Doggy Day Care in Central West End, Saint Louis, MO

“I can’t say enough about how great Lauren was with our puppy. She was so kind and loving to him and he was very well cared for. She was super flexible with our schedule, which I greatly appreciate! I would give her a 10 star review if I could. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone!”

“Mariah is a God send… flexible hours, sweet as can be and not only has 1 pool for the fur babies but 3. Nice big clean yard and personal pets are friendly. I’m so happy I reached out to her!”

“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.”

About: I LOVE animals! I grew up on a farm in Arizona surrounded by dogs, chickens, cows, hamsters, and even a few ferrets and a snake! I adopted my own fur baby (an almost three year old lab, Pyrenees, Newfoundland mix🥰) a few years ago, and we are excited to be helping y’all out with your pets! I’m currently not working besides taking care of pets on Rover, so my availability is pretty open and flexible. In very few instances, I may need to request a slight changing in time frame to accommodate for my two kiddos under two (fun times! 😂 ) and dropping off/picking up my partner from his job. All things considering, life as a stay at home mom allows me to be most available for doggy day care and boardings, but if you’re fine with my sister tagging along to help with my away-from-home sittings, I can sit your house for you as well (overnights most of the time for me are a no-go, but I’m a night owl/early bird so I can come and leave early/late, and my sister is able to spend overnights as well if needed throughout most of the week. But you never know so please feel free to talk to me and we can see if we can work something out 😊). If you’re considering boarding/doggy day care, my apartments have a dog park just a short walk away from my unit, so I would be able to provide them with ample exercise, and both my kiddos and my pup LOVE and get along well with other pets. We are also conveniently located only five minutes from the airport, so you can drop them off on your way to vacation and pick them up without going too far out of your way on your way home! I have experience with most breeds, ages, and needs of dogs, and while I’m not trained in any type of CPR/first aid (nor have I ever needed to use it), I have the head knowledge. Don’t hesitate to ask any questions! Thank you for booking with me! Your pets will be well loved. 🥰 NOTICE: I NO LONGER ACCEPT PITS OR PIT MIXES TO BOARD. I HAVE HAD TOO MANY CASES WHERE A SITUATION AROSE WHERE MY DOG OR ANOTHERS’ DOG(S) HAVE BEEN PUT IN AN UNSAFE SITUATION DUE TO A PIT. AS OF NOW, I STILL ACCEPT HOUSE SITTINGS WITH PITS/PIT MIXES. THANK YOU FOR UNDERSTANDING. 🥲 As I said, this is my only source of income, so I can cater to the needs of your pet right along with my own with practically nothing to stand in the way! 😊 I treat your pet like my own (yes, they even sleep on my bed sometimes 😂), and I honestly take even more care over yours to ensure the best experience all around. This means leashing them EVERY TIME we go outside and BEFORE any doors are opened, giving them space if needed and around other dogs (not including my own if boarding/doggy day care), etc.

“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!”

“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.”

Michele P.

“Isa is amazing! She spends time sending adorable pictures and made sure our puppy was tired for a long car ride to Wisconsin! Our pup certainly had fun playing with the other dogs and in the sprinkler! As soon as he got into our car, he fell asleep. This is exactly what we wanted! We can’t wait to use Isa again!”

“Repeat booking with Madeline. Dogs were happy and calm when I picked them up. Madeline is great with fast communication and flexibility. Thank you we will book again.”

“Allison was the perfect person to take care of my shy pooch. She was calm and reassuring and he seemed very comfortable with her. She took him for a long walk, which he always enjoys. And she lives very close to the hotel I stay at. I’ll definitely use her on my next visit to St. Louis.”

About: I have had my own dogs for my entire life and now care for my childrens' dogs when they go out of town. My neighbors have relied on my to walk their dogs during the day. I am currently retired from my last position as a massage therapist and my own dog of 16 years passed away a year ago. I am home most days, and can give your pet my unconditional attention. I have a fenced yard and live alone so there will be no distractions from caring for you pup. I tend to be away from home only for a couple of hours, if that, most days.

“Tyler is a dog sitter extraordinaire! I know when I drop Bishop off he will be safe and we’ll cared for. Bishop and I both love that fact Bishop enjoys every moment with Tyler and is two dogs, Rocky and Elly.”

“Very easy to work with!”

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 🪐

“Dogs seemed calm and happy when we picked them up. Jordan was super nice, easy communication, and had a calm energy about him that the dogs responded positively too.”

Cristina S.

“Sarah is a great sitter! We initially booked her for boarding and added on day care so our puppy had a chance to get to know Sarah and her son before our trip. She is very flexible and communicative. We have our boarding scheduled soon and will continue to use Sarah in the future!”

Lucas M.

“Our pup Mattie sprints to the front door, she’s always so excited to play with Fae. Safe, responsible pet watching—what else could you ask for?”

“Julia was excellent!!! Communicated well and sent pictures!!”

About: I've had my own pets since 1991. I had a rabbit and dog in college and have learned over the decades how to best care for our friends. I've just retired from a busy career, so I know how important it is to find someone to care for your animals when you're away; even if it's just the gym or happy hour after work. I've fostered for several area rescues and know folks have a different idea of appropriate care. I only use fear free methods, because our animals need to know they can trust us. I've had young high energy dogs who need play and long walks and I've cared for my dogs in their last years when they needed additional care or special medical needs including pills, dressings, eye drops and carrying older dogs who aren't as mobile anymore. I would love to get to know your pets and help you give them the best life. I'm currently retired and searching for part time employment. I don't mind early or late night visits since our dogs don't have a 9 to 5 schedule. I do have an active social and volunteering schedule but it's flexible enough to accommodate your needs. I have cared for many dogs who need to be crated or who are door dashers and escape artists. I have a calm energy that helps put pets at ease. I'm a fan of high value treats to make the crate a special place. My personal dogs are crate trained but I know that's not for everyone.

About: With a heart full of love for animals, I treat every pet like family. Your dog won’t just get care—they’ll get a buddy too! My own friendly pup loves to play, so your dog will always have a companion. Whether it’s cuddles, playtime, or just hanging out, I make sure they feel safe, happy, and never alone. I’m especially great with puppies and senior dogs, giving them the attention, patience, and comfort they need. Oh—and if your dog speaks Spanish, no worries… ¡yo también! I work from home, so I’m always around to give your pet the attention they need—day or night. Whether it's potty breaks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’m fully present and available. Your pet will never feel alone, and you can have peace of mind knowing someone is always there. Safety is always my top priority. I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and at ease from the very beginning. I follow any routines or special instructions you provide and always create a calm, secure environment where your pet can relax, play, and be themselves.

About: Hi! I absolutely love dogs. Have a two year old medium/small sized dog who loves play dates but also doesn’t mind staying in another room if other dogs aren’t friendly! She also doesn’t bother other dogs unless they come up to her to play. I will treat your dog as if it were my own. I work part time during the week, twice a week on a random schedule for around 7 hours or less and home all night. Weekends are completely free. I live in a very nice area, can go for walks, go to the dog park, my dog loves playing with other dogs, and i have a crate.
