“I wish I could leave 100 stars for Michael and Jackie! They welcomed our two pooches, Winnie and Ivy, while we were away for 8 days. It was our girls’ first time staying with them and I can honestly say it was our best Rover experience by far. The daily pictures and updates allowed us to enjoy our vacation knowing Winnie and Ivy were in great hands and were lovingly cared for. I’m not sure they were ready to come home! Thank you, thank you, thank you!”

About: I had a dog and we had to put her down last summer. We had dogs as a kid. And I love taking care of my neighbors and friends dogs. I’m not ready for the full-time commitment of having a pet yet. But I’d love to offer our home and our services to our neighbors and communities pets and treat them like a member of our family while their families are away I am currently unemployed And have a big yard that’s fenced in. Lots of time to take care of your pup. I like to keep their lives as consistent to home as possible I’d love to care for your pet the way I would care for my own and like a member of the family :) lots of pets and outside time as desired

“Anne watched my dog over a recent weekend, and I couldn’t have been happier with the experience. My dog can be a bit timid and struggles with some separation anxiety, but Anne was wonderful with her. She kept me updated with pictures and videos showing my dog calm, comfortable, and getting along beautifully. It gave me a lot of peace of mind, and I would absolutely feel comfortable leaving my dog with Anne again anytime.”

“This was the first time using Rover and leaving our pup. After a meet n greet with Molli and her daughter, we were able to get our questions answered. We noticed Molli's calm tone and temperament which helped ease our minds. We liked that Molli only watched one pet at a time and would allow Ozzy to sleep on the furniture. We knew her daughter was excited to help out which meant even more attention and playtime for our sweet Ozzy. There were lots of photos and messages sent keeping us updated throughout the week. Everything about this process went smoothly. We will absolutely use Molli again!!”

About: I have taken care of pets for over 33 years ever since getting my first dog at 7 years old. I’ve had dogs of all sizes and shapes including a Lhasa Apso, King Charles Spaniel, Golden Retrievers, Pitbull, Shihpoo, and Heeler/Daschund mix. They’ve ranged in ages from 8 week old puppy to 5 year old rescue when I brought them home and I nursed many through their senior years. Of course I love all pets so I’ve also had Bunnies, Fish, Cats, hermit crabs, frogs, and more. I love them all! Currently in my home I have a 1 year old Shihpoo name Mocha and a 5 year old Heeler/Dauschund mix named Luna. I promise to take care of your fur babies just as if they were mine! I am a single mother with lots of time on my hands to love on pets. I have a daughter in Junior High and a son in High School so I do run them back and forth to their activities but otherwise I’m ready to spend time with the fur babies. I have a fenced in backyard in a quiet neighborhood. I have a couple big trees for shade while pets are playing outdoors and a covered back porch for relaxing.

About: Combining my years of pet experience with my current flexibility as a stay-at-home wife allows me to provide an incredibly attentive, safe, and loving environment for your dog. As a stay-at-home wife, my schedule is incredibly flexible, so pet care fits perfectly into my daily life. Since I manage our household from home, I don't have a rigid 9-to-5 commute. This means your pet becomes a natural part of my day. I structure my routine around their needs—whether that’s morning walks, mid-day playtime in the yard, or just having them keep me company while I’m taking care of things around the house. They are rarely left alone and get consistent attention throughout the day I treat every furry friend exactly like my own They have full access to our main living spaces, plenty of comfortable spots to lounge, and they are never left unattended for long periods. I stick closely to whatever feeding, medication, and bathroom schedule they are used to at home so their routine stays completely normal. You can trust they are good hands.

“Ashley was just absolutely amazing! If I could give her 10 stars, I 100% would! She really went above and beyond taking care of our girl! We really enjoyed the consistent check-ins and pictures and appreciate the extra time she took to let us know how Harley was doing while we were away! I was so thrilled that she actually seemed to take the time to get to know our fur baby and treated her like one of her own! This was our first time boarding Harley, but Ashley made it so smooth and stress-free! Would definitely recommend and will be booking with her again in the future!”

About: My financee, Garrett, and I have cared for the wellbeing of several types of dogs since we were children. We live together, but it will primarily be me who is home with the dogs and if you need help in your home, it will always be me you will speak too. We have two fur babies together and would love to help you care for yours! I work 3 minutes from home and can usually return with in a few hours on days when I have to go to the office, which is fairly rare. I do work a 9-5, but I work hybrid remote. I have a fully privacy fenced in back yard. I let my own dogs out every 3-5 hours for the bathroom, as they are grown and do not need let out much, but I am able to accomodate any bathroom schedule necessary. I am able to keep a meds and feeding schedule as well as an exercise schedule easily with my job flexabilty. Our dogs sleep with us and eat twice a day. We keep a clean, happy home and love to let our dogs out back to run and play often! In the evenings, my fiancee and I can walk your dog or dogs with our own babies as we have multiple leashes with dual or multi-capacity.

About: Walking, bathing, and hanging out with dogs is some of my favorite downtime activities. Growing up with a dog I learned all the necessary skills to watch over a dog. I even volunteered at the humane society in both the dog and cat area for four years! I am currently a teacher so I work from 7-4pm Monday through Friday, but if you need someone to walk your dog at night or house sit for the weekend or even a week night, I am your person! My husband also works from home so if you’re boarding during the week day he is also here to help out if needed. Whatever you need me to do is what I will follow. I will come to your place as my animals do not take well to strangers. But rest assured I will take great care of your animal, in whatever capacity you need. At our home we two cats that do well with other dogs but tend to ignore them, and one dog who LOVES other dogs so no worries there.

About: I’ve been around pets my whole life and enjoy spoiling them. I have two dogs and a chinchilla. We also have a cat that we introduced to the home about 2 months ago. When I’m not working, I love playing, cuddling, and making sure they feel loved and spoiled. I would love the opportunity to welcome your pups into our home, give them lots of attention, and make them feel like part of the family. We have a large, fenced-in backyard where dogs have plenty of space to run, play, and explore. The yard is enclosed with a 5-foot chain-link fence to help keep everyone safe, including our dog Pepper, who loves to jump. We’re located in a quiet subdivision outside of town, away from busy highways, allowing us to provide a peaceful and secure environment for your pups to enjoy.

“SWEET and EASY. This entire family is the sweetest bunch you’ll ever meet! Debbie allowed us to do a meet and greet prior to the visit which went perfectly smooth and fun! Debbie sent picture updates of my pup all throughout the weekend she had her which really made me feel at ease about using Rover for the first time. She was very professional and took the job seriously. She really made it so much easier than I anticipated! I’m 100% sure my pup got more cuddles than I could have asked for and I’ll 100% for sure be contacting Debbie again next time I need a sitter! Highly recommend! :)”

I have a bit of an erratic schedule and my plans can change quickly. Charles and Sammy took my boys on short notice and were very flexible with the timeline of my trip. Merle and Duke are my two dogs, they are 8 years old but still have youthful energy and a need to play and explore. While I was an away we received daily photos of them engaging with other dogs and going on walks. It was a real peace of mind for us knowing that the dogs were being cared for both physically and mentally. 10/10 would recommend Charles and Sammy to anyone.

Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .

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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.

If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
