Danielle did a great job house and cat sitting. She asked questions for clarification, sent us updates regularly, and left the house in great shape. From the photos, it seems our cat was really comfortable with her and Elle took the time to get to know our cat’s personality. She will be sitting for us again and I highly recommend her.

About: As a lifelong animal lover with over 34 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, I understand how much your pets mean to you. I'm committed to giving them the same love, safety, and personalized attention they get at home. Plus, I'm certified in pet first aid and trained in positive reinforcement techniques, so you can trust your furry friends are in good hands Caring for pets isn't just part of my routine; it's my absolute joy! My days are all about making sure these furry friends get the love, exercise, and attention they deserve. Mornings kick off with walks or potty breaks, followed by feeding and playtime. Throughout the day, I fit in more walks, drop-ins, or daycare sessions tailored to each pet's unique needs. One of the best parts? My home has an amazing acre of fenced-in yard where pets can run free and play to their heart's content. Plus, I've even installed a DIY doggy door so they can come and go as they please. It's the perfect setup for them to feel right at home. Evenings are all about longer walks, cuddles, and winding down together before bed. On a weekly basis, I make sure to balance pet care with my personal schedule, so I'm always available for your pets, whether it's during the week or on weekends. My goal is to create a safe, loving space where pets feel like they're part of the family. For me, pet care isn't just a job—it's my passion! I have a fenced yard and one high energy pup to keep your dog company or if they are a low energy type even better cuz then they can hang out with me I have a fenced yard and one high-energy pup who can keep your dog company. If your dog is more low-energy, that's great too—they can hang out with me and be my buddy. No one is ever left feeling lonely here. My home is a lot like a dog park, with plenty of fenced in outside space for them to enjoy. If your dog does well at the dog park, I’m confident they’ll thrive with me!

Andrew came right on time for our dog Charlie and sent us cute pictures of how Charlie was doing. He texted me while he was still with Charlie and so we communicated in real time about how the visit was going. This is the most comfortable I have ever felt about a dog sitter!!!! I will definitely use Andrew again!!

Jennifer was great! My cat had some issues with anxiety and going outside the litter box and she was very communicative about what was happening, going above and beyond expectations to help. I came home early and we were able to catch the UTI before it developed.

About: Hello! I have been taking care of animals for over 13 years. I grew up with two cats and two dogs, and taking care of multiple neighbors animals whenever they were out of town. My partner also works on rover and I have helped him on multiple occasions! I have a very flexible schedule at work, currently only working a part time job. I will always prioritize your pet and making sure they get the best care. Being a pet mom myself, I would give the best care for your pet, just as I would for mine. That includes making sure they are fed and taken outside and played with, etc!

About: In a personal and professional setting, I have taken care of lizards, frogs, crabs, shrimp, insects, mice, dogs, cats, deer, chickens, goats, sheep, fish, both native and tropical, and rabbits. I was born loving animals and quite enjoy learning new things about them. I greatly enjoy meeting new pets of any variety, and quite enjoy getting to know them. I am incredibly patient with animals and have a respect for their own personal selfs. I work full time, but I am usually free from 3pm to 10pm on weekdays. My weekend days are typically free anytime. I would love to figure out times between these frames, as I am typically flexible if given enough time to prepare. I was formally in the military, so you can be assured I know how to follow instructions. I do love to have a written list of tasks and care instructions. I am generally knowledgeable of baseline care, but I will gladly follow your instructions. I am incredibly respectful of others' spaces, and will be as clean as possible while in anyone's home. My general rule with any animal is patience and repetition.

About: I've owned dogs for 15 years now. I was previously a fur Mom of 1. Now I am a fur Mom of 4! My son and I have 1 Guinea Pig and 3 adorable and sweet dogs. People that know me ask me to pet sit anything from cats and dogs, to goats and horses. I absolutely love caring for animals! We do all sorts of activities including walks, dog parks, and games in the fenced in back yard. I bathe and groom my mini poodles on a weekly-monthly basis. We have a set feeding schedule and a wonderful sun room where I crate train my dogs. Potty training and behavior training are things I enjoy! I have a very consistent work schedule so pets can get the care that they deserve! We have a large, fenced in backyard for plenty of fetch, stick chewing and running. We have a friendly neighborhood for daily walks. Pets get lots of love, attention and plenty of potty breaks at our home! Pet safety and care it my upmost priority! Pets are always given ample attention and one on one time. Food and water is monitored and scheduled according to owners. Pets are always supervised and given lots of love and pets. We have so many dog toys that there is something for every pet!

About: I have had several dogs throughout my entire life. I have helped raise several pups myself and am currently training my own puppy named Lola. I enjoy teaching dogs and taking care of them to help them live to their fullest! I can’t wait to meet you and your furry friends! I currently work part-time and am enrolled in college classes. I manage my time well enough to be able to schedule days for you and your pups needs! I live in an apartment but I would be more than willing to take the dogs to a park, on a walk, on trails, or to other activities to get their exercise in for the day! I respect everyone’s home and personal space just as it’s my own.

About: Hi! I’ve been around animals my whole life—literally. I grew up on a ranch so caring for animals is second nature to me. I started volunteering with Operation Pets Alive when I was just 7 years old, and ever since then, animals have held a huge place in my heart. I have a sweet cat of my own named Rue, and I’m always the go-to pet sitter for my friends and family. Whether it’s playtime, snuggles, or just making sure your pets feel safe and loved while you’re away, I’ve got it covered! I work part time (mostly 2:30-6) but when i’m not at work im free to come help out! I’m always down to either take a good long walk around the block or just keep your pets some company! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I make sure they have a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where they feel secure and loved. I follow all care instructions closely—feeding schedules, medications, routines—and keep a close eye on their behavior to make sure they’re happy and healthy. I’m also big on communication, so you’ll always get regular updates and photos while you’re away. Your pets will be treated like family, because that’s what they deserve!

About: I’m a devoted animal caretaker with over 25 years of hands-on experience and a deep, intuitive connection to animals of all kinds. I’m neurodivergent and have always felt tuned into the emotional world of animals — I pick up on subtle cues, communicate calmly, and adapt to each pet’s unique personality and needs. I was raised on a farm in my early childhood, surrounded by horses, pigs, donkeys, and goats. As a teenager, I spent time working with unridable horses — the so-called “lost causes.” I developed a reputation for being able to build trust and connection with animals that others couldn’t reach. That same ability has carried into my work with dogs and cats: I’m kind of an animal whisperer. I don’t dominate or control — I listen, observe, and build safety through relationship. Over the years, I’ve cared for everything from high-energy herding dogs to elderly chows needing stroller walks and patience. I frequently care for my mom’s brilliant, high-needs zuchon, and I’ve helped rescue dogs like my silky terrier recover from severe neglect and trauma. I currently live with three cats I raised from kittenhood and have experience with bottle babies and end-of-life medical care. I’ve supported cats through kidney failure and can administer subcutaneous hydration fluids while you’re away, if needed. Whether your pet is anxious, reactive, elderly, or just wonderfully weird, I meet them exactly where they are — and give them the kind of care that helps them feel safe and seen. Here’s a quick look at what I offer: - Experience with elderly, anxious, and reactive pets - Comfortable with oral meds and subcutaneous fluids (for cats) - Skilled at building trust with “difficult” animals - Can reinforce training and add enrichment to walks or playtime - LGBTQ+ and neurodivergent-friendly households welcome 🌈 Let’s make a plan that keeps your pets calm, loved, and thriving while you're away. 🐕💛🐈 I work part-time from home as a writer, so I have a flexible schedule and love incorporating pet care into my daily routine and rhythm. I don’t offer in-home care since I live in an apartment, but I’m available for 1–2 night overnight stays in your home. I focus on creating a calm, safe environment where pets feel secure, respected, and cared for—especially those with anxiety, special needs, or trauma histories.

About: I grew up on a farm where our pets were always family members and treated with love and respect. I have two rescue dogs myself. I am happy to keep my dogs separated from clients. I am fortunate that my parents have a farm and welcome their grand pups in case of overlaps in sittings. My girls do great with most other pets, however I understand every animal has their own personality and comfort zone. I respect and do things on the owner and the pet’s terms. I strive to provide an experience where you feel you are leaving your loved ones with people who care as much as you. I worked the corporate world since college and decided I would take a break and enjoy a summer with my own fur babies. I have always been the go-to dog sitter for close friends and family. I quickly received more requests by word of mouth with my flexible schedule this summer. I am currently working on starting my own company for pet products making my schedule open and flexible! I live in Boonville, MO. I attend regularly conservation areas, dog parks, and my parents wooded farm outside of Glasgow, MO. My home is an apartment. I have an outdoor deck with stairs that access a private fenced in area that is pet safe. My home is equipped with a dog door for my own pups to use at their leisure along with security cameras. Plus I am only a block from Katy Trail access!

Sophia has a big heart for animals and is very VERY responsible. We love working with her! She has cared for our cat and two dogs multiple times over the past 4 years when we've been gone for overnights as well as multi-week trips. Sophia's a good communicator and dependable; she shows up on time and makes sure our animals are able to stick to their regular eating and exercise routines. She gives them plenty of loving attention too, playing fetch with the dogs and making sure our cat gets lots of head scratches and lap time. The animals love Sophia and run to the door whenever she arrives. She's our first choice when we need a pet sitter.

Nicholas took amazing care of my animals while I was on vacation for a week. He followed the instructions I gave him wonderfully and even cleaned up extra without me having to ask him. He gave lots of love to my animals as well, so they didn't get lonely without me there, and he never made me worry about whether my animals were in the right hands or not. I would recommend Nicholas to anyone who wants to see their babies in good hands.

Nicole watched my sweet Baby Luke while we were on a little vacation. He was very well taken care of and so happy when we picked him up! Her own dogs are THE SWEETEST dogs, and he loved his time there. 100 ⭐️s!!

About: Hi! I’ve been around animals my whole life—literally. I grew up on a ranch so caring for animals is second nature to me. I started volunteering with Operation Pets Alive when I was just 7 years old, and ever since then, animals have held a huge place in my heart. I have a sweet cat of my own named Rue, and I’m always the go-to pet sitter for my friends and family. Whether it’s playtime, snuggles, or just making sure your pets feel safe and loved while you’re away, I’ve got it covered! I work part time (mostly 2:30-6) but when i’m not at work im free to come help out! I’m always down to either take a good long walk around the block or just keep your pets some company! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I make sure they have a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where they feel secure and loved. I follow all care instructions closely—feeding schedules, medications, routines—and keep a close eye on their behavior to make sure they’re happy and healthy. I’m also big on communication, so you’ll always get regular updates and photos while you’re away. Your pets will be treated like family, because that’s what they deserve!

About: I have been pet sitting and walking for more than 4 years. I have a variety of experience to boarding in my home, drop in visits, house sitting and walking. Families have trusted me with their pets and their homes with no issues. I can provide references on the exceptional care I provide for animals. If your pet takes medications I am willing to administer it. I will play and cater to your pet. I follow the routine that you already have your pet and send plenty of photos. Rest knowing that you have a trusted person that will go above and beyond for your fur babies. Contact me today for any questions, booking information or to schedule a meet and greet. Please keep in mind rover takes 20% out of pay. Looking forward to caring for your pet/pets 💙 Thank you Please contact me regarding scheduling I am willing to accommodate your needs but would need a heads up on scheduling prior to be able to do that. I do my best to make your fur babies feel like they are at home. Safe, comfy and cozy to make them feel loved. My environment is quiet, and my home is peaceful.

Tami is amazing and reliable! She competently kept my cat alive while I was on vacation, and even better, got him to show himself. My Junior is very shy and skittish and is afraid of everyone in the world but me, but he somehow warmed up to Tami and interacted with her. She's a miracle worker! I think she also left my apartment cleaner than when I left!

Since I’ve met Michelle a few years ago, I’ve admired her tenacity for loving all animals and especially dogs. I’ve left my elderly dog Hank with her numerous times and have always felt comfort in the fact someone so loving to animals is ensuring his elder years are his best years. Could not find a better person to watch Hank and I know she will do well with any dog owner.
