“Audrey was fantastic! She was able to watch our dogs on short notice, gave daily updates and took such good care of my babies, especially when looking after my dog who is spooked by fireworks on 4th of July! We appreciate her so much and fully intend to use her next time we need a sitter! Thank you, Audrey!”

“Rachel was everything we hoped for and more! She arrived on time for each visit and spent the full 30 minutes with our new little pup giving him a break during the day when we were gone. She was conscientious of changing out anything that was soiled in his kennel and kept him busy with lots of activity and play time. Rachel also went above and beyond during a visit where our older dog unexpectedly got sick...not only did she take her out, but cleaned her and her kennel up...it was SO appreciated since we weren't there to take care our girl. If I could give her more than 5 stars I would...Rachel has been amazing!!!”


“Melissa watched my 3 cats for me. She was fantastic! I got tons of pics and an update every day. When one of my cats had a gooey eye - she immediately called me to see what I wanted to do. She was very concerned and caring about the kitty and wanted to make sure she was ok and was willing to take her to the vet. (the cat is fine btw - she didn’t need to go to vet). It’s that kind of commitment and caring that makes Melissa a great sitter! I would definitely use her again.”
“McKenna was able to drop in for my puppos on a late request to save the day!! She was very quick with responses and punctual on visit. My boys were grateful for the fresh air and bathroom break as I was gone most of the day! Will continue to call on McKenna when needed! Thanks!!”

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I started driving and love to walk and interact with them. I care for the pets like they would be my own. I am very friendly and open to any type of pet and how they interact with people and adjust to their style. I’m currently in college and play soccer full time. I’m home for the summer and I can sit or walk pets at various times throughout the week. I do have a somewhat flexible schedule with work and can work around and care for any pets at different times of the week. I will keep the house clean and help pick up or do any tasks needed while I care for your pet. I also make sure that I am safely caring and looking out for the pets on walks as well to ensure the best care needed.
“Ruth was phenomenal! I was concerned about leaving my recently adopted dog while I traveled for 12 days, but he thrived under Ruth’s care. I appreciated the Rover note from every visit. I will definitely have Ruth care for Gibbs when I travel!”


About: I have a lot of experience with dog sitting and walking because of families that needed help with their canine friends while they were away for long periods of time. I have also had to give a dog shots of insulin everyday because of her diabetes so I am comfortable with medicine and needles if needed. I have also had the opportunity to walk dogs around multiple parts of St. Louis so I know the city and it’s roads very well. My availability is mostly flexible. I love dogs and want to continue to care for them. I will provide your dog with unlimited care, treat him/her as if they were my own, and love them unconditionally. I understand that dogs are a part of the family and deserve the best care.
About: Hi there! I’ve volunteered at animal shelters and have been around cats/dogs my whole life, from puppies and kittens to senior dogs and cats! I currently have a dog and a puppy of my own. I am a school speech therapist who is off work for the summer. I would love to make some new furry friends and to help ease your dog mom/dad guilt while you’re vacationing or at work. I will treat your babies as my own, whether it’s giving them snuggles while you’re away, taking your furry friends for a walk or just stopping by to say hello! I understand how hard it is to leave your fur babies. I value open communication and will send you updates with pictures while you are away or busy! If you are interested or have any questions please reach out to me. I’d love to set up a meet and greet :) I am on summer break from work so I have a lot of flexibility when it comes to my daily schedule. I am a night owl so I have availability during the night as well. I have a lot of pet experience and would love to provide long walks and visits with your pet while you’re at work or have plans!
About: Hi! I’m Arturo, a responsible, active, and dependable caregiver with a strong background in leadership and coaching. I’ve spent years working with people in high-pressure environments as a soccer coach, which has taught me the importance of patience, communication, consistency, and attention to detail — qualities that also matter when caring for pets. I genuinely enjoy being around dogs and understand that every pet has a different personality, energy level, and routine. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, structure, or just calm companionship, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’m attentive to instructions, reliable with schedules, and committed to treating every dog like family. I’m also an active person, so I’m happy to provide walks, exercise, and engagement for high-energy dogs when needed. My goal is simple: give pet owners peace of mind knowing their dog is in good hands. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate quality time and attention to the pets I care for. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, daycare, and boarding throughout the week, including weekends. As an active person, I enjoy spending time outdoors and making sure dogs get the exercise, attention, and companionship they need to feel happy and comfortable. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fenced yard and a clean, safe environment where dogs can play and relax comfortably. I always follow each owner’s instructions carefully regarding feeding, routines, medications, exercise, and behavior preferences. I understand that every dog has a different personality, and I make sure they receive patient, attentive, and reliable care while you’re away
“We could not be happier with the care our dog received. Excellent communication and easy breezy. One of our dogs has never eaten while out of town and he eats with Angela. That says everything you need to know!”


About: I combine professional training knowledge with real-world animal care experience. I graduated from the Academy of Pet Careers in March 2025 with a specialized dog trainer certification. Beyond dogs, I’ve also owned and cared for cats, fish, lizards, and guinea pigs, so I’m comfortable with a variety of animals. I truly love caring for pets and treat them with the same patience, safety, and attention I would want for my own animals. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine. I currently work part time, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate quality time with pets. I prioritize creating a calm, safe, and comfortable environment where pets can maintain their normal routine as much as possible. In a client’s home, I carefully follow feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise needs, medication instructions, and any training or behavioral guidelines provided by the owner.
“Corensia did a great job taking care of our cat Gloria and the outside birds, as well as picking up the mail and packages every day. I appreciated the great photos and could see that Gloria, who is very shy and timid, allowed Corensia to let her and run her belly! Amazing! Thank you. I would definitely use Corensia again.”

“I was so worried about my cat getting an oral medication from someone other than me as he is really scared around strangers, however, they did such an amazing job. It allowed me to enjoy my weekend without worrying about my kitty.”

“Jaclyn took such good care of my babies! Every single visit she sent me a ton of pictures and wrote these sweet little updates that made it easier to be working away from home. It’s not easy to find someone who will care for your pets the same way that you do and I feel like I’ve found that level of care with Jaclyn. She even brought her dog Hemera to play with mine and they’re best friends now. Only reason I’d pick anyone else at this point is if Jaclyn isn’t available. Highly recommend her!!”

About: I have my own 3 year old pup who I love dearly! Before my pet Milo, I cared for my family dog, who lived from 3-17 so I am comfortable with all ages of dogs! I work from home so I am able to give your pet attention around the clock! Typically I work from 8-4pm. I am available for weekend boarding as well! I am a very clean and respectful person. I do have a friendly 3 year old dog, but happy to keep them separated if needed!
About: I grew up around large breeds. At 22 years old, I started house sitting. After getting married and adopting 4 children, our large dogs that were litter mates passed away from old age. They are ready to have a dog in the house again. We work from home regularly and have plenty of time and people to spoil your pup. Our dogs were trained with a trainer that also trained police dogs. I'm happy to assist if you would like your dogs to have better manners. Typically we get up in the morning and feed the dogs, according to their regular schedule. I do school drop off and come back to the house for morning walks. Since we work from home we have plenty of time for potty breaks. We have a 1 acer property with a fence around the pool. We are also close to a trail if your dogs prefer the nature scene. We have a crib mattress for your dog to sleep on. If you require a crate, please bring one at the time of drop off.

About: I have lived my whole life with dogs and I am currently a Dog Mom of 1. I have experience with many different breeds and sizes, including a summer job at a local dog + owner fitness facility and volunteering at stray rescue in STL. My pet is also a rescue, so I have experience working with dogs who need a little extra care and comfort. My main focus is to show your pet some extra love while they are patiently waiting for you to return, and to help you as a dog parent feel at peace, knowing your dog is being well taken care of. I work a full time job, but I do have the ability to work from home when needed and a flexible lunch break. I am mostly free between 7:00-8:30 AM or 6:00-9:00 PM M-F, but I am also available during lunch hours (11:00AM-2:00PM) and weekends upon request. It is important to me that I get to know both you and your pet! I want everyone to feel safe and sound during appointments. For first-time customers: I am available for phone or video calls prior to the booking date, as well as in person meet and greets (when scheduled in advance). Afterwards, we can discuss communication preferences during visits and, if requesting regular care, what days/times you would like to book in the future.
About: I have plenty of experience taking care of dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, and fish. I have experience with younger and older animals. As well as back at home I have geriatric dog care experience taking care of my own dog Tripp. I am currently looking for a part-time job right now, so my schedule is very flexible at the moment. In the future that might change a little, but I plan to be free on weekends and some days throughout the week. At home, we have a fenced-in yard, and we like to let him out a lot in addition to a nightly walk. I can accommodate any needs that your pet may have, whether they need to be more or less active.

About: I am a soccer player at MTSU who loves all animals, especially dogs. I have two pups of my own back home and they are my best friends. I have first hand experience as a pet owner, and do well with all types of dogs. I previously did house visits for friends and neighbors. One of my dogs at home is 18 years old, and while I love him so much, I understand the difficulties of having a senior dog. I can’t wait to meet some new pets! I am currently a member of the women’s soccer team. We practice early in the morning on weekdays and are off on weekends. I have a teammate with a dog who my friends and I often walk and spend time with. When I am home, I spend everyday with my pups walking, feeding, and snuggling. I am capable of crating, feeding, and walking dogs. I make sure to lock all doors and notify clients as I arrive and depart the service. While my service is short, I like to make the most of it so the dogs can enjoy it as much as I do!
Cottleville dog parents share their Rover experiences
McKenna was able to drop in for my puppos on a late request to save the day!! She was very quick with responses and punctual on visit. My boys were grateful for the fresh air and bathroom break as I was gone most of the day! Will continue to call on McKenna when needed! Thanks!!

Cristin was amazing with our two dogs. One of our dogs doesn't socialize well with new people but Cristin was able to get her to warm up to her and went above and beyond taking care of our dogs while we were gone. Even willing to spend extra time with them during a severe storm while we were gone. Would definitely recommend her care. Thank you, Cristin!

Ruth is hands down my favorite dog sitter ever. Even my skeptical dog warms up to her and jumps on her lap for love. She sends me pics while I am away on business trips and lets me know my dogs are safe and loved. Every time I come home I can tell they are healthy and have been well taken care of . I will always call on Ruth for my doggo needs! She is a true animal lover and will always take the best care of your pets
Dawn was amazing as a sitter for my pups! She is incredibly professional, responsive and loving with my dogs. I will definitely be using her again in the future. My dogs love her and her excellent care for my babies allowed me to really unplug from any worry about being away from them. Thanks Dawn!!
