“Isa was amazing with our Vader! He had so much fun with her. I really loved her service for him and for us. She updated us with pictures, and even gave us a picture of Vader as his first doggy care picture out of town! Will definitely book with her again when we visit St. Louis again! Thank you so much Isa! We really appreciate the work you did.”

“Mariah and her boyfriend Phil were awesome, they were timely and flexible with our schedule! Theo clearly had a great time playing with their doggies, he came home a happy and tired pup! Theo will definitely be back!”

“Damica is trustworthy and excellent with my pup. Kya has come home tired and happy from daycare both times I have picked her up, which is exactly what I wanted! Damica is quick to respond and provides updated videos/photos throughout the day so I can see what Kya is up to. Will definitely rehire.”

“Jennifer was great! Ari had the best time. I could tell Ari was going to have the best time as soon as I set foot in the doorway. She had such a kind energy. Thank you so much for taking great care of my pup, Jennifer!”

“Walter and his wife have been so great with my dog! Kenai loves going over there for the day. They have made Kenai a welcome member in their home and even take him out for walks. They’re also understanding of my changing schedule when it comes to early drop offs and different pickup times. I really appreciate them!”

“Great doggy sitter. Our 2 loved staying with Veronica and Ella. She sent pics and a video while they were there. Ella and LuLu the 2 doodles had so much fun playing in the backyard in the snow. Gia enjoyed the sunshine and the snow. I would trust Veronica to take care of our pups when we are in St Louis again.”

“Sara was a pleasure to work with. Quick communication from confirming booking to drop off to pick up. Stayed in touch with Photos and text updates throughout the day. Thanks again, can’t wait to bring the pup back for daycamp.”

“Sarah was so great! She answered all of my questions I asked before booking, was super responsive and so sweet with Cooper and sent me pictures and video throughout the day so I knew he was doing good.”

About: Growing up, my parents took my to a farm camp every summer. Being surrounded by animals of all kinds (cats, dogs, horses, cows, goats, etc), ignited my love for animals at a very young age. I love to dog sit and walk dogs whenever my schedule permits. I do have a golden retriever of my own, she is very friendly and would love to go on walks with your furry friend if that is okay with you. I have loved fostering in the past. Fostering has allowed me to get to know many breeds and behaviors of dogs which has made me a proficient dog walker and pet sitter. As a nurse, safety is always my priority. I will always ensure your furry friends are safe and well taken care of. I am currently working 3 12hr shifts a week. I would love to help out whenever I am available on my days off from work! When caring for pets, I ensure to build trust in order to make sure the animals is as comfortable as possible. With this being said, I make sure to take my time during visits and pay attention to how your pet is feeling. I realize all animals are different! Please let me know if your dog or cat has any special needs, their energy level, and if there are any behavioral issues I should be aware of. I of not need to know any of these ahead of time, however, I like to know as much information about your pet as possible so I am able to accommodate them to the best of my ability.
About: I’ve been into animals my entire life. I grew up with dogs and horses. I knew I wanted to at some point work with them in a greater capacity. I started helping with rescues 15 years ago and then I started doing wild life rehabilitation. I have had over 20 rescue animals in the past 15 years that became part of my family. Cats, dogs, squirrels, etc. I love them and being able to care for them. My daughter is headed to Veterinary school next fall! I’d like to think the love of animals she has seen in me helped her come to such an amazing decision. Let me love on your fur babies like I do on my 2 doggies and kitty cats!! I am currently available at anytime! I’m flexible with your schedule and can change if needed on things. I do remote work 4 hours per day 3 days a week which offers me the flexibility to be available when they need it anytime of day or night! I am willing to do things the way that you feel is best for your individual animals. I do not believe there is just one standard for caring, it needs to be tailored to the needs of the client/animal.
About: With years of dog mom experience and fostering for local rescues, I can honestly say dogs are my first love. I have two rescued senior dogs, Pork Chop, a Jack Russell terrier and Trudy a “super sized” dachshund who are the loves of my life. They are the “golden girls” of the neighborhood and adore other dogs. They have helped many of my fosters overcome separation anxiety and are always happy to meet new pups. I treat every pet as if they were my own and understand that much like humans, they all have wildly different personalities. Their safety and well being are my greatest priorities so please share as much info as you can regarding triggers, food restrictions, resource guarding or anything else that makes them unique. ⚡️☔️ If your pet has triggers, not a problem! I’m well practiced in handling those unpredictable moments, keeping your baby safe and relaxed indoors and on walks. 💊 If your dog or cat needs meds, don’t fret! I’ve cared for animals in varying stages of health and have tons of experience in how to administer meds to even the snootiest of snoots. 🍗 Is your dog a trash eater? Fear not, so are mine! My years of being a dog mom have created a 6th sense for knowing when our fuzzy toddlers are about to grab a “street treat.” 🐱 And let’s not forget kitties, they are my favorite people too! I grew up around cats and care for a few neighbor kitties so I’m familiar with all the quirks that make them lovable. Special feeding requests and litter box cleanings are not a bother so you can feel confident your feline friend will be kept well fed and tidy. ⏰ Most of my availability is between 9am and 9 pm but please check with me as I will always do my best accommodate if you need an earlier or later walk. Boarding is case by case since I already have two dogs. A preliminary meet and greet is required to be sure everyone gets along. Also, I can only board dogs up to 25 pounds. My home is a calm, safe environment where dogs are free to lounge, play and be themselves. If your dog likes to be free or needs some crate time just let me know, I understand how important it is to follow these instructions. Changing wee wee pads is never an issue, just leave the fresh ones out and I’m at your service! As for Covid-19 safety there’s no reason to worry, I’m fully vaccinated/ boosted and always masked. Plus, I travel in my own car, avoiding public transportation so you can feel at ease when I enter your home. I’m also happy to remove my shoes, wash pet bowls and clean surfaces during feeding times :) Hope you enjoy the photo gallery of all the fur babes in my orbit 🪐
“We were on a road trip across country and we really wanted to take our daughter to the Saint Louis Zoo as we were passing through, but obviously couldn’t leave the dogs in the car while we did that. We found Kyle last minute on Rover and he was great! Communication was super good and it was easy to just drop the dogs off with him. You could tell the they were well taken care of while we were out seeing the town. I would highly recommend Kyle if you ever need a dog sitter.”


“We have been sending Ellie to daycare with Jordan since July 9th and we have had a wonderful experience! We know that she is safe and happy at Jordan’s. He takes her for walks and she enjoys them a lot! He was kind enough to give her a bath when we couldn’t manage to during a really busy week. Very flexible with timings too. We highly recommend Jordan!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs all my life from my own dog and cat to my family and friends dogs. Family and friends have asked me to feed, walk, stop by for a pee break, and sit their pets. My mom currently has a puppy who I help train and sit so I know a lot about high value treats and can help train your pups if needed. I have also dog sat for senior dogs and know how much extra love and care they may need. I work remotely full time so am available to care for your pet during the work week and or on the weekends while you’re away! In my home, your pet will be treated like family! I work remotely, so I’ll be around to give them plenty of attention, playtime, and snuggles throughout the day. I make sure pets feel comfortable and safe, whether that means cozy spots to relax, regular potty breaks, or sticking to their usual routine for feeding, walks, and play. I live near Forest Park.
About: I have had dogs and cats my whole life as well as multiple pet sitting jobs. I have cared for all types of pets of all ages. You can feel comfortable putting your pets in my experienced care! My partner snd I currently have three cats. I will treat your pet as part of the family! On the days I am available, this is my full-time job so you know my full attention is going to the care of your pet. I would be open to ongoing set schedules or one time requests.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I was 5 years old. In high school, I was the one people called to watch their pets when out of town. At 18, I got my first non family dog and self trained her for the AKC good citizen test. At that point I became the friend everyone called to help train their dogs. I have fostered bottle babies all the way to senior animals with complex medical needs. I also have experience working with reactive and fearful dogs. I am also experienced in dispensing medication. My current dog has a spinal condition and gets medication twice daily. My soul dog was in palliative care for the last five months of her life and I learned a lot about basic canine first aid. My current dog has traveled with me extensively. He’s been to 13 states and roadtrips with me through Mexico. I think there is a care plan for every animal. I look forward to treating your pet like they are part of the family. I work full time from home, but have a very flexible daytime schedule. I am able to take breaks as often as needed with no issue. I currently walk my dog at 5am and 10pm to avoid daytime heat and give him bathroom breaks every 2-4 hours. I learned a long time ago that routine is best for most pets. My dog does for two 45 minute walks a day, and meals twice a day. When hosting another pup, your pups schedule will be continued. Even if it’s different from my dogs. They will be fed separately and created separately. If your dog is less social I have plenty of space to keep the pups separate, if needed. When dog sitting in your home, my dog will head to do more board and train lessons and my routine will shift to match what your dog is used to.
About: I’ve grown up with a variety of pets, and love learning their personalities. More than comfortable with wide ranges of ages and can provide medication, activities, and lots of love! I look forward to meeting your furry friend! I can care for pets after the hours of 5pm on weekdays and anytime on the weekends. I am flexible, outside of weekday working hours 8am-5pm. I feed/water, pet/cuddle, clean up after, bathe/groom, walk/play with my pet on a daily basis, depending on the service, I do the same for my clients.
“Jacki was so great! Roscoe immediately felt at home and she sent update photos to keep me in the loop. Fae, her dog, was so sweet and was immediately Roscoe's buddy. Will definitely use her again!”
