“Mariah really helped us out when my husband and I made a last minute day trip out of town. I haven’t had the chance to meet her in person since we had already left when she confirmed she could check on dog Jett, but we look forward to meeting Mariah and using her services again. Thank you Mariah!”
About: Looking for an experienced animal sitter or affordable daycare that is flexible? Woof, I am your gal! From 13 years of combined dog training and behavioral training, I may as well be an animal mind reader! My approaches to pet care are holistic and it doesn't get more organic than loving and working with animals. I've also had many years of experience with small animals, fish and reptiles. If you need a small sitter, I'm all yours! MEET & GREET: I do my meet and greets differently than most. I have TWO meet and greets. The first is with owners alone for a tour of my house, going over routines and any additional care and concerns. This is very helpful as exciting dogs barking can be overwhelming. The second meet and greet is at a basic place like a park or OUTSIDE of dog park. My schedule and routine is pretty flexible, yet still manageable and structured. My daycare hours are Mon-Fri from 8AM to 5:30PM, though I can work around your schedule only on those days. Boarding is available 7 days a week during the night with check in times anywhere 2PM to 7PM, checkouts 8AM next day unless specified otherwise (in the event I am unavailable with a week advance notice). Dog walks and dog check-ins are only Saturday evenings, various hours. BITE POLICY: I understand that accidents happen and I am equipped to handle a bite from a dog/cat as well as ensure the safety of animal to animal bites. If your pet bites me, another person or pet, I will immediately contact you with details of the event. I will report ALL bites to Rover. Depending on the situation, someone will need to pick up pet(s) within 6 hours of contact and bite. It is up to Rover to issue a refund depending on circumstances. You MUST book your request through Rover and MUST pay via Rover for them to ensure a refund. I will NOT refund if you have paid via CashApp, check, Venmo, cash, etc. if you are required to pick up your pet(s). If I assess the situation and feel it's risky to board/sit your pet I will decline future requests. NOTE: You MUST book/CONFIRM your requests via ROVER! When you send your requests to me, I will book it and you must confirm via Rover in order for me to watch your pets. Pending request will be denied of service. NOTE: Boarding is charged by the NIGHT. For example, if you request for me to board your pets Jan 8th thru Jan 17th, they MUST be picked up ON the 17th, not the next day on Jan 18th. Please factor in how late you will arrive and if it's the next day you will have to pay for that night. This works just like a hotel stay. You will be charged a $20 fee for each pet if you need to extend stays. NOTE: Please make sure your pets are free from fleas and parasites! Upon meet and greet provide proof of recent medication, vet summaries, and other remedies. I no longer provide daycare services, only boarding, walks, and check ins. I currently have 5 cats and 1 dog. Walking and at home check ins are anywhere from 1-3 hours Sat evenings. I will walk around neighborhood only if a safe and trusted area. I also will care for cat in home visits. All required is specific walking and care instructions.
“Sylvia was fantastic!! She was super flexible when my job pushed around my travel dates for a work trip. She made sure my cat was well taken care of and gave her all the love, treats and playtime her little heart desired. She took the time to get to know her and earn her trust, which is a big step for a scaredy kitty! Thank you Syl!!”
About: Ive had dogs since i was 13, i have over 2 years of professional animal care experience at animal facilities. All my pomeranians are seniors and are happy and healthy! Im very reliant and optimistic about what I do. Id love to care for your little one! I’m currently working part-time as a kennel attendant at a doggy daycare. Im mostly available during the day but not so much the night time. Regardless i am around animals 24/7! My dogs have a nice backyard where they play when they are let out. I will not be able to care for any other dogs at my own home, but Id love to care for yours in the comfort of your own home!
“Tara always does such an amazing job when checking in on our kitties. She loves everyone’s pets as her own and I feel so secure leaving my kitties behind when she comes to check on them! 100% recommend”
About: I grew up on a farm with a lot of animals to care for. I also have bottle fed and raised a puppy from day one. I’ve raised many kittens and older cats as well. I can administer medications if needed. I will play with them, take them for walks, love on them, whatever they need! I am a Registered Nurse so I care for pets on my days off! I work 3 nights a week so I have four available days usually! I have an 11 year old well trained black lab and a very friendly cat that loves dogs too! I will provide any care your animal needs.
“Working with Amy and Aaron was a wonderful experience. Amy picked up my cats from the airport and housed them overnight when I got stranded in a blizzard. They did it on only a few hours notice, provided exemplary care, and even delivered them to me when I finally arrived in town. I’d use Amy and Aaron again in a heartbeat.”
“Haley was amazing with our two kitties! We had some very detailed instructions and she followed everything to a T. She provided clear constant communication while we were away and we felt our kitties were in great hands. Would definitely book again, thank you Haley!”
About: I can not think of a time my house has not had a pet in it. I currently have 4 dogs of various sizes with the largest being my Irish Wolfhound. I have always loved animals and I love the interactions with them. I love helping out with others pets and making sure that the pets are always cared for. I work full time but will be available weekday evenings and all day on the weekends. In some circumstances I can do weekday things also. I currently have a fenced in yard in which my dogs play in daily. I also have two kennels, 1 for very large dogs and 1 for medium dogs.
About: I have always had people come to me to take care of their pets because to me they are family and they deserve that treatment. I am an athlete at SEMO so I don’t get to see animals often, but they are one of my most favorite things in the world. Besides school and sports they would be my main priority and it would mean a lot to take care of them when I am available. I can easily take care of your dog the way you would like me to, but if you feel the need for them to have extra care such as taking walks or playing catch I can do that as well.
About: I love animals, I have owned a pet my whole life and have enjoyed every bit of it. I have a heart made for animals and always want to give animals the best of love. I also love meeting new animals and would love to help you with your pets needs, playing with my dog is actually one of my favorite hobbies including running and walking with them. I also can bath or/and clip nails along with making sure they are fed the proper amount of food at the proper time of day. I’m also very organized when it comes to how often and how much of a distance my own dog needs to walk. I want to ensure that animals and their owners can trust me at all times. I’m currently attending college and can be very flexible throughout the week because 5 days out of the week I have a free afternoon! I am able to work around your schedule! I treat peoples pets like they are my own. I would be meeting at your home and would love for the pet to remain to feel so loved, safe, and comfortable.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
