House Sitting Academy

“Latasha was wonderful! From the beginning she came for a meet and greet and got down on the floor with my Percy! She asked very specific questions about his routine and wanted to ensure he was as comfortable as possible. During her stay she was very interactive with Percy. Took him on outings and walks and made sure he had plenty of play time and attention. On a night of a storm she let Percy sleep in bed with her to help comfort him!! Any concerns she had she messaged me immediately. She was great about sending updates and pictures to make sure I felt he was in good hands which definitely decreased my worries. Latasha treated my home with respect and left my home just as she found it. She even helped me with my newly planted garden to ensure it stayed watered while I was away. I will definitely use Latasha again in the future.”

“Ross was wonderful. Frequent communication, pictures of the doggo living his best life, and excellent pet care. He confidently handled my reactive dog who is not easy to walk. My house was neat and clean upon return, honestly could barely tell he had been here! Would absolutely book again or recommend to anyone.”

Molly T.

“Zach was amazing with Acacia, she’s super timid and he was very patient with her. I loved receiving photos and updates from him, and he really eased my mind while I was away from Acacia. I hope to work with Zach more in the future! 10/10 service. He also left the house exactly as we asked!”

“Another successful booking with Chloe for our 3 pups! I received daily photos/videos, daily medication was administered, and the pups were in great spirits upon our return. You can tell they were well cared for.”

Erica S.

“Megan was wonderful and so easy to work with! She sent lots of pictures and updates throughout the 3 weeks that she watched our dog and leopard gecko.”

Emily P.

“Tori was so great! Took good care of all of our animals, was a lovely guest in our home, shared frequent photos and status updates, and was overall a pleasure to work with. Will be rebooking. :)”

“Marsha cared and entertained our exuberant 1 year 3 month old King Charles/ Irish Setter for 5 days. She noticed a stick he had chewed got caught in the roof of his mouth and removed it quickly. She took charge quickly and communicated about Murphy’ care daily and reassured us with short videos. Our cat also benefitted from her expert care. I heartily recommend Marsha for house sitting and am grateful she watched over Murphy and our cat Chase. Thank you, Marsha.”

“Asia did a great job caring for my fur babies! She did great with applying ointment and giving extra care to my dog while she was in a cone (a last-minute change after our meet and greet 🥴). She kept me updated with daily photos. Thanks, Asia!”

Hannah B.

“Emma was absolutely wonderful with our dog Jack. He is an old guy who was not doing well and she went above and beyond making him comfortable. We highly recommend Emma. She is really super.”

Kathleen S.

“Ashley was incredible! We needed help at the last minute as we were heading out of the country and Ashley happily stepped in and treated our pup like a queen.”

Sara S.

“Julia is amazing!! She’s kind, reliable, and so easy to work with. She made us feel completely comfortable leaving our dogs with her, and when we got back, they were happy and well cared for. We can’t wait to have her back. Five stars all the way—highly recommend!!!”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and grew up caring for them daily. I’ve raised a puppy and currently have a well-trained dog of my own. I’m comfortable with dogs of all ages and personalities, from energetic puppies to calm seniors. I’m attentive, patient, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs, making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I’m currently working part-time but am available most days during the week and can be flexible with scheduling as needed for pet care and walks. I prioritize safety and trust in every visit. I follow owner instructions closely, keep dogs on-leash during walks, avoid unsafe situations, and ensure pets are never left unattended. In a client’s home, I respect their space, maintain cleanliness, and make sure pets are comfortable, secure, and cared for the entire time.

“Haley is a phenomenal dog sitter, we were extremely pleased with her attention to detail and gentleness with our very shy and excitable pit bull. She is a wonderful communicator and spent a lot of quality time with our dog. I will absolutely refer her as a pet sitter to any friend in need.”

Allison H.

“Extremely professional and sent several updates throughout our weekend away! Looking forward to Max taking care of our fur babies in the future!”

About: I’m an attentive, deeply responsible pet sitter with a warm heart and a professional approach to care. I’ve been pet sitting since I was a child, loving and caring for dogs, cats, reptiles, and more. I’m always open to learning and training because your peace of mind matters to me. My background in a detail-driven healthcare field means I value precision, safety, and following care plans exactly as written. Whether your pet has two legs, four, or more, I treat them with the same care and respect I give to my own family members. I’ll treat your pet like my own and give them the attention, comfort, and best care they deserve. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I’m currently working part-time and have flexibility over my schedule. I can build in extra time for daily walks, feeding, play sessions, and care plan tasks without rushing. This means I’m able to stay consistent, be present with your pet, and adjust my day as needed to match their routine and comfort. I care for pets in your home since my place doesn’t allow pets indoors. I’ve been around animals all my life, and like many pet owners, I’ve learned to recognize their cues and patterns simply from growing up with them. It may take a little time to learn your pet’s quirks, but I enjoy that process and find it fun to understand what makes them feel safe and happy. The level of care I provide matches your pet’s specific needs. If you just need walks or drop-in visits, I’m happy with that. If your pet needs medication, special feeding, or other care tasks, I’m comfortable handling those too. I’m ready to rise to the level your pet needs and will follow your care plan exactly.

“Hayden did a good job taking care of Jack while I was out of town. She was very attentive to his needs and made me feel comfortable. Communication was good.”

Don M.

“Terry was fabulous! He and our dog Gus bonded beautifully—hung out together, went for runs, played ball…we got frequent updates on how Gus was doing, along with photos and videos. Highly recommend Terry!”

Paivi T.

“Jennifer took care of our two high energy dogs without any issues! She was incredibly responsive and left our house in great condition. I highly recommend her.”

Steve L.

“TzuYu is an absolute jewel! She was very attentive to our schedule and to our little doggie’s needs. I couldn’t ask for a better sitter. She came with treats and a welcoming greeting for our dog. I would definitely request her again.”

About: Hi! I’m Erin, and I’m currently accepting new pet sitting clients in the St. Louis area. I work at Saint Louis University and also work part-time as a caregiver, so being dependable, responsible, and communicative is a huge part of my everyday life. I’m a lifelong dog owner and currently have a Lab mix of my own, so I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and energy levels. I offer drop-in visits, dog walking, feeding, potty breaks, medication administration (oral medications), playtime, and overnight pet sitting. I provide regular photo and text updates so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. Unfortunately, I’m allergic to cats, so I’m only accepting dog and other non-cat household pet clients at this time. If you’re looking for someone reliable who will care for your dog like family, I’d love to connect. Feel free to message me with your location, dates, and what services you’re looking for. I currently have a full time role at SLU that offers remote days and flexible hours. I am able to adjust my schedule to manage both. I am very comfortable working with larger energetic dogs and those who may be a bit more timid. My family dog is a bull mastiff boxer mix who can run around for hours on end and my dog is an anxious couch potato through and through.
