Dog Boarding in Granite City

“First time using Rover, and it was a great experience! Shannon is quick to respond and easy to work with. She gave updates and I could tell my pup had fun! Very convenient service. Will use again!”

“If you want your pet to be spoiled and catered to while you’re away, I highly recommend Nana! She was fantastic with providing care and updates.”

Aigner C.

“Jamie and Aaron were amazing!! Max had the best time and I think he was sad to leave. They provided pictures and video while he was there. Will definitely use them in future!!”

About: Hi, I’m Maddie! 🐾 I’ve had cats and dogs in my life since I was a baby — from tiny Pomeranians to big, lovable German Shepherds. Over the years, I’ve pet sat for friends, family, and neighbors (both dogs and cats!) and love giving pets the care, walks, and attention they deserve. I’m currently a medical resident, which means my schedule shifts weekly — but that actually gives me the flexibility to help care for your pets when you need it most. You can count on me to be reliable, responsible, and trustworthy (I take caring for your furry family members as seriously as I do my patients!). Whether it’s long walks, playtime, snuggles, or just keeping your pets company, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. 🐶🐱💛 As a medical resident, my schedule changes week to week, but I have flexibility for daytime, evening, and some weekend visits to fit your pet’s needs. I live in a spacious, pet-friendly apartment with my own small dog. There’s plenty of room for play indoors, and I have safe, walkable areas nearby for exercise and potty breaks. While I don’t have a yard, I make sure dogs get plenty of fresh air and supervised outdoor time. I can also crate pets upon request to match their routine and keep them comfortable.

“Tina and her husband were wonderful caretakers for our sweet terrier Lilly. They were so welcoming when we got there. Their setup was perfect. They had a fenced back yard. They also took her on walks, brushed her, doted on her, let her sleep with them and made her feel so at home that when we came to pick her up she wanted us to come in instead of running out to the car as usual. She wanted all her peeps to be together. That is true testimony to the wonderful experience she had. Tina also kept us updated every couple of days with photos and gave us a full report when we came to pick up. Our girl had no problems so no more reporting was required. We were delighted with their services!”

Laura H.

“Lauren was great! She communicated well. Kept me updated on how my Lady was doing. Loved all the photos. I could tell my girl got lots of love and attention while being there. She even had a nice yard, well fenced for my Lady to get some fresh air, sniffs and exercise.”

Olivia W.

“Wonderful sitter. Sent pics everyday. Took wonderful care of my puppy. I will definitely be using her again.”

“If you’re looking for a dog sitter who goes above and beyond, Keri is it. She watched my pup recently and absolutely knocked it out of the park. When my flight got canceled last minute, Keri didn’t even blink—she just handled it. She made an extra trip to get food for my dog without me even asking, and stayed in close contact the entire time. I got photos and videos almost every day (sometimes multiple times), and I never once had to wonder how things were going. No other sitter I’ve used has ever been this proactive, thoughtful, and communicative. Keri is the kind of sitter you hope you’ll find but rarely do. She’s a total gem.”

“Our dog had a great time with Mary and got to attend many fun activities. Mary also sent us many pictures throughout our time away and was very responsive to our requests. We would highly recommend Mary to other puppers and their families.”

About: Hi! My name is Maria and I live in St. Louis with my dog, Aviva. I love animals and have extensive experience caring for both dogs and cats through personal pet ownership as well as petsitting for others. I enjoy providing pets with the attention, exercise, and care they need to feel comfortable and happy while their owners are away. I am an experienced pet and house sitter with hands on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, including senior pets and animals with special medical needs. I am comfortable administering medications, monitoring recovery, and providing post-operative care following surgeries and medical procedures. As a dog owner myself, I walk 3–5 miles daily and am happy to accommodate pets that require longer walks and higher activity levels. I also have experience handling large dogs and managing a variety of temperaments, including reactive pets, as my own dog is a 70-pound reactive dog. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a remote worker, I enjoy having a reason to get out of the house and stay active. My flexible schedule allows me to be available for drop in visits, potty breaks, feedings, and walks during the workday, while also having longer blocks of time available in the mornings before work and in the evenings after work. I walk several miles a day with my own dog, so regular walks and exercise are already an important part of my routine. I always tailor my care to each pet's individual needs and their owner's routine. Whether I am caring for pets in my client's home or providing drop in visits and walks, I prioritize keeping their schedule as consistent as possible. This includes feeding, fresh water, exercise, playtime, administering medications if needed, and plenty of attention and affection. For dogs, I ensure they receive appropriate exercise, enrichment, and bathroom breaks. For cats, I focus on maintaining a clean litter box and respecting each cat's comfort level and personality.

About: I grew up with a dog and helped care for various family members pets. I cared for my roommates dog in undergrad and law school. More recently I’ve been the go-to dog sitter for sister when she’s vacationing. I have love and affection for all animals. Most of experience is with older or rescue dogs but I would enjoy taking care of puppies and cats! I am currently working full-time (Mon - Fri 8am to 5pm) but will soon transition to part-time work. I work 5 minutes from my job so I can come home midday for potty breaks and walks when boarding. My weekends are completely open! My condo building has a fenced in dog park and gated parking lot with grassy areas. My unit is on the first floor with a door to the outside. No elevator or stairs required. I live in walking distance to Lafayette Square Park for longer dog walks.

“Cody had a wonderful 2 day stay with Ebony. I wasn't gone more than 15 minutes before I received the first of several pics from Ebony. Cody was running around and playing with the other dogs. He just made himself at home. Ebony was very warm and welcoming. I will definitely use her again.”

Joe H.

“This was our first time boarding our fur baby! Leah sent me pictures and kept me updated. My bougie dog enjoyed himself with other dogs. 10/10 recommend! We will definitely be a returned customer”

Keyonna D.

“Our pit was so happy and calm after a week with Nicole; it felt less like boarding and more like leaving family with family. We are very glad to have found such a safe and comfy home away from home.”

Kasey S.

“Robert did an excellent job taking care of our dog that by the time I went to pick him up, he decided that he wants to continue to starly on the couch with his friend. I had to coax off the couch so that we could get going home since it was late when I picked up him. I would recommend him for anyone who needs their furrikids to be taken care in there absence.”

Tyson K.

“I absolutely would recommend Jayde to ANY and EVERYONE! She was so good with my doggy. She shared pictures with an update every single night. She even got to sleep in Jayde's bed! Jayde honestly treated my baby like she was her own. She was honestly fabulous. I would use her 100 times over, if I ever need another dog sitter she will definitely be who I use! (if I could give her 10 stars I would)”

Kristina J.

“So glad I found Kelly to watch my poodle, Napoleon. She’s able to adapt to the unpredictability of my life and she’s quick with responses to my inquiries.”

Ricardia H.

“Tre’Ana was an excellent host and worked with me on times and dates. Would recommend her to anyone!! My Hazel was definitely taken care of and so happy when I picked her up.”

Iquashia H.

“What a great experience. They were kind and very professional. Katie has a lot of experience with dogs and is very caring and knowledgeable. Her home was clean and welcoming and her dogs were wonderful, welcoming friends to my loveable goofball boy. I’m so glad I found these folks. Can’t recommend them enough.”
