“Ross did a great job with our two cats. He provided exactly the care we requested and spent time playing with our young cat to help her get out that pent up energy! He also provided superior communication. We greatly appreciated his sitting services”

“Amazing I really trusted my pet with her and my cat has some special care needed. Very communicative and helpful. Went above and beyond. Would definitely recommend”

“Phoebe was incredible! Provided detailed updates on how my cat was doing and made sure to spend quality time with him during each drop-in. She was very clear each day to provide an update on my cat’s upset stomach / health.”

“Highly recommend Stephen! He has taken care of my cat several times now while I am traveling and I know he will be well cared for by Stephen while I am gone. The text and photo updates are nice to see.”

“Abby is the sweetest!! She played with my cat Pasha every day and kept her fed and watered. She sent me tons of photos and was so quick to respond :) Pasha seemed so happy throughout Abby’s visits and I returned to a such happy cat! 100% will be booking Abby in the future.”

“Danielle is amazing with Zyra. She is a great communicator and provides us with pictures and videos each visit. Danielle is always on time and we never worry if she will show up as scheduled. She also goes above and beyond by bringing in packages without being asked to do so. We are so happy that we found her and cannot recommend her enough.”


“Kyani is such the tentative, meticulous, and most exceptional communicator. I’ll definitely be booking again in advance. Grateful for her today.”

“Once again, Emily did a great job with my pet. She took great care of my cat who had recently had a surgery and needed some special care. I highly recommend Emily to anyone looking for a sitter who cares about and understands animals!”

About: I have 14 years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I currently have cats of my own and previously had dogs, so I understand the unique needs, energy levels, and personalities of both. I offer dependable dog walks while you’re at work and attentive, loving care when you’re out of town. Your pets’ safety, comfort, and routine are my priority, and I treat every animal like they’re part of my own family. I work from home and make my own schedule, which allows me to be very flexible and consistent with pet care. Because of that, I’m able to fit walks, drop-ins, and extended visits easily into my daily and weekly routine. I’ve also worked remotely from clients’ homes in the past, so if your pet needs extra attention while you’re out of town, I can spend extended time there while still handling my work responsibilities. This flexibility allows me to prioritize your pet’s routine, exercise, and comfort without feeling rushed. At this time, I do not bring pets into my own home. All care is provided in my client’s home so your pet can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. When caring for pets in your home, I follow your specific instructions closely regarding feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and any household routines. I make sure your pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while keeping their environment clean and secure. My goal is to minimize stress and make your time away as smooth as possible for both you and your pet.
About: When I was in first grade, I fancied myself a dog-trainer, and I helped a family friend "train" their rescue pup (we'll never know if I was actually helpful or not). Since then, I have loved love taking care of dogs, whether it's going for a walk around the block, teaching my own dog new tricks, or giving good belly rubs. Most of my experience comes from caring for my dog at home and petsitting for family and friends. I'm a grad student with a flexible schedule these days, so whether it's a lunch-time drop in, evening walk, or petsitting for the weekend, I'm happy to help out. I can provide petsitting/drop-in/walking care in your neighborhood, home, or wherever your pup is most comfortable. I would just ask that you let me know whatever makes your pup unique (reactivities, favorite foods, lovable quirks), so that I can take care of them as best I can.
“Hayley is great. We just met. And she just met JP. She was aware enough to give JP her space because JP is very shy and sometimes scared. I definitely want to hire Hayley again. I will be requesting those dates soon.”

“Autumn really came through in a pinch and went above and beyond for us! Having to be away from home unexpectedly was stressful but knowing my cats were safe and well cared for was such a relief! I would call on her again without hesitation. 🥰”

“Caroline has done drop ins with my dog quite a few times now! She has been great updating with any concerns and has gotten along great with my dog. She was very patient with my dog when she first started doing drop ins as she can sometimes be a little anxious with new people but she warmed up quick after our meet and greet and by the end of the first drop in (which she stayed longer for!) Would recommend, she’s been very good at following any instructions I have, and after several drop ins I definitely trust her a lot!”

About: I have had dogs my whole life and have always loved stepping up to take care of them. Even as a child, I loved taking our family pug Olivia on walks and feeding her breakfast and dinner. I worked for a summer as a dog walker in Chicago, working with clients whose dogs had a variety of routines. Some pups had very specific routes that they needed to go on for their walks, and some needed to be trained to stop at crosswalks or walk on a specific side of the sidewalk. Now I'm a med student who loves to explore the city and all the beautiful outdoor spaces we have in St. Louis. I have had a lot of experience with all different kinds of dogs, and I can't wait to get to know your fur baby! My school schedule changes by the week, but I am pretty reliably free from noon to 1pm during the week. Besides Wednesday afternoons, I have lots of free time during regular working hours to take your pet on a walk or check in on them at home, and I am also free during the day all weekend besides Sunday mornings. I have experience with all different personalities of dogs, including dogs like rescues who don't always like strangers or don't react well to different training techniques. I will always respect your dog's boundaries with physical touch/space, volume levels, eye contact, play time, and anything else that they are sensitive to.
“Brooklyn gave me peace of mind that my cats were well taken care of while on my trip. She’s friendly, diligent and provides great daily updates. She’ll be my first choice in booking in the future!”

Kings Oak pet parents share their Rover experiences
Carolyn is an amazing pet sitter/walker. I have a difficult pup with a lot of anxiety. Carolyn is so patient with her and does such a great job reading her body language and mood. Carolyn knows exactly how to interact with my pup to give her time to potty and as much attention as she’s willing to take. Treats definitely help. Carolyn is also reliable and communicative, which I really appreciate. The photos, videos, and other updates give me peace of mind while I’m at work. Highly recommend Carolyn if you’re looking for a pet sitter.

Niko LOVED his time with Tabitha! She followed his routine and house instructions as directed and loved on him so much. Each visit I got a detailed review of their time together and adorable pictures of their activities. I am grateful that he was super social with her and I was so happy each day when I got the check in notes. Would absolutely book Tabitha again and recommend her to friends!

We have booked with Harper for a few years now and she always takes good care of Lucy the cat and Apollo the bird while we’re gone. She goes above and beyond to ask if there’s anything she can do to make the pets more comfortable while we’re gone and she puts up with Lucy’s sassiness. I would definitely book with Harper if you haven’t already!

Hannah is the best! She responded to my booking in a timely manner and sent updated pictures of Benji every visit. My pup is super energetic and at times a bit roudy, she had no issues accomodating. I also had an issue on return where I was unable to communicate because of my phone was broken. Hannah did a great job finishing the booking and I was able to return and access my loft.

Violet was great! She did everything I asked her too do and some more. While I told her to just put the dirty cat food plates in the sink, she also washed them. She also took out the trash with the cat litter. I can tell my cats enjoyed their time with her in the daily pictures she sent me. I would book her again.
