Abby did a fantastic job looking after my cat Vinny! Vinny is usually slow to warm up to people but she quickly approached Abby to cuddle. Abby captured great photos for Vinny's check in that reassured me Vinny was happy and captured her personality. Thank you, Abby!

Mae was extremely communicative and definitely went above and beyond when caring for my three kitties! They fed, played with, and made sure boxes were clean for my babies. My cats looked very happy in the photos they sent, which was much appreciated. I would definitely book again!

About: I volunteer at the APA animal shelter where I walk and play with all types of dogs. I have also taken care of a wide variety of animals including lizards, fish, kittens (2 weeks old), puppies, and turtles! I’m currently working part-time at a restaurant so I have plenty of time to spend time with your animals and make sure they are well taken care of! I give all pets love and affection with different pets needing different things! For dogs I love to take them for walks and give them lots of belly scratches, and for cats I love to play with them and if they like, pet them!

About: I have loved and cared for dogs my entire life. I have raised my own dogs and have helped friends, neighbors, and family with theirs for years. I am comfortable with all ages, sizes, and personalities, from energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I am dependable, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. Whether it is walks, feeding, playtime, medication, or simply keeping them company, I treat every dog as if they were my own. You can expect consistent communication while you are away. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I am currently fully available and have a very flexible schedule. Pet care easily fits into my daily routine, and I can accommodate weekdays, weekends, overnights, and extended stays. Your dog will receive consistent attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. I am especially available for in home sitting, which allows pets to stay comfortable in their own environment. I have a secure, fenced patio (with designated turf potty areas, and one friendly, well socialized dog. I am happy to follow your dog’s normal routine, including crating if needed, feeding schedules, medication, and exercise preferences. While I can host in my home, I prefer sitting in your home so your dog can remain in a familiar, stress free setting. I am respectful of your space, attentive to detail, and focused on keeping your pet safe, calm, and well cared for at all times.

About: I have a 5 year old 100lb staffordshire terrier named Kaido that I raised and trained since he was 6 weeks old. I crate trained, house trained, recall trained, socialized, and lead trained him myself. I have also Kaido to help work with other dogs that are not well socialized or have anxiety issues. I am currently working two part time jobs as a research coordinator so I am typically able to be flexible with whatever schedule is requested. While my apartment does not have a fenced yard, I do have a large dog crate if needed and have knowledge of many dog parks and trails in the St Louis area.

About: I’ve had cats all my life and currently own two of my own cats. Many of my friends have larger dogs, and have relied on me to help check on them while they are out of town and take them for walks and have play dates. I love all kinds of dogs and cats! I am currently working from home on Mondays and Fridays, but that will change to working from home on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday in the next couple of weeks. My nights are mostly free and am able to be flexible with my schedule. I will make sure your pet is comfortable, well fed and hydrated, and give them the playtime and snuggles they need! I make sure litter boxes and yards are clean and clean up any accidents that may happen.

Brooke was wonderful! I had to find a new pet sitter at the last minute because my super-senior cat got put on some new medication for the first time and my previous sitter didn’t have any experience with pilling a cat. Brooke jumped right in and never hesitated. Since my girl had recently been really sick I was really, really nervous to leave her for a weekend but Brooke was so reassuring and took such good care of her that it made me relax. I will 100% use Brooke any time I travel moving forward!!

About: Since I was a little girl, I’ve known I was meant to work with animals. It’s more than a passion—it’s my purpose. Pets have always brought me peace, joy, and fulfillment, whether they were mine or someone else’s. Over the years, I’ve raised everything from Great Danes to Pit-Husky mixes. I currently care for my special-needs English Mastiff, Kayser, and have supported senior and rescue dogs—each requiring patience, trust, and personalized care. Motivated by my commitment to animal well-being, I returned to school to pursue my dog training certification. I also hold certifications in animal welfare, pet CPR, and first aid. My approach is rooted in positive reinforcement and a strong belief in creating an informed, compassionate pet guardian community. My mission is to be a bridge between animals and their guardians—prioritizing not just obedience, but behavioral health, emotional enrichment, and the deeper bond that comes from truly understanding and nurturing the whole animal. Pet care is a part of my everyday routine, so I’ve learned to build my schedule around it. I’m usually up early to handle morning feedings, walks, and check-ins, which leaves me available mid-morning through early afternoon for appointments, training sessions, or visits. I also keep some flexibility in the evenings and weekends for clients who need extra support or who have specific routines for their pets. Because animals are part of my daily life, fitting in care—whether mine or someone else’s—comes naturally. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect and attention I’d want in my own. I stick closely to the routines the pet is familiar with—whether that’s feeding times, walk schedules, medication, or playtime—because consistency helps them feel secure. I take my time to build trust with each animal, using gentle handling and positive reinforcement. I also pay close attention to their behavior and energy, so I can catch any signs of stress or discomfort early. My goal is always to keep pets calm, comfortable, and happy in their own environment while giving families peace of mind knowing their pets are in caring, capable hands.

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.

Jennifer did a great job taking care of my cat. I was out of town for a few days and needed someone to check in on my cat while I was gone. Jennifer was quick with her communications, friendly, caring, and easy to work with. I'm very happy with the experience and would definitely ask her to look after my cat again!

My 2 dogs loved Abigail immediately; her calm and grounded energy was great for both the fur babies and this nervous mama. It was my first time using Rover and Abigail made it a smooth and easy experience. Her friendly yet professional demeanor was appreciated.

Emily was great in coming to check-in on Leo a little short notice due to a trip I was on and some changes in plans in who was checking on him. As always Emily was super communicative and helpful 😊 I am so glad she was available to watch him.
