“Nikki is AMAZING and I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a Rover sitter! She goes above and beyond to make sure your fur children are safe, happy, and entertained while in her care. Quigley loves going to boarding or daycare with Nikki and her fur babies! Plus Quigley always comes back to me tired from all of the play and fun he has had! Can’t wait for our next stay with Nikki”

“Chief stayed with her for 2 nights. I was so nervous to drop him off for the first time ever. When I picked him up, he was so happy and didn’t wanna leave. She sent me lots of updates and pictures. 100% recommend!”

“Dear Rover friends, we highly recommend Samantha and her lovely family for taking excellent care of our 4year Australian Shepherd, Jasper! Thank you so much Sam for treating him like family :) We enjoyed getting updates with photos :)”
About: Since I can remember, I’ve been taking care of dogs, cats, fish (fresh water and salt water), birds, reptiles, rodents, etc. I even have some experience with farm animals! I own a pug, 3 cats and a fish tank. I love all my animals deeply. I’m very picky about who I let care for my babies, I assume the same for you. I will go above and beyond to ensure your baby is happy, healthy and safe! Currently, I work evenings Mon-Thur as a private music teacher. Usually, I’m there from 3-7pm. Also, my fiancé is also home during the time I’m not. So, if you book a boarding with me, your animals will be in good hands as he also has plenty of experience with animals, if not, more! When you book a boarding with me, I’m confident in saying that your pet is 100% safe with me. My animals are trained and well behaved. I will make sure they are introduced properly and not just thrown together! I will be sure to follow your instructions and ask as many questions as I need to ensure quality care. If any emergency arises, you will be the first I call. I prefer if you leave another emergency contact, or permission to bring your pet to the vet in case of an emergency. When you book a sitting with me in your home. I will only touch the things you allow me to touch/put in the instructions. I’ll clean up any messes that are made. You can trust that I will respect you and your home. No one will come with me to your home unless you authorize it! I will always be sure that you and your pets feel comfortable with me. I love open communication, so if something feels off to you or if you’d like me to do something different, please let me know!
“Taylor & Sam were amazing! Communicative, treated the dogs so well. Daily updates & lots of exercise. Also flexible because of my hectic schedule. I haven’t felt this comfortable with someone watching my dogs for awhile. Great job!”

About: Hi! My name is Destinee, and I’m currently saving for my wedding while doing something I genuinely love, caring for animals. I’ve grown up around dogs, cats, chickens etc. and understand that every pet deserves patience, attention, and lots of love. Whether your dog needs a walk, playtime, drop-in visits, or overnight care, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. I’m dependable, communicative, and will make sure you receive updates and photos while you’re away so you can have peace of mind. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I’d love the opportunity to care for yours. Every booking helps me work toward my wedding, and I’m incredibly grateful for your support! I own and operate my own cleaning business, which gives me a flexible schedule to provide dependable pet care throughout the week. With advance notice, I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting on weekdays and weekends. I understand how important routines are, so I’ll always communicate clearly, arrive on time, and make sure your pet receives the love, attention, and care they deserve while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fenced-in backyard where dogs can safely play under supervision. I also have chickens, a friendly cat, and two children who have been raised to be gentle and respectful with animals. I understand that not every pet is comfortable around other animals or children, so I’ll always discuss your pet’s personality and needs beforehand to make sure it’s the right fit. I’m happy to follow feeding schedules, administer basic care, crate your dog if requested, and provide plenty of love, playtime, and photo updates while you’re away.

“I was reluctant to leave Grace with any stranger but this worked out great for both us and Her Grace. She’s used to lots of attention and apparently got it because she was perfectly comfortable with Elizabeth when we picked her up. Knowing she was so well cared for made our Big Easy vacation all the better.”

“I can't say enough about Sheila. She took on my little Lily dog who not only has Heart Disease and Trachea Collapse Disorder, but also has separation anxiety. Yet she and Dave gave Lil the best of care, with the greatest of patience. I could tell Lily felt loved. I will bring Lily back to Sheila, without reservations. Thank you sooo much for caring for my senior doggie.”
About: I have had bunnies, cats and dogs throughout my life. I am a manager at a doggy daycare and have a special bond with dogs, especially. I am an animal lover and so excited to build relationships with you and your babies! I am working full time, so I am available weekdays (except Wednesdays) after 5:30pm, and am mostly open on the weekends! We can work together to create the best care possible for your pets :) My husband and I have 2 cats and 1 dog right now. Both our cats are sphynx, so they have no hair. I have also raised furry cats too! I love working with my dog constantly on new tricks and behavioral training. My husband and I usually refer to the 3 as our kids instead of our pets because we're so obsessed with them 🤗

“Cheyenne was very flexible with my schedule. I was on vacation and we were going floating. On the day Cheyenne was supposed to watch my dog, the river was swollen and dangerous to float. She went above and beyond to accommodate for the situation. She was prompt on pickup and drop off, communicated effectively and overall a sweet girl”


About: i have genuine love for animals. i feel like i connect with them on a deep level, and animals have always loved me as much as i love them. i have never had a paid animal sitting job, however, i have owned and taken care of them my entire life, and many occasions, i’ve helped family members with animal sitting. I work part time, and my son has therapy on Tuesdays/Thurs. He is autistic. I’m just looking for a few little boarding or drop ins jobs here and there on Fridays, Saturdays, & potentially some sundays. preferably after 3 pm. I have a fenced in yard in the back of my home if they come to my home. They are also welcome in the house, but i would prefer they be potty trained or atleast someone be working on it with them. If it’s a drop in at your home, I will do whatever it is that you need. As stated, they will be so very well cared for and i will treat them like i do my own.
“Arlene is wonderful!! She is so caring and had my girl for a week. We got frequent updates and pictures. Our girl was looking great when we picked her up. Definitely would use her again!!!”

“Julie provided great care to my little fur baby!! She sent me photos and keep me updated and asked questions when needed. She went above and beyond in his care. We will definitely use her again when we are in need of a dog sitter . ❤️”

Every sitter has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
Sitters may also include daily walks in the neighborhood during your dog's boarding stay. You can also request photo and message updates throughout so you can see which local landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Sullivan 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 Sullivan.
Tip: 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 Sullivan 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.
