“Omg!! Margaret was heaven sent! Our cousin didn’t answer his door to get our pup just 4 1/2 short hours before our flight boarded out of Stl. I ran to Rover and begged for a last minute board. Margaret graciously accepted Teddy into her home and took such good care of him. She was very communicative and kept me informed of how he was doing over this 3 day stay. Our flights were delayed by over 12 hours she was very flexible and allowed him to stay an extra day with no problem. If you are seeking a communicative, kind, nurturing and flexible board, I 10/10 recommend her!”
About: I ran a prison dog rescue and training program. We rehabilitated dogs from puppy mills, rescue groups and shelters. We also did grooming services for the dogs. I'm retired. My schedule is wide open. I have time to devote to taking care of customers pets. I have always had a affinity for taking care of animals. I live in a Townhouse in a nice area with plenty of green space. I enjoy walking dogs who come to my house or walking them from their house.
“I had to find a dog sitter last minute when our care fell through and I felt comfortable leaving g Zoey with Catlyn after our first conversation! I got updates when I asked, she made sure Zoey was comfortable and happy. Will definitely use Catlyn again!”
“I really appreciated Jennifer's flexibility with pick up and drop off. Zorro loved his time there. He got to play with Jennifer's other dogs and because Jennifer has children he played with a child which Zorro absolutely loves since he doesn't interact with children much. She has a backyard which was a great plus!”
About: I have grown up around and loved pets since I was 7 years old! Many parts of my childhood I grew up with 5 dogs, but we just recently got our first cat. My partner is also an animal lover and grew up with multiple pets his entire life (his mom is a veterinarian!). We now have a 6 month old dachshund, Clover, and a cat, Stella Dallas! We are students so we have really relaxed schedules, and spend a lot of our time working from home. We live in a house that has a large privacy fence with a perfect sized backyard. We joined Rover to share our love with your animals! 🥰🐾 My partner and I are both students and I work a remote job. We spend a lot of our time not in class at home with our animals! I have a fenced in yard with a privacy fence. My dog Clover will keep your dog company as she loves to play with all of her cousins! Clover is crate trained so I have experience with that, but I don’t mind if your dog is not! I spend a lot of my time at home so your pup or cat will always be getting attention and the love they deserve while you’re away! :)
“My dog, Biggie’s, stay with Natalie was so great, I almost wish I could keep her a secret! Natalie did a great job taking care of Biggie and her home was a great place for him to stay. He seemed so relaxed and comfortable from the very beginning and Natalie did a great job sending pictures and updates. We definitely plan to use her again!”
About: Hi there! My name is Sofia and I am a medical student at Mizzou Med and would LOVE to walk your dog! I have been caring for my dog for 11 years and before that I watched friends’ dogs for long periods of time. If you couldn’t tell, I absolutely LOVE all dogs. Dogs hold a very special place in my heart, and I am an extremely trustworthy person to leave your 4-legged family member with! I understand the importance of finding a walker/ sitter you can trust as I do not trust just anyone to take care of my own pup, and I will do an excellent job of keeping your baby safe and happy. I would be so happy to walk, feed, and play with your dog! I will adjust my schedule to whatever your pet requires! I am very enthusiastic about taking care of dogs, so your pup will be my number 1 priority. The main thing I care about is NEVER leaving your dog unattended!! I am super responsible and I would never want anything to happen to your dog under my watch. I am also very energetic and love playing with dogs, so your dog will never be bored.
“Kaila and her pup were so awesome. She was so accommodating finding a time for a meet and greet during the holidays, and again when our pick up plans changed. She sent lots of photos and videos of my dog living her best life for the weekend. Georgia had a great time and came home exhausted from playing so hard. We will absolutely book Kaila again!”
“Haley was amazing with our pups over our weekend away. She sent picture updates often, and when we picked up our pups, we could tell they had been loved on the whole time. Haley’s own dogs were also very sweet with our girls, despite the big size difference. You can tell how much she and her husband love dogs! We will absolutely reach back out to Haley.”
“Absolutely wonderful! First time using Sabine, my chocolate lab Morgan was well taken care of. And very tired from all the fun she had. Sabine gave my constant updates and pictures which always helps when you have to be away from your best friend. Would absolutely recommend her, and I will be a continuing client.”

“Highly recommended, Naee went above and beyond for our fur-baby Star. We will definitely be coming back to her again when we need the help ? Thanks so much for taking great care of our ⭐️”

“Margaret made sure our cat had food and water as well as a clean litter box while we were away for 2 weeks. She made sure he got the attention and play time he needed in order to not get too lonely. It made us feel more at ease being gone for so long knowing he was getting attention and cared for.”
“Taylor was so communicative and friendly! She listened carefully to care and feeding instructions and asked questions for anything I didn't cover — like my cats' favorite toys :) I can tell she truly loved spending time with my cats as if they were her own and would love to have her watch them again!”
“Hailea did a great job with our kitties. One of our kitties loves attention and she was sure to offer it. The other was not as kind and Hailea respected his personal space. She sent photos of both kitties and shared their temperament during her visits. We don't go out of town often, but when we do, we will be requesting her again!”
“Evie did great checking in on our animals while we were out of town. Our dogs have big personalities and this was our first time using Rover so we were a little nervous. Evie came to meet them first and seemed completely calm and comfortable from meet and greet to last visit. She even cleaned up messes they made. We are very happy with the service we got!”
About: My family has had cats since I was born, and when ny mom saved a litter of kittens from the busy road, I learned especially to treat such small creatures with care. I can bottle feed kittens and match their playful energy. As an adult I have 2 of my own cats and am the go-to call for cat sitting my sister’s and aunt’s cats.
“Another great job by Kimberlee. It's obvious she really loves pets, and takes such great care of my Precious. I always know my pet is in good hands with Kimberlee. One of the best.”
“Konnor patiently waited through a delay the office had to let him into the building. He looked after Finn as good as any could expect and protected our dog’s needs as an anxious dog.”

Prices are estimates per day. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
About: My home is a dog lover's dream — two friendly dogs already live here and are always ready to make new friends. We have a fully fenced backyard (please make sure your pets are on flea and tick medicine as ticks have been bad this year), loads of indestructible toys (thanks, BarkBox!), and an open-door policy between inside and out, so your pup can roam, play, and lounge whenever they please. I work from home full-time, which means your dog is never left alone — I'm always here. Dogs are welcome on the furniture, in the bed, wherever they're happiest. This is their vacation too. Whether your dog needs a playmate, a cozy couch to nap on, or both, they'll feel right at home. Pet care is genuinely woven into my day, not something I have to carve out time for. Since I work from home full-time, I'm always present — whether that's taking a mid-morning break to play in the backyard, keeping an eye on the pack while I'm at my desk, or just being available if anyone needs a cuddle or a quick romp outside. My own two dogs set the rhythm of the day — morning energy bursts, afternoon lounging, outdoor time whenever the mood strikes. Guest dogs just fold right into that routine. There's always someone to play with, always a sunny spot to nap in, and always a human nearby. My home is set up to be as dog-friendly as possible. The backyard is fully fenced, so dogs have safe, free access to outdoor space all day long — no leash required for backyard time. Inside, they're treated like family: furniture is fair game, the bed is open, and there are plenty of indestructible toys to keep them entertained. With two resident dogs already in the mix, guest dogs are never bored or lonely. There's always a playmate available, and I'm always nearby since I work from home full-time. I keep a close eye on group dynamics to make sure everyone is comfortable and playing nicely. I aim to keep routines as close to what your dog is used to as possible — feeding schedules, rest time, outdoor play — so the transition feels easy and low-stress for them. My goal is simple: your dog goes home happy, tired, and already looking forward to their next visit.
“A great and safe home for your wee doggie. Ximena has two adorable and sweet doggies, a pug and a chihuahua. Ximena’s family are very friendly and helpful. You’ll feel like your doggie’s going to have a fun and safe day at Ximena’s house!”
“Shannon was very patient and accommodating while we tried to figure out if we would need her or not. And I'm confident our little Lily was in good hands with her. Had a very positive, easy experience...highly recommend Shannon!”
“Caleb accepted our last minute booking and was very accommodating. We had a really early drop off and a late pickup and they had no issue with that. Curry had a great time with their family. Would definitely recommend him to anyone who needs daycare services!”
About: My family has had cats ever since I was 12, I also rescued a goldendoodle 8 years ago and he has been my best friend ever since. I love all types of animals, and have experience with rabbits, horses, guinea pigs, and hamsters as well. I have been pet sitting and dog walking as a vet student for over a year now. I am a veterinary student in my clinical rotation years. I live in a duplex, meaning I have my own house with no roommates. It is a 2 bedroom, 1 bath. I can pet sit from your house if you have multiple pets and are gone for days or pet sit from my own place if you have just a cat or a smaller dog. I live in a duplex at the moment by myself without any pets, but I pet sit for friends a lot, driving over to their places to let the dogs out/walk them, feed the cats/dogs/fish and clean the litter boxes, make sure the water bowls are filled, etc.

“Jennie is awesome! We needed someone to come over and let our 2 dogs out mid-day, walk them and play with them a bit. She has gone above and beyond and has exceeded our expectations. I highly recommend her. She’s a star!”
About: I have always had pets in my house that I have taken care of. I love animals, and would love to help out! I consistently walk, feed, and play with my dogs at home. I also have done a ton of volunteering and fostering at local animal shelters! I’m am currently a senior at mizzou, but I have a very relaxed schedule this semester, due to the fact that most of my courses are online. I plan on doing my best to make the dog as comfortable as possible while I am the caretaker. I want to meet and respect the owners needs!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, puppies, and senior dogs since I was 5! We are a dog loving family looking forward to loving on new friends! I am currently a stay at home mom with great flexibility and I have 4 kids from 10-17 who also loving caring for dogs and animals. We have an invisible fenced yard, lots of paths for walking, lots of extra toys, plenty of treats, and a large yard for them to play with our senior pup.
About: I have worked in professional pet care for 4 years and have been watching neighbors dogs for the past 2 years. At doggy daycare I have worked with all sizes and ages of dogs and am comfortable with all of them. I am currently and student at The University of Missouri but am still able to come to your house to watch your pet. I can stay at your house during the week or weekend, my classes schedule is pretty full so it might be harder for me to be at your house during the week day but my weekends are typically open and we might be able to work out a schedule for the weekdays! I have three dogs at home that I am very used to taking care of as well as my cat. I can follow your pets schedule so there is no difference in your care and mine.
About: I’ve loved animals my whole life and my kitties mean the absolute world to me. I’ve had cats for 6 years and have lots of friends with dogs that I love to play with and take care of. It would be a pleasure to take care of anyone’s pets and to meet your sweet babies! I work another part time job so I’m some what flexible with my schedule! I can sit for as long as needed per visit and can take care of any animal with all needs met. I can safely take your dog on walks and clean up after them by ensuring their harness is secure and give them all the love they deserve!
About: I have many years of personal care with animals. Although I have not professionally cared for pets, animals are my world and I would love to give each animal the care and love they deserve! You have my trust, responsibility, and punctuality guaranteed. I am currently completing nurse practitioner school full time in Columbia, MO & I am currently not working. I would love to spend my free time taking care of others’ fur babies! I have two dogs and two cats of my own in our home. Each of these animals are easily separable to your own pet if needed!
About: Growing up, I’ve never went without a pet in my house. From puppies, to senior dogs, I have experience with it all! Mainly, I dogsit for dogs and cats but I’ve also owned rodents consistently throughout my whole life (hamsters, guinea pigs, bunnies, etc) so I have vast experience with those as well if needed! I’m a current college student with a passion for petsitting looking to provide excellence service to any and all pets you have! I’m available 24/7 on weekends! I do same day booking, though I would especially prefer at least a days notice for in-house stays. For drop-ins and walks, I am available for same day bookings! In my home, safety is one of our main priorities. I always make sure anything that is hazardous is picked up off the floor. Same with our elderly dog, to prevent tripping. I do several bathroom breaks a day, making sure to play with them hands on, and pet them to let them know they’re loved too. Im constantly checking food and water, and I would apply these same things in my clients’ homes. I’m used to the crazy with all of mine, so bring on the chaos!
About: I have taken care of pets ever since I was little! My mom owned a rescue and we have several pets of our own. I have experience taking care of dogs, cats, chickens, and lizards. I have taken care of pups 0-16, and some with special needs like medication and specific diets! I am currently home on winter break from college, so rest assured I will have plenty of time for your pup! I am a very outdoorsy person, and love to go on hikes and walks! I have an unfenced yard (around 2 acres), and a neighborhood nearby that I walk my own dog in. I have one friendly dog and four cats. I am able to take care of any special needs or requests your pet might have!
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life! I grew up with a mini dachshund and cared for him as he got older and became a senior pup. I’ve also cared for other senior dogs, and I have a special love for them, they deserve all the extra snuggles and attention. I also got a puppy when I was younger, so I know how to keep up with all that energy! With experience from puppyhood to senior care, I’m comfortable walking dogs, giving them plenty of love, and making sure they feel happy and safe. I recently moved to the area and I am looking for something to do. My schedule is pretty open and would love to fill it with pet care. When caring for a client's pet I always make sure to follow any rules the client has given me. I make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and snuggles while also keeping up with their feeding schedule, potty breaks, and walks.
About: I have been surrounded by animals my entire life and have so much love for them. Whether it’s a playful day outside running around with my dogs playing fetch or a rainy, gloomy day where I was feeling down my dogs were always my best friend. Their comfort is unlike anything else and I truly feel they know when something is wrong with people and having that companionship is so helpful. We as humans may have multiple pets throughout our lives, but our pets only have us for their short time with us. It’s our responsibility to provide them with all of the love and care in the world. Their lives revolve around us and what we do, they deserve to live their best lives while they’re here with us. I treat every animal as if they were my own! I work full time dog sitting and couldn’t ask for anything better! The best coworkers anyone could ask for! Multiple drop ins a day and many, many walks throughout the day! I treat every pet as if it were my own! Each fur baby gets individual attention as well as time to play with the others pups. I can keep them separated if/as needed. Each individual pet will be taken care of according to the owners preferences!

“Nicole is the BEST! Sent tons of pictures and gave multiple updates throughout our babies’ stay with her. Nicole was communicative & accommodating and we will be booking with her again!!”
“Stephanie is the best. She was able to take my frenchie at the last minute and he had the best time! She gave great updates throughout his visit and loves my pup like he’s her own:)”
“Erin did a great job taking care of my puppy for the weekend! When I went to drop Lottie off she brought her dog down so that they could meet on neutral territory, which was really nice and during the weekend she text me updates and pics every day. I liked that she only took one pet at a time in addition to hers, that made me feel much safer leaving my puppy there. I would definitely recommend and use her services again!”
“Nicole is amazing—she’s incredibly kind and gentle. During our greeting before the first overnight stay, she gave both dogs plenty of time to get to know each other. Nicole has trained Cora very well, and at the first meeting she carefully observed the interaction between the dogs and rewarded them appropriately. She’s a Rover with a lot of experience in dog training. She also shared lots of photos with me!”
“Donna was very helpful with my last minute request. She had time to invite me over so Kushito can meet her pack before the stay. She kept me updated with videos and pictures of him! She has an amazing outdoor space. He was very happy when I picked him up and I could tell he had a lot of fun during his stay!”
“Our dog had a great time boarding with Lisa. There was lots of love, outdoor time, and playtime with the sweet host’s dogs. We had a schedule conflict, and Lisa was very kind and accommodating to our last-minute request. We would love to reserve service with Lisa in the future!”
“Absolutely wonderful! First time using Sabine, my chocolate lab Morgan was well taken care of. And very tired from all the fun she had. Sabine gave my constant updates and pictures which always helps when you have to be away from your best friend. Would absolutely recommend her, and I will be a continuing client.”
