“Barbara is so good with our kitties! She’s great at pilling them and leaves pictures and updates each day. She brings a bag of goodies for the kitties to play with and left us a thoughtful welcome home gift too! We are so glad we found her!”
“It’s terrible leaving our furry baby, but having Julie check in on her gives us a great deal of peace of mind. Plus our cat says she loves her!”
“Kate did a wonderful job taking care of our two kitties. She was easy to communicate with, arrived on time and followed the instructions that I provided. I have marked her as one of my favorites in Rover.”
“Highly recommended! So caring and knowledgeable and so nice to not have to worry about leaving my cat at home by herself. Thank you so much!!”
“Beth did an amazing job! She was responsive to things whether it was a concern or a little favor. We had a big storm while we were away and she took some pictures of the damage the storm did! She spent some time with my cat and played with him to give him some company! Would recommend her for anyone needing a dog or cat sitter!”
“This was our first time looking for a sitter in MO and picked well! She addressed my main concern while gone which was locating the hiding cat-not an easy feat! We will definitely be using her again!”
“Once again, Julene did an amazing job caring for my cat, Sweet Pea! Julene sent lots of photos and updates at each visit. Sweet Pea was a happy kitty when I returned. There was a power outage during one of the visits, and Julene offered to check anything that might need attention due to the outage. She is amazing!! Bonnie A.”
“Elizabeth was such a welcome surprise. During our initial visit, she asked questions we never dreamed to cover. Her background and experience with animals makes her very knowledgeable and brought us a lot of comfort. We felt very comfortable leaving knowing that she would be visiting with our kitty. While we were gone she sent fabulous pictures and her level of communication was excellent. Our cat, Shady, loves her and so do we. We will definitely be relying on Elizabeth again. Thanks, Elizabeth!”
About: I’ve been dog-sitting since I was a child, caring for a wide variety of breeds—from Toy Poodles to Golden Doodles. Dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities have a special place in my heart. I currently have a 10-year-old Havaton named Winnie, who’s been my loyal companion for years, so I know firsthand how important it is to find someone who treats your dog like family. Over the years, I’ve walked, fed, bathed, and cared for dogs with unique needs—from anxious pups to high-energy breeds and sweet seniors. I believe every dog deserves to feel safe, seen, and deeply loved. Whether your dog needs extra cuddle time, play breaks, or just a calm, reassuring presence, I tailor my care to match their individual personality and routine. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine right now! I recently graduated this past May and am currently focusing on finding the right post-grad job. While I navigate this next chapter, I’m using pet sitting and dog walking to stay active, earn some extra income, and spend time doing something I genuinely love. I’ve always had a deep love for animals, and caring for them brings me so much joy and peace. Plus, I enjoy getting outside, going for walks, and being present with animals—it’s the perfect balance while I focus on my career goals. I’m flexible, dependable, and committed to making sure your pets are happy, safe, and well cared for. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I always prioritize safety, comfort, and keeping their routine consistent. In your home, I aim to make your pet feel secure while you’re away by sticking closely to their feeding schedule, walking routine, and preferred activities—whether that’s playtime, snuggles, or quiet companionship. I treat your space with respect and make sure your pet feels loved and at ease in their familiar environment. If I’m caring for pets in my home, they’ll be part of a calm, loving environment with plenty of attention, potty breaks, and cozy spots to relax. I have two cats and one dog who are all friendly and used to being around other animals, so I always make sure introductions are gradual and stress-free. No matter the setting, I show up with patience, kindness, and the goal of making your pet feel like I’m a trusted friend, not just a sitter.
“10/10 Cynthia is amazing! Our “dogs” were actually two donkeys and not your average pet sitting. She has previous experience with horses so she handled all their needs without missing a beat. We are excited to have someone that can help us with our unique animals when we need to leave town. Looking forward to using Cynthia in the future!”
About: Hello! My name is Steven Willard and I love animals. I have always had pets growing up as a child and I've continued to have pets into adulthood. I enjoy learning and understanding all different types of animals from dogs, cats, reptiles, and small pets. My experience in pet care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends, and neighbors pets. My wife and I have 3 dogs, 2 old beagles (Ollie 12 years old and Henry 11 years old) and a 6 year old aussie/beagle mix named Kaylee. We walk them around our neighborhood on a regular basis and play with them in our yard. We have a 4 year old Siamese cat named Blitz and we recently had a bearded dragon who passed away. Having older dogs, I have had a lot of practice with giving dogs medication mostly in pill form. I've also had experience with puppies and kittens. I have a flexible schedule and will keep my calendar up to date with availability. I have a lot of weekend availability for walking and drop-ins. I am happy to walk and play with your pets. I have experience administering medication to older dogs and cats. I have a high attention to detail regarding my surroundings as I have runners that like to try and get out when the doors are open.
“Laure was absolutely awesome. She came by our house multiple times for two weeks when we went on vacation. She spent time with my 18 tear old cat Jude so she wasn't lonely. She made sure Jude had all she needed, fed her and our stray kitties, she even brushed Jude!! I would recommend her to everyone”
“Barbara was fantastic! She was incredibly reliable and took great care of Murphy while we were out of town. She kept us updated with plenty of photos and videos, which gave us peace of mind knowing Murphy was safe, happy, and well cared for. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive cat sitter.”
“Ashley was AMAZING! Emi was very happy and very well taken care of. Ashley made sure to make some time for play and cuddles and was very responsive. She even went out of her way to clean anything in the space that needed cleaning up, took out the trash, and wiped Emi’s messes without me asking. Super trustworthy and a fantastic experience!”
“Lori was amazing with our two cats! She updated us every day with how they were doing and made sure they were still living their best lives while we were away. This was our first time using Rover and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We will definitely be a repeat client!”
About: I’ve dog sat since I was 14 years old! Have 2 pups of my own and experience with all aged dogs. Can’t wait to meet yours! I’m part time currently so have a lot of room to work your special friend into my schedule. Happy to take care before or after work as well. I’m happy to host your pup as long as they get along with other dogs! My dog loves to have new friends around! I have experience with both fenced and un fenced yards as well as crating pups.
“This was above and beyond what I ever expected. I would recommend these 2 to anyone looking for help with their dogs. They sent nice detailed messages and pictures every day.”
About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life, growing up with both cats and dogs and caring for them as part of the family. I currently share my home with two cats, a Black Lab, and a German Shepherd. I love spending time outdoors and especially enjoy hiking with the dogs and exploring nature together. I look forward to connecting with your pets I homeschool my 4 children and as they are getting older, I am finding more pockets of time in my schedule. Every day is a little different for us so I am flexible and have availability at different times throughout the day. I can carefully follow instructions based on your pet’s individual needs. I have a peaceful energy and really try to pay attention to their body language and what they are trying to tell me through that. I am very active and can walk long distances.
“Tamara did a fantastic job with my older dog. She kept me informed while I was gone. I would definitely recommend her!”
About: Hello! I’m a pre-vet student at SEMO with a lifelong love for animals. I have always had pets in my house and I have hands-on experience caring for senior and young dogs, senior cats, and small birds. I’m also comfortable administering oral medication and providing specialized care based on your pet’s needs. Your pets will be in safe, and loving hands! I currently work a part-time job with varying hours, but I always make time for your fur babies! Outside of work, my schedule is very flexible, and I’d love to help out whenever you need a reliable and caring sitter. Pets in my home are treated more as a guest rather than a pet, they are allowed to hang out on the furniture or play outside in the fenced in backyard whenever they want. We also have space for crates if your animal has specific needs!

Savanna W.
“Savanna has always had a special bond with animals. From the time she was little, we could see how naturally nurturing and responsible she was—whether it was caring for her first hamster, Chewy, or lovingly tending to Peaches the guinea pig and Tiki the chameleon. Now, as an adult, she continues to show that same deep care with our family pets—Winnie (our dog), Tigger (our senior cat), and Phoebe (our youngest fluffball). She’s incredibly attentive to their needs, knows their routines inside and out, and always makes sure they feel safe, loved, and enriched. Whether she’s administering meds, brushing out Phoebe’s fur, or making sure Winnie gets her walk and cuddle time, Savanna takes pet care seriously—and does it with so much heart. Anyone would be lucky to have her caring for their pets like she does ours.”

She goes above and beyond-providing long walks, companionship, and plenty of comfort. We especially appreciate the photo updates she sends; seeing our dog’s happy face while we’re away always reassures us that he’s in great hands. We couldn’t ask for a better sitter.”
