“Rachell sent pictures and had a big yard for Lacey. I know Lacey is glad to be back home, but she won't be as anxious next time she visits Rachell and her new bird and dog friends.”


“Jenna took such good care of our big fur babies for a night while we passed through St. Louis. Can’t say enough about the convenience and comfort knowing our doggies were happy and well taken care of! Highly recommend!”


“We loved having your dog stay with Samantha and Zach! They responded quickly, kept us posted, and send pictures of our happy girl! We will definitely recommend their family and is their services again! Thank you Samantha and Zach!”



“Lucy loved her stay with Erica! While i was in Europe, Erica and Lucy would send me pics and updates. We even left with home made dog treats :) Erica thinks of everything and asks all the right questions. I HIGHLY recommend Erica and will definitely reach out to her in the future when needed.”

“Stephanie did everything we asked of her to watch our Kelsey. She sent pics everyday. We texted a few times and she was prompt. Kelsey seemed to like her dogs especially her Westie. Stephanie is very considerate of your time as well as hers.”


“Our dog Otis had a great time with Erica during his two night stay at her home! We got plenty of updates and photos/videos. He came home content and very tired from all the playing he got with another dog!”


“Thank you so much for taking such good care of my Charlie. The frequent updates, photos, and videos helped so much to put my mind at ease. I’m so grateful for all you did to go above and beyond over a holiday weekend.”


“I'm very grateful Lucy was available this weekend. Maggie seemed to have had a great time and was very happy when she got home. Lucy's pick-up and drop-off was very punctual and she was available for an early drop-off when I returned home early in the day. Layla, Lucy's dog, seems to be a great playmate for Maggie. Got pictures of them playing and resting together every day. Will book again!”


“Monica took exceptional care of our 5 year old Shorkie while we were out of town for a several days. Was a pleasure to work with and very helpful with the whole process when we had questions (this was our first time using Rover). Sent pictures periodically showing our dog happy, relaxed and content. We highly recommend Monica and plan to request her services the next time we need someone to care for our dog.”


“She was great with our mini bernedoodle! She sent lots of updates and pictures and even went out and got plain Greek yogurt for him to put in his Kong. He came home very happy from his stay!”


“Paula is wonderful! She is a very kind person who took excellent care of our Lennie. Also, she was very responsive to all of our texts and even texted photos of him. Lennie came home a very happy guy! I highly recommend her and I will definitely work with her again.”


“Overall good experience. Great communication and I can tell she cared. The only thing I would complain about is she gave him wet food without us knowing which possibly caused him to have diarrhea and he had solid poos before he was dropped off.”


“Sherry and LaTia watched our two dogs over the Christmas holiday break. They were very responsive and flexible. They sent regular updates and pictures, which I greatly appreciated. Our pups had a great time with them! Highly recommend them as sitters!!”

“Laura was awesome with my 2 dogs - Sadie & Bella. She sent lots of photos and my dogs had a fun-filled 7 nights & 8 days. Laura was caring and enthusiastic. Her children helped to make Sadie & Bella feel like one of the family. I can highly recommend Laura for all your pet needs.”


“Highly recommend. Amy and Peter took great care of our fur baby. Loved getting pics of all the fun he was having. Loved the meet and greet before hand, made me more comfortable at drop off.”


“Raina was exceptional with our dog, Auggie. She sent daily videos and pictures with updates. It was very clear that he was well taken of, loved, and exercised daily. We were able to really enjoy our family vacation, knowing he was happy! We can’t wait to book with her again.”
