About: I LOVE animals! I grew up on a farm in Arizona surrounded by dogs, chickens, cows, hamsters, and even a few ferrets and a snake! I adopted my own fur baby (an almost three year old lab, Pyrenees, Newfoundland mix🥰) a few years ago, and we are excited to be helping y’all out with your pets! I’m currently not working besides taking care of pets on Rover, so my availability is pretty open and flexible. In very few instances, I may need to request a slight changing in time frame to accommodate for my two kiddos under two (fun times! 😂 ) and dropping off/picking up my partner from his job. All things considering, life as a stay at home mom allows me to be most available for doggy day care and boardings, but if you’re fine with my sister tagging along to help with my away-from-home sittings, I can sit your house for you as well (overnights most of the time for me are a no-go, but I’m a night owl/early bird so I can come and leave early/late, and my sister is able to spend overnights as well if needed throughout most of the week. But you never know so please feel free to talk to me and we can see if we can work something out 😊). If you’re considering boarding/doggy day care, my apartments have a dog park just a short walk away from my unit, so I would be able to provide them with ample exercise, and both my kiddos and my pup LOVE and get along well with other pets. We are also conveniently located only five minutes from the airport, so you can drop them off on your way to vacation and pick them up without going too far out of your way on your way home! I have experience with most breeds, ages, and needs of dogs, and while I’m not trained in any type of CPR/first aid (nor have I ever needed to use it), I have the head knowledge. Don’t hesitate to ask any questions! Thank you for booking with me! Your pets will be well loved. 🥰 NOTICE: I NO LONGER ACCEPT PITS OR PIT MIXES TO BOARD. I HAVE HAD TOO MANY CASES WHERE A SITUATION AROSE WHERE MY DOG OR ANOTHERS’ DOG(S) HAVE BEEN PUT IN AN UNSAFE SITUATION DUE TO A PIT. AS OF NOW, I STILL ACCEPT HOUSE SITTINGS WITH PITS/PIT MIXES. THANK YOU FOR UNDERSTANDING. 🥲 As I said, this is my only source of income, so I can cater to the needs of your pet right along with my own with practically nothing to stand in the way! 😊 I treat your pet like my own (yes, they even sleep on my bed sometimes 😂), and I honestly take even more care over yours to ensure the best experience all around. This means leashing them EVERY TIME we go outside and BEFORE any doors are opened, giving them space if needed and around other dogs (not including my own if boarding/doggy day care), etc.

“I was a little hesitant about leaving my Shepherd mix but Aaryn really made me feel at ease with my decision. She was absolutely great with Ravenna and I know from updates throughout the day that my precious girl had a fun filled day. Aaryn is extremely knowledgeable, she really enjoys what she’s doing and the animals absolutely love her. I would DEFINITELY recommend her”

“Thank you so much! Love the pictures!”

“Misty and John were very kind to my girls. They were understanding when the one had a stress "incident" immediately upon arrival and they clearly made an effort to help ease her anxiety through the day (she's a total baby and anxious attachment type so new people and places take time for her to adapt to). I am eager to see if my girls grow comfortable enough to use them pretty regularly.”

“Chelsea really takes good care of Bella and we really appreciate her. Top notch!”

“Isa took such great care of our puppy! This was my first time using Rover and leaving my puppy with a sitter instead of a doggy daycare. Isa answered all of my questions about the process and gave me the chance to come meet her first. She was also very flexible as I had to book it sort of last minute and didn't have an exact time of when we would be picking up our puppy. Also our puppy was still finishing recovery from a recent surgery, and Isa was very understanding of this and made sure he got enough Rex. I really appreciated Isa's updates and pictures throughout the day, and I know our puppy had a lot of fun as he was very tired when he got home! Thank you again Isa, we will definitely bring our puppy back in the future!”

“Allison was the perfect person to take care of my shy pooch. She was calm and reassuring and he seemed very comfortable with her. She took him for a long walk, which he always enjoys. And she lives very close to the hotel I stay at. I’ll definitely use her on my next visit to St. Louis.”

About: Hi there! I’m Lilah 🤗 - a passionate and experienced dog lover. Although I have been in the corporate world for the past 11 years, I have also provided top-notch dog sitting services sporadically for over 20 years. My goal with this career change is to find a more meaningful existence and flexibility to spend quality time with my family. I absolutely adore spending time with my furry friends 🐶 I understand that leaving your beloved pup in someone else's care can be a daunting experience, but rest assured that I will treat your dog as if they were my own. I prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness above all else, ensuring they have a pawsome time while you're away. I focus on behavioral training, socialization, and providing both you and your pup with the best experience pawsible 🐾 I am well-versed in handling dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments, and I am more than happy to accommodate any specific needs or preferences your pup may have. I've lived with dogs my entire life. From Huskies, to Golden Retrievers and Yorkies, I lived and/or cared for them all. I currently have a wonderfully aloof 8 year old Rottweiler, a playful 3 year old Olde English Bulldog and a cat who loves his dog brothers. I am vastly familiar with dog psychology and behavior and have learned numerous training methods in my spare time. If you're looking for a dedicated, trustworthy, knowledgeable and compassionate dog sitter, I would be more than delighted to meet you and your fur baby. Feel free to reach out so we can get to know each other better. I can't wait to become a trusted and beloved companion for your dog 🐕‍🦺🥳🦴 I am transitioning into the pet care business and working on my schedule. As of now I am available weekday evenings, with more availability on the weekends. I have a fenced in backyard and partially finished basement with a pet area including crates and pens. Transportation is available for fun walks in forest park.

“Thank you for watching my shy boy, Sheesh! He was so calm and collected when I picked him up, and he seemed like he had a nice, comfortable time!”

About: I've had my own pets since 1991. I had a rabbit and dog in college and have learned over the decades how to best care for our friends. I've just retired from a busy career, so I know how important it is to find someone to care for your animals when you're away; even if it's just the gym or happy hour after work. I've fostered for several area rescues and know folks have a different idea of appropriate care. I only use fear free methods, because our animals need to know they can trust us. I've had young high energy dogs who need play and long walks and I've cared for my dogs in their last years when they needed additional care or special medical needs including pills, dressings, eye drops and carrying older dogs who aren't as mobile anymore. I would love to get to know your pets and help you give them the best life. I'm currently retired and searching for part time employment. I don't mind early or late night visits since our dogs don't have a 9 to 5 schedule. I do have an active social and volunteering schedule but it's flexible enough to accommodate your needs. I have cared for many dogs who need to be crated or who are door dashers and escape artists. I have a calm energy that helps put pets at ease. I'm a fan of high value treats to make the crate a special place. My personal dogs are crate trained but I know that's not for everyone.

About: I've been training dogs since 2014, but all work an no play makes life no fun. I'm wanting to enjoy dogs on a different level where the only milestones we have to reach are "miles walked" or "rabbits chased". That being said I'm very confident in my abilities to handle pullers and animal chasers. I love to play ball for hours (drool covered and all) or just relax and give belly rubs, which ever your pet prefers. I've even got a dog leash specially designed to go running with those high energy pups. Needless to say your dogs won't get bored with me. As a dog trainer Im lucky enough to set my own schedule so my availability is any time your pups may need. This includes most holidays, weekends and week days.

“Cooper loved his stay with Karen, as always! We decided to have Cooper go to a sitter very last minute so that we would be freed up for our moving day. Karen was very accommodating and flexible with pick up and drop off. Thanks, Karen! :)”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs all my life from my own dog and cat to my family and friends dogs. Family and friends have asked me to feed, walk, stop by for a pee break, and sit their pets. My mom currently has a puppy who I help train and sit so I know a lot about high value treats and can help train your pups if needed. I have also dog sat for senior dogs and know how much extra love and care they may need. I work remotely full time so am available to care for your pet during the work week and or on the weekends while you’re away! In my home, your pet will be treated like family! I work remotely, so I’ll be around to give them plenty of attention, playtime, and snuggles throughout the day. I make sure pets feel comfortable and safe, whether that means cozy spots to relax, regular potty breaks, or sticking to their usual routine for feeding, walks, and play. I live near Forest Park.

About: WashU graduate and lifelong lover of all small dogs. My household is fully vaccinated, and I will maintain proper social distancing when meeting :) I also offer professional pet photography PLEASE NOTE: Last minute bookings (<36hr notice) will be charged at holiday rate. Daycare = ~10 hour coverage Boarding = ~10-24 hour coverage ..... Hours beyond that may incur an additional fee. I am a professional photographer and can't resist taking pics of animals. So I will definitely send you a ton of pics when hanging out with your pup. Example album: https://bit.ly/2k1jpEL I am comfortable with all breeds of dogs and follow all special guidelines when taking care of your animals. I am also very experienced with special needs pets. I will try to understand your dog and its personality and motivations. Every dog is different, and it's important to treat them as individuals when taking care of them. I have loved many breeds of dogs, including temperamental rescue pit bulls and more boutique breeds like papillon, yorkie, maltese, etc. I am also cat friendly! I love cats. They're crazy lol. I own a business and work from home full time, so my availability is wide open. Any dates and times I am unavailable are marked well in advanced. My schedule is flexible, and I am happy to take repeat/daily dogs too. I live in a pet-free house with a fenced back yard + doggy door, and a large neighborhood to walk around in. My home is safe for your dog to explore, but I will never leave them unattended anywhere.

“Lisa’s daycare services have been excellent for my pup! I was eager to find a place where my dog, Laika, could interact with a small, familiar group of dogs more regularly since a large daycare environment would likely be overwhelming to her. Lisa has been super thoughtful and accommodating to both my pup and my own hectic schedule, and I can tell Laika is always eager to see her new friends when she goes to daycare.”

About: I grew up with dogs all my life-big and small. I love all animals and have had many different animals including snakes, tarantula, birds, cats other reptiles and of course dogs throughout my life. My friends have told me that I should work with animals because of my knowledge, how I teach and take care of animals. Friends come to me for advice about their animals. Not only do I love and respect animals I genuinely love and respect nature and the world. I'm retired so I have time for my animals and your animal babies too. Most of my time is spent with my grandsons and Anakin; my dog, outside doing yardwork or in one of many parks in St Louis. I walk my dog in my yard on leash or walk to the park down the street from my house, weather permitting. I can walk your dog the same way or come to your house to take care of your animal baby. I'm retired/disabled and have one dog to take care of at the moment. I'm at home most of the time so I have time and love for other people's pets too. The only other thing that keeps me busy are my 3 youngest grandsons who also love animals and I teach them to respect and to be kind to animals. *If you need a service but see in my calendar I'm not available you can message me because most of the days I'm not available is usually only for 3 to 4 hours during that day and I could possibly be available for what you need* I have one bird and I keep his cage clean, change his water regularly and make sure he has food. I have one dog at home that I take out on leash in my front yard, walk him as many days a week as possible to the park directly down the street from my house, I rub his belly, give him treats when he's a good boy and play with him with his toys. All the stuff I do for my animals, I would do for your animals as well.

“Kavita did a fabulous job looking after our dog! Highly recpmmended!”
