“This is my first time using Rover for my senior dog and Keena is wonderful. She has always been on time, takes him for the full time booked and Charlie is happy when she brings him back. I will continue to use her.”

“Niah has been a wonderful part of Princeton Antonio’s daily routine, and he gets extra excited whenever she arrives! She’s energetic, caring, and incredibly thoughtful. One of the things I appreciate most is how she always sends me sweet photos of Princeton that I can share with my mother in Chicago (who, by the way, adores her St. Louis-based grand-dog). Rain or shine, Niah shows up every evening without fail. Her dependability and connection with Princeton have been incredibly helpful while I've been recovering from a broken ankle. She has my highest recommendation to anyone who needs a dog walker or pet sitter.”


About: I’ve grown up around dogs and trained one dog growing up. I have experience walking neighbors dogs and house-sitting for friends and family. Love all dogs! I’m currently working, and evenings and weekends are the most free for me. My schedule will free up significantly around the summer time. I grew up with dogs and have been missing them dearly, so I am excited to have more furry friends in my life! I love taking dogs for walks. I’ll always leash up before opening the door. On walks, I’ll follow whatever style of interaction your pet is used to. I’ve walked dogs who are friendly to other dogs and people and dogs who are not- so I’ve had experience on both ends of the spectrum. It is helpful to know what their dog typically does on a given day, any information is appreciated :). I love to be active and play with dogs, but also respect downtime to rest.
“Laura is very helpful, dependable and thoughtful. Laura has been helping me out while I have been stuck traveling from flight delays....with a couple of extra visits for my pup. I cannot be more grateful to Laura for her extra help at the last minute.”


About: I'm 31 years old and have been taking care of cats and dogs since I was a teenager. Not necessarily in a professional setting, but I have years of experience pet sitting for my friends and family. Walking, bathing/grooming, training, administering medicine, etc - I can do it all. I currently have 1 dog and 1 cat of my own + tons of extra love/time on my hands during the week for your fur family. Ask me anything, I'm an open book! I have the most availability Saturday/Sunday evenings and Monday - Friday in the afternoons between 3 PM - 8 PM. There are a few week day mornings that I will have available starting at 8 AM (depending on when I get scheduled to work my other job) I live a block away from Tower Grove Park and will happily take dogs there to get some steps in! I have a backyard that is not fenced in, so they will be leashed if taken out back to go potty. There is a large crate here if that's ever needed. They are welcome to lay on my couch and bed, but there is a dog bed available as well + plenty of toys for them to chew and feel right at home with.
“Caroline was super helpful and flexible as we rolled into town to check out the Arch and needed a dog walker/sitter for our Goober. She had great communication and was excellent to work with!”

About: Hello! I have previously built a small dog sitting clientele in the city of Columbia between the years of 2017-2019. In 2019 I moved to STL and worked through Rover for about two more years until I got a full time job. Currently dipping my toes back into pet care! Although I am in St. Louis I am willing to travel to areas including, but not limited to; St. Charles, Wentzville, O'Fallon, etc. My set days off are Sunday and Monday. I do still currently have a fulltime job, so for the time being I will only be able to do drop in visits and walks. I am comfortable working with either dogs or cats. I have a 4 year old orange cat that I rescued at just 2 weeks old, so I have experience working with very small kittens as well. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask! I work about 30 hours a week, but will not let this effect how I care for your pet! My days off are always Sunday and Monday, and I am available at anytime either of those days, as well as most evenings and certain mornings. I unfortunately cannot offer services in my own home, but I am more than willing to provide pet watching in the clients home. I am able to do drop in visits, feedings, hair brushes, playtime, walks or whatever your pet needs while you're at work or just out for the day.

About: Hi! I’m Erin, and I’m currently accepting new pet sitting clients in the St. Louis area. I work at Saint Louis University and also work part-time as a caregiver, so being dependable, responsible, and communicative is a huge part of my everyday life. I’m a lifelong dog owner and currently have a Lab mix of my own, so I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and energy levels. I offer drop-in visits, dog walking, feeding, potty breaks, medication administration (oral medications), playtime, and overnight pet sitting. I provide regular photo and text updates so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. Unfortunately, I’m allergic to cats, so I’m only accepting dog and other non-cat household pet clients at this time. If you’re looking for someone reliable who will care for your dog like family, I’d love to connect. Feel free to message me with your location, dates, and what services you’re looking for. I currently have a full time role at SLU that offers remote days and flexible hours. I am able to adjust my schedule to manage both. I am very comfortable working with larger energetic dogs and those who may be a bit more timid. My family dog is a bull mastiff boxer mix who can run around for hours on end and my dog is an anxious couch potato through and through.
About: I've taken care of and loved on dogs ever since I was a young child. We constantly had dogs in the house and many of my responsibilities would be to take care of them. My family relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe them. We have had a range of dog sizes from a Yorkshire Terrier to a Golden Retriever. For the past five years, I have also fostered dogs. Their activity levels and their physical capabilities would range as well. Pet care fits well in my daily and weekly schedules. Over the summer, I have much more free time. I love to go to parks to walk around and enjoy the outdoors. I would love to explore them with your dogs. I enjoy pets and I love to get to know their unique personalities. I establish a consistent daily routine for feeding, exercising, and grooming the pets. This includes providing fresh water, feeding them their prescribed diet, taking them for walks or playtime, and attending to their grooming needs such as brushing or bathing. I ensure that the home or designated area is secure, with no escape routes or dangerous objects within the pet's reach.

About: As a passionate and experienced pet sitter, I bring a unique blend of reliability, empathy, and expertise to every pet I care for. I understand that your pet is a beloved member of your family, and I treat them with the same love, patience, and attention as I would my own. With a strong background in pet care, from managing feeding schedules to providing mental and physical stimulation, I ensure each pet’s needs are fully met. My flexible approach allows me to adapt to different temperaments and requirements, whether for a high-energy pup, a shy cat, or a pet needing special care. Choosing me means peace of mind for you and a safe, joyful experience for your pet—because their happiness and well-being are my top priorities Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine, thoughtfully woven into each part of my day to ensure that every pet I look after receives the attention and care they deserve. My mornings begin with feedings, refreshing water bowls, and a bit of playtime to start each pet’s day on a positive note. Throughout the day, I check in regularly to ensure their needs are met, adjusting my schedule for specific care requirements like medication, exercise, or one-on-one attention. Evening routines often include another feeding, a final check-in, and a cozy wind-down to help them feel safe and secure before bedtime. This routine isn’t just about tasks; it’s about creating a steady rhythm that pets find comforting, reinforcing a bond of trust and familiarity with each pet in my care. When caring for pets in my home or while pet sitting in another person’s home, I prioritize creating a familiar, comforting environment tailored to each animal’s needs. At home, I maintain a designated pet-friendly area stocked with essentials like food, toys, and a cozy rest space, ensuring pets feel secure and relaxed. In a client's home, I adhere to the pet’s established routines and preferences, whether it’s feeding schedules, walking times, or play habits, to minimize stress and maintain consistency. I’m vigilant about safety, cleanliness, and any specific care instructions provided by the pet’s owner, adapting to each pet’s unique personality—whether that means extra play for an energetic pup or gentle companionship for a shy cat. This approach allows pets to feel loved and cared for in a setting that feels just like home, whether it’s mine or theirs.
About: My parents are avid animal rescuers and dog trainers so I have taken care of many different dog breeds ranging from puppies to senior dogs. I also spent a lot of college pet sitting for my professors to fund my degree and am comfortable administering meds, crating dogs and of course helping your pet work off their pent up energy. I am a content creator and baker so my hours are completely flexible. I am able to check in throughout the day while you’re at work and also can offer overnight stays. I do sometimes host shows and events between the hours of 7-10 pm so some overnight visits may need to start later depending on how much supervision your pet needs. I am very comfortable following care plans and can accommodate your pets routine to ensure everything runs smoothly in your absence. I am also happy to check in and will ask questions if needed to clarify any instructions.
About: I have cared for pets my entire life. We had various dogs and cats growing up in my family home. My previous roommate had a dog and a cat for many years and I would pet-sit whenever needed! Big or small, I love them all! I work remotely a few days a week, so my schedule is flexible. Weekends are available! Holidays are dependent on my work schedule, but I am usually available! I am available to housesit or pet sit at the owner's home. I cannot housesit at my place at this time. I am happy to dogsit and take extra care of your pets!

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
About: I have been looking after animals in some capacity my whole life, whether my own pets or the animals of loved ones, neighbors, and people in my community. I bond with animals quickly and deeply and have a very strong intuitive sense of their needs. My schedule is open for your pet care needs. I am between jobs and only work part time as a yoga instructor, so I have a lot of availability as a result! Let me know what you need, and I will be there. I am unable to care for your dog in my home, but I am happy to provide exceptional and attentive care at your abode and in the outdoors.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Saint Louis
She is absolutely wonderful! Super nice, professional, and very dependable. She requires minimal supervision and is completely comfortable taking my dog, Jack, outside on her own without me needing to be present. I really appreciate how trustworthy, responsible, and easy she is to work with. Highly recommend her!

I’ve been using Brenna for the past 8 months to walk my two German Shepherds three days a week and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Finding someone reliable who can handle two high-energy GSDs, especially one with trust issues, is not easy, but she has been consistently excellent. Every walk has been on time, thorough, and handled with real confidence and care. My dogs come home happy, well-exercised, and clearly comfortable with her. I always receive updates and photos, which gives me complete peace of mind while I’m at work. What stands out most is the consistency and professionalism over such a long period. I never once had to worry about cancellations or last-minute issues. Highly recommend Brenna to anyone looking for a trustworthy, experienced dog walker.

OMG. THIS BOX IS NOT BIG ENOUGH TO DESCRIBE MS. K. AWESOME ON ALL LEVELS. DURING THE MEET AND GREET SHE AND PIPER WERE TRUE BESTIES. IT WAS A MATCH CLEARLY DESIGNED BY GOD. IT FELT LIKE WE WERE FAMILY. SHE'S SOOO POLITE AND RESPECTFUL OF THE OWNER AS WELL. I ABSOLUTELY ADORE HER AND SO DOES PIPER. WE WILL USE HER AGAIN AND AGAIN
We’ve been working with Morgan consistently over the past 6 months and she has been absolutely fantastic! She’s incredibly communicative and reliable giving us complete peace of mind. We trust her completely and would recommend her without hesitation to any of our close friends and family!!

Communication is excellent, with regular updates and photos that give me peace of mind while I'm away. Their attention to detail, patience, and caring attitude make them someone I trust completely with my pet. I highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a dependable and compassionate dog walker. For a shorter review: **Excellent dog walker!** Reliable, professional, and caring.

Tatianna was an amazing help walking my dog. She met with us beforehand to introduce herself and clarify how she best care for my dog. She sent a picture after each walk and ensured my dog had enough food and water before leaving. I highly recommend her to everyone in the area that needs their dog walked!

The average cost of Dog Walking in Saint Louis is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $33 per walk. On Rover, walkers 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 of November 2026, there are 2,482 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Saint Louis. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in Saint Louis. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Saint Louis after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
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 walker 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.
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Saint Louis. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers 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 walker.
