“Great service! Brad is an excellent communicator, and took great care of our dog and home. He kept me up to date and was always fast to reply. Our house was spotless when we returned and he was very tidy (which was also important to us).”
About: I have a wealth of experience caring for a variety of pets, ensuring their well-being, happiness, and tailored needs are met with the utmost attention and love. I’ve cared for dogs with separation anxiety and have a senior dog. I work from home and love to break up the day walking and playing with pets. They bring an abundance of joy to my day and keep me active. I have a spacious home near ample trails. I’m on time and respectful of dog’s boundaries when entering their home. Love caring for your furry family members 💕
About: I have taken care of dogs of all kinds since age 5. My friend's neighbors and family have all trusted me to care for their animals. Including feeding, bathing, & walking. Rover is my fulltime job, I am available Monday through Friday daytime 11:00am-4:00pm & some Sundays in the areas of Ste Genevieve, Perryville, Festus, Bloomsdale,and Farmington. I am open to do day visits and dog walks. Please let me know the Sunday before for the week what you need! This leaves plenty of time for puppy loving! ❤️ I currently have a very gentle loving puppy who loves to play indoors & outdoors. So in my home your dog will have some company 😀 I do not have a fenced in yard which is a challenge so we go on walks in the neighborhood & have a nearby park we enjoy going to so no worries! We have lots of fun and exercise! We play games outside and inside.
About: I have such a caring heart for dogs that i am in the process of making it my career!! I love all animals but dogs are absolutely no exception! When I was younger I wanted to be a dog mom of 6 huskies! I am more than capable of taking care of your furry family. I am currently searching for a part-time job in animal care that way I have time to complete my career diploma that certifies me as a veterinary assistant! On my schedule I currently have all the time in the world to take care of your fur babies! However, when I do get a job. I prefer to work mornings or mid-shifts which is perfect for feeding your puppies twice a day and staying with them overnight if needed! Caring for pets in my clients home means taking them for walks or playing with them outside. Making sure their area is clean and their toys are cleaned up before I leave, and picking up after them when they do their business outside! Growing up with animals, I am confident in my ability to stop a dog fight or keep them from happening at all. Making sure that if needed, dogs are separated when feeding and that the home stays as safe a hoomanly possible!
“So Diane is absolutely the best dog sitter we have ever had. Our elderly dog (Puddles) ended up having some medical issues while Diane was taking care of her, and Diane did an outstanding job taking care of our Puddles during this time. Puddles is doing fine and we truly appreciate Diane keeping Puddles. We highly recommend Diane taking care of your pets. She is someone you can trust! Thanks again.”
“Barclay was most attentive & communicative. The kids seemed to have loved him & vice versa.He texted regularly which made us comfortable with their well being.”
“This was our first time having Catelyn stay with our fur babies while we were out of town. She absolutely went above and beyond, she ensured they had walks at least once a day cuddled with them at night and sent multiple pictures and updates throughout the day. She is responsive, flexible and so enjoyable to work with. She was also sweet enough to wash her bedding and towels and the house was spotless when we got home! We will absolutely request Catelyn again!”
“I went out of town for the weekend and was SO thankful that Gaby was free. She didn’t skip a beat with my three dogs and even checked up on my chickens! My house was exactly as I had left it, and she was incredibly respectful of our home and our animals. It can be difficult leaving your pets with someone new, but I wasn’t worried at all leaving them with Gaby!”
About: Hello, my name is Tyler and I have loved being around animals ever since I was a little kid. My father owns a an all natural pet food/grooming business in St. Louis that I would always get to help and still work there sometimes.

About: Hi there! My name’s Jordan, and animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I currently share my home (and couch!) with 2 energetic dogs and 3 hilarious, personality filled cats. They’re not just pets to me, they’re family. Growing up with animals taught me the importance of patience, playtime, and knowing when a belly rub or a quiet cuddle is exactly what they need. Whether your pet is high-energy and loves fetch or a shy cuddle bug who just wants some company, I take the time to understand their unique personality and needs. I know how nerve wracking it can be to leave your pets in someone else’s care, so I do everything I can to make the experience stress free for both you and them. I treat every animal I care for like one of my own, because I know how much love they bring into our lives. Let’s make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and happy while you’re away! I'm fortunate enough to work from home so i'm always available and easy to contact. I will be 110% devoted to your animals and I will make my schedule fit around your needs. I do not offer boarding because i'm currently living on the Warren Airforce Base BUT, I can assure you that your home, dogs, and belongings will be protected and taken care of.
“Dannie was amazing. This was my 1st time using Rover or having a sitter in my home. Dannie kept me updated throughout the day as well as sent lots of pictures. It was reassuring knowing that I didn't have to completely disrupt my fur baby's daily routines while I was away. Will definitely be using Dannie again.”
“Katie did a great job with our two puppies. Angel and Buddy were taken care of expertly. Great communication allowed us to have peace of mind while out of town, knowing our dogs were doing well.”
“Lily was super awesome and would highly recommend. She came to meet my 2 pups before I left for vacation and updated me with pictures while I was gone. Also brought them some extra toys she had and some treats as well as cleaned up some extra messes the dogs had made. Will definitely book her to watch the pups again.”
“Jennifer is the most attentive sitter I have ever had! Not only towards my dogs, but to me as well! She spoiled my pups the entire time we were gone! My house was spotless and she even washed the bedding! I highly recommend Jennifer and I have finally found a sitter that I will continue to use forever!”
About: I come with a lifetime of experience caring for my own pets, great customer service experience and a trustworthy and hard working care provider who will make sure your pets are cared for, loved, fed, and happy as well as cared extras like bringing in the Mail, watering plants or other tasks that may be needed while you are away. You are in good hands. I’m a college student and I run my own business as well as work a part time job. I will fit your pets in around my schedule/commitments and routine which may look different daily. I am willing to consider requests but my rates are not set for 24 hours of continuous coverage. Please message me your expectations initially and we can find out if we are a good fit. It is also important for you to know that I share pet sitting gigs with my sister Nina so I can help provide a more continuous service while I am at work and I will occasionally have a friend and or niece/nephew with me for drop ins. I will care for your pet in whatever way you need me to. As someone who had a very lovable Lab/Shepard mix who recently passed away, I understand the needs of a pet are with each individual pet and owner. I am happy to make sure your little buddies are protected and loved like I did my own. Everything will be done in the comfort of your home to assure your pet feels safe in their own environment.

KLee G.
“I can’t recommend K'lee highly enough as a dog walker and sitter! She cared for my three dogs—including a senior pup with special needs—and has gone above and beyond every time. It’s not easy finding someone who’s comfortable managing multiple dogs with different energy levels and care requirements, but she handles it all with ease, patience, and genuine affection. From their very first interaction, I could tell K'lee truly loves animals and takes their responsibility seriously. She is punctual, attentive, and kept me updated with regular messages and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Most importantly, my dogs absolutely adore her. Whether it’s daily walks, overnight sitting, or administering meds for my senior dog, K'lee treats each of them like their own—with kindness, consistency, and care. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, communicative, and experienced—especially with multi-dog households or senior dogs—I wholeheartedly recommend K'lee.”
