Personalized care for your dog or cat - Des Peres
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Des Peres
“Lorri was great to work with. Zuma was happy and healthy on her return and I have no doubt Lorri treated Zuma as though she as her own. Lorri does a great job of keeping you updated with messages and photos while you are away. It's nice to have that assurance. Will will definitely book with Lorri for future needs.”
“Best experience ever!! Reema was so sweet and took great care of our Maverick over the holidays. She kept in touch and sent photos daily. We would highly recommend her!”
“Our pups completely enjoyed their stay with Misty and her family! They received exceptional care and attention. Misty sent lots of pics during their short stay. We will definitely reach out to Misty again for future boarding.”
“Blake was amazing with my Pups! Picked them up and dropped them off for me. Even clipped their nails. That sounds simple but my lab absolutely hates it (sounds like you are murdering her and takes two people). He sent me a photo of her relaxed and smiling lol. Absolutely will be using him again”
“Raina was great with our fur baby. She sent us updates everyday. Raina was also flexible and understanding of our situation since we were leaving town for an extended period. Thank you so much Raina. I will use her again in the future.”
“I was a nervous mom when it comes to where my fur baby was going to stay while I went on vacation and I am so thankful that I ran into Laura on the rover.com site she was so very nice and warm and always smiling made things very easy and she sent me pictures and videos of my dog so that I could still feel close and be part of his life.. my dog loved her so much that I'm not so sure he wanted to come home with me lol”
“Lucy had a great stay with Carly and Doug. We got several messages and pictures during our trip, and she seemed to get along very well with them and their dog. Lots of exercise and attention. We'll definitely contact them again the next time we're going out of town. Thanks so much!”
“Jennifer and Sharon were absolutely awesome! They kept great communication throughout my entire trip and made sure to send a surplus of pictures and videos which is exactly what I needed since I missed my cats so much!”

“Melinda was great with Sonny. She listened to me as I explained my dog's needs since he is an older dog. Despite not having a fence she explained how she keeps the dogs under her care safe. I would rebook with Melinda again.”
“J is very experienced with dogs and his home is very well equipped for them! My dogs very much enjoyed their stay, they were a little sad for a few days after I picked them up! Would 100% use J again”
“I am totally happy about Molly’s stay with Laronna. Laronna and her parents cared for Molly like she was their own. Laronna sent me pictures and information about Molly every day, which helped me relax and not worry about her. Also, I’m sure Molly enjoyed being with Laronna’s sweet little dog and having a nice backyard to use. Molly looked beautiful and happy when I picked her up. I highly recommend Laronna to anyone who needs someone to look after their fur baby.”
“Jacob is a wonderful pet sitter. He took care of my two cats and kept me updated with pics and notes about how they were doing. One of my cats’ had trouble adjusting but he encouraged her everyday to come out of her safe place. She finally came out on the last day. So I will definitely use him again. By the way he took my cats in an emergency situation and contacted me right away. Thank you to Rover, but mostly a huge shout out and thank you to Jacob.”
“Per our dog, he had a great time at Lesley’s. I was impressed with the questions she asked and the communication while we were away. I won’t hesitate to use her in the future.”
“Jerry had a great time at Francie's. She was great at keeping me updated and sent lots of pictures. It is great to feel comfortable leaving your fur baby knowing that they will be well cared for.”
“Katie was great! She kept us updated during our pet's stay with her and sent plenty of photos. We will definitely be contacting Katie again for future pet sitting needs!”

“Sarah did a wonderful job taking care of our two kittens for our first trip away from them. She met us for a "meet and greet" during which she was engaging and observant. The progress reports and photos from her visits were very sweet and detailed. We will definitely have Sarah provide care for our kittens the next time we travel.”
“Absolutely wonderful!! Danny and Jennifer were very communicative and quick to respond. They went above and beyond for our cat and I feel very comfortable leaving my little guy with them. 10/10 would request them again. Thanks for the amazing service!”
“Mike and Beth are great. Have had several sitters in the past and he was the first sitter that was on top of everything and knew how to follow instructions. He gave awesome updates, which was highly appreciated . Was flexible when I had to make changes to reservation. Highly recommend.”
“Haley took great care of Bia. She was easy to communicate with, easygoing and hit it off with Bia the instant they met. I felt totally confident that Bia was in good hands with Haley!”
“Sarah did a great job taking care of our cat. I loved the daily photos and was pleased to see that Sarah was able to win over our normally standoffish kitty! It gave us great peace of mind to know all was well at home while we were away.”
“Kiffin always goes above and beyond for our girl. She will clean up any messes that our pup made while she was alone, always gives her what she needs, and had even been known to stay a few extra minutes for our girl sometimes! It’s Kiffin or no one for our household!”
“This was our second time booking Mason to care for our cats, and once again, he did an amazing job. His daily reports were thorough, and we appreciated the detailed updates on how each of the cats was doing. The photos he took were a wonderful touch, allowing us to see how happy and well-cared-for they were. Mason truly goes above and beyond, and we feel completely at ease leaving our cats in his care. I highly recommend him for any pet sitting needs!”
“Alicia did an amazing job with my kitty cat while I was overseas for a week. She communicated well, sent plenty of pictures and updates, and overall made it easy to not have to worry about my sweet girl while I was away and 8 hours ahead. She was also super respectful of my Pinto’s cautious and aloof tendencies which ultimately made my cat more comfortable overall. I came home to happy healthy cat which is all I can ask for. I definitely hope to book with Alicia again in the future.”
“Liza did an amazing job with my cat Smudge! They played for about an hour every day, she sent tons of updates and pictures which I loved and it made me feel a ton better about leaving her. Smudge needs eye drops daily because of a surgery, and Liza handled it no problem! Smudge loved hanging out with her, I would absolutely rebook.”
“Jessica was great! Communicated well before and during the drop in visits. She cared for my cats as if they were her own, my cats also LOVED her and felt very comfortable. I plan to rebook with Jessica in the future for any other needs! Also she took the cutest photos of my fur babies!!”
“Bennett was so great with our two "high energy", playful, cuddly cats! It was clear how much he genuinely enjoyed spending time with them as if they were his own. Was so happy to have found him and would recommend him to anyone looking for a sitter.”
“My dog LOVES Nicholas. He took the time to bond with her. He is reliable and kind. My mind was at ease knowing Nicholas was there to feed, walk, and comfort my dog.”
“Rachel handled a minor medical emergency with grace. Appreciate the extra effort required to get my cat to the vet and to fill her prescription. House looks great and my cat is safe and happy”
“Lesley did a wonderful job of taking care of our cat while we were away for a trip. She was very responsive and provided numerous updates on how our cat was doing. Our cat has medical issues and needs someone to stay overnight and Lesley did a fantastic job. We will definitely book with Lesley again!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Des Peres
“Sarah was amazing with my baby Soup! She is super friendly and very responsive. She took care of Soup like her own and sent lots of pictures and updates, which I really appreciated. I felt completely at ease the whole time. Highly recommend her! 😊”
“Holy Smokes! Jeanne was so sweet and so kind to our new puppy. We are road tripping as a family and took our kids to Six Flags. Chip got to hang out with this lovely lady! She sent the best pictures and was very responsive. Highly recommend!”
“Reema was amazing! Her pup and mine played so well together, it was the perfect play date! She also sent lots of pictures and updates throughout the day. I would trust Reema to watch our girl again in a heartbeat ☺️”
“Ashlie and Phillip were great with my pup! Excellent communication both before and during our stay. Their home is a perfect environment for any dog who loves getting lots of attention and outdoor play.”
“Holly is so kind and caring! My dog loves going to her house. She watched him for me while I am at work. I really appreciate her flexibility with my schedule since it changed every week. She send photos of my dog throughout the day to keep me updated. Super happy I found her and will continue to use her to watch my dog.”
“Our pups had such a good time with Hailie and her partner. Hailie allowed our dogs time to warm up to her and her partner and family dog, took them out on potty breaks, gave them treats, and allowed them to snuggle with them on the couch. She also sent me some great pictures at the end of the night. It’s clear they are pet lovers which is so appreciative. We look forward to the next time!”
“Francie was fantastic, plenty of playtime and outside time for my little Gía with other small pups. She was flexible with pickup times and took great care of my little girl. Will definitely use her services again. Thanks, Francie!”
“My pup did daycare with Raini for 2 days. Everything went great and he was a happy pup! She has a great fenced in backyard for dogs and she sent lots of pictures and videos. This was our first experience using Rover and it was a good one.”
“Julie was a life saver! We were stood up by our original sitter, and she took Yuna in last minute. It felt reassuring to leave Yuna with her. Even though it was just for the afternoon, it seemed she got along with Julie's dogs and was exercised enough to have her sleep all throughout our road trip back home! Also kept us updated with pictures which was great.”
About: Charismatic and outgoing animal lover with 16 years experience owning pets, and hundreds of hours volunteering at the humane society in 3 different states. I grew up with cats, but could not own a dog until I moved out on my own, so I quickly got my first baby Alice the first chance I could. My fur babies include a 13 year old sweet beagle mix, Alice 🌈 and two gentle loving cats, Poppy and Millie. All of my animals have been around other animals their whole lives and get along with all creatures. I prefer not to board cats, but can keep your cat in a closed bedroom for their stay. I would love to open my doors to help out families in need of a more personal way to board their pets when they are away. Your animals must get along with cats and small children. I have a very flexible schedule so I have the ability to care for your pet throughout the day, depending on your pets individuals needs. My pets have free range of the house. Visitors dogs can be crated if needed or have free range of the house if ok left unsupervised.
“Summer has great communication and care for dogs! We had a rather last minute day care request and she was quick to schedule a meet and greet and helped make sure our dog was comfortable while at their home despite his being nervous. Provided us updates throughout the day. We look forward to booking with her again!”
“Annie and her family were great! Emma loved visiting with them for the day. I was initially concerned that Emma would be hesitant to stay. But she surprised me by walking right in and heading off to explore the house. She didn’t even come back to the door to say goodbye! What a surprise. I really think the Meet and Greet we did before the doggy day visit was a good introduction to the family and the house for Emma. I highly recommend This lovely family to take care of your special loved one.”
“Lots of communication and updates, Mango got along well with their dog, Sable, as well. Daycare card was very informative and everything was taken care of for Mango. Would highly recommend.”
“Anusha and her family are too good to work with. Our Pluto was kept very lovingly and utmost care. I kept receiving their playful pics and videos while Pluto was having a good time with all of them. It’s so good and a big relief to see Pluto been left with someone who will treat him with the same love and care that he gets at home. Will be coming back again and again.”
About: I’ve been up around animals my whole life and have experience with all different types. I’m comfortable with pets at every stage, from energetic puppies and kittens to senior pets who need a little extra patience and care. I’m reliable when it comes to sticking to routines, whether that’s specific feeding times, multiple daily walks, or just giving your pet the attention they’re used to. I genuinely love spending time with animals and will treat your pet like my own while you’re away. I work remotely, so I’m home throughout the day and able to give pets plenty of attention, potty breaks, and playtime. I also go on several walks throughout the day for dogs that need extra exercise or energy release. I’m available for boarding in my home, as well as drop-in visits and check-ins throughout the day depending on your pet’s needs and routine. I have a fenced-in yard where dogs can safely run around and explore, and I always make sure pets are supervised and comfortable while in my care. I’m happy to follow any feeding schedules, medication instructions, crate routines, or special requests to help your pet feel at home. I can care for pets at my house or make visits to your home throughout the day to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible.

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Des Peres
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have always helped my parents take care of them! I now have a black lab of my own :) I’m available full time for walks, drop ins, boarding, house sitting, and doggy daycare! Please reach out as I’m ready to help take care of your pets 😊 I can provide any service except dog training! We have a fenced in back yard and black lab that gets along well with other dogs. Your pet must be potty trained, vaccinated, and neutered/spayed. I do accept more than 1 dog at a time so your dog must get along well with other dogs. I typically don’t have more than 2-3 dogs at a time.
About: Hi! I’m Claire — a lifelong dog lover with 15+ years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. From daily walks to overnight care, I treat every dog like family (because that’s exactly how they deserve to be treated). I share my home with my 4 year-old chocolate lab, Clark, who is friendly, playful, and always excited to make new dog friends. If your pup enjoys companionship, playtime, or just having another dog around, Clark is the perfect sidekick. Giving back to animals is a huge part of my life. I regularly volunteer as a dog walker with the Humane Society and have been fostering with Stray Rescue for over 4 years, primarily caring for young puppies (6 weeks–2 years old). Through fostering, I’ve gained extensive experience with: • Potty & crate training • Basic obedience and leash manners • Puppy/dog socialization • Building confidence in shy or nervous dogs I live in a second-floor condo without a fenced yard, but that just means plenty of structured leash walks, potty breaks, and enrichment throughout the day. I’m happy to follow your dog’s normal routine — whether that includes crating, free time, training reinforcement, or extra snuggles. My schedule is can be flexible at times, though it may adjust slightly as work picks up. I do volunteer on Monday afternoons, but I’m always happy to communicate and make sure care aligns with your needs. For safety reasons due to an injury, I’m unable to walk dogs that pull hard on leash — but happy to still chat to see if I’m a good fit! If you’re looking for someone experienced, compassionate, and genuinely passionate about dogs — whether they’re a tiny puppy, an energetic adult, or a shelter favorite — I’d love to care for your pup like one of my own 🐶💛 Currently, my schedule is more flexible but that will change within the next few weeks because of work picking up. I usually dog walk for the Humane Society Monday afternoon, but I am very flexible again, and would be happy to talk about what suits your needs! I live in a condo on the second floor with my chocolate lab. I don’t have a fenced in yard but I take him out plenty on a leash to go to the bathroom and go on walks. I also have them crate trained inside and he loves his crate. I’m comfortable with whatever way you structure your dogs routine. The only thing is I can’t take care of dogs that pull hard on a leash if needed to be walked due to an injury
“Haley was great with my dog! She asked great questions to get to know her beforehand and was very knowledgeable about bigger dogs. I will definitely have her come back!”
“Max is always happy to see Kiffin and she is very easy to communicate with about what you want for your dog. Max needs to be urged along and not sniff every 2 seconds. Kiffin makes sure he gets some decent exercise!”
“Mike was excellent — super communicative and took great care of our pug. (And kindly rescued a package delivery from an impending storm. ?) We will definitely book again!”

I will be a fun break from studying to spend time cuddling, playing, and walking a dog or a cat. I love to let dog sniff cause it’s a good time for there brain to work. I want to be able to take a break and get activity throughout my time studying I want to make sure the pet is safe and can’t get anything to hurt themselves. I never leave pets unattended with toys or treats that are a choking hazard. I want to create a clam environment for them to make them feel as happy as they can
About: I’ve cared for pets of all ages, from playful puppies to gentle seniors. I provide patient, reliable care and treat every pet like family, ensuring comfort, safety, and love. I work from home everyday of the week except Wednesdays so I have a very flexible schedule to take care of if your pets! On Wednesdays I am usually home before 2pm so your pet would not be left alone for long periods of time ever. Your pet’s safety always comes first. I provide a clean, calm environment, fresh water, supervision, and plenty of love so they feel secure and happy.
“Anna was so great with walking our dog, Cleo! She came over the day before to learn about Cleo’s routines & get a layout of the house and yard. Anna walked Cleo & played fetch with her in the yard. She also sent pictures :) we will definitely be using Anna in the future for our drop-in and walking needs!”
“Jessica is great! She is flexible with my schedule and treats my pup like one of her own. Phoebe gets so excited to see her. Jessica helps me feel less guilty about having to leave my fur baby while I’m at work all day. 100% would recommend her!”

About: If I could rescue all the animals and take them home, I would! I'm all about tail wags, butt wiggles, kisses, and snuggles. LOTS of snuggles!

I have experience in administering insulin and other types of medical needs that are vet-approved by you. Every pet is different, so I work with what's best for them. I make sure to keep things familiar and as stress-free as possible. Keeping to their regular routine is especially important. They will miss their hoomans, but I promise to spoil them rotten while you're away!
About: Hi everyone! I'm Lesley and I'm incredibly excited to work with as many pets as I can! I'm a lifelong animal lover who understands the desire that every pet parent has: to make sure your friend is safe, loved, and having fun!

“Candace has been great to work with! She's very communicative, reliable, consistent, timely. Not to mention, she obviously cares very much about my Harvey and takes great care of him! She goes the extra mile to play with him and pet him, depending on his mood, and always cleans up if he's had an accident in the house before she arrives. Candace also takes very cute pictures of Harvey on their walks, which I always appreciate.”
About: I have been pet sitting for the past 10 years in St. Louis, MO with a variety of dogs, cats, lizards, snakes, fish, and more! I love animals with my whole heart and would be more than happy to show them the love I know they’re deserving of!

“Beth watched our 14 yr old Yorkie and 13 mos old “very spirited” Cavapoo. She is very knowledgeable and passionate about dogs and was able to creatively channel our Cavapoo’s energy. We actually learned a few things ourselves. Her daughter and son were so polite and helped make sure our dogs had an enjoyable stay. We appreciated the pictures, text, and videos Beth sent on how well our dogs were doing. This was our first experience with Rover and would highly recommend Beth!”
“Julia took great care of Nixon! It seemed like he really liked her and he became super comfortable around her when he stayed at her place! Will definitely book again with Julia if I go out of town again!”
“Great service! My dog Pompeii was well taken care of. He had loads of fun and was very active while being taken care of while I was out of town for my daughter's wedding. Great communication along with photo updates during his stay. Highly recommended!”
About: I have always had a dog and cat in my life (and still do!). I have been using Rover for two years and I don't seem to want to stop anytime soon. I have trained two golden retrievers and walked a lot of puppies, senior dogs and many ages in-between. One of my own dogs was awarded canine good citizenship before my children were born. I love being around animals and I have a caring nature. Now that my kids are getting older, it fits my need to get exercise and bring some joy into my life. I would love to give your pet some snuggles, snacks and I am always mindful to send lots of photos to ensure you can relax while you are away. I know that is what I would want as a pet owner. Some people think you have to either be a "dog person" or a "cat person". Not me! They both have a place in my heart for very different reasons. Cats take some time, but I love their comforting purr, the playfulness of spunky kittens or just petting their soft fur. Some owners simply just someone they can trust for a check-in. I am happy to provide the details needed so you can be OK while you are away. I am typically available in the afternoons as long as I don’t have a meeting scheduled (I work from home) and most evenings are available. Weekends are the best time to book care if you will be out for soccer games, dinner or long evening plans. I have kids as well and I have used Rover for 6+ years on my own pets. I am excited to return the favor to you now that my kids are older. I have used crates with my own pets during training and I will follow whatever safety instructions are needed. I understand all collars, how to avoid run ins with feisty dogs and other concerns you may have. I know how to troubleshoot dogs that like to find hiding spots or have the ability to slip out of the door. I am 40+ and I am raising tweens at this point, so I have a little wisdom under me that other walkers may not have at this point. I am also trustworthy. I have a great full-time job coupled with flexibility. I just want to combine my love of pets with a little extra income.
“Once again Cynthia has shined !!! I couldn't be happier with the service they provided. She kept me updated throughout the stay with photos and texts, which put my mind at ease. I highly recommend Cynthia to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter, they are truly wonderful. Would definitely use again.”
“Karen was great with my timid little terrier mix, McKenzie! She sent pictures and updates daily which helped ease my worried mind! McKenzie loves walks and Karen's lovely neighborhood was the perfect setting. I highly recommend Karen and will definitely book her again if needed.”
“Sonja was so accommodating. She was very flexible, helpful and patient. I liked that she offered a meet and greet, provided photos and updates. I could tell my Lady enjoyed her stay.”
“Annie and Michael were the perfect sitters for us. We had an extended board at their home and were a little nervous as our Great Pyrenees had never boarded for this length of stay. Also, we had some medication that needed to be given with little notice. No Worries! Annie was calm and communicative and her three boys were loving with our big doggie. Lots of cute photos and instance response. Thank you so very much for your care!”
