About: Hi! I'm a lifelong dog lover and owner living in Maplewood, MO, with my friendly 5 yr old Aussie, Porter. While I'm newer to pet sitting on Rover, I've cared for dogs my whole life and have plenty of experience watching the pups of friends and family. Whether it's walks, playtime, or cuddles, in here to ensure your furry friend feels happy and cared for while you're away! I'm available on the weekends and work from home Mondays and Fridays, giving your pup plenty of attention, potty breaks and daily walks. I'm open to Tues-Thurs care as well, but the pup would have to be okay in a crate or out for 8 hours while I'm at work for the day. I have a fenced in yard for the pup to play, potty and get exercise in. I have a 5 year old aussie who is super friendly and would love the company of another dog! While I'll be home most of the time with your pup, when I step out of the house I'm happy to kennel them or leave them out, whatever makes you and the pup feel the most comfortable!

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats ever since I was in grade school. Whether it was my family's, friend's or random people on the street, I am always saying hi to animals! I am familiar and comfortable with all sizes, age, and all breeds of dogs. I have dog sat for a wide variety of dogs including: chihuahuas, wheaten terriers, labs, etc. I love going on walks outside and would love to add a dog by my side! I love playing, cuddling, and giving your dog a safe and fun environment. I currently work in healthcare and have early hours. I am usually off work around 2:30 on mon&tues, off around 3:30 on wed, and off around 12:30 pm on thurs-fri. My job is very flexible and my hours depend on surgery needs, so some week days I am off work completely. I am generally free on the weekends as well. I am very familiar with dog crates, leashes & collars. I love taking dogs on walks, playing with them inside/outside, making sure they have fresh water & food, and of course giving them treats!

“Alex was fantastic with my dog, Nate! Nate can be somewhat unruly with other dogs. Alex was keen on listening to how Nate's been trained and (IMHO) had the calm demeanor that people and dogs like Nate want in a dog walker. He also communicated well and followed through on everything he signed up for. Thank you, Alex!”


“We can travel with less stress knowing that Autumn is checking in on our cats. She handles their special needs and is attentive to their different personalities. Our cats are a handful, but Autumn has it under control.”


“Tamara has been terrific with our rottie puppy, Ruby. She’s super reliable and takes gorgeous pics of our pup. We are lucky to have her help!”



“I booked Allison for a dog walking and visit with my pup Tucker. She was very quick to respond and updated me throughout her visit. Tucker was happy to have a friend and would recommend Allison!”


“Amy went above and beyond for my dog. She kept me well informed and brought toys and treats for my dog to play with. She was flexible with my schedule. Thanks, Amy!!”


“Jason took great care of Phat and Pia. I appreciate his calming nature for my high maintenance cats, being flexible with their needy behavior. Jason is nice, friendly and performed his job perfectly, allowing me not to worry at all about my rugrats at home. I would definitely recommend, and hope to take advantage of his services again soon.”
