“Victoria was the best host! My 4month puppy, Joy was well taken care of and got play time in a nice fenced yard.I received updates and pics every day and felt good about leaving Joy in her hands. I definitely recommend and would definitely re-book.”
“Angel & Matt are true dog lovers. My dog, Brew, stayed an amazing 13 days with them and was so happy and comfortable. He received lots of love and attention. Plus, thorough daily reports were very helpful.”
“Brock and Rashelle provided exceptional care for my beloved fur baby. Their kindness and affection truly shone through, making my pet feel right at home. He had a wonderful time playing with their pup, and I appreciated the daily walks and outdoor playtime they ensured he had. I also loved receiving regular updates and photos, which brought me peace of mind while I was away. Highly recommend their services!”
“I can't say enough wonderful things about Angie and the exceptional care she provided for my fur baby, Mufasa, while I was away for military training. From the moment I contacted her, I felt at ease knowing my fur baby would be in such loving hands. Angie and her family truly went above and beyond. Mufasa was welcomed not just by Angie, but also by her kids, husband, and even her own pets. It was heartwarming to see how they all embraced him as part of the family. Every day, I received updates filled with photos and messages about his adventures, which kept my spirits high and reassured me that he was doing wonderfully. What impressed me even more was Angie's flexibility when I mistakenly provided the wrong dates for Mufasa's stay. She was incredibly accommodating, ensuring that everything worked out smoothly without any hassle. Her kindness and professionalism shone through in every interaction. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet like their own, Angie is the one! I couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and Mufasa certainly enjoyed his time with her family. Thank you, Angie, for being so amazing! You’ve made a loyal customer out of us! 🐾❤️”
“Our dog Sammi is over 14 years old and I needed a caring sitter for when we went on our 12 day trip. Sammi had stayed at Amanda's house before and liked Amanda and her dog Frankie. This trip was perfect having reassurance that Sammi was in a loving home and AMANDA kept us aware of how Sammi was doing. The picture she sent to us where Sammi was laying in Frankie's bed with Frankie was too cute! I know Sammi had a great stay at Amanda's house and we will use her whenever we need s sitter. Thank you AMANDA!!!”
“Mary is very easy to work with, and professional at the same time. I felt very comfortable with her instantly upon meeting her, and entirely pleased with our interactions. I highly recommend her, and intend to book with her again soon.”
“Fantastic family to leave your furry loved ones with!!.. We are so grateful to have found Jennifer and her caring family to love and spoil our babies. Jennifer was really good at updating us each day and taking pictures of them playing and lounging. Jennifer will always be the first person I contact when we have to leave them behind again.”
“Stephanie takes such great care Bernadette. She gets a lot of outdoor play time in the big back yard with Stephanie’s dogs as well as walks. We get wonderful pictures and updates throughout the stay. We highly recommend her as a sitter! ❤️”
“Dani was amazing! I boarded my two cats for almost two weeks which was the first time I have ever been away from them and I was nervous. She made sure my cats felt comfortable to be in a new environment and loved. I received frequent updates with pictures of my boys and made me feel at ease for boarding my boys.”
“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!!”
About: I’ve taken care of friends dogs, family members dogs, and even volunteered at an animal shelter and was taking care of different animals there.

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.
“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!”
“Catlyn was truly amazing! She is so attentive, sends plenty of pictures, and followed my tedious care instructions! Could not recommend her enough! Also has two of the cutest fur babes of her own! 10/10 would recommend and use her again!”

We are very happy & energetic in our home! My sweet Buster gets along with other animals very well! He's a sweetie! I make sure to do mentally stimulating activities and challenges for Buster! They're so good for dogs! I make them fun and rewarding! I can do that for your baby too! I work full-time. And when I come home, my attention is on my pup- getting his energy out and having fun! If your request is for house sitting, I would need to bring my dog along with me. I'm home all evenings and all weekends. On the weekend, especially, I'll be available to do all the caring for your sweet babe!! The #1 thing is I don't give my dog people food. If I do, he only gets safe fruits & veggies and cheese. I don't have anything a dog could choke on or really swallow. I put Buster in a kennel when I'm gone, but I could leave your dog out if they don't do kennels. Please ask me questions if you have any!
“Haley was the perfect fit for my scaredy dog. He has trouble adjusting to new things and Haley was so gentle and brought him out of his shell. It was an amazing experience and we will definitely be going back.”

“Josie was awesome! She is so caring; she sent me wonderful updates and pictures every day. I was not worried about my kitties at all because I knew they were in great hands. I’ll definitely book her again.”

“Mrs. Mary was so so wonderful and accommodating! I was just a nervous wreck when I left my Tilly home, that the beginning of my vacation wasn’t even enjoyable. However, after her updates I began to feel so much better knowing I had someone there who was really taking her. I would rebook Mary again in a heartbeat.”

She was patient, loving, kind and most importantly was reliable in my absence. Really appreciated her being able to provide daily updates during drop ins! Can’t recommend her enough and will be rebooking her in the future for sure!”
About: We’re back! We took a break to have our two wonderful children and now we’re ready to take care of your pets again! My husband, Josh, and I are a team. We have been pet sitters for family and friends for many years. We love animals and we always treat them like our own. We both grew up in homes where our pets were like another family member and we grew up as animal lovers. We are unable to bring your pet to our home or stay the night at your home, but we would be willing to come to your home any time during the day to take care of your pets when you are away. Whether that is for a vacation, business trip, or when you are unable to make it home from work to let your dogs out to go potty. Brittany is a 4th grade teacher and Josh is a medical vendor. Our schedules don’t align so we are available at different times giving us a wider range of availability for you and your pets. We treat your pets and home with respect. We are able to drop by to take care of your pet or take your dog for a walk.
About: I have worked in pet care taking care of cats who are boarded while pet parents are away. I pay very close attention to any small details, behavior abnormalities, or anything that could be a medical issue. I have an attention to detail that is often needed with cats, because they do not communicate with us like dogs do.

About: I am a huge animal lover. We have 3 cats and a shepherd mix dog. I also have a 4 and a 6 year old, so any animals must be good with other animals, kids and able to be crated at night as our dog is also crated. I love and have taken care of many animals and enjoy all fur babies! I am a graduate student so I am home most of the day besides an hour or so for class so fur babies are well cared for and get plenty of attention. My husband also WFH so someone is typically always home. Our yard is unfenced so dogs will have to be leashed for potty time. My dog is crated at night and when we’re not home. Our cats free roam the house, so we just ask that your pet is friendly with cats.
“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!”
“Christine is the best dog sitter you could ever want for your pup. She is so kind and doesn’t mind if I drop Izzy off early. I feel my dog always has a great time and is safe with Christine.”
“Haley, I thank you and your family for welcoming Molly for a safe, fun day while I was away! Haley’s home doggie daycare was a wonderful experience for my dog. Haley provides a comfortable home environment, a great backyard, lots of playtime and interaction with other dogs and members of her family. Thanks again!”
“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!”
“My dog has been getting daycare services with Ximena for about 3 weeks now and I couldn't be happier. Ximena is literally the most lovely and kind person I have ever met. She treats my dog as if she's one of her own. Ximena and her family are truly lovely people who genuinely love dogs. They always go above and beyond during my dogs visits, take tons of photos and give consistent updates. They cater to my dog and take such good care of her. I'm so happy that I found Ximena and I have no plans of ever taking her anywhere else.”
“Jennifer and James were such a God-send when Spenser and I were getting married last week!! Our wedding venue allowed for our doggie to be present at the ceremony (she walked the aisle in a flower collar and pearl leash :)!) but not reception, and so we needed not only a dog sitter but one who would be willing to pick up our girl from the wedding venue! James was happy to do it, showed up right on time, and our Chewie happily went with! They sent us cute pics of our babygirl relaxing on their couch and playing in their backyard during the wedding reception. It really put us at ease. We've never had to turn to Rover for dog sitting, usually we have family do it (obviously not an option when the whole family and friend-crew is at the wedding), but now that we know how amazing James and Jennifer are, we are forever grateful and liable to ask for their help again! Thanks SO much!!”
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.
“Nicole is so kind, providing great feedback and a great environment for Archie. He loved playing with Cora as well. She was very responsive, and it's clear she loves animals. Great caregiver.”
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.
About: Evan grew up on a farm and has been around a rotating cast of animals his whole life including dogs, cats, horses, and a llama. Gabrielle still routinely provides care for her family's 12-year-old golden doodle, Millie and loves dogs of all sizes breeds and personalities. We can't wait to hang out with your pups! we love walks, playtime and cuddles. Evan is a writer who works from home, and Gabrielle is a yoga teacher who is in and out depending on the day. we are home a lot because our dog has separation anxiety! We have a small fenced in yard with gravel and lots of plants. we can go back there for pee breaks and playtime plus we are very close to humboldt park where we love to walk our dog. Our house is cozy and dog friendly. our dog Bruce loves to play and cuddle with other pups
About: I have lots of experience in a lot of different animals. For example: dogs,cats,rabbits, and horses In all age range including some with medication. Pets need lots of love and attention. Keep them fed,watered,walks, or dog park. I trained my pups to bathe without a hassle and brushed without any problems. I also trained my pups to walk off the leash, go home, sit,stay, shake, high fives, up, and roll over. Currently, I’m training my pup to be fully potty trained, to not bark, jump on people when she’s excited, and walk off the leash. I work full time and I am able to do drop in morning and in the evenings when I’m off work. It’s more of a part time job and this is something I love. Pets have free range at my place, I have a dog park, a lot of my stuff are baby proof, if the clients prefer kenneling I have a kennel as well. I prefer to give options to clients and ask questions upon their routine. I can accommodate with the routine they have.
“Because of poor planning on our part, we did not have boarding arrangements last Sunday when we were going to be out of town for the day. Sam and Jesse stepped up and took care of our Dobby for us. As always, they did a great job with him. And they bailed us out of a potentially tough situation. Thanks to Sam and Jesse for all they do!”
“She took us at the last minute and our dogs came home very happy! She genuinely cared about our girls and you can tell her own dog is as happy as can be and loves to play. Definitely will be using her again!”

“Hanna was awesome! We had her watch our puppy three different times when we were in town for graduation weekend and she was amazing! It was so nice to leave knowing that Nugget was in good hands. I highly recommend Hanna!!!”

About: I love all kinds of animals! I have owned and cared for a wide range and animal's. My goal is to make animals have a great life.

I have lots of experience with many ages and levels of trainings of animals I have watched for friends. I am always up for a challenge and I am confident in taking care of your animals.
“Taylor was great! She came over the day before to meet the doggies. Even though the times I originally requested were a little difficult for her schedule that day (it was last minute,) she did all she could to make it as close as possible- and ended up being there about the time I had requested anyway. I scheduled two visits in one day, and while I said the second visit only needed to be a feed and let out in the yard - she asked if they could still go for a walk. :) She was also very observant and noticed a small scratch on one of my dogs, sent a photo, and asked if I wanted her to treat it. I really appreciate all the attentiveness; and the above and beyond she provided for my babies. Most importantly, the dogs seemed to really like her too. :) We are already planning for her to return. Thank you!”
About: I have dog sat for the past 6 years in the Omaha Metro area and in Lincoln NE for several families. I managed the care of 3 large breed dogs for multiple days during several housesitting stays.

We recently located to Columbia MO and are looking for more dog sitting opportunities! I am a full time student in PA school. I usually attend class from 8-2 daily but then I am free from there-on to do tasks as need be which would give me the freedom to go and dog sit! I treat all pets with respect. I know that I wouldn’t want my dogs treated poorly by a new person watching them. I usually take the dogs for a walk or two and then fetch or whatever the usual regimen consists of. I also ensure that dietary restrictions are followed as written.
About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life ranging from puppies to tortoises. I know the hard work that goes into caring for animals and keeping them happy and healthy.

With me as your pet sitter, you won’t have to lift a paw-I mean finger! I am currently working part time so I will have plenty of time for your pups! I am always available Saturday but my schedule varies week to week. I’m usually pretty free so just let me know when you need a sitter and I can work around my other job.

I can play with your animals to keep them entertained and make sure they stay out of trouble.
About: I am a vet student at Mizzou who is open to becoming your go-to person for pet-sitting needs! I am very flexible and willing to negotiate whatever you need to feel comfortable while you are away. This summer I am working at a research facility in which I am only there a few hours a week. So my schedule is pretty open! I live in a duplex house located Northeast of COMO. I'm more open to in-house visits rather than pet sitting where I live, but I'm flexible.
About: I’m a dedicated dog lover with years of hands-on experience providing personalized care for dogs of all ages and needs.

With me, your dog will be treated like family, and you can count on reliable, attentive care every time. Pet care is a priority in my daily routine. I allocate specific time slots each day for feeding, walking, playtime, and any additional care tasks based on each pet's needs. This routine ensures consistency and allows me to provide the best possible care while balancing other responsibilities. Additionally, I schedule regular check-ins and updates with pet owners to keep them informed about their furry friend's well-being. In my home, I provide a safe and comfortable environment for pets under my care. This includes designated areas for eating, sleeping, and playtime, as well as access to outdoor spaces for exercise and bathroom breaks. I adhere to any specific feeding schedules, dietary restrictions, or medication routines outlined by the pet owner.

I also strive to keep the home tidy and secure, respecting the owner's space while providing attentive care to their beloved companion.

About: Hi! I have 6 years of experience as a dog owner of my Beagle, Bo. At home, I have an orange cat named Cheese as well.

During walks, I make sure dogs are always securely leashed and safe at all times, while also giving them the exercise and attention they need. For drop-in visits, I ensure pets are comfortable, have fresh water, and get plenty of attention, playtime, or calm companionship depending on their personality. I’m very respectful of clients’ homes and make sure everything is left exactly as I found it. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is safe and well cared for while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and happiness are always my top priority.

We have been pet sitters for family and friends for many years. We love animals and we always treat them like our own. We both grew up in homes where our pets were like another family member and we grew up as animal lovers. We are unable to bring your pet to our home or stay the night at your home, but we would be willing to come to your home any time during the day to take care of your pets when you are away. Whether that is for a vacation, business trip, or when you are unable to make it home from work to let your dogs out to go potty. Brittany is a 4th grade teacher and Josh is a medical vendor. Our schedules don’t align so we are available at different times giving us a wider range of availability for you and your pets. We treat your pets and home with respect. We are able to drop by to take care of your pet or take your dog for a walk.

About: I have been an animal lover, my entire life! And have cared for a large variety of different animals! Through my family and friends, I’ve had the opportunity to care for many pets, including experiences with a week old puppy and kittens, and also my senior dog who dealt with diabetes and suffered from being blind. Growing up with my senior dog I am completely comfortable administering medicine and providing gentle care. At the end of the day, I just really love being around animals and I know how hard it is to leave them behind. So my main goal is to make sure all pets are happy and safe!! because my schedule is completely flexible pet care fits easily into my life right now! I have plenty of open availability during the day, so I can be very adaptable to your schedule (potty breaks, specific feeding times, midday walk). when visiting a clients home, my first two thoughts are respect and safety for your space! I always make sure to double check the doors and gates are properly locked and always keep a close eye on pets so they do not slip out. and I love keeping owners in the loop. If you’d like a quick text on how it’s going or a photo.

“Victoria was the best host! My 4month puppy, Joy was well taken care of and got play time in a nice fenced yard.I received updates and pics every day and felt good about leaving Joy in her hands. I definitely recommend and would definitely re-book.”
“Angel & Matt are true dog lovers. My dog, Brew, stayed an amazing 13 days with them and was so happy and comfortable. He received lots of love and attention. Plus, thorough daily reports were very helpful.”
“I can't say enough wonderful things about Angie and the exceptional care she provided for my fur baby, Mufasa, while I was away for military training. From the moment I contacted her, I felt at ease knowing my fur baby would be in such loving hands. Angie and her family truly went above and beyond. Mufasa was welcomed not just by Angie, but also by her kids, husband, and even her own pets. It was heartwarming to see how they all embraced him as part of the family. Every day, I received updates filled with photos and messages about his adventures, which kept my spirits high and reassured me that he was doing wonderfully. What impressed me even more was Angie's flexibility when I mistakenly provided the wrong dates for Mufasa's stay. She was incredibly accommodating, ensuring that everything worked out smoothly without any hassle. Her kindness and professionalism shone through in every interaction. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet like their own, Angie is the one! I couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and Mufasa certainly enjoyed his time with her family. Thank you, Angie, for being so amazing! You’ve made a loyal customer out of us! 🐾❤️”
“Fantastic family to leave your furry loved ones with!!.. We are so grateful to have found Jennifer and her caring family to love and spoil our babies. Jennifer was really good at updating us each day and taking pictures of them playing and lounging. Jennifer will always be the first person I contact when we have to leave them behind again.”
“Stephanie takes such great care Bernadette. She gets a lot of outdoor play time in the big back yard with Stephanie’s dogs as well as walks. We get wonderful pictures and updates throughout the stay. We highly recommend her as a sitter! ❤️”
“Dani was amazing! I boarded my two cats for almost two weeks which was the first time I have ever been away from them and I was nervous. She made sure my cats felt comfortable to be in a new environment and loved. I received frequent updates with pictures of my boys and made me feel at ease for boarding my boys.”
“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!!”
“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 was very welcoming and made our first experience with Rover a breeze. She would reach out with updates frequently. You could tell she really cared for our dogs by showing initiative and asking questions. We would definitely love to have Nicole watch our dogs again.”
About: I have training experience & trained my pup myself! We play, snuggle, walk, and continue to practice training every day! I love teaching my pup new tricks, and can do the same for yours! We are very happy & energetic in our home! My sweet Buster gets along with other animals very well! He's a sweetie! I make sure to do mentally stimulating activities and challenges for Buster! They're so good for dogs! I make them fun and rewarding! I can do that for your baby too! I work full-time. And when I come home, my attention is on my pup- getting his energy out and having fun! If your request is for house sitting, I would need to bring my dog along with me. I'm home all evenings and all weekends. On the weekend, especially, I'll be available to do all the caring for your sweet babe!! The #1 thing is I don't give my dog people food. If I do, he only gets safe fruits & veggies and cheese. I don't have anything a dog could choke on or really swallow. I put Buster in a kennel when I'm gone, but I could leave your dog out if they don't do kennels. Please ask me questions if you have any!
“Haley was the perfect fit for my scaredy dog. He has trouble adjusting to new things and Haley was so gentle and brought him out of his shell. It was an amazing experience and we will definitely be going back.”
“Jessica was very flexible and easy to work with, I initially spoke to her well over a month before my vacation to Hawaii and had some bank issues allowing to confirm the payment just the night before, she had zero issues with that. The entire time we received notifications and pictures of our fur babies and their activities. I would highly recommend her for your pet needs. I personally can not thank you enough for your kindness and understanding”
“Weiling took excellent care of Lisa and Maggie. She was always very attentive to their needs and made sure they were comfortable and happy throughout their stay. She sent lots of photos and updates, which gave me great peace of mind, and she absolutely spoiled them with love and attention. Communication was open, consistent, and easy from start to finish. She was also very flexible with scheduling, which I really appreciated. I would not hesitate to leave Lisa and Maggie with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter.”
“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!”
“This is the second time Tripp has stayed at Kelly’s! We are fortunate to know that he is in really good hands. They love on him like their own. It is so nice to know that they can handle it all and we don’t have to worry! He enjoys his time there and we can tell how at home he feels from the photos and videos!”
“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!”
