“Max and Mariah were fantastic with my dog. They loved on him as if he was one of their own. He enjoyed playing with their children and all the free space he had in the backyard.”
“Our pup stayed with Ed for the second time and we had a wonderful experience again. Opie came back happy and tired. She had a nail issue while we were gone, but thankfully Ed took care of it and everything is fine. We didn't have to worry at all.”
“Had a great experience boarding my dog with Jeanne. He was really well taken care of the entire time, and I got frequent updates with pictures and little notes on how he was doing. super reassuring.”
“Erin was very accommodating to our last minute need for a sitter. She sent updates and pictures every day and was quick to respond. She made sure our dog was eating (hand feeding) even though he was nervous in a new setting. Our dog had a fun time playing with other dogs in her backyard. Would recommend!”
“Susan took wonderful care of Roscoe. She was great with communication and kept me updated throughout the stay. We felt our fur baby was in good hands the whole time and I would recommend her to anyone else looking for pet care in the area.”
About: Hi! I am new to Rover, but caring for dogs is something my family truly loves. I have a friendly golden retriever named Stanley who absolutely thrives when he has other dogs to play with—so hosting furry friends is a joy for all of us! I work from home most days, which means your pup will get plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. My young kids also love having dogs around and are gentle, playful, and used to being around animals. I also have a cat in our home who is very comfortable around dogs—she and Stanley are great friends—so your pup should be cat-friendly or at least respectful of cats. I have a fully fenced-in yard for safe outdoor playtime, and I treat every dog that stays with us like part of the family. Whether your dog loves to play or just relax, I will make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and right at home. Since I’m just getting started on Rover, I’m excited to build relationships with both pets and their owners and provide a safe, trustworthy environment you can feel confident in. I currently work a hybrid schedule. I am home 2-3 days a week. We do have a fenced in yard and a doggy door. I have a fenced in yard and my animals are our family. They are welcome to lay where they are comfortable and shares the bed with me if needed.
“Our pup was thrilled to return to Todd's and made herself right at home. It feels good knowing she is in good hands and I don't have to worry about her while we are away! Thank you, Todd, for another great boarding experience!”
“I’ve left my Sophie with Kathy several times now & there is no one I would trust more. She loves what she does & it shows. She is gentle & loving with all her little charges and I feel totally comfortable leaving for a week or an afternoon. I highly recommend her for your fur baby. Patty C”
“Matt maintained great communication with us and our dog seemed to be very happy playing with Matt’s dog and going for walks. We’d definitely ask Matt to watch our dog again!”
“Larisa is amazing! She boarded our 3 dogs in her home for a week. She is very professional and sweet. She is a real animal lover and it shows through her work. Our dogs had daily activities and walks. I know our dogs felt like they were home because of Larisas exceptional care and love for them. We will 100% be using Larisas services again. 10/10 would definitely recommend her!”
“Marv had a great time staying with Jessica and her fellow beagle, Barry. We had just adopted Marv and we were nervous leaving him for so long but he did great and seemed very happy when we went to pick him up. We will leave Marv with Jessica and Barry again!”
“Our fur babies had a wonderful time with Maria and her family. We received countless pictures and messages throughout our 10 day trip that illustrated how happy and loved our dogs were. Maria even gave them baths just before we returned! We highly recommend Maria and will use her again.”
“Kaleigh was great with my dogs! She took great care of them while we were out of town. Sent me several pictures too which eased my mind about having a new sitter. Will definitely rebook with her in the future. Thanks Kaleigh for everything you did for the girls!”
“Jesse & her family are an excellent fit for our Lexi. They board only one client at a time & that was good for our dog who has ACL injury & should not play with other dogs or have vigorous activity for now. Lexi came home happy! Often times she is clingy & anxious with much pacing when she’s been boarded- she did great getting acclamated to home. I felt they treated her as one of the family. We’ve already booked her with Jesse!”
About: I've lived with pets every day of my life and recently had to move and miss dogs so much! My mom is a vet and a pet trainer so I know how to take care of any pet, big or small, old or young with love and care! As a pet owner mysef l keep a constant eye on the needs and wants of the animals around me, I currently don't have a job due to recently life difficulties so all my time is open for pet care right now I have a clean home, love taking animals on walks and my cat is good with both other cats and dogs (she gets scared but with time loves making friends)

91% of Saint Louis 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 Saint Louis 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 Saint Louis 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 Saint Louis.
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 Saint Louis 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 MI 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.
