“Amie is great! She sent me photos and let me come in when I dropped him off. She has a nice backyard that my dog enjoyed playing in since I don't have a yard. Brody seemed to like her very much and had a good time. There was a little mix up at pickup time, but it was quickly resolved. I will use her again.”
“We had a meet and greet with Debbie the week prior to our trip. She was very welcoming and made us feel comfortable leaving our pups with her. Their stay went well. Debbie sent messages and photos while we were gone. It was comforting to know they were being cared for and not stuck in a kennel all weekend. We will definitely bring them back when the need arises.”
“I would highly recommend her services. My puppy daughter has lots of fun and gets a chance to socialize with other pets. Katie is so great at keeping them on a great schedule of fun, naps, and rest. My doggy is always smiling when agreed is there.”
“Bryan was very attentive to both Tucker and me for our first Rover experience. He communicated daily and sent pics. Will definitely keep him in mind for our next trip.”
“This is our second time using Madhu. We cannot express enough how grateful we are to have found Marguerite and her family for our dog-sitting needs. Our dogs are like our babies, and finding someone who treats them with the same love and care that we do is priceless. Mahda and her family are incredibly caring and sweet, treating our pups like part of their own family. From the very first time we left our dogs with them, we knew they were in the best hands. They always keep us updated with photos and messages, so we never have to worry about how our fur babies are doing. The level of trust we have in them is immense, and it brings us such peace of mind knowing our dogs are happy and well-cared for when we're away. Madhu's home is truly a second home for our dogs, and we couldn't be happier with the care they receive. We will continue to rely on them for all our dog-sitting needs and highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a compassionate and dedicated dog sitter. Thank you, Madhu & Bharath and family, for everything you do for our furry babies.”
“Wonderful experience! Communication was excellent, and they were incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. As a first-time user/booker, I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Our pup had a very active, fun, and happy time. We’re so pleased and would definitely book again!”
“Rachel welcomed our 2 pups into her amazing home and huge fenced in backyard. They had a blast playing and enjoying her family. Rachel communicated often with pictures of all the fun. We are so happy we found such a wonderful caregiver for our babies.”
“Leanne has been wonderful and we will continue to utilize her services. Our dog is happy and content and it shows when we get pictures of him. We fully trust this provider.”
“Rayna and Zach are awesome! They took care of Reba on a holiday weekend and accepted an extra night last minute when plans changed. My pup was so happy and relaxed when she got home from playing with their dogs all weekend! I’ll definitely book them again!”
“My timid girl had a great stay with Tara. Open communication including daily updates, pictures and videos during her stay. Perfect accommodations to make her feel at home and the fenced yard was a plus! It was really nice not worrying about whether my dog was comfortable and not stressed out while we were away from home!”
“Thanks to Barbara and Steve we were able to enjoy our vacation. They loved and cared for our fur babies in their lovely home. Good communication, they sent us photos and videos We will be using them again, Thank you so much”
“Melanie was great. This was our first experience using a dog sitter and I'm not sure how it could have gone much better. We will use her every time we need this service.”
“Kelly was so great with our puppy Luna. We needed care within a short notice for a long weekend and Kelly was perfect. She took Luna to a dog park, took her on walks and spent lots of time with her. She was patient with her new puppy energy and we would definitely use Kelly again. Luna was sad to leave 😊”
“I am very grateful to Dawn. She made my pet feel like home and he was so happy there. For accepting the request in the last minute and keeping us updated with photos, Dawn truly was amazing. I highly recommend. Thanks Dawn 🤩”
“Yingfei was a wonderful sitter for my labrador retriever. She provided photos and several updates throughout my booking period of how my dog was doing. I would definitely book with her again!”
“Teresa did awesome with my dog. She took her for a walk, outside to play, and let my dog nap on her. My girl has separation anxiety and Teresa made her feel welcomed and comfortable. Thank you!”
“I had a great experience with Saranya. They were communicative, reliable, and clearly cared about my pet’s well-being. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. My pet came home happy and well cared for. I would definitely book with them again and highly recommend them to others!”
“Brianna and her family were so awesome with our dog, Emmy. This was our first time using Rover and we couldn’t have been more pleased. Emmy had lots of play time, pets, and snuggles. She even came home with her own bag of home made doggie treats! I will book Brianna for future stays.”
“By far THE very BEST sitters I've had in the past! Wendy and Kurt took great care of Chase. They sent texts and pic updates during our time away. Chase had a great time and is looking forward to seeing them again. We will definitely be contacting Wendy and Kurt for our next trip. Thank you Rover, Wendy and Kurt!!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Paul 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 Paul.
<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 Paul 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 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.
