Max is always happy to see Kiffin and she is very easy to communicate with about what you want for your dog. Max needs to be urged along and not sniff every 2 seconds. Kiffin makes sure he gets some decent exercise!

This was my first time using Rover and Alycia was great with my pup. She responded quickly every time I reached out before and after booking and sent me updates and pictures while I was gone. I knew my pup was in very good hands which allowed me to enjoy my trip. I would 100% recommend Alycia and will be using her again for my next trip.

Jessica has been a wonderful help to us! Our dog is very anxious around new people, and she was so patient when his nerves were showing. You can really tell she adores animals, and we feel confident our guy is safe with her. Jessica was available on short notice, met us beforehand despite a quick turnaround, and has been flexible as our needs change. Highly recommend her!

About: I’ve taken care of animals ever since I can remember. I grew up with two 75 pound German shepherds and two indoor cats one being deaf and partially blind. I am a part time nanny with two families who both have animals whom I love. So I am currently looking for more ways to expand my love towards animals! I currently am not able to board pets due to my living situation, but I have worked in other peoples homes and farm yards since I was around 14 years old!

Mike is fantastic, he communicates and sends updates with pictures every time. We have a large (85lbs) German Shepard that is reactive towards other dogs and Mike is always very careful and gives him lots of attention - our pup loves him! He also takes care of our cats and feed them 2x a day. 10 out of 10 would recommend!

About: I have been pet sitting for the past 10 years in St. Louis, MO with a variety of dogs, cats, lizards, snakes, fish, and more! I love animals with my whole heart and would be more than happy to show them the love I know they’re deserving of! I also worked at a pet store called Treats Unleashed and a cat cafe called Whisker Station in St. Louis, MO where I was trained on behavioral pets and all types of pet supervision. I’m new to Rover but am not new at all to pet sitting! -I also offer plant watering and any other around the house tasks you may need while gone. -Back at home in St. Louis I have an american shorthair cat named Rue and two dogs; a pitbull named Spud and a black lab named Winnie. The thing i’ve missed most about moving away from home is simply being able to hang out with animals. I would love the opportunity to be able to care for you pets like I care for my own. Every animal deserves love, kindness, and lots of pets! I am a full time student at Transylvania University who is able to do check in visits or staying the night with your fur baby’s! My schedule isn’t too packed, just a few classes during the day, so your pets will get all the attention the rest of the day! I am willing to stay at the clients house to ensure comfortability for the pets. I have had four dogs, each with very different needs and differing aggression levels so I am able to handle all types of behavior.

About: Hello, I'm Angela and I have been a dog and animal lover my whole life. I have watched dogs for family and neighbors for many years. My background is in psychology and I've definitely used that knowledge in understanding my own dogs and those I take care of. I'm currently undergoing a career change, so I have plenty of time on both weekdays and weekends to watch and play with your furry family members. I try to keep my availability as up-to-date as possible within the limited settings Rover has. I am adaptable to any routine that your pet is used to, such as feeding times and walks. I am familiar with rescues and the variability in their behavior and comfort with new people.

About: I love and treat my dogs like family, and will do the same for yours! I am lucky enough to have grown up surrounded by dogs. Going from having a playful and energized dog as a youth, to then having a calm and lighthearted dog in my late teens, there was no shortage of that unmeasurable love from dogs in our home. I have a considerable amount of experience dog walking and dog-sitting, whether it be 1 pup or 3 pups at a time - there will never be a shortage of love + attention from me when it comes to your dog(s)! Having 2 large dogs of my own, I understand the need for finding someone you can wholeheartedly trust to care for your fur baby (or babies). I am comfortable around dogs of all shapes and sizes! Both of my dogs have anxious tendencies, and one in particular can be very reactive and nervous, but through trust, patience, and love, I have been able to develop a loving and nurturing bond with them both, and have no doubt I can do the same with yours! I hope to meet your dog(s) soon! 🫶🏼🐶🐕 I can provide daily care for your dog(s) or cat(s) - whatever their needs may be! My schedule is very flexible and can easily be worked out to whatever your needs may be! I trust and understand the importance of keeping people’s homes their safe spaces for their pet(s)! I will follow any and all guidelines or expectations you have for your home whenever I am there to care for your furry friends! I always treat other’s homes like my own - with love and respect!

Candace has been great to work with! She's very communicative, reliable, consistent, timely. Not to mention, she obviously cares very much about my Harvey and takes great care of him! She goes the extra mile to play with him and pet him, depending on his mood, and always cleans up if he's had an accident in the house before she arrives. Candace also takes very cute pictures of Harvey on their walks, which I always appreciate.

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have always helped my parents take care of them! I now have a black lab of my own :) I’m available full time for walks, drop ins, boarding, house sitting, and doggy daycare! Please reach out as I’m ready to help take care of your pets 😊 I can provide any service except dog training! We have a fenced in back yard and black lab that gets along well with other dogs. Your pet must be potty trained, vaccinated, and neutered/spayed. I do accept more than 1 dog at a time so your dog must get along well with other dogs. I typically don’t have more than 2-3 dogs at a time.

About: If I could rescue all the animals and take them home, I would! I'm all about tail wags, butt wiggles, kisses, and snuggles. LOTS of snuggles! I'm available daily for dog walks or check-ins, including holidays, and I'm happy to work with your schedule. I have experience in administering insulin and other types of medical needs that are vet-approved by you. Every pet is different, so I work with what's best for them. I make sure to keep things familiar and as stress-free as possible. Keeping to their regular routine is especially important. They will miss their hoomans, but I promise to spoil them rotten while you're away!

Fiona was amazing with our dog. She was able to work on short notice, and was flexible. She showed up on time, and our dog was in great hands. She also hung out with him, and sat on the front porch with him - which was a nice touch showing that she cared deeply about animals.

Capable, reliable, and friendly to people and pets. It was easy to communicate with him and coordinate the care of my 4 month old Golden Retriever puppy. It's obvious that he has experience and enjoys dogs. If he can care for my energetic, bouncing puppy then I know he will take excellent care of your older pets. I plan to keep his name on my rebook list. Thank you for helping me out.
