book again.”
“Lindsey took great care of my pup! She watched her for over a week and made sure my dog was happy. Lindsey took her for a few walks, fed her, and made sure she felt right at home. I wouldn't hesitate to have Lindsey watch my dog again!”
“Excellent all around from pre-stay communication to keeping our pup happy with exercise and attention during the stay, plus great pictures as well. It was very important and relieving to know our pup was in great hands while we were away.”
“Kenneth was wonderful and helped us out in a pinch. Poppy had so much fun playing with their dog that she didn’t want to leave. We know that she was well taken care of and we’ll certainly call Kenneth again.”
“I can’t say enough about Amy and family and how well she cared for our pup while we were away. She was sure to familiarize herself with Junie’s commands, daily schedule and routine all to make sure she was comfortable without us. Communication was great with daily updates and pics, including things she knew I would be worried about (like how she slept the first night)! Junie was well loved and well taken care of while we were gone. We will definitely contact Amy again for any Rover needs in the future!”

Ashley & Alex took excellent care of our two pups while we were traveling! They were very communicative throughout our trip and sent us daily photos and updates, which gave us such peace of mind. Our pups clearly received lots of love, attention, and extra treats—it was truly a mini vacation for them too! We highly recommend Ashley & Alex and will definitely be using them again for our future trips!
Katie was great! I had a flight mishap and my other dog sitter couldn’t watch my dog any longer while I was out of the country due to a prior commitment she had. However, I reached out to Katie and she was able to pick up my dog from the other sitter and watch her. Her communication was great and it helped so much while navigating a stressful situation. Outside of that she did great with Bailey and provided daily updates. Thank you Katie!
Mckenna was amazing. I have never boarded my dog before, she invited me to a meet and greet few days prior to the appointment giving me assurances. Proceeded to send me pictures and updates everyday. My dog was super super excited and happy, which is all I'm looking for. Good experience overall.
Amelia was fantastic! She had us do a "meet and greet" prior to dropping off our fur baby and made us feel totally comfortable leaving Katie with her. Katie had her own "private" bedroom" and enjoyed the company of Amelia's dog, Ozzie. The fenced in back yard was really nice and Katie enjoyed playing and running outside. I would highly recommend Amelia!!!!
My German Shepherd was cared for and loved on the whole time she was in Nuriya’s care. I got updates throughout Eris’ stay. I was worried my dog was not going to handle staying at someone else’s home very well, while I was out of town, but she did amazing. Eris was spoiled and was living in luxury as she deserved. I will book again the next time I need the service.

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Saint Charles is $37 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $53 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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.
94% of sitters in Saint Charles can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Saint Charles home-away-from-home, 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 Saint Charles.
<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 Saint Charles 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 , 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 .
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.
