“Rachael took great care of Ted while we were gone. We don’t usually leave for as long as we did but she provided tons of updates and we knew he was having the best time!”

“Teddi had the best time ever with Sarah! Sarah gave me daily updates and all the pictures I wanted. She was a great communicator from the start. Teddi already can’t wait to go back. Thanks, Sarah!”

“I felt like my fur babies had a great vacation where they were welcomed into the family. I love that the sitter worked from home so that my dogs could go outside anytime they needed. I felt my pets were safe and well taken care of with the sitter.”

“Julia was fantastic! Great at communication and very sweet. She helped my fur baby at a very hard time! I would recommend her to anyone! Very caring and compassionate! Your fur baby will be in great and loving hands with Julia!”

“Madeline was a great sitter! She was very responsive, gave plenty of updates, and sent lots of great photos. Owen was a happy, worn out pup after his stay. Thanks again!”

“Mary took great care of Craig! He is not quick to trust many people and really seemed to be comfortable with Mary. He got to play outside, go on walks, and take naps- all of his favorite things.”

“This is the first time our kiddos came home happy! They typically ignore us and pout for a few days. Oh and they come home with the sniffles. Not this time!! He sent pics while we were away and they looked both relaxed and playful in the pictures. Thank you so much for watching and loving on our babies as if they were your own! If you are thinking about this service... Adolfo is your person! He communicates and makes sure everyone (pups and people) feel confident.”

“Ben was awesome with our golden retriever! He sent daily pictures and updated us on how out Gus was doing throughout the day. I would highly recommend Ben to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”

“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!”

“Damica kindly accepted my last minute 8-day boarding request for my two dogs. Damica spent generous amounts of time engaging with both myself and my yappy dogs. She took great care of them and sent daily video and photo updates of their activities. I will definitely book again.”

“Elizabeth was great! She sent regular updates with pictures and I felt very comfortable with my dog in her care. Would recommend and use again!”

“Jackie and Enoch were great with Mia! Mia had a blast with their pup, with plenty of space to run around and a cozy home to rest after all the fun. They provided plenty of pictures/updates and we're always quick to respond. We would happily have them watch Mia again!!”

“Great service! My dog Pompeii was well taken care of. He had loads of fun and was very active while being taken care of while I was out of town for my daughter's wedding. Great communication along with photo updates during his stay. Highly recommended!”

“Reba is wonderful! She took amazing care of my girl, Penny. Penny has a bunch of quirks that don’t make it easy to care for her but I knew she was in wonderful hands with Reba. I highly recommend her!!”


“I was so pleased with Jennifer, Sharon& Scott! I had to go out of town for a week and 2 of my cats need to be given medicine. They were able to take care of that, and they sent me twice daily detailed notes and videos and pics. It made it so much easier to be away from my kitties. I will definitely use their services again!”

“Sarah opened her home to my girls and made them comfortable. They usually go to their granny's but all were going on this trip, so it was a very big deal for them to stay elsewhere. They played, walked, rested, and probably were questioning coming home, they were given so much attention. Sarah shared photos and even with a snowstorm ensured they were safe and had fun. I was very pleased. We will call upon sarah again!”


About: As a High School Science Teacher and a dedicated father, I bring a level of care to pet sitting that is grounded in responsibility, observation, and routine. I understand that your pets are family, and they deserve a sitter who is as invested in their well-being as you are. I live in a quiet South City home (63111) featuring a fully fenced-in backyard. This offers your pups a secure, private environment where they can run, play, and explore safely—a rare find in many parts of the city! While I am currently a "cat dad" to my 8-year-old resident cat, I have been a lifelong dog owner. From my earliest childhood memories until earlier this year, dogs have always been a central part of my home and heart. This lifelong experience means I am deeply familiar with canine behavior, exercise needs, and the unique companionship they provide. I am an expert at managed, slow introductions to ensure that my senior cat and your pups coexist peacefully and safely. Daily Care: As a high school science teacher, I am currently on summer break and have transitioned into "full-time pet care" mode! My schedule is wide open from late May through mid-August, meaning I am home throughout the day to provide frequent potty breaks, backyard playtime, and plenty of companionship. Weekly Availability: I offer a rotating schedule for boarding. My calendar is always kept up-to-date, so you can easily see which days I am open for overnight stays or daycare only. Consistency: Because I am not balancing an office job during the summer, I can strictly adhere to whatever feeding, medication, or exercise schedule your pet requires. I pay close attention to details—from a dog’s body language and energy levels to their specific feeding and medication schedules. My goal is to create a predictable, low-stress environment where your pet feels like a member of the family. I have a fully (6 foot tall) fenced-in backyard where dogs can play safely. I always supervise yard time to ensure no "great escapes" or unwanted digging. I also always clean up after bathroom breaks in my yard. I use baby gates and separate "safe zones" to ensure my cat and your pups coexist peacefully. I worked for a vet clinic many years ago but still remember some emergency techniques. I can send daily photos and keep your vet's information at hand. It's also good for me to know more about your pet as in: Does your pet have any "triggers" (squirrels, mailmen, other dogs)? Are there any "off-limits" pieces of furniture or rooms? What is their favorite way to be comforted if they get homesick? Etc.
“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!”

Gravois Park dog parents share their Rover experiences
Gia had a great time at Laura’s! She got home 2 days ago and still hasn’t fully recovered (in a good way lol). Laura takes good care to keep the doggos busy so they don’t get anxious or miss you too much. Gia got to play with multiple new friends and probably learned a thing or two. Laura is really good about sending pics and videos - and she is very responsive if you send a message to check in. Would definitely use again!

I have two dogs and two cats, and finding someone we truly trust with all four of them is no small feat — but she exceeded every expectation. She was incredibly communicative throughout the entire stay, keeping us updated on how each pet was doing, how they were interacting with one another, and anything they needed along the way. One of our dogs is older, and she was especially attentive to that, proactively letting us know about any health-related observations so we were never left wondering. That kind of thoughtfulness and care means everything when you’re away. She treated our pets exactly the way we would — with patience, attention, and genuine love. We came home to four happy, well-cared-for animals, and we couldn’t ask for more. Highly recommend and will absolutely be booking again!

Damica was really communicative and easy to coordinate drop-off and pick-up times with. I got lots of pictures and videos updates during Flo's stay, and I appreciated that she stayed nearby and kept Flo on a leash whenever they were outside since Flo is so little. When I got Flo back at the end of her stay, she was just as happy as usual. Would definitely book again in the future! Thanks again
