“Ugur is the best! He takes great care of our pups and provides wonderful pics and re-caps of his drop-in visits. Would definitely recommend booking him!”

“Brennan is the best! She took great care of my cats. I end up saving all the pictures of them she takes because they are so good. I will always book Brennan for my trips out of town.”
“Deanna understood the complicated needs of my senior dog! She was polite and respectful in our interactions and I will 100% work with her in the future!”

About: I have always lived in a home with animals around. My childhood home always had at least one beloved cat running around. In adulthood I have of course continued the cat person legacy, as well as being roughly 3 years into having my first dog. The latter has been such a fun adventure and now I love dogs just as much as I have always loved cats! I am currently looking to work full-time as a pet sitter. Other than Wednesdays (previous engagement) I can be available for whatever visit or walk schedule your pet needs! I do not currently offer boarding services. But for dog walks, I have plenty of extra leashes if needed! I also have a never ending supply of cat toys that mine has stopped caring about (cat people--if you know you know) which I'm more than happy to share.
“Amazing! Super helpful, kind & timely. Definitely recommend!”
“Nicki was awesome!! Great cat sitter, super easy to coordinate with.”
“Danielle was absolutely amazing! Our boys 🐶 were beyond well taken care of. We loved our daily updates and photos. We could tell our dogs were comfortable and loved while we were gone. Highly recommend and we will definitely be a returning client!”
About: I am known as the go-to pet sitter for all of my friends and family! I have worked with everything from tiny 4 week old puppies to senior pets who need assistance walking and require multiple medications. I am comfortable with giant dogs and I have experience with fearful/aggressive animals. I’m an avid hiker and love to stay active, usually with my dogs. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend! I have a very flexible schedule so I am available to walk or care for your pet at your convenience! I have a reliable car and don’t mind driving! I have a yard with a secure, 6 foot privacy fence and live in a very walkable neighborhood with three parks near my home. If your pet is more comfortable staying home I am available to take care of them there! I’m a fast learner and I’m eager to learn your pet’s routine!
“Would recommend Stephanie a million times! She’s been great to work with and is great with my elderly little dog. 10/10”
“Greeshma took great care of our baby ? She was super communicative and sent daily updates / photos of the fun they were having. It’s evident that she is an animal lover, and she cared for our cat like he was her own. We will definitely use her for future trips!!”
“Swetha is so amazing and we are able to rest easy knowing that she is the one watching our cats. We’ve booked her in the past and I will never forget how carefully she was watching my cat who was recovering from surgery and even managed to replace the cone when my cat took it off herself!! Communication with Swetha is super easy, she’s very responsive, detail-oriented, and clearly just has a great vibe because my shy cats actually love playing with her. I wouldn’t hesitate booking Swetha again in the future!”
About: I have spent time around dogs, big and small, my whole life! I am particularly well-versed in big dogs over 100 pounds as I have been taking care of two Saint Bernards for the last few years. Also, I am comfortable with all levels of training! I am currently working a part-time job in the evenings on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday, so I have plenty of time to care for your furry friends. During the week, I am free until 3pm, and I am very flexible on the weekends! Although I do not offer in-home services, I will always treat your pets and home as if it were my own! I pride myself in filled water bowls and happy animals! I will help keep you animals safe and your home clean!
“Melissa was so friendly and great at communicating.”
“Maria is amazing! She took plenty of pictures and kept detailed updates so I felt comfortable knowing my pup was in good hands. She followed all directions and was incredibly diligent during our meeting to make sure everything was clear.”
About: I’m trying to save up money for vet school, and would love to give your pets the love and attention they deserve while at it! Growing up, I was the main caretaker and trainer for our two family dogs. As a teenager, I had a monopoly on neighborhood pet sitting. Now, I don’t have any dogs or cats of my own (part of why I’m eager to dote on yours). I’ve loved meeting so many new furry friends across St. Louis :) Ive also done volunteer work handling wild animals such as hawks, squirrels, and possums! I’m currently working part time, so I have a decent amount of availability with enough notice! My work schedule can be flexible as well, so I’m happy to work something out with you if we have conflicts 👍 I’m no stranger to cleaning up pet messes. If any accidents happen, I will be sure to leave the spot squeaky clean! I’ve also lived in the neighborhood for 3 years so I know the area well. I’m excited to take your pet on a fun and safe walk, or just give them a comforting lil visit at home.
“Ben was great and my dog loved her!”
“Brooke is the absolute BEST! I was 100% at ease while away knowing she was taking care of my kitties. She is so nice, responsive, clear with communication and reliable. I adore her and hope to use her whenever I go out of town!”

Botanical Heights pet parents share their Rover experiences
Our cat LC received so much love and attention while we were away. We are grateful for Lauren's willingness to drop in and keep her company.
Sarah is simply the best in the game. Amazing at giving updates & lots of pics/videos so you know your baby is doing well. A ++++ job and my dog was smiling in the pics which confirms how much she loved Sarah
Lindsey is absolutely amazing!! I had a personal matter come up, and needed urgent and VERY last minute care for my 2 large dogs for nearly an entire month. I reached out to Lindsey in a pinch, and with nearly no notice, and she got back to me immediately! Not only was she considerate of my situation, she was so professional, thoughtful, and easy to communicate with when scheduling everything! (I had to make a MILLION changes to the schedule, and she was nothing but patient, flexible, and understanding through every change I made!) One of my dogs (I have 2 large dogs!) can be particularly reactive, and I’ve had such a hard time in the past finding someone that he will let get close to him and take care of him. When I came across Lindsey’s profile, I was so pleased to see that she has experience with challenging dogs! While I was still nervous how my reactive dog would be around her, Lindsey assured me of the steps she will take with the experience she has, to ensure the dogs feel comfortable, safe, and trusting around her. And Lindsey did not disappoint! Both of my dogs love her and seemed to warm up to her almost immediately! She always sends me the cutest updates of my pups, too, and is SO wonderful at communicating everything with me (I haven’t been home to see my dogs in almost a month, and I wouldn’t have wanted anyone other than Lindsey to be caring for my dogs during these past few weeks)! She has gone above and beyond, and I cannot recommend her enough! I trust her through and through to take good care of my dogs, and am so grateful for how much love and care she showed them while I’ve been away. If I ever need to book someone to care for my dogs again, I will ALWAYS book Lindsey when I have the chance! 🐶🐶
Stephen did great with my girl! She unfortunately spent most of the time hiding under the bed but he still made sure to check on the water bowl, litter box and give her the calming treats.
Sharon was absolutely phenomenal! We have a bit of a shy/hesitant kitty and Sharon was wonderful with accommodating her and spending time with her while we were out of the country. Sharon’s communication is top notch which gave us peace of mind. We will definitely be repeat bookers!
She always goes above and beyond to take care of our kitties—we're so grateful for her care and attention.
Maria was wonderful! Super responsive and attentive to detail! I would definitely work with her in the future!!
She is literally the best and is excellent at communication throughout watching him! Would hire her again in a heartbeat!
Lisa did great job taking care of my puppies!. She followed all the instructions and gave them extra love, daily cuddles and special care at the time of thunderstorm, just to make sure they were comfortable. I came home to calm, well taken care of dogs, her love and attention is greatly appreciated!
Laura is great! She has a lot of experience dealing with animals and was very detailed in her post-visit summary.
Would recommend Stephanie a million times! She’s been great to work with and is great with my elderly little dog. 10/10
