“Rachel great! We really appreciate her willingness to regularly walk two dogs, both of which need to learn a bit more leash etiquette. We highly recommend Rachel for your pet care needs!”
2. Melinda S.
“Melinda has watched my 2 cats several times while I have been out of town. She took excellent care of them and I plan on using her services in the future. My cats liked her and they are a good judge of character.”

“Kelly is AMAZING !!!!!!!!!”
5. Kyleen W.
“Kyleen is amazing! Yesterday my dog had an accident in her crate with diarrhea everywhere. Kyleen responded to the situation with compassion and understanding- she even wiped down some of the mess so that it was easier for me to clean up once I got home! I would highly recommend her!”
6. Joy M.
“Joy went out of her way to meet our dogs beforehand. She was kind and attentive, she sent photos of our boys while she was there. Will definitely be using her again!!”
7. Emily B.
“I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Emily for several years, and I highly recommend her as a pet sitter! Emily is not only an animal lover but also incredibly responsible, dependable, and attentive. I believe Emily will be a great pet sitter on Rover!”
8. Samantha C.
“Samantha is a responsible dog owner and will make sure pets are in safe hands. She has watched my previous dogs a handful of times and is responsive and attentive to the pets needs at any given time. She is an amazing person and will make sure your pets are taken of.”
9. Christina L.
“Great caretaker. Has been taking care of our Airedale For years!”
10. Laura M.
“I can't recommend Laura enough! From the moment I contacted her, I could tell she is very proffessional and truly passionate about animals. My dog, who can be a little picky with strangers and other dogs, took to his walker immediately. The service is always punctual, reliable, and communicates clearly, so I never have to worry about a thing. It’s also obvious she genuinely care about each dog’s well-being — my little Yorkie gets excited for his walks and comes back home happy and tired every time! It’s such a relief knowing my dog is in such great hands while I’m at work. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable dog walking service!”
11. Nicole H.
“I love that I can rely on Nicole when I have days that we can't get home to walk our pup!”
12. Jade F.
“I have a 1 year old puppy named Bean. I have trusted Jade to watch her when I go on vacation. She has done this for me a few times. Sometimes we go on walks as well as she likes to do. She does a great job of taking care of Bean, and I will always ask her first to watch Bean. I know she’s loving towards other dogs as well because she enjoys taking Bean when she doesn’t even need watched.”
13. Sara V.
“Sara was fantastic and provided great communication! Highly recommend ☺️”
14. Payton F.
“Payton was awesome with our 3 cats. One of them needed a little extra care since he was diabetic and required insulin shots twice a day and special food. Not only did she make sure they were fed Payton always took time to give them all the extra love and pets. I would highly recommend Payton to care for your fur babies.”
15. Jayla E.
“I have known Jayla since the day she was born, she is one of the most responsible persons I know of, she's very nice and funny and if there is one certain thing I know about her is that she absolutely loves animals. I think that if you pick her to care for your pet that not only would you not have to worry about your pet you can count on your pet having a new friend.”
16. Paige B.
“Paige does a great job!”
17. Taylor M.
“Taylor is a gem! She does such a good job with our dog, sends me the cutest photos, and always keeps me up-to-date. I really appreciate it. It’s hard to trust just anyone with your pup; knowing Taylor is taking care of my Pepper keeps me at ease.”
18. Megan T.
About: I have experience caring for a variety of furry and feathered friends! One of my first jobs was pet sitting for neighbors when they went out of town. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs, cats, chickens, goats, bunnies, fish, and even sugar gliders (I have one myself!). I believe pets deserve the best care, even when their owners aren’t home, and I strive to provide the same love and attention they’re used to. I enjoy staying active, especially with animals, and I hope to bring joy to them—and peace of mind to you—knowing your pet is happy, exercised, and well cared for when you return home! I’m a recent graduate student studying for my Occupational Therapy board exam, and I’ve found that the best way to take a break from the books is by spending time with animals! Whether it’s going for a walk with a pup, playing with a cat, or just giving them some extra love, it’s the perfect way to recharge. Caring for pets brings me so much joy, and I love knowing that I’m helping them stay happy and active while their owners are away! The most important part of pet care is always keeping a close eye on your fur baby! My family has a playful 4-year-old Yorkie named Roxy, who loves to fetch but also has a knack for getting into things she shouldn’t. Because of that, I’ve learned that attention to detail and active listening are key to making sure pets stay safe and happy. In your home, I prioritize their well-being by providing plenty of playtime, supervision, and affection to ensure they feel comfortable and cared for at all times!
19. Micah S.
“I’ve had Micah watch my 7 year old dachshund several times while I was out of town. He always does a great job and makes Copper feel at home! I’ve seen him with other dogs, cats, and puppies and he’s always done as the owners wish.”

About: Dogs have been part of my family my whole life. When I moved to the Metro St Louis Area the house I bought had to have a fenced back yard. I found a house with a fenced Great, Green space in the back. There is a covered porch and a dog door to get in the heated garage. I work M-F. But am available nights and weekends. The dogs would enjoy the outside space as weather allows. They would come inside at night. My 2 dogs love to share their space. At Holidays the relatives all bring their dogs when they come visit. My Golden Retriever & Lab are good hostesses.
