5. Nicholas K.
“Nick was excellent. We needed someone on short notice to take our energetic dog for long walks for 4 days while my husband recouped from a muscle sprain. Nick was responsive, on time each day, sent Rover Cards documenting the map and time of his walks. Great guy. Our dog took to him like a dog takes to a bone. Will definitely use Nick again.”

“Brad is a fabulous pet sitter. He communicated with us daily, so we knew our beloved Marley was in good hands. He was eager to take her on daily walks and she loved every minute. In addition to taking care of Marley, he took care of our home. Everything was exactly the way we left it. Brad was extremely conscientious while taking care of our pet and home. We highly recommend Brad as a valued addition to the Rover family.”

8. Darin K.
About: I’ve taken care of and raised dogs since I was young. From family pets to pack type dogs on farms that I worked with. I walk and play with my dog River a ton everyday. We typically walk 2-4 miles a day if the weather is nice. He is wonderful with other dogs and has tons of friends, from puppies to older dogs. I have plenty of crate training and on leash experience. I can also separate the animals easily without crates if needed. I am currently available for full time pet care. Let me know what works best for you. Weekends are usually the easiest for me, but no preference overall. Scheduling further in advance is preferred but not necessary. I’m typically up and walking my dog by 7:30 am so any routine or communication works fine with me. Typically I wake up and let the dogs outside immediately. Then play a little, then it’s breakfast time according to the dogs’ feeding schedule. After breakfast I usually relax and pet the dogs awhile before taking them on a walk that’s best suited for them. I live close to Tower Grove park and all the dogs including my own love it. I also have a nice fenced in yard for them.
9. Sarah C.
About: I have had pets my whole life, growing up my family has had at least 4 dogs, 3 cats and other animals as well. I love all fur babies and am well skilled in taking care of them. I’m working part time so I’d have lots of time to spend and play with your fur baby. Very flexible schedule so any time you need me works. I have a huge fenced in backyard and a super friendly boxer who loves to play with other dogs. She gets lots of love, playtime, treats, bones, and toys.
10. Dannielle C.
“If I had to describe Dannie with 1 word, I'd say she's exceptional. My GSD is not at all friendly towards strangers. Before I knew it, Dannie and my GSD formed a friendship. I'm very uncomfortable boarding my GSD. Dannie is the ONLY person I trust. I'm going on vacation next month for almost a week. I'm so happy. I would've cancelled my trip if Dannie couldn't dogsit for me. I've seen them together; Dannie definitely has a way with dogs. I love watching my GSD and Dannie together. I would highly recommend her. Thanks to Dannie, I can enjoy my trip without worries.”
11. Avi S.
“Avi is the type of individual that won’t just watch over your best friend, but will also be dedicated and loving towards your pet. She is amazing with animals, patient, kind, and has many different qualities. Knowing and seeing how she is around animals, she will always make sure your best friend is taken care of. She can help calm their anxiety, give lots of cuddles and playtime, and if needed she can help with training. She has helped me train my two dogs and it is life changing. If you want to trust anyone with your pet, it would be her.”
12. Jasmin L.
“Jasmine is a great with all my animals. I can trust her and don’t have to worry about them while I’m gone. Highly recommend her and will forever use her!”

15. Carrie K.
About: Hello pet parents! A little bit about me I’ve been an animal lover since I was able to talk. I’ve always had a strong connection with them. I’m a lovable, caring,patient, and trustworthy person. I realize trusting a stranger to care for your fur baby is beyond stressful, especially in this crazy world we live in. I can assure you that when in my care he/she/they will be safe, and well taken care of. Seeing their faces light up when I walk in the door is priceless! Thank you for considering me to care for your baby! I am home during the week, and available most weekends. When I board I am home for the entire stay! No pets are left alone. We have a large fenced in yard, offer daily walks, lots and lots of love, treats ( If owner approves it) petting and plenty of talks!

18. Abigail F.
About: I've had pets my whole life dogs, cats, Guinea pigs, and fish. I've done pet sitting/ pet check-ins for multiple different familys on several different occasions walking dogs has always been something I like to do whether it be my own dogs or family members or someone else I just really enjoy being around animals. I have 3 dogs of my own 8 in my house, 4 cats of my own, and I work at a doggy daycare during the day! I promise to love your babies as if they were my own and we will have the best time together! Currently I am doing DoorDash and helping care for my Dad, so I can be pretty flexible on scheduling time to spend with your fur babies! I do not offer pet care in my home as all of my pets have varying temperaments and anxiety levels, also my Dad is a disabled veteran and I like to keep stress levels down for him. I would love to take your pups out for a walk or do check ins/house sitting with your babies!
