“Kristin was wonderful with our 4 fur babies in our home! We got regular updates and could tell from photos and messages she went above and beyond giving them lots of TLC. We’d love to have her back next time we travel!”

“Gabrielle was just the right amount of communicative! She took great care of our dog while we were away and the house looked great. Would definitely book again.”

“Alex did a wonderful job in working with Ron, our rescue that we took home 6 months ago. Ron is 7 with a few idiosyncrasies from his previous life but we love him and Alex bonded with him quickly and successfully.”

About: **I currently have two dogs of my own, but they stay at my partner's home if I am boarding your dog!** Hi! I’m a PhD student who has called St. Louis home for the past five years, and I’m currently in the final stages of writing my dissertation. The good news for your pets? I work from home, so I have plenty of time for walks, belly rubs, playtime, and keeping your furry friends company while you’re away! I am located in The Grove with access to a dog park at my apartment complex as well as walking distance to both Forest Park & Tower Grove Park for pups that enjoy long walks. One of my dogs loves people and dislikes other dogs, while the other one enjoys dogs and is wary of people so I have experience with a variety of dog personalities and their differing needs. Whether your pet is a professional cuddler, an energetic adventurer, or simply here for the treats, I’d love to spoil them ◡̈ Since I work from home while finishing my PhD dissertation, pet care fits pretty naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to take plenty of breaks throughout the day for walks, playtime, and potty breaks. 🐾 My schedule is much more “read a paper, take a dog for a walk, write a paragraph, give belly rubs” than a traditional 9-to-5. I can easily adapt to the schedule of your pup! I’m happy to build pet care into my day and give your pets plenty of attention rather than leaving them alone for long stretches. Having a furry coworker around is honestly a pretty great dissertation-writing perk! 😂 Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or theirs, I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and any special instructions so they can feel comfortable and relaxed. I always keep a close eye on pets during walks and playtime. Since I work from home, I’m able to provide plenty of supervision and companionship throughout the day. I’ll treat your home with the same care and respect I’d want for my own, and I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you can see what your furry family member is up to. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing your pet is safe & happy!

“I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! Ashley went above and beyond for Monkey and Winston, sending the sweetest pictures and keeping me updated the whole time. It’s such a relief knowing they were so well cared for. I’ll definitely be rebooking her next time I’m away!”

Mandi V.

“I was super hesitant to have a sitter in house for my pup because I was scared of my house being a wreck when I came back. Thankfully, this fear did not come true with Mary as a sitter. They were clean and kept my apartment how I left it… if not better. They sent me quite a few update pictures of my pup, and just regular updates in general. They also made sure my pup was okay with plenty of water in the time it was going to take me to get home after they left. Your pup will be in good hands with Mary!”

Sandi M.

“Marsha took amazing care of my dog for an entire week, and I couldn’t be happier with her service. From the moment she arrived at my home, I felt completely comfortable knowing my pup was in good hands. Marsha provided frequent updates and pictures, which I truly appreciated—it allowed me to enjoy my trip without worrying. It’s clear that Marsha genuinely loves animals and treats them as if they were her own. I returned to find my dog happy, healthy, and well-loved. I’ll definitely be reaching out to Marsha again in the future. Thank you, Marsha, for doing such an incredible job!”

Ruby T.

“Evelyn was very communicative and took very good care of our girl. Our senior dog has some quirks and special requests, and Evelyn had no issues, making our time away stress free.”

Jena A.

“This was our second time having KB housesit and she was once again amazing. She took amazing care of our dog and our house. Our pup got a few adventures, attentive care, and was happy and healthy when we got home. Our house was also spotless. She was communicative and followed all of our instructions to a t. We were able to relax and enjoy our trip knowing she was in good hands.”

Claire R.

“This was Alex’s second time watching our two dogs. He kept us updated on our trip with lots of pictures! Our puppies were happy and tired when we got home- I can tell Alex really takes good care of them when we are gone. And our house was spotless when we got back. We are already hoping to use Alex for our next trip.”

Sarah L.

“Erin was wonderful with our two pups, who tend to struggle when we leave, but adjusted to her with ease. She regularly communicated and really enjoyed our dogs. She really centered her focus and care on our dogs and their needs which gave us the reassurance we needed to enjoy our trip. She took great care of our home too. We will absolutely book her again.”

Paz G.

“Zachary was very professional and we felt confident leaving our little dog in his care. We highly recommend Zach and we will certainly use his services again.”

Mike P.

“Jen was our first over night sitter with Rover so I of course was nervous about leaving our pooch Mercury with someone new. We had a meet and greet a few weeks prior to our scheduled date and right away I felt at ease with her. Over the weekend she sent updates and pictures. She even took him for additional walks which definitely made his weekend! We returned home to a very happy pup! Would definitely use her again and highly recommend her to others.”

Sherry T.

“Becky was amazing with my two pups, making sure they got all the love and exercise needed while I was gone. She took great care of my house and I can’t wait to have her back!”

Sue S.

“Latasha was wonderful! All the cats loved her as soon as they met her. She has a natural talent when it comes to getting to know your pets. She sent pictures of our cats to us everyday on vacation and was super responsive on her phone when we wanted to see our pets. It was such a relief knowing that she was here with them. One of the things I appreciated the most was that when we got here it was as clean as when we left it. She took all the notes and she performed the tasks laid out to her exactly like we did with the cats. She also helped keep them on their schedule by following their feeding times. Latasha played with them which is honestly more than I do sometimes. They may have gotten a little spoiled with all the attention lol. Each day she would send images but she'd also send a little story or observation of the cat. That was nice because it helped us to know that they were acting in their usual ways and not sad that we were gone and missed us. I would 1000% book Latasha again. If you've never had a cat sitter (we hadn't) she will answer all your questions and really set your nerves at ease.”

“Caitlin did a great job caring for Scout! This was the longest time we left her alone and she started to get anxious so Caitlin stayed with her basically all day and night so she wouldn’t be alone. Scout was happy and our was clean on our return.”

Lindsay C.

“Brenda was wonderful. She went out of her way to be communicative and helpful. She took excellent care of both our kitty and our house while we were away!”

Maisy E.

“Alexandra was great! We got daily pictures and updates while we were away and she stayed with our dog and cat. She took great care of our house while staying here as well! We would definitely book her again in the future!”

Kelsey C.

“Tess was amazingly helpful with my dog, Boston!! He is a big dog with a lot of energy and I always worry that he might be a lot to handle for anyone coming over, and this was my first experience using Rover. Everything went seamlessly and I couldn’t recommend Tess enough!!”

Abbey H.

“We had our best house sitting experience ever with Kaity—I can’t say enough good things about her!! We have older animals with medical needs (including daily injections) and Kaity put our mind at ease with the amount of care and attention she gave our pets. Over the nearly two weeks we were out of town, Kaity sent us cute pictures and really got to know the (many) quirks of our animal crew. On top of the wonderful treatment our cats and dog recieved, Kaity also went above and beyond in caring for our home and garden. We came home to a neat and tidy house and thriving plants, despite a miserable heat wave while we were gone. Long story short: best house sitter. We feel lucky to have found Kaity!!”
