About: I’ve had a deep love for animals since I was a kid, and I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 7 years old. My first dog was a beloved member of our family for 12 wonderful years, and since then we have welcomed three more pups into our lives. One of them is my own, Nala, a pitbull mix who is truly my entire world. I have experience with dogs of all ages, including geriatric dogs and those needing regular medication. In addition to dogs, I’ve had rabbits since I was 11. My current bunny, Minnette, will be 14 this August after losing her bonded partner in 2021. I’ve also regularly cat sat for friends and family and am comfortable with feline care. Over the years I’ve rescued many dogs and volunteered at the Animal Protective Association, also known as APA, in St. Louis where I gained hands-on experience with a wide variety of breeds and temperaments. I have a particular interest in dog body language and behavior. I love learning how to make animals feel safe, understood, and happy. Whether your pet is playful, shy, elderly, or energetic, I will be attentive to their unique needs and treat them like family. I just graduated college at Mizzou, and am taking a gap year before I begin graduate school next fall! This means I have plenty of time and my schedule is wide open to care for your pets. <3 I have always been an avid animal lover-- not even just dogs, but all sorts of pets! I have had my bunny since she was 1 year old and I was 11, and she is now about to turn 14 next month! I have also had dogs since I was 7 years old! I grew up with my childhood dog, Louie for 12 years. Now, I have my own dog, Nala. I have had her for about 3 years now, and I consider myself to be a helicopter parent (ask anyone haha)! With that being said, I am ALWAYS paying attention to details, instructions, and am very vigilant about making sure your pet is getting everything they need. As I do with my own pets, I will give that same attention and dedication to yours!
About: I have taken care of pets all my life! I grew up with multiple dogs in the house (and some cats) and have always been obsessed with animals! I’ve even fostered the last couple years and gotten to know a plethora of breeds and temperaments! I currently work part-time and would have plenty of time to prioritize your pet! I would include them in everything I do and always inform you of our every move. I have a back yard and a car if transportation of your pet is needed. I have multiple rooms where your furry friend can choose to be on a couch with company or in his crate by himself.
“I am so pleased with the way my baby was taken care of! So much communication and you could see the care in the videos! My baby was so happy! I can’t say enough. I highly recommend!”
About: I have always had a natural love for animals. Ever since I was a little girl, I have felt my purpose in life was to care for every kind of animal. I have had pets since I was 6 years old and I now have a dog of my very own. I am organized, efficient, and compassionate when tending to the needs of animals. I also previously worked at a veterinary hospital and doggy daycare. I learned lots of valuable information about animals and their needs. I also gained lots of experience of the “not-so-glamorous” tasks of maintaining the health and cleanliness of the pets’ environments. I am currently available for pet care in the evenings after 4:30pm Monday through Thursday. I can check in and take your pet for a walk, feed them dinner, and play.

About: I grew up on a farm so I've always been around animals! That ranging from, cows, horses, goats, many dogs, cats, bird and guinea pigs! I love all animals and treat them like my own. I currently work a full-time job. I will be able to provide enough time for your animals and give them the love and attention they require. I live on a 20 acre farm that has plenty of room to run and play! I also have two dogs myself that love all the attention I'm able to give them.
“Megan kept our cat, Stephen, happy and well fed. She dropped in every day to check on him and give him attention. Everything was in great shape when we returned and Stephen was not distressed that we were out of town for several days. I would definitely hire Megan if we are away from home again.”
About: I have been and always will be a very caring and loving person to animals. I currently have 3 dogs, 1 cat, 3 chickens, and 6 goats at home and care for them everyday. I work around dogs all day so have experience giving medications and loving on them, as well as noticing signs of possible sickness. I am currently working part time as a dog groomer but have a lot of time around work to help care for your pets! I'm also available during the weekend. I currently have 3 dogs at my house that use a fenced in yard and they use kennels as well. When I take them out, I use a good leash and make sure to have a tight grip.
“Molly is amazing! She came over a couple of times before we left town to ensure she had our routine down. Professional and responsible. Would definitely recommend her to friends, family and anyone else!”
About: Growing up, I was a part of a program called Human Animal Bonding in Colorado, where I was taught how to connect top dogs emotionally, socially and verbally and use those skills to apply to real life situations, breaking me out of my social, insecure, neurodivergent shell. I've grown up with six big terriers, so I know my way around big, cuddly, dogs. My best friend is a German Shepherd named Ziva. I currently work part-time shifts that can go from 7-2 (Tues), or 7 - 11 (Wed), or 7-4 (weekends). I wish to pursue my dog-loving passions and possibly turn it into a career, alongside with my first responder training, and I hope starting Rover will do that. I take care of big dogs, numerous cats, and six other types of animals at home, so I can't have other animals at home due to the unfamiliarity. I am looking for extra activities, ones that consists outside of work and home because that's all where I am ever at these days. I just moved to Missouri, and I hope to find show the love I have for animals to places beyond my home. I have all kinds of necessary dog/cat accommodations. I have crates if needed, toys, extra food, leashes, etc. In my home, I have two big dogs who are trained to stay on 30 acres of property, they co-exist with barn cats and other various animals. Because of the other critters on the land, I do have to let them outside every time I leave the house. I had a dog that received special medical treatment every day and had to be watched regularly as he grew mean and tiredsome due to his deteriorating health. Fortunately, he is in a better place, but it shows that I can manage and care for dogs all of different behaviors and necessities and if I can use some of that stuff for other dogs, I've love to.
About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I currently have a dog named Rocko who is more like a daughter than a pet to me. I also have 2 adorable cats, one is 22 years old and the other is 5. I have always had passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets throughout my entire life. I have had dogs of all different breeds and sizes from an Australian husky mix to laber doodles. I also believe a healthy pup is an active pup so I would love to take yours out on a walk. Side note: I also offer grooming during house stays for an additional fee! I’m currently available anytime to look after your fury family while you’re away! Or if you just need a reliable animal lover to take your dog on a walk. A walk a day keeps the vet away! When watching your fur baby I will send you updates and pictures of how they’re doing, and fill you in on any activities we did together. I’ll also follow any guidelines left for me by the owner. If they’re staying at my house they will have to be leashed when outside. When inside they are free to explore and play and I can also crate them if needed.
