“Outlaw and Lola were well taken care of and had a great staycation. They made me feel at ease and treated the pups like family. Thanks for that. It’s important to me and the only way I can enjoy my time off. We will be back.”
“Sharon and her husband and granddaughter were great with our senior rat terrier. He takes meds and they had no problems giving them to him. They gave him lots of love and snuggles! I would highly recommend them and will definitely use them again in the future!”
“Stevie was EXCELLENT & we're excited about using her again. We came home from our overnight vacation feeling relaxed & inspired and our little dog Baby did too. After spending time with Stevie she was so chill, none of her usual anxiety & the socialization with other people & dogs was a real plus for our Baby. Much appreciate the info & tips Stevie shared to help improve Babys well being & health.”
“Bridget was amazing! She was very nice and her house was very clean. She sent me pictures while I was away and provided updates on how Mabel was doing. I will definitely be using her again for future vacations.”
“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. 😇🙏❤️”
“Naji is an amazing pet sitter. She has cared for my Rusty several times before. She goes out of her way to take care of him so well. He has so much fun at her house that he doesn't even miss me! You can tell she really loves the pets she cares for.”
“Thank you for taking great care of our dogs! Kathleen is organized and is very responsive to messages. She is conscientious and sends updates daily with pictures. She takes a genuine interest in caring for dogs and ensuring they are comfortable. Would recommend highly.”
“Catherine was just awesome. We have a 10 lb jack Russell mix, Sammy, who is a very nervous, anxious little guy. When we went for our meet and greet, he just ran around and made himself at home. We have never left him with anyone other than family but I just felt extremely comfortable with Cathy and knew he would be good with her. She sent me some pics of him and kept me updated during his stay of 6 days. She keeps the large dogs separate from the smaller ones which was good for Sammy as he has not really been around other dogs much. She will definitely be my go to sitter from now on. If you choose to leave your pet with Cathy, you can relax and enjoy your trip because she will give him care, attention and all the love they need.”
“I cannot say enough good things about Jaqueline! From the start she gave me total peace of mind with her constant updates, pictures, and the sweetest little texts about my boys. She truly took the time to understand their personalities. They weren’t just watched, they were treated like the short kings they are and welcomed into her home like family. I could see how much love and attention they all gave them, and it was clear they felt comfortable and happy every step of the way. I am beyond grateful we found her. She gave them VIP treatment, definitely booking again, we got really lucky finding her! ❤️”
“Had troubles with travels, dogs going into heat, and anything else that could of happened. MacKenzie always spoils my pops and take away all my stress 💛”
“Every pet lover and owner knows how hard it can be to have someone new take care of your pet family. Odin & Finn were immediately welcomed and treated like family. Chloe sent photos and messages with updates. We definitely recommend Chloe & Collin to take great care of your pets. They are our new go to home when we are are away from home. Big thanks!! 5 STARS!!”
“Toby has anxiety and I was concerned about leaving him somewhere new. Meilan and her family were great! I really appreciated their honesty on the first day, telling me he was anxious, and follow ups letting me know he was doing better as the week progressed. We’ll be back!”
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).
“Dewayne was amazing. I had a last minute booking and he made it super easy. Sent pictures and updates, and Benny was very clearly happy. It was great to have my mind at ease while 3 hours away. I will 100% be booking again.”
“Gail is THE BEST!! You can tell she really loves animals, especially the dogs. She made my Fredo feel very relaxed and at home under her care. She has a lovely home and makes all of the dogs she cares for very comfortable. I would use her again to watch Fredo. Fredo can't wait to go back to play with Sky! Thanks Gail.”
“Amanda provided such a wonderful home away from home for our dog, Libby, that we were almost nervous she wouldn't want to come home! She was beyond amazing, both in taking care of the dog and us as we fretted over leaving Libby for such a long time. Amanda provided several updates a day along with pictures. We could not be happier with how she took care of our dog and will never look anywhere else for help. Libby made strong bonds that I'm certain are reciprocated so I know she'll be happy to go back when we need a dog sitter in the future. Amanda deserves 10 stars!!!! 🤩”
“Olga was so great watching Zain! She was able to accommodate a last minute booking and was amazing to communicate with. She sent daily updates and I had a very happy pup waiting when I got back. He had lots of fun playing with Elsa in their spacious backyard and came home with a good report card! We will definitely look to use Olga again in the future if she’s available!”

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.
