“She was fantastic with our very energetic German shepherd Lucian. She provided many pictures while we were away! We will definitely be having her look after Lucian on our next trip!”


“I'm beyond happy with the service I received. She made sure to communicate and check in with me everyday at the times I specified for Midnight. I normally come home and midnight looks sad and depressed when others have watched her. I came in and she was so happy, energized and very well taken care of. My house looks the same, nothing out of place or damaged. Thank you so much Gabrielle. I will definitely continue to use her and reference her to my other dog parents. Thank you!!!”


“This was the first time leaving my baby and I was nervous, but even from the first meet and greet, I knew Lauren would be a great friend to Lucy. She did an amazing job, updating me, connecting with Lucy during her visits and adjusting her schedule to suit our needs. She took the time to prepare Lucy a yummy dinner and play with her favorite toys. Lucy adored her and was happy and healthy during my trip. I’m so glad we had Lauren to help and will definitely be coming back in the future!”

About: I have taken care of cats and dogs since I was a kid. I would adopt a hundred if I could, but since I can’t I think this app is the next best thing!

“If there’d been a 10-star rating option for this sitter, I’d have selected it expeditiously!

She even cleaned and tidied up an unexpected accident my cat had left during her last visit. I’m super impressed and happily pleased with Michelle’s service. Would I ever rebook with her?. . .Is the sky blue? Yes 👏🏾 Yes 👏🏾 YES 🙌🏾”


About: I’ve always had animas and I love engaging with them, especially dogs. I am gentle, attentive, and fun! I would love the opportunity to spend time with your pets! I am currently an undergraduate student and employed part time. I am mostly interested in walking and drop ins during my availability throughout the week. I am extremely friendly to all pets. I am also very active which makes me a great companion for a walk (your dogs favorite word). I am respectful to peoples homes and any more instructions that you have more me are appreciated.

About: Hi, my name is Michaela and I have lived in St. Louis for about 6 years now. I have loved and cared for animals my entire life from horses, dogs, and cats. I grew up on a farm and learned the responsibility and experience necessary to care for animals and the proper attention and safe keeping they need. Prior to moving to St. Louis I worked temporarily as a vet tech in my home town, and there I expanded my handling skills and was able to deepen my knowledge of animal health. My pets that live with me here in St. Louis are my dog Blue and my cat Fuzzums! Blue is appropriately nicknamed “Bl(ue)ooper” as he is the clumsiest and silliest dog I have ever cared for. Fuzzums is of course very fuzzy and loves her cuddles. Along with Blue I have a horse named Chance, three other dogs, and two cats that currently live with my parents back in my hometown. Thanks for reading! :) My schedule varies around meetings but early morning (prior to 7:15 a.m.) and in the evening (after 4:30 p.m.) I do have random days where anytime works so just message me and we can configure a time that is mutually convenient. I live in an apartment in downtown but I take my dog blue for three walks a day. If you let me know your dogs schedule I will make sure to work my day around that.

“Niah was a great sitter! She was kind and enthusiastic at the our meet and greet. I knew my cats would be taken great care of and felt very comfortable leaving them in her care. Also had some last minute travel changes and was easy to contact and flexible which was appreciated. Would work again with Niah!”

She spends time with them to make sure that they get lots of love and get their medication. She checks in on the app so you know when she's there, sent me pictures of my fur babies so it made me feel very comfortable leaving them. Jamie very sweet, respectful, professional and I would have her watch my fur babies again! ?”

Caroline K.
“I could not be happier with my Rover dog walker, Caroline! I have two large dogs (Saint Bernard and Labrador Retriever) and finding someone who can handle both of them confidently was a challenge. From the very first meet and greet, I knew I was in great hands. Caroline was punctual, professional and clearly experienced with big dog breeds. Every walk is a highlight for my dogs. They come back happy, tired, and well-exercised, which is no small feat given their size and energy levels! I also love the updates and photos she sends after each walk - it's such a reassuring touch. Highly recommend Caroline for anyone with dogs who needs reliable, loving care!”

Michaela J.
“I’ve known Michaela for 10 years now and I wouldn’t trust anyone more with my dog! Seriously, I think she might be an animal whisperer. She’s watched my dog, Heath, on several occasions and he simply adores her! Which is saying a lot because he’s typically pretty hard to handle. She’s also extremely compassionate towards animals in general, definitely the kind of person who jumps in to help any animal in need!”

Keri did a great doing drop in visits with my two cats. I highly recommend her and will use her service again.

Ryan and Jennifer were nothing short of amazing! We got lots of cute kitty pictures of our little guy while we were out of state every day! Ryan was excellent at checking his litter boxes, following our medication routine and checking up with us if we had any concerns! Ryan even left us a super adorable picture of our cat for when we came home! Great communication, professional and kind humans, would recommend!
