“Mae is the bomb! I think my animals really like them, and I definitely appreciate their support. They have been caring for my babies for going on 3 weeks, 4 days a week and it’s a godsend for my busy schedule. They are super bubbly and sweet, keep on top of communication, and follow instructions to a T. My neighbors see them all the time and always tell me how much they like Mae and how friendly they are. Plus, they take really good pictures. Highly recommend.”

“Phoebe is great with my pet. This was my second time with her and she does a great job taking care of my pet and communicates well. I will rebook her when needed!”

“Jacqueline was great with Momo! She was quick to respond to my messages over the holidays and attentive when following Momo’s specific meal routine.”

About: I volunteer at the APA animal shelter where I walk and play with all types of dogs. I have also taken care of a wide variety of animals including lizards, fish, kittens (2 weeks old), puppies, and turtles! I’m currently working part-time at a restaurant so I have plenty of time to spend time with your animals and make sure they are well taken care of! I give all pets love and affection with different pets needing different things! For dogs I love to take them for walks and give them lots of belly scratches, and for cats I love to play with them and if they like, pet them!
“Abby was a great sitter who took excellent care of my pet for my time away. She was communicative and eager to hear how best to care for my cat. I can't wait to book her services again!”

“Stephen is a gem! He is thorough, flexible and reliable, and I could tell my cat loved his visits. It was such a relief to know he was looking after her and we will definitely be calling upon him again!”

About: I have loved and cared for dogs my entire life. I have raised my own dogs and have helped friends, neighbors, and family with theirs for years. I am comfortable with all ages, sizes, and personalities, from energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I am dependable, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. Whether it is walks, feeding, playtime, medication, or simply keeping them company, I treat every dog as if they were my own. You can expect consistent communication while you are away. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I am currently fully available and have a very flexible schedule. Pet care easily fits into my daily routine, and I can accommodate weekdays, weekends, overnights, and extended stays. Your dog will receive consistent attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. I am especially available for in home sitting, which allows pets to stay comfortable in their own environment. I have a secure, fenced patio (with designated turf potty areas, and one friendly, well socialized dog. I am happy to follow your dog’s normal routine, including crating if needed, feeding schedules, medication, and exercise preferences. While I can host in my home, I prefer sitting in your home so your dog can remain in a familiar, stress free setting. I am respectful of your space, attentive to detail, and focused on keeping your pet safe, calm, and well cared for at all times.

“I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Kyani. She took amazing care of our fur babies and it shows, they were always so excited to see her. She is a great communicator and sent us daily updates and pictures of our babies. She also took such great care of our home, even bringing packages in and ensuring our robovaccum doesn’t her stuck. I would absolutely hire her again and you should too!”

“Megan is amazing! She was very accommodating and flexible! Fast response time and my dog Ruby loves her! I would highly recommend Megan and we will definately be having her over again!”


About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since 2016. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed, snuggle, love on and bathe their pets..(when needed from grass stains to muddy walks) after losing my soul dog in 2020 I made it a personal mission to help others give their dogs, great love, affection, and care. I have administered oral medications for all sizes of dogs due to allergies, diet, skin, irritation, tummy issues and infections. Recently, I fostered a pitbull for a month that was very skittish. In that month, she learned to sit, stay, her name, and most importantly that she is loved. I am making it my personal mission to help all dogs feel loved and all owners to feel like their pups are in good hands. You can expect pictures and or videos from me to help ensure that you have picked someone who cares as much as you do for your pet. I am currently working full-time, but depending on the area I am available for early morning walks on weekdays (before 7am) and after work walks/check-in. (After 5:30pm) my schedule on the weekends varies, but I’m open to starting a schedule with the right dog! One of my main goals is to continue your dogs schedule as close to yours as possible. I will send updates, pictures, videos throughout my time with your dog.
About: Since I was a little girl, I’ve known I was meant to work with animals. It’s more than a passion—it’s my purpose. Pets have always brought me peace, joy, and fulfillment, whether they were mine or someone else’s. Over the years, I’ve raised everything from Great Danes to Pit-Husky mixes. I currently care for my special-needs English Mastiff, Kayser, and have supported senior and rescue dogs—each requiring patience, trust, and personalized care. Motivated by my commitment to animal well-being, I returned to school to pursue my dog training certification. I also hold certifications in animal welfare, pet CPR, and first aid. My approach is rooted in positive reinforcement and a strong belief in creating an informed, compassionate pet guardian community. My mission is to be a bridge between animals and their guardians—prioritizing not just obedience, but behavioral health, emotional enrichment, and the deeper bond that comes from truly understanding and nurturing the whole animal. Pet care is a part of my everyday routine, so I’ve learned to build my schedule around it. I’m usually up early to handle morning feedings, walks, and check-ins, which leaves me available mid-morning through early afternoon for appointments, training sessions, or visits. I also keep some flexibility in the evenings and weekends for clients who need extra support or who have specific routines for their pets. Because animals are part of my daily life, fitting in care—whether mine or someone else’s—comes naturally. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect and attention I’d want in my own. I stick closely to the routines the pet is familiar with—whether that’s feeding times, walk schedules, medication, or playtime—because consistency helps them feel secure. I take my time to build trust with each animal, using gentle handling and positive reinforcement. I also pay close attention to their behavior and energy, so I can catch any signs of stress or discomfort early. My goal is always to keep pets calm, comfortable, and happy in their own environment while giving families peace of mind knowing their pets are in caring, capable hands.
About: I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet with someone new, and I don’t take that lightly. I provide regular updates, follow your pet’s routine closely, and make sure they feel safe, exercised, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. I’ve had hands-on experience caring for animals most of my life, including feeding, walking, bathing, and administering medication. I grew up caring for our family dog and have also worked with puppies, so I’m comfortable with pets of all ages, sizes, and energy levels. I’ve always been the go-to sitter for friends, family, and neighbors, caring for both dogs and other pets. My goal is to make the experience as stress-free as possible for you and as comfortable and consistent as possible for your pet. I’d love to meet you and your babies soon! I am currently looking to do Rover full-time, so I have a very flexible schedule for new clients and can give your pet plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m also happy to accommodate last-minute requests whenever possible. I’m known for sending lots of updates and being very attentive, even in unexpected situations. I am aware that every pet is different and may have unique needs for me to attend to. Having two of my own dogs at home, I understand how to maintain a safe and happy environment for your pets. I’m very attentive to pet safety, including diet, environment, and any specific needs your pet may have.

“Kartik regularly provides our k9's with first class care at a very reasonable cost. Not only is he professional and well trusted but he is also pleasant and enjoyable to communicate with. We have every intention of continuing our ongoing Rover relationship with Kartik for the foreseeable future.”

About: I have a 5 year old 100lb staffordshire terrier named Kaido that I raised and trained since he was 6 weeks old. I crate trained, house trained, recall trained, socialized, and lead trained him myself. I have also Kaido to help work with other dogs that are not well socialized or have anxiety issues. I am currently working two part time jobs as a research coordinator so I am typically able to be flexible with whatever schedule is requested. While my apartment does not have a fenced yard, I do have a large dog crate if needed and have knowledge of many dog parks and trails in the St Louis area.
“Rebekah did an amazing job with our cats, we're so glad we found her! She connected with them so fast, it was impressive, specially with my shy cat, she won them both over and manage to gain their trust since day one, even our shy cat came out of his hiding spot to get treats which is sooooo rare with new people, the updates were amazing, she left everything so nice and clean, she took such good care of my babies, makes being away way easier. We appreciate you Rebekah! Will definitely recommend.”

“Brooke always does a fabulous job taking care of our sweet boy when we are gone. Great communication, feedback, and awesome photos! She is the only cat sitter we will use! Gives us great peace of mind to know out cat and home is being cared for. Thanks Brooke!”

About: My family used to care for 4 English springer spaniels my entire childhood. That care include welcoming two adorable liters of puppies into the world!!

College Hill pet parents share their Rover experiences
Phoebe was a wonderful sitter for my two cats. Each Rover card had updates on how they were acting and multiple pictures of each. One of my cats had an FIV flare-up and she was great about keeping me updated on that. This was my first time booking with Phoebe, but I hope to be a repeat customer!

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!

Niah was a great sitter! She was kind and enthusiastic at the our meet and greet. I knew my cats would be taken great care of and felt very comfortable leaving them in her care. Also had some last minute travel changes and was easy to contact and flexible which was appreciated. Would work again with Niah!
