About: My name is Alexis and I will be your pet's new best friend! I have cared for many animals in my life. I grew up on a small farm caring for chickens, cows, cats, small birds, and dogs. I've had dogs all my life as my constant companions. I've cared for friends' and family's animals while they were away. Including dogs ranging from chihuahuas to great danes and from puppies to the elderly. I've also been caring for animals professionally for about 6 years now. I've cared for hobby farms (pigs, chickens, guineas, emus, turkeys, geese, ducks, goats), dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, amphibians, and small birds. I'm always willing to take on a new experience. I will provide individual quality care to each pup and will willingly help with any extra pup related requests (Baths, brushing, and medications). I am also always available by phone if you would like to ask any questions about me or how I will help take care of your precious pet. I know that each animal is an important member of the family, and assure that I will take the best of care of your best friend. Rover does not offer rates for animals outside of cats and dogs but if you reach out I'll be happy to offer you a quote for any animal. If you have multiple animals, we can discuss their care and I'll be happy to over a quote. I'm a college student so my schedule is pretty open and flexible. Perfect for all your dog's needs! I always open and honest about my schedule and will never cancel last minute. My goal is to keep your pet happy and maintain their routine. I'll always have my eyes on your dog whether it's at home, on a walk, or at a dog park. I also strive to keep your home how you left it though if you need a few chores done I don't mind helping out.
About: I’ve always had a huge love for animals and genuinely enjoy spending time with them. I’ve cared for all different kinds of animals and previously worked at a doggy daycare/boarding facility. I’m currently in college studying pre veterinary medicine, so caring for animals is something I’m truly passionate about. I’d love to give your pets the same love, attention, and care I’d want for my own! I’m currently a college student, so my schedule can vary, but I have plenty of time to care for your pets. I’m available Monday, Wednesday, and Friday after 1 PM, as well as most weekends. I’m happy to work around your schedule whenever possible! I treat every pet as if they were my own and take the time to learn their personality, routine, and what makes them comfortable. Whether they need a long walk, some playtime, extra attention, or just someone to keep them company, I’m happy to be there for them. I’ll always follow your instructions and make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away.
About: I've had many pets all my life, multiple dogs and cats. I've dealt with all different personalities with our cats. I love animals and have always had a soft spot for them. I'm currently a Sophomore at UT Tyler, and have two classes in person and the rest online. My week is pretty clear, my cat is self sufficient with her automatic feeder and litter box. I would take the dogs on walks, care for them throughout the day, feed when needed. For cats, I would make sure they are drinking enough water and well stimulated.
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was about 10, I’m 21 now. My major is Pre-Veterinary because I’ve had a love for animals and dream of being a vet since I was 7. I have a cat of my own, Luna, and she’s my world. I treat her like a baby so I would love to share the same love to your fur babies! I work full-time as a manager at Walmart, and I’m a full time college student (online). I’m pretty fair and understanding with scheduling, as long as you reach out in advance. If my schedule doesn’t fit for you, I do not mind adjusting to accommodate you and your fur babies! I also don’t have an issue with last minute planning, just be mindful of scheduling issues or certain questions I asks in regards of the service you’ve requested! When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, and get plenty of exercise and attention throughout the day. I also monitor their behavior to make sure they are happy, healthy, and not feeling stressed while their owner is away. As well as in a clients home, I respect your space and specific instructions on pet care! Ensuring your pets and home’s safety is never an issue.
About: I have been around animals all my life! I currently have 5 babies! My little boy, 2 dogs (a lab mix & a chi-weenie) and 2 cats (a tortie queen & a maine-coon mix). From the time I was a young girl through my college years I helped my grandparents take care of cows and chickens. I currently work part time and I'm a delivery driver as well so it fits perfectly into my schedule! Currently I am able to look after pets on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, but I'm hoping to expand into the work week soon. I'll look after your babies as if they were my own! I have a fenced in inner back yard as well as a fenced in outer yard. Inside I have two litter boxes for the kitties.
About: I worked as a program director for a nonprofit animal rescue in Jacksonville, Texas for six years. My specialty was working with behavioral dogs. Especially bringing in feral dogs and working with them to socialize them until they were ready to get a home. I have always been a pet owner and have owned multiple dogs at a time. I am comfortable with all types of dogs. Young & old, big & small, well-trained or needs some work, I love them all! I have been in the trenches in animal rescue so you will be hard pressed to find a situation that intimidates me. I also love cats & am comfortable caring for them. I own & care for a ball python so I’m comfortable with snakes as well. I’m open to other reptiles and small animals. I’m really open to any animals as long as someone is willing to show me the care they require. During the week, I have a very flexible schedule. You tell me what you need and I can probably make it work. Weekends will be open as well, but slightly less flexible. But I’m always open to negotiations.☺️🐾✌️ I can not offer care in my home due to my current setup but I am more than willing to meet all your needs at your home & am very qualified as a sitter! I am a lifelong animal lover & have years of extensive experience caring for animals, dealing with medical issues, behavioral issues, training, transporting & helping them find forever homes. I have experience with feral dogs & cats, hospice animals, & happy/healthy ones! I have done some amazing things in my career. But I have retired from the trauma of Rescue and now would like to have a more easy-going time getting to love on some babies that just want a sitter.🐾❤️

About: Hey! My name is Stefanie and I have been taking care of animals for almost my entire life. I have experience with both cats and dogs and would love to watch your pets for you. I hold myself to the same standards that I would expect from my own pet sitters. I can handle animals of all shapes and sizes, even your giant breeds! I have experience in the veterinary field and have cared for pets with all types of dietary restrictions, medical needs, and temperaments - so if your pet needs some special attention, I'm your gal! I have had dogs for almost my entire life. As a child my family had a Lhasa Apso, and he lived a long and happy life with us. I have had pets of my own since 2014, and all my pups are seniors now - they have a special place in my heart! I also have two sweet young cats and would love to check on your feline kiddos. I am a full time mother so I am readily available for drop in visits, overnights, and walks. Please note that my infant son will be with me during all visits. I will of course assume responsibility for my kiddo being safe around your pets, but please be mindful of your pets' temperament with children when booking! My ideal scenario when caring for your pets is to adopt their current routine - I find that keeps them the happiest while their people are away. I'm happy to visit on whatever schedule is best for you, and I'm happy to do overnights as needed.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Wright City is $16 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $18 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 295 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Wright City. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Wright City. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
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.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
