“Ashley was amazing! It was a little rough for her and Cooper in the beginning but they both worked through Cooper's issues.I got updates several times a day which I loved. She made sure that Cooper felt safe which was my biggest priority and when she left I think my house was a little cleaner than when I left for vacation. I would definitely recommend Ashley and will be calling her again in the future.!!!”

“Em did an amazing job taking care of my Frenchie and kitty over the holidays. She looked after them for over 10 days in my home and sent consistent photos and status updates. When I returned home, my house was exactly how I left it, and she went above and beyond by washing the towels and bed linens she used. Most importantly my fur babies were happy and healthy and didn’t seem to miss me much 🥲”

“Tori was so great! Took good care of all of our animals, was a lovely guest in our home, shared frequent photos and status updates, and was overall a pleasure to work with. Will be rebooking. :)”

“Ross has done an amazing job taking care of my pup. He has been very communicative which I really appreciated. It helped me to have a good trip without worrying about my pup. Thx Ross for taking care of Benny.”

“Julia was great! She made sure to send pictures and updates while she watched the dogs. She made me feel comfortable knowing my dogs were being watched. Will 100% be using her in the future!”

“Another successful booking with Chloe for our 3 pups! I received daily photos/videos, daily medication was administered, and the pups were in great spirits upon our return. You can tell they were well cared for.”

“Nicole did a wonderful job caring for my pets! Both of my dogs can be skittish around new people, but they took quickly to her and were comfortable with her in their space. She did an amazing job at communicating with me and sent lots of pictures so I knew how they were doing. I would definitely book with Nicole again!”

About: I’ve had cats all my life and currently own two of my own cats. Many of my friends have larger dogs, and have relied on me to help check on them while they are out of town and take them for walks and have play dates. I love all kinds of dogs and cats! I am currently working from home on Mondays and Fridays, but that will change to working from home on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday in the next couple of weeks. My nights are mostly free and am able to be flexible with my schedule. I will make sure your pet is comfortable, well fed and hydrated, and give them the playtime and snuggles they need! I make sure litter boxes and yards are clean and clean up any accidents that may happen.
“Jennifer took care of our two high energy dogs without any issues! She was incredibly responsive and left our house in great condition. I highly recommend her.”

“This sitter was amazing and made our vacation away from our pets doable! She spent lots of time with Sunny and Kitty, taking them for walks and playing with them. She sent lots of pics each day, all day long to assure us the animals were getting lots of attention. There were no negative issues at all! Highly recommend!”

“Hayden did a good job taking care of Jack while I was out of town. She was very attentive to his needs and made me feel comfortable. Communication was good.”

“Emily was great. She was able to help me out last minute for the holidays and everything went amazing. She updated me frequently with photos. Came home to happy pups! I would and will definitely use her again.”

“Bri made me feel so comfortable with leaving town knowing how much my kitty liked her at the meet and greet and the time she took to let me get to know her. She took excellent care of my senior kitty who gets very stressed when left alone and was more than happy to spend above and beyond time with her, giving her love and attention and even making sure her bird shows were on/sat with her during tv time which is my cats absolute favorite thing 😸. She had no problem staying the night so my kitty didn’t get stressed being all alone and was totally good with kitty sleeping above her head..:the highest compliment in kitty world. 😻 She took excellent care of the house and checked on plants as well per my request. She had no issue with changing potty pads which is an unusual request for cat sitting to say the least haha. She also kept me supplied with updates and pics to set my mind at ease. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone! 10/10”

“James was amazing with our dogs. We can’t say enough good things about him. He was very accommodating and both our dogs were mad at us when we had to leave. I would highly recommend James and we will definitely use his services again when we are back in the area.”


“Jennifer and co were absolutely fantastic! I had a last minute request because my cat injured himself and needed extra care. Jennifer stayed with him, gave meds, and updated me with any changes. My other cat was also well loved and taken care of! I received many video and photo updates every night and I knew my babies were in good hands!!! I will definitely book again!”

About: I have been taking training, looking after, and loving pets for as long as I can remember. My grandmother, a liscenced trainer, has taught me everything I know from puppy care, crate training, leash training, to medication administration and food aggression. I have also had a lot of experience with rescues and more skiddish dogs. I have cared for dogs ranging from the ages of 3 weeks old to 15 years old. I live in a 2 bedroom 2 bathroom apartment with a fenced backyard. I recently moved from Washington state back to Missouri with my fiancé and I’ve also had a new baby girl so I have a lot of free time on my hands currently. I am available on all weekdays and on all weekends. Everyday I would take my dog out for a quick walk before I left for work, at that time she also gets an apple, refill on water and her morning vitamins/treats with breakfast. When I get home I let her go potty then we go over routine training, with many treats of course, then to the dog park. On occasion we stop to get a pup cup and coffee on the way home. She then has dinner and her nighttime vitamins, I brush her teeth an it’s bedtime. For my 2 cats we have breakfast at 9am. wet and dry food with vitamins then we change the litter. We have treats throughout the day then dinner, wet and dry food with vitamins, at 8pm.
Saint Louis pet parents share their Rover experiences
Bri was so easy to work with! She was communicative, reliable, and our pets absolutely adored her. We were able to enjoy our vacation because we felt so comfortable with her taking care of things for us. Our pets have never been less stressed out while we were away; they were immediately comfortable with her which says a lot (small neurotic dog and finicky cat). We're so thrilled to have found her.

Jason did a terrific job. He made an immediate connection with our dogs and was very mindful of instructions for the care of our senior dog that requires additional attention. He stayed in constant communication with us and left our home in great condition. Highly recommend!

Haley was absolutely incredible!! She stayed in our home to care for our two dogs and transient cat while we were on vacation. She was extremely communicative, caring, proactive in her approach, trustworthy, and super easy to talk to. She went above and beyond, especially when our flights were delayed and we needed an extra night of care last minute. We are fairly anxious pet parents, but she calmed our nerves immediately. We highly recommend and love Haley!!

Emily was the perfect person for my dog Butters when I went on a trip! This was my first time having someone staying at my house and it was great for my senior dog to be in a comfortable environment. She was super friendly and kind. She sent updates on their cuddle sessions, cute pics, took him for a pup cup and you can tell she really loves dogs! Also she left everything exactly how I left and was very communicative. Highly recommend Emily! Would absolutely love to have her watch my dog on my next trip away.

James was amazing with our dogs. We can’t say enough good things about him. He was very accommodating and both our dogs were mad at us when we had to leave. I would highly recommend James and we will definitely use his services again when we are back in the area.
