“Wonderful again! We have used Lindsay's service multiple times now. We are perfectly comfortable that our pets are well cared for while we travel. Don't have to give them a second thought. Thank you!!!”
“Taylor was soo sweet and attentive to our kitty while we were gone. She was great at communicating any schedule changes and left a detailed review of her visits, along with some cute pictures of our cat. I would definitely recommend her for your future pet-sitter needs!”
“Kayla is incredibly reliable, helpful & kind. My dog Annabelle loves when Kayla comes to care for her and I am always so grateful for her consistency and dependability! Kayla has done many drop-ins for Annabelle for nearly a year and I recommend her highly.”
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats since I was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. Growing up I had cats and dogs and was the main caretaker for my families animals. I'm currently working part-time between 2-8 pm so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available for boarding on weekends, and weekdays. I will keep up to date if I have work or/and a event I have to go to if it interferes with our plans. Prefer not to do my home because my 3 dogs are skittish and can intimidate your pets. For my pets safety and yours, I refuse to offer services at my home.
About: I have been a poodle pet owner for 6 years and a lover of all dogs since I was born! I am also a mom of 4 teenagers and 7 chickens and am used to caring for lots of needs. I personally loved rehabbing my own dog who was an abused breeder female. I built confidence through slow trust and lots of love. I also groom her on my own and have groomed several other dogs as well (for fun). I definitely have a knack for animals and kids, in fact, I was a high school choir teacher because of my passion to help and care for others. Now I find myself as a homeschooling mom with open hours to love on my own kids and your furry family member! Taking walks with dogs is the beginning of building trust and confidence. I would LOVE to get to know your furry family member! I am currently a homeschooling mom of teenagers and also work at my church very part time. I have the ability to come let dogs out or take them for a walk. If your dog is a hypoallergenic breed, I could watch them at my house. I have one fur baby that could come keep your dog company only if desired, and animal loving teens that may tag along sometimes. I follow directions well and will make sure your pet’s needs are tended to in a loving and gentle way.
“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.”
About: I’ve lived in a home with three or more pets for my entire life, so caring for animals has always been second nature to me. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to sweet senior companions, and I understand that every pet has their own unique personality and needs. I also worked at a 24-hour emergency animal hospital for over a year, where I gained hands-on experience caring for animals in a fast-paced clinical setting. I’m currently in school to become a credentialed veterinary technician, which has expanded my knowledge of animal health, behavior, and compassionate patient care. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priorities while they’re in my care. I am currently in-between jobs, but actively in school through Penn foster so I have a relatively open a flexible schedule with proper notification ahead of time! I currently take lewie on walks fo outdoor enrichment ant local parks or we play fetch in the house! We do monitored potty breaks in the back yard. Sadly I will not be able to bring your pet to my home as I have a very reserved shy little guy here who isn’t too kind to others and doesn’t adjust well, but I will be glad to care for your fur baby at your home!
About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats since I was 10 years old. Neighbors always looked to me as a trustworthy caretaker. Even when I moved to a new state on my own, I was able to build a consistent clientele that could always count on me. I worked at a dog daycare/boarding center for 3 years, became certified to groom dogs, done baths, nails, walks, and stayed at people’s homes (including boats)! I am currently working on training my own dog. I begin my work day early in the morning and am done by 11:30am or 1pm, which leaves lots of time to care for your pet! My days off are Friday/Saturday and only work for 3 hours Sunday morning. I cannot take in your pet at my home, as I have my own furry friend who strongly values his personal space. At your home, I can do whatever is needed!
About: Hello! I have grown up around dogs my whole life! From a Shih Tzu to a Boxer to my newly adopted puppy, a Labrador Retriever/Great Pyrenees mix, Goose! I just finished getting my degree in Public Health at Lindenwood University, and I am returning back to school in the fall, so I am looking for a job for over the summer! My weekly routine consists of taking care of my dog, Goose, and spending time with family and friends! I pay close attention to detail so I will make sure your pup is taken care of in the way that you best see fit!
“Aubrey was awesome!! She did a meet-and-greet with my lil guy, got all his little quirks and needs down, and took great care of him!! I also was in need of a sitter last-minute and she was very quick to respond, so she was a great find :)”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a kid, and know how important our furry members of the family are! I will go above and beyond to give you peace of mind while you’re away from your companion. I’m currently taking a few gap months before starting my next job, so I will have plenty of time to care for your pet throughout the week. I am very responsible and will follow any specific instructions you have thoroughly. Protecting your pet and your home are my number one priority when pet sitting.
“We will absolutely use Angela again next time we go out of town and can’t take our pups! She was very communicative with each visit and we really appreciated that after our last time using a different person that left us worried. Our dogs took to her (and her sons!) right away and seemed to have fun playing on their visits. Thanks again 😊”
“Greta was great with our pups! We got pictures and updates everyday and always felt like they were in good hands with her. We would recommend Greta to anyone and will definitely be using her again for future trips.”
“Tara was exactly what we needed in every way! She filled in when we were cancelled on with short notice before a very important trip, she communicated and showed up promptly to the messages, meet and greet, and every visit. It was so lovely to see my usually shy to strangers rescue boy fall in love with her so quickly. Tara sent detailed and heartfelt messages along with her photos of what our dogs were up to and how they were doing each time and we genuinely looked forward to them. It had us at ease while away and that was such a blessing. I highly recommend her and would love to book her again 😊”
About: Between having pets of my own and caring for family and friends pets, I’ll treat yours like my own! I grew up with dogs and cats. I currently have two cats of my own! As of now, my availability is open for all days and times for animal care. I am wanting to fill up my pet sitting calendar! As I have cats of my own, I do not offer care in my home. But I can do occasional over nights in yours if needed! I am very respectful of your area and am happy to tidy up after pets if needed.
About: I have taken care of different sized dogs since I was a teen. I have experience in hand feeding and drinking for dogs who are ill. Taught dogs to walk on a leash, and basic commands and tricks with my own dogs. Experienced with Australian Shepherds, Australian Kelpies, Labrador Retrievers, Doodles, and mixed breed small dogs. Dogs have different energy levels so you have to adapt care to their specific age and breed. I do not walk dogs in the heat of the day or if the pavement is to hot so your furry friend can stay healthy. I prefer to walk your companion early in the morning or in the evening. I am currently retired and looking for ways to fill my time doing things that I love! I have a lot of time to spend with your fur baby! I do not leave small dogs unattended when going out in a yard even if it is fenced. I do not walk dogs in the heat of the day in the or if the pavement is too hot to the touch. My dog is currently recovering from a illness and she is being hand fed and at times drinking from your hand. She is older so we walk at her pace. We take all of our dogs to obedience classes and work with them regularly so they are good dog citizens. Water is always left out and I encourage the dog to drink after walks. I follow the feeding instructions given by friends and family members for their pet's. Treats are given at training and when we leave to go somewhere. Myself and my husband are the people who pick up a lost dog if they allow us to and take them home or to shelter so they can be reunited with their families.

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.
Taylor was excellent! She took amazing care of Blue during her drop-in visits and really put my mind at ease while we were away. She sent check-in cards with pics for each drop in and it was obvious Blue had a blast! Taylor even went as far as wiping his muddy paws before he came inside from playing in the rain 🥰🐾 definitely will be using Taylor in the future! So happy to have found such a great pet sitter!!
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.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Saint Charles stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
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 calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
