About: I have cared for dogs my whole life - from my own to those of neighbors and family friends. I am able to care for young puppies to those of a more senior age. I work at a restaurant so have a somewhat flexible schedule. I can do drop ins, overnights, and walks. I would love to help your pet get the care they need! I care for each and every pet like they are my own. First and foremost I will prioritize their safety, and your wishes as the pet parent!
“I would 100% recommend Hayle to take care of your pet! She was a great sitter and did everything we needed and more! I was glad to not worry about my cat while I was away!”

About: Just a dog mom and passionate animal lover with a dream of spoiling every fur baby in STL. I own a large, reactive senior dog that is my pride and joy so I’m well versed in reactive dogs with spicy personalities. Disclaimer: I’m a physician with unpredictable hours but I know my schedule months in advance so we’ll work together to find a good routine. I will always be transparent if I can’t provide the care needed due to time constraints. I’m comfortable with dogs of any size, age, or medical needs and cats are more than welcome to join the gang ! My schedule varies due to switching between clinic and hospital rotations every month. I’m usually available in the evenings and weekends. I know my schedule months in advance so will depend on what service you're looking for and what dates Unfortunately, my dog is not friendly with other animals so I cannot provide boarding. I can only offer house sitting if able to alternate between my home and yours
“Samantha was very communicative about what my boys were up to while I was away. She also was able to fit me into her schedule on a late notice. This was the first time I left my cats at home and didn't have my mom watch them with an asthmatic cat and I was not worried at all. She's the best!”
“Outstanding experience with William! My cat needs daily oral medications that require extra care and patience, and William did an incredible job administering them. The communication was prompt and consistent, with many wonderful photo updates during each visit. Very responsible, gentle, and reliable. Knowing my cat was in such capable hands gave me total peace of mind! My cat enjoys staying with him! Highly recommend!”
“Morgan did a great job with my two cats! She took lots of photos and played with them each visit. She even went as far as to feed my pet turtle too. Would definitely rebook Morgan for future needs!”
“KB is magical! Our cats (who are very shy/hide from new people) went to her on the first visit. KB is calm, responsible, took care of our house and kitties perfectly. She sent us photos and updates everyday, answered any questions we had — we could fully relax knowing our kitties were safe and well taken care of.”
“Karrie did a wonderful job looking after my two cats (one of whom needs meds and extra care) while I was away for a week! When I came home I could tell that they were well looked after. I highly recommended her, she's a true animal lover!”
About: I'm a devoted dog enthusiast who loves spending time with pups of all shapes and sizes!

My goal is to be a reliable and caring presence for your dog, giving you peace of mind while you're away. My schedule is quite flexible, allowing me to provide attentive care for your pets. I have fixed free days every Thursday and Friday, which are perfect for extended visits, multiple walks, or full-day care. On other days, I'm happy to work around your needs.

About: Growing up, there was never a time when there wasn’t a dog in the house, and I have been a cat mom for going on five years, so I am very understanding of the care that comes with each animal. Additionally, I have experience with puppies/kittens all the way to senior pets and know that each require personalized care (and I have no problem giving it). As an added bonus, I live with my partner, who also is a dog dad and everyday he gives his dog daily vitamins to stay happy and healthy. Plus he used to work at a wild life rehabilitation center, so he is very familiar with how to care for all animals, regardless of species, age or health. I work a hybrid schedule and currently have every other Friday off so I have plenty of time to care for your best friend. My work also allows employees to bring their dogs to work, if it’s something you’re comfortable with, I would love to show off your doggo! I am available for drop off/pickup anytime on weekends and after 5pm on weekdays. Plus my partner is a graduate student, so he comes home throughout the day to care for his own dog. I have a fenced in yard, so there are no worries when it comes to potty or play. Plus, I live with a very playful dog who can’t wait to spend time with your doggo! I also have a cat who is very tolerant of dogs (she probably won’t play, but doesn’t mind their presence). She is also very comfortable around other cats, she’s a tad shy so another playmate will probably do her some good!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Saint Louis
Jamie takes time and extra consideration with our pets. He even provided a "test walk" with our leash-reactive doggo, and I felt confident Jamie would take good care of him on walks while we were away. He puts forth a lot of care and professionalism, and we have already re-booked and will continue to do so in the future!
Ugur was so patient with my diabetic kitty who needs insulin twice a day. Unfortunately, our cats are very skittish with new people even though he met them during a meet n greet. Our cat hid from him behind our washing machine and Ugur was able to flush him out and had to chase him all around, but he was always able to find him for his insulin! This is such piece of mind when you have cats that need meds. So thankful he was able and willing to do the job and keep me update during each visit. Definitely my fave sitter and I'm using him for all our future trips.
Deyna took excellent care of our cat, Zuni, by checking in several times a day while we were away. She was always on time for each visit, and not only fed my baby, but gave her her medicine as well. And she of course, gave my baby love with rubs and pets! Deyna is friendly, responds to messages quickly, and shared tons of pictures of my cat during each visit. She is a pleasure to work with, especially given the fact that my travel plans changed a few times and she was always kind about it and accommodating. I told her I would arrive back home on Sunday afternoon and she still told me that she would be available to feed my cat midday or in the evening if I needed it. She’s so helpful! I definitely recommend her to others in need of pet sitting!
Charnell made my long travel away from my two precious fluffs completely stress-free. I came home to two very happy cats! She provided quick updates with photos and play time with the cats, with all their needs taken care of. I would absolutely recommend her and will use her again for my next time away.
Autumn has been helping with Peaches for years, and she is the absolute best. She is so good with pets, and she takes the best pictures so you know your pet is safe and happy. She goes above and beyond, and this time she even unboxed and put away our Hello Fresh that I forgot was coming. 🥰😭 Book Autumn and you will not regret it!

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Saint Louis is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $32 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.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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 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.

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.
