“Jill was amazing! My cats loved her and she was so sweet with them! I felt so comfortable having her watch them and would love to have her watch them again in the future!”
2. Catherine B.
“Catherine is amazing pet whisperer. While at her University, she was an integral part of the “Puppy Kindergarten” team. This program was designed to manage and help train future service dogs. Her family is located in NC and have 3 labs. Catherine was a huge part of the care and training. When she moved to St. Louis the 1st thing she wanted to do was get 2 cats. She is a loving pet parent. If you are looking for a mature, dependable and loving person to care for your babies, look no further!”
3. Lauren B.
“This was the first time leaving my baby and I was nervous, but even from the first meet and greet, I knew Lauren would be a great friend to Lucy. She did an amazing job, updating me, connecting with Lucy during her visits and adjusting her schedule to suit our needs. She took the time to prepare Lucy a yummy dinner and play with her favorite toys. Lucy adored her and was happy and healthy during my trip. I’m so glad we had Lauren to help and will definitely be coming back in the future!”

12. Yuliya K.
About: I am a student with free time and a love for animals! I’ve taken care of rodents, cats, dogs since I was a teen and I currently have 3 cats of my own. I love getting to know each animal’s unique personality and helping them feel comfortable. I am comfortable giving medications (one of my cats has special needs) and/or following other specific instructions. Please reach out with any questions! I have a flexible schedule, but sometimes limited during the day based on classes, almost always free on weekends. Please reach out with specific inquiry! I live in a two bedroom apartment with 3 of my own cats. The building hallways are indoors, no risk of your pet running out into the street.
13. Nichole S.
“She did a great job looking after my rabbits. She was very attentive and not afraid to reach out if there were any questions or concerns. I would definitely book her again!”
14. Tara D.

15. Taylor Y.
“Taylor was great! This was her first time cat-sitting with me, and it seemed that my cats warmed up to her quickly. I appreciated the updates throughout the day and the pictures.”
16. Catelyn R.
“Catelyn was amazing with my two elderly cats. Even the antisocial one loved her! She sent me daily updates with pictures. Catelyn was wonderful and made my vacation stress-free.”
17. Carl W.
“Carl W is a caring and responsible person. He took care of my dog when I was away and walked him when I had to work. He is dependable and if he says he will be there you can believe he will be there.”
18. Kierston K.
“I left my very sweet but shy 10 month old kitten with Kierston for 10 days while I was away for my wedding. Kierston set up a FaceTime meeting beforehand to address any questions and was very transparent - introduced me to her kids and showed me her house and cat. Kierston did pick up and drop off for me which was super helpful. While I was gone she sent me daily photos and any updates on my kitty's behavior. It was so comforting to know my kitty was with someone who loves animals and who took such good care of her. Thanks Kierston!!”
19. Taylor D.
“Taylor was so sweet and kind, and took excellent care of our senior kitty, including oral meds. We would be more than happy to book her again (and our cat would be, too)!”
