“This is our dogs 3rd stay with Catherine. I have only felt comfortable leaving them with family before I met Catherine. She is truly an animal lover and you can enjoy your time away from them without worry. Our terrier mix has always been skittish with people and after his 1st stay with her ran right up to her door ahead of us. I highly recommend her to anyone so you can enjoy a stress free vacation.”
“Patty is wonderful with our Baybee. It was the first time apart and for us pretty nerve wreaking, but every day I received pictures and updates that warmed my heart to see our little girl so happy.”
“Amazingly kind. She has one small dog diva. Our frenchies are not dog aggressive but nosy. We felt totally at ease leaving them. She has a good sense about dogs and wasn’t overwhelmed by our nosy Frenchie. Home was well established to accommodate two dogs. When we went to pick up they had company. We were excited for a chiefs win so we all talked about the game. They were very personable. Our frenchies were so tired. With all of the activity the dogs were more than well entertained. We picked them up around 7 and they slept for 14 hours straight. They were exhausted which just means they stayed busy didn’t sleep a lot cause there was always something going on. Highly recommend and will use again. Thank you for the day service. It met our needs perfectly. Their location was close to i~70 and easy to find.”
“Bandit was so happy and calm when I picked him up. It was very clear he was comfortable and well taken care of! She took him on several walks and sent many pictures. He was a HAPPY BOY!!”
“Stevie is a gem. Our little Romie was very well taken care of. We loved the daily updates, and photos. We are not sure if we can now live up to what our Romie experienced at Stevie's house. While at Stevies our 3 months old Romie learned how to negotiate stairs. We highly recommend her.”
“Laura was fantastic with our 1-yr-old Havanese, Ramen. She was attentive to details, sent photo and text updates, and her house was the perfect haven for our furbaby. He looked so happy and was clearly well-cared for. Laura shows that she loves dogs, is attuned to the anxiety that dog parents can have with boarding your furbaby, and was responsive. We loved leaving Ramen in her care. Thanks, Laura!”
“Best family out there to watch your puppers. Harley had a great time and always made me feel safe knowing she was in good hands. Communication and photos were 10/10. Definitely looking forward to letting them watch Harley again! Highly recommended sitters!”
“Laurie was so welcoming to our Jojo, and although this first visit was somewhat stressful to our girl, Laurie continued to yry to make her comfortable. We're so appreciative of all the communication and helpful ideas for future visits. The pictures helped ease our stress as well. Definitely will be seeing Laurie again!”
“Noreen took care of our guy last minute. She was wonderful and sent us many pictures and updates throughout the weekend. We wouldn’t hesitate to leave our pup with her again!”
“Isha and Great took great care of our little dog recently. She came back happy and tired, which means they gave her a lot of love and attention. They also provided updates daily with photos. Highly recommend!”
“Madelyn and Tevin watched our beautiful baby Dunkin and it was such an outstanding experience. We received daily photos and videos and we received updates on how he was doing, Dunkin had a lot of playtime and had amazing fun in the backyard daily. Madelyn is very caring and loving to our furry baby. I highly recommend Madelyn and Trevon anyone that needs a pet sitter.”
“This was my first time using Rover for sitting service. Erin had lots of positive reviews and was a great dog sitter for my pet. She sent me daily updates along with pictures which was fun to receive. It was a great experience and I'm already scheduling my dog's next stay. I would highly recommend giving Erin a try. You will be glad you did!”
“The best experience with Katie!! Our King Charles, Bentley, got the best of care on our recent trip to Kansas City. She was a caring professional from our first meeting. She won over Bentley in just a few minutes. She kept us updated daily with pictures and information. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Highly recommend!!”
“I have a 6yo Olde English Bulldogge named Decimus. I went on a Family Retreat to Gatlinburg, Tn. for a week. I was unaware the place booked did not allow pets. I booked Christine to watch my furbaby. She did a most excellent job taking care of him & with his special instructions. Daily updates with several pictures. I highly recommend! 5 stars definitely.”
“Lori is fantastic! Our pup always has a great time with her when we have to head out of town. She is polite, accomadating, and cares for our animals like we would. She's our go to for Rover services.”
“Daisy seemed to have a great time with Mackenzie! Very well at communicating and sending photos! When I picked her up she was bathed and even had a bandana on her! Mackenzie took very well of my doggie. Will book with her again!”
“Alex and Jacquelynne took great care of our dog, Tofu, over the weekend. They kept us updated with photos and messages, and it was clear that Tofu was happy and well cared for.

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 Wood Heights home-away-from-home, 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 Wood Heights.
<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 Wood Heights 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 , 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 .
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.
