“Molly was a fantastic pet sitter for us while we were on vacation for a week. She took great care of both cats, the high maintenance one and the hider. I would hire her again any time!”
About: Animals have had my heart since day one! ❤️ I’ve grown up surrounded by animals and currently have three beloved pets: Izzy, 8, Cleo, 4, and Lucky, 1½. I also work at an animal hospital, where I’m able to be around animals and learn more about their care. I believe every pet deserves love, patience, attention, and plenty of cuddles! 🐾 I’ll treat your furry family members like my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away! 🐶💕 I currently work full time 3 days a week, 12 hour shifts so I’m available on most of the days I’m not at the hospital working. I’ll care for your pets in the comfort of their own home, keeping their routines consistent with plenty of love, attention, playtime, and cuddles! 🐾❤️
About: I have experience in helping my mom and grandma with their dogs. I truly enjoy caring for them. I love getting outside and playing with them. I currently work 3 days a week at the hospital. I have flexibility to care for pets during the week. I normally have about 4 days a week I could help. Safety is paramount. I always ensure each pet is safe for the duration of their stay with me. I treat each pet as if they’re my own.
About: I provide reliable, loving care tailored to each pet’s needs. Whether it’s playtime, belly rubs, or cozy cuddles, I’ll treat your furry friend like family while you’re away! I am a student so Mondays and Wednesdays I’m more reliable in the early mornings and evenings but I can stop by for a few hours in the afternoons if absolutely necessary. The rest of the week I’m pretty open. I will not be providing care in my own home due to the fact that I currently live in a dorm where pets are not allowed.
“Sending a 🐾🐶 - Taylor wants to thank Quia for giving her a stay@home top notch service. What could be any better then staying@home and enjoying the the best pets care service from the network of Rover.”
“There were some miscommunication and timing issues, but after speaking with Emma, I truly feel she understood the problems and has learned from them. We will be using her again, if she’s willing to book with us!”
About: My love for pets run deep & I have such a soft spot for them. Pets love me, cling to me & become comfortable with me quick. I’ve sitted for family, friends & clients on several occasions. I make sure pets are cared for, looked out for, feel safe, special & shown love during my visit. I’ve also had well taken care of animals of my own since a kid so I’m real familiar with different kind of animals. I’ve cared for many different breeds and ages of animals over the years. I currently work during the night hours so my availability during the day is pretty much open. During the week, I can care for pets between the hours of 9AM-3PM and on weekends between the hours of 8AM-8PM. I keep pets safe by making sure that their outside time is supervised. I make sure the environment is safe and clear of any hazards or dangerous things.
“Eric and Madison are great drop in cat Sitter’s. This is the 4th time they’ve taken care of my fur children and one of them is in heart meds. They are timely and care for my cats great.”
About: I have dropped in and walked so many different dogs. My best case was a dog that needed to be let out and was scared of men. I sat with her for 30 minutes allowing her to get comfortable with me, and by the end of our time together loved seeing me! I am a student teacher and end work everyday at 2:20. I coach volleyball every once in awhile, but it is routine every week and only a couple hours. I can not have any pets in my home. When I go to your home I am very respectful of your privacy. I always give your pet time to get used to me.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover who has grown up with dogs of all sizes and breeds. From tiny puppies to big adventure buddies, I’ve always been the one in charge of walking them, caring for them, and making sure they feel safe and loved. Since I was young, I’ve helped care for family and friends’ dogs, and I’ve gained lots of hands-on experience with puppies along the way. I truly love dogs, and I’d be excited to give yours the same attention and care I give my own! I work part-time Tuesday through Thursday, and I’m usually done by 12 PM, which means I have lots of free time to spend with your pets! 🐾My schedule gives me plenty of flexibility for walks, playtime, potty breaks, cuddles, and making sure your furry friend gets plenty of attention. Outside of work, I love spending time with animals, so pet care fits perfectly into my routine. Whether your pup needs a midday adventure, some company while you’re away, or just someone to spoil them with belly rubs and treats, I’m happy to help! 🐶🐱💛 Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities! 🐾 Since I live in an apartment, I’ll be providing care in your home and taking your pets on walks rather than bringing them to my place. When I’m in your home, I’ll treat it with the same care and respect I would my own. I’ll follow your instructions closely, keep doors and gates securely closed, and make sure your pet stays in a safe and comfortable environment. For walks, I’ll always keep your pet’s safety in mind by using their leash properly, paying attention to our surroundings, and following any special instructions you provide. I also want your pet to feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away, so I’ll take the time to build trust, give them plenty of attention, and make their time with me as happy and stress-free as possible. 🐶🐱💛
About: I’ve been a dog mom to my Golden Retriever, Ellie, since I was 9 years old, caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. Along with raising Ellie, I’ve also helped care for family and friends’ pets over the years, so I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and routines. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet, and I’ll treat your dog like they’re my own. Whether they love long walks, playing outside, or just getting lots of attention, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. As a college student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to caring for pets throughout the week. Outside of class, I have availability for walks, drop in visits, playtime, feeding, and giving pets the attention they deserve. I enjoy being active, so spending time with animals fits naturally into my routine! Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my top priority. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, and I will care for them with the same patience, attention, and love that I give my own dogs. I will always follow your pet’s routine, respect your home, and provide a safe, calm, and caring environment.
About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats most of my life. From training puppies, to caring for older dogs who have needed round the clock medicine and care and everything in between. I have taken care of kittens/cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, lizards, fish, you name your pet and I have probably come into contact with it at some point. I have always wanted to become a veterinarian, but life took me in other directions, so now I show my love and support for the animal community by helping people take care of their fur babies. I am currently working 5 8hr shifts outside the home, but am available for walks, check-ins and other services! I am off by 215 every day so plenty of time in the evenings. My neighborhood is wonderful, I have plenty of nearby parks, as well as, a walking trail directly in my neighborhood. It is a very pet friendly place, with lots of other pets to interact with and also has a dog park. I usually only do healthy treats for training, but obviously will cater to whatever schedule or routine your animal needs.
About: I have grown up with pets all my life. I have goats, cats, and dogs. I pet sit for my family friends when they need me to. I have walked, fed, bathe, and played with many animals. I am currently not working, so I have a lot of time to tend to your pets needs! Everyday but Monday’s bd Wednesdays work best! I will follow any guidelines for your pets that you give me. I can crate you dog if needed. However, I do have animals at my house
About: I've been the go-to person to take care of friends pets when they've been travelling! I have experience with providing medication (oral) in addition to working with seniors and puppies. I work a full-time job (M-F) that includes remote work and flexibility when needed. Let me know what works best for you and I'll work to accommodate your needs. We have a fenced in yard and a new puppy that enjoys romping with furry friends. We also have an 9 year old that loves all animals and is looking forward to helping provide the best care!
About: I have trained puppies, designed programs to solve behavior problems in adult dogs, cared for senior dogs, specializing in multi-dog households with a mix of all the above. I am currently designing software for a start-up idea so my schedule is very flexible. Ideal hours for day visits are between 8am - 9pm, overnight from 7pm - 9am “ish” and always available for emergencies. Different pets have different wants/needs so I will adapt my gameplan accordingly. Each visit will include some form of exercise, training and lots of love. My yard is fenced and my house is puppy-proofed. Lots of soft and shaded places to nap, inside and out. I use pest control and landscaping services so the yard is virtually free of stinging or biting insects and dangerous weeds or flowers. Clients can expect me to care for their pets and their property with utmost respect for house rules, privacy and courtesy.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Saint Charles
Cara and her children come visit my chihuahua and 6 month old Great Pyrennes while I work. They are doing a great job, petting and playing with them like they are their own pups! They have even been able to get the Chihuahua to eat all of her kibble, not just her favorite bits.
Holli is and will continue to be our "go-to" for drop-ins. She's prompt, always provides feedback, and takes wonderful care of our pets. When we're out and Holli is doing our drop-in visits, we can relax and enjoy ourselves knowing our dogs are in good hands. She gets five stars only because there aren't any more available!!
Absolutely great! Super friendly, understanding, flexible and the cutest fur baby! So grateful to have had her and making this vacation less stressful for us as we've never had a dog sitter before. The pictures were the best addition as well, thanks a million! Will ask for you again and recommend you highly by name.
Christina and her mom were great with our dog, Kiwi. Kiwi is a rescue that we have had for a couple of years. She loves my daughter and I dearly, and she is hesitant with other people. Christina and her mom had Kiwi convinced in no time that they were the best! I loved getting pics and status updates. Kiwi will ask for this duo again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Saint Charles is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $27 per visit. 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 2,591 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Saint Charles. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Saint Charles choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Saint Charles with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
