“Kaylee was super communicative and the pups loved her! She took great care of the dogs and left the house neat and clean. Even our dog who is usually so shy around strangers loved her. Thank you!”

About: I have over five years of experience caring for and sitting dogs, along with hands-on experience raising my own puppy. I’m comfortable working with dogs of all ages and sizes, including high-energy pups who need plenty of playtime and structure. I’m familiar with crate routines, potty training, and reinforcing good behavior, and I always follow each dog’s unique schedule and needs. I’m also able to manage specific feeding routines, medications, and any special care instructions to ensure every dog feels safe, happy, and well cared for. I work full-time on weekdays, but I’m fully available for pet care after 5 PM. This allows me to provide evening walks, drop-ins, or overnight care during the week. I’m also completely free on weekends, giving me plenty of time to focus on your dog with lots of attention, playtime, and consistent care. Whether you need weeknight help or full-day weekend support, I’m happy to accommodate your schedule. Your pup’s safety comes first! I live in a dog-friendly apartment with a fully fenced dog park for safe play and a quiet, friendly neighborhood perfect for long walks. I make sure every dog feels happy, secure, and loved while in my care.
“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: I’ve been taking care of pets and began learning to train since I was 9. It’s my biggest passion and I wouldn’t trade it for anything. I’ve cared for and trained puppies, young dogs and senior dogs. I’ve also recently accomplished training my cat how to sit and meow on command 🤭. I have two parakeets as well and grew up among other breeds such as cockatiels and love birds, so I am pretty familiar with birds as well. I understand that each pet has different care and needs depending on their breed, age, and mental/physical abilities. I’m a full time Police Dispatcher working Monday-Wednesday from 3pm-11pm and Thursday/Fridays from 7am-3pm, weekends off (usually). With set schedule, I can do one visit throughout the week and two or as many as needed throughout the weekends. In my home my dog free roams as I have trained him since he was a pup and we have that trust. Apollo has learned to be flexible with his schedules as my work hours flip flop. As long as he gets his two meals and a minimum of three thirty minute to an hour walks a day, with some play time in between, he is very much happy and mellow. In a clients home, I follow directions and asks questions to confirm how the client wants things done. If the clients has questions and wants advice on certain things, I’m always more than happy to help coach as a trainer and offer my advice 😊
“This was my first time with Tonia and she was wonderful and my dogs loved her! Great communication and lots of updates. It’s hard to be away but comforting to know my pups are so well taken care of!”
“Brett was wonderful and very punctual. I have an extremely large dog and he handled him like a pro. They are best buddies now! Thank you, Brett for taking such good care of my big baby!”
About: I have had my own dogs since I was 13 years old. I am very detailed in a feeding, walking and potty schedule for my dogs and I will do the same for yours I will be able to drop in on pets anytime morning to evening. I work instacart so I can very easily work drop ins around this I will be careful and loving and fun when I drop in on pets. I will make sure that they are well taken care of and get lots of attention
“Rachel provides weekly care for our dog and is always punctual. She provides excellent feedback, responds quickly, and is patient with our nervous dog, giving him the space and understanding he needs.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my entire life, I have had dogs of all sizes, personalities and traits! I will love your pets like my own. I look forward to meeting you and your pups! I currently work full time but I can be flexible with when I am needed! I will make your pup(s) my #1 priority while you are away! I can crate your dogs, work with or without a fence and I also love to play outdoors with the dogs I am watching as well, if appropriate/applicable. I also love snuggle time too (even if I have to be on the floor)!
“Lauren has been amazing with our pup. She is super patient with our playful, sometimes stubborn and now teething puppy. She has also been a great communicator and extremely reliable. We are so grateful to have her help us with mid day check ins as we transition back to school and work.”
About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life. I worked at my local vet in high school and took care of the animals that were being boarded as well as assisted in other tasks. Pets are family members and deserve to be treated as such. I have my nights, weekends, and holidays free so I'm available to make your pet as comfortable as possible with lots of love, playtime, and whatever else they might need. My wife stays at home full time and can help out with potty breaks. My kids are also able to assist with feeding, walking, and play time activities! I have a fenced in yard with plenty of room to run and play. I also have gates installed on both floors of my home for safety reasons in case your fur baby likes to dart out doors, etc. My house is also safety proofed so you don't have to worry about your pet getting into anything hazerdous or harmful.
About: Dogs have always been an important part of my life. As early as adolescense, I helped care for litters of puppies. I have had the delight of caring for dogs of various ages and temperments in more recent years. From bottle feeding runts to helping anxious elder dogs feel comfortable and safe, I have enjoyed providing compassionate care and companionship. I know that your pet/s are an important part of your family and will provide resposible care for them with the same level of compassion that I would my own. I am available most weekdays and some weekends after 12pm. I have good flexibility for in-house sitting overnight and can work with you if you need any care outside my window of availability If I am caring for pets in your home, I believe in "leave it better than you found it." I will respect your space and treat the care of your space as an extension of my duty to your pets.
“Victoria was such a lifesaver to help out with our pets at the last minute. She was so great with them and absolutely amazing at getting our cat to take his meds. We are incredibly grateful that we found Victoria!”
“Katie is just awesome! I needed her to come by twice in one day to play with the dogs, let them out and feed them and she was so great. The detailed notes she sent were so appreciated and the pictures she sent of my boys just showed how much they love her.”
“It was my first time using Rover so I was little nervous, particularly that one of my dogs is older and has some health issues. Micheal S. Took excellent care of the pops , he was timely with his visits and both dogs were calm when I returned home, where in the past, they were nervous and little crazy! Definitely reliable caretaker , would use again and recommend!”

Kori is fantastic! She took great care of our pups while we were on vacay. My mom stayed home but wasn’t able to fully care for the pups flying solo and Kori was a tremendous help to her. I believe our pups loved her so much they weren’t even super excited when we came home!
Elsie has been recovering from quite a tough time at the ICU (she almost died from kidney failure). We are very particular about leaving her, but we know Taro takes such good care of her that we were able to go out of town for a few days. He made sure she had her favorite water glass handy and gave her "lots of pets". He brushed her and she is so soft. She clearly was not traumatized by our absence. It was such a joy to arrive back home to a healthy, happy little girl cat. Taro is a such a blessing. Thank you!
I can’t say enough wonderful things about Alizee! She took such amazing care of our dogs and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such caring and capable hands. She was attentive, reliable, and clearly treated them like they were her own. She also kept an eye on our cat, which we truly appreciated. On top of that, she sent pictures and updates after every visit, which made us feel even more comfortable while we were away. It’s not always easy to find someone you can fully trust with your pets, but she exceeded our expectations in every way. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and compassionate pet sitter!
My two kitties loved Heather! She is very clearly a pet person. I felt good that they responded well and she did things with them even in her short time (drop in visits) there. I loved the pictures and the updates and would recommend Heather to anyone with any type of animal. She is knowledgeable and knows how to connect with all types of animals. She also went above an beyond by taking out the garbage on the final day. I am grateful for her help.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Saint Peters is $19 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $12 and $28 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 October 2026, there are 2,546 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Saint Peters. 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Saint Peters. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
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.
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
