Chico, my elderly Chihuahua, went to doggie daycare with Amy in Columbia for a couple of hours while I met friends for lunch. Amy has such a wonderful way with animals; you can tell she really loves watching them. She took lots of photos, have Chico lots of attention and even had a pet guestbook for him to sign. Such a cute idea. If you ever need a pet sitter, I highly recommend Amy.

About: I have over 20 years of experience caring for pets, especially dogs. Growing up, I was surrounded by many different breeds and personalities, which helped me develop a deep understanding of their needs and behavior. One of the most meaningful experiences I had was caring for my senior dog, who lived to be 13 years old. In his later years, he developed arthritis and cataracts, and I was closely involved in managing his daily care, providing him with comfort, and making sure he stayed as active and happy as possible despite his health challenges. Currently, I have a 3-year-old Shih Tzu who keeps me on my toes! She’s full of energy, and I enjoy taking care of her grooming, exercise, and overall well-being. With my background, I’m comfortable handling pets of all ages — from playful puppies to senior dogs requiring extra patience and support. I truly believe pets are part of the family, and I always strive to provide them with love, attention and proper care. Hi! I’m Jenay, a full-time pet care provider with a big heart for animals of all kinds. Whether it’s a playful puppy, a senior dog needing extra TLC, who just needs some quiet company, I’m here to offer patient, loving, and dependable care. As someone who’s available full-time, I have the flexibility to meet your pet’s needs — whether it’s daily walks, overnight stays, or last-minute visits. Your pets will get my full attention and care, just like they’re part of my own family. I’ve cared for pets of all sizes, breeds, and personalities, and I truly enjoy getting to know each animal’s unique quirks and routines. I believe in clear communication with pet parents, sending regular updates and photos so you always know how your furry friend is doing. My home is pet-friendly, clean, and safe, and I’m also comfortable following detailed instructions if I’m caring for your pet in your own space. You can count on me to be on time, respectful of your home, and fully engaged with your pet’s wellbeing. Let’s set up a meet and greet! I’d love to learn more about your pet and how I can help. Whether your dog needs a cozy place to relax, a secure yard to play in, or extra attention for special needs, you can count on me to provide a safe, loving environment. I’ll also keep you updated so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet you and your pup!

About: Hi there! I have been pet sitting off and on for over 10 years. I love every dog and strive to give them the best time possible. Enrichment is my specialty, as I love to help a dog's brain work. I am the owner of Your Pet Life Coach, and I help teach people about how enrichment activities can be fun for your pup and also help with behavior issues. I am a self-taught dog trainer and have trained a few dogs, even one for commericals and photo shoots. My ideal day would be chilling with the pup, allowing them to tell me what they would like to do: cuddle, play ball, train. I believe I read every dog very well. I have a certificate in Animal Reiki, Crystal Healing, and Massage, along with certification in pet first aid and CPR. I have experience with both geriatric seniors and puppies, helping old dogs get up and move around, and training puppies to potty train and perform basic obedience. I am available every evening during the week, for check ins, walking and other fun activities. I am almost always available the entire day on Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday. I work a full time job at WashU. I am in the office Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday from 8-5. If your pet can not be alone that long, I can make arrangements with my husband to check on them during the day. He will also come to the meet and greet that we set up ahead of time. I am very thorough with retrieving all information from the pet parent, and also reading the pets body language. I follow the owners rules in their home and with their pet. I am available for house sitting (I have experience with plants and other small animals as well), for daily walks, and check ins.

About: I have been volunteering for my local Humane Society for the past year which intakes all different dog breeds and has allowed me to gain great experience with caring for dogs. I’m a proud dog and cat owner and will care for your animals as I do my own. You can guarantee my love and care for your pets. I am currently in between school programs so I have a lot of spare time. I am looking for a job that I can set my own schedule which is why pet care is a great fit for me. I have cared for my extended family’s animals in their homes over the last couple years. I have experience with supplying medications and diabetic shots to dogs. I will always watch out for your animal’s safety and ensure they are getting enough playtime.

About: I have experience with animals of all different sizes, ages and temperaments. I am new to Rover but definitely not new to taking care of animals. I have been fostering cats and dogs for years through MEHS, BAHS and stray rescue STL. Can provide proof if needed. I recently adopted one of my beautiful foster babies (Lilo). She is the only dog I have currently and is only 5 months old and very friendly with anyone and everything. I do have a 9 year old (Simba) and 6 month old (Charlie) cat, as well as a turtle (Peanut) I have had for 5 years. All of my animals are spayed/neutered. They are all allowed to enjoy the furniture just as much as I am. I would love to give your animals all the love and care while you are away. I am currently in college, so in my free time, I am usually home studying and cuddling up with my fur babies on the couch. I work part-time nights so I usually go in late while the animals are asleep so I am able to spend the day taking care of our pets. I make sure to feed them, give them a nice fresh bowl of clean water. Spoil them with a treat or two. Give them some love and affection, let them out to use the restroom and walk them if that is something you'd like me to do as well, as i know all animals have different needs and some need more exercise than others. If they are on a special diet or need any special care, just let me know as I am quite the note taker and can absolutely meet those needs for you.

About: I have had the pleasure of taking care of animals my whole life. I treat each pet like a cherished family member, and not just a job. I emphasize building trust, understanding individual pet personalities, and providing compassionate, attentive care that goes beyond basic feeding and watering. I work from home full time and can step away from my desk at anytime. If you have nervous dogs that can’t be left alone for long periods of time, my schedule allows me to work from anywhere and I can spend the day with them. I can easily take care of all your pets needs, walks? You got it. Sitting with your dog through a thunderstorm? Absolutely. I want to make sure that your dog doesn’t get thrown out of their routine, when I’m coming into others homes.

I feel at home and happy when I am able to be with and care for all kinds of dogs. I enjoy being active outside but I also enjoy cuddles and playtime. No matter the needs of your dog, I am willing to help! I am a local School Counselor, but want to spend my summer doing something else I enjoy while helping others who need quality care for their fur baby. I am extremely accommodating and willing to help your dog feel comfortable and happy no matter what. I look forward to meeting you and your dog.

About: I take the time to get to know each dog, ensuring they get the exercise and attention they need. I offer flexible walking hours to fit your busy lifestyle, so your dog always gets their daily stroll, even if your schedule changes. I specialize in small group walks or solo sessions to give each dog the undivided attention they deserve. I make sure every walk is fun and engaging experience, building a strong bond with your dog while they get plenty of exercise. I typically start my day with morning walks, which helps energize both me and the dogs. Depending on the dog, these walks may be more leisurely or faster paced to match their needs. If you have a busy schedule, I would fit in midday walks or potty breaks to make sure your dog stays happy and active. After a day of work or activities, evening walks can help dogs burn off any extra energy before bedtime. I would create a pet friendly area with comfortable bedding, toys, and access to fresh water. If a pet stays over for awhile, I’d make sure they have their own quiet space where they can retreat if they need rest.

Jenay was patient, attentive, and treated Casey like one of her own. It’s such a relief knowing I can leave my dog with someone I trust completely. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Jenay to anyone looking for loving and dependable pet care!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a child and enjoyed every minute of them. I provide a caring atmosphere to keep them calm and make them feel at home. I currently work part time with a very flexible schedule. Would love to watch your pup short notice or scheduled notice. They can stay a short time or for the weekend I have a six acre yard with a sweet dog who will keep your pet company and active. Lots of places to walk or chill

Paige has been our go-to sitter for a while now. She’s incredibly kind and thorough when she sits for us. Bianca, our anxious chihuahua-corgi, appreciates Paige’s calming demeanor and gentle caring! Choose Paige and you won’t be disappointed!

Rachel is one of the most loving and caring individuals I have ever met. I have seen the way she interacts with her own puppy Yoshi showing him the attention and love he needs. But she doesn't stop there. Rachel shows that same affection and care to other dogs as well. When she is with a dog she ensures they have everything they could ever need in the form of support, kind words, and lots of hugs.

About: I take the time to get to know each dog, ensuring they get the exercise and attention they need. I offer flexible walking hours to fit your busy lifestyle, so your dog always gets their daily stroll, even if your schedule changes. I specialize in small group walks or solo sessions to give each dog the undivided attention they deserve. I make sure every walk is fun and engaging experience, building a strong bond with your dog while they get plenty of exercise. I typically start my day with morning walks, which helps energize both me and the dogs. Depending on the dog, these walks may be more leisurely or faster paced to match their needs. If you have a busy schedule, I would fit in midday walks or potty breaks to make sure your dog stays happy and active. After a day of work or activities, evening walks can help dogs burn off any extra energy before bedtime. I would create a pet friendly area with comfortable bedding, toys, and access to fresh water. If a pet stays over for awhile, I’d make sure they have their own quiet space where they can retreat if they need rest.
