“Reba is awesome. She treated our two dogs like her own. I knew how great of a time they had because she sent constant updates. I don’t even think our dogs even missed us. Do yourself a favor and book Reba so you can enjoy your vacation. ?”


“Francie, thank you so much for the care that you gave my 3 boys. They were so happy with you and that gave me such peace while being away. I highly recommend you Francie, and I’m thankful to know I have you to rely on when needed. 🐶🐩💕Rachele”

“Lucy was great! Excellent communication both before and during our dog’s stay. We highly recommend Lucy to anyone looking for a nice and comfortable place to stay in St. Louis.”

“Our girls had a fantastic time with Jennifer and her pups! Jennifer sent photos and updates every day, putting my mind at ease while we were out of town. The girls loved spending time with Jennifer’s pups, and they got to go on lots of walks and adventures! I’m so grateful for the wonderful care they were provided :)”

“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)”

“As always, Rachael took amazing care of our dog while we were away for a quick weekend trip. She provided constant updates and was especially great with our dog who is afraid of the dark. We are going to miss having such a great Rover when we move away!”

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.

“Rosie stayed with Jordan for a long first stay, and she was a very happy pup when we picked her up. Jordan was really easy to coordinate with. We would definitely have Rosie stay with him again!”

“Jeena did a wonderful job taking care of our dog peanut. Giving him plenty of attention and keeping me and my family updated with photos. She met with us prior to the stay and was very kind. Highly recommended.”

“Tilly was so loved and cared for, I wasn't sure she'd want to come back home with me! I was so appreciative of the communication with updated photos and videos; I'm also grated for helps with behavior modifications since my dog is a foster and still learning the ropes. Highly recommended!”

“Sarah C has boarded our dog and dropped in on our cats. She is dependable, and our dog had a great time with her. She took care of him like he was her own.”

“Sophia did such a great job caring for my Franklin. He had the best weekend going for walks and playing fetch in her fenced in yard! Sophia was great with communication and so easy to work with!”

“Jordan did a great job with my higher maintenance dogs. She paid close attention to them and addressed a minor behavior concern (dog wasn’t eating) quickly. I highly recommend Jordan!”

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.
“Nicole and Tim were great sitters! They were flexible, very quick to respond, and their home was very clean. They took great care of Quinn and I know she had a great time with them.”
