“This was our first time ever using Rover. I’m quite pleased with it and for sure will use this service again! Laronna was so pleasant and awesome. We did a meet and greet a few days before the reservations. I was very comfortable with her right after. She gave me updates and pics daily which was so sweet. I will book again with her in the future. If you’re hesitant like I was in the beginning, she definitely changed that quickly.”
“Katie was absolutely wonderful and cared for our dogs like her own. She sent us photos of them playing well with her sweet dogs and family. Gave us such peace of mind when we were out of town, would 100% book again”
About: Hi! I’m Alizée, a stay-at-home mom in St. Peters offering loving, personalized in-home dog care in a calm and safe family setting. As a stay-at-home mom, I’m home most of the day, which means your dog will receive plenty of attention, companionship, supervised playtime, and regular potty breaks—no long hours alone. At the very maximum and on special occasions, I may be gone a maximum of 2h a day. I share my home with two sweet senior female Chihuahuas, so caring for dogs is already part of my daily life. Their gentle presence helps create a calm, dog-friendly environment, and I’m very attentive to comfort, routines, and each dog’s individual needs. I also bring a healthcare background to my pet care: I worked for 6 years as a nursing assistant and phlebotomist, which means I’m comfortable and experienced with special care needs, including oral medications, injections/shots, and close monitoring for senior or medically sensitive pets. What your dog will enjoy here: 🐾 A safe fenced yard for outdoor play and potty breaks - no chemicals are used in our yard and we remove dog's waste every other day. 🌳 Daily walks and outings near our local park 🏡 A cozy home environment—never a kennel 📸 Daily photo and video updates ❤️ Plenty of affection, supervision, and personalized care I intentionally keep the number of dogs I host to one at the time (or multiple from the same family) so every guest gets the attention they deserve and feels safe and comfortable. I’m happy to care for small to medium dogs, including puppies who aren't fully potty trained yet, adults, and seniors, and I always recommend a meet-and-greet before the first stay to make sure it’s the right fit for everyone. Make sure your puppy is comfortable with other small dogs, and children. I’d love to welcome your pup into our home! Feel free to ask me any questions, I love what I do and I want my clients to know their puppy will be safe and properly cared for at my house. I am a stay at home mom, so I am available all day to care for your fur baby. Rarely away more than 2h at the time, your pup will have all the attention and playtime he needs. Our family wakes up early the morning, before 6.30am so if your puppy sleeps in a kennel, he will be out of it at sunrise. If the weather permits, we go for daily walks at the park and/or in the neighborhood. I adapt my days to your animal. So if your puppy needs more or less walk, more or less yard play, or any specific care, this is not a problem. My clients usually come with their feeding instructions and a feeding schedule for their puppy, and I will be applying all the rules they see fit for their animal. I like to keep your animal on the same routine as at your house to allow less stress on them. I have a fenced yard, two elderly female chihuahuas and a child at home. Dogs are never left unattended in the yard, I am always with them. I can easily crate your puppy if needed and I am familiar with the app FI that some of my clients already use. As a healthcare professional for several years, I am comfortable caring for older or sick animals. I provide daily pictures and videos to ease your stress while you are away. We do not use any chemicals in our yard and a very limited amount inside the house. Most of our space is cleaned using steam water. We also allow our own pets on the furnitures and your pup will receive the same privilege if this is in accordance with your own rules. We practice separate feeding time/station and separate sleeping area from our own dogs. Our house is equipped with cameras, inside and outside, allowing me to always have an eye on our animal if needed. During walks I do not allow contact with other dogs, and we stay on paved trails (no wooden areas or swamps) or neighborhood sidewalks. Unless it is an emergency, I do not take the liberty to transport my client's dog in the car. *exception will be made if you ask me to do so*
“Nicole was an excellent sitter for Molly! She treated her as if she were her own dog. Molly’s tail was always up in the pictures she sent and that means she was a happy dog!”
About: I have dogs of my own & have taken care of our family dogs while their parents are away as well. We can do any medications if needed. They will have a fun, relaxing time while you’re away! We are home all day and have access to a doggy door/fenced yard to run/potty as well. We have experience with sick, old, puppies, & anyone needing that extra love & attention. We are home full time and have access to play/ take walks during morning/afternoon/evening if you’d like. We have 3 smaller dogs ( 2 French bulldogs/1 miniature pinscher) who are always welcome to new friends to play with. We have a doggy door that exits out to our fenced in yard. We are home all day. Dogs are welcome to hang on our couch or any blanket/doggy bed that they’d choose. We have our own 3 smaller dogs to play with as well (2 french bull dogs/ 1 miniature pincher). We’d feed dogs according to their schedule.

Jing has a tidy and calm home, which was great for our dogs, and a playful dog of her own that was a great playmate for ours. We definitely recommend Jing!”
“Elisa was an amazing dog sitter for Coco! From the start, she was friendly, communicative, and clearly experienced with dogs. Coco can sometimes be a little shy at first, but Elisa was patient and quickly made her feel comfortable and cared for. Throughout the stay, Elisa kept me updated with messages and photos, which really gave me peace of mind. It was clear Coco was happy, well-exercised, and getting lots of attention. When I picked her up, she was relaxed and in great spirits. I’m so grateful for the care Elisa gave Coco and would absolutely trust her again in the future. Highly recommend Elisa to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and attentive dog sitter!”
“Samantha does such an amazing job! She sent pictures daily and even helped get her to eat when she was feeling homesick! Pepper seemed very happy to get to spend the weekend with her and Kane!”

About: I have plenty of experience taking care of dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, and fish. I have experience with younger and older animals. As well as back at home I have geriatric dog care experience taking care of my own dog Tripp. I am currently looking for a part-time job right now, so my schedule is very flexible at the moment. In the future that might change a little, but I plan to be free on weekends and some days throughout the week. At home, we have a fenced-in yard, and we like to let him out a lot in addition to a nightly walk. I can accommodate any needs that your pet may have, whether they need to be more or less active.
“5 Stars!!! I just wanted to say thank you! We came home to find a happy and healthy kitty! Cheryl made our trip stress free with daily check ins and pictures updates! Loved the whole experience! We will use Cheryl again next time we travel!”
“Taro was amazing! This was the first time I’ve left my cat at an overnight pet sitter, and I was so nervous. However, within the first hour of dropping her off, I got an update that she started to explore a little more. Now, my cat tends to be nicer towards women since that’s who she’s used to be around, but she really liked testing the waters with Taro! I had updates about how she would rub against him and play with him! He also provided amazing updates every other day with some pictures as well! I really recommend him, especially if this is your first time booking an over night pet sitter!”
About: My love for pets is what sparked me to enter the wonderful world of pet sitting. I have been a dog walker/dog sitter and have been boarding dogs for 6+ years. I understand the importance of trusting someone to care for your "kids". I grew up with a household of furry friends! I am currently stay home mom and I have plenty of time taking care of the pups. I'm available for boarding on weekdays and weekends, I love dogs and have two dogs of my own - toy poodle and golden doodle and have large fenced yard with pet friendly neighborhood. Pups safety is my priority.

“I cannot recommend Melanie enough as a dog sitter! She took such wonderful care of my shy little Daisy, and I could tell right away that my pup fit in and felt safe in her care. Melanie’s pack of mini Aussies were perfect companions, and my dog absolutely adored playing with them. It was heartwarming to see her come out of her shell, and I’m sure it’s because she got so much attention, exercise, and socialization with Melanie and her furry friends. She even discovered a few new toys to fall in love with! I couldn’t be happier with the experience and would trust Melanie with my dog again in a heartbeat. Thank you so much for treating her like one of your own!”
“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.”
About: My dogs are like my children, and I treat other peoples' dogs the same way. I have had dogs growing up and currently have two. Two of our seniors have recently crossed over the rainbow bridge and we miss them dearly. In addition to clients through Rover, I have done dog-sitting for friends and neighbors with great success. I make sure dogs in my care have plenty of companionship and exercise. I believe in rewarding dogs for good behavior rather than punishing them for doing something wrong. I do work full time as a teacher but can am home in summers, and my husband works from home most days. For boarding, we have a dog door and a fenced in yard, so your pet can roam freely if you choose. We would just need to make sure our dogs all get along! I adore dogs and will shower yours with attention. Dogs in my care get very spoiled with lots of love! I’m a teacher, so I have more time in the summer but do have evening and weekend availability during the school year. If you choose to board, your pet will have 24/7 access to the yard through our dog door! My husband works from home most days with the exception of Wednesdays, so there is almost always someone home with your pet unless we are gone for activities with our kids. I have a fenced in yard, a dog door, and a friendly dog. If your dog is used to having free reign of the house when you’re gone, that will be the case at our house as well, and they will have access to the yard through the dog door. The door does have the ability to lock if escaping the yard is a concern. If your dog doesn’t learn the dog door, we will ensure they are able to get outside plenty. We will also respect any requests to crate during the day or at night.
“Nuriya family and home were very nice. Their home is smaller than my dog is used to so he got a little anxious. They took great care of my dog even through the tornado warnings.”
“Stephanie was great! She took great care of Sadie for the two days she stayed at her house. She has a nice large and fenced in yard where Sadie could run and play with her dog. She took her on walks and sent me pictures and videos of Sadie’s stay. I plan on going back to her again.”
About: I have taken care of dogs of my own for 15 years and enjoy having other pets around to play with. Speaking from experience it’s nice to have someone you can trust to take care of your pets when you have other responsibilities. I currently work from home several days a week so am available most days. My dogs typically are in and out as much as they want. I have a fenced yard that’s larger so there is plenty of room for outside play time. I’m also available to come to your house to spend time with your pets.
“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!”
“Absolutely wonderful experience! We are visiting relatives in st Charles and needed a pet sitter for a couple of days for our dog. Benjamin had as great time with Desiree, and had fun being part of her family vehicle we were attending non pet friendly events. Wonderful, caring experience for both us and our four footed child”
“Kristin is THE best dog sitter we have ever met. My dogs start whining when we get on her street and as soon as we pull up to her house they bolt from the car straight to her door. When she has watched them overnight we get frequent pics and updates. We know they are always in great hands. She is the only dog sitter we recommended.”
About: I've lived with dogs my whole life and provided dogsitting services for over 5 years! Have 1 friendly dog of my own, and work from home full-time with a nice fenced yard. Lots of availability! I work from home full-time and don't travel often, so I'm usually available any days. Available around the holidays as well, so happy to watch your pets while you travel. I have a fenced back yard and 1 friendly dog of my own to keep yours company. Comfortable environment here and I'm usually home all day.
“Kasey has taken such wonderful care of Xena. She even provides pictures and updates throughout the day, which is so helpful for keeping tabs on how my senior girl is doing and eating. Xena loves playing with Jolene and hanging out in the backyard, and gets to come home stress-free and tired from a good day of lower energy and much safer fun than a big daycare. Thank you, Kasey!”
About: I had a dog growing up (Hershey) and helped take care of him. And I have always enjoyed playing with friends' and family's dogs. I absolutely love walking and being outside and would love canine companions to encourage me to do it more! I've hosted one friend's dog at my place already (see pics; that's Georgia sleeping on her little doggy mat in my living room). Overall, lifelong love of dogs + good head on my shoulders = strong instinct for what they need and when. I work from home, and other than a few set calls, I set my own schedule. And I work from a treadmill desk — so when I say I love walking, I mean it! I take frequent breaks to get sunshine and exercise outdoors, so you can expect your dog to get the same! I can keep an eye on your dogs the entire time I have them! I have a fenced-in, upstairs deck (with a staircase that can be easily blocked). And a backyard that is NOT fenced, but where I could tie a leash around one of the deck supports, so your dog can be outdoors as much as they want! Inside, I have a fully hard, vinyl floor upstairs and a carpeted area downstairs, with vinyl flooring in the downstairs kitchen as well. So whichever surface your dog likes to sit on, I can accommodate!
“Was nervous cause of my first time using the app but she sent videos and pictures throughout the day giving updates what they’re doing without asking. Overall a great experience and would highly recommend.”
About: I have had dogs in my life since I was 3 years old. I have been taking care of my pets since then. I have house sat for family members. I have taken care of puppies and senior dogs before. I currently work full time from home so I am home daily. I am able to let the dogs out and give them attention all day long. I have a fenced in yard that our dog roams and sits outside often. I give our dog multiple bathroom breaks, play with her and give her lots of love during the day.
“Our first time using Rover. Meet and greet was very nice and felt like we just made some new friends. I think Charlie was treated like a king. Will definitely be our go to when we need a sitter. 🙂”

“Kayla took Luna on a lovely walk while I was gone for the day! Luna loved her walk and was definitely tired for the rest of the day. Kayla was very communicative and even arrived early after checking it was okay to do so!”
“Bridget M. spent four one-hour visits with Ginger providing love and walks. I appreciated her detailed descriptions of each visit, and the many photos she provided. I highly recommend Bridget to anyone who has a pet that needs love, patience and exercise.”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my genuine love, care, and patience with every dog I look after. I focus on building trust with each pup, ensuring they feel comfortable and relaxed in a familiar routine. Whether it’s providing extra attention to senior dogs or simply offering a calm and nurturing presence, I take the time to cater to each dog’s individual personality and needs. Your dog will feel like they’re in the best hands, with plenty of love and patience every step of the way! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I prioritize flexibility and planning. With a short 10-minute commute and my work hours from 8 AM to 4:30 PM, I’m able to offer midday walks, quick play sessions, and personal check-ins during lunch breaks or right after work. I make sure to adjust my schedule to ensure your pet gets plenty of attention, whether it’s in the mornings, evenings, or weekends. My routine allows me to stay consistent with care, while giving your pet the love, attention, and exercise they need every day! In my home, pets enjoy a safe, comfortable space with plenty of playtime, cuddles, and a consistent routine. I provide individual attention to each pet, ensuring they feel relaxed and cared for. In your home, I maintain your pet’s regular schedule, offer companionship, and provide daily updates. Whether at my place or yours, I prioritize your pet’s comfort, security, and happiness, treating them like family.
About: Hi my name is Corin a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet caregiver! Ive been around pets my whole life but at age seven I did 4-H (raising goats and pigs) and has grown to include years of experience with everything from dogs and cats to chickens, ducks, and turtles.

“My dog instantly loved Kaylee! She never lets anyone pet her the first time. Lucy let Kaylee pet her and tonight she even gave her kisses! I feel so much better knowing Kaylee is going to be walking Lucy every weekend over the next few months!”
About: I have grown up around dogs my entire life and truly love dogs of all shapes and sizes! Because my current apartment doesn't allow dogs, I have plenty of love to give and would treat your fur baby as my very own.While I adore every dog I meet, I have a massive soft spot for extra-large breeds. My mom has an 11-year-old Black Lab/Mastiff mix named Zoey. I have watched her grow from a puppy to a big, loveable teddy bear. Since I cannot host pets in my own home, I specialize in coming to you.

I am available for morning, noon, and early evening drop-ins or walks. Your pet's safety, comfort, and security are my top priorities. Here is how I ensure a safe and trustworthy experience for you and your pup:In Your Home: I treat your home with the utmost respect, keeping it secure, locked, and exactly as you left it. I strictly adhere to your home’s boundaries, ensuring gates are closed, doors are latched, and any hazards (like counter food or trash cans) are kept entirely out of reach.On Walks: I always use a secure collar and leash and maintain total awareness of our surroundings. I never let dogs off-leash in public. Routine & Health Monitoring: I am a rule-follower when it comes to your pet's schedule. I track feeding amounts, medication timings, and bathroom breaks. I am fully prepared to follow emergency protocols and will have your vet's contact information readily on hand. You can count on transparent, daily communication and plenty of photo updates so you can enjoy total peace of mind while you are away!

I believe in earning your pet’s trust through patience and consistency, and I always treat them like part of the family.

At the very maximum and on special occasions, I may be gone a maximum of 2h a day. I share my home with two sweet senior female Chihuahuas, so caring for dogs is already part of my daily life. Their gentle presence helps create a calm, dog-friendly environment, and I’m very attentive to comfort, routines, and each dog’s individual needs. I also bring a healthcare background to my pet care: I worked for 6 years as a nursing assistant and phlebotomist, which means I’m comfortable and experienced with special care needs, including oral medications, injections/shots, and close monitoring for senior or medically sensitive pets. What your dog will enjoy here: 🐾 A safe fenced yard for outdoor play and potty breaks - no chemicals are used in our yard and we remove dog's waste every other day. 🌳 Daily walks and outings near our local park 🏡 A cozy home environment—never a kennel 📸 Daily photo and video updates ❤️ Plenty of affection, supervision, and personalized care I intentionally keep the number of dogs I host to one at the time (or multiple from the same family) so every guest gets the attention they deserve and feels safe and comfortable. I’m happy to care for small to medium dogs, including puppies who aren't fully potty trained yet, adults, and seniors, and I always recommend a meet-and-greet before the first stay to make sure it’s the right fit for everyone. Make sure your puppy is comfortable with other small dogs, and children. I’d love to welcome your pup into our home! Feel free to ask me any questions, I love what I do and I want my clients to know their puppy will be safe and properly cared for at my house. I am a stay at home mom, so I am available all day to care for your fur baby. Rarely away more than 2h at the time, your pup will have all the attention and playtime he needs. Our family wakes up early the morning, before 6.30am so if your puppy sleeps in a kennel, he will be out of it at sunrise. If the weather permits, we go for daily walks at the park and/or in the neighborhood. I adapt my days to your animal. So if your puppy needs more or less walk, more or less yard play, or any specific care, this is not a problem. My clients usually come with their feeding instructions and a feeding schedule for their puppy, and I will be applying all the rules they see fit for their animal. I like to keep your animal on the same routine as at your house to allow less stress on them. I have a fenced yard, two elderly female chihuahuas and a child at home. Dogs are never left unattended in the yard, I am always with them. I can easily crate your puppy if needed and I am familiar with the app FI that some of my clients already use. As a healthcare professional for several years, I am comfortable caring for older or sick animals. I provide daily pictures and videos to ease your stress while you are away. We do not use any chemicals in our yard and a very limited amount inside the house. Most of our space is cleaned using steam water. We also allow our own pets on the furnitures and your pup will receive the same privilege if this is in accordance with your own rules. We practice separate feeding time/station and separate sleeping area from our own dogs. Our house is equipped with cameras, inside and outside, allowing me to always have an eye on our animal if needed. During walks I do not allow contact with other dogs, and we stay on paved trails (no wooden areas or swamps) or neighborhood sidewalks. Unless it is an emergency, I do not take the liberty to transport my client's dog in the car. *exception will be made if you ask me to do so*
“Thanks Melissa for taking care of my pets Darla and Hannah. I loved her approach towards my pets she and her family really took great care ,giving feedback on pets they really felt like home.Grateful for your services. She s very polite and kind.”
“I highly recommend Sonya and her family for pet sitting! I recently left my dog, Macario, with them while I was away camping for several days, and they took excellent care of him. It was clear from the updates and photos that he was comfortable, well-loved, and treated like part of the family. When I picked him up, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly had a great stay. They were easy to communicate with, responsive, and genuinely cared about making sure both Macario and I felt comfortable throughout the experience. As a dog mom, having peace of mind while you're away is priceless, and that's exactly what they provided. I'll definitely be using them again in the future. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of Macario!”
“Leah was great! She took my dog in last minute and took amazing care of him! She made sure she knew exactly how to care for him and was very accommodating on caring for him a little longer than anticipated due to my traveling delays!”
“Brandon did great with Bailey! I could tell she really had fun. Met her bestyyy ZZ and was pretty bummed about going home as soon as we put her in the car😆 won’t stop whining as soon as we got home. Will definitely book brandon again! Real soon.”
“Bennett had a great time and was taken care of wonderfully! So happy to have found a great spot for him to stay when we are out of town! Thank you for loving on our boy!”
“Tim and his wife are the best! I don’t trust just anyone with my pup, but when Chester stays with Tim, I don’t have a single worry! I have used Tim time and time again and couldn’t recommend him enough.”
“Thanks again for having Bruce stay over for a short stay. He was definitely worn out when I picked him up! He loves getting in his exercise playing with the kids in the fenced in backyard!”
“Rachel, Katee and their family were so welcoming to our sweet Kiya! This was the longest trip we’ve been on without her and I felt so much ease knowing they were taking care and loving on her like she was their own. They sent updates everyday and lots of pictures! She loved getting to play with their dog, Rudy and their daughter. We would definitely book with them again!”
“Katie saved me with a last minute request and took amazing care of our 1yr old boxer. She sent photos throughout and when we picked her up I could tell she was at ease from her stay. She took her on walks, played and cuddled, and will definitely rebook with her.”
About: My love for pets is what sparked me to enter the wonderful world of pet sitting. I have been a dog walker/dog sitter and have been boarding dogs for 6+ years. I understand the importance of trusting someone to care for your "kids". I grew up with a household of furry friends! I am currently stay home mom and I have plenty of time taking care of the pups. I'm available for boarding on weekdays and weekends, I love dogs and have two dogs of my own - toy poodle and golden doodle and have large fenced yard with pet friendly neighborhood. Pups safety is my priority.
“Uno was in great hands! All the updates with pictures and videos were comforting to know he was okay while we were out of town. No issues and he even met a new friend :) Thanks again!”
“Samantha does such an amazing job! She sent pictures daily and even helped get her to eat when she was feeling homesick! Pepper seemed very happy to get to spend the weekend with her and Kane!”
