“Kacy P. was an amazing sitter for our three fur babies (two cats and a dog)! We recently took a ten-day vacation and needed someone who would love our pets as much as we do, and Kacy was the perfect match. I was extremely hesitant at first because I am so attached to our dog, Ripley—and both of us suffer from a bit of separation anxiety! But Kacy was wonderful, sending consistent updates and videos. Even my family members on vacation with me kept asking every day, 'Can we see today's video of Ripley?' Kacy gave loads of attention to Ripley, Happy, and Delilah, taking fantastic care of both our pets and our home. They couldn't have been in better hands! I highly recommend Kacy to anyone looking for a sitter who will do far more than just check in, but will truly shower your animals with love.”
“First time Rover user & I found the perfect person for my dogs. Marissa is so sweet and did a fantastic job taking care of my 10 year old boy, and my very scheduled 13 year old diabetic girl. Marissa sent me pictures at 6am and 6pm on the dot showing me that she gave my Mia girl her insulin right on schedule. Traveling with diabetic dog at home is hard, and she was able to put me at ease. I will continue to use her for any and all future trips that allow!”
“Donovan was amazing. He really cared about our furry friends as his own. He spent a lot of time with them in our home, and they were the focus of his attention, which set our minds at ease. He sent us lots of photos and updates, and he also took care of our home as if it were his own. I would be happy to work with Donovan again, and I know that he will take great care of Ringo and Ginger anytime that we are away!”
“Kathryn did a fantastic job watching our boys! She and Marlee took great care of them. She was super accommodating with our schedule and was very easy to work with! Will definitely book again”
“Kyle is very comfortable and confident around dogs, which Gus could pick up on. Gus took to him immediately. He has that easy going approach of someone who has been around dogs most of his life. We will book Kyle again and I would recommend him to others.”
“Maria did a great job taking care of Charlie. She also made sure the house was exactly like we left it. The only glitch was a problem with her schedule that delayed her initial arrival. I would definitely use Maria again.”
“Look no further if you’re looking for someone to love your fur baby! Melissa did an amazing job taking care of our Bailey! She even went as far as to send us nightly text and pictures! I will definitely be booking her again as Bailey has a new friend!”
“Charae was fantastic! She gave lots of updates and pics of our two dogs while we were away and was very responsive anytime we reached out. We would certainly use Charae again and highly recommend her!”
About: I grew up in a house full of animals, so loving and caring for pets is second nature to me! Our household currently includes two cats (Walter and Wanda). When your pet stays with us, they become part of the family—expect plenty of belly rubs, playtime, and pampered care! Being a Stay at home mom, I have flexibility that allows me to do things like hiking trails, running at the lake, and house/pet sit for my friends and family. Growing up with both indoor and outdoor animals has helped me adapt to different pets behaviors and still create a trusting environment so they feel safe.
About: I'm experienced in what to do in medical emergencies I have had that happen once I am a huge pet lover and I am friends with a veterinarian. Currently I only try to watch on my days off if somebody needs a sitter for longer however we could work something out I'm a huge pet lover and I live on three acres. This will depend on client some clients are okay with pets paying left out at night some clients prefer their pets be put in crate at night I will honor the rules of the client.
“First time Rover user and was quite worried about a stranger watching our house and dogs. Let me just say Jennifer was great and withouta doubt will be my future sitter. The dogs were well cared for, and perhaps i am insane but i swear my house was cleaner than i left it when i came home. I got daily pictures during my trip assuring me of my dogs well being. Thanks Jennifer!”
About: I've taken care of a multitude of different dogs since I was 13-14. Neighbors, friends, family have relied on me to take care of their fur babies. I feed, walk, bathe, and nourish their pets as if they were my own. I'm currently in school still right now but I have plenty of time on the weekends and after 3pm during the week. Once the summer picks up I will be more available I come with a positive attitude ready to take care of your pets as if they were mine. I find joy in the outdoors so taking your animals out to get some fresh air is no problem.
“Makayla did an amazing job staying with both of our dogs. Our dogs unfortunately were sick when we left and she was extremely accommodating on ensuring our dogs took their medication. While also communicating how they were doing while we were gone. Would highly recommend her and plan on using Makayla again.”
“This was my first time using the service. I was a bit nervous. But Kim was awesome and sent me so many pics. She was great about updates and took great care of Snickers! I highly recommend her and will be utilizing her in the future!”
“Mara did a fantastic job with all our animals while we were away in our 6 day vacation! She house sat with them for the full time and kept them from being lonely and sad. Everyone was well taking care of and the house looked as good if not better than it did when we left. We got daily pictures of everyone and many updates throughout the day. We will definitely use Mara again in the future!”
About: I combine reliable, structured care with transparent communication. You will never have to wonder how your best friend is doing—I send frequent photo and video updates throughout the day. Whether your dog needs energetic, long walks to burn off steam or extra patience and gentle companionship, I tailor my energy to match theirs. Pet care seamlessly blends into my active, flexible lifestyle. I am an avid walker and outdoor enthusiast, so my daily routine naturally includes multiple outdoor excursions. I plan my day around consistent feeding times, routine backyard play, and long, structured neighborhood walks to keep your pet happy and relaxed. I treat your home with the utmost respect while keeping your pet’s daily routine completely unchanged. By staying overnight, I ensure your pet enjoys the comfort of their familiar environment, preventing any separation anxiety and leaving your space as clean as I found it.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Wentzville
I can't say enough good things about Kathryn! This was my first time using Rover and I was nervous about leaving our Golden Retriever Molly. Kathryn set my mind at ease from the very first messages we exchanged. Her communication skills are excellent. Whenever I messaged her, she responded within a few minutes with a clear detailed response. At the meet and greet, she was great with Molly and listened closely to care instructions. On the day that we left for our vacation, Kathryn arrived at the agreed upon time. She sent a message and photos of Molly already snuggling with her on the couch. During our vacation she sent a message once every day with information about how Molly was doing and that she was eating well. With every message she also sent pictures. I don't know how, but my dog seemed to always be smiling and living her best life in the photos! Kathryn also took great care of our house while we were gone. She watered our plants and left our house clean. I would 100% use Kathryn as a sitter again!!!!
Kyra did a great job looking after our pup! She was flexible with times making sure that our dog got his medicine and the care he needed! Most importantly she made sure she took care of our pup as if we were there with him and that was the biggest relief off our shoulders being away from him. We will continue to book with her!!

FAQs for House Sitting - Wentzville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Wentzville on Rover is $33.3 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 880 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Wentzville. 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 Wentzville 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 Wentzville 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 Wentzville 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 Wentzville. On Rover:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
