“Alicia is top-notch! Her communication with me has been regular and perfect. I love the nightly reports and photos. She was flexible with me when my flight was cancelled which threw off our trip for 2 days. I felt 100% secure in leaving my girls and my home in her care. I will be a repeat client. Thank you, Alicia!”
“Max was an amazing pet sitter for my cat Birdie and my hamster Oso. I was worried as this was my first time leaving my cat for this long and she's a rescue and very shy. But, Birdie took to Max very quickly and Max made sure to keep me updated and let me know she was ok. I appreciated how communicative he was with me throughout my time away. Thanks to Max I was able to enjoy my first vacation in over 2 years. I will definitely be reaching out to Max the next time I go on vacation.”
“We were very upfront with Marsha that our rescue dog can be slightly aggressive and does not like strangers—we had almost given up on finding a sitter. Although Marsha never rushed the process, always listened to our concerns, and used techniques that helped our pup build trust slowly. She’s a great communicator with lots of messages, pictures and video. It was so nice to be away and not feel concerned. She’s a great sitter for anxious pups!”
“Tori did a great job. She came by our house prior to her engagement and we went over everything I expected. She was delightful then and paid a lot of attention to my sweet goldendoodle Lucy. During her stay here, she kept me informed as to when she got home and sent me pictures of Lucy looking like she was having a gTori did a great job.

“Jennifer was a fun, attentive, affectionate and responsible caregiver for my 7 month old kitten. She played with her a lot, fed her and cleaned out her litter regularly, and sent me lots of pictures and messages updating me on my kitten’s days. She also went above and beyond on cleaning my house and laundering the linens before I got home. Totally unnecessary, but very much appreciated. I would highly recommend her services.”
About: I love and treat my dogs like family, and will do the same for yours! Growing up, I had experience with all types of dogs in my household! From hyper, playful and energetic, to calm, quiet, and shy, there was no shortage of variety as to the type of dog my family adopted, and was definitely no shortage of unconditional love I gave them! My experience with dog walking and sitting goes back to high school. I was always that family friend you'd call to care for your pets while you were on vacation! Whether it's 1 dog or 3 dogs at a time, no pup is ever left out, and I always balance my attention to each dog and their needs, ensuring their safety and well-being at all times. There is no shortage of love and attention from me when it comes to your dogs! Having 2 large dogs of my own, I understand the need for finding someone you can wholeheartedly trust to care for your fur baby (or babies). I am comfortable around dogs of all shapes and sizes! Both of my dogs have anxious tendencies, and one in particular can be very reactive, nervous, and sometimes aggressive, but through trust, patience, and love, I have been able to develop a loving and nurturing bond with them both, and have no doubt I can do the same with yours! I hope to meet your dog(s) soon! 🫶🏼🐶🐕 I can provide daily care for your dog(s) or cat(s) - whatever their needs may be! My schedule is very flexible and can easily be worked out to whatever your needs may be! I trust and understand the importance of keeping people’s homes their safe spaces for their pet(s)! I will follow any and all guidelines or expectations you have for your home whenever I am there to care for your furry friends! I always treat other’s homes like my own - with love and respect!
“Kat was great! I was in a last minute crunch to find a sitter and she came through eager and experienced! 🙌🏽 The meet and greet went well and she handled my big 97lb baby beautifully. Plenty of updates and the house was clean upon return. Would definitely recommend. Thanks Kat!”
“Haley was absolutely wonderful! She took great care of Enzo, Echo, Max, and Zach while we were away, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She kept us updated, treated our pets like they were her own, and gave us complete peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We came home to happy, well-cared-for pets, and it was obvious they were comfortable with her. Haley is reliable, caring, and professional, and we would not hesitate to book her again. We highly recommend Haley to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter. Thank you for taking such great care of our crew!”
About: I have had pets and taken care of other's pets for most of my life! I absolutely adore animals of all kinds. I used to house/dog sit for a friend all the time but most recently I've been taking care of kitties. I currently work part time and my schedule is pretty flexible. With notice I can make sure I am able to spend plenty of time with your babies! I have done some house sitting before and never had any complaints! I am also very responsive and I will take good care of your pets and your home. No worries!
“Another successful booking with Chloe for our 3 pups! I received daily photos/videos, daily medication was administered, and the pups were in great spirits upon our return. You can tell they were well cared for.”
“I could tell Alex and Cristina played with Sully a lot. I think Sully was tired when I got home! I appreciate the affection they showed Sully while I was there. My house was undisturbed. Thank you so much!”
“Sarah did an amazing job taking care of my dog, Kobe! She was super communicative, sent lots of updates and pictures, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. Kobe looked so happy and well cared for. I would absolutely recommend her and would love to work with her again!”
“Cara was amazing with our 9 year old pitty rescue Sadie and 2 cats! she sent many updates and pictures and followed our instructions for Sadie's walk routine perfectly! Will definitely use her again!”
“Kristen was absolutely amazing with my dog Charlie! She was attentive and communicative. I got regular updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I would highly recommend Kristen to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“Latasha was wonderful! From the beginning she came for a meet and greet and got down on the floor with my Percy! She asked very specific questions about his routine and wanted to ensure he was as comfortable as possible. During her stay she was very interactive with Percy. Took him on outings and walks and made sure he had plenty of play time and attention. On a night of a storm she let Percy sleep in bed with her to help comfort him!! Any concerns she had she messaged me immediately. She was great about sending updates and pictures to make sure I felt he was in good hands which definitely decreased my worries. Latasha treated my home with respect and left my home just as she found it. She even helped me with my newly planted garden to ensure it stayed watered while I was away. I will definitely use Latasha again in the future.”
“Ashley was incredible! We needed help at the last minute as we were heading out of the country and Ashley happily stepped in and treated our pup like a queen.”
“Samantha and Christopher were fantastic! Ned was so happy during their stay and I felt more at ease during our trip knowing he was being taken care of. We received lots of updates and pictures throughout the weekend. Communication was great and our house was just as we left it, if not better! I would definitely recommend and will use again for our future trips!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Webster Groves
Rebecca was absolutely fantastic! This was our first Rover experience and it couldn't have gone better for us. With having 5 dogs and 2 cats boarding is never an option . Rebecca met with us twice beforehand to help make us comfortable and go over all instructions. Such a wonderful person to work with! I cant say enough about how relaxed and confident everything was going to be fine while we were gone. Will absolutely use her again for any and all pet sitting needs.
As a first-time Rover user, I was a little anxious about the prospect of leaving my dog with people I didn’t know very well. Samantha and Christopher did an amazing job putting that anxiety to rest by keeping me in the loop the whole time. They were extremely professional and took some incredible photos of my dog clearly having a blast.
We loved having Alicia care for our pups while we were out of town. She was kind and professional, and took extra care with our pup who was more anxious. She gave great recaps of their day and it really helped to know she was taking such good care of our pups. We will definitely be recommending her to friends if they need a pet sitter.
Brooke has watched our cats and more recently our bearded dragon. She has been amazing with our animals, even getting our senior cat to play with new toys. She is great at communicating updates and was even able to accommodate a last minute schedule change for our last booking.
Maya was amazing! She checked in on Joey multiple times throughout the day and was great at updating me with pictures of them playing, going on walks, or just hanging out at the house. She was very trustworthy and did a great job communicating. Joey loved her and was in great spirits when I got home from my trip. I will definitely be rebooking Maya for future pet care.
Clarisa took great care of my 2 senior dogs and one senior cat for a week while I was away for 5 days. She was very sweet my pets, and they were happy and content when I got home as if I had never been gone. Exactly what you hope for! Clarisa was very communicative with me during the trip and sent daily photos of them which is always comforting. I highly recommend her services for your pets!
Jenni was an excellent dog sitter for our 2 dogs. She is friendly and very communicative. We received regular updates with pictures on walks and questions when necessary. Our dogs were happy when we got home and clearly well cared for. I would rebook Jenni again!
Natalee was awesome. She was detail oriented and clearly loves dogs a lot. She was very intentional about the way she met and interacted with our dog, and followed our requests perfectly. Our dog took to her very quickly and seemed to have a great time with her.

FAQs for House Sitting - Webster Groves
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Webster Groves on Rover is $73.26 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 1,712 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Webster Groves. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Webster Groves walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Webster Groves maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Webster Groves choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Webster Groves. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
