“Many thanks to John, Rachel and their sweet family! Millie had the absolute best time and they treated her like one of their own. Their fenced in backyard and dog Hunter made for plenty of playtime and she received lots of love!”
“Sharon and Mike loved my babies like they were their very own!! They sent pictures and updates daily, which made me feel so much better about leaving them for our trip. One of our puppies is very anxious and she instantly bonded with Mike (and even snuggled him every night!!). We will definitely use them for our future boarding needs. Cannot recommend them enough!”
“Bacon loved being with Catherine and his mom and dad felt very comfortable leaving Bacon in her care. She sent pictures, let him sleep in her bed at night and even hang out with her daycare kiddos. So grateful and relieved the stay went well and would differently use her skills again.”
“Stevie was great! She worked with our schedule for dropping off and picking up. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing our furry family member was in good hands.”
“Daine and Ashley are a blessing for me and my dog beauty, I can never say enough about how grateful I am to have found them…Anyone looking for an Awesome family oriented dog loving home, this is definitely the place. 😇🙏❤️”
“Kathleen made an instant connection with our 13 year old diabetic and nearly completely blind Brittney Spaniel. This was our first time leaving her with anyone outside of family and it was obvious from the photos that she was immediately comfortable and happy at Kathleen’s home. Would definitely use her again a d recommend her to anyone who is in need of boarding and may be a little hesitant. She has a very gentle soul that dogs resinate with.”
“Hands down the best cat sitter I’ve ever used, five stars, ten out of ten. She kept my little baby happy and spoiled while I was gone, sent adorable photo updates every single day without me even asking, and everything felt so easy and stress-free. Seriously, if you’re looking for someone who actually cares about your cat like it’s her own, she’s the one. Book her now, you won’t regret it!!!”
“Bridget was amazing with our dog, Ethel! She took great care of her and kept us updated with pictures and messages, which we loved. We’ll definitely book with her again!”
“MacKenzie was great! Can’t wait to take Bella there again! We had our girl boarded because she has extra needs being older. She needed insulin, supplements, special food, etc. we got daily updates, photos, and she even clipped her nails and gave her a bath. Wish I could give her more stars! Thanks Mackenzie!”
“Mei was so sweet and her family was great with our little man. We were traveling through and asked about sitting at the last minute. She was responsive, polite, and even sent pictures that night. Next time I’m in town I I will absolutely ask her to watch Comet again. Five star service all the way!!”
About: I have loved dogs since I was a child. As a pre-teen, I used to go to my neighbors' homes to take their dogs for walks. Then, in 1993, my parents finally gave me my first dog—a black English Cocker Spaniel. I haven't been without dogs since. The first one was stolen when he was a year old. The second, another black Cocker, lived for 14 years. During that time, I also had a Yorkshire Terrier who lived to be 17. Currently, I have a 12-year-old female Papillon who came with me from Brazil a little over two years ago. I am Brazilian and qualified as a veterinarian in 2003. I spent six years working in a clinic treating dogs before switching to a different area of veterinary practice for personal reasons. Since moving to the US, I have been a full-time mom, as my youngest daughter is not yet school-age. I believe a meet-and-greet is beneficial for both parties; it’s a time for pets and their owners to get to know me better, and for me to get to know the pet (I like to fill out a form during this time to record details about them). I understand that just like us, dogs need regular walks to stay happy, healthy and mentally stimulated. If life gets busy and you're unable to take your pup out as often as you'd like, I'd be happy to help. I also offer loving in-home care for pets who prefer to stay cozy and comfortable in their own home while you're away. Services offered: dog walker, boarding, drop-in visits and doggy day care. I offer other pet services upon request. I am currently a full-time mother and homemaker, so I do not have a job that keeps me away from home for long stretches at a time. I have a friendly 12-year-old female dog, but she doesn't know how to play with other dogs; she’s a companion for quiet moments rather than playtime. I have three children—aged 4, 6, and 9—who adore dogs and love playing with them. I live in a house without a fenced yard. The raised deck has a gate and is a spot where my dog likes to hang out and watch the activity. I’ve installed a 34-inch removable fence in a small area where a dog can be left without constant supervision (provided they aren't a climber or a jumper).
“I highly recommend Jacqueline for any of your pet care needs. She welcomes our boy like he’s part of the family, and always sends us updates of how he’s doing. We are always confident he’s in the best hands when we are out of town.”
“Aspen came home a happy and tired girl, sign of a great overnight! Chloe was great to communicate with and sent photos of my girl. Looking forward to her next stay!”
“Brittney and Max were wonderful with our puppy! They took such great care of him and sent us lots of pictures. He always seemed so happy! This was our first time using Rover, so we were a little unsure about it. It was a great experience!”
“This was our third time leaving our dog with Lona and Alan. She's now spent nearly 20 days in their care over the course of the three trips and I know each day she was taken care of wonderfully. I Would recommend them in a heartbeat!”
“I can't thank Gail and Dog Vacay enough!! Right from the meet and greet I knew I had picked the best. Our 12 year old Aussie/Collie mix Sydney felt so at home immediately. Gail's comfortable home let Sydney keep up with her daily pastimes: sleeping on the sofa and looking out the window! :) Sydney takes daily meds which were administered with no problem. Gail sent updates and even pictures to us that made my vacation more relaxed too. Gail's other little border gave Sydney a fun friend. I'm not sure Sydney wanted us to come home! Gail is a teriffic lady and was a great surrogate mom for Sydney. Thanks again- Christine B.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Wellington home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Wellington.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Wellington sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in MO ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
