About: Hello! I have 9+ years working with dogs professionally. I’m a professional trainer, who also does anything from sitting, walking, being a friend, whatever your pup needs in particular! I have 12 years experience owning dogs, and generally caring for them. I’m currently pursuing a bachelors degree for canine behavior studies & science, as well as training courses (one is GoodPup through Rover’s program). I have studied under two trainers with 35 years of experience. I have two wonderful pups of my own. I promise to treat yours just like I treat mine - with love, care, and respect! I’ve worked with dogs of all breeds, personalities, and sizes. Feel free to message with any questions or concerns! Thank you :) My schedule is flexible! I am available most days: morning, evening, or night. Message me and I will let you know if I’m not available - and we can work something out! I care for pets by: listening carefully to your instructions and input. I also am well versed in dog body language and behavior, so pairing that with your instructions will help me greatly to understand your pup and make sure they have the best time possible! I will also make sure they of course go out frequently, always have water, are happy and mentally and physically stimulated! There’s many other ways I don’t have room to fit in here so, if you have any questions please don’t hesitate to reach out!

“Aubrey was fantastic! She didn’t mind my long instructions and took great care of my dog. We will definitely be rebooking with her. I’d give her more than 5 stars if I could!”


“Leah was perfect! We got regular updates with pictures and videos. She asked great questions on the initial interview and she genuinely loved meeting our pups. Plus the pups loved her too. She has followed all the detailed notes we left her. We will definitely have her watch our pups again.”


“When our normal dog watcher was unavailable, Sara stepped in and made my wife and I extremely comfortable to trust her with our two dogs on short notice. Even with the short notice, she came out to meet our boys and answered all of our questions regarding our request for house sitting. Sara was so considerate of our two dogs while house sitting. She made sure to send plenty of photos and was very respectful of our home. We plan on using Sara for any future needs to watch our dogs.”


“Buddy seemed to enjoy hanging out with Taylor! She sent multiple pictures each day and followed his instructions. She left my house tidy and even ran the dishwasher before she left.”


About: I have taken care of animals since I was about six years old. I always watched neighbor's animals and cared for them as well as family and friends. I have no issues with giving medications orally to an animal and getting them their exercise in a backyard, going for a walk, or even going to the dog park to go have fun. My goal in life is to pursue a career working with animals while caring for my children. I am currently not working, so I have plenty of time for caring for pets while I am going through college. Tuesdays, I am not available from 2 PM to 315, but before and after that I am available. I am comfortable with using a dog lead if your pet requires it or just taking them on a walk if you do not have a fenced in backyard. If you have animals that have separate foods, I am perfectly willing to separate them in different locations in order for them to eat their own as I have to do this with my cats given 2 of them have urinary issues.

“Mary is a great person, friendly and attentive. Tremendous communication. I felt comfortable with her in charge”


“Amy house sat with our boys while we were away for a weekend, due to family emergency. She is very personable, responsive, punctual & such a delight to work with! We received constant updates and pictures throughout her stay and returned home to an immaculate house and happy boys. Kobe managed to find some baby bunnies in the yard, and Amy's awareness, attentiveness & quick-thinking saved the bunnies from what would probably have been an otherwise poor outcome. Porter was heavily shedding, and Amy even took initiative to give him a good brushing! We would absolutely love to have Amy back for any future stays.”


“Alexandra was great! We got daily pictures and updates while we were away and she stayed with our dog and cat. She took great care of our house while staying here as well! We would definitely book her again in the future!”


“Savannah is great at communicating and took such good care of our multiple dogs. Really appreciated all her help and would definitely use her again!”


About: Helloooo! My name is Michelle O. I am “THE PUPPY LOVER”, I am 20 years old I have plans on being a phlebotomist and a veterinarian! I love friendly dogs, old dogs, hyper dogs, small dogs, big dogs, all except MEAN dogs! I give dogs my full undivided attention and treat them as if they are my own. I will not have a problem giving your dog a bath or if needed a flea treatment; I will take your dog on walks, feed them at least 3 times a day depending on size, and pet them non-stop! I do have a unfenced backyard, so a well trained dog is preferred, unless the client will have to provide a leashed stake for the yard! Clients must provide dog food! -LOVE, Michelle

About: During my time in a Service Fraternity at my university, I volunteered at Animal Care and Control of St. Louis on a weekly basis. The time I spent working here allowed me to gain crucial skills needed for understanding and working with animals. I have also spent time watching cats and dogs for friends while they off on vacation! I start medical school in August, but will have time to watch animals between study sessions and class. Currently, I am working part time as a science teacher at the middle school for summer school and am off at 1:30 pm, Monday through Thursday. Additionally, I have all of July off. I will not be providing boarding services. This is due to physical restrictions that will be imposed on the animal. I would prefer to house sit in a place where the animal is comfortable and less likely to be anxious.

About: From a young age, I've had a deep passion for animals! 🐾 I always dreamed of having my own little zoo, but my family wasn't quite as enthusiastic about it. I did have the wonderful opportunity to attend vet school during high school, which gave me some valuable experience with medications. I also spent some time working at a vet office! Currently, I share my home with my sweet baby-dog named Leilani and a sassy cat named Selena, so I have a bit of experience with different furry friends. To add, I've even had rabbits as pets growing up! 15 years of bunnies to be exact! Additionally, I work as a pet grooming technician, so if your beloved pet needs a bath or a nail trim, I would be more than happy to help! 🐶🐱🐰✨ I'm working a 2nd job (in the animal business) but I'm usually only working 3 days a week so I have a lot of free time off. I will make sure your home is pet-safe while you are gone! If there is a mess made, I'll make sure to let you know and clean up said mess. If needed, I can crate your pet for a little while. Whatever you need or want me to do for your baby, I'll do my best!


“We are very pleased with Molly's services. She sent multiple pics/videos and took excellent care of our canine's and home. We highly recommend her for house/pet sitting!”


About: Hello! My name is Bethany and I have been caring for animals for my entire life. I even made a career out of it for a decade! Including schooling, I was in the animal care field from 2010 to 2014 and was a registered veterinary technician from 2014 to 2022, after which I pursued other career interests. If your pet has special needs, especially medical, I am equipped with the knowledge and skill to make sure your pet is well taken care of. My prices reflect the loving expertise I will show your pet while caring for them. Currently, I work as a librarian. If you would like services in addition to those listed here (nail trims, ear cleaning, anal gland expression, bathing/brushing, etc) please ask! I am a strong advocate of rescue/adoption, Fear Free techniques, and positive reinforcement training, however my passion lies in helping senior pets with hospice care. My first dog, Chewie, was diagnosed with cancer and I discovered this passion while caring for him in his final year. Currently, I have adopted a rescued puppy mill mama Yorkie named Rey and a Miniature Schanuzer named Wicket. However, I have experience caring for a whole range of animals including cats, pocket pets, and exotics. I currently work part time, 5 hours a day, in either the evenings or the mornings, depending on what day of the week it is. While at a client's house, I prefer to keep to the pet's normal routine as much as possible as disruption can cause stress. So please let me know how you take care of your pets at home, what their daily routine is line, and how they spend their time so I can make sure they can be as stress free as possible while you are away.

About: i’ve always had a deep love for dogs, even though i never had the chance to have my own growing up. my mom wasn’t a fan of animals, so i missed out on the joy of having a furry friend by my side. that’s why dog sitting feels like a dream come true for me! it’s the perfect way for me to spend time with these wonderful creatures and give them all the love and care they deserve. whether it’s going for walks, playing fetch, or just snuggling on the couch, i can’t think of a better way to spend my time. plus, i get to meet so many adorable dogs and experience the joy of having a little canine companion, even if it’s just for a short while. i typically work part time in the evenings, five days a week, which keeps me busy but still allows me some flexibility. on top of that, i’m also studying for my state board exams to become a licensed esthetician. i have a gentle touch when it comes to my friends’ furry companions, whether it’s a pet rat, dog, or a guinea pig. there’s something special about the way animals respond to me-they always seem to gravitate towards me and let me know that they see me as a trusted human. i genuinely enjoy spending time with all kinds of pets, making sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for. it’s a wonderful feeling to earn their trust and see them happy and comfortable around me.

Elizabeth L.
“I have known Elizabeth since she was a young child. She has always been such a wonderful person to have in your life and around your animals. She always tried to help any animal that she saw, even animals that seemed threatening. My husband and I had a cat named lancelot who had a bob tail because of a deformity while his mother was pregnant. A lot of people overlooked him but my husband and I did not when we went on a very long vacation, Elizabeth came over every day, called us with updates, and sent pictures. Lancelot passed away a couple of years ago, but he loved her and she loved him and she was just as heartbroken as we were. She has taken care of many other animals I have owned along with my family and our other neighbors in the neighborhood as well. She actually rushed my dog to the vet when she realized that something we had accidentally left out had been swallowed and stayed with him until she knew he was okay and that was well after we had arrived. Honestly if there's any person I would trust with your pet it would be her. She's got such a gentle soul and really can understand how an animal is feeling.”

Black Jack pet parents share their Rover experiences
Sara was amazing! She was super responsive, sent pictures of our babies and even checked on our guinea pigs even though they weren't part of the pup sitting! She was kind, asked great questions, and was all around way above and beyond our expectations. We will look forward to having her watch our babies again in the future!
