About: Say goodbye to worries when leaving your pet behind. Picture your fur baby enjoying daily playtime, meals, cozy naps, and daily walks around the neighborhood from a playful dog lover, sitter, and friend. 🐶❤️ I currently work from home on a hybrid so I’ll have plenty of flexibility to play with your fur babies! I am also available for doggy daycare daily! I have a small dog park in my apartment which provides a fun space to meet and play with other doggies! I also have experience potty training pups!
“Sophia did such a great job caring for my Franklin. He had the best weekend going for walks and playing fetch in her fenced in yard! Sophia was great with communication and so easy to work with!”

About: I've had 2 shih tzus (who recently both passed away at almost 16 years old), so I love small dogs (and any and all sweet pups!) I also have a calico cat, who is very sweet. Any pet who stays with us should be cat-tolerant, and also they should be OK with kids. I also have 2 kids (a 7 year old and toddler) who love animals. Please, no aggressive animals, as we do not have experience. House trained pets, please. I work from home, and I am almost always home, except for errands, to take my kids to extra circular classes. We are never out of the house for more than a few hours at a time. I have a fenced backyard, but there are steps to go down it. Pets can roam freely at the house. We can also crate your pet if they are more comfortable sleeping in the crate. But they are free to jump on couches, beds, and furniture. We have baby gates to keep pets out of unsafe areas.
“Our two dogs stayed with Jane for several days, and she was super thoughtful and accommodating for their needs. Shen sent us pictures throughout their stay, and they were both happy and healthy when we returned from our trip. I will be looking to have Jane host our dogs in the future!”


“Tre'Ana is a great sitter and I will definitely use her services again. When I dropped him off her daughter wanted to play with soon as I got in the house lol. I appreciate when the family loves on Tyson just as much as I do. Thank you so much!”

“Excellent pet sitter! She boarded our puppy for two nights and took great care of her. Our puppy came home happy, healthy, and well-loved. Great communication and a caring environment. Highly recommend!”

“Christopher was amazing with Jet and Maverick. He took a last minute booking which was great for us as we were only passing through St. Louis and needed the boys to be boarded for the night. He even brushed my dogs at my request. Both of the boys were happy when we picked them up.”


“Sarah took great care of our golden retriever, Phoenix, while we took a brief vacation. He fit in well with her dog, and we got many great pictures from Sarah to update us while we were away. We were super comfortable with our dog's stay even though we had never left him with anyone before. I heartily recommend Sarah for you and your dog.”

“Dustin and Maggie are terrific! They are so nice and treated our pup, Chico, like their own. We got lots of pictures and Chico had a great time! Highly recommend! Chico is already looking forward to his next visit.”

“Maya was great. She is definitely experienced with dogs and handled our crazy pup very well. She sent us a bunch of photos of our pup while we were on vacation. This was our first time using a dog a sitter and she did everything she could to help us feel at ease through the process.”

“Everything went perfectly. Blossom was made to feel a part of the family, well cared for, given lots of attention and love, and the best possible choice for boarding my precious little dog.”


“Adela took amazing care of my dog Sammy during his 6‑day stay. She sent daily photo updates that gave me so much peace of mind while I was on vacation. She also paid close attention to his behavior and let me know about some anxiety signs she noticed, which will really help me prepare him for future stays in other homes. She even went above and beyond by picking Sammy up so I could finish loading my car—such a thoughtful gesture. I could tell from his photos and his happy, relaxed demeanor when I picked him up that he felt comfortable and loved in her home. Her whole family did a wonderful job caring for him. Highly recommend Adela. If they will have him Sammy will definitely be visiting again.”

“Christine and David were wonderful! They were super flexible with drop off/pick up and sent me pics and updates throughout the day. And Leo loved their huge backyard! Will definitely use again and again!”


About: The doggy door is the best thing about my place — your dog decides when to be outside, into a fully fenced yard. My young goldendoodle will happily play all day. Nights are crated unless your dog does better otherwise; I'll match whatever they're used to. I work full-time, mostly in the office. But my kitchen has a doggy door leading to a fully fenced backyard, so your dog can come and go as they please all day. I also have a 1.5-year-old doodle who gets along well with other dogs and is happy to play or nap, depending on the mood. Evenings and weekends, we walk the neighborhood, play fetch in the backyard, or head to a park or dog café for some socializing. Treats and cuddles to end the day. A fenced yard and a built-in doodle playmate to keep your fur baby company. I crate at night- let me know if your dog isn't used to that. I feed twice a day and give treats throughout, or whatever schedule you'd like, just tell me what your dog is used to.
“Our little senior dachshund, Henry, stayed a few days with Lesley and it went just great! Lesley was an attentive caregiver, even walking Henry separately from her own two (much younger and more energetic) dogs, since he’s slower. She successfully gave him his special supplements and natural treatments, following my exact instructions. Henry seems to have had a good time, too. I was pleased and will definitely use her again!”

About: I have always been passionate about animal care, specifically dogs. I have 3.5 years of veterinary technician experience and have also worked at boarding facilities such as Pet Paradise. I am a student at Saint Louis University majoring in Biology, furthering my education in animal behavior. I enjoy jogging in my spare time, and have the stamina needed to play with or jog with pets. I am available on weekends during the day and most evenings. There’s nothing I love more than taking care of pets! I look forward to taking care of your fur babies! I am a current graduate student, and therefore am working several hours a day during the week, but I am available most nights and on the weekends anytime! I am a helicopter parent when it comes to my own dog, and treat other pets with the same level of care and caution. I love sending pictures (if allowed) to ensure great care, and frequently keeps owners updated on how their fur babies are doing.

Jessica is a wonderful sitter who our dog, Velvet, adores. Jessica is super communicative and sends updates and photos throughout the day. Her house comes srocked with all the amenities. Velvet loves playing and exploring in Jessica's yard and getting spoiled. It's basically a resort for her! :)

Jenay was great and I can tell her and her kids love all the pups that come to their house. My golden retriever ran right into her house when I dropped him off and the daily pics Jenay sent me showed just how much fun he had. It was so lovely to not have to worry about my pup and if he was safe and happy! Will definitely be back next time we are out of town. Highly recommend! She is extremely sweet and responds very quickly which I think all pet parents can appreciate! Thanks again Jenay

Elaine was superb! She was quick to respond with booking, she was welcoming upon our arrival and she sent text with pictures to keep us informed on his status. I was at ease knowing our cat was in Elaine’s care. She and her family offered him a warm and safe environment. Highly recommend!

Morgan was an exceptional host for my 5 month old pup while I was away for work. Great communication and went above and beyond, even gave my dog a bath before pickup. The house had a large backyard and my dog absolutely loved Morgan's other dog and they got lots of playtime in. Thanks, Morgan!

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 .
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.

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 IL ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
