“I am very happy with Amanda’s cat sitting. My cat is very resistant to taking her medication and Amanda was able to get her to take it every day. Amanda even came over on Christmas, which was great! She sent pictures and kept me updated on how my cat was eating and doing. I would definitely hire Amanda again during my next vacation.”

About: I’ve been taking care of different pets since the age of 11. I have been trusted by more than 10 different families to take care of their pets. I am currently doing online school so I have plenty of free time to take care of everyone’s lovely pets during any weekday and any weekend. I have 1 fur baby. She often loves playing outside for hours on end. I have plenty of toys, plenty of fence for her to run around, and a wonderful environment for her.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 10 and have experience with all sizes—from tiny Chihuahuas to big breeds like German Shepherds and Presa Canarios. I’m confident handling high-energy pups, gentle with seniors, and patient with shy or stubborn personalities. Whether your dog needs a long walk, playtime, or meds, I’ve got it covered. I treat every pup like my own and always make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved! 🐾 Mondays & Wednesdays: Evenings after 7 PM 🐾 Tuesdays & Thursdays: Early mornings 🐾 Fridays: Currently unavailable (subject to change) 🐾 Saturdays: Evenings after 5 PM 🐾 Sundays: Available all day I’m happy to work with your schedule when I can, so feel free to reach out with any questions! While I don’t currently offer overnight boarding, I do have a fenced-in backyard where my dogs love to run and play—it’s a great space for safe outdoor time! As for my cat, she’s not a fan of the outdoors, but I still make sure she gets enrichment and movement by taking her on walks when she’s in the mood. I’m all about giving pets what they need to feel happy, safe, and comfortable.
“My second time working with Alexandra. She's always prompt and accommodating. And my little babies like to play with her. It took one of them a little bit of time to warm up... Cats... But now she probably won't be able to keep them off of her lol Thank you”
About: I grew up with dogs all my life-big and small. I love all animals and have had many different animals including snakes, tarantula, birds, cats other reptiles and of course dogs throughout my life. My friends have told me that I should work with animals because of my knowledge, how I teach and take care of animals. Friends come to me for advice about their animals. Not only do I love and respect animals I genuinely love and respect nature and the world. I'm retired so I have time for my animals and your animal babies too. Most of my time is spent with my grandsons and Anakin; my dog, outside doing yardwork or in one of many parks in St Louis. I walk my dog in my yard on leash or walk to the park down the street from my house, weather permitting. I can walk your dog the same way or come to your house to take care of your animal baby. I'm retired/disabled and have one dog to take care of at the moment. I'm at home most of the time so I have time and love for other people's pets too. The only other thing that keeps me busy are my 3 youngest grandsons who also love animals and I teach them to respect and to be kind to animals. *If you need a service but see in my calendar I'm not available you can message me because most of the days I'm not available is usually only for 3 to 4 hours during that day and I could possibly be available for what you need* I have one bird and I keep his cage clean, change his water regularly and make sure he has food. I have one dog at home that I take out on leash in my front yard, walk him as many days a week as possible to the park directly down the street from my house, I rub his belly, give him treats when he's a good boy and play with him with his toys. All the stuff I do for my animals, I would do for your animals as well.
About: I was raised by a vet tech of 20 years to love and respect animals as much as humans. I love animals and know that any strong relationship is founded on love and trust, and I promise to give your pets the same level of love you would! I work part time mornings in a breakfast restaurant usually from 8-3, but hours can vary slightly. If they vary. 8-3 are the longest my hours are but sometimes they are shorter. I work weekends and the days during the week can vary. Dogs must be able to be at home alone that long because I am unfortunately unable to stop by mid day to let them out on days that I work. Feel free to message me and we can discuss schedules to determine if we will be a good fit for each other. I can stay over night with your pets to guarantee safety. I am extremely careful when traveling through doors to avoid possible escape and ensure doors are securely latched behind me as well.

Berkeley cat parents share their Rover experiences
Alex did beyond an amazing job and I could not recommend enough! My Huskey and Cat loved all the attention and I didn't need to worry about them as he made sure they had everything they needed! 12/10 if you're needing someone to watch your pets while on vacation!
Taylor was soo sweet and attentive to our kitty while we were gone. She was great at communicating any schedule changes and left a detailed review of her visits, along with some cute pictures of our cat. I would definitely recommend her for your future pet-sitter needs!
